The Experience ~discontinued~

Chapter 4

Vernon POV
_______________
I looked at Rocky, and she seemed surprised by my black eye. It all started after she left me alone that one night.

FLASHBACK TO THE NIGHT BEFORE
_______________
I was sitting on the bench sad from what Rocky had said before. I didn't know how to make it up to her. I heard foot steps coming my way and I looked up out of curiosity to see who it was. I saw my soon to be ex-girlfriend. My mouth dropped. Why was she here? She never goes out at night. But she was with someone. He was a big, strong man. I stood up from the bench. My eyes were a faded pink from crying. She eventually approached me.
"Hi honey! What are you doing out so late?" My girlfriend, Jinhee, asked me.
"I would ask you the same question." I replied. She looked at me for a second.
"Are you out here alone or are you with someone?" She seemed extremely curious.
"I was out here with a few friends... that shouldn't be a problem though, cuz I see you have friends too." I gestured to the tall, strong man sitting next to her. He grunted. That was weird... I thought to myself. Jinhee cleared her throat. I looked at them with a confused look.
"What friends?" She asked me.
"A few people from the band and a few friends I just met.." I responded.
"What were the new friends names?" I knew then I was in trouble. "There was Soo Jung, Mi Na, and..." I didn't want to say her name, because it broke my heart. I had to force it out though, "Rocky." She looked at my closely. She took a deep breath a took a few steps back. The big guy grunted again. He took a few steps forward. I started to cry. Not because I was scared, but because I couldn't be a brave man and face him. Be a man to prove to Rocky I was good enough. The big guy cracked his neck and hit me right in the face. It was numb for 3 seconds, then I could feel the pain. It was like a million bees stinging me at once. I fell to the ground and moaned as I held the spot he punched. Then I heard them walking away. I was left there sobbing.

PRESENT

I told Rocky the whole story. She was still sitting next to me, but was soon was kneeling on her knees. She looked at me with teary eyes.
"Please don't cry." I asked, as I started to get teary eyes myself. She smile and sniffed. She stood and walked around the corner into the kitchen. I stayed where I was. She came back with an ice pack. I took a deep breath as she put it on my face. "You don't have to help me. You were right, I am a jerk." I looked down but Rocky immediately grabbed my chin to look into my eyes. Instead of looking into my eyes, she gave me a sweet, long kiss. She eventually pulled away.
"No," she said panting, "you are not a jerk. S. Coups told me everything. I'm sorry for the way i reacted. I should have listened instead of-" I cut her off by kissing her once more. I pulled away panting.
"You talk too much." I said. She giggled and cupped my cheek as she put the ice pack back on my face. I took a deep, relieving breath. She put her forehead on mine.
"I'm sorry." She said with a shaky voice.
"For what?" I asked knowing there was nothing to be sorry for.
"I should have listened. Instead I was rude and selfish. I'm sorry."
"Hey hey hey!" I looked her in the eyes. "I am the one that should be saying sorry. I should have told you and i have no excuses." I looked into her watery eyes. She nodded her head.
"It's ok. All that matters is you are here now." I agreed. All I wanted was a relationship where I had someone I actually loved. Rocky then realized S. Coups and Eliza were still out in the hall, so she went out to get them and tell them they can come in.

I slowly opened the door quietly. I peeked out in the hall, and spotted S. Coups and Eliza sharing a kiss. I closed the door quietly and went back into the room to get Vernon.
"Venom come here! I need to show you something!" He got up and followed me. I slowly opened he door, but before I opened it all the way, I turned to him and put my finer in my lips to tell him to be quiet. He nodded and I opened the door a little more for him to stand by me and put his head by the door to look out in the hall. When he saw what I saw, he came back in with a surprised look.
"Did you see it?" I asked full of curiosity. He slowly nodded. He liked his lips like he was scared. "Are you ok?" I asked with concern.
"Huh? Oh! Y-ya I'm fine." He smiled at me. I took a deep breath.
"You aren't ok. What's wrong?" I asked.
"Ok." He sat on the bed and I sat next to him. "S. Coups hasn't had the best experience with relationships. His last one ended with his girlfriend cheating on him. And the one before that treated him like a slave, or her personal servant." He sighed, "I don't want to see him get hurt again."
"Eliza won't do that though. She hasn't had any relationships at all. As far as I know..." I then slipped into my own thoughts. Was she in any relationships? She never talked about her life. We either talked about my life or Taylor's.
"Are you ok?" Vernon snapped me out of my thoughts.
"Y-ya." I reassured him. He smiled. He put his hand on my shoulder.
"Come on. Let's go get them." I smiled at him and we stood to head to the door. Vernon opened it quickly to bring them in.
"Hi!" I heard S. Coups say. I sat down on the bed, knowing Vernon had it under control.
"Hi," Vernon responded, "You can come in now." He started backing up to let S. Coups and Eliza in. I just sat on the bed, waiting for them to come in. It wasn't long before they came in and sat on the bed with me. Vernon sat next to me, and the others sat by the bed frame. We talked for a little bit, getting to know each other.
A few hours later, someone was at the door.
"I'll get it." S. Coups said. He went over and opened the door. Soon enough everyone that was in the hall, was in the room. There was at least 11 more people in the tiny room. They looked at Eliza and I like we were some kind of alien. I looked over at Eliza and she looked like she just saw a ghost.
"What's wrong?" I asked.
"Nothing. I'm just tired. I'm going to go." She responded. I stood and went after her. She was already walking to her room. I jogged to catch up to her as I was calling her name. I eventually reached her, and I grabbed her arm to make her look at me. She was crying.
"What's the matter?" I asked her.
"A person that made me move to Korea is in that room."
