Ducky pajamas. A squishy bed.
"I'll do it tonight."
Pulling away. Pulling back.
"Don't do it, please.. I don't want to forget you."
"And I don't want to lose you."
"No..."
The vampire moved on top of Onew, ripped his shirt down the middle, and bent down as tears rolled down Onew's cheeks.

"Listen for us." Jungmo told Taemin. "Stay here with Minho, and if anything goes wrong.." he held up his walkie talkie.
Taemin nodded, looking towards the house. Knowing Key could so possibly be inside, he was glad to wait in the car. As the others shut the car doors behind themselves, Taemin looked down to see Minho's eyelids twitch.
"No.." Minho said.
"Minho, are you awake?" Taemin asked, smiling.
Minho opened his eyes, looking confused up at Taemin. Then he blinked, and sighed. He still looked extremely tired. "What happened?"
"We got the address. We're where Noodle should be now. The guys are checking it out." Taemin grinned.
Minho sat up, "I have to get to him."
"Woah, um, we don't even know if he's in there yet. I think you need rest..."
"He's in there." Minho said, sliding to the other side of the backseat and pushing the door open. "I just know."
"H-hold on." Taemin said, following Minho out of the car. A voice came up over the walkie talkie in Taemin's pocket, and he looked down towards it, listening.
"We found him." Sungmin said.
"Oh.. that was fast." Taemin responded. Then he hurried to follow Minho inside of the house, adding on the walkie talkie. "Oh~ Minho's awake. See you in a second."
As they walked in, they could still hear the muffled beating against the trunk, and Jonghyun's "Let me out!!"s.
Indoors, Jay, Jungmo, and Sungmin were standing by the bloodied bed with Onew on it. "He's gonna need blood." Jungmo said.
"And clothes." Sungmin added. "Wait a second.. I know that chain." he leaned over the bed, triyng not to touch it much, as it frankly disgusted him. He ran his fingers over the shackle on Onew's wrist, "... It's ours."
"It needs a key." Jungmo said, frowning. "We better find it."
Minho walked through the doorway, slowing to a stop as he took in the sight of his vampire lying like a dead person on blood covered sheets. "Onew.." he whispered.
Taemin was stuck at the doorway, horrified.
"There's a key, to the chain that he's locked in." Sungmin said. Both Taemin and Minho shuddered at the word 'key'. "It.. should be pretty small, and silver." Sungmin added.
Minho walked forward, crawling onto the bed next to Onew.
"Minho," Sungmin said a bit awkwardly, "Maybe you shouldn't... um.. be on that bed.."
As if Sungmin had said nothing, Minho leaned down next to Onew, moving a hand to the back of his vampire's head and tilting it gently, so that Onew's lips touched his neck. He leaned into those lips, waiting until he felt the tips of his vampire's fangs. Then he sighed, and said, "I'm here. Take it.", and he pushed down, so Onew's fangs penetrated his skin.
Jay was the first hunter to move, walking over to a dresser to dig through drawers for the key. Sungmin and Jungmo followed suit, both leaving the room to do it. They had to pass Taemin, who remained still, watching Minho and Onew.
Onew was still for only a moment longer after Minho's blood poured in his mouth. Then he slowly started to suck on Minho's neck, even more slowly opening his eyes. It was weird, Minho thought, that he'd start feeling stronger as he was wounded, but he did. Onew's or his or both he didn't know, but energy ran through him, and the horrible headache broke away for the first time in too long.
His vampire moaned and put a hand on the back of his head, while another hand touched his back, feeling way too cold but quickly getting warmer.
Jay cleared his throat, and walked over to Taemin at the door. "Let's check another room."
Taemin blushed and nodded, stepping out with Jay.
Finally, Onew was done drinking, but though he pulled his fangs out - he still said nothing to Minho. He just licked slowly across the bite wound, which felt way too good just as Minho remembered, and he flinched. "Onew, please.."
Onew moved his hand down, pushing it up inside of Minho's shirt, effectively causing his bonded to freak out and scramble off of him, to his side on the bloody bed. When he looked, Onew was grinning a bloody grin. "Minho," Onew said, "You haven't changed."
Minho couldn't help but smile back at him, though he was ashamed to feel tears rise up in his eyes, and he looked away. "I was worried." When he looked back at Onew, he'd managed to put on a more serious expression. "Do you have any idea how much I went through for you?"
Onew suddenly looked concern, sitting up on the bed. "How did you get here? Where's Jonghyun? And Key?"
"Taemin's a vampire hunter now. Him and his friends helped me."
Onew scowled, and pulled uselessly on the chain that binded him, growling "Idiot.."
Minho blinked. "Why?"
"Hey," said Jungmo, who stepped into the doorway. He looked at Onew with narrow eyes, but simply asked once their attention was on him, "Do you know where the key is? We can't find it."
Onew's scowl disappeared, and he pulled once again on the chain. "It probably isn't here. Cut it, or break it, or bomb it, take the bed apart, just get it off.."
Minho put two hands on the chain, pulled, and nothing happened.
Onew gave him a blank look. "Thanks. Good try."
Minho glared at him.
"Maybe I can pick the lock." Jungmo said with a sigh, and he walked over to the bed while reaching for something in his pocket.

"Nope. It isn't here." Taemin said, while looking under the couch that Jay had lifted. So Jay carefully put the couch back down, while Taemin straightened up.
"Taemin," Jay said suddenly. "Did you leave my key in the car?"
"Ohh...." Taemin frowned, "Oops."
Jay didn't say anything. He just walked out and into the night-lit yard. He froze, though, upon seeing a woman with long blonde hair and a pretty pink dress at his trunk, with his key stuck in it. Quite concerned she was a victim who was only trying to help some poor guy that had been locked in a trunk, he fast said "Wait." and rushed to her side.
Jessica grabbed his hair, slammed his head down hard onto the trunk, and he was out. She let him fall to the ground. She sighed almost boredly, and turned the key in the trunk, popping it open.
Jonghyun had been beating against the top, but froze, a bit surprised to see of her of all people. She smirked at him and said, "Well I came to rescue Onew." Jonghyun scowled, and started to move, but she slammed the trunk shut before he could get anywhere. "This works too~." she said with a laugh, and pulled the key back from the trunk so she could move to the driver's side.

Jungmo was getting very very frustrated with the lock on the shackle that wrapped around Onew's wrist. He didn't like that it was a vampire that he was trying to free, he didn't like that he had to sit on a bloody bed to do it, but he especially didn't like that it was impossible. "I don't know what to do."
"Maybe they'll find a key." Minho said, sounding concerned.
"Or two." Sungin said from the doorway, carrying a small box with him. He looked at the others and sighed, "Or a thousand." he tilted the box so they could see inside, and the three gave a collective groan at the tons of keys.
Jungmo pulled his walkie talkie from his pocket, "Jaymin, in here. We found some keys."
Taemin stepped into the doorway a second later, and smiled widely. "Hey Noodle."
Onew quickly glared at him, "You are a complete idiot." Then, his look softened. "You look different."
Taemin shrugged and laughed, "Still a bloodwhore though, right?"
The vampire wrinkled his nose, and turned away, looking back to the key that Jungmo was currently trying.
"Where's Jay?" Jungmo asked.
"Come in, Jay." Sungmin said into his walkie talkie.
The silent pause made Jungmo freeze, and Sungmin eventually repeated, "Jay, come in." When once again, there was nothing, Taemin said "He went outside to get his key from the car.."
Jungmo scowled, looking at Sungmin. "Go."
Sungmin rushed out of the room, and Taemin followed with a quickly said "I'll go too."
Jungmo started fast ramming keys into the tiny lock on Onew's wrist, impatient and mad. Onew and Minho shared a look, Minho concerned - Onew annoyed.
