Our New Fate

Chapter 28: Words that can hurt

Song used in this chapter: "Lightning In A Bottle" - Eli Lieb

(Guys, I'll probably update the following chapters without revising them anymore  - Don't get me wrong I did revise them a long time ago but I was doing it all over again... - the thing is I don't have time anymore, maybe I'll continue to do it someday, but for now I'll just post them as they are. At least I think from now on they are not as bad as the previous ones were. That being said, please forgive me if there's some strange words - and you can tell me if you see them - But I'll rather finish updating them here then making all of you wait months for it.)

"Time to let go

Let them fall like dominos"

"You've already drank enough," Joon Hee said annoyed, taking the bottle of soju away from Yoon Jae's hands. An hour had already passed since they sat at the table close to the entrance after Nam Soon found them at the dance floor. Pierre followed them around and apparently now he had become Yoon Jae's best friend - blame the alcohol for that.

"Okay, Mommy," Yoon Jae teased causing Pierre, who had also drank too much, to laugh loudly, taking the last shot of the soju that Joon Hee just took away from Yoon Jae's hands.

"Mock as much as you want, but I'm not going to take care of you if you puke in our apartment," Joon Hee complained, but Yoon Jae seemed outraged.

"Oh, nice to know, you take care of him," he blurted, pointing to Nam Soon that kept quiet in his place, "...when he is drunk, but when it's your boyfriend you do this?" He complained and Joon Hee just smiled, apparently now finding it a bit funny.

"Oh, that's why you stopped drinking?" Pierre asked, staring at Nam Soon at his side, who shook his head.

"Not really..." He shrugged, but didn't continue with the subject. He didn't want to talk about it but apparently Yoon Jae did - or perhaps he was too drunk to think rationally about it.

"Because alcohol can't cure his lovesickness," he mocked and Nam Soon rolled his eyes as Joon Hee stared at him accusingly for talking too much.

"Lovesickness?" Pierre repeated, "Is that why I'm being rejected today?"

"You better give up," Yoon Jae made gestures with his hands, ignoring the pushes Joon Hee kept giving at his arms, trying to make him stop talking. "This one is a lost cause."

"I think we should go," Nam Soon said, standing up without waiting for them to answer. He really didn't want to bring this subject up today, especially not with someone he barely knew.

Joon Hee stood up after him, making both follow along. But they indeed seemed to have drank too much, since Yoon Jae stumbled on his feet and had to get hold of the table to not fall. Joon Hee sighed in front of him and put his arms around his shoulder to help him to walk.

Nam Soon really didn't want to do this, but apparently it would be too uneducated not to be the one to help Pierre now.

Getting away from the club was a tough job but after walking a bit more Pierre seemed to be getting more balance.

"You know, you could give me a chance to cure your problem," he smiled ignoring the fact that Nam Soon was rolling his eyes - however he also smiled, so he seemed to be getting along with it.

"And how would you do that?" Nam Soon mumbled, waiting as Joon Hee came behind them - apparently Yoon Jae was a bit drunker than Pierre, since Joon Hee seemed to be having much more trouble carrying him.
