So fun story, the theme I had in mind after Jooheon’s was Changkyun’s and he would be a mobster that runs an underground gambling ring since it’s not allowed in Korea aside from a handful of casinos. And then Monsta X came out with Gambler and my little fanfic writer heart exploded. It’s still coming, but for now I thought I would share a little fun fact about the next story.
For your question i would love to see Changkyun or Kihyun next. Also i was wondering if you will do an etablish relationship or all the meeting and love grow?
Thank you do responding! I am not 100% sure on all of them yet. I’m still working through the planning on the remaining members. ♥️
So... Jooheon’s story is done. I’ll probably edit the last few chapters a little later with a fresh set of eyes. Who should be next? Changkyun? Hyungwon? Kihyun? Or Minhyuk?
I already have an idea sort of, but I wanted to see what feedback there was. ♥️
Another six hours drag on as you try not to worry the others and stay put like he wanted you too. You need to hear something. You had too. The black case containing his backup plan rested on the bedside table. If the next 18 hours passed without him you’d be moved and never see any of them again. Another 18 hours and you were supposed to become a whole new person without him.
……
“Here,” Jill, Shownu’s wife, spoke as she entered the room. She handed you a black cellphone. “I was told to give this to you.”
You took it without saying anything. The sting of tears burning your eyes as you griped it tightly to keep your hand from shaking.
She frowns before taking the spot next to you. Her arm wrapped around you.
“How do you remain so calm?”
“I’m anything but,” she whisper softly. “But I have children to care for and with Shownu being the oldest the women often look to me for support.”
“But if Jooheon doesn’t come back doesn’t that mean…” you fade off and she only hugs you tighter.
“It does.”
Tears well again as it all clicks. If you were to leave it mean none of them likely made it and it meant every one in the safe-house with you just lost someone.
“Oh god.”
She squeezes your side before rising and going without another word as you try to collect yourself. You had been so worried over Jooheon you hadn’t even realized what it meant for the others.
……
You were in a car, being taken to the airport, a ticket for the states in hand. You couldn’t fight back the tears anymore. You had been so angry with him for pushing you away and keeping secrets, but now you’d give anything to see him again. To see his dimpled smile and feel his touch.
How could you start over so easily? You couldn’t. He had to have convinced himself you could, but you knew better. There was no possibly way you could move on without him.
As the car pulled to a stop at the light the driver’s cell rang. You immediately began to eavesdrop, but you couldn’t hear anything. He spoke too low for you.
“We have to make a pitstop Miss,” he said after hanging up. You pause and he catches the fear in your eyes. “You are safe. I promise. Mr. Lee is a dear friend, I will let no harm come to you.”
You nod, tears welling again as you fidget with the bottom of your shirt. Your eyes closed and you saw his face again. The final look before you were taken away to safety and he went to protect you and his family.
After a few minutes the car comes to a stop near the shipping docks and the door opens. The driver offers your his hand and you take it gripping it.
“Is this another transfer for safety?” You ask.
He smiles weakly. “Something like that.”
He leads you into a warehouse and you pause to see a shadowed figure in the center. His back to you.
“Jooheon?” You ask. You could spot that stance anywhere. He turns and you immediately move to be in his arms. He grunts in pain as you collapse into his chest. Your face buried in his face as the sobs unleash.
“You’re safe,” he whispers cradling your head.
“You’re alive!” You cry looking up into his face. He nods smoothing the hair at the back of your head.
“Alive and well."
You wince at the last word as you take in his damaged face and the tired look in his eyes.
He offers a half smile before leaning down. His lips brush yours.
“A safe-house?” You question as you pack a bag for a few nights away. He brings you a small case, black with a hardshell. You hesitantly take it. “What is this?”
“Protection. Incase I don’t come back,” he mumbles, stepping closer until his body is pressed against your side.
You unsnap the latches and open it slowly to see two decent side stacks of cash, a passport, ID, and a cellphone.
“There are measures in place if we don’t check in by a certain time to get you out safely.”
“Jooh-”
His finger presses to your lips. “It’s serious, Love. They want us dead, all of us. I refuse to let my choices end your life. Understood?”
“Yes,” you whisper softly and he nods before taking the box. He closes it before adding it to your suitcase.
“Everything ready?”
You nod, tears collecting in your eyes as he zips up the suitcase. When he finally stands straight and his eyes land on you the tears are already rolling down your cheeks.
He immediately has you in his arms. Face pressed to his chest as he holds you tight.
You lift your head and your lips find his. The kiss is wet from tears but he doesn’t hold back either. Once the kiss ends, his lips press to your forehead.
“Come back to me Honey, please?”
“I’m going to try my best Baby.”
You nod and slip from him before heading out of the room and downstairs to the waiting car. You were going to a safe-house with him. Him and his men were going into a war and you weren’t allowed to be anywhere nearby.
……
“Come sit down Honey,” an older, but kind woman explain patting the spot beside her. You shook your head chewing on your nail as you paced waiting for some sort of sign he was alive and well. They were all alive and well.
Over the course of the past 48 hours you had become acquainted with each and every person in the safe-house. Most of them girlfriends or family of Jooheon’s men.
“You need to eat.” A gentle hand is on your forearm pulling your attention. You smile weakly at Shownu’s wife as she places a warm bowl of soup in your hands. “Jooheon is going to be fine. They always are. They look out for one another.”
You nod and claps the bowl with both hands before sitting down on the arm chair. You curl up and set the bowl to the side after a moment. You couldn’t eat, not when he was out there risking his life and all the men on his payroll for you.
Jooheon smiled as his finger drug up and down your arm. You glance at him and away as your cheeks heat.
“Can I join the meeting?” You ask softly, playing with your fingers. You knew it was happening soon. The others were beginning to arrive and his personality was beginning to shift to that of the boss.
“No.”
You lift an eyebrow and turn to him. He sighs.
“Not this time. There are things being discussed you shouldn’t hear. For your safety.”
“For my safety?” You question and he nods once before looking away. He didn’t like telling you no, but he had to keep you safe in all of this mess he had caused.
You slid away from his side on the sofa and stand collecting the book you had been reading before he had joined you.
“Please understand,” he whispers as you turn to leave him.
You couldn’t deny you were bristling with annoyance and anger that he kept doing this to you. You bit your lip and paused for a second before responding.
“I can’t understand, because you keep me in the dark.”
You do not look back as you exit the room. Jooheon groans deflating into the sofa. He pressed the heel of his hands to his face.
“You okay?” A familiar voice asked and he glanced to see his oldest brother in the doorway.
“Yes… no,” he huffs and Shownu cracks a smile.
“Have anything to do with her storming off?”
“Yes,” Jooheon grumbles and Shownu chuckles.
“Give her time. She’s not used to all of this like we are. She wasn’t born into this and she didn’t exactly choose it.”
Jooheon glances at him again before nodding with a word. He was right, like always.
……
Night had come and you had eaten dinner alone. His private meeting taking up the rest of his day. You sat curled up on the bed in your PJs flipping through the vast movie selection on the bedroom television. A sharp rap on the door pulled your attention as he opened it and peeked in.
“Still awake?”
“Yep.”
He frowned at the edge in your voice. “Can we talk?”
You scoff. “There is no talking with you. It’s orders and secrets.”
“Baby, that’s not… I’m sorry.”
“For what Jooheon?”
He shuts the door before moving into the bed with you.
“All the secrets.”
You toss the remote onto the duvet and turn to look at him.
“Apologizing is all you do lately.”
He frowns before lifting his hand to curl in your long locks. His fingers idly play while he shifts through putting words together to explain without worrying you.
“The meetings are off limits because of your safety. It’s the truth.”
You groan and start to move, but his hand clasps down on your thigh.
“Hear me out.”
You stop trying to leave and let him continue.
“If things go south and things get out of hand you have to remain innocent for your sake. If you know of things and they question you, you could lose everything.”
“Who? Why would I be questioned?”
He licks his lip before meeting you head on. “The government. If things get bad enough and they become involved you need to be an innocent bystander. You can’t be seen as an accomplish, it’ll ruin everything for you.”
You pause and he tries to smile in reassurance, but fails.
“Your safety and well being is my top priority and I mean that. That’s why you aren’t allowed to know things.”
“You should have just told me.”
“I know.”
You reach out and run your fingers through his hair. “Secrets are fine, but I still need to be aware of why there are secrets. Understood?”
“Maybe,” he teases and you roll your eyes causing him to laugh before he pulls you down so that your head is on his chest.
The door opened and slammed warning you that he was home as you sat still letting the staff clean the cut on your arm. He entered with the rest of them right behind him. His dark and angry eyes landing on your immediately. Your bodyguard has warned him. You frowned.
“What happened?” He asked. His eyes running over the room to find your guard standing back against the wall.
“I tripped.” You answer him pulling his attention back to you.
He cocked an eyebrow and you had to look away.
You did trip. You tripped after someone had sneered at you telling you were in the wrong place. But you had tripped.
You smiled a little at the staff once she was finished and cleaning up the trash before she left the room. The others had moved around the room to settle in. All six of them sprawled out or getting a drink. Shownu took the seat beside you. His body turned towards you.
“Truth please?”
You frown, “I tripped. I promise.”
He frowns before reaching up to touch your face. “Those assholes didn’t lay a hand on you?”
“No. You’ve marked your territory so hard they’re scared to even say ‘hello’.”
He fought back a smile as Jooheon snorted from his place with Minhyuk at the bar.
“Then what happened?”
“Show-”
“Please, for my peace of mind?”
You huff. “They didn’t do anything. It was one of their women. She told me to leave, I wasn’t welcome there.”
He frowned pushing your hair behind your shoulder.
“I just wanted to check on Greta. She’s getting old now and with their operation expanding into her area I was worried.”
“I’m sorry,” he whisper pressing his forehead to your temple. His hands cover yours and squeezing them as they stay folded in your lap. “I’ll see what I can do to help her.”
“You will?”
“Yes, she kept you safe when you had no one, she’s family.”
You smile before turning to peck his lips. “Thank you.”
