The Boy from Daegu | DoCheol

Space

-Seungcheol-

It has been a week after I fully recovered, we're back in Seoul and graduation is a month away, what do vampires do after graduating? I graduated for about almost a hundred times now, I live in a cycle, a never-ending cycle, sometimes it gets boring, it's like I can predict what will happen next, a saga perhaps. It's career day and tons of colleges flooded our school, entertaining students to enrol to their university.

"Nope, we're going to study in U.S, in L.A, where my family lives" Jisoo lied to another staff who walked up to us to promote their university.

"Oh, okay thank you" she bowed, fixing her glasses.

"I don't get it, we're obviously not interested, why do they have to walk to us" I groaned, shaking my head.

"Hey, at least we're normal kids to them" he elbowed me.

We were walking to meet up with Jeonghan, I'm stuck with the couple again, as usual. "Baby~" Jisoo cooed, Jeonghan turned around, his long hair flipping as well, he waved at us and ran to hug Jisoo. Then the PDA started, we're in the cafeteria and the other students are giving me the merciful look. "Hi Seungcheol, hello Jeonghan" I rolled my eyes, poking the kimbap I ordered. "You need to like find someone soon, or you'll grow old sing-oops" Jeonghan covered his mouth, I rolled my eyes for the nth time.

"Baby, don't tease him" Jisoo held his hand and they fed each other...really...

"Hey" Doyoon walked to our table with a tray of food.

"What are you doing here?" I asked him, sounding a bit grumpy.

"Choi Seungcheol, Jang Doyoon is a good example of 'someone'" Jeonghan wiggled his eyebrows,

"Okay, I don't get it" Doyoon sat down next to me, staring at the couple.

"I'm going, bye" I pulled my bag and walked out of the cafeteria.

I strolled around the campus, it was a free day since the exams are near, seniors tend to study harder on finals. Some students are busy collecting flyers from universities. I went to a more secluded area to take a nap, at least, I sat under an old tree at the back of the school. I closed my eyes and was about to sleep when I heard a small gasp, it was a low one but my senses are extra sharp to hear it clearly. I opened my eyes, I wasn't supposed to interfere with whatever it is but my senses told me I need to. I walked to the side, there was a basement entrance, the gasp was louder.

"Anyone here?" I knocked on the entrance.

The gasping stopped.

It doesn't feel right, I kicked the door open to reveal two big guys and Lee Jihoon sitting on the floor. "What the fuck-" the big guy turned around, they tied Jihoon's wrists, he looked at me with pleading eyes. I shook my head and punched both guys, knocking them out. "Were they bullying you?" I untied the necktie around his wrists and he nodded, I helped him stand "Thank you" he bowed, his voice shaking, I ruffled his hair and walked back to the next class I have.

"Cheol, where were you?" Doyoon asked me, he was two seats away from me.

"Not your business"

"Hey, why are you being mean-"

I was saved by the bell. The teacher arrived. You might think I'm having mood swings or something, but the truth is that I don't want to be near him, the more he's near, the more my mind goes crazy and might soon just bite his throat and drink all his blood. He makes me crazy, just like how Wonwoo's blood affects Mingyu. But it annoys me because I don't like Doyoon, I feel like there's a force telling me to stay away as much as possible.

"Mr. Choi, your reaction paper please" the teacher called me, snapping me out of my sea of thoughts.

I passed my paper and continued drifting away. Soon it was time for dismissal and I was still thinking about the universe telling me to stay away from Doyoon. "Let's visit Hollywood, the last time we went there was 1993" Jisoo elbowed me while chuckling, I just nodded and stared at the cup of green tea in front of me. "You're so quiet today, what's up hyung?" Mingyu asked me, flipping the magazine page he was reading.

"Have you ever just hated someone so much?"

"Yes, I hate Noh" Mingyu nodded.

"Aish"

Ignoring Doyoon was not that hard, it took me two weeks of ignoring him before he confronted me. The feisty Jang Doyoon as Jeonghan explained. "Why are you ignoring me? Did I do something wrong?" he pulled my arm, It was dismissal and only a few student were left, it was the day I was lazy to stand up so the kids went on without me. And Doyoon stayed behind to confront me, feisty.

"Nothing"

"Choi Seungcheol, is it about me going to Busan? Your friends-"

"It's not about you, I just want you out of my life, that's all, just get away"

"Seung-"

"I swear to God, I'm gonna kill you if you chase after me" I threatened him, showing my fangs before walking away.

And since then, the space that I wanted to happen, turned into a gap.
