Locked Away

•27•

Hongbin's POV

"Hyuk please" I fall onto my knees and lift him into my lap. His chest is covered in blood. It's everywhere.

"I'm sorry for everything. I'm really sorry Hongbin. This is all my fault" he apologised and I fall apart.

"You aren't going to die on me. I won't allow it. You promised that you wouldn't leave me again."

"I was a dick to you. I didn't deserve you" he ignores me completely and my heart just shatters.

He knows that he isn't going to survive. Hearing him talk like this, it kills me.

"I love you so much Hongbin."

"Hyuk ah. Don't you dare die" I try to speak firmly but my voice breaks halfway through.

He raises a hand and cups my cheek. I turn my head into his palm and savour the feeling.

"Did I ever tell you how handsome you are?" he smirks and I chuckle softly.

"Yes. Yes you did. And you will tell me again tomorrow, and the day after that."

His eyes begin to close and I shake him, causing him to open them again.

"Stay with me" I exclaim and look over at Wonshik. "Have you called an ambulance?! We need help!"

"They will be here soon" he says and frowns at the sight of Hyuk on the ground with me.

"W-Where's Jaehwan?" Hyuk suddenly asks. I'd forgotten that the kid was living here now.

"He went out to see a movie with one of his friends. He should be back soon" Wonshik explains and Hyuk makes eye contact with me.

"Please watch over him. Do it in my place" he pleads and I promise him.
"Of course."

Taekwoon holds the girl against the wall firmly as all of this happens around him. He is keen on this girl being locked away. He isn't the only one.

"I hate the taste of blood" Hyuk states as a thin line of blood begins to drip down the side of his mouth.

"No, no, no, no" I begin to say over and over again as his eyes slowly shut once more.

"You will find someone else who will treat you way better then I ever did" Hyuk says softly. He is struggling to stay awake.

"Don't say that. You are the only one who I will ever have."

"Don't lie Hongbin. Don't lie" his voice turns into a whisper and his eyes drift to a close.

"Hyuk ah" I call out and shake him slightly but he doesn't budge. His hand falls from my cheek to the floor.

"Hyuk ah" I shake him a little more harshly but he stays still. I check his pulse and my heart shatters.

He's dead.

I raise his limp body against my chest and hold him tightly against me as I sob uncontrollably over his shoulder.

"Hyuk ah" I continue to call out his name, but he doesn't respond.

Hakyeon's POV

I get back to the house and am surprised when I see Hongbin isn't there. He sent me a message saying that he was finishing work early so why isn't he here?

He probably went to visit Hyuk. I would not be surprised if that were the case. Any how, he should back soon.

I throw my phone onto the bench and take off my jacket before taking a seat on the couch. I lean back into the cushions and turn on the TV.
