Chapter seventeen (1/1)
Key POV“Babe...? Oh god baby, what’s wrong?!”I ran next to Taemin’s bed and I was immediately wrapped in a warm embrace. I hugged him back with as much force I could gather, since I’ve felt my energy leaving me some long time ago. He was sobbing like mad, but somehow smiling. Like if someone had told him a really funny joke, but it was clear that those were true tears.It hurted. This crying hurted even more. Was he smiling because of his suffering? Or because he felt miserable? I would never want him to feel like this, but he’s already doing it. I was in pure panic because I felt like I was losing him. He got to this hospital because of me and now he feels hopeless. That can be worse than a dead end on our life that just started.I also cried. I cried because I felt horrible, because I couldn’t protect my family like I should have, because I can be a awfull person to Taemin and because I was hurting too much. This was too much drama for me to take in. I felt desperate for happiness and peace again.I wanted those days where Taemin and I would fight because of his hormouns but in the end, we laughed because of our silly fight. I wanted to leave for work with a smile on my face knowing that Taemin and the babies would be safe for the day. I wanted the four of us away from that horrible past.There were multiple times today that I cursed Taemin’s family for every little mistake they did. Everything ended up being carried by Taemin that barely had the strengh to live knowing he doesn’t have a family. And that is so unfair. Did those people knew that the concequences of their irresponsible actions would fall into their successor?! If they did, would they still commit the same errors?Taemin pushed me back slightly and cleaned his face with his hand, coughing a little afterwards. I also cleaned my tears but in a more sloopy way, too tired to anything else. I sat down on a chair that was already by the bed’s side and leaned my head on Taemin’s stomach, resting there.“Just…let me stay here… I need this…”Taemin sighned and leaned back, closing his eyes while his hand rested on my head, caressing my hairs soflty. I also closed my eyes, kissing the babies bump multiple times. It was true that I needed this. I needed the closiness from the three of them. The ones I call my family now. I needed them safe by me.Just like that. Forever. Onew POV“I’m sorry sir, visitors time is over. Mr. Kim is the only one allowed to stay since Mr.Lee asked for him. You’ll have to leave and come back tomorrow.”I nooded slightly and started walking away, head down with extrem tireness. I had so much more to tell Key and I felt in a huge need to see Taemin doing just fine, but I don’t have neither the time of energy to any of those. Today was a taste of hell.The reality just slaped me on the face with an amazing force. I felt defenceless and useless for not being able to help anymore. Just giving him information wasn’t enough for him. Taemin would need more than information to get out of this trouble. But getting information is basicaly the only thing I can do…I toke my phone out of my pocket and gripped it tightly. I wanted to talk to someone, but I had noone. By this time, all my friends in America were in clases or probably recovering fom parting hard last night. I only had Taemin in Korean, so I guess I was alone.Maybe I could pay someone to listen to me. I nodded to myself and moved my fingers quicly on the screen of the phone, being stoped only because of a incoming call of a unknown ID. I smiled and thanked god. Someone was actually calling me, and I could talk to this person, maybe. I pressed the screen where the green light appeared and took my phone to my right ear.“Hi Onew…”“Who is this?”“You still don’t have my number on your phone? Uh…so that’s why you picked up.”“I’m sorry… who the hell are you?” I was getting confused by the strongh voice from the caller and the words he was saying. They just seemed so odd on my ears that I didn’t knew how to react to them.“I’m Minho. Choi Minho. Do you remember me?” I scoffed and shifted the weight of my body to my left leg now, crossing my arms slightly.“How could I forget you? You scared me today and you crashed onto me the first time. And then you got my hand dirty with int.”“Well, that didn’t really went well did it…” He laughed and I couldn’t help but to smile at his low frequency laugh. I could almost feel his chest rising and fall and his breath hitting someone’s face lightly. Someone that was close to him at that moment.“Where are you now?” He asked after stoping laughing. I sighned and looked around, not that I needed. I knew exactly where I was.“I’m at the hospital…”“Why!? Something happened?! Are you okay?!” His voice rose a lot and it was my turn to laugh. Minho sighned from the other line and chuckled too.“You scared me… If you’re not hurt, what are you doing there?”“My friend is in the hospital… ahm… pregnancy problems…” I lied, but just to protect Minho from the mistake we were involved in. I wouldn’t want him to discover all of it and force himself to help me.“Hey do you have a car?”“No… I’m in Korea for maybe two months… I haven’t bought one yet. Why?”“Can I pick you up?” I could almost hear the smile on his face while he spoke. I smiled too but quicly to pass unnoticed. Probably from what I always keep in the shade. My heart.“Would you still insist if I said no?”“Of course I would. I woundn’t give up.”“Then come. It’s cold and I’m tired.”“Lucky you I’m already on my way.” He chuckled and I heared the engine of the car speed up, but just lightly. “You are at the entry or already at the taxi station?”“Entry. Hurry up.”“Yes, yes. I’ll be there in 5 minutes. Sit down or something. I’ll be quick.”“Okay” I nodded and disconnected the call, putting my phone back on my pocket. I sat on a bench near the entry doors, just like Minho had proposed, and slipped my hands inside my pockets, waiting.There were ambulances arriving with sick people in the place I was. They left the pacients with nurses that had weelchairs or stretchers awaiting for them and then took the ambulance back to the road again. It was all a very quick process, and I was lucky I didn’t saw anything shocking and traumatizing.I guess that after that, I spaced out really bad because I don’t remember anything. The only thing that made me get out of a awake dream was the honk of a really close car. I shook my head violently with scared eyes because of the unnexpected noise and looked around, detecting a black car right in front of me. A smiling Minho inside.I smiled back and got up, running towards the car and entering right away. I made a sound desaproving the cold and Minho laughed, making me again, smile.“I’m sorry for the waiting… the trafic is horrible!”“It’s okay, really. I’m glad there was a bench… at least I was able to rest for some minutes.” I sighned in relief and threwed my head back in my seat. Minho chuckled throatly making my skin, somehow, get goosebumps.“So, did you get to see your pregnant friend?”“No… they said I had to come back tomorrow… he’s in good hands though.”“It’s a boy uh.”“Yeah… it’s a boy. And you want to know the best part?”“What?” He asked, chuckling when I turned my all body in his dirrection, both my hands in the edge of the seat, like a entusiastic person. I smiled.“My pregnant friend is your best friend’s lover!”His mouth opened slowly and a deep and slow chuckled left his lips, making my spine shrink and expand at the same time. It was so weird, but not unconfortable. He changed the shift of the car and dropped a hand on my hair, ruffling it slowly.“It’s a small world ah.”I nodded, still with his hand on my hand and we both laughed. There was no unconfortableness this time, something that is rather weird since our last meeting was… strange. But I felt good this time. Like I’ve known this person for more than a day.Now I could really feel the tiredness waching over my body at an amazing speed. The confortable car and the heat that surrounded me made me relax in such way that I almost fell asleep. Minho kept quiet and that only made things worse.If I couldn't tell Minho where I lived, I don’t know what he might do with my unconcious body. But the only thought that rushed my head before I giving in was a simple: What the hell… I trust him. Minho POV While I was driving a soft snore made me look to the side for some seconds instead of keeping my eyes on the road. Onew was lying on his side, sleeping peacefully with his mouth a little bit open, his lips red and moist. I swallowed thickly.“Onew? Are you still with me or have you really fallen asleep?”He didn’t move an inch and I sighned, with a fresh smile on my tired face. When I looked back to the road that was currently completely filled with stoped cars, something hitted me. I had no idea where Onew lived, and he was sound asleep and showed no sighns of waking up soon. I silently thanked the trafic for giving me some time before starting driving now with no destination.Of course the thought of taking him to my house had already flowed into my mind, but I kinda of got a bad feeling about that. I also thought about parking somewhere and wake Onew up, but he looked extremily tired when I fetched him from the hospital. He deserved some rest. I had to think fast.“Oh fuck this…”When the traffic cleared enough for me to get through, I speeded down the street into the highway, towards my house. Jonghyun wouldn’t get near Onew, that was for sure, so he should be okay. I would also keep him in my room just to prevent Jonghyuns sneeky atacks during the night.I was tired, Onew was tired and Jonghyun should be too, so what the hell. It was basically like a sleep over. But Onew wasn’t conscient he was doing it. He wouldn’t freack out so much if he saw me in the morning, right? So I was doing a good thing. I would take him home later.My car easly passed the others at a fast speed and I left on the exit, already near my house. I made some turns and entered my neighborhood and parked in the garage of my house, that took some time opening. After that I took the key of of the car and the engine was turned off. But I still stood in my car, looking forwards.I sighned finnaly, relaxing my shoulders and looking at the sleeping Onew. I got off the car and closed the door quietly, moving on next to the opposite door. I also opened it gently and took of Onew’s seat bell, taking him in my arms, bridal style. It was the most confortable for me.I closed the door also very carefully and pressed the button on my car keys that would close all the doors and activate the alarm. I climbed some stairs and will a lot of effort and precision, I opened the front door. Jonghyun, that was watching T.V., looked at me surprised and jumped off the couch, before seeing Onew in my arms and his happy look turning into a confused look and then a pervy look.“It’s not what you think.”“Of course not. You’re mine.” I scoffed and got pass him, taking Onew up the stairs and into my hallway to my right where my room was. Jonghyun followed me closely.“The visitors room is on the other side Minho.”“He’s sleeping in my room.” I said loud enough to sound resolute but also quietly enough not to wake Onew up.Jonghyun smirked and stoped following me, standing there with his arms crossed in his chest. I also stoped, starting to get suspicious of Jonghyun quietness. He would normally bombard me with questions and tease to no end. But today he was quiet. Terribly quiet.“We are not dating, he’s only sleeping in my room because I know what you can do and I only brought him here because he fell asleep in the car and I didn’t knew where his house is.”“I didn’t ask you anything.” He said with this teasing look on his face that he used almost every day now. I scoffed again, quietly.“Yes, you did. In your head. I heard it.”“Sure, why not. Goodnight, Minho. But remember. You can run, but you can’t hide.”Jonghyun happily blowed me a quick kiss and ran to the other hallway, where his room was. I sighned and looked at Onew sleeping with his head against my chest, his ear glued to my heast, a small smile on his pretty sleeping face. I also smiled and opened the door.I layed him down in the bed and immediately got rid of my jacket and shirt, pulling another more loose and confortable over my head. When I was half way with the shirt, I felt someone hug my waist, making me yelp quietly with surprise.I dropped the shirt and it fell on top of the persons head, covering it almost completely. That was incredibly cute so I chuckled. I pulled the shirt up again and looked at Onew that still had his eyes closed. I guess he was still asleep.“What’s wrong?” I murmured very lowly, knowing that Onew wasn’t awake while he did that. Before talking loud and clearly enough for me to understand, Onew mumbled some nonsenses that made me smile.“Tired…”“I know.”I ruffled his hair lightly and pulled his hands off my waist, lying him again on my king size bed to finish getting dressed. I pulled down my pants quicly and pulled my confortable, grey and baggy pants on. I loved sleeping with loose closes, they didn’t hug my body perfectly but I could still keep myself warm.Next I started taking Onew’s jacket off, dropping it on my secretary chair and started unbuttoning his shirt. I coughed lightly when I saw his chest completely free of clothes and looked away for a second, collecting my sanity. I nodded one time to myself and got up, leaving Onew half undresses still sleeping on the bed and moved to my closet, getting confortable clothes for him to sleep in.I sat him on the bed, supporting his limb body against my chest while I pulled the white shirt down his neck and putted his arms on the shirt. It felt like I was dressing a big baby. I laughed quietly at that thought.I dropped him on the bed again and took of his shoes, putting them next to the jacket and the shirt on my chair. At the speed of light, his pants joined the rest of his clothes. That was the most tricky part for a person like me.I had to stop to breath and swallow the saliva that had come to taste Onew’s body in order to procede. In less than 2 minutes I had Onew ready to bed. I smiled vitoriously to myself and opened the bed, pulling Onew into my arms again and dropping him on the left side of my bed. I sighned and covered his body almost completely. Only his head stayed outside.I jogged to the other side of the bed and flopped myself into my side of the bed, looking at the ceiling, akwardly. He’s asleep, so why should I be afraid of looking at him? I thought while swallowing some air.I turned my head and looked at his perfect face, smiling sweetly. I brought my hand to his nose and poked it lightly, moving next to poke each one of his eyes.Just like before, his arms quicly wrapped himselfs around me but this time, arounf my neck. I chuckled lightly and shiffet my body closer to him, pressing our chests together while I wrapped my arms also around his waist. I could only wrap one arm though.I felt Onew sighn with a smile on his face and I questioned myself about what he was dreaming. He only told nonsenses and I couldn't catch a thing. But they made me smile and sometimes laugh. Even in his sleep he kept making me happy.I closed my eyes after his head was under mine, completely embebed under my head. The last song I had heard today, strangely, started flowing in my mind, making me slowly lose conscience and drift also to a deep slumber. Okay!! This chapter is big!
