you said nothing, not that you didn't want to but simply because you couldn't. instead you wrapped your arms around him, holding him in your embrace. you felt his grip tighten around your waist, pulling your closer into his chest, muffling a sigh of relief into the crook of your neck. the silence was killing you, your heart aching with relief and somewhat anguish, more so of the way you had treated him.

"seungmin, there is something i need to tell you" you pulled away from his hesitantly, his expression was somewhat confused and concerned.

"i lost your camera...well, someone stole it, a woman whose house i was staying at. when i confronted her about it, she knocked me out and left me under the bridge" you started. "i went back to her house after i woke up and she was gone, she took the camera with her"

"what would an old lady want with your camera?" the concern and anger grew on his features, not for the loss of his camera, but the fact that someone had deliberately tried to hurt you. he sat up in silence, he was fuming at the thought of someone hurting you. he grabbed your hands, rubbing his thumbs over the tops of your knuckles.

"are you alright?"  he muttered, keeping his eyes fixated on your knuckles.

"i'm fine, but seungmin. your camera-"

"let's get you home, we'll look for the camera in the morning." you simply nodded, taking his hands as you led you back to his car, the car ride was intentionally silent, he did not want to bombard you with questions you were not ready to answer. amongst the silence he had realised you had been wearing the same yellow dress he had brought you, and lord he remembers the what happened the last time he saw you in that dress. he pulled into the driveway, opening up the passenger door for you. he led you to the bathroom, an action that made you cock an eyebrow with confusion.

"i already had a shower" you chuckled, wrapping your arms around his neck half hazardously.

"doll, you were left under a bridge all night" he smirked, turning on the water.

"and besides, who said we were gonna just shower"
