I'm walking home from school when I hear some noises and banging in an alleyway. I glance over and see someone getting beat up by another person. I look closer, thinking that I recognized the person getting beat up when I notice that it's Heeseung. I'm about to pull out my taser and run up to help him when he makes eye contact with me. I look down to see his hand that his ushering for me to leave. I stand there for a moment but then decide to go, running off back to my house.
My heart was pounding as I thought about Heeseung. I felt so bad for leaving him but now that I think about it, I don't even know if I would've been much of a help. Either way I should've tried at least. But at the same time he did tell me to go.
I couldn't take this anymore so I decided maybe taking a shower would calm me down since that usually worked. Well, it didn't. I stepped out of the shower and looked at the time to see that it had been an hour since I saw Heeseung getting beat up.
I quickly got dressed into some sweatpants and a sweatshirt, putting a tank top on underneath just in case I got hot and I headed out to Heeseung's apartment. I knocked on the door and no one answered for a moment.
"Heeseung, are you there?" I called out and finally the door opened to reveal him in pretty bad condition obviously. He pulled me inside of his apartment and locked the door. He then turned to face me again and immediately pulled me into a tight hug. I felt him groan a little, probably in pain, but he still continued to hug me and I just let him.
After a little while he pulled away from me and I sighed before I pulled Heeseung to the bathroom assuming that's where his first aid kit was. He sit down on the closed toilet seat and I looked under his sink to find that was where he kept it.
I then walked over to him and he spread his legs, allowing me to stand in between them as I started to work on fixing him up a bit. He had his hands on my back, holding onto me as he winced in pain.
Once I finished I stepped away from him and put the first aid kit away back under the sink, making a mental note that that was where he kept it just in case something were to happen again. I stood up and Heeseung was already standing. He walked over to me and grabbed my hand. He looked at me for a moment before he pulled me in for another hug.
I pulled away this time and looked up at him, "What happened?" I say, referring to why he got beat up.
"I got into and altercation with him over work stuff and so he beat me up." Heeseung answered and that made me realize, I didn't even know what he did for a living.
"What's your job?" I ask.
He doesn't say anything for a moment as he looks into my eyes, "That doesn't matter love." He replies and I decide that it was best for me to not question him any further, instead choosing to focus on the new nickname. I don't say anything about that either though.
"Can you stay the night with me?" He asks and I nod, being fine with doing anything he wanted me to do.
<3
We lie in bed next to one another, this time I felt a bit more comfortable then last time. I felt nervous and worried for him but I didn't say anything. I instead rolled over and got closer to him, "Can I hug you?" I asked.
"Yeah." He whispers back and I watch as he puts his arm out for me to lay on. I do exactly that and he groans a bit at the feeling since he was hurt.
"I'm so sorry." I say, going to move off of him but am stopped when he wraps his other arm around me.
"Lili, it's fine. Lay with me." He says before moving the arm he had just wrapped around me and laying facing the ceiling again, keeping his left arm under me. I move and place my head partly on his chest and feel how his chest rised and fell as he breathed. I had wrapped one of my arms around his torso and I felt his right hand gently grab my arm, holding on to it. I closed my eyes and ended up falling asleep not long after doing so.
