Chapter 11
GAH! I hate math! I stared at my math review like I could get it to spontaneously light itself on fire, but the little twerp didn’t. I had failed my stupid Math midterm, and my teacher was annoying enough to make me go all the way back to school during winter break to do a retake of the smelly exam. I hate math. How is knowing what an absolute value is going to come in handy in my everyday life? It WON’T! THAT’S HOW! My mom keeps saying how ‘lucky’ it was that the teacher didn’t mind paying the long distance charges to call us. Lucky my ass. Yunho and Changmin were supposed to be helping me, but the idiots I call my friends were stuck in an incredibly boring and stupid argument about how to solve this silly problem best. Who cares about that? I just want to go down to the convenience store and get a Reese’s. I love those peanut-butter cups. I wonder if it’d still be open at midnight.
“Yeah… no…” I nodded, then shook my head at whatever it was Changmin was saying. “I don’t get it.” Yunho groaned and slammed his head down on the coffee table. Min patted him sympathetically, and sighed. They didn’t need to get so pissed off, even if the test is tomorrow and I have failed to learn anything in the entire week we’ve been here.
“This is hopeless. HOPELESS!” Yunho cried out dramatically. “There’s something very wrong with you Jae.”
“Seriously. It’s not even hard! All those two stupid lines do is make the negative stuff positive.” Min explained again, but it was just like a big roaring in my ears.
“But… why?”
“That’s just the way it is! You put the fucking lines there and that’s what happens, okay?”
“I don’t appreciate your tone, Yun.” I huffed, and he made as if to rip his own hair out and tackled me to the ground. We wrestled each other around the table. He somehow managed to get on top of me, and pushed my shoulders down. “Oof! Get off me, you fat ass!” I laughed and shoved at him, until we tumbled over again.
“NO!”
“Guys this is no time to have a lovey-dovey moment!” Changmin groaned, somehow managing to grab Yunho and pull him off me mid-tumble. Changmin is so awesome. He grabbed me by the collar and dragged me back to my seat.
“We tried, Min. I give up.” Yunho grumbled and plopped his head down on my shoulder, and hugged my arm. “Jae is just math stupid.”
“I really am.”
“NO! We can’t give up Yun! I can’t do this on my own.” Min moaned desperately.
“You’re right, Min!” Yunho sat up we renewed determination, and picked up the pen that had rolled away while we had been fighting.
“You guys… This isn’t getting me anywhere.” I sighed, leaning my head on my hand. “Can’t you just tell me the answer and we can pretend I got the other part right?” I batted my eyelashes at both of them, and it seemed to work for about three seconds. They both blinked at me and blushed.
But then Changmin shook his head and shouted “NO! Gosh, Jae! You can’t just not do the important part! HOW WILL YOU LEARN, JAEJOONG?!? HOOOOOOOOWWW??!?” He flailed his arms theatrically.
“But… But Changmin… it’s so… difficult.” I sniffled dramatically. “My math deficient brain can’t process all this information.” I choked out.
Changmin looked at me pitifully. “Oh, Jae. I had no idea it was so hard for you!” He sobbed.
“I… I try not to show it.” I bit my lower lip and looked away.
“COME HERE!” Min hugged me, and we both sobbed dramatically on each other’s shoulders. “It’s… It’s going to be okay!”
Yunho grabbed both our heads and knocked them together. Min and I moaned in pain. “Stop being idiots. Jae, you need to get this or you’re going to fail AGAIN, and then you’ll end up in summer school.” He chastised me.
“I don’t wanna!” I puffed, crossing my arms over my chest and turning away from him unhappily.
He flicked my ear. “Come on, Jae! Concentrate.” He rubbed his knuckles against my head. “Look.” He grabbed my pencil and started scribbling stuff and explaining it to me. It wasn’t making a lot of sense, but I tried really hard to concentrate.
“No, no, no!” Changmin growled, stealing the pen out of Yunho’s still writing hand. “Don’t listen to him. You should do it this way.” Min was making even less sense. When did we learn how to do that? Do I really pay that little attention in Math class?
“Wait… I don’t get it.” I mumbled sadly. “Why do I square the X again?”
“He’s not going to get your way! It’s more advanced, and he’s already struggling with this thing.” Yunho shook his head superiorly. “So, just let me show him.” He grabbed the pen back, but Changmin refused to let go.
“That’s because I wasn’t done explaining.” He growled, and pulled on my pencil.
“You don’t need to, because your way SUCKS!” Yunho snarled, and tugged the damn thing back.
“BOTH OF YOU SHUT UP!” I screamed very effectively. My friends quieted down, and let go of the pencil. “This isn’t helping me at all!”
“Well, if Changmin let me explain the good method, we wouldn’t be in this situation!” Yunho yapped.
“Ugh. You are so stupid!” Changmin threw his arms in the air angrily. “Okay, let’s say that there’s a taxi.” He drew a top hat shape, and then put little circle wheels on the bottom. “And here’s the little doors, and the light. You got to have a windshield.” He added to the drawing, making a more intricate taxi cab. Then he drew puffs of smoke coming out from the exhaust. “And here’s the little man choking on the horrible pollution caused by the vehicle.” He drew a little stick man with a top hat covering his mouth and wrote “*cough*” next to him.
Changmin got smacked really hard in the back of the head. “Stop it with the picture and get on with it!” Yunho grumbled at him.
“Sorry… I got a little carried away there. Okay, so you…”
“Don’t draw him.”
“Right.” Min muttered unhappily, and pulled the pen away from the page. “You take the taxi and go from point A to point B. Point A is at…” I’ll spare you the incredibly boring and useless details of where the points are on the stupid smelly graph. I’m sure you’ve got lots better to do than learn Math. Ugh. “So, the distance will be positive.”
Changmin must have noticed the blank uncomprehending expression on my face, because he pushed me to the floor, grumbled something about going to the bathroom and stormed off.
“Don’t forget to wash your hands when you’re done.” I snickered, and received and angry glare from Min. He’s been unusually moody since Yunho told him he confessed to me. I don’t get why though. He’s just being a uselessly tall idiot.
Yunho wrapped an arm around my shoulders. “Okay, let me explain it to you, THE RIGHT WAY!” He shouted towards the bathroom door, and I swear I heard Changmin flip him off. “Let me just make myself comfortable.” He sat so close to me he was almost on my lap.
“Dude, you don’t have to sit so close!” I grumbled, and tried to shove him away.
“Got a problem with that?” He smirked, and I punched his arm. Yunho’s been like this since the morning after we got stupidly drunk. It’s not MY fault I thought he was just being overly friendly. I mean, come on! He was VERY vague about his feelings so you can’t really blame me for not reacting the ‘correct’ way when he barged in on me cooking breakfast the next morning.
I was just watching the eggs I’d made for breakfast cook themselves, in hopes that the huge throbbing headache gnawing at the back of my brain would go away already, because it was just such a bitch. I guess I have to suffer the consequences of my horrible binge drinking… I hate consequences. Yunho came out of nowhere, or at least I didn’t notice him come out of anywhere, because I was too engrossed by the beautiful eggs, and he hugged my waist from behind, burying his chin in my shoulder. “I’m making breakfast.” I informed him uselessly, because he could obviously see that I was making eggs. I had only made enough for me and Yunho. Knowing Chun, he’d probably be knocked out until noon.
“Mm…” Yunho mumbled burying his nose in my shoulder. “More like burning breakfast.” He sounded like he’d been run over by a truck, which is exactly how I felt.
“That too…” I sighed, and shut the stove off, sliding the slightly over cooked eggs into a plate. “You mind sharing a plate? I didn’t feel like making two pans, so I just put both of our eggs together.” I grumbled lazily.
“No… Of course not.” He smiled, and hugged me tighter. “I’ll make some coffee.” I nodded, and moved the plate to the table, while he started the coffee maker, and came to sit down next to me. “So… I was thinking…” He grinned sheepishly, and I handed him his fork. “When… When we get back to our apartment… um… maybe we could… I don’t know… like… go to a movie… or something.” He bit his lower lip and looked up at me shyly.
I shrugged and nodded. “Yeah, whatever.” I mumbled, swallowing a forkful of egg. “I wonder what movie the gang will want to watch.” I added, just to have something to say. My head was throbbing loudly, and a conversation wasn’t such a good idea.
“No… I meant just you and me.” Yunho pouted at me. “Ugh… do you have some aspirin somewhere?”
“Uh… I think… maybe… Mom keeps them… somewhere.” I grumbled. Talking hurts so much. The coffee maker dinged unnaturally loud making us both jump and groan. He went to fill us two mugs of hot caffeinated fluids. “Anyway… I’m sure Min, Junsu, Hangeng and Kim Bum would want to come along.” I pouted in a disgruntled fashion. “The girls too.”
Yunho came back with the coffee, looking at me funny. “But Jae… I meant we should go on a date.”
I laughed out loud. “Why would we go on a date?” The look on Yunho’s face shut me right up.
“We discussed this last night, didn’t we?” He screamed at me, then seemed to collect himself. “Unless you don’t remember… Did you forget what we talked about yesterday? Oh my God, you forgot!” He started panicking and got off the chair to pace in front of the table. “Crap… now I have to do it all over again, and it’s going to take so long and-”
“Yun… Relax.” I groaned. “I remember what happened yesterday… I was there.”
Yunho sighed in relief, and sat back down. “Okay. That’s good. Then you know.”
“Uh… Yeah… But what does THAT have to do with us going on a date.” I mumbled, flinging my fork around, and then getting a little bit distracted by it. Hihihi, forks are funny. Why didn’t I choose chopsticks? Whatever. I looked back up at Yunho, from my fork.
He blinked at me. “Because… I… told you I liked you… and… we made out on the floor… and you kissed me back…” He said uncertainly.
“Yeah… and?” I watched him expectantly. He squinted at me suspiciously, but said nothing. “We do that all the time don’t we? It was a friendship thing… right?” Yunho turned a slightly disturbing shade of angry orange. Oh God… I’m really scared now. I pushed my chair away from Yunho. “Hey… okay calm down, Yun. Murdering me is a bad idea.”
“YOU….YOU…YOU!!!” He shouted, pointing at me angrily, apparently at a loss for words. “I CAN’T BELIEVE YOU! Do you have ANY idea how hard it was for me to confess my feelings?!?” He turned purple, and let out an angry animalistic growl. “Oh my GOD! You are such a FUCKING idiot! What will it take to get through to you? Do I have to spell it out for you in an interpretive dance?”
“Okay… how about we take a deep breath?” I suggested, moving my chair further away. “Why are you so ticked off? What did I say?”
“You are such a stupid idiot, Jaejoong!” He shouted, slamming his fist angrily down on the table. “Listen closely, because this is the last time I’m going to say this. NOTHING, AND I MEAN NOTHING, I HAVE EVER DONE TO YOU WAS MEANT TO ‘DEEPEN OUR FRIENDSHIP’. YOU WANT TO KNOW WHY?!? BECAUSE I AM IN LOVE WITH YOU! I WANT TO KISS YOU, AND MAKE OUT WITH YOU, AND BEND YOU OVER THIS VERY TABLE AND FUCK YOU! SO YOU GET THAT THROUGH THAT BIG STUPID HEAD OF YOURS!” He pointed at me threateningly. “DID YOU GET THAT?!?” I nodded fearfully. “Good.”
There was a long silence, where I just stared at Yunho in fear. Then he dropped himself on his chair and started eating the eggs. “But… we can still be friends right?” I whispered cautiously.
He dropped his fork, and I cowered back into my chair. “You don’t get it do you?” He glared at me. Oh no… I thought I was going to die on that very day. “I don’t want to be just your friend, Jae.”
“Y… You… You mean like… best… friends?” I squeaked frightfully.
Yunho got up, and I fell off my chair. “No, Jae! I do NOT mean like best friends!” He stomped out of the kitchen, then came back in, and pointed at me. “Just you wait, Jae. Don’t you think that I’m giving up. I’m going to MAKE you fall in love with me! YOU’LL SEE!” He cackled evilly and sat back down at the table to eat with me. It was a very scary experience.
And now he’s sticking to me like angry Velcro. I don’t really hate it. Actually he’s incredibly warm and smells like freshly baked cookies, and it’s nice to have him so close. It sort of feels safe. It’s his intentions that throw me off. Maybe I don’t WANT to fall in love with him. Why is he making me? “I don’t get it.” I groaned, shoving my homework away and grinding my forehead in Yunho’s shoulder. “It’s stupid. It doesn’t make any sense. I hate it.”
Yunho laughed and hugged me closer. “It’s not that hard, Jae. You’re just not concentrating.”
“Obviously. I mean it’s almost midnight.” I huffed unhappily. “I just want to go to bed, and forget about everything. Stupid math, stupid midterms, stupid… EVERYTHING!”
“Okay. If you get this one, we’ll go down to the 24 hour convenience store, and I’ll personally buy you a Reese’s.” He grinned. I stared at him with wide grateful eyes. How did he know I really wanted a Reese’s?
“Really?” I said hopefully. I’m sure my eyes were shining and everything.
“Of course!”
“OKAY!” I shouted determinedly, and started scribbling on the stupid piece of paper.
“Do you know what formula to use?” Yunho mumbled sceptically.
“Obviously.” I huffed indignantly, and scribbled some more. I guess when you have some chocolate and peanut butter-y motivation, you can do ANYTHING. “So… I just have to carry the X here right?” I asked him.
“Yeah! Good job!” He smiled. He really looks good without his braces. His smile is all shiny and white and perfect. It makes me want to kiss him a little bit. I sighed.
“Stop distracting me.” I pushed his face away and concentrated on the equation. This isn’t so hard. I scribbled faster, already anticipating the peanut butter and chocolate cups. “Calculator.” I held my hand out to Yunho, and he gave me the square math machine. I crunched in the numbers. YES! This is pretty easy. I think I got the answer. I was just about to write it down, when Yunho kissed the side of my lips. I blinked in shock and looked at him.
“Sorry. You just look really cute when you’re concentrating.” He grinned sheepishly. “I bet you didn’t even notice your tongue was sticking out.”
I sighed and went back to the problem. Ah, my chest almost hurts, but in a good way. This feels weird. “There.” I gave him the sheet of paper, and grinned. “I’m right, right? I did good… right? I get chocolate, right?”
“Oh my God.” Yunho gasped staring at my work. “You… You actually got it right!”
“YES!!” I pumped my fist excitedly. Yunho was looking around the living room in fear. “What? What are you doing?”
“The world isn’t ending, is it?” He stuttered. “It’s the apocalypse isn’t it?”
“Shut up.” I punched his arm. “Come on! You promised to get me a Reese’s.” I pulled him up. “Let’s go!”
“Ugh… fine.” He followed me up.
Changmin came out of the bathroom as we were wearing our coats and about to leave. “Hey! Where are you two going?”
“Yunho promised he’d get me a Reese’s if I got the answer right. And I did.” I grinned proudly.
“It’s almost midnight! You two shouldn’t be going out to a stupid convenience store.” He grumbled angrily. “Plus, you’ll fail if you don’t get more practice! Your exams TOMORROW Jae.”
“How about you get that stick out your ass, and stop being such a whiny jerk?” Yunho suggested kindly, making me laugh. “We’re just going to the convenience store. It’s only half a block away.”
“I’m serious. You guys shouldn’t be going out now.” Changmin warned us ominously. “It’s dangerous.”
“Dude, who’s going to be lurking around convenience stores at midnight? Don’t you think people have better things to do than jump two guys going to buy chocolate?” I smirked, pulling my woolly hat over my ears. “Besides, even if they did, Jaeho would kick their asses!”
“You mean Yunjae will kick their asses.” Yunho scoffed.
“If I had meant Yunjae, I would have said Yunjae.” I glared at him.
Changmin refused to leave the house, so Yunho and I went down the steps alone, walking towards the convenience store. A light drizzle of snow fell over our heads. Luckily it wasn’t windy, so the snowflakes just floated down gracefully. “Waah… it’s so pretty out.” I grinned, sticking my tongue out to catch a snowflake.
“Mm…” Yunho mumbled and blew into his hands to keep them warm. I handed him one of my gloves, and put his naked hand in my pocket with mine. “What are you doing?” He laced his fingers with mine and squeezed gently.
“Keeping you warm, duh.” I scoffed, and pulled him along faster down the sidewalk. “Come on! Let’s get there and back quickly so you don’t freeze your ass off.”
“Aw, you care.” Yunho smirked, following me up the street. “Hey… Why won’t you go out with me?”
“Not this again.” I grumbled.
“Come on! I’m tall, I work out, I have a nice skin tone, I’m handsome, and I’m incredibly smart! You should consider yourself lucky to be the object of my affections.” He nodded in his usual modest manner.
“Oh, good sir, you are right. How foolish of me to not consider such a capable candidate for my love life.” I sighed dramatically.
“Exactly!” Yunho smirked. “So, date me already!”
“Yunho, I’m not gay.” I rolled my eyes.
“Don’t give me that tired old excuse.” He groaned, as we walked into the convenience store. “You kissed me back that time at your parents’. In fact, every time I’ve kissed you, you’ve kissed me back. So, there is no chance in hell that you’re not gay.”
The clerk behind the cash register shot us a glare. I cocked my eyebrow in a ‘you got a problem with me?’ way and he looked away quickly. HAH! My vampire skills are still top notch. I should sharpen them up for back to school. “That so does not mean I’m gay. If that were true, then Yoochun would be the gayest of us all, and he dates a different girl every week.”
“That just proves the fact that he’s gay. No straight guy dates that many girls. He’s probably just confused, and such. Therefore, you, my friend, are a homo.” Yunho laughed, picking up a Reese’s and a Kit-Kat from the chocolate counter. I shot him a glare, and he stuck his tongue out at me. “And more specifically, a homo for moi!” He smirked.
I punched him. “You make no sense and are stupid.” I huffed, making Yunho roll his eyes. “Besides, if we dated it would ruin our closeness.”
“How does dating me ruin our closeness? If anything it makes us closer.” He sighed, browsing through the chips.
“I have eight sisters, Yunho. And if I’ve learned anything in my years of being their diploma-less psychologist is that relationships with guys do not work.” I explained.
“What are you talking about? Your sister Hae Won is happily married. And what about your parents? They’ve been together for like… a long time.” Yunho retorted.
“Well, they’re exceptions. Do you know how many times Eun Hee, or Hae Jung came home sobbing, because of boy trouble? And what about Hana? She hasn’t dated a SINGLE guy that hasn’t cheated on her.” I told him as we walked to the cashier to pay for the food. “Not one!”
“You have watched WAY to many chick flicks for your own good.” Yunho shook his head, and I shrugged. “Oh, come on, Jae. You can’t decide your future based on your sisters’ love lives.” He grumbled. He paid for the chocolates, and we made our way out of the store with the huffy cashier. “Besides! You KNOW I wouldn’t do that to you! I’m not some stranger off the street trying to woo you.”
“But Yun… it just won’t work out okay? I don’t… I don’t like you in that way.” I stuttered out.
“Yes you do. You just don’t know it, because stupid Yoochun scrambled your brains.” He grumbled.
“You’re so modest.” I rolled my eyes. We walked out of the store, and Yunho threw his arm over my shoulder and pulled me closer to him. “You’re getting annoying.”
“You secretly like it a lot.” He grinned. I rolled my eyes. I’m not going to admit it, that’ll just give him more hope. He started to say something else.
“Kim Jaejoong!” Someone yelled from behind us, and I immediately turned around. I froze, eyes widening into saucers. Those… What… Huh? I blinked at the silhouette of a man smirking hideously at me. He threw away another person’s limp body, and stepped under one of the outdoor lights of the convenience store.
“Y… Yun… Yun…” I grabbed Yunho’s sleeve and tugged at it.
“What?” I pointed to the guy that had called me. Yunho’s eyes almost popped out of his skull. The man was standing under the lamp. His eyes were a very angry ‘I popped a vein’ red, and his open mouthed grin was dripping with what I could only describe as blood. AND HE HAD FANGS, LIKE OH MY GOD VAMPIRE FANGS! “Are those…?” The man took a step towards us, and five others like him came out of the shadows. “Jae… I think we should-”
“Run?” I suggested, already turning my body away in preparation.
“Yeah.”
We hauled ass out of there, running like our lives depended on it. Thank God, I’ve been working out, or else I would’ve been gasping like a fish after three painful steps. Jesus, I don’t want to die! Vampires are supposed to be mythical creatures for crying out loud! “Oh my God, Yun! Do you think… do you think they’re real?” I shouted, as I ran.
“I’m running away aren’t I?” He shouted back. “How did they know your name?”
“I DON’T KNOW! I JUST WANTED A REESE’S FOR CRYING OUT LOUD!”
“CALM DOWN!”
“HOW DO YOU WANT ME TO CALM DOWN WE’RE BEING CHASED BY VAMPIRES, YUN!”
“LET’S JUST GET TO THE APARTMENT!” He shouted back, and picked up the pace. I nodded, and sped up too.
We kept running for another ten minutes, before I realized we weren’t headed home at all. We were avidly running towards the jogging path that led to these stupid abandoned warehouses. “DAMMIT! WHY DID YOU MAKE US RUN THIS WAY?!?” Yunho screamed at me.
“ME?!? I WAS FOLLOWING YOU!” I huffed angrily.
“Oh, whatever! Are they still following us?” He asked me. I looked over my shoulder, and immediately wished I hadn’t. They were only about ten feet away from us. We were screwed.
“Oh my God Yun, we’re going to DIE!” I cried. “We’ll never see Min, or Chun, or anybody ever again!”
“You panicking is REALLY NOT HELPING!” He screamed at me.
“WELL WE’RE GOING TO DIE!” I shrieked.
“Okay, okay. Let’s just make it to the warehouses, okay? We’ll… We’ll hide there.” He said in a lower register.
“I think they can hear us, Yunho! THEY’RE FUCKING VAMPIRES!” I shouted.
“Just move your legs faster OKAY?!?” He screamed.
Ugh, I should have listened to Changmin. But come on, who creeps around convenience stores at midnight? Well, apparently REAL vampires have nothing better to do in the middle of the night than hang around a seven-eleven waiting for some poor sap to walk in and buy a freaking REESE’S! Why did that poor sap have to be me? At least, I’m with Yunho. If I were to die with anybody, I think I’d rather it be him. But I don’t want to be drained of my bodily fluids… at least not in a bad way!
We turned the corner, and skidded into the alley behind the first row of warehouses, and pressed our backs against the wall. “What do we do?” I asked Yunho, panting like crazy. He pressed his finger to his lip to shush me, and motioned for me to walk to the back of the alley. We slid sideways like crabs, trying to control our erratic breathing.
“Where did they go?”
“Spread out. The boss wants them alive, so nobody suddenly decide to snack on them.” Oh my god, they’re really vampires… and they want to snack on us! WHY?!? I bet we don’t really taste that good. Actually, Yunho doesn’t taste that bad… But I’ve never actually sucked his blood or anything, so saying that is pretty pointless.
“Do you hear something?”
We stood against the cold rusted door. There was no way it was going to open without a loud creaking sound, and if these people were real vampires we were as good as dead. I reached over and grabbed Yunho’s hand. Oh God, I totally regret not dating him when I had the chance. I bet he’d have been a good boyfriend. He squeezed my hand back, and I felt a little bit relieved. Oh no… I can see the stupid vampires’ shadow. They’re coming closer. We’re so screwed. This isn’t the way I wanted to die! Not that there’s a specific way I wanted to die, but this is definitely not one of them. I grabbed Yunho’s face and was about to kiss him good bye, when a big hand covered his mouth, and mine. We were pulled back into the warehouse. I bit back a scream.
Oh no, they’ve found us. The door closed quietly behind us, and a dark shadow approached us. I shivered, and scooched closer to Yunho. I don’t want to die. The figure approached us and flicked on a flashlight.
“I told you guys not to go out!” Changmin whispered at us angrily, shutting the door quietly behind us.
Holy crap! I let out a slightly relived breath. “How in hell did you get here?” I breathed. Yunho was still holding my hand and squeezing it tightly. “Yunho… you want to loosen your grip there.”
“Sorry.”
“Shut up! They’re going to hear you. They’re vampires, you know!” Min groaned at us. He looked up and around, and his ears seemed to twitch a little bit. “Okay… They don’t think you’re here. We’re okay for now.”
“Min… What’s going on?” Yunho asked him, in a very low voice.
“Ugh… Remember Jaejoong’s master plan of pretending to be a vampire?” We nodded. “And I got really mad?” I nodded and was about to make a comment when he added. “Let’s just say vampires really don’t like it when you do that.”
“Are you kidding me?” I groaned. “They’re chasing after me for pretending I was a vampire?” Changmin nodded. “How would they know about that in the first place?”
“Apparently you have a fan club that consists of every single girl who has ever read the book ‘Vampires Do It Better’.” Min sighed. “You should use the internet every once in a while. There’s like a cult dedicated to you.”
“I hate that book.” I grumbled. “Wait, how do YOU know about all this?”
“It’s a long story. I’ll tell you when and if we get out of here. Now please move to the back.”
We scuttled to the rear of the ware house. Yunho tripped halfway there, and fell on his face on the ground “Ow.” I bent over to help him up.
“Shh…” Changmin slapped his hand over our faces again, and listened intently. “Crap, they’re coming here.”
“I didn’t hear anything.” I muttered against Changmin’s hand.
“Shut up.” He grabbed both of us by the arms and pushed us between two towers of pallets. “Stay quiet, okay? Don’t even so much as breathe. Yunho make sure Jae shuts up.”
“What? Why does HE have to make sure that I shut up, and not the other way around?” I grumbled.
“Because you talk when you panic.” Changmin said, before shoving us further into the tiny space, before rushing away from us.
I sighed, and let my head drop on Yunho’s chest. My hands were pressed up against his chest, and there was literally NO room between our bodies. God, this place is tight. And it’s so hot here. Oh my God, I have to say something. I’m going to die if I don’t open my mouth. I started to say something, but a squeeze on my butt, made me stop. I looked up at Yunho, who was biting his lower lip. “What are you doing?” I mouthed.
“Sorry.” He mouthed back, trying to move his hands away from my butt. It was like an ass massage. I almost moaned. Who knew your butt could be so sensitive? “I’m stuck.”
“Stuck?!? Get your hands off my ass!” I replied angrily. He shushed me quietly, and moved closer to me -although how THAT was possible I’m not sure- to try to pull his hands out from under my ass. He winced when his hands scraped against the wooden pallets. He shook his head.
“Sorry. I can’t do it.” He grinned sheepishly, and squeezed my butt again.
I was about to say something when Changmin started talking “GUYS! Hey! What’s up?” Changmin’s voice wafted to us from wherever he was standing.
“Well, well, well, if it isn’t the favourite half-breed. Aren’t you supposed to be with your little human friends?” A somewhat familiar voice said. Where had I heard that voice before?
“Yeah, I decided to help out. They sort of bailed on me.” I could hear Min shrug. “You don’t mind do you?”
“Whatever…” Another stranger grumbled. “You half-breeds are always doing what you want. Did you check this place out?”
Yunho’s hands moved against my butt again, and I bit back a squeak. I looked up into Yunho’s eyes. “I told you to stop that dammit!”
“Come ON! When am I ever going to get a chance like this again?” He pouted.
“When I chop off your hands you won’t ever get a chance again.” I growled in a low voice. He scoffed, and squeezed my ass really tightly. “HEY!” I mouthed. “What are you doing?”
He leaned his head closer to mine so that his breath tickled my ear. “I should get my fill now, don’t you think?” He whispered in a low husky tone.
“Why you-” I started to say, but Yunho pressed his cheek against my lips to shut me up. I guess his hands really are stuck under my ass. He shushed me quietly and we listened to the vampires moving around the warehouse.
“I’ve looked around already.” Changmin’s voice grinned. “It’s really QUIET IN HERE.” He emphasized, probably for us.
“Heechul, I think the half-breed’s right.” A strange voice said.
“I have a name you know.” Min’s voice started fading, and the footsteps did too.
I relaxed a little bit. Yunho turned his head to face me again, and his lips brushed against mine. His eyes widened, and then hooded over. I started to feel really tingly everywhere, and I could feel my eyes close slowly too. Yunho’s breathing was a little heavier than usual, and I don’t know if it was the lack of lighting or whatever, but his eyes were almost completely black. It’s… Crap… it’s kind of sexy. “Yun…” I mouthed, and my mouth almost moved against his. Did he always have that mole on his upper lip?
“Yeah?” His eyes were half-closed, and staring at my lips.
“Nothing.” Yunho’s lips parted slightly. His face was so close I could feel his breath against my lips, and I felt my whole body itch in anticipation, but he didn’t move any closer. What is he waiting for, the messiah? Come ooon… just a little bit closer… Damn it. I pushed myself up a bit, and pressed my lips against his. FINALLY! Geez, you want something done right, you’ve got to do it yourself.
Yunho’s hands squeezed my bum, but I didn’t mind this time. He pulled me somehow closer, sliding his tongue and then his teeth against my bottom lip. He forced my mouth open, and we made out pretty passionately. I slid my hands up from his chest and buried them in his hair, changing the angle of his face so I could taste him further. His mouth is so warm and wet. Yunho squeezed my butt again, this time more roughly, not that I was really complaining. I cupped the right side of his face and pulled him closer still. This is so much better than when I was drunk, everything is much clearer… and quite frankly better tasting. He pulled back after a while, and we were both breathing heavily against each other. “Woah…” Yunho breathed. “That was… soooo much better than when we were drunk.” Can he read minds? Like EDWARD?!?!? … nah.
“Please tell me that’s not what I think it is against my thigh.” I mumbled, pressing my forehead against his chin.
“Sorry…” He whispered, and kissed the top of my head. “You’re as turned on as I am, though…” He smirked, tilting my head up. “You taste perfect.”
“You make no sense.” I smirked, and we were kissing again.
“Didn’t I tell you two to be quiet?” Changmin interrupted us, and we pulled away slowly. “Aw great. Just great. I’m happy this near-death situation has helped both of you bond. Jerks.” He yelled. “You couldn’t wait until I came back?”
“Judging by the volume of your voice, I’m going to assume we’re safe.” Min nodded. Yunho and I struggled to get out of our tight squeeze. “Why did you shove us in here? It’s too small.” I heard my jacket rip, and noticed a huge slit on the back. Great. Now I have to ask my parents to buy me a new jacket. I stumbled out first, followed closely by Yunho. The backs of his hands were scraped roughly, and bleeding. Oh… I looked away from the blood, trying to control my gag reflex. “Are you okay?” I managed to choke out. Please don’t let me faint, please dear God don’t let me faint.
“I’m fine.” He smiled at me, then turned to glare at Changmin. “Maybe you can explain to us what the hell just happened.”
Changmin groaned, and sat on the floor, pouting like an overgrown child. “You jerwads. This is all your fault! I was FINALLY going to have a normal high school experience, with almost normal friends, and you had to go and decide to pretend to be a vampire and be chased down by my coven.”
“That just confuses me even more.” I groaned, and then caught a glimpse of Yunho’s hands and looked away.
“Let’s go back to your place, and I’ll explain everything I promise.” Min got up and dusted himself off.
“Good idea. I still need to study for the math thing.” I grumbled. We followed Changmin out of the warehouses. It was much colder than earlier, but I realized it was mostly because of the giant rip in my jacket. Ugh, I hope I don’t catch a cold.

Chapter 11
GAH! I hate math! I stared at my math review like I could get it to spontaneously light itself on fire, but the little twerp didn’t. I had failed my stupid Math midterm, and my teacher was annoying enough to make me go all the way back to school during winter break to do a retake of the smelly exam. I hate math. How is knowing what an absolute value is going to come in handy in my everyday life? It WON’T! THAT’S HOW! My mom keeps saying how ‘lucky’ it was that the teacher didn’t mind paying the long distance charges to call us. Lucky my ass. Yunho and Changmin were supposed to be helping me, but the idiots I call my friends were stuck in an incredibly boring and stupid argument about how to solve this silly problem best. Who cares about that? I just want to go down to the convenience store and get a Reese’s. I love those peanut-butter cups. I wonder if it’d still be open at midnight.
“Yeah… no…” I nodded, then shook my head at whatever it was Changmin was saying. “I don’t get it.” Yunho groaned and slammed his head down on the coffee table. Min patted him sympathetically, and sighed. They didn’t need to get so pissed off, even if the test is tomorrow and I have failed to learn anything in the entire week we’ve been here.
“This is hopeless. HOPELESS!” Yunho cried out dramatically. “There’s something very wrong with you Jae.”
“Seriously. It’s not even hard! All those two stupid lines do is make the negative stuff positive.” Min explained again, but it was just like a big roaring in my ears.
“But… why?”
“That’s just the way it is! You put the fucking lines there and that’s what happens, okay?”
“I don’t appreciate your tone, Yun.” I huffed, and he made as if to rip his own hair out and tackled me to the ground. We wrestled each other around the table. He somehow managed to get on top of me, and pushed my shoulders down. “Oof! Get off me, you fat ass!” I laughed and shoved at him, until we tumbled over again.
“NO!”
“Guys this is no time to have a lovey-dovey moment!” Changmin groaned, somehow managing to grab Yunho and pull him off me mid-tumble. Changmin is so awesome. He grabbed me by the collar and dragged me back to my seat.
“We tried, Min. I give up.” Yunho grumbled and plopped his head down on my shoulder, and hugged my arm. “Jae is just math stupid.”
“I really am.”
“NO! We can’t give up Yun! I can’t do this on my own.” Min moaned desperately.
“You’re right, Min!” Yunho sat up we renewed determination, and picked up the pen that had rolled away while we had been fighting.
“You guys… This isn’t getting me anywhere.” I sighed, leaning my head on my hand. “Can’t you just tell me the answer and we can pretend I got the other part right?” I batted my eyelashes at both of them, and it seemed to work for about three seconds. They both blinked at me and blushed.
But then Changmin shook his head and shouted “NO! Gosh, Jae! You can’t just not do the important part! HOW WILL YOU LEARN, JAEJOONG?!? HOOOOOOOOWWW??!?” He flailed his arms theatrically.
“But… But Changmin… it’s so… difficult.” I sniffled dramatically. “My math deficient brain can’t process all this information.” I choked out.
Changmin looked at me pitifully. “Oh, Jae. I had no idea it was so hard for you!” He sobbed.
“I… I try not to show it.” I bit my lower lip and looked away.
“COME HERE!” Min hugged me, and we both sobbed dramatically on each other’s shoulders. “It’s… It’s going to be okay!”
Yunho grabbed both our heads and knocked them together. Min and I moaned in pain. “Stop being idiots. Jae, you need to get this or you’re going to fail AGAIN, and then you’ll end up in summer school.” He chastised me.
“I don’t wanna!” I puffed, crossing my arms over my chest and turning away from him unhappily.
He flicked my ear. “Come on, Jae! Concentrate.” He rubbed his knuckles against my head. “Look.” He grabbed my pencil and started scribbling stuff and explaining it to me. It wasn’t making a lot of sense, but I tried really hard to concentrate.
“No, no, no!” Changmin growled, stealing the pen out of Yunho’s still writing hand. “Don’t listen to him. You should do it this way.” Min was making even less sense. When did we learn how to do that? Do I really pay that little attention in Math class?
“Wait… I don’t get it.” I mumbled sadly. “Why do I square the X again?”
“He’s not going to get your way! It’s more advanced, and he’s already struggling with this thing.” Yunho shook his head superiorly. “So, just let me show him.” He grabbed the pen back, but Changmin refused to let go.
“That’s because I wasn’t done explaining.” He growled, and pulled on my pencil.
“You don’t need to, because your way SUCKS!” Yunho snarled, and tugged the damn thing back.
“BOTH OF YOU SHUT UP!” I screamed very effectively. My friends quieted down, and let go of the pencil. “This isn’t helping me at all!”
“Well, if Changmin let me explain the good method, we wouldn’t be in this situation!” Yunho yapped.
“Ugh. You are so stupid!” Changmin threw his arms in the air angrily. “Okay, let’s say that there’s a taxi.” He drew a top hat shape, and then put little circle wheels on the bottom. “And here’s the little doors, and the light. You got to have a windshield.” He added to the drawing, making a more intricate taxi cab. Then he drew puffs of smoke coming out from the exhaust. “And here’s the little man choking on the horrible pollution caused by the vehicle.” He drew a little stick man with a top hat covering his mouth and wrote “*cough*” next to him.
Changmin got smacked really hard in the back of the head. “Stop it with the picture and get on with it!” Yunho grumbled at him.
“Sorry… I got a little carried away there. Okay, so you…”
“Don’t draw him.”
“Right.” Min muttered unhappily, and pulled the pen away from the page. “You take the taxi and go from point A to point B. Point A is at…” I’ll spare you the incredibly boring and useless details of where the points are on the stupid smelly graph. I’m sure you’ve got lots better to do than learn Math. Ugh. “So, the distance will be positive.”
Changmin must have noticed the blank uncomprehending expression on my face, because he pushed me to the floor, grumbled something about going to the bathroom and stormed off.
“Don’t forget to wash your hands when you’re done.” I snickered, and received and angry glare from Min. He’s been unusually moody since Yunho told him he confessed to me. I don’t get why though. He’s just being a uselessly tall idiot.
Yunho wrapped an arm around my shoulders. “Okay, let me explain it to you, THE RIGHT WAY!” He shouted towards the bathroom door, and I swear I heard Changmin flip him off. “Let me just make myself comfortable.” He sat so close to me he was almost on my lap.
“Dude, you don’t have to sit so close!” I grumbled, and tried to shove him away.
“Got a problem with that?” He smirked, and I punched his arm. Yunho’s been like this since the morning after we got stupidly drunk. It’s not MY fault I thought he was just being overly friendly. I mean, come on! He was VERY vague about his feelings so you can’t really blame me for not reacting the ‘correct’ way when he barged in on me cooking breakfast the next morning.
I was just watching the eggs I’d made for breakfast cook themselves, in hopes that the huge throbbing headache gnawing at the back of my brain would go away already, because it was just such a bitch. I guess I have to suffer the consequences of my horrible binge drinking… I hate consequences. Yunho came out of nowhere, or at least I didn’t notice him come out of anywhere, because I was too engrossed by the beautiful eggs, and he hugged my waist from behind, burying his chin in my shoulder. “I’m making breakfast.” I informed him uselessly, because he could obviously see that I was making eggs. I had only made enough for me and Yunho. Knowing Chun, he’d probably be knocked out until noon.
“Mm…” Yunho mumbled burying his nose in my shoulder. “More like burning breakfast.” He sounded like he’d been run over by a truck, which is exactly how I felt.
“That too…” I sighed, and shut the stove off, sliding the slightly over cooked eggs into a plate. “You mind sharing a plate? I didn’t feel like making two pans, so I just put both of our eggs together.” I grumbled lazily.
“No… Of course not.” He smiled, and hugged me tighter. “I’ll make some coffee.” I nodded, and moved the plate to the table, while he started the coffee maker, and came to sit down next to me. “So… I was thinking…” He grinned sheepishly, and I handed him his fork. “When… When we get back to our apartment… um… maybe we could… I don’t know… like… go to a movie… or something.” He bit his lower lip and looked up at me shyly.
I shrugged and nodded. “Yeah, whatever.” I mumbled, swallowing a forkful of egg. “I wonder what movie the gang will want to watch.” I added, just to have something to say. My head was throbbing loudly, and a conversation wasn’t such a good idea.
“No… I meant just you and me.” Yunho pouted at me. “Ugh… do you have some aspirin somewhere?”
“Uh… I think… maybe… Mom keeps them… somewhere.” I grumbled. Talking hurts so much. The coffee maker dinged unnaturally loud making us both jump and groan. He went to fill us two mugs of hot caffeinated fluids. “Anyway… I’m sure Min, Junsu, Hangeng and Kim Bum would want to come along.” I pouted in a disgruntled fashion. “The girls too.”
Yunho came back with the coffee, looking at me funny. “But Jae… I meant we should go on a date.”
I laughed out loud. “Why would we go on a date?” The look on Yunho’s face shut me right up.
“We discussed this last night, didn’t we?” He screamed at me, then seemed to collect himself. “Unless you don’t remember… Did you forget what we talked about yesterday? Oh my God, you forgot!” He started panicking and got off the chair to pace in front of the table. “Crap… now I have to do it all over again, and it’s going to take so long and-”
“Yun… Relax.” I groaned. “I remember what happened yesterday… I was there.”
Yunho sighed in relief, and sat back down. “Okay. That’s good. Then you know.”
“Uh… Yeah… But what does THAT have to do with us going on a date.” I mumbled, flinging my fork around, and then getting a little bit distracted by it. Hihihi, forks are funny. Why didn’t I choose chopsticks? Whatever. I looked back up at Yunho, from my fork.
He blinked at me. “Because… I… told you I liked you… and… we made out on the floor… and you kissed me back…” He said uncertainly.
“Yeah… and?” I watched him expectantly. He squinted at me suspiciously, but said nothing. “We do that all the time don’t we? It was a friendship thing… right?” Yunho turned a slightly disturbing shade of angry orange. Oh God… I’m really scared now. I pushed my chair away from Yunho. “Hey… okay calm down, Yun. Murdering me is a bad idea.”
“YOU….YOU…YOU!!!” He shouted, pointing at me angrily, apparently at a loss for words. “I CAN’T BELIEVE YOU! Do you have ANY idea how hard it was for me to confess my feelings?!?” He turned purple, and let out an angry animalistic growl. “Oh my GOD! You are such a FUCKING idiot! What will it take to get through to you? Do I have to spell it out for you in an interpretive dance?”
“Okay… how about we take a deep breath?” I suggested, moving my chair further away. “Why are you so ticked off? What did I say?”
“You are such a stupid idiot, Jaejoong!” He shouted, slamming his fist angrily down on the table. “Listen closely, because this is the last time I’m going to say this. NOTHING, AND I MEAN NOTHING, I HAVE EVER DONE TO YOU WAS MEANT TO ‘DEEPEN OUR FRIENDSHIP’. YOU WANT TO KNOW WHY?!? BECAUSE I AM IN LOVE WITH YOU! I WANT TO KISS YOU, AND MAKE OUT WITH YOU, AND BEND YOU OVER THIS VERY TABLE AND FUCK YOU! SO YOU GET THAT THROUGH THAT BIG STUPID HEAD OF YOURS!” He pointed at me threateningly. “DID YOU GET THAT?!?” I nodded fearfully. “Good.”
There was a long silence, where I just stared at Yunho in fear. Then he dropped himself on his chair and started eating the eggs. “But… we can still be friends right?” I whispered cautiously.
He dropped his fork, and I cowered back into my chair. “You don’t get it do you?” He glared at me. Oh no… I thought I was going to die on that very day. “I don’t want to be just your friend, Jae.”
“Y… You… You mean like… best… friends?” I squeaked frightfully.
Yunho got up, and I fell off my chair. “No, Jae! I do NOT mean like best friends!” He stomped out of the kitchen, then came back in, and pointed at me. “Just you wait, Jae. Don’t you think that I’m giving up. I’m going to MAKE you fall in love with me! YOU’LL SEE!” He cackled evilly and sat back down at the table to eat with me. It was a very scary experience.
And now he’s sticking to me like angry Velcro. I don’t really hate it. Actually he’s incredibly warm and smells like freshly baked cookies, and it’s nice to have him so close. It sort of feels safe. It’s his intentions that throw me off. Maybe I don’t WANT to fall in love with him. Why is he making me? “I don’t get it.” I groaned, shoving my homework away and grinding my forehead in Yunho’s shoulder. “It’s stupid. It doesn’t make any sense. I hate it.”
Yunho laughed and hugged me closer. “It’s not that hard, Jae. You’re just not concentrating.”
“Obviously. I mean it’s almost midnight.” I huffed unhappily. “I just want to go to bed, and forget about everything. Stupid math, stupid midterms, stupid… EVERYTHING!”
“Okay. If you get this one, we’ll go down to the 24 hour convenience store, and I’ll personally buy you a Reese’s.” He grinned. I stared at him with wide grateful eyes. How did he know I really wanted a Reese’s?
“Really?” I said hopefully. I’m sure my eyes were shining and everything.
“Of course!”
“OKAY!” I shouted determinedly, and started scribbling on the stupid piece of paper.
“Do you know what formula to use?” Yunho mumbled sceptically.
“Obviously.” I huffed indignantly, and scribbled some more. I guess when you have some chocolate and peanut butter-y motivation, you can do ANYTHING. “So… I just have to carry the X here right?” I asked him.
“Yeah! Good job!” He smiled. He really looks good without his braces. His smile is all shiny and white and perfect. It makes me want to kiss him a little bit. I sighed.
“Stop distracting me.” I pushed his face away and concentrated on the equation. This isn’t so hard. I scribbled faster, already anticipating the peanut butter and chocolate cups. “Calculator.” I held my hand out to Yunho, and he gave me the square math machine. I crunched in the numbers. YES! This is pretty easy. I think I got the answer. I was just about to write it down, when Yunho kissed the side of my lips. I blinked in shock and looked at him.
“Sorry. You just look really cute when you’re concentrating.” He grinned sheepishly. “I bet you didn’t even notice your tongue was sticking out.”
I sighed and went back to the problem. Ah, my chest almost hurts, but in a good way. This feels weird. “There.” I gave him the sheet of paper, and grinned. “I’m right, right? I did good… right? I get chocolate, right?”
“Oh my God.” Yunho gasped staring at my work. “You… You actually got it right!”
“YES!!” I pumped my fist excitedly. Yunho was looking around the living room in fear. “What? What are you doing?”
“The world isn’t ending, is it?” He stuttered. “It’s the apocalypse isn’t it?”
“Shut up.” I punched his arm. “Come on! You promised to get me a Reese’s.” I pulled him up. “Let’s go!”
“Ugh… fine.” He followed me up.
Changmin came out of the bathroom as we were wearing our coats and about to leave. “Hey! Where are you two going?”
“Yunho promised he’d get me a Reese’s if I got the answer right. And I did.” I grinned proudly.
“It’s almost midnight! You two shouldn’t be going out to a stupid convenience store.” He grumbled angrily. “Plus, you’ll fail if you don’t get more practice! Your exams TOMORROW Jae.”
“How about you get that stick out your ass, and stop being such a whiny jerk?” Yunho suggested kindly, making me laugh. “We’re just going to the convenience store. It’s only half a block away.”
“I’m serious. You guys shouldn’t be going out now.” Changmin warned us ominously. “It’s dangerous.”
“Dude, who’s going to be lurking around convenience stores at midnight? Don’t you think people have better things to do than jump two guys going to buy chocolate?” I smirked, pulling my woolly hat over my ears. “Besides, even if they did, Jaeho would kick their asses!”
“You mean Yunjae will kick their asses.” Yunho scoffed.
“If I had meant Yunjae, I would have said Yunjae.” I glared at him.
Changmin refused to leave the house, so Yunho and I went down the steps alone, walking towards the convenience store. A light drizzle of snow fell over our heads. Luckily it wasn’t windy, so the snowflakes just floated down gracefully. “Waah… it’s so pretty out.” I grinned, sticking my tongue out to catch a snowflake.
“Mm…” Yunho mumbled and blew into his hands to keep them warm. I handed him one of my gloves, and put his naked hand in my pocket with mine. “What are you doing?” He laced his fingers with mine and squeezed gently.
“Keeping you warm, duh.” I scoffed, and pulled him along faster down the sidewalk. “Come on! Let’s get there and back quickly so you don’t freeze your ass off.”
“Aw, you care.” Yunho smirked, following me up the street. “Hey… Why won’t you go out with me?”
“Not this again.” I grumbled.
“Come on! I’m tall, I work out, I have a nice skin tone, I’m handsome, and I’m incredibly smart! You should consider yourself lucky to be the object of my affections.” He nodded in his usual modest manner.
“Oh, good sir, you are right. How foolish of me to not consider such a capable candidate for my love life.” I sighed dramatically.
“Exactly!” Yunho smirked. “So, date me already!”
“Yunho, I’m not gay.” I rolled my eyes.
“Don’t give me that tired old excuse.” He groaned, as we walked into the convenience store. “You kissed me back that time at your parents’. In fact, every time I’ve kissed you, you’ve kissed me back. So, there is no chance in hell that you’re not gay.”
The clerk behind the cash register shot us a glare. I cocked my eyebrow in a ‘you got a problem with me?’ way and he looked away quickly. HAH! My vampire skills are still top notch. I should sharpen them up for back to school. “That so does not mean I’m gay. If that were true, then Yoochun would be the gayest of us all, and he dates a different girl every week.”
“That just proves the fact that he’s gay. No straight guy dates that many girls. He’s probably just confused, and such. Therefore, you, my friend, are a homo.” Yunho laughed, picking up a Reese’s and a Kit-Kat from the chocolate counter. I shot him a glare, and he stuck his tongue out at me. “And more specifically, a homo for moi!” He smirked.
I punched him. “You make no sense and are stupid.” I huffed, making Yunho roll his eyes. “Besides, if we dated it would ruin our closeness.”
“How does dating me ruin our closeness? If anything it makes us closer.” He sighed, browsing through the chips.
“I have eight sisters, Yunho. And if I’ve learned anything in my years of being their diploma-less psychologist is that relationships with guys do not work.” I explained.
“What are you talking about? Your sister Hae Won is happily married. And what about your parents? They’ve been together for like… a long time.” Yunho retorted.
“Well, they’re exceptions. Do you know how many times Eun Hee, or Hae Jung came home sobbing, because of boy trouble? And what about Hana? She hasn’t dated a SINGLE guy that hasn’t cheated on her.” I told him as we walked to the cashier to pay for the food. “Not one!”
“You have watched WAY to many chick flicks for your own good.” Yunho shook his head, and I shrugged. “Oh, come on, Jae. You can’t decide your future based on your sisters’ love lives.” He grumbled. He paid for the chocolates, and we made our way out of the store with the huffy cashier. “Besides! You KNOW I wouldn’t do that to you! I’m not some stranger off the street trying to woo you.”
“But Yun… it just won’t work out okay? I don’t… I don’t like you in that way.” I stuttered out.
“Yes you do. You just don’t know it, because stupid Yoochun scrambled your brains.” He grumbled.
“You’re so modest.” I rolled my eyes. We walked out of the store, and Yunho threw his arm over my shoulder and pulled me closer to him. “You’re getting annoying.”
“You secretly like it a lot.” He grinned. I rolled my eyes. I’m not going to admit it, that’ll just give him more hope. He started to say something else.
“Kim Jaejoong!” Someone yelled from behind us, and I immediately turned around. I froze, eyes widening into saucers. Those… What… Huh? I blinked at the silhouette of a man smirking hideously at me. He threw away another person’s limp body, and stepped under one of the outdoor lights of the convenience store.
“Y… Yun… Yun…” I grabbed Yunho’s sleeve and tugged at it.
“What?” I pointed to the guy that had called me. Yunho’s eyes almost popped out of his skull. The man was standing under the lamp. His eyes were a very angry ‘I popped a vein’ red, and his open mouthed grin was dripping with what I could only describe as blood. AND HE HAD FANGS, LIKE OH MY GOD VAMPIRE FANGS! “Are those…?” The man took a step towards us, and five others like him came out of the shadows. “Jae… I think we should-”
“Run?” I suggested, already turning my body away in preparation.
“Yeah.”
We hauled ass out of there, running like our lives depended on it. Thank God, I’ve been working out, or else I would’ve been gasping like a fish after three painful steps. Jesus, I don’t want to die! Vampires are supposed to be mythical creatures for crying out loud! “Oh my God, Yun! Do you think… do you think they’re real?” I shouted, as I ran.
“I’m running away aren’t I?” He shouted back. “How did they know your name?”
“I DON’T KNOW! I JUST WANTED A REESE’S FOR CRYING OUT LOUD!”
“CALM DOWN!”
“HOW DO YOU WANT ME TO CALM DOWN WE’RE BEING CHASED BY VAMPIRES, YUN!”
“LET’S JUST GET TO THE APARTMENT!” He shouted back, and picked up the pace. I nodded, and sped up too.
We kept running for another ten minutes, before I realized we weren’t headed home at all. We were avidly running towards the jogging path that led to these stupid abandoned warehouses. “DAMMIT! WHY DID YOU MAKE US RUN THIS WAY?!?” Yunho screamed at me.
“ME?!? I WAS FOLLOWING YOU!” I huffed angrily.
“Oh, whatever! Are they still following us?” He asked me. I looked over my shoulder, and immediately wished I hadn’t. They were only about ten feet away from us. We were screwed.
“Oh my God Yun, we’re going to DIE!” I cried. “We’ll never see Min, or Chun, or anybody ever again!”
“You panicking is REALLY NOT HELPING!” He screamed at me.
“WELL WE’RE GOING TO DIE!” I shrieked.
“Okay, okay. Let’s just make it to the warehouses, okay? We’ll… We’ll hide there.” He said in a lower register.
“I think they can hear us, Yunho! THEY’RE FUCKING VAMPIRES!” I shouted.
“Just move your legs faster OKAY?!?” He screamed.
Ugh, I should have listened to Changmin. But come on, who creeps around convenience stores at midnight? Well, apparently REAL vampires have nothing better to do in the middle of the night than hang around a seven-eleven waiting for some poor sap to walk in and buy a freaking REESE’S! Why did that poor sap have to be me? At least, I’m with Yunho. If I were to die with anybody, I think I’d rather it be him. But I don’t want to be drained of my bodily fluids… at least not in a bad way!
We turned the corner, and skidded into the alley behind the first row of warehouses, and pressed our backs against the wall. “What do we do?” I asked Yunho, panting like crazy. He pressed his finger to his lip to shush me, and motioned for me to walk to the back of the alley. We slid sideways like crabs, trying to control our erratic breathing.
“Where did they go?”
“Spread out. The boss wants them alive, so nobody suddenly decide to snack on them.” Oh my god, they’re really vampires… and they want to snack on us! WHY?!? I bet we don’t really taste that good. Actually, Yunho doesn’t taste that bad… But I’ve never actually sucked his blood or anything, so saying that is pretty pointless.
“Do you hear something?”
We stood against the cold rusted door. There was no way it was going to open without a loud creaking sound, and if these people were real vampires we were as good as dead. I reached over and grabbed Yunho’s hand. Oh God, I totally regret not dating him when I had the chance. I bet he’d have been a good boyfriend. He squeezed my hand back, and I felt a little bit relieved. Oh no… I can see the stupid vampires’ shadow. They’re coming closer. We’re so screwed. This isn’t the way I wanted to die! Not that there’s a specific way I wanted to die, but this is definitely not one of them. I grabbed Yunho’s face and was about to kiss him good bye, when a big hand covered his mouth, and mine. We were pulled back into the warehouse. I bit back a scream.
Oh no, they’ve found us. The door closed quietly behind us, and a dark shadow approached us. I shivered, and scooched closer to Yunho. I don’t want to die. The figure approached us and flicked on a flashlight.
“I told you guys not to go out!” Changmin whispered at us angrily, shutting the door quietly behind us.
Holy crap! I let out a slightly relived breath. “How in hell did you get here?” I breathed. Yunho was still holding my hand and squeezing it tightly. “Yunho… you want to loosen your grip there.”
“Sorry.”
“Shut up! They’re going to hear you. They’re vampires, you know!” Min groaned at us. He looked up and around, and his ears seemed to twitch a little bit. “Okay… They don’t think you’re here. We’re okay for now.”
“Min… What’s going on?” Yunho asked him, in a very low voice.
“Ugh… Remember Jaejoong’s master plan of pretending to be a vampire?” We nodded. “And I got really mad?” I nodded and was about to make a comment when he added. “Let’s just say vampires really don’t like it when you do that.”
“Are you kidding me?” I groaned. “They’re chasing after me for pretending I was a vampire?” Changmin nodded. “How would they know about that in the first place?”
“Apparently you have a fan club that consists of every single girl who has ever read the book ‘Vampires Do It Better’.” Min sighed. “You should use the internet every once in a while. There’s like a cult dedicated to you.”
“I hate that book.” I grumbled. “Wait, how do YOU know about all this?”
“It’s a long story. I’ll tell you when and if we get out of here. Now please move to the back.”
We scuttled to the rear of the ware house. Yunho tripped halfway there, and fell on his face on the ground “Ow.” I bent over to help him up.
“Shh…” Changmin slapped his hand over our faces again, and listened intently. “Crap, they’re coming here.”
“I didn’t hear anything.” I muttered against Changmin’s hand.
“Shut up.” He grabbed both of us by the arms and pushed us between two towers of pallets. “Stay quiet, okay? Don’t even so much as breathe. Yunho make sure Jae shuts up.”
“What? Why does HE have to make sure that I shut up, and not the other way around?” I grumbled.
“Because you talk when you panic.” Changmin said, before shoving us further into the tiny space, before rushing away from us.
I sighed, and let my head drop on Yunho’s chest. My hands were pressed up against his chest, and there was literally NO room between our bodies. God, this place is tight. And it’s so hot here. Oh my God, I have to say something. I’m going to die if I don’t open my mouth. I started to say something, but a squeeze on my butt, made me stop. I looked up at Yunho, who was biting his lower lip. “What are you doing?” I mouthed.
“Sorry.” He mouthed back, trying to move his hands away from my butt. It was like an ass massage. I almost moaned. Who knew your butt could be so sensitive? “I’m stuck.”
“Stuck?!? Get your hands off my ass!” I replied angrily. He shushed me quietly, and moved closer to me -although how THAT was possible I’m not sure- to try to pull his hands out from under my ass. He winced when his hands scraped against the wooden pallets. He shook his head.
“Sorry. I can’t do it.” He grinned sheepishly, and squeezed my butt again.
I was about to say something when Changmin started talking “GUYS! Hey! What’s up?” Changmin’s voice wafted to us from wherever he was standing.
“Well, well, well, if it isn’t the favourite half-breed. Aren’t you supposed to be with your little human friends?” A somewhat familiar voice said. Where had I heard that voice before?
“Yeah, I decided to help out. They sort of bailed on me.” I could hear Min shrug. “You don’t mind do you?”
“Whatever…” Another stranger grumbled. “You half-breeds are always doing what you want. Did you check this place out?”
Yunho’s hands moved against my butt again, and I bit back a squeak. I looked up into Yunho’s eyes. “I told you to stop that dammit!”
“Come ON! When am I ever going to get a chance like this again?” He pouted.
“When I chop off your hands you won’t ever get a chance again.” I growled in a low voice. He scoffed, and squeezed my ass really tightly. “HEY!” I mouthed. “What are you doing?”
He leaned his head closer to mine so that his breath tickled my ear. “I should get my fill now, don’t you think?” He whispered in a low husky tone.
“Why you-” I started to say, but Yunho pressed his cheek against my lips to shut me up. I guess his hands really are stuck under my ass. He shushed me quietly and we listened to the vampires moving around the warehouse.
“I’ve looked around already.” Changmin’s voice grinned. “It’s really QUIET IN HERE.” He emphasized, probably for us.
“Heechul, I think the half-breed’s right.” A strange voice said.
“I have a name you know.” Min’s voice started fading, and the footsteps did too.
I relaxed a little bit. Yunho turned his head to face me again, and his lips brushed against mine. His eyes widened, and then hooded over. I started to feel really tingly everywhere, and I could feel my eyes close slowly too. Yunho’s breathing was a little heavier than usual, and I don’t know if it was the lack of lighting or whatever, but his eyes were almost completely black. It’s… Crap… it’s kind of sexy. “Yun…” I mouthed, and my mouth almost moved against his. Did he always have that mole on his upper lip?
“Yeah?” His eyes were half-closed, and staring at my lips.
“Nothing.” Yunho’s lips parted slightly. His face was so close I could feel his breath against my lips, and I felt my whole body itch in anticipation, but he didn’t move any closer. What is he waiting for, the messiah? Come ooon… just a little bit closer… Damn it. I pushed myself up a bit, and pressed my lips against his. FINALLY! Geez, you want something done right, you’ve got to do it yourself.
Yunho’s hands squeezed my bum, but I didn’t mind this time. He pulled me somehow closer, sliding his tongue and then his teeth against my bottom lip. He forced my mouth open, and we made out pretty passionately. I slid my hands up from his chest and buried them in his hair, changing the angle of his face so I could taste him further. His mouth is so warm and wet. Yunho squeezed my butt again, this time more roughly, not that I was really complaining. I cupped the right side of his face and pulled him closer still. This is so much better than when I was drunk, everything is much clearer… and quite frankly better tasting. He pulled back after a while, and we were both breathing heavily against each other. “Woah…” Yunho breathed. “That was… soooo much better than when we were drunk.” Can he read minds? Like EDWARD?!?!? … nah.
“Please tell me that’s not what I think it is against my thigh.” I mumbled, pressing my forehead against his chin.
“Sorry…” He whispered, and kissed the top of my head. “You’re as turned on as I am, though…” He smirked, tilting my head up. “You taste perfect.”
“You make no sense.” I smirked, and we were kissing again.
“Didn’t I tell you two to be quiet?” Changmin interrupted us, and we pulled away slowly. “Aw great. Just great. I’m happy this near-death situation has helped both of you bond. Jerks.” He yelled. “You couldn’t wait until I came back?”
“Judging by the volume of your voice, I’m going to assume we’re safe.” Min nodded. Yunho and I struggled to get out of our tight squeeze. “Why did you shove us in here? It’s too small.” I heard my jacket rip, and noticed a huge slit on the back. Great. Now I have to ask my parents to buy me a new jacket. I stumbled out first, followed closely by Yunho. The backs of his hands were scraped roughly, and bleeding. Oh… I looked away from the blood, trying to control my gag reflex. “Are you okay?” I managed to choke out. Please don’t let me faint, please dear God don’t let me faint.
“I’m fine.” He smiled at me, then turned to glare at Changmin. “Maybe you can explain to us what the hell just happened.”
Changmin groaned, and sat on the floor, pouting like an overgrown child. “You jerwads. This is all your fault! I was FINALLY going to have a normal high school experience, with almost normal friends, and you had to go and decide to pretend to be a vampire and be chased down by my coven.”
“That just confuses me even more.” I groaned, and then caught a glimpse of Yunho’s hands and looked away.
“Let’s go back to your place, and I’ll explain everything I promise.” Min got up and dusted himself off.
“Good idea. I still need to study for the math thing.” I grumbled. We followed Changmin out of the warehouses. It was much colder than earlier, but I realized it was mostly because of the giant rip in my jacket. Ugh, I hope I don’t catch a cold.
