Rustling. That was the first thing he heard when he opened his eyes. By the lighting in the room, he could tell it was too early to be awake and he wasn't a morning person, so when he was woken up, his first instinct was to yell at whoever it was that dared wake him up, but he suddenly remembered two things. One: He lived alone and Two: it was way too early for someone to visit him, so he knew something was up.
'oh shit,' he thought.
This was like one of the movies he had seen before. But he was not stupid, he wasn't going to check out what the sound coming from the kitchen was. He stayed silent for a moment. Maybe he was hearing things and it was all in his head, but that thought quickly went away when he heard a loud crash come from his living room. He jumped from his position on the bed, much to his body's protest.
Going out through the front door was out of the question, so he quietly walked over to the sliding door in his bedroom that lead to the balcony. No way in hell was he was dying tonight, so he went out to the balcony. He quickly slid the glass door shut as he pondered what to do next. His apartment was shit, so there was no fire escape ladder he could use to get down and get help. He should sue the landlord after this. And would it not have been for the fact that his apartment was on the fifth floor, he would have jumped off. And also his dumbass left his phone in his room and he was not about to go back in there, so there was only one thing he could do and that was to rely on his neighbor. He couldn't just jump into his next door neighbor's balcony because he would most surely die, so he grabbed the nearest thing closest to him, a broom, and he held one end as he knocked it into his neighbor's door. Hopefully he would wake up.
Seungcheol was woken up by a loud lose coming from his balcony. He choose to ignore as he turned around and drifted back asleep, it was bound to stop in a few seconds so he paid no mind to it. After a few seconds, it was evident that the noise was not going to stop on its own. He cursed under his breath as he got up and rubbed his eyes before he walked hazily over to the balcony. He opened the blinds as he looked outside. It was dark and all he could make out was the small amount of light that was reflecting from the moon. He jumped when he saw a stick like figure hit the glass.
'What the fuck,' he thought as he slid open the door and stepped out.
"Oh, thank god," he heard a someone say as he turned to the direction of the voice. It might have been dark, but it was bright enough for him to make out who it was. It was his cute next door neighbor, Jihoon.
"You do know it's like five in the morning?" he said as he checked his watch that he forgot to take off when he headed straight to his bed after a long day of work.
"Nevermind that," said Jihoon in an urgent whisper.
"I need your help."
"At five in the morning?" said Seungcheol as he yawned, ignoring the urgency in Jihoon's voice.
"Yes, at five in the morning!" said Jihoon as he kept on looking behind his shoulder.
Seungcheol sighed. He contemplated whether to go to bed or help him out with whatever it was. He ended up choosing the later(and it wasn't because he had a crush on the smaller male or anything).
"What is it that you need my help for?" he asked as he looked onto the others balcony.
"There's someone in my house," said Jihoon.
"Well, that usually happens when you have someone over," he said as he yawned.
"No, you dumbass. Why would I have company over at this time?" he asked.
