Junmin POV

"Stop fighting, you'll enjoy it" I heard someone whisper in the darkness with his disgusting breath that reeked of cigarettes and trash.

He grabbed both my wrist, but this time he held it behind me with his left hand.

"Shh, you'll be fine, just stop fighting your future husband" he whispered in my ear, I flinched as he licked it.

I felt the darkness consuming me and I couldn't talk or call out for help. Hands raked all over my body, as dirty talks filled my ears.

I fell into it and lost myself.

I stirred awake with ragged breathing, my eyes slowly opening to a beeping sound and a blurry sight of my room ceiling. I blinked multiple times until my view became clearer.

I wasn't back there, I was at home, and safe in my room. I had a different nightmare, I didn't even feel the need to scream. I found myself enduring it because it was normal.

I attempted to sit up but my head ached. Why am I connected to this weird beeping machine? Why do I feel like shit? And why does it feel like I hit my head on a fucking rock?.

I mean, I was safe right?.

How long was I asleep? I tried shoving those thoughts away as I tried to focus on why I was here in the first place.

I tore my gaze from the machine and stared out of the window. Gathering my thoughts, It all finally came back to me. from the cuts, to Jaewook, the call to Minjae, and Sumin finding me soaked in my own blood.

It wasn't a nightmare, it was all real.

Realization made its way to my face and I closed my eyes, fighting back tears. My chest hurt, making it hard for me to breathe.

After everything that happened to me, the most painful part to remember was Sumin seeing me that way. Just thinking about how he might see me now, made a stray tear fall from the corners my eyes.

I breathed out in a shudder as more tears threatened to spill. I tried to hold myself from sobbing but the tears came flowing as I let out broken cries.

Heart wrenching sobs filled the room as I laid there, on my side with my shoulders shaking violently.

I was alone.

Where's everyone?. Where's Sumin, Minjae and Seeun?, Why did they leave me alone?.

I was broken out of my thoughts by a hand on my shoulders, I sat up immediately, my whole body ached at the sudden movement as I let out a painful moan.

It was Sumin who came.

His curious eyes scanned me with hurt in them and I forgot all about the embarrassment I felt as I held his waist tightly, pressing my face into his stomach and cried.

I just needed comfort and someone who'd tell me it's okay.

"Another nightmare?" He asked in a calm voice.

I couldn't bring myself to answer him so I nodded instead.

He eventually sat down, holding me close to him as I let it all out. I didn't know what to feel at that moment, but I was glad I wasn't alone.

"You pity me, don't you?" I asked after a while, with my face still pressed in his neck. He didn't answer, he just kept patting my hair.

"I do not need your pity" I continued.

"I never said I pity you, I'm just concerned. There's a difference".

I sniffled and pulling away from him as I wiped the remaining tears off my cheeks. We stared at each other for a while until I looked away.

My embarrassing moments with Sumin were getting too much to count.

Sumin POV

"Are you okay? How are you feeling? Wait a minute, let me call Yunho hyung" I said, standing up.

He held my hands, stopping me from going "Don't go" he mumbled, exhausted from all the crying.

"Okay, let me call him instead" I sat back down and pulled out my phone to call Yunho hyung. He picked up after the first ring.

"Yes?" I heard him say.

"Oh Sumin" he said after a small pause "what's wrong? Is he okay? Did he wake up? Or did someth-"

"He's fine, he's awake" I cut his ramblings short.

"On my way" he said, cutting the call with a beeping sound.

I placed my phone back in my pocket and turned my attention back to Junmin. He looked at me curiously with big puppy eyes. Oh! How I missed seeing those eyes.

"Junmin, baby? How are you feeling? Any pains?" I asked, trying to get his attention as he looked lost in his head.

"Just a little
headache" he answered in a small voice.

"Yunho hyung will be here soon, he'll get you checked up, okay?"

He nodded a little and I pulled out my phone again, sending a quick text to Seeun.

Young Boss

Me
He's awake.
Seen 4:50 pm.

I placed my phone on his bedside table after Seeun read my text, he'll probably be floating here with happiness.

Yunho came running in and, he hurried to compose himself before walking gently towards us, holding something in his hand. "Don't panic Junmin, you're alright" he said, stopping beside Junmin's bed.

"The cut on your wrist was too deep so you lost a lot of blood and went into shock" he sighed but continued.

"We had a bit of complications with the blood donated at first, but Seonghwa hyung came to the rescue by donating two bags of blood for you." He paused, giving me a fleeting glance.

Silence followed as Seeun ran in with ragged breaths.

"What's with the silence?" Seeun asked.

"I was just telling Junmin about his condition" Yunho hyung answered.

"Okay?" He said breathing nervously "You didn't tell him right?" He whispered not so quietly to Yunho hyung and I'm sure Junmin heard him.

"That's all, I'm glad you're okay"

"There's more, isn't there?" Junmin asked with his voice barely audible, looking at the three of us.

"Well-" Yunho started

"Nothing happened, don't stress over nothing" Seeun said cutting him off.

"Oh something definitely happened, tell me now. I want to hear it from you, not from others. Please Seeun, don't keep anything from me" Junmin pleaded.

Seeun sighed loudly, I could sense he was getting stressed with the whole family situation. I too didn't want him to find out now, the probability that he's the outsider was too much.

"Our blood types are totally different" he said slowly.

"And so what?, I thought it doesn't have to be the same?" Junmin asked, not understanding.

My mouth fell open at what Seeun said next, as I wasn't really expecting him to say it.






"You're not my real brother".
