promises ⇢ exo sehun ft. z. tao

nine

"great, now we have to stay in jail. like what the fuck did we do?" emily's voice was clearly annoyed as i just sat there, playing around with my nails.

sehun sat right beside me, arms draped around me as if to comfort me but doesn't seem to work.

tao didn't show up ever since the time we met. he might get all worked up after he thought emily have been avoiding him.

i sat there in silence. sweat trickles down all the way to my spine. i'm scared. we had never been in jail before. i don't wanna ever be in jail.

as if on cue, a police officer walked up to us and said that the boys who fought us earlier, had admitted their faults.

for a second there, i actually prayed, that the boys will be alright. i nodded and the police officer walked away. emily doesn't seem pleased by this at all.

sehun walked me to the car and emily walked the other way.

"hey, you should call tao. he's been worried sick." before emily could dissapear from our sight, sehun said this, sternly.

"maybe i should." emily sighed, face full of sadness as she continued walking out into the cold breeze.

we continued walking, as if nothing had happened. our long ride was in complete silence. neither of us made any sound, and i'm grateful towards him for keeping it silent.

once we entered the house, sehun heaved a sigh. his face contorted in annoyance. he must be tired, having to take care of his junior, who only knows how to do trouble.

"sorry for making such a big fuss." i said silently, as he only nodded.

he turned off all lights, making the sight goes dark. and without even a single word, he walked into his room, banging the door hard.

i just sighed and slumped my shoulders. just when i thought we were getting along so much better.

emily's pov.

i paced back and forth, dialing his number every second i could. where is he?! he's not even answering his phone. damn it.

i tried to calm myself down, taking a sip of my hot chocolate. if he was here with me, we would usually talk about how such a bad idea it is that we were stuck together. and he would ask for some of my hot chocolate.

wow, emily, dumbstruck in love, huh? nice try.

out of patience, i quickly head towards the door. out of nowhere, tao was there, closing the door.

"oh my god, tao! where were you?!" my voice trembled as i run up towards him. my arms flung around him and wrapped tightly on his leather jacket. it's cold, since it's night.

"emily?!" he was in an awe as his lips formed a smile. "oh good god, i have been searching for you this whole time! sehun and aina said they didn't know your location earlier in the evening, so i thought i could search for you." his right hand stroking my hair, his left hand wrapped around me.

i just hugged him back, in complete despair, afraid of losing sight of him again.

"hey, it's late already. did you make any drink? i'm pretty exhausted. i didn't eat all day long, i was worried sick." he said this, hands slowly loosening his grip.

"you didn't have to do that. i'm not a kid." i huffed out. he chuckled slightly as he took his coat off.

"maybe. but you are my junior. sehun told me that it was my responsibility." he said, heading to my cup of hot chocolate. without second thinking, he sipped some of it.

i just realized how important he is to me. despite the way he treats me like a kid, i still regret not answering his phone calls.

"didn't you get my calls?" i asked him.

"my phone was pretty much dead." he laughed and smiled up to me.

his innocent smile made me feel bad. how wrong did i treat him?

i smiled back to him and hugged him again. he was shocked at first, but, who cares. he's my senior. mine.

aina's pov

i laid on the bed, looking up the ceiling. my mind wanders at a lot of thoughts. but mostly, it's sehun.

how his face made a super sad emotion. how he acted like nothing had happened. how he coldly made me feel like a trash. all these made my head dizzy as my tears flowed down smoothly.

honestly, the way his eyes made a glare to me, it made me scared. it sends shivers to me just by thinking about it.

i ended up sleeping in tears.

sehun's pov

my mind was a mess the next morning. looks like we would skip school today.

damn it. my mind finally progressed back into what happened last night. how should i act now? she might not even talk to me now.

i went into the bathroom, trying to calm myself by flowing the water onto my whole body. her voice was loud enough for me to hear. she was singing little me by little mix. what's with the sad song?

i blowed my hair, making sure it's dry. once done, i sat on the bed, staring into my thoughts.

now it's as clear as day that she's sad by how i acted towards her. my heart sunk into deep sorrow. way to go by being such a dick sehun. well done.

"sehun?" she knocked on my room door. hesitantly, i walked up towards the door, and opened the door. seeing my half naked torso, she just stared straight into my eyes. "i just wanted to tell you, the breakfast is ready. just put on some shirt and come downstairs." she said this, a super extra poker face on her, a straight tone through her voice.

in a few moments, the awkward silence went by and she just sighed before walking back downstairs.

maybe she was waiting for me to apologize? or maybe she was expecting some answer? i'm going crazy just by thinking about the whole thing.

i put on the shirt my mum bought me during my last year's birthday, before walking downstairs.
