I laid in bed with Kyungsoo that night. I had my eyes closed as He played with my hair and rubbed my back gently. My shoulders were tense and my heart felt heavy with guilt.
I reached for my phone for what felt like the millionth time that night and Kyungsoo gently put his hand on mine to stop me. I sighed and retracted my hand. "Baby, it's okay to be worried, but he's probably asleep by now. It's almost 3am.. Maybe you should go over to see him tomorrow." Kyungsoo comforted. He had been better about Baekhyun, accepting that I had others to focus on sometimes, and trusting me to be loyal to him. I had been concerned about Baek ever since he left the karaoke bar. After we had spent an hour or so with Chanyeol, we parted ways, and my mood dropped as if it had been thrust off of a skyscraper.
"I know I'm worrying too much but I can't get it off of my mind." I whispered. "I'm really worried, Soo. Something was seriously wrong. He won't answer a single call." Kyungsoo pulled me close to his chest and I felt vibrato as he pacified me, "You can't save everyone, Y/n. Sometimes, they have to help themselves first."

The thing is that I already knew that. I already knew that some people couldn't be helped, and that I'm not Dr. Phil, or a therapist at all. Even if I couldn't save everyone, though, I wanted to. I wanted to help everyone who is sad, and I wanted to be the light in the lives of people who only see darkness.

Kyungsoo understood that better than most anyone could. He had always had a bad case of perfectionism, to the point of going on no sleep for days to study for an exam, or practicing his tap dancing until his feet cramped before a recital. He knew what I was feeling, but it's hard to comfort someone with advice you can't take from yourself.

Kyungsoo watched me carefully before sighing deeply. I felt his chest rumble and looked up at him. He propped himself upright, and looked at me with a daring smile. "Let's go for a drive."

We loaded up in his black Maserati and before starting the car he looked over. "Y/n. Seatbelt." He commanded while putting one hand on my seat. I nodded, obliging and buckling up, and he started the car. He turned to check his blind spots, and he backed up, giving me a view of his prominent jawline tensing from the strain. I watched his eyebrows furrow as he carefully pulled out of the driveway and onto the road. He turned the radio on and handed me the aux. "But Soo.." I mumbled, "you don't like the same music as me." He chuckled, the sound bouncing through the car, and his dimple played peekaboo as he smiled one of his big, cheesy smiles. Shaking his head, he replied, "Sure; I might not like all the same music as you. How about you show me some that you like best, and try to change my mind?" My eyes brightened at the idea and I played some bops. (A.N: *kokobop blasts* iT GOES DOWN DOWN BABY)
I turned on Blackbear, knowing how much he loved his music, and we sang dramatically to Do Re Mi. He clapped his hands and moved his head like a girl who was about to clap another girl for talking to her boyfriend and I wheezed at the sight. He clicked his tongue and sang, "Pay me back or BITCH ITS OVER!" I laughed loudly, "Fuck it up, Thugsoo!" He turned to look at me, face full of mock anger, and I hunched over laughing at his soft face being contorted that way.

He looked over to me laughing and his eyes became crescents as he smiled with me. He stared for an uncomfortable amount of time, staying still at a stop sign, and I asked him, "What are you staring for?" He came out of his 'trance', and looked me over. "You're just so.." he started. I looked at him with an eyebrow raised. Kyungsoo glanced at me with a straight face, "So weird and you look like an alien." I punched his shoulder, "Watch it, Dumbsoo. I might be small but my dick energy isn't." He scoffed, "Your dick energy is microscopic until I get you alone." I did a dramatic gasp, grabbing the door and his chair to steady myself. "Me?" I whined, "First things first; I have the BIGGEST of the dick energy so screw you. And second; your only scary feature is your glare, and that's unintentional most times." He rolled his eyes and focused on driving.
We drove for a while, listening to whatever music I picked and feeling air blowing from the open windows. I propped my elbow on the door and looked into the darkness of the night peacefully. Trees passed, as did miles. The moon smiled down on us, as if it knew how much we needed the love. I had always found comfort in the stars that always seem to move with me, no matter what bad roads I took.
Taking a peculiar backroad, we came upon a shady convenience store and I was visibly uncomfortable as he parked in the lot in front of it. "Soo? Why are we here?" I asked hesistantly. "You know I wouldn't bring you anywhere dangerous, baby. I had an idea. You trust me, right?" Kyungsoo asked me. His gaze was tender and genuine, and I didn't want to disappoint him. "Duh, of course I trust you. You must really be Dumbsoo after all." I mocked. He turned off the ignition and got out of the car. He came around and opened my door. I pulled him close to me, holding him in my arms, and whispered, "If I get shot in here, I'm gonna come back to life just to haunt you." He pushed himself off of me and rolled his eyes. "Just get outta the fuckin' car before I abandon you in the woods."

We walked into the store and a bell sound echoed throughout the empty building. I looked around nervously, seeing no one inside, and Kyungsoo grabbed my hand.

Kyungsoo went to the counter and rung the customer bell. Footsteps came from a back room and approached closer until a big guy game out.

"Kyungsoo? What a time to visit, it's not even light out yet." the man said sarcastically. Kyungsoo bowed, "Nice to see you too, Seahoon." The man rolled his eyes, "We don't work together anymore, at least call me by the right name." I felt more comfortable hearing the banter, and knowing they must be close.

"Who are you?" the man asked. Kyungsoo hesitated for a minute before looking to me and saying, "She's very close to me." I smiled and bowed, "I'm N/n, nice to meet you." He returned the favor and introduced himself as Sehun. "What are you doing here so late?" Sehun asked us. "This lovely girl needed to clear her head, so I thought of what cleared mine." Sehun thought for a minute, then nodded knowingly. "I got you. Wait here. I'll bring out the best I got."

Weird ass cliffhanger for a weird ass audience. Sorry for taking so long, as always. On a scale of consistently updating, I'm probably about Jungkook level. I got another chapter coming, eventually. 12 fortnites will probably be pass but what can do-
