the same throbbing pain before spiked his whole body again, Pa goe let out a sharp gasp, his whole body tensing up. as he slowly got down from the bed, walking towards the door with shaky legs. with one swift motion, he swung open the door just to meet eyes with ha eun, with the same cigeratte bobbing on his mouth, with the same smug smile. he was fine and nothing happened. Pa goe hated ha eun but seeing him okay felt like some weight was lift of his shoulders,
"meeting?" pa goe asked, still leaning against the door, HS eyes droopy
"you bet, pretty boy" Ha Eun said already turning around and walking away to the living room
Pa goe, A little annoyed by ha eun usual cocky demeanor follows behind him, gaze still lingering around no where, then it landed on the obvious blood stain on the hem of ha euns shirt, curious, Pa goe asked "Ha eun, why is there a blood stain on your shirt?" Ha Eun glanced at Pa goe over his shoulder, seemingly annoyed but turned around with a big smile, spreading his arms wide "it's the latest design! don't you know?" Ha Eun said happily
"oh okay" Pa goe mumbled clearly not believing ha eun, he looked away at a nearby painting
"oh pretty boy you have no authorities to be judging me" Ha euns voice dropped to a snarl, his expression changed within a split second. Pa goe looked at ha eun, "hmm" was all he answered back with
the living room lights blinded Pa goe for a few seconds before his vision cleared, two pair of familiar eyes looked at him, greeting casual sayings like nothing happened, cause nothing really happened, or that's what they all thought. pa goe smiled subconsciously. unable to hide the joy of able to see them again,
He slumped back into the same armchair as he did last time, listening to the same speach from the same person. it was boring but brief
"hey man, wanna go grab dinner with me later" cheon sa asked, his voice gentle, his hands fidgeting behind his back. Looking at Pa goe with pleading eyes. Pa goe was taken back by cheon sa's request. This didn't happened last time... Without thinking much. He agreed to the outing and was weirded out seeing cheon sa happily skadaddle away,
Watching everyone leaving, Pa goe can't help but feel lonely, after what he had just experienced.
He decided to go to bed though he knew what was about to happened. The abyss, the pain, but exhausted won over fear as he tucked himself up and slowly drifted to slumber, it was just gonna be a quick 5 minute nap, right?
- in the dream-
Pa goe shot right out of his sleeping position, panting. He looked around, he was in the abyss now, but... he didn't feel any pain, actually, he felt delight and comfortable, which was weird after the dreams he encountered the past two weeks. he looked up and laid back down, moving his arms like he was making a snow angel, the surface he was laying on felt like cotton,
"why did you choose me" he called out, he felt schizophrenic but no one was there so it was fine. no one answered back. annoyed, pa goe sat up, looking at nothing
"I know you're watching me" he called out once more, not giving up till he gets an answer
[ what do you want ] a message finally popped up in front of Pa goe
pa goe smirked and grinned. "looks like it has an attitude huh" before a wave of electricity course through his whole body, eletrocuting him, "Ah fuck!!" he screamed in pain, " okay! Okay! You made your point now!" his body convulsed before it stopped completely, "jeez..." Pa goe mumbled, running his fingers through his hair.
[ Don't do that anymore ]
Pa goe let out a hum in response, staring at the systems message. damn this is annoying... frowning as he thought that to himself. "okay I get it, you're strong as hell. so why did you choose me" the silence was loud after that, Pa goe grumbled and flopped down to a comfortable sleeping position but drifted to sleep, in a dream? ugh whatever
waking up after that nap was the best thing he ever felt after weeks of waking up in cold sweat and pain, he stretched and yawn, looking at his phone for the time, expecting for it to be an hour or two after he slept
[ 6:30 ] was what displayed on the phone, he blinked once, then another
he had been sleeping for 7 hours, his eyes widened as the realisation dawned upon him. he threw in some clothes and drove away, maybe running over a mailbox on the way, he wasn't late but he definitely didn't have anymore extra time to shake his ass
arriving at the restaurant, Pa goe couldn't help but feeling impressed by how fancy the restaurant was, he walked in, the decorations from big chandeliers to rosemary scent candles filled the whole restaurant, giving it the whole romantic vibe. he was then escorted out to the rooftop seating. supposedly a very romantic spot. it was empty so it wasn't that hard to spot cheon sa, wearing explicitly fancy for a small dinner out.
"hey cheon sa, didnt know you could dress up so well" Pa goe teased, smiling along the way
"look Who's talking" cheon sa replied taking a long sip of wine, looking at Pa goe up and down
"I didn't know the restaurant would fancy" he sat down and looked around properly, taking in all the fancy exterior decorations.
"how can I take such beauty out for a simple meal?" cheon sa chuckled, swirling his drinking
"how sweet of you" Pa goe didn't think much about the flirting as he took a sip of wine as well
as the night wore on, they shared inside jokes, laughed and genuinely just enjoyed the food. at the small little session was almost reaching its peak. cheon sa looked up at the moon, smiled and said
"the moon looks beautiful tonight, isn't it?"
