I've Never Dreamed

Part Twenty-one

Everything's dark.

"Mei?" I open my eyes and witness Baekhyun hovering over me.

"I'm fine, Baek. Where did everyone go?" I sit up with help from Baekhyun. Did she just call me Baek?

"You just passed out, so you're clearly not okay" I use his shoulder to stand up, "Everyone's out looking for that guy and your family. We assumed that they couldn't get too far, so they rushed out. Sehun is in your hotel room right now, looking for a trace of anything helpful" He has this worried look on his face that makes me uneasy.

"I can stand by myself, Baekhyun" My right leg goes out on me and I slip. Annoyed with him, I huff as Baekhyun catches me.

"See, you need my help" I let him take me to the couch.

*Reality hits Mei*

"Oh my gosh! They have them! I have to go to that damn dinner party tomorrow!" I cover my face with my hands frusterated. "How did he know where I was staying? I didn't tell anyone" I'm so confused.

"Did anyone see you or your brother go into your room" She must've told someone by  accident or something.

"No...wait, the hotel employee! He saw me walk into my room, but he was also there when I got that interview from GOT7. Why was he there then though?"

"It sounds like he was stalking you" Where is this stupid prick?!  

"Ya think?" I sit up, putting the peices together. "Okay, so I remembber that all of the men that were in the alley wore suits, he ws wearing a suit too. Both times we encountered, so he is one of them. Aish!" I shout.

"What?!" She startled me.

"Why wouldn't my stupid brother just tell me why they want him? It doesn't make any sense"

*Just as Baekhyun attempts to say something, his phone rings. He looks at the name and it reads Suho. He answers it immediently.

"Anything?" Baekhyun asks just as Sehun walks into the room.

I meet eye contact with Sehun and he rushes over to me holding something. "You need to take 2  of these" He opens a pill bottle and pours 2 pills into my hand. I nod to him and take them straight out.

When I was younger I got diagnosed with Syncope. It's when your brian gets too stressed and you black out. It's not as serious as it seems. This was the first time that I have fainted in like...two years.

"Okay, so they found them, but they were already in the car driving off. Lay pulled out his phone and took a picture of the car's licence plate, so when he gets back he's going to edit the photo so we can read it clearly" Baekhyun says.

"Lay is the shit" Sehun let's out of his mouth, "here" Sehun hands me my pill bottle and I rush to slide it under the couch with out them noticing. I don't want Baekhyun to know anything about my condition. I don't know why, but I just don't.

"Are you going to be alright Mei?" Sehun asks me worried.

"No, they have my family" I stare at him. I wasn't talking about them... Sehun thinks to himself confused.

"What are those pills for?" Baekhyun asks staring down at his phone.

"What pills?" I ask, purposely sounding confused.

*Mei's stare sends chills down Sehun's spine, and he instantly knew not to say anything to Baekhyun about her meds*

"Okay, nevermind that" Baekhyun stands up, still not looking at me, and goes into the kitchen. He literally just had me in his arms, and he's still not looking at me! What the hell did I do to make him upset?

*Sehun notices this and stays to himself. I think Baehyun's done with her...I think that means I have a chance. Sehun mentally slaps himself when he realizes how selfish his thoughts were. Mei's literally missing her family and he's thinking about getting with her.*

"I'm just going to go in my room until they get back" Sehun's now skittish. I nod in approval and he fast walks into his room. I instantly turn my attention to Baekhyun who's just standing in the kitchen. I gather up my courage and walk over to him.

"Yes, Mei" He holds out a glass of water staring at the ground.

"Thank you, but I'm not thirsty." I take the glass anyways.

"You need it to flush down the pills, or else they'll come back up in an unpleasent way."

"O-okay" I drink the water, avoiding eye contact with him now.

*Baekhyun's blocking the sink, so Mei's having a hard time trying to get to the sink with out bothering him*

"Just give it to me." As he reaches for the glass, his hand gentely grazes mine. This sends a shock through my body, but from what it looks like Baekhyun hardly noticed.

It's so hard to hide my feelings. Her touch is rushing through my body as if god just spoke to me. I love her so much, and I hardly know her...love at first sight if I say.

"Why aren't you looking at me?" I ask without thinking.

"What do you mean?" He turns his head to the right looking towards the living room.

*Mei takes it apon herself to move closer to him. Baekhyun is up against the sink and can't move. Mei's body isn't touching his at all, but if she was to laugh she'd touch him.*

"What did I do wrong?" My voice is scratchy. So much stuff is happening right now, added on to my mixed emotions with Baekhyun. I just want him to hold me and tell me everything's going to be fine, but he wont even look at me!

*On the other hand. Baekhyun's nerves are spazing out. His heart's racing his thoughts at an impeccable pace. Everything's about to come spilling out.*

"Nothing, you did absolutly nothing." Baekhyun calmly smiles and looks up into Mei's eyes.

My eyes shoot down to his lips. I immediately step back. "Then why are you acting so distant?" 

Baekhyun swallows his spit. Having Mei that close to him with such a determind look on her face, he was incapable of moving. "I-I was just thinking..." Here goes nothing, "We only have another week and a half in this hotel, and I don't want to get too attached to you, to just have to leave..." He notices her eyes piercing on him, "and I know you're in a bad state right now, and I'm not making it any better by acting like this, but I just don't want to look at you knowing-"

"Stop talking." I pull Baekhyun by the wrist and drag him right outside off the front door of the hotel. I'm now staring him down. I'm speechless.

"I was confessing my-"

*Mei cuts him off with a kiss. Now this kiss wasn't just any kiss. It was filled with love and sadness. Baekhyun then starts kissing her back. Both having mixed emotions, Mei backs off him*

"My brother and my best friend are kidnapped right now and I'm kissing you. This doesn't seem right..." I nervously laugh, backing away from him, but suprisingly he pulls me back. Yet right when I thought he was going to kiss me, he pulled me into a tight and meaningful hug.

"We'll get them back tomorrow, I promise." Baekhyun whispers in my ear sending chills through out my body. I've never trusted in someone's promise, but his promise is trully promising.
