"Let's go"
He raises an arm to point out to his house, ignoring my soft murmuring.

I gasp for air as I come back to reality, my trembling hands tightly gripping onto my elbows.

"Go"
Baekhyun's tone is stern as he demands, his hand reaching towards me only to give me a slight push.

I forcefully stumble forward, pain that I'm already way too familiar with, spreading through the soles of my exposed feet.

My eyes are fixated on the house as we walk past the gate and towards the door.

I already know that with every step I take, I'm leaving a bloody trail of footprints but I can't do anything.

The air is heavy and the atmosphere screams danger and wickedness. The quietness makes me even more alert and uncomfortable.

It feels so dead here.

With Baekhyun walking behind me, I unwillingly head towards the porch, my steps small and agonizingly slow.

I slightly pause once I'm in front of the wooden steps, my heart pounding right out of my chest.

I squeeze my eyes shut as I lift my trembling leg to take another step, my breathing deep and heavy.

I swallow the lump in my throat as Baekhyun quickly steps forward to unlock the door, pressing his palm against the hard surface to push it open.

"Welcome home, babe"
His sinister voice fills my ears as I'm pushed into complete darkness yet again.
