Fourth's hands trembled as he ran, his feet barely touching the ground as he fled the mansion. He didn't even know where he was going-he just needed to get away, to escape from what he had seen. His heart pounded in his chest, but there was a hollow, numb feeling that had already settled deep within him.
He shouldn't have looked. He knew it the moment he peeked inside door. But the sound of Gemini's voice, that familiar tone he could recognize anywhere, had drawn him in, like a moth to a flame. His curiosity got the better of him, and now he was paying the price.
When Fourth reached the café, he was a ghost of himself. His movements were mechanical, his expression blank. Gun, who had always been quick to notice when something was wrong, glanced at him from behind the counter. But with the café bustling with customers, there wasn't a moment to ask him what had happened.
"Fourth, can you clear table six?" Gun called out, his voice tinged with concern as he watched Fourth shuffle around, almost like he wasn't fully there.
"Yeah," Fourth mumbled, barely registering what he was saying. He moved automatically, clearing tables, wiping down surfaces, but all the while, the image of Gemini kissing that girl kept replaying in his mind. The passion in Gemini's eyes, the way he looked at her... Fourth had never seen him like that before.
Why did it hurt so much? It wasn't like Gemini belonged to him. But seeing him with someone else felt like a punch to the gut, and Fourth didn't know how to deal with the pain.
As the café began to empty out and the night drew closer, Fourth had completely forgotten that he had invited Joong to work on their song together. When Joong walked in, Fourth greeted him with a weak smile, trying his best to seem normal.
