The moment Addison texted him Ji-Ho began to worry. When she admitted that she wasn’t exactly sure where she was, he began to panic. Was anyone of their friends with her or was she alone with stranger? The young man was already putting his shoes one when his phone alerted him that he had received new messages. A sigh of relief escaped his lips, at least she wasn’t drunk enough to not be able to send him her location. Having to track down her phone himself would have taken much longer to do. He left without telling anyone in the house, a possible mistake on his part. He was only one man and if Addison was in some serious trouble then he might need some back up.
Too impatient to wait for an Uber, he ran to her while occasionally checking his phone to make sure she hadn’t left. She was only a couple of miles, three, tops away from the house and he ran it in record time. When he got there he stopped and bent over, trying to catch his breath. There was some sort of party going on, way too many people for his liking. A moment passed where he called an Uber for them to get back to the beach house and then he started moving through the crowd, eyes scanning for his friend. “Addison?” He tried to call out over all the noise.
“Addison,” Ji-Ho relaxed a little now that she was in his sights. “Addison,” he repeated her name, gently placing his hand on her shoulder to get her attention. “I think it’s time to get you back to the house, yeah?” His voice was calm but his emotions were still haywire with worry.
The guy that was talking to her attempted to push Ji-Ho aside, telling him that she didn’t want to go anywhere. The look on this stranger’s face, looking at Addison as if she were prey, made G sick. “If that were the case, she wouldn’t have texted me to come get her. Now if you’d excuse us.” He turned to Addison with a softer expression. “Come on, let’s go.” He held out his hand for her to take, not sure how capable she was of walking.
