The Boy Next Door

42.

Heeseung's POV:

I admire Chaewon's dress that looks like it's perfectly made for her. I see the zipper of the dress is down so I go up to her to fix it. Why do I feel this sort of attraction to her?

I feel like I'm being pulled into her and I want to spend every lasting second with her. She's so beautiful. She radiates sunshine and I hate it when she lets people steal it. Her smile, her laugh, her lips, her eyes, her face, her personality, oh fuck her personality she has a heart of gold. 

How can someone be so perfect in every aspect? I will kill that bastard Minwoo for treating her like shit. She deserves better, I know it. I could be a better boyfriend. No! What am I thinking?

We get to the club and I notice she tries to walk normally but there's some sort of wobbling with her heels. 

I hesitantly grab her hand, knowing she wanted me to stop being hesitant. I can't help it after everything I know she's gone through. A shit relationship, and that motherfucker I can't speak the name of without punching someone. 

I watch her face, just to see any discomfort because I can read her emotions like a book. She just looks at me giving a small smile, and when she tightens the grip on my hand I lose it. I'm smiling like crazy, just barely stopping myself from jumping up and down. 

"Chaewon before we go I want you to know I'll protect you no matter what. Have as much fun as you want alright?" I say while giving her a comforting smile. 

"I know, Hee. Thank you. Your the best." she says before skidding inside like a little kid. She shows her ID and goes straight in, like she's not afraid. I follow quickly, right behind her just making sure she's okay. 

We find Namjin and the others pretty quickly, then we get drinking straight away. Although the urge of the strong alcohol burning my throat as it goes down seems amazing, I'm not going to. I keep my eyes on Chaewon as well as Namjin and Boram just in case some pervert tries to pull something. 

Jake, Jay, and Sunghoon are crowded around me as I sit down on the bar. They order all types of alcohol and Chaewon's already given the bartender her card. I switch it out for mine and keep hers in my pocket. I watch as Chaewon hesitantly takes her first sips of her drink, and she seems okay. 

"Bro take your eyes of your girl! We get it!" Sunghoon screams into my ear making me glare at him. 

"She's not his girl!" Jake screams back looking all serious. Sunghoon backs off and they go and dance with the girls. 

"Heeseung drink a little! It's not going to hurt!" Jay says while holding up a cup for me. 

"No thanks. I'm not going to drink." I say firmly while giving a smile to Jay so he knows I'm not mad or something.  

"Oka-" before he can continue the drink gets taken out of his hands and Chaewon is already chugging it down. Her face is all red and her eyes are barely open. 

She goes back to the dance floor, dancing with random people. I follow this guy who's talking to Chaewon making my blood boil. She's not even my girlfriend or anything, snap out of it. 

"Hey handsome!" I hear a squeaky voice ring in my ear. I turn to my right to see a bunch of girls and when I turn to the left there's even more. One girls hand is making her way to my thigh making me quite uncomfortable. 

"Your so hot!" another screams straight into my ear. I shrug at her not wanting to scream or raise my voice. The music blasts into my ear making it barely audible and the smell in here is morbid. I spot Chaewon walking up to the bar with a empty cup and she's not walking straight.
