JR was never happier. He had a well-paid job, had his own apartment and was living with the one he loved the most. His life was perfect in his eyes. What he didn't know was that there was someone watching them, or his boyfriend to be exact.
Ren has always been one of the popular boys. He was handsome, nice and clever. His looks also had disadvantages: he looked so innocent that many tried to taint him and one of them nearly raped him. That was the day Ren met JR. You could say that it was love at first sight.
One of these men was still following them anywhere when they leave their safety zone. Always lurking in the shadow, never seen. He watched Ren's every move, watched the way he clung to JR and the way he looked at his boyfriend. The only word that described what he was feeling was pure jealousy. No one knew why he was so obsessed with Ren, only himself. He growled and wanted to tear JR in shreds. Unfortunately, this wasn't an option. "There has to be a way to separate them..." he thought. "No one can get Ren when I can't have him!" the stalker swore before he ran off again.
On their third anniversary JR decided to plan a date at the park. He knew that his boyfriend loved the park and being outside, as long as he isn't alone. He always felt there was someone following but every time he turned around he saw no one.
Strange... is it just me or are we never alone?
It's better when I don't tell Lulu...
He intertwined their fingers and held Ren as close as possible, feeling as if he needs to protect his boyfriend.
What he didn't knew was that the follower couldn't stand seeing the couple being lovey-dovey and ran away, leaving the couple alone. JR relaxed visibly and the two young men carried on with their date without being disturbed.
What neither of them knew was that the stranger was looking for a way to end their relationship. He ran as fast as he could to the only library in town. The stranger had no idea what he was looking for, but he relied on his feeling.
He went to the back where the really old books were and looked at each of them. No book seemed special and the stalker nearly wanted to give up on his mission.
Suddenly he spotted a book that made him feel drawn towards it. As he took it out of the shelf and looked at it, he saw that it was a book about black magic. The stranger knew that he couldn't be seen in the back and that he was all alone with the librarian. He opened the book and he was even lucky enough to find a spell that could help him with his mission.
A spell that can make everything and everyone....
Sounds interesting. No one can get Ren like that.
The stalker was determined to end their relationship and decided to curse the older one of the couple.
In the meantime, the couple arrived back at their apartment and were smiling brightly. They had no idea that the time as a happy couple ran out and that they should be grateful for every second they spend together.
It all started the next day as Ren wanted to get a glass of water. Just as he lifted the glass, his fingers disappeared and the glass fell onto the floor with a loud, shattering sound.
Alarmed by this noise, JR woke up and ran into the kitchen, seeing chaos. Ren was standing in the middle of the kitchen, surrounded by shards and holding his hand. But he knew that something wasn't right with his lover, Ren wasn't that clumsy. He walked over to Ren carefully and took his hand, noticing something that went beyond his imagination. His fingers were missing. JR looked at Ren, horror clearly evident in his eyes and asked, "what... why? How is that possible?" Unfortunately, Ren didn't know either and started to think.
Why me? What have i ever done? I was always nice to everyone...
That's when it hit him. Baekho! This guy was one if the people who asked him out before. Just like to everyone else, Ren said no nicely and it looked like Baekho didn't give up. A shiver ran down Ren's spine at the thought and he whimpered. JR heard and hugged his love immediately. He had no idea what is going on but he knew that Ren needed him and that he should be there for his boyfriend, no matter what happened.
The days went on like that and every day a little bit of Ren disappeared. One day it was his left hand, the next day his right hand. But JR never went away from his side and helped his as much as he could. He decided that he wants to go on a last date t'with his boyfriend before it's too late. Just as they arrived at the park, they saw a familiar person. Baekho walked over to them with sá smirk and said, "Look who is here~ isn't that our dearest Ren with his boyfriend?" JR growled and glared at the other. "Don't tell me that it's your fault that Ren is disappearing!" Baekho didn't answer but laughed. This was all it took for JR and he punched Baekho right in the face. However, before Baekho could have hit back, JR ran back to the apartment with Ren.
Days went on and soon only Ren's head could be seen. Never the less, JR acted as if he was still complete and brought him to bed. He sat down on the chair next to Ren and waited for the other to fall asleep. While he was waiting, he fell asleep himself and dreamed of all the happy moments that they shared together. He never thought that he would wake up all alone but that's what happened.
