Y/N: What? How do you know him??

Seen at 3:27 pm

I waited for a response, but there wasn't one. I put my phone down and sighed.

Great, now he's not responding to my text.

I decided to forget about what Daniel had asked me for the day, so I texted my friend, Jiyeon.

End of conversation

Once I put my shoes on, I heard a loud honk outside of my house. I immediately knew it was an impatient, hungry Jiyeon outside.

*HONK

*HONK

*HONK

I sprinted out of the house, nearly tripping after each step. "Ok! Ok! I'm here!" I panted, opening the car door.

"DId SoMEonE Say FoOd?!" Jiyeon babbled.

I laughed at Jiyeon's weirdness and excitement as she drove to the restaurant.

As Jiyeon slowed the car down, confusion overwhelmed me as I questioned Jiyeon. "What is this?"

"Daniel's house" she replied, smirking. "He's a full snack."

I smacked Jiyeon on the arm and giggled. "Ow!"

"He's mine" I teased.

Before we could leave to actually find food, a sound grabbed our attention. Glass breaking. Then there was a shout. Jiyeon looked at me with fear in her eyes. "Was that-"

I looked at the window and saw a tall shadow fighting against another shadow, slightly shorter. I got out of the car and rushed to the the front door.

"Daniel and Vernon."

"Wait how do you know?" Jiyeon asked, following me.

I ignored her question and banged on the door, scared of what was going to happen next.

"Open up!" Jiyeon cried as we both knocked on the door repeatedly. There was no response besides grunting and yelling.

My dumb self thought the door was unlocked, but it wasn't. The door clicked open as I turned the knob. Jiyeon and I ran inside, both letting out a scream. Vernon was throwing punches at Daniel.

I jumped in-between them and tried to stop Daniel from punching Vernon back. "Stop it!"

I looked down to see a broken vase on the ground, blood surrounding our feet. Jiyeon saw the blood too, her face turning pale. I hesitated for a moment as I looked up at Daniel. His lip was bleeding and his cheek was bruised. He looked down at me and said, "Everything is going to be alright, Y/N."

My heart stopped to his calm response of me panicking. I started to feel calm too, until Vernon pushed me to the side and punched Daniel again.

I shouted and reached my arms out, hoping to grab Daniel somehow.

Jiyeon started to take a peice of action and pushed Vernon away from Daniel. I quickly grabbed my phone out from my pocket and dialed the police just to scare Vernon away. He saw what I was doing, so he ran out of the house and left. I sighed in relief, but I saw how much pain Daniel was in. Vernon crushed him to a pulp.

Daniel held his arm. His arm was swollen and purple.

"Jiyeon, please start the car. We need to take him to the hospital," I demanded as I approached Daniel.

Jiyeon nodded and ran outside.

"Everything's going to be alright," I comforted.

He snickered at what I said. "Isn't that what I told you earlier?"

I smiled. "I guess so."

Daniel and I looked up as Jiyeon walked inside. "The car is ready" she confirmed, walking back outside. I gestured for Daniel to follow and turned around.

"Wait" Daniel blurted, grabbing onto my wrist.

I turned back around and looked at him.

"There's something you need to know about me," he confessed. "I-I'm not who you think I am."
