Caged Butterfly

Chapter 12

Recap

"You can't escape me baek. I won't let you. You are mine. You are bound to me. As long as i live, i won't let you leave me. You are my butterfly.
You belong in my garden"

"I am going to make you mine. Let's make love baby"

"No no kris please stop. I don't want to"

Not minding my protests he began to tear my clothes.

"Let me have you baby"

No one's pov

Baekhyun closed his eyes, not wanting to see his best friend destroying his dignity. He was afraid. He felt weak.

He expected brutal assault on his body but get shocked when he heard a rough sobbing sound. He opened his eyes to look at kris, to see him crying.

"Why baek? Why? Why can't you understand! I don't want to hurt you..
You are my precious, i don't want to hurt you?"

Baekhyun wanted to say, you already hurt me but closed his mouth.. seeing Kris's unstable state, it's best to remain silent.

"The only thing I want in this world is you, but i can't have you!!. Why should i live? Without you, i have no reason to live" Kris's cried

Baekhyun's heart clenched. He never saw Kris this weak. Kris is a strong person, mentally and physically. He felt pity and some other emotions he can't describe.

Suddenly Kris cupped his cheeks
" Do you hate me now baek? Do you hate this monster? I hurt so much..
I hurt my butterfly"

For the first time Baekhyun want to say ' i don't hate you ' to him.

"I hurt you, i should suffer"
Kris looked like a maniac.. his eyes are blown wide and looked frantic. Baekhyun become scared, he want to approach him, but got scared when he yelled loudly at him.

"N..no kris please calm down"

"No no no i should suffer!!"

Baekhyun screamed loudly when he saw Kris punching the wall. His fist started to bleed but Kris didn't stop. He began to punch the wall with unrelenting force.

" I "

Punch

"SHOULD"

Punch

"SUFFER"

Baekhyun was too shocked to move. What should he do? What if he started to hurt him..

"Kris please stop.."

Kris began to throw the chairs and tables against the wall. In few minutes the classroom looked like it was wrecked by a tornado.

Baekhyun eyes widened when he saw Kris took a sharp wooden flint from a broken table.

"Now tell me my butterfly, why should i live?" The sharp flint began to move towards his neck.

"Kris don't.." Baekhyun was scared. He don't know what to do. But he don't want Kris to get hurt. It's hurting to see his best friend in this situation.

"You hate me.. my butterfly didn't love me.. it would be better if i died"
Kris tried to stab himself, but a small hand grabbed his bloodied hand.

Kris looked at Baekhyun who is crying silently " i don't hate you, i never did"

Baekhyun saw Kris's eyes began to tear " do you love me baek?" He looked hopefully at him. Baekhyun didn't want to hurt him more so he nodded his head gently.

"Tell me baek"

Baekhyun swallowed heavily. He knows what he is going to say is a lie and he is going to regret it later, but to save Kris he don't have any other option.

"I l..love you k..Kris"

Kris hugged him tightly. He buried his face in baekhyun's neck, kissing it repeatedly.

"I love you baek. i love you so much..
You don't know how much i crave for your mere presence"

Reluctantly Baekhyun enveloped his small arms around Kris's giant body.
Kris smiled at him.

"Kiss me baek" he looked at Baekhyun with shining eyes. Baekhyun looked at him with hesitation.

The smile on Kris's face vanished. He looked murderous. His hand began to move towards the flint. Before Kris could react Baekhyun kissed him.

Kris threw the wooden piece across the room before enveloping him in his arms. Soon the kiss began to get more passionate.

Baekhyun broke the kiss while panting heavily. Kris looked at him with hooded eyes.

Baekhyun took Kris's bloodied wrist and whispered " why Kris? Why did you hurt himself"

" I am punishing myself for hurting you, i slapped you. I have to hurt this very hand that slapped my butterfly"

Baekhyun teared, he hugged him tentatively.
"Please don't do this anymore. Don't hurt yourself for me"

"I will do it again and again" Baekhyun looked at him, shocked.

"Kris?"

"If you tried to be with someone, i won't hurt you, but i will hurt myself"

"Kris what are saying"

Kris chuckled evily at him
"I can't punish my precious, but i will punish myself. If you touch someone, i will burn my hand. If smiled at anyone other than me, i will cut myself. If you went away from me, i will kill myself"

Baekhyun was shocked to his core. He can't believe Kris will go to this extent to have him.

" Will you leave me baek? Should i burn myself to prove my love"

"Please Kris don't. I won't go away from you, i won't talk to anyone.."
Baekhyun started to cry heavily.
Kris bought him into his arms while caressing his head.

" There there , everything is alright.
You are mine now, my butterfly"

The butterfly is caged, not by chains or shackles. It is caged by its own emotions. And the monster knows how to use the butterfly's own emotions against it. Now he forever belongs to the monster.

Now he is his own cage
