Anticipation

He looks so beautiful.

Hyungwon noted as the wind gently tousled Hoseok's hair.

And he belongs to me.

Hyungwon held Hoseok's hand tightly as they walked past countless cafés. He turned to look at Hoseok, who was busy fiddling with the GPS on his phone.

"Are you sure we're on the right street?" Hyungwon asked, scratching the back of his head. He had never gone on this path before.

Hoseok nodded. "It should be right ahead." He pointed to a neon sign at the end of the road.

As they hurried down the path, Hyungwon couldn't help but feel nervous. He had never gone to a club before. He wondered how it would be like.

I'm imagining lots of people and lots of booze.

He shuddered. He had never been a fan of large parties. But for the sake of their third anniversary, he'd agreed to go to a club. It was about time he went to one anyway.

"Wait for me outside."

Hyungwon watched as Hoseok disappeared into the shadows of the pub. He tried to catch a peek of how it looked it on the inside, but the dark tinted glass didn't allow him to see much.

As he stood outside, he realized there were a bunch of men staring at him. They weren't talking, but they were smoking, and standing in a very intimidating position.

Hoseok, please come out soon.

Hyungwon shifted his weight onto his other leg, uncomfortable at the unnerving looks the men were giving him.

He never felt more relieved when Hoseok emerged from the depths of the pub with a wide grin on his face.

"I've got the exclusive passes. We'll come back at night." He said, putting an arm around Hyungwon's waist, oblivious to the strange men who seemed to be closing up on them.

Hyungwon forced a smile. He glanced back and realized that the men were slowly approaching them.

He grabbed Hoseok's hand began dragging him away. "My favorite drama is starting...let's go." He made up a lame excuse in order to get away from here.

He wanted to leave this place behind, and never come back.

He couldn't imagine coming back at night when it was dark. Evil could be lurking around the corner and he would be none the wiser.

For Hoseok, I'll try to be a bit braver.

He gritted his teeth and continued dragging Hoseok home.
