Part 1 Part 2A Part 2B Part 3 Part 4 Part 5 Part 6 Part 7
Siwon drove as fast as he could.
He parked the car haphazardly and almost tripped in his rush to get to the house. Reaching the door his hands fumbled in their haste to unlock the door; his heart thudding like crazy as adrenaline ran through him. Stepping gingerly inside the familiar hallway, Siwon took a fortifying breath. Everything seemed normal. No signs of a struggle or a break in. Maybe Zeus had been lying? Fear clouding his thoughts he moved swiftly to check Kyuhyun’s room.
Siwon didn’t bother to knock, wanting to retain the element of surprise, and instead burst forcefully through the door. He was surprised when the handle moved easily, the force on the door made it collide harshly with the wall. However the loud bang didn’t seem to even startle the other person in the room as they continued to stare intently at their computer screen.
“I said I wanted to be left alone. You didn’t have to slam the door open to get my attention, so please just let me wallow-”
“Kyuhyun.”
Finally a confused Kyuhyun turned towards him, looking adorable in an over-sized t-shirt and slacks. The beautiful face twisted into anger as Kyuhyun realised it was him and stood hastily whilst scowling.
“Why are you back? I thought you wanted to leave.”
Ignoring the irritated words, Siwon moved closer and gathered Kyuhyun into a hug, relief that his precious person was safe. “You’re okay. Thank God.” Kyuhyun pushed at him half-heartedly, a worried look replacing the angry expression earlier. “What’s wrong with you?” Ignoring his words, Siwon merely buried his face into Kyuhyun’s neck, inhaling the sweet scent that was Kyuhyun.
“I’m sorry. Please just let me do this.” Kyuhyun slowly returned the hug, albeit with an uneasy air, his expression still worried. “Fine. But I expect an explanation.” Siwon smiled at the awkward way Kyuhyun handled this and instead hugged the man tighter.
“H-hey! You’re hugging too tightly, idiot! I’m telling Mi you’re hurting me!” Siwon suddenly pulled away from the hug, Kyuhyun’s blushing face looking back at him perplexedly. “Why did you-“
“Zhou Mi’s here?” Kyuhyun frowned before nodding. “Yeah, he came earlier, he’s downstairs. Didn’t you see him?”
“We have to get out now, Zhou Mi isn’t what…“ The words trailed off as the unmistakable barrel of a gun was pressed against the back of his head.
“Mi, what are you doing!?” Kyuhyun made to move closer but Zhou Mi started to speak. “One step closer and I will shoot him.” Kyuhyun faltered. His face filled with fear and confusion. “Why are you doing this?” Zhou Mi’s serious expression didn’t change.
“Siwon. I’m surprised you came here. I’m guessing Zeus told you the truth.”
Siwon didn’t answer, his mind running through various plans to get out of this situation.
“Mi, put down the gun! Is something-“
Kyuhyun’s words were cut off when the taller man suddenly shot at him, missing by only a few inches.
“I suggest you keep quiet Kyuhyun. I won’t miss next time.”
Siwon could tell Zhou Mi’s decision to use Kyuhyun’s proper name was jarring for the younger man. Kyuhyun merely nodded fear seeping into his confused expression and stood stock still. Despite the odds though Siwon knew he only had to stall Zhou Mi until the others arrived to check the house.
“Siwon place your hands out front. Kyuhyun put these cuffs on him.” Zhou Mi chucked a pair of handcuffs, his gun not moving from Siwon’s head. Shakily Kyuhyun moved in front of him. He tried not to wince as the other tightened it far too much but retained a small smile on his face and the tiny small back made it worth it.
“If you guys are done making eyes at each other, I have a few questions.”
Kyuhyun stumbled back, the smile disappearing. Siwon felt the gun dig painfully into his head for a moment before being forced onto his knees. The sudden change of vertigo stunned him and stopped him from dodging the bullet to his right thigh; he could hear the Chinese man move away as Kyuhyun moved towards him.
“Siwon!”
Kyuhyun’s panicked shout made him wince. Agony flowed through him although he could tell Zhou Mi had deliberately avoided any vital points; it was obvious in how he’d not gone for his femoral artery. Siwon felt gentle hands run over his face for a moment before he was being man handled into a seated position against the wall, his leg throbbing in pain. Zhou Mi’s face was blank as he stepped away and allowed Kyuhyun to scramble back to him.
“How did you escape from Zeus?”
Siwon glared up at Zhou Mi who was once again pointing the gun at his head. Kyuhyun squirmed uncomfortably next to him, a hand coming out to grip his. Siwon gave it a gentle squeeze, his gaze still locked with Zhou Mi’s.
“He’s been compromised. Zhou Mi if you stop now we can help you.”
Zhou Mi’s face remained expressionless, the normal smile missing, his eyes intense as he stared at them.
“Is he dead?”
“No.”
“What did he tell you?”
“Only that you’re part of his group and he gave you orders involving Kyuhyun.”
A flicker of emotion over the others face before it went back to the carefully blank expression.
“Where’s the rest of your team?”
Siwon’s mind scrambled to think of a lie. “They’re still dealing with the rest of the group. I said I could deal with you on my own.”
No reaction. Siwon prayed his lie wasn’t absolutely obvious. The taller man didn’t respond and pulled out a phone instead.
As Zhou Mi pulled out a phone, Siwon tried to assess the overall damage to his leg. It was bleeding heavily but the bullet didn’t seem to have hit bone. The pain had decreased into a persistent throbbing and he needed to do something about the blood loss soon. He was startled out of his thoughts when something hit his face.
“Wrap that around the wound tightly. I don’t want you dying of blood loss yet.”
He felt Kyuhyun’s hand leave his to grab the cloth. It was silent save for the rustle of fabric as the cloth was tied tightly around his thigh, whatever the Zhou Mi had been doing on the phone seemed done; as soon as it was done Kyuhyun grabbed his hand again. Siwon felt hope flare at the fact that Zhou Mi had helped him, even with the flimsy words he said after. Maybe he could talk some sense into the other man, or at least stall until backup arrived.
“Why are you keeping us alive when there’s no need for this anymore?”
The other didn’t acknowledge his question instead looking intently at his phone again, his gun still pointed at him. Despite this Siwon continued.
”Zhou Mi, Zeus has been captured. You’re our friend! What’s the point of continuing his orders?”
Something seemed to snap inside the other man as he finally moved to stand above Siwon, a sneer looking completely out of place on his face.
“I don’t need to explain-“
Bzzz. Bzzz. Bzzz.
Panic engulfed him at the vibrating of his phone. Zhou Mi stilled. Listening intently to the source of noise before immediately stepping right up to him and grabbed the phone in his jacket. He made an angry noise as he looked at the caller ID. The taller man stepped back.
“I want you to act as if nothing’s happened or I’ll kill Kyuhyun.” The gun shifted to Kyuhyun who pressed himself tightly against the wall his grip on Siwon’s hand becoming painful. Zhou Mi’s expression remained disturbingly blank as he flipped the phone open and pressed the speaker button.
“Siwon is he there?” Kangin’s voice echoed in the room.
“Yes.”
“Did you secure Kyuhyun?” He had to get Kangin to hang up before he said something that would alert Zhou Mi of their arrival.
“Yes. I’ve got the situation under control.”
“Good. Also…I’m sorry about yesterday. I shouldn’t have accused both of you like that-“
“It’s alright Kangin-hyung!” Siwon inwardly let out a frustrated sigh. As much as he appreciated the other’s apology he needed him to hang up.
A few indistinguishable murmurs in the background before Kangin chuckled.
“I get it! Heechul stop going into details- Siwon if you wanted me to hang up so you can have your time with Kyuhyun you should have just said so. Don’t worry. I’ll say bye now but just so you know we’ll be there in twenty minutes so make sure you guys are at least decent when we get there!”
Shit.
Another laugh and some catcalling in the background before dial tone, Siwon could feel his blood go cold as Kyuhyun’s grip tightened even more. Zhou Mi moved slowly towards them, gun still pointing at Kyuhyun.
“When were you planning on telling me you had backup coming?”
Zhou Mi didn’t wait for an answer. Instead the he moved even closer to Kyuhyun, his gun raised high before slamming the butt of the handle onto the others head. Siwon watched in horror as his precious person slumped over, unconscious.
“I think it’s time we relocated.”
Siwon felt his cuffs being unlocked before being roughly pulled up.
“Carry him.”
He felt the gun being pressed to his head again and ignoring the throbbing of his leg he picked up Kyuhyun with effort. Worry flooded through him as he stared down at the lifeless face. A bruise was beginning to form on the forehead and Siwon felt his heart clench in fear.
How could he have let this happen? Kyuhyun was hurt because of him and things didn’t look hopeful.
“Move out of the door.” He moved hesitantly, a combination of his injury and reluctance to leave the familiarity of the main house. Siwon heard a clatter as he heard Zhou Mi chuck his phone against the wall; it broke with a nasty crack.
“Hurry up.”
--
Kyuhyun showed no signs of waking up when they got to the car.
Siwon stared down worriedly at the unconscious face; Zhou Mi’s gun still directed at his head a stark reminder not to try anything.
“Put him into the back seat.”
He watched as the other moved carefully around him to open the door, gun still poised and ready to shoot. Placing Kyuhyun gently onto the back seat, Siwon resisted the urge to hug the unconscious man. Before he could do anything he felt a hand yank his shirt and he stumbled backwards, leg aching in pain at the jolting movement.
“We need to get moving.”
He was surprised when Zhou Mi made him get into the driver seat although that soon changed when he saw the Chinese man slide into the seat next to him, his gun trained carefully at Siwon’s head again.
“Drive. I’ll give you directions.”
Siwon started the ignition. His stomach twisted in worry. He hoped to God the others would find them. As he drove onto the road he glanced at Zhou Mi whose gaze was focused on him.
“Where are we going?”
There was a distinct pause before the other spoke.
“It’s a secret.
--tbc.
I guess we’ll all find out why Zhou Mi’s involved soon enough? :D
