Beauty and the beast

Fifteen

"Shh.... shhh... It's okay?" I hear JeongHan coo as he wraps his arms around me and caresses my cheek with his thumb. My mind is racing as I try to piece everything together. Seeing him beat that man till there was nothing left sends my mind on a wild goose chase only to find some way to end this horrid image. "I am sorry... babe I am so sorry." He whispers in my ear before kissing my cheek.

"Mina? W-what...?" I utter pulling away from him letting my eyes search his face. "What happened to her?" I ask bitting the inside for my cheek to stop the tears that threaten to fall. I don't know why I care so much for this girl I never met. Let alone know. But something in me can't seem to function without knowing what happened.

"Eun Bi..." he sighs as his eyes poor into mine.

"JeongHan." I say challenging him. And he lets out a sigh of defeat before opening his mouth to speak.

"She... she was caught okay? She is why I have nightmares. Not because I saw my mom killed... it was the way they killed Mina. T-they raped her and cut her... they hung her and left her for us to find." He says through his teeth as his chest heaves up and down and his face turns red. "All I can see is her hanging there. With cuts all over her face, arms, legs... she was covered in bruises.... when they did an octopusy they told us she was raped by those fuckers. They fucking raped my sister. She barely even knew who she was or what she was. I wish I could take her place. I wish I could suffer for her. I wish..." he cried before I cut him off covering his mouth with mine. I know it's not the best time to be kissing him but it's the only way I know how to stop him from crying and remembering all of it.

Groaning in to the kiss he pulls me father up his lap by my waste. His nails digging into my hip causing me to hiss. "Sorry," he breaths breaking this kiss resting his forehead on mine. I shake my head against his, I wasn't really hurt but surprised. "Eun Bi?" He questions as his hand wraps around this back of my head letting his thumb rest in the side of my ear.

"Yeah."

"I really like you... and I want to make this work. That's why I showed you that memory. I want you to understand me." He says he rubs his thumb on the side of face.

"I like you too." I smile at him and he smiles back. He is really beautiful when he smiles or not being a jack ass. "Just don't be an asshole."

"That I can't promise." I laughs before bringing my head to his for a sweet kiss only to pluck my forehead. And I roll my eyes at him.

"I hate you." I whine as he lifts me up in his arms while standing. "Put me down." I whine once more, throwing my arms and legs around as he walks in to the bathroom. Placing me on the toilet seat.

"Stay here." He instructs as he walks out of the room closing the door behind him. "Don't come out!" He yells through the door and I just smile to myself. Maybe this whole roommate thing will work it's self out.
