Dive Into You

Chapter 6: Boo Seungkwan

Boo Seung-kwan runs a hand through his shiny silvery-blue tinted hair. Where is he? He promised he'd pick me up? This is what he gets for trusting Vernon to see his promise through. But usually Vernon comes through. So what is keeping him? Seung-kwan pulls his cell phone from his pocket with a heavy sigh.

"Where are you, Hansol?" Seung-kwan mutters as he taps his screen and spots a familiar picture on the lock screen that shows him with Vernon on the ocean-like set of their album, Attacca. He glances up again, hopeful, and spots a black van with familiar tinted windows pulling up to the curb.

"Finally," he hisses out and stuffs his phone away.

The vehicle halts and the back door opens up. He is greeted by an apology from Vernon, "Sorry, Boo, I got caught up handling some business..."

"Yeah, yeah." Seung-kwan, not looking up as he struggles to get his cell into his pocket, steps into the vehicle and takes his seat. He reaches to pull the door shut and then whips around to confront Vernon. "You had me waiting there for--!" He cuts himself off with a gasp as the seat next to him and behind him is empty.

Seung-kwan whirls around in his seat, startled. "Hansol, what the--?" He heard Vernon's voice though...where is he?

As he looks around him for the group's lead rapper, a loud, echoing clicking of a lock makes him yelp and jump in place. He suddenly forgets all about Vernon and where he is at. "WHA--WHAT IS THIS?!"

"Settle down, feisty little spitfire," a voice booms out.

Seung-kwan launches for the door, but he can hear and feel the car moving. Panic drives him, his heart slamming against his chest. Oh God...this can't be happening! "What is this? Where is Vernon?"

"Relax, your dear Hansol is perfectly okay. And you will be too if you don't fight," the voice says, surprisingly reassuringly and calmly.

Seung-kwan blinks in shock. "If I don't fight? Are you threatening me? Do you even know who I am?!"

"Boo Seung-kwan."

Seung-kwan's heart skips a beat, his legs give out and he crashes back down into his chair. "How do you know...? Who are you?"

"It's not important. What is important is that you want to get away, get a vacation. Am I right?"

Seung-kwan blinks, unable to find words.

"You're tired, overworked, exhausted...your group can carry on for a little bit without you. Can't they? After all, they have Lee Seok-min. You deserve some time to yourself, don't you?" the voice remarks.

Seung-kwan stares ahead of him, letting the words sink in. "I do."

"Then sit back, relax and let me guide you to your much needed vacation."

Seung-kwan finds himself oddly doing just that: relaxing. First, his muscles loosen, then he feels a little numb and his eyelids become super heavy. He stifles a yawn. And before long, he's dozing off into a nice, peaceful sleep.
