Hours later, Jeongguk found himself down the street. Covered in blood, Jeongguk was being shoved to the concrete by a group of police officers while the paramedics lifted a body onto a stretcher. Red and blue lights flashed as they pushed him into the back of the police car, wrists handcuffed behind his back.

How did we end up here?

I feel like I should rewind a little bit..

"Are you almost ready?" Jeongguk knocked on the bathroom door, awaiting Lisa's response.

"Ask again and I'll knock your teeth out." She replied as she opened the door. Jeongguk stared at her, speechless.

Lisa had never been the type of girl to wear a dress when going out clubbing.

Or wear a dress ever.

And Jeongguk loved it. He found her so beautiful no matter what she wore.

And right now?

She looked fucking stunning.

She wore a small black crop top with a red and black racing jacket over it and a pair of baggy red cargo pants. She'd thrown her hair up into a ponytail and slipped into a pair of red and black sneakers.

"My god, you're beautiful." Jeongguk whispered, more so to himself.

"Shut up." She muttered, "Can we go now?"

"I was waiting on you, Lis." He smiled and walked with her out to the kitchen. Attempting to sneak out of the house without anyone questioning them, they were caught by Lisa's dad's.

"And where are you two going?" Seokjin raised an eyebrow.

"Out." Lisa replied simply.

"Out where?" Namjoon chimed in.

"I'm taking her to dinner." Jeongguk said smoothly.

"...Fine. But I want both of you home by midnight, got it?"

They both nodded before heading out to Jeongguk's car.

Needless to say, they weren't going out to dinner.

"Keep my tab open," Jeongguk leaned against the bar of a nightclub down the street from their house, "Can I have a beer for my girl and whiskey for me?"

The bartender nodded and began making their drinks. Lisa glanced at him, "Did you call me-"

"You heard me." He smirked as the bartender handed them their glasses. As the night went on, Jeongguk found himself watching a tipsy Lisa dance like nobody else was watching. She looked unreal and Jeongguk couldn't take his eyes off of her.

He walked up behind her carefully, hands holding her hips in place to stop her for a moment, "You want another drink?" He whispered against her ear.

Lisa let her head fall onto Jeongguk's shoulder, glancing up at him with her pretty smile, "Yes please."

"I'll be right back. Don't move." He said as he headed to the bar. Turning for just a few moments, he'd managed to order her another drink but when he turned back around, she was gone. Frantically glancing around the room for the girl, he looked past the crowd of dancing people to find her being pulled into a restroom in the corner of the club by a creepy old man with a stupid smirk on his lips. Jeongguk could already feel himself losing control of his anger as he made his way to the bathroom, the crowd of people slowing him down due to how many people crowded the dance floor. When he finally made it to the bathroom, he found what he hoped he wouldn't. The man was on top of Lisa, his pants pulled down to his ankles and Lisa's clothes discarded on the floor next to them.

"YOU FUCKING PIECE OF SHIT!" Jeongguk grabbed the man by his shoulders and threw him against the wall. Grabbing Lisa's clothes, he handed them to her and looked away to let her change. The man then managed to escape the bathroom, running out of the club as fast as he possibly could.

And you wanna know something funny?

Jeongguk's a really fast runner.

Finding him in the middle of the street attempting to call a cab, Jeongguk shoved him to the ground, kicking him hard in the stomach before punching him in the face repeatedly. The man fought back, managing to get a few good hits on the boy but Jeongguk had the upper hand when he began mercilessly throwing punches to the man's face. He felt his nose bleeding profusely while also being covered in this unknown man's blood.

"JEONGGUK!" He heard Lisa scream, "JEONGGUK YOU'RE GONNA KILL HIM!"

But Jeongguk didn't care. Not even a little bit. He wanted this man dead.

"JEONGGUK PLEASE JUST CALM DOWN-" Lisa grabbed her best friend's shoulders and attempted to pull him off but was unsuccessful. Jeongguk had lost complete control over his anger.

"FUCKING SON OF A BITCH! YOU'RE GONNA FUCKING BURN IN HELL YOU PIECE OF SHIT! DO YOU HEAR ME? YOU'RE FUCKING DISGUSTING-"

Blue and red lights flashed from down the street but Jeongguk couldn't find it in himself to stop hitting the unconscious and unrecognizable man. He couldn't stop even when he heard the police telling him to get off before they detained him.

Grabbing him by the back of the neck they shoved Jeongguk hard against the pavement, securing his hands behind his back in handcuffs despite Lisa's screaming protests.

"LET HIM GO." Lisa screamed as she got in the officer's face, "FUCKING LET HIM GO."

They slammed him onto the hood of the cruiser, Jeongguk covered head to toe in blood, whether it be his own or not.

"Jeon Jeongguk you're being arrested for the assault of-"

He tuned the officer's out when he saw Lisa standing there in the middle of the street, clothes ripped and a sad look on her face. His heart fell to his stomach. Was this it? Did he just lose her? Because of his anger?
