I was blowing the hot liquid in the tube when a giant shadow appeared from behind me.

"You blow good."

"Shut up."

"Are you mad?"

"No."

"Do you want another one?"

I hissed and glared at him when a droplet from the tube fell on my forehand. I've been avoiding him since what he did earlier. He could have done something different except 'that'. It was far from what I thought he could do. He was vulgar and a silent molester. After I got inside his mansion earlier, I quickly ran my way to his basement to make the formula in front of me that Chanyeol was weirdly staring at it as he placed his face on his palm and his elbow on table.

"Drink it while it's warm. It would help to make your body temperature warm just like everyone." I turned to face him. His eyes are just like as always, charming. Yet the images of what he did earlier flashed in my mind. It's madness. I was flustered and surprised or maybe mad. I don't know what to feel. He's cold. Literally and the least I expected to be the warmest was his lips.

It was unexpectedly warm. However his body is not.

"What is your relationship with my cousin?"

Oh Sehun. The reason why he's gone is because of me. The only person who was willing to sacrificed just for me. The person who was willing to wait when I said I wasn't ready yet.

"He's a very special friend." My voice unexpectedly cracked and I got flushed. I ignored the sudden twitch of his eyebrow and walked passed him.

"I'll be taking a nap. Don't forget to drink that-"

I yelped when he took my wrist and turned me around.

"You're both in a relationship."

He muttered. I don't care if he knows that we had a relationship before. But what I don't get was the sad look in his eyes. He was standing in front of me. He was looking at me earlier but his eyes were already fixated on the floor and his grasp on my wrist loosened. I'm going upstairs. That's what I planned. However, the melancholic expression on his face left me standing there.

"Chanyeol we forgot to buy our food stock." Finally, his eyes met mine. My feet shifted too much, getting uncomfortable.

"I'll drink that formula then I'll get back to the market-"

"Then let's go-" I was stoned on my place when the words he said resonated to my ears.

"alone."

I should be sleeping right now. The bed is soft and the sheets are surprisingly fragrant. However, I'm feeling uneasy and my eyes were wide open the whole time. His expression only changed after I answered his question about me and Sehun. But I don't get it. Why would he get hurt by it? It doesn't concern him.

I sighed and decided to just wait him downstairs. Seconds felt like minutes until minutes felt like hours while waiting for him. I was getting nervous. What if somebody familiarized his face? That will be a pure shock to everybody thinking someone's back from the dead.

I found myself pacing back and forth until a sound of shattered window blasted from the kitchen. Chanyeol knows where the front door is. Unless... hunters!

I tiptoed towards the wall between the living room and the kitchen. I carefully peeked and beads of sweat started forming on my forehead. A man in black coat was silently walking in the kitchen while observing the area.

What should I do? I looked at the stair case. If I went back upstairs, the hunter could hear the creaking footsteps that I can make. I was trembling and my knees were shaking. I'm scared to die young. I never even experienced sex what would I be, a dead virgin? Maybe I can hide behind the staircase.

I did. But every second passed, the hunter's audible footsteps could be heard. I was bent down. I don't want to take a look. What if he noticed me? That will be the end of me. I was startled and quickly covered my trembling lips with my shaking hands. The staircase creaked. It means he is heading upstairs. Please don't look down.

"Well, I just saw a hiding puppy." I shivered. It was the hunter's sinister voice. I'm scared. Too scared to move. If this is the real end of my life, then I have no choice. I'll wait for the pain to gush over me. I shut my eyelids close not minding the hunter's teasing words of dying.

"Die, Mr. Byun."

If wishes are true just like how the formula possibly worked, then I only have one wish.

"Save me Chanyeol."

Waiting for your death is nerve wrecking. Tears were already on my face and my knees were getting stiff with my position. Grunts, groans and scream similar to the hunter's voice echoed and I flinched. What happened? It should be me who was screaming in pain.

"Hey, you okay?" That low-deep voice. I didn't need to look at who could be the owner of that voice. My wish came true in instant. I sat up from the floor and launched myself to the man who was crouching down to my level.

I couldn't stop from crying. I nearly lose hope. The damp dress shirt of Chanyeol indicated that I cried too much but I don't care. It's not as if it's important. What's important is that he's here and I'm saved.

"I thought I was going to die, Ch-Chanyeol." I whispered between my sniffs. My arms were clinging around his neck. He pulled me up and helped me stood up on the floor.

"I'm sorry I'm late." He said.

"C-Chanyeol..." We both stayed in that position. Clinging on him as he only held me by my waist. My eyebrows scrunched up after a while. I pulled a little away from him and stared intently at him.

"Y-You're warm."

"Then it worked. You succeed again beagle." He chuckled and brushed my hair up away from my wet face.

I punched his chest but he didn't react like he didn't get hurt at all.

"What was that for? After I saved you earlier, that's how you're going to pay me?"

"You called me like I'm a dog." I glared at him yet he didn't reply. Instead he only chuckled like it was something interesting. It was his second time calling me like a pet with a pet name like. I hate it. I dislike being called with many names. I pushed him harshly and turned my heels away from him

"That's not how you pay a debt."

Scenes earlier faded from my head. The hopeless thoughts of living have vanished. Just by his soft pair of lips that was moving against mine fogged my mind and for a minute I was in heaven. I forgot every little detail about how my life is so miserable and the warmth from his hands on my face made me felt as the very or most important person in the world.

"That's how you pay a hero, Baekhyun."
