KaiSoo Fanfic: Dancing with the Devil

Chapter 3 - Slipup

"How could I be with reality when even reality itself can't rescue me." -Kim Jongin

"Others think you're completely insane! What do you think you're doing?!" Mr. Lee was losing his temper right now.

"Probably...I'm insane. Is there any problem with that?" Jongin replied in a calm voice. "They say I killed Luhan hyung, now Sehun. Do I look like a total bullshit? A murderer?!" His voice suddenly raised.

A sudden flash and everything flinched all of a sudden.

"What happened to you?" Luhan asked with his most sincere voice. He was crying while standing in front of Jongin. "You know I don't like to see you like this. Defenseless."

"Hyung, I'm fine. There's nothing to worry about. Just hyung, please come back to me."

"미안해. 할 수 없는." (Sorry. It's not right.)

He lifted his eyes and bright lights drifted to his sight. He woke up and realized he's on his hospital bed. He tried to move, but he can't. His body was fatigued. On the other side if the room is a man standing, looking outside the windows, gazing at the bright city lights and the busy street of Seoul.

"어떻게? (How?) How did I get here?"

"Oh. You're awake. 어떻게 지냈어요?" (How are you?)

"Who are you? Why am I here?"

"Too many questions. I'm Zhang Yixing, Chinese. And you're here because you fainted a while back because, the doctor said, you're tired and stressed. You need to take care more of yourself. I think you've been through a lot."

"I'm okay. I need to get out of here."

"Is it true?" Yixing asked. Jongin stared at him.

"About what?"

"That..that you killed someone?"

"And your just like the others believing that I killed someone?" Yixing didn't respond. "I have no freakin' care if you do." he continued as he removed the needle on his hand.

"No. I believe you." Jongin can't believe it. Someone believes in him.

"Great. I don't need you." He replied coldly.

"And I knew your Luhan hyung believes you too." Jongifelt a sudden shock inside him that made him stop.

"L--luhan hyung? You know him?" he asked with bare curiousity.

"No, I don't. But I heard you while you're asleep. You're calling his name. And--"

"Shut up. You don't know him so don't act like you do, dammit! I need to get out of here now." Jongin stood up and was about to get out of the room.

"Hey! Wait! The doctor said you still need to take a rest. You aren't strong enough." Yxing tried to convince him not to go.

"I can stand, I can walk, I can do whatever I like, and I can kill. Is that what you call weak?" Jongin changed from his hospital dress, opened the door and continuously left the room.

"B--but.." Yixing followed him. He had no idea where he's going.

Jongin can't admit that his body is pretty weak. His feet couldn't stand straight and can't support his body that much. He needs assistance yet his pride won't let him divulge that he's feeble. While he was walking outside, he almost fell down but gladly there's someone behind his back to support him.

"Be careful. I told you, you aren't strong enough. We better get back to the h--"

"Hell no! Why are you following me anyway?! I don't need your help, stupid." He tried to stand up and continue walking.
