"Yongguk," Sara spoke as her arms snaked around his waist from behind, "why weren't you honest with me?"
He hung his head as he dared to not look her in the eyes, "I'm sorry, but I had to do it for your safety. If I didn't, well, it would have been bad."
Tears rimmed her eyes as she turned him so he could face her, "So you thought by pretending you were dead that would help? Do you realize how many times I stayed up sobbing because you weren't here anymore? My heart was broken, Yongguk! How could you-" but she was cut off as his lips pressed gently against her's.
"Yah, I'm sorry. It ripped my heart into shreds to know that I was hurting you like that, but I couldn't tell you or else more danger would have harmed you and I wouldn't have been able to live with myself since I'm barely able to now," Yongguk explained as his hands cupped both of sides of her face.
"Wait, if I know now, won't that--" but the look of stress and anxiousness on Yongguk's face answered her question. She knew that what her and Blondie had done put them into even greater danger and knowing this, caused her to suddenly pull back from Yongguk.
He looked at her in pure confusion as she shook her head, "Why aren't you returning to your other form, Yongguk?"
Biting his lips, he shook his head, "Once you know and I know that you know, I can't regain my other appearance."
She nodded as tears of guilt began spilling over the lids of her eyes and streaming down her face. Yongguk frowned as he pulled her into his arms protectively, "Don't worry jagiya. Everything will be fine, trust me."
Giving her a reaussring kiss on the forehead, the two pulled apart and began walking down the hallway to the office so he could sign up for school again.
"I'm happy you're okay," she spoke as her grip on his hand tightened.
He looked down at her and smiled as he pulled away for a brief second to bend down and tie her shoe, "I don't want you tripping."
She smiled and thanked him as he stood, but suddenly, every light in the building shut off. The feeling in the hallway suddenly grew eerie and cold as Yongguk desperately reached out for her hand to hold it tight.
"Sara, don't leave my side," Yongguk ordered calmly.
He felt her hand slip into his as the two waited there in complete darkness.
