Mission failed (Choi Seung-hyun fanfic)

~ Falling apart ~

Not a minute later a black car that I was supposed to be in was chasing after us. We were heading towards the highway, but there was no way we’d outrun a car there. “Turn here!” I shouted to Seung-hyun when I saw a familiar side road leading back to the city, he took a sharp turn, I thought for a second I was going to fall off the bike before he straighten it again and I was still safely sitting behind him with my hands around his waist. The car was still behind us but once we reach the city we can easily lose it to the traffic. Unfortunately we had another ten minutes to get to the city and the car was reaching us. Suddenly I heard a gunshot. What the hell, are they trying to kill us both? But as I turned back I saw another two bikes behind the car, and it was them who were shooting at us and at the black car. Dammit! Not more hit men! I rolled my eyes and turned back to Seung-hyun telling him there were other two bikes with hit men on them. I couldn’t see his face but from the way he stiffened I could imagine him frown, as if we weren’t in enough trouble. “Annabelle, I need you to take control of the bike!” he shouted back at me. “What?” I asked panicking. Is he out of his mind? I’ve never drove anything in my life! “It’s ok, just keep it going straight for now.” he yelled back. He pulled my hands away from his waist and placed them on the steering wheel. I gripped it hard and didn’t let go. He slowly let go of my shaking hand but as the bike started to slalom he quickly put them back on mine and stabilized it. “You can do it, little girl!” He shouted. “Just keep it straight!” he let go once again of my hands and I managed to keep the bike going straight. I was getting a hang of it. It wasn’t as hard as I thought, or at least I thought so until he stood up, blocking my vision. “What are you doing? I can’t see!” I panicked again. “It’s ok, just keep going straight, I need to turn.” He put his feet on the seat and quickly turned himself around so that he was facing me now. He put his legs over mine so that now he was practically sitting in my lap, I can't say it was very comfortable, but it was definitely embarrassing. Then he jumped pushing himself closer to me. For a moment I lost control of the bike but I gripped the wheel tighter and soon it was driving straight again. He took off his helmet looking at me. “You’re doing great little girl, keep going.” He said and smiled at me. He put his helmet on my head and pinned it. It had his smell on it so I smiled. "Thoughtful." I said charmingly and winked at him. He laughed. Then he pulled out of the back of his pants a gun. My eyes widened. “What are you going to do with that?” I asked scared. “Don’t worry.” he said placing a kiss on the helmet where my lips were. He put one of his hand around my waist and held me tight. His other hand was stretched over my shoulder with the gun in it. “This is going to be loud. Prepare!” he warned me. I nodded and focused on the road, now that I could finally see it. I knew the way to the town so that wasn’t the problem. I just hoped I could take us there in one piece. A loud sound pierced my ear and I flinched a bit but I managed to keep the bike going straight. I heard a glass breaking and tires screeching. Then a loud bum. I looked up at his face, he seemed satisfied. “Two flies with one shot.” He bragged. I didn't want to laugh but I couldn't help myself, it was completely insane how my life changed in just a few weeks, but I couldn’t ask for a better gift than the one sitting in front of me, or on me, with his hand around my waist. “You’re out of your mind!” I told him. He shrugged. “They’re still alive.” He defended himself. I took a left turn towards the city. He looked back at the road for a moment. “You’re doing great Annabelle. Just get us into the city.” He said giving me a supportive look. I looked at him and nodded and then focused on the road again. He fired another shot but by the look on his face I assumed he missed. More shots were fired from both Seung-hyun and the hit man. “Dammit!” he cursed out loud. He was becoming frustrated, he knew he was all most out of bullets and he couldn’t hit the moving target. We were approaching the city, I thought how now that the car was out of sight this wasn’t such a good idea, if we lead this man to the city he might shoot someone. I took a sharp turn to another small ally, amazed that I was able to drive this thing so easily after merely five minutes. “Where are you going?” Seung-hyun asked concerned. Honestly I had no idea where I was driving anymore, I just hoped it would take us away from the city. “We can’t go to the city with him behind us! Get rid of him!” I yelled back. I looked up at his eyes and he seemed shocked, in an amusing way. “I don’t mean kill him!” I said and rolled my eyes at him. He nodded smiling and looked up behind me. His face istantly changed to irritated. And I swear I could see fear in it too. “Crap, he’s reaching us.” He said nervously. “Anabelle.” He called out to me, as I looked at his eyes again he grabbed my shoulders in a protective way. I got scared. “Hold on!” he said as the hit man approached us from the left with his gun pointed at me. I widened my eyes as I felt Seung-hyun pulling us to the right of the bike. Everything after that happened too fast for me to understand. We fell to the ground and I rolled hurting my head in the process. I pulled myself in a sitting position and grabbed my pounding head trying to endure the sharp pain. I slowly opened my eyes and looked towards Seung-hyun. He was lying unconscious just a few steps away from me. I tried to crawl towards him when I heard a bike stop, the man, covered with a black helmet approached us with the gun in his hands. My heart started pounding like crazy. I looked at him with wide eyes, he’s going to kill us both, I thought. He stopped at Seung-hyun’s feet, pointing the gun at his head. My heart stopped, I wanted to scream but my throat was dry, it was like a distant scene I was watching and I couldn’t do anything about it. I saw Seung-hyun’s gun barely out of the reach of my hands. But I knew I could never reach it in time. As I noticed the man pulling the trigger I let out the loudest, piercing scream in my life. He pulled the trigger but the gun did not fire, he was out of bullets. My heart pounded in my chest like it wanted to break out, I noticed he put back his gun and was about to pull out another one. I knew if I don’t react fast this time Seung-hyun would surely die. I reached the gun that was in front of me and pointed it at the hit man. He didn’t even notice me as he concentrated on Seung-hyun who was now regaining consciousness, he pulled his other gun out and I didn’t wait another second. I closed my eyes shut and pulled the trigger. The gunshot pierced my ear like none before, I was pushed to the ground by the force of the shot, and the gun fell out of my hand. I stayed on the floor for merely one second before looking towards the man, for a mere moment he turned to face me before collapsing to the ground. I lost all breath. I pulled myself back into the sitting position, my whole body trembling as I watched the blood spreading from the man’s body. Terror, guilt, fear, shame…all those emotions overwhelmed me and I couldn’t look away from the body I so easily took life from. My vision became blurry as tears started flowing down my cheeks. I put my hand over my mouth refraining a scream of terror. What have I done? I got sick to my stomach, I pressed my hand against it, wanting to vomit so badly but I couldn’t. Terror, guilt, fear, shame…a roller-coaster of terrifying emotions filled my body and mind. I couldn’t see nor think straight. In the corner of my eye I noticed Seung-hyun pulling himself up and running towards me, he fell beside me on his knees, wrapping his arms around me in a protective way. In any other situation that would make me feel safe and warm, but not now. I was disgusted with myself and I wanted him to be too. “What… have I done?” I barely managed to pronounce those words. He shushed me, pulling me deeper into his embrace and consoling me by stroking my hair. “You did what you had to do, Annabelle. He would’ve killed us both.” He said trying so hard to comfort me but it didn’t work. I’d rather be dead than feel the way I felt at that moment. I sobbed and sniffed into Seung-hyun’s shirt until he pulled me up in his hands and walked away from the scene. I gave one last glimpse at the corpse, still lying in his own pool of blood. That was a mistake, I started hitting Seung-hyun telling him to put me down. As he did so I ran towards a bush and threw up. He came behind me and pulled my hair so it didn’t get dirty. He offered me a napkin and I cleaned myself up. “Thank you.” I said pulling myself back up. “Hey, everything’s going to be fine. I promise.” He said slowly then he cupped my face and kissed my forehead. I tried to fake a smile, he didn’t seemed convinced but it was the best I could do. I wanted to believe in his words but I couldn’t. The mere thought of what I had done made me sick to my stomach again. I knew at that moment that never again will I be entirely fine in my life, because as of now I carry the burden of murder with me, wherever I go. He took my hand in his and we walked to Seung-hyun's bike. It was in no condition of driving anymore so he took some stuff from under the seat. “Wait here.” He said giving me the bag he just pulled out. I nodded and waited as he went back there. I couldn’t even look in that direction anymore. After a minute he returned on another bike, I looked at it and widened my eyes. “We’re taking his bike?” I asked in terror. Seung-hyun stretched his hand to me. “Annabelle, he doesn’t need it anymore. Please get on, we need to get out of here before someone comes.” I took a deep breath and took Seung-hyun’s hand. He helped me get on the bike and we drove away. As we approached the exit of the city I knew I was leaving for good, that I would never see my family and friends again. I was broken, I buried my face in Seung-hyun’s back and squeezed his waist. Even though I would miss all of them I didn’t want them to see me ever again, for I was not the same person as before. I was much worse, and I knew they would never forgive that. It was better for everyone that I was leaving, that way they can remember the girl I was yesterday, and the day before. Not the one I had become today.
