《我明白》-[w.jh]

[26: power]

The bond was complete. The mark of the lovers' bond was still fresh on Jun's wrist—a small, very tiny little heart-shaped scar, so small that you had to look extremely close to be able to see it.

He stared at Seoyul's wrist as he held her hands. Her wrist, too, had the same mark.

"How do you feel?" Seoyul asked him, concerned. "Feel any different?"

Jun smiled and stretched a little. "I'm fine..." he trailed off when he felt some tingling in his palms.

"Something wrong?" She asked, worry clouding her eyes. Minghao also wore a look of concern.

"Maybe your powers are being transferred to him or something?" Minghao raised an eyebrow. "I've never seen people fresh out of bonding before..."

Jun panicked when he felt something burning within his chest. "Erm, Seoyul, I..." he suddenly vanished and appeared at the other corner of the room.

Minghao's jaw dropped. "Yullie, that's not normal."

"What's not normal?" Seoyul asked as Jun disappeared and reappeared in yet another corner of the room.

"That's not one of your powers. He's teleporting, Yullie. That's...strange. It's not normal, unless he learned it by himself in that short span of two minutes." Minghao pointed at Jun's movements. "You see, whenever I teleport, I do that too. He's not randomly turning himself invisible and appearing in other areas like you do."

Seoyul stared at Minghao wide-eyed. "Are you sure?"

"If you can do that," he gestured towards Jun, who was now screaming something about turning stuff off, "I suppose it means he learned it then. You were always terrible at teleportation."

"Jun, come back here!" Seoyul called.

"How do you stop this? I keep disappearing..I'm getting dizzy!"

Minghao sighed. "Visualise yourself in one place and keep your mind fixed there."

It seemed as if Minghao's advice had worked, because finally after several moments, Jun was lying face down on the pillows, panting heavily.

"How..." he said between pants, "do you even manage to do all of this?"

Seoyul turned to Minghao. "Should I try?"

Minghao just shrugged.

She closed her eyes, trying to visualise a place where she wanted to go to.

Jun...

Jun...

Jun...

She couldn't stop her mind from thinking about him.

Was he okay? What had happened to him? Did the bond fail? Would he be fine?

"Ouch."

Seoyul opened her eyes to find herself sitting on Jun's back. She shrieked, tumbling off the mattress and onto the carpet.

Minghao sighed, crossing his arms. "This is unusual, but yes, I'm assuming your dear boyfriend somehow managed to learn how to teleport, because you know how to as well."

Jun got up from his position on the bed. "I can teleport?"

Minghao nodded. "That's just one thing. If you really want a chance of taking down Seori, you've got to master every single one of Seoyul's skills. As well as your own if you learn any more of them."

Jun pursed his lips. If he wanted to keep his darling safe, he had to work for it.
