Chapter 13 - A Deal (1/1)

A Deal *Hye Soon POV* I woke up with a migraine. I massaged the aching side of my head, trying to make it gone, but it was useless. I then stood up and heading to the bathroom. Maybe a shower would help me. I stood in front of the mirror and stared blankly at my reflection. Gosh, I looked so bad. I had those black circles under my eyes and the over-dried tears stain all over my face. My face was never this pale. I looked horrible. I turned the tap on. I felt the coldness of the water in my palms. I stared at the water for a moment. If only my life could flow like water. Steady, calmly, without any obstacle. I sighed heavily. I splashed my face with the cold water. The coldness sure was calming. After 15 minutes of showering, I stepped out from the bathroom. I walked to the closet, fishing out a random blouse and skinny jeans. I was not in a mood for dressing up. I combed my long straight hair, leaving it wet. It would dry by itself though. I once again stared at my reflection in the mirror. I put on some foundation to cover my eyes bag. Finished with it, I walked out from my room. I walked down the stairs, making my way to the kitchen. Nobody was there. Hye Rin Unnie must be on mission. Since Omma’s death, this mansion was like dying too. No more a warm morning greeting. No more the delicious smell of breakfast. No more a mother’s cheering before heading out. Sigh. I missed Omma. Without having breakfast, I headed to university. Actually, there was no more use to attend that university, since Yunho had known my true identity. But yeah, life must go on, right? I still had a mission after all. I arrived after 15 minutes of driving. I got off from my car and making my way to my class. I was strolling along the hallway when suddenly someone grabbed my hand and dragged me to a room.  *Yunho POV* I was walking to my class. Honestly, I wasn’t at a mood for studying, not that I need to study anyways. But well, here I am, walking to my stupid class. Yesterday was a long day. I was exhausting, both mentally and physically. I never felt this tired in my entire life as Vampire. Suddenly, someone caught my attention. There Hye Soon was, walking aimlessly in the hallway. She seemed on her own world. And then, I remembered our unsolved-yet problem. I followed her behind, waiting her to notice me, but she did not aware. Growing impatient, I grabbed her hands and dragged her with me. I led her to DBSK private room, considering no one was there. I closed the door and pinned her against it. I put both of my hands on the door, framed her between them. She looked startled at first but soon she managed to calm down and shot me a glare. I noticed the dark circle below her eyes. She looked tired. “What do you want?” she asked me coldly. I could not help but flashed a smirk. I did not know why but I liked the feisty side of her. “Well, you don’t forget our business, do you? I asked her back. She did not take her glareoff. “What business?” she asked me again, of course still with a cold tone. “You said that you wanna kill me if I’m not mistaken, didn’t you?” I looked deeply into her eyes. Gosh, and like always, itleft a familiar feeling for me. “Yeah, so?” she said without taking her eyes from me. She kept glaring deeply at me. As if eyes could talk, we stayed there staring at each other, until she looked away. “Tell me what you want! I don’t have time to kidding around.” she said, still looking away. I managed to notice a faint pinkish shade forming at her cheek. Was it possible for a Slayer to blush in front of a Vampire? I found it rather weird. Jeez, why was I checking her out anyways? I cleared my throat. “Well, I wanna offer you a deal.” I told her. She spun around to meet eyes with me. “What deal?” she raised an eyebrow. “Don’t you curious about the relationship between ‘The Lord’ and ‘The Founder’?” I provoked her. I could feel that she was interested. “Just spill it.” She said. Ha! I knew she was interested. I knew that. I smirked again. “Let’s cooperate.” I said. As soon as the words came out from my mouth, her eyes widened. Did my idea heard so weird? Well, it was indeed weird if I thought about it again. A Vampire offered to cooperate with a Slayer. I bet this was the first time in history.  *Hye Soon POV* “Are you crazy?” I blurted out. Did I suffer a hearing disorder? Jung Yunho, the Pure Blood, asked me to cooperate with him? Me? A Slayer? No way! Suddenly, he busted out laughing. What’s so funny? “Yah!” I snapped him but he kept laughing. Well, this was the first time I saw his laugh anyways. And yes, it did look sweet. He must laugh more. Wait, what was I thinking? Argh! Darn it, he was a Vampire. He was you mission target. Hye Soon-ah, come back to your sense! “Well, I can guarantee you that I’m not crazy.” He tried to suppress his laugh. “So?” he asked again, still smirking amusedly. “I won’t cooperate with a Vampire!” I said stubbornly. “Why not? Don’t you want to know what happen with them in past?” he tried to persuaded me. And yeah, he did it well. I started to remember about the painting, the photographs, the notes, the voices, the scenes. “Deal.” I blurted out suddenly, seemed that my mouth did not cooperate well with my brain. Gah! What had just happened with me? Why did I accept his offer? But guess what? The curiosity kills a cat.  here’s the update… hehe~enjoy.. and tell me what do u think about it… ^^sorry if it's kinda boring.. ==’ ©Dhee14, 08.19.2011
