Chapter FourteenBelieve in Me When Zelo said he wasn't going to let someone lay a finger on me, he was not kidding. Everyday he would jump in front of me if someone came near me, making me groan and try to leave, but thankfully I had recovered very quickly and that made Zelo happy. "I'm so glad you're all healed. Now we can go back to school," he cooed as he walked down the stairs with me. "Yeah . . . you're not going to school with me. Leave the house with the rest of B.A.P," I told him, continuing to walk down the stairs even though Zelo had stopped. "Wait, LaeJoon-ah--"He had ran to catch up and I turned suddenly, making him stop before he could run into me. "I don't think you should talk to me with such informal language.""But I'm older than you," he said matter-of-factly. "Yes you are, but if you talk to me like that people will think we're familiar with each other.""We are." He wiggled his eyebrows in the weird, creepy way that made me want to burst out laughing and scooch a little farther away from him. "Go away--""Before I begin to protect you for 27/7, I must know who did this to you," he said with a low voice. Telling him would only make it worse, it wouldn't do anything. I know that they beat me up, but I wouldn't want them to hurt as I did. I don't want anyone to hurt as I did. "No one," I lied, pushing past him and leaving the house. "HANI, YOU'RE DEAD!" Daehyun screamed as he flew past me and down the road. "Daehyun hyung!" Zelo shouted. Zelo must have followed me out here. . . .Daehyun ignored him and he kept running. He was running so fast that if I had looked away for just one more second, I would have missed him round the corner. "What's wrong with him?" Zelo asked no one in particular. "Why's he mad at HaNi?"He knows. He must know. Why else would he have done all of that? What is he going to do?How did he find out?I ran after him, going just as fast, my breath quickening. "LaeJoon-ah!"Don't call me that, I thought, but I did not turn around or stop, I kept running. I could see him sooner or later, running towards the group of girls who had attacked me. No, Daehyun don't! Please stop! STOP!He didn't stop until he was right in front of them. I still had to sprint to reach them, but I felt like I would be too late. Right when Daehyun lifted his hand to let it down on HaNi, I shouted. I don't know what I shouted since every emotion I've felt since I knew B.A.P just floated out, but it was enough for Daehyun to not ruin his entire career by hitting her. He slowly turned around and saw me, his eyes wide. I could see him mouth, LaeJoon-ah.I couldn't help but let a relieved smile touch my lips, but it didn't last very long. I just remembered that the doctor told me not to do highly active activities, like . . . running. My side burst with pain and I fell to the ground, getting dust from the dirt all over my uniform. "Ah!" I squealed. The giggles and laughter faded away as my vision blurred."LaeJoon-ah? LaeJoon-ah. Can you hear me LaeJoon-ah?"The voice was familiar, but my mind was running too quickly for me to put the pieces together. My heart sped up much faster than it should be and my vision focused and unfocused randomly. The person above me was someone that I could not make out, but even through all of the pain and confusion, my body tingled at their touch. I moaned as I felt myself being lifted into the air and carried somewhere.    Do you know what's it's like to need tons of help but you feel so useless towards the person helping? I've never felt that way before because I was usually the one giving people the help, but now I feel as useless as ever. I just sat on the bed with my eyes wide open as the scenery around me sunk in. The nursing office in our own school was a place I had never been to . . . until now. "You were supposed to stay away from intense activity, am I right?" a nurse said, her red lipstick perfectly in shape with her lips. I nodded, my head spinning. "Then why were you running?" she asked, putting a cool, damp rag to my forehead. "Because Daehyun--"No, I don't want to let anyone know that I know B.A.P. And no one can know that Daehyun knew it was HaNi and her little wannabe's. "Daehyun?" she asked, pausing for a second, her eyes on my face. "How do you know Daehyun? What does he have to do with it?"I swallowed. "Nothing, he just . . . stole my homework. He seems to be a big tease." I forced an eyeroll. "No, he's not. He never gives any girl the time of day," she said, some weird edge in her voice. "Um . . . How would you know this?"She looked shocked at my question, but then she leaned back and went to the door and cleared her throat. "Just rest," were her last words before she left the room, her heels echoing softly in the hallway. I grabbed the rag she left on the side of the table and put it to my forehead and closed my eyes. That was close."LaeJoon-ah~" My eyes opened quickly and I saw Zelo staring down at me. I screamed and flinched away. He chuckled. "Why are you so jumpy? Don't you know that I'm going to watch your every move now?" He smiled, flashing his bright, white teeth. I looked away and sighed. "You sound like a pervy stalker right now, do you know that?""I know," he sang, sitting down next to me on the bed. Our arms touched and heat ran up my face, making me blush. I kept my face turned away so I could give it time to go away. "But right now, I'm your pervy stalker." The smile in his voice was self-evident. I turned at that, though, forgetting about my blush entirely. "Wait, why are you my--?""Hello," he said, rolling his eyes at me. "I'm your guard every hour of everyday. I might as well be your pervy stalker, right?" He lifted his eyebrows and looked at me. "By the way, you should call me Junhong-ah, since I call you LaeJoon-ah."I rolled my eyes, completely ignoring his last question. "Don't be ridiculous. I'm fine.""But Daehyun was going to hit HaNi. The same could happen to you. Why was he mad at her anyways?" he asked, his eyebrows creased. I guess calling him Junhong-ah wasn't that important anyways. . . ."Um . . . No reason," I lied. "Is she okay?" he asked, truly worried for her. I wanted to punch myself in the face. Why couldn't I just tell him? I'm sure he would understand if he knew. Just tell him LaeJoon. "HaNi and her friends did that to me. They locked me in a room and beat me up after I left you," I said, not taking a breath. Nothing happened. No one spoke and my eyes were closed. I slowly opened my eyes and saw Zelo staring at me, his eyes cold and hard. "W-what?" I asked. "I know you don't like her, but you shouldn't say something like that. Don't be a jerk."I could only stare at him. He doesn't believe me. "Nevermind," he groaned, turning away and leaving the room, making me lay on the bed alone. The sun was covered by a cloud and the lighting in the room was dark, making my mood worsen. My heart hurt from the realization that Zelo doesn't believe in me. He still picks HaNi over me. After saving me and being worried, he only changed his mind and went back to her. I wasn't lying, Zelo. "Junhong-ah," I whispered, looking at my hands. "I wasn't lying." I looked up at the door he had just walked through minutes ago and my eyes watered, blurring my vision slightly. "Believe me, Junhong-ah. Please believe me." I begged to nothing at all, just an empty space in an empty room. I called you Junhong. I added the 'ah'. Please, just believe in me, Junhong-ah!  Rude, isn't he?
