I was still so shocked by the fact that hongseok was here. In Japan.
Of course I was happy. But sill so surprised.
- I think she's too surprised.
Shinwon said.
- maybe you should have told her before.
Yuto said.
- yeah I mean she almost looks scared.
Hui said.

- why are you guys talking like I'm not even here?
I asked.
They just laughed.

- I hope you're not mad I didn't tell you about coming here.
Hongseok said.
- I'm happy.
I said.

- are you going to let us in or what?
Hui asked.
- sorry..
I said, and moved away from the door, giving them space to enter.

Everyone was inside now, except me and Hongseok.
- I saw you on the plane.
He said.
Oh god.
- I also saw you laughing at an old woman.
He said.
- I wasn't...
I said nervously.
- it was kinda cute.
He said.

We went inside, and I showed everyone to the rooms they could stay in.
The housekeeper had gone to bed, but she had told me all the rooms upstairs could be used. There was so many.

Hongseok was about to go to a room with Shinwon, but I stopped him in the hallway.
- do you want to stay with me?
I asked him.
- of course.
He answered.

- are you hungry?
I asked him when we got to our room.
- We ate just before we got here.
He answered.

We laid down on the bed, just looking at each other and stealing kisses.
I had missed this so much.

- did you cut your hair?
Hongseok suddenly asked me.
- what? No.
I said confused.
- I haven't seen you in a few days. But it almost felt like years.
He said and laughed.

I suddenly got the joke.
- that's hilarious.
I said.

After a while, I felt dehydrated.

- I'm going to get some water, I'll be right back.
I told him.

I went down to the kitchen, and got a bottle of water from the fridge.
I was about to go back upstairs, when Kino suddenly appeared, making me jump.
- you scared me.
I said, and laughed awkwardly.
- is there WiFi here?
He asked me.. kind of coldly.
- yeah, the password is written on that note.
I answered him, and pointed to the counter.

He didn't even say thanks. He just looked at the note, and left.
It was like he was.. angry at me.

Great.
But I hadn't done anything?

I went back upstairs, and walked back to the room.
Hongseok was getting ready for bed.
He was putting on his pajamas.

Nice.. abs.
damn it. I was getting those inappropriate thoughts again.
But it wasn't really that inappropriate anymore though.

- ...I was thinking maybe we could stay up a little while longer.
I said.
- what did you have in mind?
He asked me.
I felt really awkward because I didn't really know how to say what I wanted to do.

I suddenly remembered I forgot to bring my water bottle upstairs.
- I forgot my water..
I said, and left the room in a hurry.
Damn that was really awkward.

I was walking in the hallway, a little scared. All the lights where off, and I almost couldn't see anything.
And I felt like someone was here. In the hallway with me.
But I kept walking until I reached the stairs.

I stopped, because I got the feeling like someone was behind me.
I was about to turn around, but someone touched my back.

And then I fell. I fell down the stairs.

It didn't hurt too much when I landed on the floor downstairs. it wasnt like in the movies at all. if so, i would probably be dead.

it was like the fall had nocked the breath out of me.
what was i gonna do in this situation? scream for help? or awkwardly walk back to my room, pretending it didnt happen?

no. i couldnt. because it wasnt my fault that i fell..someone had pushed me.

i was so certain of it. and that person was upstairs, right now. i had to find out who it was before they dissapeared...
but i still had trouble breathing, and i couldn't really get up. maybe someone would look for me. but no one did, which gave me time to think about who it might have been that pushed me.

was it Rena? i mean, that was the most likely scenario, but at the same time, i knew she wasnt that petty. maybe someone had done it by accident. no.. someone defently did it on purpose.
why can't i figure out who would do this to me? maybe because i still didnt understand what i had done to deserve it.

did i eat someone elses food..again? I always did that..

i suddenly heard a noise. was someone finally coming down to look for me?
it didnt sound like it. actually it sounded like the front door opened and closed.

- hello?
i said, getting kind of creeped out.
it was pretty late. and dark. it totally reminded me of that night i thought that serial killer was at my door.
I wonder if they ever caught him..

- what are you doing on the floor?
seunghee asked.
- when did you get here?
i asked her, as she helped me up from the floor.
- just now.
she said.
Right.. obviously.

seunghee looked better than i had expected. she seemed cheerful. maybe it had been a good idea to stay at her brothers apartment after all. im sure she finally got some closure.
- you didn't answer my question.
She said.
Right.
- I... fell.
I said.
Wait why am I even lying?

Seunghee was laughing, something that didn't surprise me.
- don't laugh.
I said.
- but it's funny.
She said.
Then she started laughing again.

- it's not fucking funny!!
I kind of yelled.
I usually don't swear.. I kind of makes me feel ashamed.
- damn... what was that?
Seunghee said, looking amused.
She always found me hilarious when I got mad. Actually everyone did.
- someone... someone pushed me down the stairs.
I said.

Seunghee looked surprised, and then confused.
- who would do something like that?
She asked.
- I don't know. I need your help to figure out who.

AN: damn I just got a Nancy Drew feel.
