Words were duped into a forfeiting smile, when tears also jilted him. 

Peeling paint fell off the walls- a shade of yale blue on the gap between Daeseong and Minhyuk. Grasshoppers were chirring outside.

Daeseong couldn't venture to annul the arms he opened for Minhyuk to run in, 

"I know. I know that someone is not me anymore, like it used to be. So many things have changed but…I haven't. These arms were always yours and will be so. I don't want anything in return, like it used to be."

The weight of his heart was too heavy on Minhyuk's solemn proclivities. "I'm sorry Daeseong, even though I don't know why I can't stop myself. I don't have any justification for anything I'm doing, how could I when I don't fucking know what am I doing?" Minhyuk's features grimaced, "I owe you an apology, Daeseong."

Minhyuk fell into Daeseong’s benign bosom. His own chest was too cold, too freezing as opposed to the one holding him. "Why aren't you crying?" 

"Why do you want me to cry?" Minhyuk's preceding mindlessness caused Daeseong to titter. "Do I look pretty while crying?" 

"That you always are."

"Really?" Daeseong asked. 

"Really. The prettiest boy I've ever laid my eyes on."

"More than Eve?" 

Minhyuk pulled back from the hug, "Well…you don't want to hear it, do you?"

-

The way- the way Minhyuk's fingers were enclasping Sehun's petite waist. Wooshik was only pining away from a reverence, when looking at them.

He wished he didn't open the door. He wished he didn't have to apprise Minhyuk of the call. He wished he never knew what Minhyuk and Sehun does in everyone's exclusion. 

The dyed blonde adhered by the treen door Sehun flung shut. Wooshik's heartbeats chaotic, "Why was he touching you the way I want to touch you?" His fist clenched, teeth scraped, "Why was he looking at you the way I want to look at you?" Wooshik braced himself,

"But I...I would never have cared about what he did. That is until...until you reciprocate. Why were you also looking at him the way I have fantasized you looking at me? Fantasize you looking at me, everyday? Why...?"

He filched a last glance at that closed door behind him,

"Why did you let him touch you, Sehun? Why did you agree to be so close to him, huh?"

Wooshik attained the stairs, going astray in his head. The blonde man not looking at anything other than his moronic thoughts,

"Am I being a creep to you, Sehun? Am I already the villain in your story?"

He got on with every step, asinine. His silence speaking volumes because none's heart makes a noise…when it breaks, Please just once tell me you don't love him, too. Someone will be shattered otherwise."

His steps shuffled, "You don't love him ri- Ahh!!" Wooshik bounced back to the mood of realism, "What shit?" He peered down to come across a stack of splintered beer bottles, "What on earth?" 

Massaging his bleeding foot, Wooshik perched on one of the stairs, "Oof!" It was only then that Daeseong and Minhyuk invited his apprehension, "Daeseong?? What are you doing here?"

"Huh?" Daeseong recoiled, "Captain!! When did you come here?" He asked, manumitting Minhyuk of his embosom. 

"Awww how would you know, when you're too engrossed in each other?" Wooshik flashed a smirk, "Minnie, shouldn't your Eve know that you're a double gamer?"

"SIR!! WATCH YOUR TONGUE," Minhyuk's eyes went up in flames, "Just to win him over, you aren't going to slaughter your morale, are you?"

"Minnie, come here."

Minhyuk narrowed his visage, "Why?" 

The dyed blonde snickered, "Are you kidding me?" A ludicrous, abnormal snicker, "I don't know why all of a sudden I can't stand your sight."

"How can you when the one you want, wants me?" A smirk attested to Minhyuk's smile. 

"Just come here."

"Why?" 

"Get rid of this broken glass piece that penetrated through my foot. Then, dress the injury," Wooshik put forward his left feet, signaling at Minhyuk to come to him and bear in mind his words. 

"C- Captain, uh, can I do it instead?" He knew Wooshik only wanted to incite the demon in Minhyuk, "Afterall it was I and Joon hyung who were roistering this morning, and at the heat of the moment we forgot to clean the mess. Later on we forgot, we- we are sorry, Cap- Captain!! I would dress your wo-"

Daeseong sprinted to that superior man, "Minnie really didn't know any of it, I- I- I mean we're sorry. Minnie, you should go back and do your work!" Daeseong, with his head bowed down pulled the piece of glass stuck into Wooshik's foot out, "H- here!" He got up to accommodate the first aid. 

"Wait!" Wooshik pulled his jaws in, "Sit down." 

"Uh," twiddling with his fingers, Daeseong sat down, "Ye- Yes, Captain!" He squeaked with a throbbing heart. 

"Show me your foot."

"Huh?" Daeseong daringly met eyes with the blonde, his mind foretelling of a misfortune. 

"Show me your foot? Am I not audible enough?" 

"Oh," As said Daeseong exhibited his right feet, "H- here." 

Wooshik tickled the surface of Daeseong’s foot before stabbing the gory weapon into it, that a few minutes ago were obtained out by Daeseong himself, 

"Didn't you know it? Lee Wooshik doesn't like it when someone unnecessary interferes."

"Daeseong!!??" Minhyuk rushed to the stairs, "Daeseong, are you okay??" Daeseong could only shriek with sorrow, "Ahhh!! Minnie!!" He fisted on Minhyuk's shirt, "I- it- Ahhhh!!" He bawled. 

"I'm sorry Daeseong. This bastard has gone crazy," Minhyuk was frenzied with fear and irrational thoughts, "I'm here don't worry, let me aid it for you!!" 

"Hey!!" Wooshik clouted him in the head, "He can take care of himself. You look after mine. Aid my injuries if you don't want Daeseong to get more hurt."

"LEE WOOSHIK, HAVE YOU GONE CRAZY OR SOMETHING???" Minhyuk huffed, "Are you aware that you're not behaving normal?? I don't what effect does Eve has on you, but this is the least he would want. Believe me, I know him better than you, even if it sounds harsh it is just the truth, Lee Wooshik!!"

Indignant, Wooshik kicked Minhyuk with his wounded feet, whipping Minhyuk up into a fantastic rage when he noticed Minhyuk's forehead hit the handrail and drained off blood, 

"Sehun doesn't love you Minnie. He's only helping you out because he has something to lose!!" Wooshik trembled with indignation, "He cares about June-Way that is the sole rea-" Wooshik had trouble in breathing, "reason…he…he…"

Daeseong was flabbergasted. Even though, some time or other all of the goons working under Wooshik has fallen prey to his ferocity, none has seen the Lee Wooshik like the way Daeseong is seeing, "Captain…?" He retreated, not afraid, but disconcerted. 

"You jealous bastard, huh? You know that Eve will never come to you how much you want. Is this why you're so distraught? Poor you that you can never take my place. Eve would never want you, he- he only want- wants me. Only I- I'm there in his heart," Minhyuk stood up erected, "Loser!!" He took hold of the blonde's collar and thrashed him down on those broken beer bottles. 

Wooshik's face was screwed up with blood, "Minnie, do you want the money…." His huffing consumed half of the words, "You want the money or not? It's-" he panted, "It's not...not a funny amount."

"Fuck you and your money!! Nothing matters to me more than Eve right now," he picked Wooshik up by his linen, "And I would do everything to make sure he's definitely away from at least you." 

"You're too late, punk," the heftier made him trip over until Minhyuk slumped off face down through the stairs. 

"Wh- what are they doing?" Daeseong took his step back at each step, "I need to…tell Eve. Only…only he can handle this stupidity," he gulped and agonized pummeled at the locked door, "Eve! Eve please open the door!! Eve please, it's urgent!!" His eyes moved to and fro from the two men grappling within themselves to the door behind where the cause of all these lingered. 

"What do you think of yourself, huh? Because you're- oh wait, you were my most trusted assistant, you can get away with anything??" Wooshik trampled on Minhyuk's throat with his Jordans put purposefully on, "Sorry to disappoint you, darling."

Minhyuk turned him over, picking up Wooshik's leather strap he wore, "Goodbye, Lee Wooshik!!" With an iniquitious smirk, he rounded the leather belt around Wooshik's throat, endeavoring to strangulate him. "Good bye, darling!!" 

"MINNIE!!"
