Psycho - 백현

Chapter 11

He slapped me and beated me almost to death, until someone came to help me.
He grabbed my attacker and pulled him away from me.
I fell on the ground and grabbed the air with my lungs.
I. Must. Breath.

I can't die, not here, not now.
My vision became blurry as if I was going to faint, but I forced myself to look at the two people who were now fighting against each other.
I tried to stand up and run, but I couldn't make it. I collapsed before I even knew it.
Everything went black.

I slowly opened my eyes, seeing I was not in the street anymore, but in a house full of warmth.
As soon as I tried to get up I felt pain everywhere in my body.
"Au." I mumbled in pain, but looked around.

This room was a living room and I was in the couch. It looks cozy and gives you a pleasant feeling.
A door opened and Baekhyun appeared.
He looked terrible. There was a wound on his beautiful face and he looked tired.
"Ah... You're up." He said.
I nodded and sat up in the seat and Baekhyun approached me and fell down beside me on the couch.
Is this Baekhyun's house? I guess it is.

He sighed. "I'm sorry I wasn't there earlier."
I looked at him. Why is he feeling guilty? Everything is alright now.
"Don't feel guilty, everything is alright now."
I said, feeling pain in my lip.
I went with my hand to my lip and discovered that it was still bleeding a little.

Baekhyun saw it, stood up and grabbed my hand. He leaded me to the kitchen and grabbed the first aid kit.
The kitchen looked normal.
Not too big, not too smal.
A cooking island in the center, just like most of the kitchen's.

Baekhyun tapped with his hand on the cooking island. "Go sit here."
He gived me a sweet smile.
I did what he asked me to do and I looked at him.
Is he going to treat my wound? Like in the movies?

That's exactly what he's planning to do.
He grabbed a cotton ball, disinfected it and grabbed my arm.
I didn't even knew there was a wound there, but Baekhyun saw it.
How did I not notice that wound?

"I'm gonna cover the area with a bandage, okay?" Baekhyun asked while looking at me with lovely eyes.
"You don't have to. It's not that big." I said, looking back. Our eyes met and my heart skipped a beat.
"No, it's for the best. You have to keep wounds warm. It will heal much better."

He grabbed the bandage and putted it around the wound of my arm.
His fingers touched my arm for a moment and my cheeks started to blush again.
My heart skipped a beat and my breath was taken.
I can't help myself, but smile.

"Why are smiling like an idiot?" He asked, still treating the wound on my arm, glancing at me with those cute eyes.
My eyes widen and my smile disappeared.
Damn... He really sees everything.

"I-It's nothing." My voice stuttered and I looked away. I tried to stop myself from blushing by looking at random things in the kitchen, but it didn't last long when my eyes met those of Baekhyun by coincidence.
Does he have some kind of supereyes?

He grabbed another cotton ball and stared into my eyes. "I'm gonna treat the wound on your lip now. Don't freak out if it feels weird."
He said, went with his gaze to my lips and licked his.

"Why would I freak out? It's just you who treat my lip." I said, preparing for what's going to happen.
I felt the softness of the cotton ball on my lip.
It was dry because there wasn't disinfectant on it, but it felt like a little marshmallow that didn't stick to my lip.

"Au. Oppa that hurts." I said while feeling a little pain. I know I'm overreacting, but I can't help myself. I like teasing other people.
"Do I need to give a kiss on it?" Baekhyun smirked.
My eyes widened and my cheeks blushed.
My heart skipped a beat as if it was normal.

"N-No..." I said, while looking down nervously.
My voice said what my mind thinks, but my heart screams another word.
I could feel the warmth of his hand on my lips, because it was so close.
I started playing with my fingers.

On the other hand, Baekhyun was feeling a little hurt because you said no.
He know he cannot let it happen to create feelings for you, but it's already to late.
He already has them for you.
