NuNew's POV

I was pushed as my back hit a wall making me fall against it while the masked man walked towards me, holding a knife.

I breathed heavily, was I about to die?

Am I gonna get stabbed to death..?

"P-Please, don't hurt me!" i begged.

"Hey!" a familiar voice yelled out making me turn to see Zee, running towards us.

"Fuck, your lucky tonight, NuNew."

I shuddered a breath, the voice..

It was.. So familiar..

He ran as Zee tried to continue running after him as I called him, "Zee!" he stops his tracks, turning to me.

I shook my head 'No' because he'd get hurt again, despite the blood still on his face.

"Are you okay? Did he hurt you?" he says worriedly.

"C-Can we just go now..?" i shake in fear, I literally thought it was my end.

He sighs, walking closer to me as he hugged me.

Tears suddenly left my eyes, hugging him back. "I-I thought I was going to die, Zee.." i sniffled.

He caresses the back of my hair, "I know.. I know, and I'm sorry, i tried to get here as fast as I could."

I shake my head, "It's okay.. We should go.." i pull away as he wipes my tears away with his thumb.

"Come, let's go to your apartment.." i nod.

Zee's POV

He could've died.

He could've fucking died.

Fuck.

That masked man, I was sure it was him.

Russell.

"I'm so fucking sorry, boss." i whispered to myself.

"I will try my best to protect him at all cost, I promise." i sigh deeply.

"Zee?"

I looked up to see NuNew, looking at me while holding his kit.

"Are you okay? you were, saying something just now.." he sat down beside me, "It's nothing NuNew, I was just.. Worried as hell that man could've killed you earlier.."

"Yeah.. It was scary.."

"Do you perhaps, know him..?" he says, looking at me with those doe eyes.

I look down for a moment before replying, "No."

"I.. Also don't know him." he looks away, "Oh."

"Don't think about it too much NuNew, for now, I think you should treat me first.."

I point at my still bleeding face, "See?" i chuckled. He nodded,  "I'll put some ointment on it.."

He moved closer to me as I felt his hot breath on my lips, making me lick my bottom lip as he carefully puts some ointment on the side of my eye.

This random feeling..

What was this..?

"Done."

I cleared my throat, looking away.

"Thanks.."

"Do you wanna sleep here for tonight?" he suggested, standing up from beside me as I look up to him.

"Where will I sleep?"

"You can sleep beside me." i rose a brow as his eyes widened slightly, realizing what he just said.

"I-I'm sorry, i didn't mean to say that so straightforward."

I chuckled, standing up "What's wrong with me sleeping beside you?" i walked closer.

He looks up to me before replying, "Do you.. Want to?" i shrugged, "I don't know, do you?"

"I guess.. You can." Hm, i was expecting for him to say nevermind but, I was liking the tension now.

I smiled.

"Okay, where's your bedroom?"

He pulls my index finger slightly as he took me to his bedroom.

"Here." i looked around, it was quite empty.

He didn't have that much stuff.

"Alright."

"Do you wanna change your outfit too?" i look down to him, "No thanks, I'll wear this." he nods.

"You can.. Lay on the bed and rest, I'll just take a shower." i nod, walking towards his bed as I sat on the side of it.

Net : What? Good thing you came as fast as you could boss!

: Yeah, otherwise he would've got stabbed to death..

Net : Aishh, you should do better next time! you made him walk home alone.

: Whatever, Net.

Net : Oi, you said you two are sleeping on the bed together right?

: Yeah, why.

Net : 😏

: Ugh, Net. Just what the fuck is wrong with you.

Net : Hahaha, just kidding boss~ But what if..? 👀

: You never change.

I turn off my phone, sighing as I placed my forearms on NuNew's balcony.

The fresh air caresses me before footsteps was heard from behind making me turn to see NuNew, barely half awake.

"Why aren't you still asleep Zee..?" he spoke softly.

I turn to him completely, walking close to him.

"And why are you not sleeping?"

"I was, I just.. Couldn't.."

I look down to him as he rubbed his eyes tiredly. "Nightmares?" he nodded.

I sigh, turning him by the waist as I spoke, "Come now, let's both go to sleep."

He walks back to the bedroom while I followed him from behind.

I resisted the urge to smile, not when he was being..

Cute.
