[RUNNING UPSTAIRS.....]
[TURNING LEFT......]
[ENTERING SECOND BEDROOM.....]
[HIDING IN CLOSET.....]

    Donghyuck nearly slammed his back against the wall, standing stark in the dark closet. With shaking hands he massaged his throbbing shoulder that was warm to the touch and he tried to compose some part of himself. His breathing was ragged as he had no time to take a break since he decided to escape. But now wasn't the time to be trying to rest. Not when someone was going after him. The honey haired boy lightly slapped himself for slamming against that door and grabbing the programmers attention so simply. He should have at least done what he did in the room and observe his surroundings for a little while. Yet it was already too late to go back on any decisions now. The sound of humming appeared near again as Jaemin seemed to be leisurely coming to find him.

~Hyuckie, come on don't be playing hide and seek with me now.
~I have important work to do,
    His voice was light but threatening and his footsteps were getting closer to the room. Every action that was heard gave the impression that a mother was just trying to find their child who was playing pretend. If the situation wasn't so dire and if Donghyuck was so terrified he'd probably scoff.

~Baby, baby. Where are you?

    But the smaller boy saw the flicker of his dark figure through the shutters of the closet and instantly went quiet- not even his heartbeat was audible. His breath hitched, noticing how easily he could be spotted. He instinctively tried to sink down to avoid eye level. Right on time- two glowing red eyes trailed over his head. They hovered over that one spot as if waiting for the other to come out and give himself in just like that.

~You know you can't run away from me.
~You're mine, I watch everything you do.

    The honey haired boy was paralyzed, however, and therefore couldn't even bat an eye. He only stayed still, with wide eyes staring up. Jaemin frowned in a teasing manner before opening up the large holographic screen. There, Donghyuck's honey coloured indicator flashed brightly in the room they were in. A separate tab was opened and some letters and numbers were being typed in. And after a couple more seconds of crouching motionless, the pink haired boy closed the screens and turned his sights away from where the older boy was to search around the room.

~Now come out Honey Bear.
~Come out and we can talk this out like civilized men.
~I don't want to hurt you. But I will if it will get you to listen.
    A dark chuckle left his lips and his back was facing the closet. Looking through the shutters, the terrified teen saw Jaemin was on the other side- checking the ridiculously large baskets. Hoping that he was distracted enough, Donghyuck dared to crack open the closet door. Trying not to make a sound and thankfully, there was no sound. Instead, a large slit of light came through from the window across the room. Watching the programmers movements carefully, he shuffled out.

[WALKING.....]
[STOPPING.....]
[WALKING.....]

    There was sudden movement as the hunched figure of Jaemin straightened up and turned around. However Donghyuck had already dropped to the ground without a sound. It was a good thing he did too because his heart might have been quicker to fall if he hesitated for a moments time. His body was tense as he tried to listen in on where his hunter was. Thats when he heard the bed he was using as a shield start to creak. Despite being scared to the point of freezing up, he forced himself to move.

[CRAWLING.....]

    He pulled his leg away from his previous position just in time. The messy mop of pink hair was hanging over the ledge of the bed frame. Donghyuck settled a bit more at the foot of the mattress. His form curled in to try and be as unnoticeable as possible. From the edge of the bed his head bobbed upwards. He saw the long, lithe figure stretch across to take a peek. The door was right beside Jaemin. He was entering the closet to do a more thorough search. The older boy held his breath and took another gamble.
