I never got into his business, so why did he make it his mission to get into mine?
For years upon years he has sent me home in tears due to his harsh words and aching bruises that litter my skin like paint.
I thought I could escape him by attending a totally new and out of the blue university, only to find out he will also be attending. So much for getting away.
"Erin, you idiot, are you even listening" I had decided to re-read my study notes out in the school garden. I only sat in silence for 10 minutes before Chanyeol decided to rudely interrupt me.
"What the hell are you talking about?!" I spit back before realizing my own actions. He's going to hurt me now.
"Please I'm sorry" I speak immediately as I place my hands in front of my face to protect myself from the blows I'm about to receive.
"What are you doing?" His voice seemed a little offended as I pull my arms down slowly from my face.
He still stands a few feet away with his hands wrapped around his back pack straps before staring at me with gentle eyes.
What is going on with him today?
"I didn't mean- I-" he stutters as his eye drift down to the ground as his foot kicks up the little dirt speckles on the pavement.
"Are you okay? Do you want me to take you to the nurse' office?" I offer
He's acting weird today.
Maybe it's that massive bruise that stains his right eye. Or maybe it's his busted lip from last week's fight. Either way, something is up.
"Why do you do this to me?" He asks accusingly and I place a hand to my chest in disbelief.
What the hell have I done?
"Excuse me?" I ask rudely as his face contorts in pain.
"Why do you keep hurting me?!" He raises his voice and for once I struggle to process his words.
Me? Hurt him? More like the other way around!
"You stupid idiot" I spit as I show him the multiple bruises covering my stomach.
"I don't want to-" his voice starts to break as his face contorts and tears escape from his crinkles eyes.
Loud sobs escape his mouth as his body bobs down and he hunches over slightly to try hide his face.
How embarrassing this must be.
"What the hell?" I ask annoyed as I push myself from my spot on the bench before placing my hands on his shoulders in reassurance.
"I never wanted to hurt you" his voice is barely audible but somehow I manage.
"What are you saying?" I ask with a long sigh.
I can hear his deep sniffle as he lifts his head slightly to meet eye contact with me and for once I don't dread staring into the those dark eyes.
"I really like you" he says slowly.
A loud cackle escapes my lips as I fall from my bobbing position to one on the ground.
"That's funny" I breath, but Chanyeol doesn't seem to appreciate that.
"I'm serious" he says honestly as he regains his composure before placing both hands on my waist and pulling me from the ground.
His hands are so warm and large, I feel like a small doll in his grip and he holds me so delicately.
"I want you to be mine" he speaks as he pulls my small figure into his large one before placing his head into the crook of my neck.
"I know I've done bad things to you but I didn't know how to explain, I have tried for so long to not like you but I can't help myself- I, Chanyeol like- no, love you"
By the end of his small speech I'm left breathless as he connects our lips.
