Damn Those Boys (SuJu Fanfiction)

Chapter 2: In Which The Boys Are Sorry

"What did I do to receive such a special session?"

"We're not here to beat you up. Not now. Not ever again."

 

"Excuse me?"

"What are you talking about?" JungSoo asks the fourteen in front of her. She turns to the one behind her. "I thought you all were finally gonna join in on the fun, Kyu."

"You should know by now we don't get our hands dirty with this sort of thing," KangIn responds.

"If we were going to beat you up, we would've done it ages ago," ZhouMi adds.

"Touching, truly touching. Just tell me why you're here." She turns to KyuHyun. "And quit touching the blood. That's just weird."

KyuHyun pulls his hand off the blood stained wall. "How many?" he asks softly.

"85 beatings, 43 blood leaks, 192 stitches, 6 broken bones, and 2 mild concussions." She smirks. "I know you didn't ask for the full story, but I thought I'd tell you anyway. Why are you like this, anyway?" The smirk drops from her face to be replaced with a scowl. "Suddenly feeling guilty?"

"Yes." The small answer comes from Henry. "We didn't know what really happened that day until this morning."

"We thought we were doing something good for our friend. The person that caused his hurt was getting hurt, too," ShinDong explained.

"We're sorry. Starting today, we'll stop bothering you," KyuHyun stands in front of her and says the words she couldn't believe that any of them would ever say. But she scowls anyway.

"What would happen if you were to drop a glass?"

The boys looked at each other, confused, before KiBum says, "It would break."

"If you said sorry, would it fix itself?"

"Of course not," EunHyuk answers.

"So sorry wasn't good enough?"

The boys look at each other. "Well, no but-"

"What about glue? Could you fix the glass by gluing it back together?"

"You could try," SiWon answers.

"Would you still be able to see the cracks?"

"Probably," reasons SungMin.

"Would it be able to hold water? Would it still be able to maintain its original purpose?"

HeeChul shakes his head. "No, but-"

"Why not?"

"Cause it's broken," answers HanGeng.

"Because you broke it." The boys faces change to a look of understanding. "And it will be broken forever. You couldn't fix it by saying sorry. Would it still be broken if you walk away?"

"Yes."

"So you leaving won't fix it?"

"No."

"Can you do anything to make it was the way before?"

"No."

JungSoo carefully examines each boy's face. "Do you understand now? Telling me that you're sorry isn't gonna make me feel any better. It isn't gonna make my self-esteem and confidence shoot back up. I will always be broken because of you." She inhales deeply, then sighs. "But, you are forgiven."

"But, you just said-"

JungSoo holds to her hand to silence the youngest. "You thought your intentions were noble so I'll give you credit for that. I had a best friend once. If anyone would've made her cry, I probably would've killed them. She was quite the delicate flower." She smiles softly and shifts her gaze to the ground. "I don't trust you, and I'm not sure if I ever will. But I forgive you. Please leave me be now." She smiles at them softly. She turns to face the wall and sits down gently, tracing her hands over the old wall.

LeeTeuk motions for everyone to leave. He starts to follow when his eyes linger on JungSoo, making a crown of sorts from the vines.

"JungSoo," he calls softly. She turns and looks at him with questioning eyes. "We share a name. Let's not share a sadness as well."

JungSoo nods gently. "I think that would be best." She stands, handing him the completed crown. "Until we meet again, smile so we don't share in our sadness. Goodbye, Park JungSoo."

"Goodbye, Kim JungSoo."

Okay so this is only like 600 something words which is really short compared to the stuff I normally write but the next chapter will be a long one, I promise. Also, did you like my glass metaphor? I think it's very fitting. You're probably thinking 'Why did she forgive them so soon, they're dickheads!'  Yes, I know but it will all make sense later, swearsies. Please continue to support all my stories. Readers, I love you all. Please comment and vote it up. Comments help me write faster *winkwink* *nudgenudge*. But seriously thank you all. I'll try to update my SHINee fic more regularly. I'm kinda drawing blanks. See you in the next update my lovelies.
