~ BOOK 2 of Levels of Love ~

It walks through the crowd below with an easy, almost arrogant, stride, beanie pulled low over its forehead. But not low enough to hide its piercing, cold eyes. I don't know why but my breathing sudd...
I was meant to update earlier but I've been so caught up and the boys are looking so good!! We all know B.I is my bias forever but is it just me or is Junhoe getting impossibly cuter??? He just kills those lyrics. But B.I's rap in B'Day gets me every time. XD
That's the media!!
A heads up - I wanted to make this chapter full of fluff and everything cute but the story line has to keep moving so I apologise for that.
This part is dedicated to juttastichlberger as a thank you for supporting these stories!! :)
Some Hanbin trying not to get this heart broken.

Hushed and angry whispers rouse me from a fitful sleep and it takes a few moments to gain my bearings. Easing myself up onto an elbow, I rub my eyes clean of sleep and peer at Meli and Jakob who are standing at the foot of my bed. They're in the middle of what looks like a very passionate argument, both jabbing angry fingers and Meli's face is streaked with tears.
"What's going on?" I mumble, still not completely awake. "What's wrong?"
They both turn to me with eyes so wide I'm actually frightened.
Sitting bolt upright I ask again, "What the hell's happened?"
They trade a look. It's a strange one. A mix of pity and what seems to be desire. Bile rises up in the back of my throat as I recall the early morning deal I struck with the Prophet and how Meli and Jakob have been having a thing for a few hundred years now. Well, I'm not exactly fresh merch but that's a whole different situation.
"GUYS!" Now I'm irrationally angry.
"CeCe, please", Jakob purrs and moves around the edge of the bed, closer to me.
Without meaning to, I shuffle away slightly but he doesn't seem to notice. Sitting down on the edge of the bed he reaches out and takes my hand, clasping it in both of his large, warm ones. I watch him silently.
"This is a hard time for all of us", he eventually continues, "For you especially, I understand that. But Meli and I'll do everything we can to protect you. We'll always be here for you. You know that, right?"
"Yeah. I know that", I say curtly, "Just tell me what's going on."
Out of nowhere Meli starts to wail loudly and I rip myself out of Jakob's grip to pounce on the tissue box and hold it out for her. I swear on my existence if Meli's crying over Jakob I will personally make sure he never saunters into another room again. I think my eyes must be saying this loud and clear because Jakob holds up his hands and says, "Geez, CeCe. I haven't done anything."
