Previous Chapter:

Kinn: What is there between you and Porchay?

End of Previous Chapter.

Kim's POV:
I keep a straight face. My thoughts swirl in my head trying to decide the best way to answer. In the end I decide to feel out how much he actually knows. With an uninterested tone I speak. 

Kim: He's Porsche's brother, my junior at my faculty, and a member of the minor family.

Kinn looked at me like he was trying to decipher the hidden meaning behind my words. I continued to stare at him with apathy.

Kinn: If that's all, then why did you show up to help him that day?

Kim: What day?

I try to let it come across as helping Chay that day was so unimportant to me that I can't even remember it.

Kinn: The day Porchay got kidnapped. I didn't ask you to go. I didn't even tell you that he was kidnapped. Yet, you showed up with one of my bodyguards. Could you explain this to me?

I let out a sigh out of annoyance. Why does my brother think he's entitled to this information? I don't want to answer. In fact, I rather yell at him to mind his own fucking business. However, I know if I do either of those options he will be more suspicious.

Kim: I was suspicious of Vegas from the beginning. I followed him to Porchay-Porsche's house and put his plan together. I showed up to help Porsche and stop Vegas. Porchay was there and Porsche asked me to help him. That's all.

Kinn: From my understanding….you…love…me!

I released the breath I had been unknowingly holding.

Kim: Mmmh. I do. Why else would I care to help Porsche?

Kinn: Let's hug! This is a hugging moment.

Kim: I'll be leaving now.

The Next Day.

I wait outside of Chay's final class for the day. I didn't discuss it with anyone, but I want to take Chay home again. Every minute I'm with him I feel like weight has been lifted off my chest. Even with how much it hurts him being angry at me. He finishes the class and comes out the door. When he sees me, he lets out huff.

Chay: Didn't my brother tell you? I'm going out with friends today. I don't need a ride home.

Kim: Which friends? To where?

I started going through every person I've seen on his social media and I've seen him with. None of them looked particularly threatening, but after the last time Chay went out with friends I'm hesitant.

Chay: Friends! A place!

Kim: Why won't you tell me?

Chay: What happened to, "what you do is your damn decision?"

I rolled my eyes remembering what I yelled at him in a moment of frustration. I didn't mean what I said and I've certainly not kept to that threat either.

Kim: You always like to remember the worst parts of me.

I said this in a whisper, but Chay caught it.

Chay: Really? Is that what you think? As I remember I was the one who came to you after finding out you were using me and still tried to give you a chance. I was stupid enough to see the best parts of you. Even if they were fake.

I see a tear escape his eye and run down his cheek. Without thinking, I place my hand on the side of his face, and wipe away the tear. Time seems to stop for a minute. Chay and I look into each other's eyes. Seemingly forgetting all the pain between us. I start leaning in to kiss him and he steps back.
