Jihoon hesitately raise his hand up to knock Junkyu's apartment door. With a plastic bag of chips and soda on his other hand, he close his eyes, taking a deep breath and clear his throat.
And what if he already sleep ???
He take out his phone from his pocket and try to text Junkyu. He scroll through their cute conversation before and get hurt afterward. How could they got into a cold war just because of a slight mistake ? He didn't dare to send a text to the latter as his ego won't let himself to let this matter slide. He sighed and decide to go back to his own apartment which at 4th floor beneath Junkyu's apartment.
Jihoon confused when the elevator he used before is malfunction. The elevator is fine just now but why suddenly ? He shrugged and just use the stair. While stepping down through the stair, he feels like someone following him. He turn around to check if it was Junkyu but he didn't see anyone. He got chill when a wind touch his skin. No window around here so where the hell the wind coming from ? He gulped hard when he remembered the case where vampire suck human blood.
He quickens his pace with a loud heartbeat. Locking his door together with every window inside his apartment after he reach his apartment. He's scared. A panting and sweat drop from his temple while he drinking a bottle of cold water. With a trembling hand, he text Junkyu and tell everything what had happened to him.
While Junkyu already asleep at Haruto's private apartment.
The morning at the bus stop after Haruto dropping Junkyu here, he quickly run toward Yonghwa University after he read Jihoon's text this early morning earning an anxious on him. Haruto shook his head. He already offered to the younger that they can go to University together but Junkyu said he don't want Haruto to get a nasty rumor for going to school with his own student.
It's not like we can't erase their memory thought Haruto and just watching Junkyu slowly disappeared from his sight.
At the hall, Junkyu hug Jihoon immediately. He was damn worried after what happened to Jihoon last night. Jihoon sighed with a soft smiles "ya, I'm still fine. Maybe it just me being paranoid last night" Jihoon assured his bestie. Junkyu tighten their hug ignoring everyone who slightly laugh at them.
"I'm sorry. I should tell you that I'm not at home last night" Junkyu murmured placing his chin on Jihoon's shoulder. Jihoon frowned. "so, where were you last night ?"
Junkyu broke their hugged and awkwardly smile "I'm at... library." he lied. "library ? alone ? last night ?" Jihoon asked in curiosity. Junkyu nod as a reply.
At the lab, Haruto take a sit at the empty seat while gazing at a pile of files on the table. The temperature inside the room made him chill. Lisa look up at him and sighed.
"What do you want to talk so bad ? you even sent a text to me this early morning saying that you need to say something " Haruto asked broking their silent. Lisa stood up from her seat and drink a cup of coffee that she bought from the nearest cafe this morning.
"Last night, I don't know if it was my dream or the future might happen to Junkyu." she hesitately stated and the male look at her with serious face after he heard Junkyu's name. "he... died in Jay's hand" she pressed her lips afterward. It's hard for her to said that but she needs to.
"Jay ?? why Jay ?!" Lisa flinched when Haruto clunk the table and stare at her intensely "I don't understand either. Last time when I checked Junkyu's future he.. he's okay with you and you both looks very happy together but my last night dream.... seems like something is twisting it.." she hold Haruto's arm try to calm the male down. She know he hate Jay so much and what more if the male really kill the kid he supposed to protect?
Haruto took a deep breath while rub his face. "but... it's my dream ruto...and it might not true." Lisa assured him again.
"you said the same thing last 100 years ago. You also had a bad dream where I murdered Yihyun by sucking her blood but you assured me it just a dream so I let it slide away but turned out... it's true..." Haruto's eyes was in bloody shot with his tremble lips "even though I take a mental note for what you had dream that day, but why I keep going and kill her back then" he cried. Lisa lick her dry lips and come to the male. Slowly rub his back. She knows the male was guilty after what he had done.
"I'm sure Junkyu will be okay... I believe in you" she muttered while praying her dream was just a dream and not a future spoiler. She sighed silently.
A couple of minutes after that, Haruto sniffed and just sit silently at the corner. Lisa offer him a glass of water and stare at Haruto.
"can you tell me the detail of your dream ?" Haruto open his mouth when he feel he's a little bit calm. It take a few seconds for Lisa to respond. "Junkyu save his friend from getting bite by Jay's fellow member. And... actually he was got trapped.. I can't really tell the detail because everything was dark. To be short, Jay also targeting him not only a group of werewolves" she explained.
Haruto run his hand on his hair in distress.
Jay, you such a monster
14 years ago, exactly the day after KwangKyu, Junkyu's father death, the vampire creature breaking apart after the big fight between Haruto and Jay. They used to be a best partner but then, because of jealousy, Jay started to betrayed them which it's effected master Kwangkyu death.
The night of blue moon appearance 14 years ago, Kwangkyu bring his 7 years old son out from their house as soon as he received a report from one of his pupil, Jay, saying that a group of werewolves will come to attack his place and giving a place for them to hide when actually Jay told those werewolves to attack the old man and kidnap his son at the "hide place" he send.
Haruto was clueless about it back then. He don't know about his master who was in danger. He was here drinking with Yeonjun, Jaehyun and Doyoung at Yoshi's bar. They really clueless about it not until they received a text from Lisa with Yoon and Soobin trying to reach them.
At the scene, Haruto was too late. His master already drenched with blood "ma.. master.." he murmured and try to get closer with the old man body to hear what is Kwangkyu last wish while the others start to fight the wolves.
"bring my son out from this place.." Kwangkyu chocked and Haruto shook his head in denied "no.. Master... you can drink my blood here... you can't die like this !" he cried.
Kwangkyu refused it then gaze at his innocent son who just froze watching the chaos around him. Haruto took a deep breath and turned to look at little Junkyu. "if this what you want..." he quickly run toward the kid when he saw a werewolf try to take the kid away. With all of his strength, eyes turning red, he chocked the wolf and smashed it down with so much anger.
He close little Junkyu's eyes with his palm and bring the kid away from this place while giving a nod to Yeonjun and the others that they will settle and fight this creature.
After sending Junkyu to his grandparents hometown, he look for the male who betrayed them all. At the middle of forest, Haruto grabbed Jay's collar and punch him for a couple of time. "what are you doing huh ?!"
Jay laughed in amusement with a blood running through from his nose and lick his bleeding lips. "that old man deserves to die !!" he giggled and another punch land on his face. With teary eyes, heavy breath and pain inside his heart, Haruto didn't miss this chance to murder the male in front of him but right in time, Soobin and Yeonjun arrived stopping him.
"Don't stop me !!!" he yelled out of his lung. Soobin punch him and he fall on the ground crying "why... why you doing this Jay ??" with sorrowful voice he asked. Jay also start to break down "I'm doing this... because you're the only pupil he like, you're his favourite. He never praise me..." Jay sniff.
"How dare you said that ?!! he like you too !! " shouted Haruto then once again, he reach for Jay's collar, looking intensely at the male. Soobin try to stop them but Yeonjun hold Soobin's wrist and shook his head "let them be"
"he never like me.. he always look for my mistake. Everything that I do is wrong..." Jay denied it with a shook. "asshole !!!" Haruto yelled and kneel down as he feel exhausted.
"Just want you to know, I hate you... I regret for telling master to saved you from the hell prison 100 years ago" uttered Jay before he walk to leave them.
"Hye ! instead of apologizing for what you had done, you have an audacity to leave like this ??" shouted Yoshi from behind. Jay smirk. With five others following him "let's break apart like this. Let's see who will rule this world..." Jay laughed.
"that kid... he still alive right ? those stupid werewolves couldn't catch him. What a pathetic creature" Jay speak letting all of them to hear.
Haruto snapped from his deep thought when he feels someone playing with his cheek. He turn to look at the culprit and the boy grin at him. "what are you daydreaming about ?? you don't even touch your food" Junkyu take his spoon to dig the kimchi soup.
Right. He was eating a lunch with Junkyu along with Yeonjun and Yoshi. The two vampire just silent eating their afternoon meal without a word. It's strange though Junkyu. It's understanding for Haruto and Yoshi who didn't talk much but Yeonjun too ?? why they look so quiet ?
"what is happening ? is there another victim for today ?" Junkyu guess breaking the silent. Yeonjun turn at him and smiles "no news yet but let just hope there's no victim for today"
Junkyu nod. "may I ask ? who could be the murderer ?" he asked in slow tone. Yeonjun glance at Haruto and Yoshi. Yoshi avoid to answer by suck his green tea ice through the straw. Haruto scratch his head. Junkyu look at them awkwardly as he didn't get any response.
"They are... our rival... can be considered like that.." Yeonjun finally responded with a force little laugh. Junkyu just nod even though he don't really understand and there Haruto finally open his mouth and tell everything about the vampire breaking apart for some reason. Junkyu silent afterward. He remembered the photo he found inside his father's room where his father stand in between of two male. Watanabe Haruto and Jay Park. Junkyu finally understand. It's so sad they breaking apart because of jealousy and dissatisfaction. Should he blame his father for this trouble ? but, because of that Jay male, his father got murdered by werewolves.
Junkyu gripped his hand and silently sighed.
"Haruto hyung... I will go back with Jihoon later. It's been 3 days I haven't sleep on my own bed" informed Junkyu.
"but-" Junkyu quickly shut Haruto's mouth by shoving a spoon of meat inside the older mouth because he know what Haruto is going to say "don't worry about me. I'm not going to turn into a monster and you should believe in me okay ??" Junkyu assured then pat Haruto's head acting like he was older than Haruto.
Yeonjun and Yoshi part their lips as they couldn't digest what just they witness. How can Junkyu tamed the cool and arrogant vampire male like Haruto ??? the way Haruto's cheek reddish with the head pat he got from the younger is enough for them to say that Haruto was melted. He even didn't say anything after that because usually he will firmly won't allow it.
"what is happening ?" Yeonjun whispered.
"I don't know" Yoshi whispered back with their eyes staring at them where Junkyu randomly talking about something that both Yeonjun and Yoshi couldn't understand with Haruto smile softly while listening to Junkyu.
