Chapter 49
Melting A Vampire's Heart
“LuHan...?” you call, still shocked that he had sacrificed himself so easily for you. His eyes are slowly drooping close as you hold him and Lay exits the house with Sehun, rushing over to heal his hyung with his powers.
“You guys take YoonMi back first. Tao carry Luhan. He needs to get home so that Lay can heal him fully.”Kris orders.
“B-But--” you start, however Kris cuts you off.
“And hyung I will leave this thing to you.” he says, harshly shoving Hana to Xiumin’s side. Hana scowls, which is all she can do now that someone has stuck a piece of duct-tape over . As if reading your mind, Kris continues, “Don’t worry YoonMi-ah, Luhan will be okay. You can come visit him tomorrow.”
He smiles at you, trying to be assuring. It does little help to your uneasiness and worry though, so you just nod. You should have been the one to take the blow instead of Luhan. And now he’s hurt and it’s all your fault. *I shouldn’t have become friends with EXO in the first place,* you tell yourself guiltily. *all I do is keep getting them into trouble.*
“Noona, let’s go,” Sehun’s voice stops you from beating yourself up momentarily. “Luhan hyung will be alright.” he says. He starts tugging at your wrist and pulls you towards Exo-K.
Following numbly, you turn back and risk one more look at the lifeless Luhan. Tao has him on his back, and some parts of the panda’s shirt are stained with the elder’s blood. The sight makes you nauseous with guilt.
“I’m so sorry...”you whisper. You then look away as your eyesight starts to blur with moisture.
“Hana, you will forever regret what you did today. Especially to Luhan,” Xiumin says, trying hard to hold in his anger. All he wants is to freeze the female vampire into the next century.
Hana just scoffs, an obvious sign that she disagrees.
All of you are walking back to Suho’s mansion, and the EXO members are feeling tired after the fight with B.A.P. The trip back to the mansion is full of silence -- no one dares to speak because they’re afraid that you will start blaming yourself for everything. What they don’t know is that you already are.
You guys are walking because Kai is drained of energy and unable to teleport everyone.
Suho gives you a gentle pat on the back as he tells you to go rest. “And Baekhyun too,” he instructs.
