As I went to open the door, Yeonjun stood right behind me ready to pounce on whoever was on the other side of the door if needed. Slowly I opened the door only to be met with the view of my front porch. Huffing in annoyance I turned around and almost got a heart attack.

Yeonjun was at the back of the room talking to Taehyun, while Jungkook, Beomgyu, Hoseok and a few others were sitting on the couch and chatting.

"Annyeong noona! Noona na gieoghae? " Huening-Kai said standing right next to me.

(Hello noona! Do you remember me?)

Never. Never in my entire life had I been so shocked.

"Ne Huening. Naneun dangsin-eul gieoghabnida. Seolmyeonghaejusil su iss-eusingayo....." I trailed off pointing towards the group of boys in my living room.

(Yes Huening. I remember you. Can you explain.....)

"Ah ne. Ulineun agmaibnida. Geulaeseo dangsin-i mun-eul yeoneun dong-an ulineun chogosog-eul sayonghaessseubnida " he replied.

(Roughly translates to 'Ah yes. We are demons so we used super speed when you opened the door)

"You... You all are demons?" I whispered in shock.

The boy must have realized what he said because the next minute he was running away from the spot. Processing everything I walked up to Jungkook and grabbed his arm. Ignoring his complains I pulled him to my bedroom and locked the door.

"Where is it?" I asked him as my eyes searched his body.

"Where is what?" he asked.

"The necklace". 

"Ok.... are you talking about this?"he said, pulling out a silver chain he would always wear. But as he pulled out the chain I spotted it.

"I meant this" I said pulling out the other chain.

Like Yeonjun's, it had a crystal on it. But unlike Yeonjun's bright blue crystal, Jungkook's was a dark brown with red at the ends. The same color as his hair. Looking up into his eyes, I noticed how terrified he looked. Who wouldn't be? He'd hidden a huge part of his life from me. Me, his best friend.

"You.... your a demon" I whispered, backing away from him.

"Ashley..." he whispered, hands reaching out to hold me.

"You all are demons" I said, eyes open in disbelief.

"Why don't I know about this?" I questioned.

"We.... We wanted to keep you safe. We didn't want to involve you in this mess".

"But you knew.... You knew that sooner or later Yeonjun was going to come to kill me. You could have told me! I would have been prepared! Do you have any clue how scared I am of Yeonjun?! Do you have any idea?! Yet whenever he's around me I can't stop myself from being attracted to him. All this while you knew what was happening and you left me in the dark. I had to bury that pain in me because I thought that you would get hurt if I revealed anything to you. But you were a bloody demon yourself! Tell me Jungkook! Tell me how the hell am I supposed to believe a word that comes out of your mouth after this?! How?!" I yelled, tears streaming down my face.

I didn't care that everyone could hear me. My best friend, someone that I had always trusted, had lied to me. He had kept me in the dark even though he could see I was suffering.

(Taehyun POV)

I was talking to Yeonjun hyung about the demons that had attacked. As we spoke, his attention shifted to something happening behind me. I turned to see Ashley dragging Jungkook to what I suppose is her room.

"Hwag-inhaeya hanayo?" I heard Yeonjun hyung say.

(Should I check?)

"Waeyo? Dangsin-eun geunyeoleul jug-ileo wassseubnida. Dangsin-eun geunyeoui namja chinguga anibnida" I replied

(Why? You came to kill her.  You are not her boyfriend)

He nodded and so we continued our conversation.

Moments later, Ashley's yells could be heard. Something about how no one told her about demons. It was muffled so we couldn't hear properly. But the next words that came were crystal clear.

"Do you have any idea how scared I am of Yeonjun?! Do have any idea?!".

Yeonjun hyung visibly froze.

" She's scared of me?" He whispered to himself.  Everyone present in the room were now staring at him.

"Geunyeoneun dangsin-eul dulyeowohaeyahabnida hyung. Dangsin-eun geunyeoleul jug-yeoya gieog?" I said.

(She's supposed to be scared of you hyung. Remember you have to kill her?)

But at that moment it didn't look like he cared about what I had said. Looking into his head I could see him beating himself up. Rushing past me he knocked on the door, asking for Ashley to open up. I stood behind him, watching him lose it and break down the door. Rushing in, he headed straight for Ashley. She was on her knees, crying bitterly.

I walked over to Jungkook who had a pained look on his face. Looking into his head, I nodded. She now knew that all of us were demons.

We watched as Yeonjun hyung pulled her into her arms, caressing her face and whispering in her ears. As he pulled away he placed a kiss on her head and asked her if she was okay. At that moment it was clear to me. No matter how tough Yeonjun is, he was ready to break down all his walls for Ashley.

Because no matter how much he tried to deny it, he was in love with her.
