Be Mine - 19 Days FanFic

What Happened?

After a dreamless night, Mo Guan Shan slowly opened his eyes. However, it seemed his right eye didn't want to open any further than a small slit. When he moved himself into a seated position, he found his whole body hurt. He wasn't sure what was going on.

Looking around the room, he found everything looked like it was in it's rightful place, so why did he feel like everything had changed?

His bedroom door opened and He Tian walked in in just his underwear and with a mug, he stopped when he noticed Guan Shan was awake. He froze and waited to see what reaction the boy would give, but Guan Shan made no move; he just stared back. Guan Shan felt uneasy with the searching look He Tian was giving him and he shifted in his bed. Feeling his wrist burn, he looked at it and saw a red line run all the way around it. Frowning, he looked at his other wrist noticing the same thing. He looked up at He Tian and asked a question he knew He Tian had the answer to.

"What happened last night?" His lips felt dry and cracked when he moved them.

He Tian closed his eyes and frowned a little, looking troubled. "You don't remember?"

"If I did I wouldn't ask, would I? Dipshit." Guan Shan was feeling uneasier and more uncomfortable by the second.

He Tian closed the door behind him and walked over to Guan Shan's bed. He put the mug down on the desk and sat on the edge of the bed near Guan Shan's pillow, until they were almost face to face. "Look, I'm not the most sensitive person and I've never been in a situation where I've had to comfort someone before. But for you, I'll try my hardest."

The redhead shifted again. "What the hell are you talking about? Why am I covered in marks and why is my eye swollen?"

"You don't remember because your brain doesn't want you to. Are you sure you want me to tell you?"

Guan Shan's heart was racing. What the hell happened last night? And why am I so terrified to find out? Guan Shan grabbed He Tian's shoulder in almost a desperate way. "I need to know." He cleared his throat, trying to sound braver than he was. It didn't work.

He Tian slowly reached out and held onto Guan Shan's arm, just below the elbow. He twisted his body until he was turned to face his Redhead fully and braced himself for the outburst he was sure to come. He spoke slowly and carefully. "Last night, you were attacked. Two dangerous men broke into your house and hurt you badly. It was-"

"Jun Katsu." Guan Shan mumbled, his eyes glazed over, his mind going back to the previous night. He was remembering and He Tian let him drift back to the dark memories that had tried to bury themselves. "And that other guy, Zhong Xiu. They were in this room. Touching me, taunting me. He hit me over and over again. He had a camera. Filmed it all. Tied me up. He was going to-" He cut himself off, his face growing more flushed with every word he spoke. He Tian watched him closely, making sure he didn't go too far and too deep into his thoughts.

He continued to mumble. "They stopped. Why? Ma." His eyes widened in realisation. "Ma! Did they touch her?!" He started to squirm then, his grip tightening on He Tian's shoulder. His breathing increased and his face was bright red.

He Tian grabbed his other arm and shook his Redhead. "Hey, that's enough. Auntie is fine. They didn't touch her, Guan Shan." When it seemed the redhead couldn't hear him, He Tian pulled himself closer. He held Guan Shan's face and pulled it close to his own. "Guan Shan! Look at me. Look at me." He demanded.

Slowly, Guan Shan's eyes came into focus and he looked into He Tian's eyes. Tears flowed silently down his face as his breathing slowed down. He Tian felt his heart beating rapidly in his chest, the guilt weighing down on him. He closed his eyes and placed his forehead against Guan Shan's.

"I'm so sorry this happened to you. This shouldn't of happened to you. It's all my fault." He Tian whispered.

Guan Shan gently pushed He Tian back a little. "What are you talking about? It's not your fault."

He Tian let his hands fall from Guan Shan's face to hold his arm again. He looked away. "Actually, it is. I've got a dark past I don't like to talk about. Jun Katsu is from my past." He Tian's eyes went hard. "He attacked you because of me. Because of something I didn't do."

Guan Shan frowned. "I remember asking them why. He gave me different reasons."

He Tian looked at him. "What do you mean?"

It was Guan Shan's turn to look away. He swallowed back the tears as he recalled the man's words. "He told me it was because I attacked Jian Yi and his friend Zhan Zheng Xi. Said it was because I pissed off someone close to Jian Yi."

He Tian processed the words. This was Mr. Jian's doing? He let this happen? So does my brother know? Was he a part of this too? If he is, I'll kill him too.

Guan Shan continued. "He also said it was because of my father. He never said what happened, just that he knew my dad. My dad probably sold him out or something before he went to prison." Redhead shrugged his shoulders in a tired way. Guan Shan looked up at He Tian. "But he did mention you. He said you humiliated the person that let them do this to me."

He Tian's hand tightened around Guan Shan's arm. The guilt let up a small amount knowing he wasn't the only reason for what happened. He would go after all those who hurt his Redhead and every person who was involved, even if it meant his own brother. After everything his brother had done, he wouldn't let this one slide.

"What did you do?" Guan Shan interrupted He Tian's train of thought. The question held no hostility, but was just a simple question. It was through this question that He Tian could hear that Guan Shan didn't blame He Tian for what had happened. If anything He Tian knew Guan Shan blamed no one but himself.

"At this moment, it doesn't matter."

Guan Shan pushed He Tian, a scowl marring his features. "Are you fucking serious right now?"

"Yes. At the very moment in time, it doesn't matter. But I will tell you what happened. I just don't think you can handle everything all at once. You need time to process what you went through. I will tell you everything, but you need to wait." Guan Shan glared at him, visibly upset. He Tian reached over and grabbed the mug that was sat on the desk. "Here, drink this. It should be okay to drink now."

Guan Shan reluctantly took the cup and looked into it. "Coffee?" He Tian nodded. Taking a sip, Guan Shan sat and stared at seemingly nothing. He Tian watched him closely, watched every muscle in his face as he expected a mood change. He was right - after a couple of minutes, Guan Shan was on the verge of crying again.

He Tian took the cup from his hands and placed it on the desk again. Bringing himself as close as possible, He Tian cupped Guan Shan's cheeks, being careful of the cut on his left cheek. Guan Shan closed his eyes as a few rogue tears spilled free and ran into He Tian's hands.

"I promise you, Mo Guan Shan, that everything will be okay. I will make everything okay." He Tian reached forward and pressed his lips to his Guan Shan's forehead.

Everything will be okay. I'll make sure of it.
