Yuri POV

One hundred seventy-two missed calls and two hundred ten messages from my beloved Stephanie Miyoung Hwang. Hmm... My Tiffany seems to really love me so much...

Tiffany: Where the hell are you guys?! Tiffany: Yah! Yuri-yah! Tiffany: Please answer. Please. Tiffany: Dad, Uncle Vincent and Tao are all here and also don't have a clue where you guys are! Tiffany: Jessica will freak out again if she finds out about this! Tiffany: I really swear if you don't answer me right now, I will kill you, Yuri! Tiff----

Wait. What is freaking going on?

I sat up. Blinked thrice to make my vision clearer.

WHAT THE HECK?!

I am on a king-size bed of a hotel suite, topless, and just outside the room is Sooyoung lying on the floor lifelessly with two half- girls on his side. There were other guys in the suite as I noticed when I walked around. These guys were the assigned police officers to guard Taeyeon. And I guess, they also passed out and were drunk as hell too, the same as us. There is something more unusual, though...

 

Yoong and Taeyeon are both gone!!!

 

I quickly rushed towards Sooyoung and woke him up. "Dude! You have to ing get up! Dude!" I shouted as I continuously nudged him.

"Hmmm. Five more minutes..." he mumbled.

"We don't have five more minutes! It's already---!" Holy . I looked at my phone and just noticed the time. It's already 12 o'clock: Exactly three and half hours before the wedding!

"Sooyoung! Sooyoung!" I pulled him out by his shirt.

"Yah." he quickly rubbed his face with his hand. "Don't sprinkle water on me."

"It's not exactly err water but--- wake up! Taeyeon and Yoong are both gone!"

With that, though, his eyes widened then immediately stood. "What happened?!"

"I don't know, man!"

Then, we both realized and said simultaneously, "Uncle Jae!"

 

** FLASHBACK **

 

Uncle Jaejoong and Uncle Vincent approached us in the glasshouse. We thought they were just going to join us with our drinking but it turned out, they had a surprise for us.

Uncle Jaejoong uttered, "Sooyoung, I know I kind of promised you that strippers are allowed to be here at the manor. Yeah, it's my fault that I didn't ask Elise's approval about it. But I wanna make it up to all of you."

"Really, Sir Henry?! You're allowing strippers here now?!" Sooyoung asked in complete excitement.

"Still, no. Not in anyone else's place either."

"How are you gonna makeup to us, then?" he asked in disappointment.

"Vincent-hyung and I had come up with a plan." Then, he smirked at us. "Stripper Bus."

"Err-- Sir Henry?" Taeyeon said. "Have you forgotten I am sort of not allowed to be outside?"

"But we are not breaking rules here. We are just going to 'transfer' you." he responded then winked.

Uncle Vincent then added, "And when we say transfer, I see no rules there for how long should it take." Then, he winked at Taeng too.

Yup. That drew so much excitement for the guys.

"YES!" "FINALLY!!!" "The curse of lousy bachelor parties is over!"

Uncle Jae cheered, "What are we waiting for?! Let's go!"

 

** END OF FLASHBACK **

 

"Wow." Sooyoung mumbled then thought thoroughly, "It seemed to be a really long night of fun and party." He looked at me enthusiastically, "We should do this at your bachelor party too, Yul."

"Really? I don't want to be freaking late for my wedding, okay. So, never!"

His eyes totally widened acting as if he lost his passport right on the boarding gate, "Holy shiii-!"

I quickly covered his mouth with my hand, "Calm down, Soo. We still got time so don't ing waste it on your stupid reactions again."

He swatted my hand away. Then, he tried to calm himself down. "Okay... Okay... don't panic..." Then, he looked at me and asked, "What time is it?"

"12 o'clock."

"12 o'-ing clock?!" And he panicked again. "We only have three and half hours left!" Then, he looked around while panicking, "Where the hell are we, anyway?!"

I looked at the maps app on my phone to check, "We are in freaking Busan."

"How could this happen, Yul?! Arrrrghhhh!" He started to pull his hair out from both sides.

"Yah. Don't panic. I know this is really the time to go hysterical but we need to calm ourselves and think where the hell Taeyeon and Yoong are."

"OH MY ING SHIIIIITTTTTTTTTT!!!!!" And yes. He started to panic even more.

I sighed. This is hopeless.

I decided to wake up the two police officers and unfortunately, they started to go crazily in a panic too. Actually, they were worse than how Sooyoung did. Well, at least they have more reason to do so. They will get jailed for not guarding Taeyeon too well. Worse, they even partied with us.

"Okay, you three. Stop this stupid . Let's all split up to search for the two."

"Split up?! We are down to three and a half hours left! There's no way we can find them!" Sooyoung shouted back.

"No. It's just freaking three hours left now, Soo! And that is because you three are acting like crazy! Just freaking calm down!" Then, they all took a deep breath and somehow calmed a bit. I then continued, "Okay. You three, search for Taeyeon. I will search for Yoong. I already searched here inside the suite while you guys are panicking so get the hell out of here and search the whole place."

"Aye! Aye!" they all shouted then left.

I then dialed Yoong's phone number afterwards. After four rings, he picked up. "Yoong!" I shouted in so much relief. "Where the hell are you?!"

"Somewhere." he calmly said.

"The ! What do you mean somewhere?!"

"I don't know, hyung. I don't know..."

"What do you mean---?!" Aiiishhh. There's no point scrutinizing him right now. I have to calm down. I took a deep breath and ask, "Yoong, you are going to the wedding, right?"

"I don't know, hyung. I don't know..."

Yuri. Ignore. Calm down. Ask again.

"Yoong. I am serious. You are going, okay?"

"..."

"Jessica will surely get mad at you if you will not go."

He laughed bitterly, a bit sounding sarcastic, "Yeah, she has all the right to get mad at me."

"Yoong. I am expecting you to be there. At least, for me."

"Why? Is it you who she's marrying?"

He's really testing my temper. Aigoo...

"Yoong. Be there or else I will kill you."

"Consider it double dead. I am already dead now." and he hung up.

Holy freaking fudge. This guy is really getting on my nerves.

Suddenly, my girlfriend started calling me again. No. No. I don't want to tell her the bad news yet.

After it stopped ringing, I got a message from her.

Tiffany: Why aren't you answering? I am worried sick now. Yuri, please do answer you are okay and you guys WILL MAKE IT TO THE WEDDING. I swear I don't want to tell Sica such bad news right now. I don't want to be the receiver of her hell mode, alright?

I am sorry, love. I really just can't answer now. Not until we get to find Taeng. sigh

I quickly called Sooyoung and asked for their whereabouts. He told me to proceed immediately to the park at the back of the hotel. I rushed and found them standing in front of a very tall tree while staring above.

"What the hell is this? Why are you guys just standing here and not looking for Taeyeon?!" I asked as I got closer to them.

Sooyoung just pointed at the branches of the tree above. Apparently, Taeyeon was there, almost at the peak of it, sleeping soundly while wrapped like a cocoon in a white fleece sheet.

"How on Earth did that happen?" I mumbled as I stared.

Sooyoung responded blankly, "I don't freaking have a clue, man..."

"Have you tried waking him up?"

"Wanna risk waking him up? We both know how Taeyeon is when he's panicking. And if he panics, he'll definitely fall from there."

One of the police officers added, "We already called for help from the nearest fire station here. Hope they'll come any minute now."

"We cannot afford a minute now, though. Let's just take the risk."

Sooyoung looked at me in so much disbelief. "Are you freaking serious?!"

"Soo, it won't be really a minute, alright? The firetruck will still have to set up the ladder and stuff, analyze the situation, etcetera, etcetera. Let's just catch him."

"My plan is better than carrying him back to Seoul DEAD!"

"Dead or alive, he will also be dead if we won't get to make it in time!"

"Whoa, whoa, whoa!" one of the police officers shouted. "He's waking up!"

"Ugghhh-
