Ch.14

~Last time~

  “Let’s get this started shall we?” Wade asks, cracking his knuckles.

  “Yes please, let’s begin.” Miri said, copying him before moving to stand in front of him.

~Now~

 Everyone paired off with partners before a timer was started. The rule was that the one with the least scratches and bruises won. One winner for each pair and then winners would pair off until there was only one winner left and the only weapon allowed to be used was a stick.

  “This is a piece of cake.” Wade says, quickly trying to take a swing at Miri.

  “Being cocky will get you nowhere...except in Angela’s pants maybe.” Miri says, easily dodging before using her stick to swipe his feet out from under him.

  “I heard that.” Angela says, glaring at Miri.

  “Duh. It’s not like you’re very far away from her.” HyunAe says, whacking her with the stick.

 Angela made a whining noise when the stick struck her and quickly looked down to inspect the now torn and bleeding skin.

  “That’s not fair.” Angela says, accusing HyunAe of whatever her dumb head could think of.

  “How so bimbo? I hit you with the stick, part of the rules.” HyunAe says, mocking the girl.

  “Unnie, play nice.” I say, quickly blocking a swing from Brandon.

 We all decided to fight...uuhhh...spar...with someone we thought could match our strength. All except Miri, that is, who just wanted to break every bone in Wade’s body with a stick. I was sparing with Brandon, HyunAe was left to spar with Angela only because no one else wanted to, JR was sparing with Cody, Chung Gi against Angel, Jihoon against Carl, Hyun Jung against Angelica, Sooyun against Jessica, Suye against Jean, Hyun Ki against Luke and the list goes on as everyone eventually decided to join in the sparing game/match.

  “Who do you think is going to win?” Brandon asks, trying to swipe at me.

  “I’d say my group.” I say, shrugging my shoulders as I dodge him.

  “I think Wade will bruise your pretty little friend.” he replies, earning him a swift hit in the head with my stick.

  “How so? He already has multiple welts and bruises forming and she barely has a scratch on her.” I say, hitting him again.

 I was right in the end. Jihoon ended up being the victor for today’s ‘sparing match’. Afterwards, we all left to shower and get treated for whatever injuries we had.

  “Where is everyone meeting after this?” JR asks, walking next to me as we headed back to our trailer.

  “I think back in the cafeteria tent.” I grumble, looking at the small bruises all up my right arm.

  “You bruise easily.” JR says, watching me observe my arm.

  “You don’t say?” I ask sarcastically, rolling my eyes at him.

  “Didn’t he also get a good hit on your leg?” JR asks, pointing at my left leg.

  “Yeah and I can feel the bruising there as well.” I grumble again, afraid to look at my leg.

 We walk into the trailer and I move to sit on the bed while JR heads to shower first.

  “This hurts like a ...” I whine, lifting up the bottom of my shorts to inspect the giant bruise on my leg.

  “You should get that checked by Catherine.” JR says, coming into the back.

 “JESUS! I thought you were in the shower already.” I say, jumping before quickly pulling my shorts back in place with a wince.

  “I forgot my towel. Let me see it if you won’t go to see Catherine.” JR says moving closer to me and reaching above my head.

  “And what can you do?” I ask, not really up to showing him my upper thigh...even if it was on the other side.

  “All of these trailers have a first-aide kit.” he says, pulling it down and putting it next to me.

  “Oh...” I mumble, watching him open the kit.

  “You kind of have to lift your shorts so I can see it.” JR says, not looking up from the first-aide kit as he searched for the things he needed.

 I cry mentally before lifting my shorts a little.

  “This is going to hurt. That is a pretty big cut.” JR says, glancing at it before opening the alcohol.

  “No . I’m surprised it didn’t bleed at all.” I say, watching as he moved towards my leg.

  “Just stay calm.” JR says, kneeling in front of me.

 I take a deep breath and before I can exhale, he puts the alcohol on my leg.

  “MOTHER ER!” I screech, grabbing his arm so that I could squeeze something.

  “What happened?” Jihoon yells, quickly getting into the trailer and staring at us in shock.

  “She refused to go see Catherine.” JR says, not looking up from my leg as he continued to put alcohol on it.

  “Why is that?” Jihoon asks, his mouth slightly hanging open.

  “I didn’t think it was this bad...” I whine, basically crushing JR’s shoulder.

  “Okay...” Jihoon mumbles, turning slowly and leaving the trailer.

 I stared after him confused. He left when he could have just sat next to me while JR finished my leg.

  “There. All done.” JR says, taping the gauze and bandage in place.

  “Thanks.” I mumble, looking at my leg.

  “Are you okay?” he asks, putting everything away and storing the first-aide back where he got it.

  “I’m fine JR. You should go shower now.” I say, not looking up from my leg.

 JR looked at me unsure before grabbing his towel.

  “Don’t worry about Jihoon. He’s just confused...majority of the time about his feelings. Right now he’s wondering why you let me fix your leg instead of just going to Catherine.” he says, putting his hand on my head.

 I shake my head, moving his hand to my shoulder.

  “It’s fine Jonghyun.” I reply, standing up slowly so that he has time to move back.

 He nods before moving towards the bathroom.

  “Don’t let it bother you too much.” he says, entering the bathroom and closing the door behind him.

  “That’s not what’s bothering me JR….” I whisper, before leaving to find Jihoon.

 I walk around for a little while before a voice stops me.

  “Who are you looking for Kitty?” Wade asks, causing me to snap.

  “Don’t call me Kitty you jackass.” I hiss, moving to continue on my search.

  “Why not? Isn’t that what everyone else calls you?” he asks, continuing to following me.

  “Not you.” I say, not caring to give him the attention he wants.

  “That’s not very nice of you.” he says, grabbing my arm and turning me towards him.

  “Don’t.Touch.Me” I say, trying to yank my arm away from him.

  “Chaeri?” Jihoon’s voice comes up from behind us.

  “Ah, there are one of your friends.” Wade says, still not releasing my arm.

  “He’s my boyfriend, not my friend.” I say, glaring at him before looking at Jihoon.

  “You already heard her say not to touch her so let her go.” Jihoon says, glaring at Wade with hatred clear in his eyes.

  “And what if I don’t?” Wade asks, his grip getting tighter.

  “Then it’s not only him you’ll have to deal with.” JR says, coming up behind us.

  “I thought you were in there shower?” I ask, trying to pull my arm.

  “I got out and tried to tell you it was your turn, but I couldn’t find you. I thought I said not to walk around here alone?” JR asks, shrugging his shoulders and looking at Wade.

  “So...which one was your boyfriend again?” Wade asks, a grin etched on his face.

  “That would be me. It’d be best to keep that in mind.” Jihoon says still glaring at Wade, but it was obvious that Wade wasn’t the only person he was saying that to.

  “Riri? What’s going on here?” Chung Gi asks, coming out of the tent we were near.

  “Oh there is a third one?” Wade asks, perking up at Chung Gi’s entrance.

  “That’s her brother you sicko.” JR says, shaking his head.

 I was quickly getting irritated over the fact that everyone seemed so calm like they were having a debate about politics.

  “This is a nice conversation and all...but...CAN YOU LET ME THE GO?!” I scream, successfully yanking my arm away from Wade.

  “Awe...this was getting fun.” Wade says, making a fake pouting face.

  “Then hold one of them.” I spit, quickly walking away from the area and back to my trailer.

 I reached it and quickly locked myself inside so no one could bother me. When JR made the kind observation on me bruising fast he wasn’t wrong. A hand print like bruise was starting to form where Wade had been squeezing.

  “Chaeri? Can you let me in?” Jihoon’s voice broke through the door.

  “I want to talk to you. Chung Gi and JR are still
  “What do you want?” I ask, not moving to unlock the door.Wade.” he says, standing outside the door.with

  “You don’t want to talk Jihoon. You want to question why JR was the one bandaging up my leg. You want to get mad at me for walking outside alone even though I was looking for you. God...you would think by now that you would understand that I have no intention of being with JR. He’s nice and all, but I would never choose him over you.” I say, tears getting ready to flow from my eyes.

 ‘Traitors...’ I think, cursing at my tears.

  “Then why not come to me...or Jeonghan...or go to Catherine?” he accuses, leaning against the door.

  “I didn’t even want him to do it. I was looking at it when he came out of the bathroom to get his damn towel. I can handle a damn cut by myself.” I grumble, unlocking the trailer door before walking to the bed.

 It took Jihoon a second to come into the trailer and sit next to me.

  “You could have told him not to.” Jihoon says, not looking at me.

  “I didn’t want to argue with anyone Jihoon. I wanted to shower, deal with the cut, then go to the cafeteria tent and eat, and then come back here so that I can sleep.” I say, glaring at the wall in front of me.

  “So that you can sleep next to JR again..” Jihoon whispers, but I still hear it.

  “Sleep next to him? He sleeps on the couch in the front. I’ve only slept next to him once and that was the first night we were out of the container and you were in the hospital tent. Are you really so insecure that you would think that I would sleep next to JR every night while you are in a coma? If so than just leave my trailer.” I say, my tears betraying me again.

  “What will happen if I leave the trailer?” he asks, his voice still in a whisper and I know he is close to tears as well.

  “I don’t know Jihoon. Maybe it would be best if we end this...whatever it is. If you really think i’m not going to be faithful to you than just leave.” I say, turning to look at him once before he gets up and leaves the trailer.

 ‘Stupid...’ I think, but it was me that was stupid, not Jihoon.
