By: izanamiwiles
Pairing: Changmin x OFC
Rating: romance, angst
Disclaimer: Changmin's not mine....but the story is ^^
Summary: Yoong Won is up to no good....
Pushed by Yoong Won, Livia stumbled accross the few furnitures that were inside the tiny utility room. A huge pipe in the middle, a broken chair on one side and an old broom on the other. That was all this closet contained. No windows, no air supply and definitely no light, making the atmosphere inside even more unbearable.
She turned around quickly looking for a way to escape, but the only way out was from the same door she was thrown in.
The green eyed girl grasped the doorknob with both hands and pushed, pulled, twisted but nothing worked.
Fear began rising in her stomach, and the constant buzzing of the pipe was getting on her nerves more and more. Out of frustration, she started banging on the door, screaming until no air was left in her lungs. She quickly felt dizzy though, and let herself slid down, back against the door.
---------
Changmin kept running faster than he ever thought he could. His endless legs enabling him to reach his destination in no time.
His well trained senses definitely on alert, and the safety of the gun in his right hand, already taken off.
However, the tall man slowed down a couple of meters before arriving at the exact location. Knowing he was an open target inside this alley, he took extra precaution while moving closer to the utility room. But before opening the door, the icy feeling in his neck made him dodge the bullet that was coming straight at him from his left.
The bodyguard flattened himself on the ground and waited three seconds before retaliating in the same direction.
One shot, two shots echoed in the walls.
But still no one in sight.
---------
Changmin always knew Yoong Won wasn't trustworthy. Moreover, when the rumor of a mole in the service had emerged, he kept a close eye on him. Nonetheless, the guy was quite smart despite his rough appearance. Never once had he given the bodyguard any reason to doubt him until two weeks ago.
"....yeah yeah arasso....make sure it's there and i'll be a good boy"
The clean cut, purple haired guard had been on his phone for the past fifteen minutes and Changmin had been eavesdropping for about the same amount of time. Unfortunately, he couldn't get a hold of the entire conversation and the guy made sure to stay evasive. Suddenly Yoong Won hung up and was walking in the bodyguard's direction. The model looking boy swiftly retraced his steps, making sure his little snooping around would go unnotice by both the culprit and the security.
A week later, the same scene occured, but this time, Changmin had managed to bug the room the shorter guard was helding his conversation in.
"What the fuck! I told you last week everything was fine why'd you send another silly threat...."
"I fucking don't care from now on you're gonna do exactly what I tell you arasso?!"
"...no, no that's fine! I found another way to get it done!..."
"yeah you do that!" Yoong Won snapped before shutting his phone.
Changmin took the earphone out of his right ear, and pondered on what to do. He had no concrete evidence that his colleague had gone rogue. Moreover, he didn't know what the man's real plan were.
---------
Livia was dozzing off, weakening by the minute when she heard a faint sound (the bullet hitting the wall of her cage). The brunette opened her eyes and groggily stood up again.
She turned to face the door and worked on the doorknob once more. But the damn piece of metal still wouldn't budge. Tears started slowly coming down her cheeks, mixed of frustration and fear. The young girl banged against the door, softly at first, but continuously using more force. And suddenly, the door moved.
Well actually it shook, but this tiny movement gave her a rush of hope and she pounded on it more. This time looking around for something that could be of any help. In the darkness, where her green eyes had adjusted, she spotted the old, over used broom. Livia ran to grab it. Only using the metallic part at the end of the stick, she frantically worked on the door.
Changmin still flattened on the floor heard fainted knocks on the door he desperatly wanted to open. He knew from the girl's personnality, that Livia would be doing everything she could to get out. The bodyguard also knew that his ex-colleague must have prepared this weeks ago making sure both of them wouldn't come out of it alive.
Suddenly, the tall man only managed to curled up against the wall in a swift move when another bullet aimed at him from the other side this time.
"Damn it..." Changmin cursed, feeling trapped also. He reached for his back pocket and quickly pressed a few buttons, signaling the situation to his boss.
As soon as he pressed the "send" button, the gorgeous guy heard footsteps and a gun being armed. He turned his head just in time to see Yoong Won aiming at him a rifle in his hands. The shorter man seemed calm. The smirk had left his face.
"So what's it's gonna be Shim?"
"You tell me.." Changmin creased his eyes, expecting anything from this new found enemy.
"Well I'll give you this, having you out of the picture for good is the cherry on my cake"
There's was no chance in hell Changmin could dodge another bullet, being out in the open like he was. But suddenly when all hopes had fadded something unexpected got the two men off guards.
After fighting over it for what seemed like a day, Livia managed to crumpled the doorknob as well as the old door a bit. This enabled her to pull on it hard and finally getting it somewhat open. She reached out, extracting herself from her cage and gasping for air. She fell on her knees not realising she was right in the middle of a gun battle. Changmin now aiming at Yoong Won.
But the shorter man was quicker and more eager to keep his VIP pass close to him. He grabbed Livia's arm harshly, making her stand up, and kept her headlocked, the gun still aiming at Changmin. The bodyguard didn't budge.
"I suggest you stay put Shim"
Yoong Won felt uneasy in his current position and Changmin saw it. However, all the possibilities of desarming him always came with Livia being hurt.
He kept staring at the girl, angry at himself for getting her involved in this mess.
The green eyed girl stared back but her eyes were blank. She was feeling more and more dizzy, and the corrupt guard was pressing on her throat, making it hard for her to breathe. She knew she had brought this on herself. That irritated her and so, she began pulling hard on Yoong Won's arm. But that only made him tighten his hold, glancing at her for a split second.
"You won't be bothering me too long sweety"
Changmin creased his eyes
"What's your plan? Shooting us both? You know I'll get you first"
"Don't flatter yourself Shim!" and before the tall guy could reply, a bullet went straight inside his left arm.
Changmin wavered a bit, wincing at the pain, blood already oozing from the hole in his arm. Livia gasped. She pulled, scratched and finally bite the arm of her oppressor. YoongWon led out a yell and released his grip. The brunette fell to the floor and crawled towards Changmin. While doing so, she heard a gun being loaded and didn't think twice before jumping on her bodyguard.
Two shots were heard.
Yoong Won faltered, holding his chest, a wide red stain forming under his hand. He coughed blood twice, stumbled some more and finally fell down.
Changmin dropped his gun and quickly grabbed Livia's waist. She was half lying on him, her left arm resting on his shoulder and her head buried in his chest. Her unexpected action had given the bodyguard the opportunity to strike and he had aimed for his ex-colleague's heart right away.
"Hey! You ok?"
Pulling away from her a little, the handsome man held Livia's left arm, and cupped one of her cheeks, raising her head at the same time.
He froze when he saw the young girl's expression.
Her eyes were closed and her mouth slighty open. Lips already turning a light shade of blue. Changmin tightened his hold.
"Livia?..Livie?...hey! come on answer!"
He had a firm grip on her jaw and kept shaking her gently.
"Come on wake up! Livie! WAKE UP!"
She was still not moving, and when a few drops of blood began escaping her lips, Changmin suddenly saw it.
The second bullet had managed to hit his target.
The bodyguard led the girl's head rest on his shoulder while he pressed the open wound on her back, as hard as he could. He grabbed his cellphone wincing at the pain in his left arm.
"Boss! it's Shim! I need an ambulance ASAP!"
He then tossed his phone, and hugged Livia even more closely, resting his chin on top of her head.
"Hang on Livie! They're on their way ... You hear me? HANG ON!"
...................A month later.........................
With insanely long legs, wearing a white shirt and a pair of dark blue jeans, a devilishly attractive man was silently waiting for the elevator to stop. He stepped out of it, and quickly scanned the area. Pushing back his sun glasses on the bridge of his nose, Changmin went straight for the hospital room 512, where Livia had received treatments for about a month now after being shot.
The bodyguard still had a hard time believing he could have lost her on that day. But what seemed more unreal was how deep his feelings ran for her. Never, in his worst nightmares, had he envisonned falling for one of his client. On that same note, never had he imagined being saved by that same person!
*knock knock*
"Come in" greeted Livia, already up (even though she was supposed to rest for another week) and humming while stuffing a few things in a little bag.
"Hey, aren't you suppose to lay in bed?"
The brunette turned around and a huge smile spread on her face.
"....well the doc said I could take a few steps in the corridor .."
"So you figured you could sneak out for a walk instead" a smirk already forming on the handsome man's face.
"....well it's not like anyone would mind right?"
She approached him, a mischievous look on her face. Changmin took off his sunglasses and stared at her, smiling.
"you know you're not suppose to go out yet....Y.W's boss is still on the run..."
She grew closer. Puppy eyes and pouting lips on display, she stared back.
"Well then, there's only one way to make sure I'm safe..."
"And that would be?" the bodyguard chuckled.
Livia wriggled her finger to make him bent down a little until he was at reachable distance. She cupped his face and kissed him softly.
"You're coming with me!"
.....Fin......
