Chapter 24: Emotions

_JACKIE_

I turned around only to realize that now I was surrounded by seven guards, all pointing their guns at me. Chill ran down my spine and I gulped in fear. I raised my hands in surrender.

Suddenly a loud gunshot resonated through the eerily silent building, followed by five more. I closed me eyes shut and waited for death to greet me. I waited and waited but nothing happened! I opened my eyes and started searching for the bullets that should have penetrated my skin but surprisingly I was clean.

I looked in front of me with wide eyes as the unexpected climax hit my vision. Six of the guards were lying lifeless on the cold floor, their blood was all over the place. Each and every one of them were shot in fatal positions. Only one of them stood straight as he looked at me. His face was enveloped by a thick red scarf. I looked at him dumbstruck as the smoking nuzzle of his gun was now directly pointed at my forehead.

Was he going to shoot me? Then why did he eliminate his fellow co-workers?

I took scared steps behind as he approached me with slow yet angry strides. Soon my back hit the wall and my feet froze in their spot. The guard came forward as he slammed both of his hands beside my head thereby caging me. His dark brown eyes were staring at my blue ones with extreme depth. Those orbs were all too familiar for me.

With one swift move I pulled down his concealing scarf and placed a hard slap right across his cheek bone. Due to the inertia, his head took a sharp turn towards his right. I felt heavy tears threatening to fall from my eyes but I struggled enough to resist them.

"How could you?" I asked with a infuriating voice.

"How dare you leave the camp like that? How dare you leave your friends like that?" I almost yelled at him as he glared at me with angry orbs.

"Why do you even care Jackie? And what friends? I don't have anybody" Yoongi snapped at me. His voice was initially loud but it cracked at the end, clearly indicating that he had broken down. Soon his eyes became glossy with brimming tears but he refused to drop even a single one of them.

"I thought I was your friend" I couldn't help but feel sad. I left Taehyung because I was having mixed feelings for Yoongi but he didn't even consider me his friend.

"That's the problem Jackie. I am just a friend to you" Yoongi sighed as he lowered his head to stare at the dull floor.

"Huh, what do you mean?" I asked, I was oblivious to his real emotions.

"Leave it Jackie, you won't understand."

"Say it Yoongi, what did you mean?"

"Why are you even here? Go back to your boyfriend."

"Don't change the subject Yoongi."

"Leave it Jackie. Go back to the camp, it's not safe here. Go back and forget about me, forget that I ever existed" Yoongi turned back to leave but I was quick enough to grab his wrist and restrict his motion.

"Please Yoongi, don't do this. Come back to the camp" I requested.

"I don't want to" he scoffed.

"Why?"

"Because I love you and it's hard for me to see you with someone else!"
