"Hola?! Abre rapido!!"
Beomgyu looked at Yeonjun, his chocolate eyes wide and scared. he clings onto Yeonjun on instinct, sliding his own hand into his Hyung's palm and squeezing hard.
There's more knocks, turning aggressive and impatient.
Taehyun shows up from the corner of the hall, closing the door to his room quietly.
"what's going on?" he whispers, sharing the same petrified look as the rest of them.
"I'll handle it.." a weak voice comes from behind, Soobin joins the gathering in the hall. body swaying back and forth and his face pale as the walls. he attempts to go downstairs but he is too slow and Yeonjun grabs his hand.
"not in your state, you're not. don't be stupid Soobin, you know damn well there's a chance they'll recognize you." Yeonjun argues. "we need to open the door now, we look too suspicious already. Taehyunie will go, he knows the language best. Beom, go with him. if anything happens, scream."
the two boys nod, Taehyun noticing the tight grip Yeonjun has on Soobin's arm to stop him from protesting nay further. he knows Soobin doesn't like this plan one bit. but he looks too weak to do anything about it, Yeonjun's right. they have to deal with it alone.
"go."
"Cuál es el problema?" (what's the problem). Taehyun says as soon as he swings the door open, putting on a calm face to hide his panic. million different reasons pop in his head but he shuts them down quickly.
there's 3 of the Costa Rican police officers in their door step. their uniform reminding him of bad memories he wishes to erase from his mind.
2 of them peek inside the house with skeptical eyes, then look at him hands on their gun that is strapped to their waist.
Taehyun can feel Beomgyu breathing on his neck, the elder standing right behind him with the same careful expression.
"queja de ruido." (noise complaint" the one standing in the middle says with a straight face. he looks slightly older than the other 2, which makes Taehyun assume he is either their senior or their superior officer.
the heavy weight on his chest seems to drop in an instant at their answer, and although Beomgyu doesn't understand what they said, he can sense Taehyun's relief. which causes him to unclench himself as well.
"everything's fine here." Taehyun answers. turning to Beomgyu. "right?"
Beomgyu nods, wearing the most calm, lighthearted smile he can muster.
"Sí.." the elder responds.
the older officer does not seem quite convinced, so he steps forward, startling Taehyun while Beomgyu stays calm.
"so you wouldn't mind if we take a look around?" the officer asks, but he's already making his way through the living room. the other 2 joining him.
Beomgyu and Taehyun follow his steps, Beomgyu holding Taehyun's hand as the office looks around. it's sweaty and warm, showing how tense the younger is.
the officers stop roaming around and the eldest of them gives Beomgyu a fake smile, which he then returns with a sour one of his own. the officer points at the stairs hinting that he wants to check the second floor as well.
because after all, with a house that size there can't be just 2 residents.
but Beomgyu shakes him head. but the officer approaches the stairs regardless
"is he ignoring me?! remind them that they don't have a search warrant." Beomgyu requests Taehyun. screw not being suspicious. they have a known wanted and a fragile supernatural in there, the risk is too big to take.
