Deeper into Darkness | ChanHoMin

seungmin lay in his bed, his toys in his arms and the blanket pulled over his head.

he felt awful, he couldn't pinpoint what was going on in his head but either way it was making him feel so much guilt and anger. he missed them.

he ate breakfast with them but they said they had important work to do and they had been gone for most of the day. he wanted them to come back and give him more of the attention they gave him before they left.

he looked up when he heard the front door opening and sat up in bed, pulling the cover off him. footsteps made their way to the bathroom while another set of footsteps stopped outside his door. when the locks slowly came undone, he clambered out of bed quickly.

minho opened the door, smiling at seungmin as he ran over to hug him.

minho enjoyed that a lot, the poor boy was completely unaware of what they'd done just previous.

"wh-where's channie hyung?"

minho took him out of the room to where chan was sitting on the edge of the bath, now in black cargo pants and a black muscle shirt, his boots still on but a large gash on his forearm where he was using tweezers to get glass out of the wound.

"what happened?!"

"don't worry about that pup."

seungmin tilted his head as he looked at the black coat on the floor, then the matching one that minho was wearing, as well as the matching cargo pants and boots, exactly what they wore when they went to the warehouse and when he first met them.

he looked at minho.

"d-did you...."

"did we what sweetheart?"

seungmin started to tear up, what was upsetting him was that he was more worried about the idea of them having someone else to need than he was about the fact that another innocent person could be about to lose their life like he did.

"did you take someone?" he asked quietly, his voice wavering.

"oh no, we didn't take him baby, we took something from him."

"wh-what did you take?"

"something very important." minho chuckled.

"it's almost like... he can't live without it..." chan added on, smirking.

seungmin looked between them, his brows furrowed.

"i'm confused."

"you won't be soon baby."

seungmin leaned his head on minho's shoulder as chan treated and dressed his arm, wrapping it up in a bandage.

when he was done, he stood up, coming over and pulling seungmin close to him, hugging him tightly against his chest.

"would you like to see what we took? it will be a lovely little surprise for you."

seungmin looked up with a little smile and nodded softly, holding onto chan's hand.

chan took him out of the bathroom and downstairs, towards the basement door.

seungmin immediately tensed up, a lot had happened down there and even seeing the door made him feel sick with worry and tension. he clung onto minho's hand as chan unlocked it, opening it up slowly with a small smirk.

"here." minho whispered in his ear before putting something over seungmin's eyes.

"i can't wait to see what you think baby."

seungmin held onto minho's arm tightly as he was guided down the stairs and round the corner at the bottom.

there was a weird tension in the room, a heavy, uncomfortable feeling lingering that he couldn't put his finger on. he stayed tense and nervous as minho whispered to him.
