"Hey, Soonyoung," Seokmin said, grabbing the attention of the boy in the bed across the room "you definitely aren't the killer right?"
"Of course not, why would I do that? Whoever's doing it is completely insane," Soonyoung replied, his voice sounded sleepy and exhausted. "They just want Seungcheol dead, but are killing the rest of us for fun,"
"It does sound a but stupid," Seokmin agreed. "What if you really do die next, Soonyoung, then who will talk to me late at night?" Soonyoung didn't answer him, he instead just stared at the ceiling; his eyes were wide open, Soonyoung was really starting to think that he was going insane. "Soonyoung?"
"What? Oh, I don't know, Seokmin. I guess you'll just have to talk to yourself - or one of the others." Soonyoung gave him a half-hearted response.
Soonyoung didn't really now what would happen when he died, he saw dying as the end - there's nothing else after that, the thought made him go mental. Thoughts like 'who is it?', and 'why would they?', and 'when will it be my turn?' clouded his mind and made it hard to think.
"Soonyoung, you sound stressed," Seokmin said "Just go to sleep - everything will be okay," Soonyoung sighed and rolled over so he was facing the wall, he knew it would take along time for that to happen but he appreciated Seokmin's concern. "Good night, Soonyoung," Seokmin asides a sing-song voice.
"Good night," Soonyoung mumbled.
The two of them woke up the next morning, neither of the really want to get up. They would've rather just stayed in their bed, but Seungcheol insisted on going on an outing to celebrate Jihoon's birthday - even if he wasn't here to actually celebrate it.
Everyone remaining had piled into cars, Seokmin had gotten into one car way before Soonyoung had even left the house; leaving him clueless as to which one he was in. Not really caring he entered a car and dearly hoped Jeonghan wasn't in it - he wasn't really up for more sarcastic and blunt comments on things he already knew.
He breathed a sigh of relief when he saw that only Wonwoo and Might were in the car and decided to this moment as an opportunity to get his feelings out,
"That wall is really like an abyss," Soonyoung said, suddenly. Wonwoo raised his eyebrows,
"What wall?"
"The one next to my bed," Soonyoung answered, "I didn't get a wink of sleep last night because of it."
"You're just out of it Soonyoung, this whole killer thing is doing that to you. You need to take better care of yourself," Wonwoo pointed out, Minghao nodded in agreement.
"Well, I'm glad that at least somebody here cares about my mental health and doesn't tell me to just get over it, and it that I'll die soon anyway." Soonyoung's voice became more annoyed as he kept talking,
"Did Jeonghan say that?" Minghao inquired, Soonyoung's eyes narrowed and he nodded "That's not very nice of him."
"You don't say," Soonyoung spat. Minghao reached over and squeezed Soonyoung's hand, "Thanks, that's the kind of support I could use these days."
"What about Seokmin?" Wonwoo suggested, he had figured Seokmin was the only reason why Soonyoung was still partially sane - and he was right but, the more concerned Seokmin gets; the more he keeps pushing himself away because he's scared of what Soonyoung could do.
"I think he's given up, mostly," Soonyoung sighed. Minghao stuck out his bottom lip as far as he could manage to and Wonwoo let out a disgruntled noise. "I wouldn't worry about me too much though, we all know my insanity will end soon,"
"Yes, but Soonyoung; being in a good mindset helps you a lot," Wonwoo pointed out, "It's a whole lot nicer when you're okay, anyway."
"I don't really think it helps but, I don't think you're next." Minghao added, Soonyoung gave him a weary look - almost as if he wanted it to be him, it scared Minghao a little. "I think it might be Jeonghan, I feel like him being next has been foreshadowed for quite a bit," Soonyoung heart sank.
As much as Jeonghan was pissing him off, he didn't like the idea of him dead - especially when they aren't really on the greatest terms.
"I'd much rather it be me," Soonyoung mumbled "but yeah, whatever you say."
