The Facility

Flickering Flame

Watching how the fresh blood oozed out of Jungkook's cuts always brought a pleasurable smirk to Perrie's face.

The blonde drank from her water at their lunch table that afternoon, her eyes fixated on the activity which the boy was taking part in. "So it doesn't hurt at all when you do that? When you cut yourself that way?" She asked nonchalantly.

Jesy's eyes were fixated on the entrance of the room. She was taking in who came in and who left. Although, who left was not necessarily of major importance. "I wonder who ended up taking him in the end . . ." She was referring to the new guy . . . Jimin Park. His face came to mind and she wore a sly smile, thinking of all the things she could do with him.

Jungkook finished the star he was carving onto the underside of his forearm. Since he constantly cut into his skin to form images, there were scars upon scars upon scars on his skin. After some healed he would sometimes redraw them or draw a new picture over them.

"Not much blood Jungkook. If you used this knife you may not even have an arm." Hoseok showed Jungkook a picture of an incredibly sharp knife from Japan on his cell phone. Next to his lunch he also had a drawing book open where he drew several images of knives.

Jungkook appeared satisfied with his work. "This line here leaked a lot of blood. Right now it is still spilling onto the table." He chuckled softly before raising it to show Perrie. "It doesn't hurt. It brings me pleasure." And now he was licking off the blood.

Perrie shook her head at him before wiping off some of the blood on the table with a tissue. She then tossed it away from them before looking to Jesy at her side. The girl's lunch tray was untouched. None of her veggie taco eaten. "Jes I purposefully asked them to give you this. They made it for you so you wouldn't have to eat the sub and yet you still haven't touched it." She flicked her finger against the tray to get the girl's attention.

Jesy refused to look at her. "I'll get to that in a minute. Let me just . . . keep looking out for 'im . . ." She would have kept trying to get Jimin to be part of her circle but at some point during the day she lost track of him.

Perrie rolled her eyes then looked at the two other guys across from them. "She's gonna let the whole lunchtime period pass before she puts a thing in her bloody mouth."

Hoseok looked away from his drawing. "Bloody? Did she cut it with a knife?"

"No you . . . hey and you should eat too. No drawing! The school actually gives us food that isn't crap. Eat it God damn it." Perrie looked tired of all of them.

Hoseok got back to his drawing.

Perrie groaned before grabbing Jesy by the face and making her look at her. She wore a harsh frown.

Jesy blinked her eyes once she saw Perrie's peering into hers. She now raised a slick brow. "What is it Pooky pie? Have I upset you?" She smiled mischievously.

Perrie blushed but then released her, seeming less mad. "No it's . . . you . . . well . . ." She somehow forgot what she wanted to say.

Jesy tilted her head slowly before smiling and looking back to the entrance. "I like Jimin."

Jungkook felt his insides explode from fury! "Jimin? The new boy from Korea? What's there to like? He appears as if he's afraid of everything happening around him."

"He does not like knives." Hoseok said while focusing on his drawing. His drawings looked really good since he was so focused on the details of the knives.

Jesy looked sultry as she gazed upon Jungkook. "He's special." She said in a whisper before smiling and widening her gorgeous eyes. Once she saw Jungkook melt and blush she released a small giggle.
