It had been five years.

Five years since you broke up with Sehun.

Five years of healing and bringing up yourself.

Your relationship with Sehun was classified as a “detrimental one”  according to everyone you were close with. Those who actually knew.

While you were dating Sehun you had always brushed away their comments saying that you were fine when in fact your mental health was spiraling.

A shaky breath fell from your lips as you felt your entire relationship flood back in your head tensing Jungkook beside you

The constant drinking, the crying, the never showing up.

The feeling of remorse was coming back to you.

This was what happened whenever Sehun was in your line of sight.

The pain coming back to you.

Right as your eyes welled up with fresh tears, you turned to see Jungkook's gaze on you.

Those dark brown hues that you get lost in locked with your teary ones.

Memories from your past relationship flew through your head. You could still picture your relationship with Sehun even after all these years.

While you both were together, you busy with your training, Sehun had developed an awful drinking problem that had started getting out of hand.

Sehun sometimes wouldn’t come back home.

Nights of waiting turned into nights of crying.

You remembered all too well the night everything had shattered.

<<flashback>>

It was the night of your third anniversary of you being with Sehun and you wanted to prepare a nice dinner for him and a night of relaxation and romance with one another.

The night before you had sat down with him and had a serious conversation with him.

“Se, tomorrow I don’t want you getting drunk. It’s our anniversary and I want it to be special. So please don’t. And please don’t leave me alone,” you had grasped his hands, your fingers interlocking.

His brown eyes softened at the sight of your intertwined hands.

He bent down and placed the gentlest kiss on your knuckles.

“I would never do that to you, especially on our anniversary,” he lifted one of his hands and brushed the back of it against your cheek.

“Okay,” you whispered as you leaned your forehead against his.

Your noses brushed against each other while Sehun held your cheeks.

“I love you, baby,” he shut his eyes.

“I love you too,”

Once you got up from the bed and rushed to the bathroom, jungkook following you but only to have him wait outside the door, yoy put your face in your hands, tears dripping inside the sink.

How could such a beautiful man ruin your life?

How could a man like him cause enough emotional damage to last a lifetime?

Oh Sehun was going to haunt you forever.

The touch of his skin, his kind brown eyes, and those messy messy curls.

And then there were his drinking habits and abusive words.

You didn’t know which would haunt you more.
