Losing Game

I stare at his smile which for me feel likes an eternity all onto itself. It's so easy to lose myself in it and to lose sense what's going on around me.

But that blissful moment is snatched away from me when I hear a scurry of hurried footsteps and worried, clamouring voices.

"Check down here!" One of them calls out to the others who quickly follow.

Yeosang leads the pack of wild beasts... I mean men and sits himself by Hongjoong who is obviously worse for wear.

"How did you guys get out?" I ask when Hongjoong's attention is pulled away from me and onto Yeosang.

Seonghwa rolls his eyes and jerks a finger in San's direction. I look to San who is always wearing his smile proudly on his face. He looks eager to tell me his tale of woe.

"I had one of your bobby pins that you leave lying around under my tongue." He looks me in the eye for my approval. Other than the fact that it's gross, he did well. "And when nobody was looking my way, I bent it with my teeth and started working away at the binds."

Well, he has my approval. "That's pretty creative. How did you get everyone else out?"

"I broke my chains..." Wooyoung mutters under his breath.

"Yeah, ok." Mingi retorts. "And I ate a Unicorn on the way here."

"We'll just say it was a coordinated team effort," Yunho explains with a shudder.

"I will never speak of the incident again!" Jongho claims.

Maybe I don't want to know how they all got out then.

"Y/N, do you have anything I need to tend to?" Yeosang asks without looking my way.

"I'm spick and span. Don't got nothing wrong with me." I flip my hair back with flair to avoid bringing up any serious topics I don't want to talk about right now.

"Bullshit." Joong spits at me. "She's been dragged and knocked around just like the rest of us. Make sure she's ok."

I glare at Hongjoong who doesn't look too pleased I tried to avoid any medical attention. But I know that once Yeosang starts cleaning me up, he'll start asking questions like 'who's blood is this?' 'why do you have these bruises here?' 'How serious are these burn marks and why is some of your hair missing?'

The moment I sit in front of good old Doc, he does in fact ask all those questions. "I was saving my ass." Is all I respond with.

Hongjoong sighs. "The blood is most likely her parent's blood. The bruises are from her being dragged. Burns aren't too bad I think and she's missing hair cuz she had to pull it out."

"Why did she pull it out?"

"I'm right here- just ask me yourself."

"The adults are talking. She needed the hairband that was in her hair."

Yeosang puts his fingers to the spot where my hair is now sparse. "Is it tender here?"

I wince a bit under his cold touch. "Yes."

He nods. "Figured. You scalped yourself here. It's gonna take a long time for the hair to grow back."

"I'll just cover up that spot..." I mutter to myself.

"Good luck." Yeosang huffs.

1 week later

We all ended up heading back to the compound as soon as we got temporarily fixed up by Yeosang and took a check through the building to make sure we weren't going to be ambushed or trapped at all.
