You don’t know how you ended up in this situation. One moment you were on a date with Mark, walking hand in hand through a forest, which was located near a beach. You were going to walk along the beach and then have a candle lit in the evening, which you were looking forward to.
Now, you have no idea where you are. All you know is that you’re in some sort of bathroom? The tiled floor under you is cold to the touch, and the tiled walls all covered in dirt and grime. There was a pool of blood in the middle of the floor, creeping you out.
You sat up on the floor, holding your head as you winced. You felt a wet substance as you touched the back of your head, bringing your hand in front of your face. Your fingers were coated in crimson, the blood on your fingers making you panic. You’ve never been a fan of blood, always feeling sick at the sight of it. Didn’t really help you since you bleed for a week every month.
You tried to get up off the floor, but unsucceeded, as you felt yourself being pulled back down. You looked at your hand and saw you were handcuffed to a radiator. The handcuff was hurting your wrist, you’re sure it was going to leave a mark there.
You then realised that Mark is nowhere to be seen as you look around frantically, trying to find him. You cried out for him, expecting an answer, but to no avail, no response was heard. Tears welled up in your eyes, thinking the worst. Suddenly a loud noise interrupted your thoughts. A voice was heard through the speakers, making you freeze.
“Hello there. I hope you’re comfortable because it’s going to be quite a while until you see any sunlight. That’s if you can escape”, the voice said. You recognise the voice from somewhere, but you can’t pinpoint how you recognise it. The voice started speaking again.
“Do you recognise my voice? Come on y/n, make that pretty little brain of yours think”, how did the voice know your name? You can’t even think who could be the person talking. You thought long and hard, trying to think of someone. That’s when you realise why you recognise the voice.
“Hey, y/n? C-can I talk to you?” a timid voice asked from behind you. You turned around and saw the young boy, his snaggle tooth on show as he shyly smiled at you. You excused yourself from your friends as you followed the boy, walking to a secluded area of the school. Luckily no one goes to that part of the school, and this was his spot where he comes to hang out by himself.
“Be quick, ok? Just say what you gotta say and let me get back to my friends”, you said rather rudely, feeling annoyed that this boy interrupted your conversation with your friends. “I was wondering if you, uhm, wanted to go out sometime? I like you and you seem cool”, the boy played with his fingers as he spoke, looking at his feet.
Your laughter broke the silence after a couple of minutes, the boy’s heart breaking. “Go out? With you? Ha, no thanks. Besides, I already like someone else so, move along”, you move your hand in a shooing motion, smirking. The boy had tears in his eyes, running out of the school, his bag making a lot of noise.
“Renjun?”, you said quietly, the timid boy from school has you locked up in a foul smelling bathroom. You heard his laughter through the speakers, tears streaming down your face. You struggled against the handcuffs, the metal clanging against the radiator.
“There’s no point in doing that doll. It won’t work”, Renjun said, a chuckle leaving him. You yelled, wanting to get out, getting more and more frustrated as time went on. “Oh by the way, there was a guy that was with you. I’m assuming he’s your boyfriend”, Renjun said, your body freezing. Mark?
“Where is Mark? Is he ok? I swear to fucking god if you’ve touched him, I will end you”, you shouted through tears, your wrist beginning to hurt like hell. Renjun laughed at your comment, throwing his head back in his chair.
“How can you end me if you’re locked up in a room? You need to escape before you can do anything, doll”, Renjun said and you could tell he was smirking at how his tone sounded, and you cussed at him. It was silent for a while, and that’s when you realised Renjun was gone and you were all alone.
Now you had to figure out how to escape all on your own, and how to get the stupid handcuffs off. You looked around and couldn’t seem to find a key, or anything that would break the metal. You just sat there, feeling hopeless.
Suddenly, you noticed a meat cleaver on the floor in the corner of your eye. You looked at it for a moment and shuffled your body over, trying to reach it. After a few attempts, you managed to grab the handle, gripping it.
“I see you noticed a tool to try and help you escape. But will you actually go through with it? Or are you still the same fucking coward from 5 years ago?”, Renjun sounded different now. His cheerful tone turned sour, like he was a completely different person.
You frowned at his words, closing your eyes. You lifted the blade in the air, hesitating for a bit. You moved your arm, the blade hitting your flesh above where the handcuff is. You let out a pained scream, blood gushing out of your arm. You struck the blade again, cutting the flesh. You were halfway through cutting through your wrist, starting to feel nauseous. You felt yourself about to throw up as you looked down, seeing bone and muscle, blood continuing to gush out of your arm.
After about 15 minutes, you managed to cut off your lower forearm, a stump from where your wrist used to be. Blood was still coming out, but not as much. You threw up a couple of times, and you felt yourself on the verge of passing out.
You put your cardigan onto the stump, trying to stop the bleeding. You saw the part of your arm you cut off, your hand still attached to the radiator. You stood up, your legs like jelly as you stumbled. You tried to find where the door was, looking around. You soon found it: camouflage into the wall, the door handle the same colour as the grimy wall.
You tried opening it, but it wouldn’t budge. You tried over and over, thinking it was just stuck. But unfortunately, it was locked. You huffed out loud, falling to the floor. “You didn’t think it was that easy, did you? Wow, you really are eager to escape, aren’t you doll?”, Renjun’s voice said through the speakers, his voice startling you. You soon grew angry, standing up and hitting the door.
“Let me out, you bastard or I swear to god I will fucking kill you”, you shouted, continuing to hit the door. The door soon opened with a click, you grabbing the handle and swung it open, running out the room.
You looked around the room, seeing lights and wires all over the place. Where the hell are you? You ran as fast as you could, trying to find a way out of the building. You came across a weird looking door, the only door that wasn’t metal and just looked….normal. You opened it but frowned as soon as you saw what was inside.
You saw Mark tied to a beam, his face bloody and bruised. You ran over to him, holding his face with your hand. “Mark? Can you hear me?”, you asked with worry in your voice. Mark made a sound, telling you he is awake.
You got him free by cutting him free, helping him up. You headed towards the door, almost reaching the exit until you heard a loud bang. The noise made you jump and accidentally let go of Mark. As soon as you did, Mark fell to the floor with a thud. You saw his body lying there as you were frozen still. Blood started surrounding his body, and that’s when you realised what the loud bang was: Mark had been shot.
You didn’t know what to do. You just stood there, staring at his now lifeless body on the floor. After a few moments, you screamed and fell to the floor, hugging his body. You cried and cried, your body exhausted from the amount of pain you were in.
“Well, it seems that you’re the person who gets to escape. Unfortunately for your boyfriend though, he uhhh met his fate”, a voice was heard from behind you, making you angry. You stood up and turned around, about to yell at Renjun. You stared at him and looked at how different he looks from 5 years ago. His hair was now a white blonde, his features sharp. You weren’t going to lie, he looks attractive as hell. But that doesn’t change the fact he killed your boyfriend.
“I’m going to be honest here and say, I’m sorry about your boyfriend. I didn’t want to kill him. I actually wanted to kill you”, Renjun said as he walked closer to you, making you take a step back. Your back hit a wall, Renjun now close to your face. He trapped you between his arms, his hands either side of your head.
“The reason why I didn’t kill you in the end is because I wanted to make you suffer for what you put me through in high school. You fucking humiliated me after I confessed to you. I’m not angry that you rejected me, I’m angry that you told almost everyone about what happened, and how pathetic I was”, Renjun said lowly, and you felt regret eating you up.
After what happened, you felt really bad but you didn’t say anything to him because, honestly? You were scared. You were a fucking coward and you had to deal with that for the rest of your life. You wanted to apologise for making his life miserable but you didn’t and if you could turn back time and apologise, you would do it in a heartbeat. But unfortunately you can’t do that, and you suffered the consequences of Renjuns anger.
“I’m sorry”, you said quietly, your cheeks stained with tears. Renjun stared at you as you broke down in tears, not knowing what to do. “I’m sorry, ok? I wanted to apologise but I didn’t because I’m a fucking coward. I never should have been so harsh to you. I’m really, really sorry. You don’t have to forgive me but, I am sorry, I swear”, you said through tears. Renjun was going to forgive you anyway, since he’s madly in love with you. He knew he could make you apologise, and his mission had succeeded.
The only thing left to do? Make you his.
