It was 3 am, and I got woken up by numerous missed calls from Eric and the guys. Eventually I woke up from their calls and texts; but unfortunately, Sunghoon woke up as well.
"What's wrong, Jihyun?" Sunghoon turns his body and places his head on me, hugging my body.
"Hold on." I say.
I dial Younghoon's phone and he picks up immediately.
"Jihyun! Finally. Sunwoo's drunk and he keeps drinking and drinking, he got injured by glass and he won't listen to any of us. Please come over, we think you're the only one he will listen to. He's not doing well." Younghoon frantically says, and I can hear shouts in the background.
"I'm on my way." I immediately say and hang up.
"What's wrong?" Sunghoon sits up and frowns, getting worried.
"It's Sunwoo. The guys said he's injuring himself and he's drinking." I get out of bed and put on a hoodie.
"Can you please drive me there?" I ask Sunghoon.
"Of course." He gets out of bed and throws on a sweater, as it was pretty chilly outside.
"Jake's probably downstairs with Jay hyung playing games. Let's go." He says and grabs his car keys.
We both head downstairs quietly, tiptoeing our way so that we don't wake the other guys up. As Sunghoon expected, Jay and Jake were in the living room playing games. We walk up to them and they notice us; giving us confused looks.
"Why are you guys up?" Jay asks us.
"Something happened. I need to drive Jihyun somewhere. Will you guys be awake later to open the door?" Sunghoon asks them.
"You already know the answer to that." Jake snickers. "I hope everything's okay."
"Yeah, drive safe." Jay says.
We put on our shoes and get into Sunghoon's car. I put in Sunwoo and the guys' address into Sunghoon's phone so he can follow the directions there. We put on our seatbelts and he immediately drives off, following the directions from GPS.
I bit the inside of my mouth, feeling more anxious by the minute. Sunwoo and I aren't friends, but still; I care about his well being. Those yells and shouts did not sound good, based on the phone call with Younghoon. The guys all seemed fairly panicked and worried.
"Are you okay, Jihyun?" Sunghoon asks me softly.
"I'm fine. I'm just worried." I gulp.
He places his right hand on my thigh, keeping his left hand on the stirring wheel. He gives my thigh a gentle squeeze to assure me.
"Everything will be okay. I promise." He says.
"Thanks, Sunghoon." I give him a small grin that was half fake.
I was so anxious and worried. I thought things were going fine with Sunwoo.. I thought he was doing perfectly fine. I don't know why this popped up. He's never even drank before.
"You aren't mad at me, right?" I ask Sunghoon. "Sunwoo and I used to have a thing.." I mumble.
"I'm not mad, dummy. Why would I be?" He chuckles softly. "He's your friend. You have a right to be worried about him."
"Thanks so much, Sunghoon." I reach over and quickly kiss his cheek.
We finally get to their house.
"I'll wait in the car. Good luck, okay? Text me if anything." Sunghoon tells me and gives me a kiss.
"Thanks. I'll be right out if I can."
I get out of the car and I walk onto the front porch, banging on the door. The door immediately opens and I'm greeted by a worried Hyunjoon. Panic was written all over his face.
