Seoulmates | YJW

--- Yang Jungwon POV

I'm furious. I'm so furious that I'm furiously pacing in my room trying to stop my fury, but I can't. Your soulmate just almost got raped, of course you can't! That bond, the connection I felt with her had been so strong and undeniable and I knew she meant something to me when I had first saw her, but I didn't want to break Sohee's heart. "Jungwon, are you alright? I heard what happened to Nari. I hope she's okay," Sohee's soothing voice echoes out in my room as I welcome her. "Hey, babe."

Sohee is sweet, kind, caring, everything I could ever ask for but Nari clicked with me. Wave it off, Yang Jungwon. "C'mon, give me that smile. Show me those dimples," Sohee smiles lightly, and I finally give her a small smile. "It'll be alright, Bang PD Nim will solve everything."

"Sunghoon hyung?" I query as Sunghoon enters my room.

It's already pretty late in the night but I wonder why he's here. "Is anything wrong, hyung?"

"Jungwon-ah, I just wanted to ask. Do you really believe in soulmates?" he asks.

"Of course, I do," I answer confusedly.

"As much as I don't, you do and I know Nari does to. She's hurting, Jungwon. She's hurting badly."

With that, he leaves the room and me confused as ever. Not only by his words but also by my own emotions.

"Do I love Sohee, or do I love Nari?"

--- Lee Heeseung POV

I've called a secret meeting with all the members, no Jungwon, Sohee and Nari. "What's up Heeseung?" Jake asks worriedly. "Where's Jungwon?"

"I didn't call for him because it relates to him. We all love Jungwon and want him to get the best person he can have don't we?" I ask all of us as we all nod. "Good, because we're all going on a vacation soon and I want us all to keep an eye on Sohee."

"Why Sohee?" Sunoo groans. "She's so insulting sometimes."

"And she also happens to have had spoken to that guy who tried to rape Nari before. Bang PD didn't know the girl from his description is Sohee, but we know," Jay inputs.

"She also says pretty rude things to Nari," Niki adds as he pulls up a voice recording.

"Don't make it obvious but keep an eye on Sohee. Jungwon will most likely look out for Nari after what happened, meaning Sohee will probably act on jealousy," I conclude as all the members nod in agreement.

--- Kim Nari POV

"What do you mean we're all going on vacation!" I squeal in delight and hug Jake as he breaks the news to me. "And I can bring a friend along!"

I dial Rei as fast as I can and of course she agrees. We were all going to head to Jeju Island, a place I haven't gone to in a long, long time but I am undeniably as excited as can be. Rei is to meet up with us at the ferry station where we will all head out to Jeju Island together. "Thank you so much!"

"You shouldn't be thanking me," Jake laughs. "Thank Jungwon, he thought everyone needed a break and planned it a while ago already."

"Thanks, Jungwon," I yell as I watch him jolt in the corridor but flash me that million-dollar dimple smile.

"Kimmy!" Rei screams as I scream, "Rei!"

We pull each other into a big embrace as she grins wildly. "You have to tell me everything," she whispers as we head over to the others.

"Won won, I thought my ears were going to fall off," Sohee pouts annoyingly that even Jungwon rolls his eyes.

I hardly contain my laughter as do the others as we board the ship. I fill in Rei on all the things I've gone through, even the more difficult parts. "My poor baby," she weeps as she hugs me tightly. "Girl, you should have told me earlier."

"At least I already told Ha-eun when we called," I tease.

"How dare you," she fake gasps as we laugh.

As we set out, a slow pit of unease fills me and I can hardly think straight. "I'm going out for air," I tell her as I reach the open space of the ferry.

Gosh, it's so hard to breathe in there. "Kim Nari," Sohee's voice joins me as she stands next to me.

"Hi Sohee," I smile faintly as I feel the bile coming up.

"Just so you remember, Won won is mine," she threatens and as she pulls me to look at her in respect, my gates open up and I vomit over her.

She screeches and I see Jake filming in the corner of my eye before he puts it away and pretends to rush over. "You bitch!" Sohee shrieks just as Jungwon comes by.

As soon as she sees him, she tears up and acts weak as she cries dramatically to the bathroom. This is just great. Jungwon appears in front of me and asks, "Kimmy, are you feeling alright?"

That's the first time he's called me that. "I'm fine, but shouldn't you be checking on Sohee?"

He freezes but shakes his head, "You're sicker than she is. Do you want some sea-sickness pills?"

I nod as he goes and grabs them for me as Jake stays by my side. "Why do you put up with it?" Jake asks.

I let my eyes meet his as I give him a soft smile, "Because I love him and to love someone means to let them be happy even if you aren't."
