Key pov

I can't believe I'm cutting vegetables. My cooking skills are much better but he put me on vegetable work. I don't even like half of these. How dare he put me here.

"Yay, you're cutting the tomato wrong" How dare he say that I'm doing this wrong. I'm a master at it.

"I'm not cutting it wrong," I said with a pout but what's the reason if he can't see. I slowly turned around to look at him. I know he can't resist my pout. I was meet by his face just a couple of inches away from mine. I could feel how my cheeks heated up. My plan failed. I wanted to turn back to the vegetable but his face was too attractive. I just wanted to put my arms around his neck and kiss his soft lips but I had to hold back. I can't like him.

"You are for this dish" then he just turned away and continued with the main thing. I had no clue what he was doing he refused to tell me. If he was going to say I did it wrong then he should tell me how to do it. Why is he so confusing?

"Then how am I supposed to cut it" I just stared at the stupid vegetables. I had no clue what to do with them now.

"Like this" He whispered next in my ear. It did send chills down my spine again.I could feel how he moved extremely close to me. He put his arms around me and took the knife. Started cutting the tomato in a different way. He did it so easily. I  just watched in awe. I was so lost that I didn't even realize he stopped cutting. He embraced me in a big hug, If it would have been anyone else I would have kicked them but with Onew, I felt safe. I could feel how he rested his head on my shoulder.

"You know...." Beep, beep.

"Oh, they're here" Wait that's it. He's not going to tell me seriously he's just going to leave not even finishing the sentence. Why does he have to be so confusing, He confuses me. I don't even know what to think anymore.

"I have to open for them want to come with" Was he seriously just asking that. He just pretended like wasn't going to say anything earlier. I didn't even know what to do,

"What about dinner" Great that was the only thing my stupid mind could say. I couldn't even say what I wanted to.

"It was finished long ago" What did he just say. Then what had I done the last 30 minutes? Did I just cut them for the sake of having fun? I DID NOT HAVE FUN.

"Then what did I just do the last 30 minutes" I tried so hard to not sound angry.

"You were cutting vegetables," He said with his stupid grin. Was he serious, I really hoped for his sake that he wasn't. This time he wasn't going to get away easily.

"But they weren't necessary" With each word I took a step closer to him and he took one step further away.

"Of course they were, for the salad" He better run or I will murder him. Nobody tells me what to especially if it isn't necessary.

"Then I didn't have to cut them differently"  I was so close to him when he opened the door and dashed out. Oh no, you won't get away so easily. I ran after him but stopped as soon as we got out from the living room. We were in a big hall with 2 big stairs that lead to where I stood. Onew was at the bottom of them getting closer to the grand door. On both side of me where 2 big ways with doors that I think lead to different rooms. Now I understood. We came from this way but the way Onew ran out was a different one. Like a back door. and that door leads to the labyrinth hallway where I got lost. If we had gone out this way then I wouldn't have gotten lost and I would have found the living room much easier. I wondered why we ran out the other way and not this one. I snapped back to reality when the door opened and Jonghyun, Minho, and Taemin entered. What are they doing here but still it feels nice to know that they care, For once I actually felt loved, I saw how Onew said something to Jonghyun and bur he just laughed. I wasn't far away but I was too far away to hear anything. I should have gotten closer.

Taemin pov

This is the most awkward car ride I have experienced. Why didn't I go with Jonghyun. We haven't said anything to each other for like 20 minutes. I don't even know what to say. Maybe he hates me but then why did he insist I ride with him. This was so confusing. I was sure that I liked him but not how much, but I know he won't like me. How can a guy like him even like me at all. Of all people it had to be him that I was stuck in a car with. I still remembered what happened in the infirmary. It was so fresh in my mind and I just didn't know what to do. I really want to tell Key what happened but I haven't had a chance yet. I was so embarrassed to face Minho, how can I explain why I ran away. But why did he come to my rescue, it had nothing to do with him so why. He already has someone he likes, shouldn't he try to protect that person instead of me.Why is he doing this to me, why is he playing with my heart. It hurts, almost more than my bruise on the stomach. I had almost forgotten about the stomach pain, but suddenly a wave of pain came. I couldn't help but let out a small squeal. Great, I just made the situation even more awkward.

"You okay" The first word that was said in this car. His voice was sweet and soft. He sounded so caring and I just can't understand why. As far as I know, he doesn't even care about me he already has someone he likes. Someone he cares about, Why would he even care about me, I'm a no one. Just a nerd.

"I'm fine" I had to try so hard to just get the words out from my mouth. It didn't even sound how I wanted it to. My voice was weak, dry and it almost cracked.  I wanted to sound secure, strong, not like some weak boy who couldn't even take a punch. Why was nothing going the way I wanted it too.

"Don't worry we're almost there. I'm pretty sure were we're going now. He is a good doctor" He sounded so caring, so trustable like nothing could go wrong and I couldn't help but to believe him. I could see a soft smile on his lips. So I wished he could smile like that for me. Like I was something to be proud of. I just wanted that from him. But I knew that was too much to ask for. Just asking for him to look at me happily is too much to ask for. But I can always wish right.

"We're here" I looked out the window and saw a big garden. It was like my whole neighborhood block. It was huge. Fountains, flowers everywhere. A big house came into the picture. And I mean big. It was huge. It was like 10 times my own house. It had a big balcony with lots of pretty flowers. The house had a lot of different decorations that were in gold. They glowed towards the white house. I could make out some dragons in decorations. it was such a beautiful sight.  It felt like I were in a fairytale castle. Everything was so unreal. I wondered who lived here.

"Do you like what you see"

"mmh" I mentally slapped myself, I sounded like an idiot. Who answers like that.

"Just you wait until you see who lives here" He somehow sounded a little cocky but I liked it. But was this Jonghyun's  house or is it someone I haven't met. why can't he just say who it is. He parked the car under some nice maple trees next to like 10 different race cars. Whoever lives here must be crazy rich. Ine of the cars looked strangely familiar I wondered if I had seen it before. Jonghyun had parked next to us. I slowly got out of the car when a new wave of pain hit me. Faster than I could react Minho was next to me holding me gently so I couldn't fall. One part of me was so grateful while the other one wanted to protest saying I could do it myself. That I didn't need anyone's help. Especially someone who liked someone else. But I let him hold me.

"Yay, you 2 lovebird do you wanna get inside or not"

"Of course, why don't you show the way" Minho and Jonghyun were at it again. Quarreling like 2 children. I was just extremely curious about who lived here and excited to see Key. I really hope he is fine. I started walking towards the way I thought was right. BUt Minho wouldn't let me. He held me tighter but still gently so it didn't hurt. But I wanted to go. Without even knowing I started pouting.

"Stop pouting. I won't let you go by yourself and the risk to get lost at this place is really high" Minho said without even looking at me. I mentally slapped myself for pouting. I wasn't a child for god sake. How could I do that and It wasn't his problem if I got lost. So he could let me go, or at least he didn't need to hold me.

"It's this way follow me," Jonghyun said with a kind if creepy smile. I really don't like that smile. We followed him until we got to a small staircase that leads up to the biggest door I had seen in my life.Jonghyun walked up and tried to open the door.

"That mmhmm, he locked the door" I appreciated that he tried to avoid a bad word but it just sounded funny with his muffled sounds in the middle of the sentence.

" I told you should have texted him earlier"

"Oh shut up, you could have done it yourself and usually he doesn't lock the door"

"That usually isn't today at least" It actually is quite fun listening to them quarreling. They continued to bicker for like ten minutes,

"Why isn't he coming"

"Maybe you scared him away with your text"

"HaHa, very funny" Jonghyun started knocking on the door like a madman. I didn't know what difference that would make. This place is huge like a castle so I doubt they would hear it if they weren't next to the door. 

"Yay, I know you're in there so open up" He put his ear to the door and magically it opened. Jonghyun almost fell in. In the door stood Onew with a friendly smile.

"What took you so long"

"Jonghyun help me, he's trying to kill me" Onew acted like a little child. It was actually a quite rare side of him. We stepped into a big room it was like 3 times bigger than my living room. Jonghyun started laughing at Onew.

" I doubt he is" I looked around and Found Key standing between the 2 stairs. He looked like a king up there. He looked really pissed. I guess Onew wasn't joking.

"What did you do" strangely enough it was Minho who cracked the question.

"I made him cut vegetables," He said behind Jonghyun's back.Why would he be so mad about vegetables?

"Come on he can't possibly be mad about cutting some vegetables" Minho seems to think like me. I can't really see a reason why Key would be mad about cutting vegetables.

"He thinks they are unnecessary" Okay maybe I also would have been a little mad if someone made me cut vegetables, the wasn't needed. I tried to walk to Key. I really wanted to ask if he was okay. I still can't get the image of him fainting out from my head. But the first step sent a pain through my whole body. My legs almost gave in but faster than lightning Minho was next to me. He held me in place. I would probably have fallen if it wasn't for him.

"Whats wrong" I could hear how all of the playfulness in Onew voice disappeared. He was dead serious. It was almost frightening,

"He got hurt earlier" Somehow I was a little thankful that Jonghyun didn't tell the whole story. I guess Key saw how the atmosphere became much more serious because he came running down the stairs at lightning speed. I saw how his expression had changed to a concerned, worried one instead of an angry one. Did it look that bad.

"What happened. Taemin are you okay. Onew shouldn't we do anything" It surprised me how he only asked Onew for help. There were 2 more guys who also could help but he just asked Onew. I guess he is starting to warm up to him. I wish it was the same for me and Minho but that is just a dream.

"You shouldn't overwork yourself, and he will be fine he just got a little hurt" I was sure that Onew knew that it was more to it than I just got hurt. Somehow it scared me a little. Who knows what he might do, after all, he was the one who beat up JB and his gang earlier and they hadn't even touched Key then.

" Minho, follow me and we'll fix it," He said it with a kind smile but I could see some kind of hurt behind it. I wondered what it was and why did he ask Minho. I was the one who was hurt.

"Ah, give me a warning next time" Did he seriously just pick me up in bridal style again. I can walk perfectly on my own but it doesn't look like anyone is planning to let me.

"Sure I will" he let out a soft chuckle. Not that Minho will do it again, he already has someone he likes.I will save this moment in my heart. It felt so comfortable to be in his arms like I belonged there. I didn't want him to let me go but our stop arrived way too fast. He put me down on a bed.

"What are you going to do" It was Key who asked. I didn't know he cared so much, To be honest, I was actually a little scared. I had no clue what they were going to do and I don't really now the either. We were in a room that looked scary alike a hospital room. It was all white. I saw how Onew opened a white cabinet and too out all sort of things. There were some pills. something I think is some kind of cream, bandage, and even band-aids. What was he going to do with all these.

"I will make sure he heals and take away some of his pain," Onew said without even looking at us, he was busy reading on all the packages. This somehow creeped me out. Was he going to kill me. Had I got myself involved in some illegal business that I didn't know existed. I must admit they are hella good at acting. Goodbye, my life. I liked it as long as I could.

"Take off your shirt"

"Huh" did Minho just ask me to take fo my shirt.

"Don't worry we won't do anything bad to you but He needs to check your wound?" Jonghyun said with a little chuckle, I did as I was told just waiting for the bad things to happen.

"Key you can take a seat, you don't need to stand there the whole time," Onew said without even looking at us. He was busy putting different things on a rolling tray. I realized everybody was already sitting except Key, He slowly took a seat next to Jonghyun. Onew walked over to me with the tray. It was so many things on it that it scared me. Onew checked my stomach and a sour expression came on.

"What exactly happened. This isn't some kind of bruise you get from tripping" He mumbled to himself but I heard him. How could he know the difference, had he treated many people before.

" You have to tell me if it hurts too much" I nodded in response. His hand slowly touched the big bruise on my stomach, it was such a gentle touch that it couldn't hurt. I saw that both Key and Minho had a really sour expression. Key almost looked mad. It looked like he could just drag Onew away from me any second. Onew gently started to put a little pressure on different places of the bruise. It hurt a little but not too much until he hit a special place.

"Oh" I could feel how tears started to well up. It really hurt and it was just a light touch.

"Did it hurt a lot there" I nodded in response. If would have opened my mouth tears would have poured out. Onew took out a cream and gently put it on the spot where it hurt the most. It was a nice cooling sensation and I could feel how it hurt less. He took out the bandage and gently wrapped it around my bruise. I could see how Key almost started pouting. It was really obvious he was sulking but for what reason. Onew gave me some pills and a glass of water.

"They are pain relievers they will make it hurt less. Drink them and we're done" he said with a smile. I did as he said. They pills tasted horrible. I put my shirt back on. I really didn't want to walk around this house without even having a shirt on. I still didn't know whose house it was.

" Whose house it is?"

"Onew, what do you say about going to the amusement park tomorrow?" It sounded like a good idea I loved amusement parks and did he just say this gigantic house is Onews. He said it like it wasn't a big deal.

"That sounds good but we will have to see how they are tomorrow first" Way to kill the fun Onew.

"Okay, I have to make a call first, be right back Jonghyun said and disappeared out the door. I wondered who he had to call.

Nobodys POV

Jonghyun walked out from the room and went into a smaller one. He dialed the number to a person. The other person picked it up fast.

"I need your help"

"With what" a voice from the other side of the line said. It was something between nice and cold voice.

"We need to put them together. We can't let them escape anymore"

"Okay, we'll help" Jonghyun gave them all the necessary details that were needed. They came up with the perfect plan.

"I'll text you tomorrow"

"Best for you this works," The man on the other line said. then he hung up, Jonghyun walked out from the room and back to the others like nothing had happened.

"Jonghyun are you finished" A smiling Onew greeted him oblivious to everything that Jonghyun had planned.

"Of course or else I wouldn't be here" and so on went the night and morning.

Authors note: Things are starting to calm down so I can finally write again. I should be able to update every week now:)

Can you guess who Jonghyun was talking to and what his plan is ;)

See you next week. Hope you liked the chapter
