(OKOKOKOK THIS IS INSPIRED BY THE RIDING MV GO STREAM IT)

"seriously, haru, do we have to go this way?" i asked worriedly, looking into the dark alleyway, a small fire pit keeping it occupied. "yes, now come on. the bar is in here, somewhere." she replied impatiently, grabbing my arm and bringing me with her.

haru and i were completely different people. she was on the wrong side of the law, while i was on the bright side. a week ago, we got paired up for a project about getting to know each other. so she decided that tonight, i was going to a club with her.

i really don't even know why i had agreed to go, because i never even go outside later than 8:30pm if it isn't going to the convenience store four minutes away from my house.

back to haru, she also had a very bitchy personality. she only thought about herself. if she brought a group of people but the activity only accepted one person, she would disgard the others to enjoy herself. i'm not saying that she should give up her time for others to have a good time, but at least try to show that she'd care.

"here it is." haru said, pulling me from my thoughts. she knocked on the metal door twice before it opened, they whispered a few words, glancing at me once in a while. "sorry, y/n, they said you're not dressed for the occasion. well, i'll go in now. go find a way home. bye!" she said in a rush, not letting me say a word. as she shut the door, i looked around me.

the only sign of life in the alleyway was a group of six boys, some leaning on the wall while others sat on their motorcycles, making their appearance ten times more intimidating.

"are you lost, doll?" a deep voice said, approaching me. "d-don't come n-near me." i said, it came out more as a whisper from the fear i felt. "i won't hurt you, love." the voice spoke again, holding their hands in the air.

"what's a small girl like you doing on this side of the street? i've never seen you before." they asked, coming towards me slowly as the moonlight shone onto their face.

it was a boy with dark brown hair, the tips some of his strands were blonde. he wore a red jacket that fell off his broad shoulder.

i'd be lying if i said he wasn't hot.

"you like what you see, darling?" the boy smirked, stuffing his hands into the pockets of his jacket. i began to stutter words as he let out a deep chuckle. "what's your name sweetheart?" he asked. "y-y/n." i answered hesitantly, tapping my nails onto the screen of my phone.

"y/n, huh? pretty name for a pretty girl." the boy smiled. whoa. why- his eyes smile too. "i'm jeno. lee jeno." the boy, jeno, continued. "jeno! come here! you've been there for a while!" jeno's friends called out. jeno gave me a look that asked if i wanted to come, and i nodded.

gosh, what would my parents think if they know i'm with a group of scary teenage boys in an alleyway?

"boys. this is y/n. y/n, meet the boys. renjun, haechan, jaemin, chenle and jisung." jeno said, i could only wave, not finding the courage to speak up. "so shy. for what, sweetheart?" renjun asked with a smirk, leaning onto the wall behind him.

"i-i don't know." i mumbled, renjun laughing as a response. "i'll take you home, love." jeno cut in, cutting the tension between us. "you probably should. i bet mummy and daddy are worried sick for her." renjun taunted, using a childish voice. "cut it out, injun. come on, y/n." jeno demanded, guiding me to his bike.

"type in your address, love. i'm sorry about renjun, he's a bit... wild on certain nights." jeno instructed, bringing forward his phone for me to type my information. he looked at it before looking back at me. "i guess we're neighbours." he laughed with a surprised tone. i smiled genuinely for the first time that night.

"put this on, darling." jeno mumbled loud enough for me to hear as he secured the helmet on my head. "what about you?" i questioned, worried for his safety. "don't worry about it, sweetheart. i'll be fine." he assured with a smile before yelling to the boys that he was going home early.

"hold tight, babe, we'll be going pretty fast." jeno advised, causing me to wrap my arounds around his lean body. i could feel his muscles through his t-shirt, wow, isn't he fit.

then he took off, pulling into the road. for the first time in a while, i felt free to be as wild as i want to be. the wind blowing my hair started a pit of excitement in me, as we traveled through the night. i heard jeno laugh when i let out a sigh of

before i knew it, jeno began to slow down as we pulled into our street, which meant we were home.

"here's our stop, beautiful girl." jeno exclaimed, getting of the bike to help me stand up and remove the helmet. "i know it seems a bit early to ask, but can i have your number? you seem like a sweet girl and... i think i need some sweetness in my life." he winked. i let out a laugh before typing my number into his phone, him doing the same into my phone.

"i'll drop by tomorrow?" he asked, hope filling his eyes. "sure. thanks for tonight... jeno. goodnight." i smiled happily before walking to the porch. "goodnight beautiful!" he called before walking towards his door.

"who was that, y/n?" my mother asked, waiting at the door.

"that's our neighbour, lee jeno."
