8:12 am Wednesday

Wooyoung was still asleep and Mingi was fidgety. He had been up since 5 this morning and not once had he stopped moving. I assumed it was because he wanted to just go kill that bastard already, but I couldn't be sure. Me, Mingi, Seonghwa, San, and Hongjoong were the only ones awake, well Mingi and San never really went to sleep last night. Something seemed off about Mingi, he was jumpy, and it seemed like his mind was racing. It could've been from the lack of sleep, but it didn't seem like it, it seemed like he had something on his mind. I looked over to see Yunho's eyes flutter as he looked around at us "Good morning" He yawned "Good Morning" San gave him a small smile. Yunho looked to the other side of the room to see Mingi pacing. "Hey... Mingi you okay?" Yunho asked raising his eyebrow. "Yeah" Mingi's tone was unsure and shaky which told us all that he was absolutely not okay. Seonghwa gave me a look telling me that something was very wrong with Mingi. Hongjoong went over and pulled Mingi out into the hallway as we all watched. "What the fuck is going on?" I questioned as none of this made any fucking sense. "I don't know, he's been really jumpy and restless since yesterday" Seonghwa sighed as his face had nothing but worry written all over it. "I mean you can't blame him for acting a little different, he was just put through hell, I don't blame him for acting different and being a little jumpy" Yunho stated, I understood where he was coming from but, Mingi had gotten kidnapped many times before. He had probably gotten taken the most times out of everyone, and yeah, each time he would be a little different, but he was never like this. "I know but he's gotten taken before and he's never acted like this" San stated "Well this time he wasn't the only one who got taken, and he already told us he heard Wooyoung's screams and just by that video I can already tell you if I heard those screams and couldn't do anything to save him I'd be fucked up too" Yeosang randomly blurted out as he sat up stretching his arms. "Your awake?" San looked at Yeosang. "No" Yeosang smiled slightly as Yunho and I broke into laughter. Although it wasn't that funny I felt as if I needed to laugh since the last 24 hours have been nothing but anger and fear. I composed myself as I kept thinking about Mingi. "I know, but something just doesn't seem right. It's like something happened to him" I said with a low tone as I hoped that nothing happened to him. Mingi was strong and tough but that was exactly why I was worried, because Mingi wasn't the type to talk out his problems and try to solve them he was the type to bury them down and hide them until they broke him. So if something happened to him i was worried that he'd have to live with all the trauma and that instead of talking about it and getting it off his chest and having us to help support him he was going to bury it so deep inside of him that it would eventually break him. That's what happened all the other time Mingi had gone through shit, like after his dad died. After his dad died, he couldn't stop thinking about him and all the fucked-up shit but he kept burring it deep down until he broke down and destroyed his room and killed several of his own guards and 3 innocent people just because they looked at him the wrong way. "I mean that would make sense" Yunho chimed in "Yea, when we were getting him cleaned up, he absolutely refused to let us see his chest" Yeosang stated. Right as those words left his mouth Mingi and Hongjoong walked back in and they both sat down. It looked like they had a very serious conversation, but I knew better than to ask. "Is everything okay?" Seonghwa asked Hongjoong who seemed slightly annoyed but worried at the same time. "Yea" He blankly answered. I looked at Mingi who looked sad and scared. "What happened" Yeosang blankly stated as he did not buy there bullshit answers. "What do you mean?" Hongjoong asked as he tried his best to play dumb, let's just say he should never be an actor. "Stop with the bullshit why did you take Mingi out in the hallway?!" Yeosang's tone got sharper as he was done with the lies. "I was asking him why the fuck there was blood on the bathroom floor!" Hongjoong barked back. "What?" Seonghwa blurted out. I mean blood on the floor wasn't out of the normal for us but it was kind of weird since the only ones who have been home since the incident were Hongjoong, Yunho, Yeosang, and Mingi. And Mingi was the last one to use the bathroom. "Yeah! One of the maids came by to clean and they found blood on the bathroom floor along with one of Mingi's shirts that was covered in blood!" Hongjoong barked. "Huh!?" San yelled. Everyone was wide eyed with there mouths hanging open while Wooyoung was still peacefully sleeping through the yelling. Mingi just put his head down as he started playing his with fingers. "Mingi! What happened!" Seonghwa turned his attention to Mingi "Why were you bleeding!" Yunho chimed in. "Nothing" Mingi quietly mumbled out with an unsure tone. "He won't tell anyone what happened" Hongjoong growled with a sigh as he had very clearly given up trying to get an actual answer out of Mingi. "Mingi what happened" Seonghwa asked his tone getting lower and sharper. "I'm fine" Mingi mumbled his tone also getting lower. "Did you atleast clean the fucking wound" San sighed as he saw we weren't getting anywhere by asking him what happened. "Yes" He mumbled blankly his eyes still glued to the floor. "Where is it" Seonghwa sternly demanded, as he made it clear this was not a question. "I'm fine" Mingi's tone was sharp and quick. "I'm not asking" Seonghwa growled as he stood up and walked towards Mingi. Hongjoong looked at Seonghwa as he walked towards Mingi and Hongjoong. "Maybe we should take this somewhere else" Yunho awkwardly chimed in as he was trying to prevent everyone from waking Wooyoung up. Seonghwa grabbed Mingi's shirt, pulling him up and dragging him out of the room. Hongjoong and Yeosang quickly got up walking out behind them as Me, Yunho, and San all looked at each other. "What the actual fuck" San sighed "I have no fucking clue" I responded, " I don't get it why couldn't he have fucking told us he was hurt" Yunho blurted out "Well you know how he is, he likes to be all tough and shit" I stated as it was true. Mingi acted tough and shit especially when it came to his feelings and stressful situations. Every time anything stressful, hard, or emotional happened he would hide how he truly felt about the situation and no matter how many times we told him he could tell us how he felt, and that we would be there for him no matter what, it didn't change anything.
