— chapter six: oh, i'm in trouble —

donghyuck woke up to a door slamming. he jumped and panicked as it was all dark around him.

"chill." mark's voice spoke next to him. donghyuck frowned as he felt the fabric around his eyes taken off. as his vision had focused he could see he was still sitting inside the car. the door on his side opened and mark nudged him to get out. donghyuck did and looked around.

he could easily identify the area as nice to live in. it looked like gangnam but he wasn't sure whether they actually were seoul or not. there was houses, most of them in complete darkness. understandable so as it was late night already.

a few men were standing in front of another car. the scene was only lit by the moon light and the car lights.

"are we there?" donghyuck asked the guy who had opened his door.

"almost, not even a  hundred meters to the building." the guy answered and pointed at a building across the street. donghyuck looked up at him. he was tall, had plumb lips and hair that looked brown in the lights of the car. he smiled down at donghyuck. the latter noticed a certain warmth around the man which made him very likeable to donghyuck.

"johnny, donghyuck, come here!" taeyong called him. donghyuck followed the tall man to the group. the men stood around a map which was laying on the engine hood. it showed the structure of a building, probably the one where renjun and jeno were held captive.

"jaemin and jaehyun are going in here." taeyong said and pointed to a point on the map. donghyuck was watching his hand and lips moving but his mind was on stand-by. he couldn't concentrate on what the man was saying, all he could think was renjun and jeno. he prayed to god everything would go well.

"if something goes wrong, johnny and doyoung go in and rescue the boys. kun is here too, so if anything happens to any if you four we're save. he has his medical kit with him." taeyong explained to jaemin and jaehyun who were already fiddling with their guns.

"got it. we'll stay in touch." jaehyun nodded. he and jaemin exchanged a quick look before waving goodbye to the group. donghyuck watched them walk from the parking lot into a little alley between two buildings.

"and now?" donghyuck asked.

"now we wait." taeyong told him. he, kun and johnny sat down in the back of the one car. the man called doyoung was seemingly keeping watch as his eyes never left the building on the other side of the street where jaehyun and jaemin had vanished a few minutes ago. donghyuck followed his gaze and his jaw dropped as he saw two silhouettes climb up to the roof of the building.

"i wouldn't worry if i were you. they have done that so many times." mark commented. donghyuck flinched. mark had been standing next to him the whole time and he hadn't even noticed.

"how do you know?" he asked, still not sure if what mark was saying was true. mark took a deep breath and then explained "i know them and i've watched them do this thousands of times probably. especially jaemin."

"why especially jaemin?" donghyuck questioned out of curiosity. maybe mark could finally clear a few things up that haechan had been wondering about.

"because he's in my-" mark started but stopped himself, "nevermind. i guess i shouldn't answer any if your questions any more."

"why?" donghyuck whined. a grin appeared on mark's face as he watched donghyuck pout. it didn't last long though and within seconds mark put on his poker face again.

"i might say something i shouldn't. ask taeyong if you're that curious, jesus." he said.

"jesus." donghyuck mocked him and rolled his eyes. he gave mark a final look before saying sassily "you know what, i'm going to ask taeyong. i can't have even one nice conversation with you."
