I had spent two days in the bedroom, not moving accept for food and the bathroom.
I had decided to pull myself from my useless state and do something.
I had a shower and went to Lay to get some advice on something. It wasn't just my body that had suffered but my mind. I needed a cure for it.

"Lay, I n.. need some help."
I stuttered a lot nowadays, another effect I wanted rid of.
"What is it, Penny?" I sat in the comfiest chair in the room and he came and sat opposite me.

"There's s..something still... wrong with me. With my... mind. Maybe, I'm out of my mind." I said my confession and he leaned back in the chair.
"I was worried about this.
The effect on you of... his torment and torture will be one more of the mind than that of the body. The psychological side is more of what I'm concerned for. Would you mind a quick examination?"
He asked, and I was hesitant.

My body was still covered in the bruises, and they wouldn't leave me. I had refused Baekhyun request to look at my body, but with Lay it was different. He had reason for doing it. Whereas Baekhyun's motive was less plausible.
"Okay."
I sat on the table and he ran his soft porcelain hands along my body, he was checking for anything fractured or sprained.
I had told him my shoulder was really hurting. I had fallen one day and I had heard it crack.

"It's dislocated and I'll have to put it back in place. Do you want something to bite on?"
I laughed a little. This was like in the movies. I watch a lot of TV and movies because I get bored. I'm basically an encyclopaedia of all movies and TV shows. It's funny.

"Erm, no thanks. I'll be okay."
He placed my arm in the position that was needed and started talking through what he was doing; like a professional.

"Are you ready?"
I nodded and he counted down from 5, but as soon as he said 2 he pushed my shoulder back really hard. A surge of pain went through my arm and I shrieked, more out of shock.
He grabbed an ice pack and placed it on my shoulder to numb the pain for me.
But I still whimpered a little.

"It's all done. Over."
I heard footsteps coming down the stairs and the door flung open. There stood Jongin.
"What the Hell is going on?"
He said looking at us, he walked over to me and moved the ice pack of my shoulder to see nothing.
"What did you do to her?"
He directed to Lay who was looking through his pills cupboard.

"I put her shoulder back in place, it had been dislocated for a few days. So it hurt." He said turning around and throwing me a little rub of pills.

"They'll help with the pain."
My legs felt a little weak and I felt lightheaded because of what had just occurred.
As I attempted to stand from the table I immediately fell to the floor. My arms felt heavy and legs felt like feathers, I couldn't walk nor lift myself up.

Jongin took it upon himself to pick me up and carry me to my room. We got some stares from the other as he walked into mine and Baekhyun's room.
"Are you alright?"
He said before placing me down on the bed. 'So now he cares?' I thought.

Jongin had been ignoring ever since I got back. If I asked to talk to him the others would say he was busy and couldn't come right now. Bullsh*t!
I knew he wasn't because I would see him and he was doing absolutely nothing.

"So now you care, huh?"
I muttered and he looked down, knowing exactly what I meant by it.
"I'm sorry, but I've been busy."

"No he hasn't." As voice said from the door. Baekhyun.
"He hasn't been talking to you because I told him not to come near you nor talk to you.
At least for awhile. His feelings need to disappear before I beat them out of him." He said.

I was shocked.

That's why everyone was telling me he was busy. Because he hadn't been allowed near me.
"That won't help anything. Listen, Baek. He knows I feel nothing for him, he knows that trying with me would be useless. Just like this little plan.
I like him... as a friend.
He's nice and protective of me.
So please, don't make him distance himself from me."
Baekhyun folded his arm.
"He will learn that his liking for me is unwanted. His feelings will go away when he realises we will always remain as friends. And friends only."

Baekhyun rubbed his chin and began to think. Jongin was fumbling with his hands.
As was I.

"So be it. But! If you try anything that is unsuited to the relationships of friends.
We'll have a problem.
Understand?" Jongin nodded with his head down, before raising it and talking for the first time in a while.
"It won't happen again. I swear. I'm loyal to you, Baekhyun."
Baekhyun wave his hand for Jongin to remove himself.
Which he gladly did.

"My love, I'm going ask once. Nicely anyway. Remove your clothes. I'm not afraid of you being hurt, I just want to see how much he marked you.
Please." Baekhyun asked.
'Wow, he really did ask nicely.'
One thing about Baekhyun is that 'please' is a rarity to come from his mouth.

I stood up on my weak legs and began to take my clothes off.
"My God." The remains of the bruises were still there. This made him shocked.
He clenched his wrist hard.
I picked up a blanket and wrapped it around my body before running to my husband and embracing him tightly.

"Happy now?"
I said through my tears.

"No, because... I'm about to kill the man I have in my basement. He deserves it."

"He's... here?"
