WITH YOU - haechan

— REVELATION

"Oh Chenle? And Jisung? What are you guys doing here?" Rinyoung narrowed her eyes, seeing her juniors walk into the kitchen with a similarly confused expression.

"We live here? Why are you here?" Chenle asked. His eyes were narrowed in bewilderment. Just woken up, his whole mind was in a daze, but seeing a familiar face in his kitchen made everything much more dizzying.

"I live here too, starting from last night..." Her words shocked them.

"Oh, you must've met Donghyuck—"

"Dong what?"

"Lee Donghyuck—" As the name slipped Chenle's tongue, the girl snapped her fingers in realization.

"Isn't that the guy you thought was my soulmate? Well you guessed—" Rinyoung couldn't her sentence as a arm abruptly snaked around her waist— pulling her into Haechan's side.

"Correct." He finished her sentence, smirking mischievously.

"Ew, get the fuck off me." Ignoring the fluttering of her heart, the girl pushed her soulmate off her, as if he was a dangerous toxin, which metaphorically he was. "But what do you mean? His name is Haechan." At that moment, everything went dead silent, until Rinyoung had the courage to break it again. "Right?"

"That's his alias, Rinyoung noona." As her real name fell from the younger's lips, her heart rate picked up as she internally panicked. She hoped that he didn't hear the Rin in front of her name.

Unfortunately, he did. "Well, look at that. Someone's got another name too." Donghyuck teased, he masked his surprise with a devilish smirk— hiding his sudden peak of interest.

"Chenle!"

"Sorry.." The chinese mumbled, embarrassed of his own mistake— a scarlet hue blanketing his round cheeks.

"So what's your full name, Kim Young or I guess, you're now known as Rinyoung." Donghyuck raised his left brow as he spoke slowly, mocking the new information he was given— even though his real name was revealed.

"It's none of you business, asshole-"

Before she could finish her sentence, Johnny had finally spoken again, interrupting her malicious reply. "Wait, aren't you Im Rinyoung? I don't know why I didn't realize sooner—"

"I—"

"Cat got your tongue? Wow, didn't know my soulmate would be a rich, snobby woman as yourself," Rinyoung clenched her jaw. "You're probably like your father— a back stabbing, piece of trash that does no good to society. Someone who's life is just all about money—" The woman knew he was doing this on purpose, and she tried her hardest to not let it affect her, but as slicing words kept falling from his lips— it became harder to hold back.

"Listen up, Dongfuck or whatever your damn name is. You don't know me. You'll never know me. So let's just stop this conversation here, because you have no right to judge me, or speak to me—"

"You can never survive in my world." Suddenly, Donghyuck's teasing and playful demeanor dropped, along with the bright atmosphere.

"What do you mean?" It was like, her bomb fuse went out, as her voice came out small and like a whisper.

"You're weak, and let everything get to you so easily. You're too sheltered from the real world, you wouldn't bare a minute in my shoes. You can't be my soulmate, you'll kill yourself."

"Well it was against my will! Do you think I wanted to be stuck with some lowlife like you!"

"Lowlife?" He tsked. "We are all the same, under the skin and under our facades. You're like me, whether you like it or not."
