as if the gods and deities had entirely given up on the small doctor, a pair of frigid hands covered his mouth, preventing him from making any type of noise as he came face to face with a familiar face.
jihoon's pupils dilated as his heart skipped a beat, becoming erratic.
damn. at the moment, that's all jihoon could think of and he didn't mind that at all.
for some reason, that particular face gave him a sense of relief, and jihoon knew that he'd never tell soonyoung about it.
the latter's eyes were still as dark as the night sky and as fierce as the gaze of a tiger eyeing his prey, just as how jihoon remembered them to be.
those pair of eyes really looks as if it could stare right through a person's soul and bare existence.
jihoon was too stunned to move for a moment until the newcomer's pinkish red lips were adorned with a familiar smirk.
it was a sight that the doctor haven't seen for ages and he could not help but admit that he kind of misses it.
"i've finally found you, lee jihoon" the older remarked in his rare baritone voice.
his voice, like the sound of the ocean waves that perfectly suits the gentle breeze, goes well with the silent atmosphere.
despite the fact that he was sweating profusely and looked as if he had been sprinting for the last few hours, his beautiful golden hair was gently falling down his forehead.
jihoon was unable to blink even once as he stare at the sight in front of him.
soonyoung, to be precise.
yes. the one whose beside him right now is none other than kwon soonyoung in all his flesh and glory.
he's someone the doctor had not expected to see since he hadn't seen that person in a long time.
but he's also the very person that jihoon wanted to see.
but how come it was soonyoung, not jiwon and his men, who managed to get sneak in jihoon's office?
where did he come from, exactly?
and how in the hell did he avoid being picked up by jiwon's radar?
as soonyoung removed his hand and assisted the doctor to stand, questions filled jihoon's mind.
strangely, the doctor couldn't take his gaze away from the older guy during the time that it literally bothers soonyoung, of course not in a bad way.
"doctor, why are you staring at me so intently?" the blonde asked, smirking as he ran his fingers through his blonde hair.
"well, like the view?" he joked, trying to lift the mood.
"what-!" exclaimed a panicked jihoon, causing the latter to snort.
"calm down, i'm just kidding."
despite the outside noises, jihoon could clearly tell what he was saying, it was as if soonyoung's presence is enough to silence everything and calm him down.
"why are you here? i mean, how come? i thought you—"
unfortunately, soonyoung interrupted the doctor.
"let's save all the chatting for later, doctor," soonyoung suggested.
"i don't get it all—" and jihoon was cut off once more.
"but first, let me get you out of this place-" cutted the older yet stopping midway."before i forgot, i'd like to give you just a few reminder." he added.
"what?"
"i am not tolerating any complains right now, and i'm not entertaining any kind of questions for the time being," he replied.
fortunately, the doctor seems to get his point so the younger did not argue at all.
wasting no time, the blonde led the way as jihoon clutched soonyoung's sleeve.
the blonde slid open the window that connects the younger man's room to the next.
"climb up the window doctor," soonyoung said.
"what?" jihoon asked, startled at the request of the older.
"i'm sorry but we can't waste any time trying to look for safe option to move rooms." apologized the latter.
wasting no time, jihoon did what he's told to and sneaked into the thirteenth room, where the door had already been shattered carefully.
"get down for a bit," soonyoung whispered as the they quietly sneaked all the way from the 14th to the 13th room, which ends with the older closing the window to conceal any sign that they had just escaped from the said room.
just a minute after they had escaped, the door to the 14th chamber swings open forcefully, as if on cue.
"doctor lee! i know you're here! after all, it's your office," jiwon said, more enraged than ever before.
"show yourself or i'll burn this this place."
"let's go moving," soonyoung whispered to the younger guy as they silently sneaked from room to the other.
"you ain't going to show up?! huh?!?" shouted the voice followed by a loud crashing sound.
soonyoung grabs jihoon's hands, squeezing them a little and holding them tighter while leading the way.
the doctor flinches at first but soon relaxes as the warmth of the latter envelopes him.
the two continue discreetly evacuating from room to room until they reach the third room just a little further from the emergency exit.
they're now several rooms away from that insane jiwon, which has relieved the doctor for now.
by the time they've reached the second room, the lights on the entire floor had gone out, making it difficult for the doctor to see where he was going.
and jihoon could swore that he heard soonyoung mumbled a curse beside him.
"doctor, you really like playing hide and seek, eh? then let's play that game together! you may hide for as long as you like, and i'll be the one looking for you," and soon, a wicked laugh followed.
soonyoung murmured, "seriously, that mother fucker."
"however, once i find you, i'll take your skin off your body. i'll save your silky hair off your head and pull those bright and innocent eyes out of their sockets. and lastly, i'll cut your pink little tongue and sew your lips shut."
jihoon unconsciously clenched his hold on the older, terrified by what he's hearing and the older realized that in no time, so he squeezed his hand back as a sign of assurance.
"it'll be alright; he won't be able to harm you as long as i'm here," the blonde reassured him and the doctor couldn't help but nod his head.
"we're near the emergency exit, so please bear with me for a while." soonyoung added.
"soonyoung," the younger man said softly as the older man turned to face him.
"hm?"
jihoon murmured, his voice quivering, "i can't walk anymore."
doubting if he's heard it right, soonyoung asked once again, "what did you say?"
"i can't walk because my legs are trembling so much," the younger said, his legs trembling as though a gust of wind was enough to knock him down.
"if it's okay with you, let's hide here for a bit,hm?" soonyoung suggested gently as he led jihoon to the room's farthest corner and darkest recess.
