17: Goodnight

I woke up in someone's arms. I opened my eyes to see-

"JUNGKOOK! Put me down!" I screamed.

"Woah, woah! Calm.. I only held you up because you were unconscious." he said, putting me down gently.

"Oh- I, thank you. I don't know what happened I thought I-"

"You saved my life." 

"I- did?"

"Yes. Gomawo. I owe you mine." he said, with a soft voice.

"I.. No, you don't. I just did what I thought was the right thing."

"Yes. Which was saving my life. Which is why I owe you mine."

"I- araseo. But it really didn't mean anything. It's fine really."

"I won't be rude anymore. After all I did, you still saved me. I can't thank you enough." there was no pitch to his voice. It's almost like he didn't want to admit it. I saved his life..

"Thanks, for uhm, dropping me home." he offered to drop me home. I said no but he insisted. Really insisted.

"No problem. Here's my number. If you need help." he mumbled loud enough for me to hear, he placed a piece of paper in my hands. They were so warm. His hands, I mean.

"Oh, I- araseo." 

"I'll go now. Goodnight." he said, plainly.

"N-night." I was a bit nervous by his words. I still couldn't believe I- I saved someone's life. Him out of all people..

I laid down on my bed, shocked and anxious for tomorrow. How would I face him? Did he really want to protect me? Did he mean what he said? There were too many questions and no one could answer them except him.

I stared at the slit of paper tightly held in my hand.

I added it to my phone but I didn't dare text him. I never will. I hope.
