04 pretty boy

Classes for the boys finally came to an end and they all made their way out of the busy campus. 

"Let's go to a cafe," Felix suggested.

"I have nothing to do so I'm in!" Jeongin jumped in excitement.

"I'll go too but I have a shift at three so I'll be leaving early," Seungmin added.

Jisung couldn't help but pout. "Sorry, guys I have work."

"Do you ever get a day off?" Seungmin asked in concern. 

"Didn't you have a shift this morning? What more could you possibly do? At this point you're overworking yourself," Jeongin asked in concern.

"See Jisung, I told you that you're overworking yourself! You never give yourself time to relax, especially on the weekends! Which, let me remind you are your days off! But no, you go out and find more work to do," Felix complained.

"That's just how my life is," Jisung gave an apologetic smile. "I'll make it up to you all by giving myself the weekend off so we all can hang out. Deal?" 

"Fine," The three agreed, excited for the weekends to come. 

Jisung hummed as he bid the three a farewell. Parting ways with the group, the male made his way to the library where he had to tutor kids. After the tutoring lessons, he stopped by a restaurant, where he and Seungmin worked at. With his shift at the restaurant ending, he made his way to the convenience store nearby, working as a cashier. Finally, wrapping up his job cycle, he made his way towards a club, where he worked as a bartender.

"Excuse me, I would like to order," Someone tried to get the bartender's attention.

"What can I get for you today?" Jisung turned around, putting his fake face on. Meeting eyes with the customer, he couldn't help but wonder where he's seen the male before. 

"I would like a whiskey sour and you on the side." The man said as he licked his lips.

Okay, that was smooth. Jisung admitted to himself. "One whiskey sour. Anything else?"

"Yes, you." The man demanded.

Now, this is getting annoying. Jisung rolled his eyes. "Sir this is a bar not a hook-up place. If you would like a hook-up, I suggest the dance floor. There are plenty of horny people over there, always grinding on each other. Now if you excuse me."

Suddenly, the customer started to laugh like a mad man. "Oh my, I haven't laughed like that in a while. Did little Hannie forget about me?"

Jisung's breath hitches. I've never heard that name in ages- There's no way-

"I see that little Hannie remembers me now," The man smirked.

Jisung snapped out of his thoughts and pulled himself together. "Sir I think you had too much to drink today. I think you've mistaken me for someone else."

"But I haven't had a single drop of alcohol. I just came here, remember?" The man chuckled, getting closer to Jisung, grabbing his wrist, and dragging him away from the bar. 

Trying to dig his heels to the ground, Jisung started to fight back. "You've got the wrong person! Let me go" 

The man only applied more pressure to his grip causing the boy to yelp in pain. "You can't fool me, Peter. Not this time" 

Shit, shit, shit! Come on, Jisung, find a way to escape! You did it three years ago, you can do it again! Jerking his hand towards his body, he used his foot to kick the male's grip. But the man had an iron grip and didn't loosen his hold at all. 

"Stop squirming, it's not going to do anything." The kidnapper then punched Jisung in the stomach.

Jisung could feel all of his air knocked out of his body. He groaned as he dropped onto his knees, trying to breathe. Suddenly, he felt the iron grip loosen. Confused to the sudden action, he looked up and met Felix's eyes. Hearing a grunt, he averted his gaze and saw the kidnapper being beaten up by, Minho?!

Looking back at Felix, Jisung couldn't help but ask. "What are you doing here?"
