After a Minute (A Super Junior Fanfiction)

Chapter 21

          When Monday did finally come around, the couples met up with each other in their classes, except for Ryeowook and Yesung. Yesung sat down at his desk and noticed that Ryeowook wasn’t there. This was highly unusual because the brunette was so dedicated to his schoolwork that he rarely missed a class. After their math class had ended, Yesung approached Donghae and Eunhyuk and asked “Have you guys seen Ryeowook today?”

          “No, we thought he was in class with you,” Donghae replied.

          “Well I’m worried about him because he didn’t text me that he was going to miss class today, and it’s so unlike him to not show up,” Yesung stated.

          “Maybe you should go check on him after school,” Eunhyuk suggested.

          “Yeah, do you guys know where he lives? I’ve never been to his house before,” Yesung wondered.

          “Yeah I do, he lives over near my parents’ house. I’ll drive you over there after school if you want,” Eunhyuk offered.

          “Thanks, that’d be good,” Yesung agreed.

          After school had ended, Yesung tried to text Ryeowook, but the brunette didn’t respond. Now he was getting really worried; he hadn’t talked to him all day long, not even just to check in and say he was okay. Eunhyuk drove Yesung over there on his motorcycle. “You want me to wait out here?” Eunhyuk asked.

          “If you want, I shouldn’t be long; I just wanna see if he’s okay,” Yesung said.

          “Alright,” Eunhyuk replied as Yesung headed up to Ryeowook’s house.

          He knocked on the front door a few times, before hearing footsteps approach. Yesung saw the door open slowly as Ryeowook peeked out discreetly. “Hey,” Yesung said.

          “Hi,” Ryeowook whispered.

          “Why weren’t you at school today?” Yesung wondered. “I tried to text you all day to make sure you were okay.”

          “I wasn’t allowed to go,” Ryeowook quietly replied.

          “What, why not, and why won’t you look at me?” Yesung gently asked, noticing Ryeowook wouldn’t make eye contact with him.   

          “Just please leave, you shouldn’t have come here,” Ryeowook requested as he tried to shut the door.

          Yesung pushed the door open and walked inside. He dropped his jaw when saw that Ryeowook had a black eye. “What happened to you?” he inquired as he took Ryeowook’s face in his hands.

          Ryeowook started to cry as he whispered “Please, please just go, I don’t want him to see you.”

          “Who’s he?” Yesung asked.

          “Ryeowook!” a man’s voice yelled from another room of the house. Yesung saw his boyfriend jump in fear when he heard his name be called.

          “What’s going on?” Yesung whispered as he looked in Ryeowook’s eyes and saw how scared he was.

          “Just go, please just go,” Ryeowook pleaded as tears fell from his eyes and he pulled away from Yesung before rushing into the other room.

          Yesung didn’t move. He knew that something wrong and that he should stick around to make sure Ryeowook was okay. “When I say get in here, I mean get in here now, understood?!” Yesung heard someone scream.
