Killing me softly (Sangwoo x Reader)

Killing me softly

I watch as he sleeps soundly beside me. Despite all the crime and misfortune he's been through, he still manages to fall asleep so easily.

I wasn't tired, so I couldn't just fall asleep beside him, and if I did he'd just hurt me. Saying something like 'You're an idiot to let your guard down around me'.

I let out a sigh, looking down at my ankles. Last time it took months for them to heal, and within those month I fell for this narcissist.

I look down at him again admiring his good looks. I could see how people would fall for him so easily. He really did have a handsome face that could swoon any girl or guy.

I wanted to touch him, but knew I couldn't. Not when he was sleeping. His temper was short and easily set off. If I woke him up, he'd kill me.

"H-hello? Someone-agh! Someone help!" The woman downstairs calls out in a bloodcurdling voice, terrifying me.
"Ple-agh-ase... Anyone!" She continues.

Then a heavy weight is lifted from the bed and Sangwoo walks out the room, with a horrifying look in his eyes. I knew all too well what that look meant and I shoved my head under a pillow, hopping to drown the sounds to come.

"N-no-aghh! P-please I'll do anything, please! I-I have family at home an-aghh!" The woman screams, making me clench the pillow harder. I wanted the screams to stop...I didn't want to hear her in pain, knowing that it was my fault she was here.

"AGHH-ghaa!" She continued to scream over and over. My brain went numb as it got dizzy and fatigue to the amount of pressure I put on it.

It was then that I felt a hand touch my shoulder softly. I open my eyes under the pillow as my mind came back to the current. My grip around the pillow loosened to which Sangwoo removed from my head.

I look up at him with tears in my eyes. He had blood around his hands and face. I wanted to shudder in fear, knowing that the blood belonged to her. My chin began to quiver, causing my face to scrunch up.

He cups my cheeks with a concerned look in his eyes. I rest my hands upon his arms as he pulls me close to his forehead.

"I'm sorry you had to listen to that." He closes his eyes, preying with me.
"Do you forgive me?" He says softly.

As a reply, I nod slowly, feeling the blood on his arms drip onto my bare thighs.

He takes me into his arms and hugs me tightly, pulling my legs and arms into his chest as he sat on the bed. He began stroking my head, whispering sweet things into my ears.

"I hate this... I hate this fucking place." He says.
"So please, I'm begging you to not leave me..." His voice began to crack as tears started to swell in his eyes.

I look up, curious at the liquid that spilled from his eyes. This wasn't my first time seeing him break down. Though it saddens me just how messed up he is. I couldn't leave him. I'm someone special to him.

I wriggle out of his hug, standing on my knees. Trying to catch his breath, he looks up at me with innocent eyes as I cupped his cheeks. I lean down and kiss his eyes, rubbing the tears away with my thumbs.

"Sangwoo...I promise with my life...I'll never leave your side, okey?" When I removed my lips he looks up at me, shocked at the honest words that came from my mouth.
"Never..." I whisper again.

He rests his head in my chest, recollecting himself from the sad state he was in. He looks back up and smiles.

"Okey." He whispers.
"I love you."

My heart drops from my chest and sinks to my stomach when hearing those words. I loved him too, but by him saying it out loud felt unreal.

It really made me rethink everything, and In the outcome the only thing I regret was leaving him. I would do anything for this man... I would let him do anything to me.

If he needed someone to hate, I would be that person...if he needed someone to be violent with, I would be that person. Even if he needed someone to help kill an innocent life... I would be that person.

I just don't want him to reject me. I don't want to be anywhere but beside him. He makes me feel; he makes me feel wanted and needed.

"I...I love you too, Sangwoo." I reply, closing my eyes and feeling his warmth.
