Disappointment

Hoseok followed her quietly. Tears were welling up in his eyes.

I'm the worst boyfriend in the entire world. Why did I even bring Hyungwon here? I should never have come back.

He followed her to a private lounge.

Inside were a large sofa and a table with drinks.

"I'll take over from here. You may leave." She dismissed them with a wave.

Turning to Hoseok with a devilish grin, she tossed her purse onto the floor. "Now we have fun."

She poured herself a shot and downed it in one gulp. "Want some?" When Hoseok didn't reply, she shrugged and screwed the bottle lid back on. "Your loss."

She pushed the straps of her leather dress down. She leaned forward and kissed Hoseok.

Her hands went straight to his shirt buttons. She unbuttoned his shirt quickly and pulled it off him. "Get on the sofa like a good boy." She folded his shirt neatly.

Hoseok sat down on the sofa as he was instructed. At this point, he didn't even feel anything. Looking at up, he glanced at Red.

"Do anything you want to me. Leave Hyungwon alone."

She scoffed. "Of course, I'll do whatever I want." She got down beside him and began trailing kisses down his neck.

He closed his eyes, feeling the tears pour down his cheeks. I'm so sorry, Hyungwon.

When her hands reached the waistband of his jeans, he sat up and pushed her off. "N-no, you can't do that." Red stood up and dusted her hands on her thighs.

She shrugged. "Alright. I'll call my man over and your precious one dies. Is that a deal?"

Hoseok curled his hands into fists. Be brave, Hoseok.

"Okay, okay, I'll do it...just leave Hyungwon alone...I beg you."

She threw her head back and cackled. "My, my, what a scene. Hoseok's actually begging me!"

Hoseok fought back the urge to hit her. Just get it over and done with, he whispered to himself, then Hyungwon will be fine.

As he slowly undid his belt and unzipped his jeans, he began to cry. He felt so guilty.

Wiping his tears away with the back of his hand, he started to see images of Hyungwon flash before his eyes.

When Hyungwon came to visit him at the hospital for the first time.

When Hyungwon kissed him for the first time.

He lowered his head and cried. He couldn't get those images out of his head. But the life of the very person he loved with all his life was hanging on a fine thread.

Eyes filled with tears, teeth gritted, he slowly entered Red.
