Outlaws

TWENTY THREE

"I had no intention in doing anything" She stutters.

"Then stop it. Now I am soaked and I don't have any clothes to change in. You owe me Valex's hoodie for now" I say and take off my shirt to try and dry it to wear it tomorrow.

"So many scars..." I hear her say and she traces the scars on my back.

"I'm just like you, you know" I say and keep my head down.

"I'm sorry for everything you had to go through" She says putting her forhead on my back.

I turn around to face her and she looks at my chest.

"I'm guessing this is a knife cut?" She asks.

"It's a belt. Continueously hit at the same place by my father" I say and she takes her hand and traces it with the tip of her finger.

"You have been through worst than me. I shouldn't even feel bad for myself. I'm sorry" She says and hugs me.

"You have been through a lot yourself and still stayed strong through it all" I say and make her look at me.

She looks at me with those puffy eyes and the next thing I know, is that my lips were on hers. She inflicted the kiss, I guess it was in the heat of the moment since I ended up deepening the kiss. She wasn't backing away. I couldn't help it. I guess that liquor she drank partially got to me too. Next thing I know, I ended up closing the shower by bumping into it and I stopped the kiss there. Due to all the drinks she had, she passed out. She was still in all her clothes and I couldn't leave her all wet. So I went to get some clothes and came back. I changed her without taking her undergarments off and not looking at her. She still needs privacy even if I already saw her partially half naked body. I brought her into her bed and tucked her in. I took of my pants and took a towel to dry off my body and boxers. I went back on the couch and took the blankets to cover myself from freezing and fell asleep.

*Chaerin's pov*

I wake up the next morning with a huge headache and nausea. I hurry to the bathroom and end up throwing up in the toilet. I guess I drank a bit to much last night. The last thing I remember is that I was looking at Judy saying to me I should stop drinking and that's all. I have no idea how I got back, not even how I got changed. Wait? I am in different clothes? I never change clothes when I am drunk. I wonder who changed me? I get back out of the bathroom thinking about how I ended up like this and I see Changkyun sleeping on the couch and Hyo Rin and Baekhyun in the kitchen cooking together. I go in the kitchen and stand there waiting for them to turn around.

"Oh hi Rin. How did you sleep?" Baekhyun asked me.

"Aweful. I kind of kept something from you guys. When you were all sleeping, I left" I said.

"We kind of figured. You still smell like alcohol a bit. How much did you drink" Hyo Rin asked.

"Enough to eventually end up hospitalized" I said and looked away.

"Hey! If you plan on dieing while drinking, you seriously need help" Hyo Rin said hitting me.

"Don't worry. I don't plan on going to the hospital yet. Anyways I have to get ready" I say.

"Why is that?" Hyo Rin asks me.

"My step father. He is comming today and I know the security guards will come get me" I said pissed.

"Chaerin, if you want to, I'll come with you" She told me.

"I think it would be best. I can't confront him at all. I'm terrified" I finally admitted.

"Did she just admit she was terrified?!" Baekhyun asked surprised.

"It's very rare she says this. This is how I know she really needs me" Hyo Rin says and comes up to me and hugs me.

"Everything will be alright if I am with you alright" She says trying to comfort me.

"Thank you. We will probably get called in a bit too so we got to get ready fast" I say.

"Sure thing. I'll go get ready. Stay with Baekhyun for now I guess" Hyo Rin says and goes to get changed.

"I guess once you will be called, Changkyun and I will be going back to our dorm" Baekhyun says while finishing up breakfast.

"It's fine Baekhyun. You don't have to leave since we will be comming back shortly I guess. I am not staying there that long, that's for sure" I said sitting at the table.

"You really hate him do you" He says concerned.

"The amount of pain and sorrow I have delt with, I for sure hate him. He's done unspeakable things that will never be forgiven" I say clenching my hands into fists.

Hyo Rin walks into the kitchen and comes to sit next to Baekhyun. We eat the meal that Baekhyun and Hyo Rin made and leave some for Changkyun who is still sleeping. The phone rang to indicate that we had to leave and so we did.

"I guess it's time for us to go" I said and got up.

"See you later" Hyo Rin said to Baekhyun and she followed me.

We walk to the meeting point and I start to stress really badly. Hyo Rin stops me and hugs me. She tells me that everything will be fine and we leave to go inside. Someone escorted us the where my stepfather was and he gets up from his seat to look at me and sits back down dissapointed. Hyo Rin sits next to me and grabs my hand under the table to help me stay calm.

"You still do wreckless things even if your locked up in a place like this I see" He says with a mean tone.
