Chapter 3

168 15 7
                                    

There was a knock at the door. Beomgyu took a look at the clock and saw that it was 7PM now... Damn he tried to fall asleep for 2 hours and nothing happened.

As he started getting frustrated with himself again, the person knocked again.

Oh right, there was someone at his door. He slowly went up to it and put his right hand on the doorknob, hesitating a little to open it but then finally getting the courage to pull the door open.

»Ahhh finally I thought you were asleep or something.« The guy stepped into his apartment without waiting for an invitation and Beomgyu recognized him at once.

»You're that guy from earlier today!« Tall, fluffy brown hair and a huge smile on his face. It was the guy who talked random weird shit while getting a coffee. And yeah, he seemed really cute and all but that couldn't stop Beomgyu from getting a little terrified. »Wait how do you know where I live?« He didn't follow him, right?

»Oh, I didn't stalk you if that's what you're thinking, I just have... good connections.« Beomgyu raised a brow.

»You mean... like Taehyun?« The stranger happily clasped his hands together.

»Yes, how did you know that??«

»You literally said his name this morning.«

»Oh, right.« Beomgyu was a little less terrified now. Their first interaction had been so stupidly mysterious that he had started wondering if he got teleported into a Kdrama but now...

»You're... different now.« He got a chuckle as a response.

»Yeah haha.. I was trying really hard to be cool this morning. Did I do well? I don't get to do this very often and I wanted to leave an impression.«

»Well, you did«, Beomgyu mumbled.

...

...

...

»You don't know my name, right?« the stranger broke the silence.

»Nope.«

»...«

»I'm Kai.«

»Okay.« Why was everything so awkward all of a sudden? Oh wait, Beomgyu could actually think of a reason. Maybe it was because of the weird stranger who was standing in the middle of his apartment and didn't seem to have the ability to read the room at all!

Beomgyu wasn't sure how he could forget about the weirdness of this situation but he was gonna get answers NOW.

»Who are you?«

»I'm Kai.«

Beomgyu could almost physically feel the following silence which doesn't make any sense but whatever.

»OH«, Kai exclaimed suddenly. »Now I think I know what you mean bruhhh I'm such a loser sry lol.« A furrow lied on Kais forehead as he seemed to think about what to answer.

»Well, I'm kinda just here to get you to come with me.«

»Huh why would I?«

»Because I have orders to bring you with me and I really don't wanna get beheaded yk I'm only 19 after all please.« He looked at the shorter guy who couldn't believe what he had just heard.

»Be...headed?«

»Yup!« Kai smiled brightly while he grabbed Beomgyus arm and pulled him closer. »So don't complain and just come with me. Besides, it's gonna be 100x better than going with Soobin!«

»Soobin?« Beomgyu asked but quickly got distracted by the smoke bomb that Kai pulled out of seemingly nowhere. »Kai, what is that?«

»Ok, listen. You really can't start judging me for this now. I know humans always imagine magic to be this amazing, colorful and ethereal stuff and okay, it is like that sometimes, don't get me wrong!! but not always unfortunately!! And woah this isn't important.« He cleared his throat. »Anyway, just try not to breathe in too much of this okay?«

»Hey, wtf do you mean with ma–« Kai had already used the smoke bomb and the fog covered Beomgyus vision and made him feel dizzy. His eyes slowly closed as he felt his body slump down. The last thing he saw was a bright white light before he completely blacked out.


-------------------------------------------------------------


»Kai goddammit why is he unconcious??«

»Hey I told him not to breathe in so much!!«

»Please you had one job.«

Beomgyu slowly came back to his senses. And he recognized Kais voice.

»It's not like he died!« He couldn't see the tall guy but Beomgyu could clearly hear the pout. The other person just sighed.

Beomgyu opened his eyes and stared at the ceiling. It was made out of wood and while there were a few holes here and there, it didn't look run down at all. They looked natural and purposefully placed, covered in comically large leaves. Sure, green leaves. But also pink and purple ones. A few orange ones, too. Branches had grown through the holes as well, decorating the bland wood with splashes of colorful nature.

From his left he could hear birds chirping and the wind murmur softly. So he tilted his head to the side and spotted a hole in the wall as well. A big branch with a ridiculous amount of leaves had taken over the spot and was now home to a screeching bird family - The chicks seemed to have hatched not too long ago.

Looking past the birds, Beomgyu saw trees... and more trees. Just trees. Although it was nighttime, he was clearly seeing a forest. And that's when he remembered what had previously happened and that he wasn't home.

»AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA« He sat up way too fast which caused him to see black spots for a few seconds. But he also screamed. Very loudly.

»Oh you're awake.«

Beomgyu didn't bother to look at who was speaking and just quickly left the bed. »I– where– what– how– KAI!« The younger startled at his name being shouted.

»Yes...«

Beomgyu swirled around to face him. »What the actual fuck dude?« It was barely a whisper.

»Ahem.« He turned to face the third person in the room. She seemed to be a little too close to beating both of them up right then and there. Beomgyu immediately got all quiet. Something about that woman was intimidating as fuck.

Kai didn't dare to say another word as well and after roughly a minute of pure silence – which seemed like at least 10 minutes to Beomgyu – the woman broke out of her resolute expression with a bright smile.

»Well, now that everyone is calm, we can finally talk!«

»Who... who are you?« Beomgyu managed to ask.

Her mood shift had been sudden, but her smile seemed genuine. »My name is Seola. And I've been wanting to talk to you, Choi Beomgyu.«
