The Dark Chocolate Escape

Description

 "I want to live a life where worries and troubles don't exist."

 "I want to live a life where perfection doesn't control my every move."

 "I want to live a life where I can just be free."

 

Overly-controlling parents. A not-so-perfect boyfriend. The weight of everyone's expectations, family, friends, and teachers alike, burdening your shoulders. Leading the life of a perfect girlfriend, a perfect student, and a perfect daughter is not as easy as people think it is. In fact, it's slowly driving Choi Sooyun more and more over the edge, bringing her closer to the point where she just wants to let everything go and scream.

 

"Give me an escape I can use. Drugs. Alcohol. Anything. Just something that will make me forget and feel alive again."

 

And then she meets Infinite, the biggest drug dealing gang in all of Seoul. Upon their first meeting, Sooyun doesn't hesitate to strike a deal with them, offering to exchange stacks of crisp green bills for a tiny bag of ecstasy. It's a good bargain, right? Not according to their mysterious member L, who has a soul like a shrouded canvas and keeps refusing her pleas for help.



"Drugs are like dark chocolate. You think it's sweet at first and savor the taste, but as it slowly melts in your mouth, you realize too late how bitter it can really be."

Foreword

"I never wanted any of this. I never wanted a life controlled by demanding parents, a cheating bastard of a boyfriend, or the need to do every little thing perfectly. What I want is a way to end this all. To get away from it. Just give me an escape from reality."

 

He stared at me, unblinking with those cold, glaring eyes. When he spoke at last, his words were like ice, cutting through the still of the air with the sharpness of a razor-edged blade.

 

"You want an escape from reality? You mean the quickest and most crudest way out there is possible?" He gestured fiercely at the little baggies lying in front of him, and I couldn't help but flinch at the movement. Where had the quiet and reserved boy who'd saved me just earlier that day disappeared to?

 

He continued in the same angry voice, raw emotion raging across the blank expression he'd worn before. "This is probably the first time you've ever felt low enough to sink to this level of desperation, isn't it? An innocent girl like you, what would you know... You think that getting high today will help you forget your problems for the rest of your life? Well, let me tell you something.

 

"This is never ending. Once you get hooked into the world of drugs and addiction, you can never go back."

This story is a fanfic that I created completely on my own. I do not own Infinite, its members, or anything other than this story. Any similarities between this and another story are pure coincidences.

I will be the first to upvote this story, just because I'm incredibly amazed by the amount of detail you put into this story. And the way you craft each and every line into not just a sentence, but an actual art... Now that's just... wow.

I applaud you, because yours is the first enjoyable story I've read through in ages. xD

Chapter 17: Yay!! An update... I've missed this fic so much.

The whole time Himchan was talking I was thinking why Sooyun didn't punch him. Then I read the bit where she wished she did and she finally burst out and I was like "Yay!! You rule!!" But I still kind of wish she had punched him ^^ I like my violence.

I really, really hope their friendship doesn't break. Sungyeol and Sooyun clearly need each other a lot and just... I don't want another friendship to break.

Dongwoo's sweet. I could really see him doing that, trying to protect/keep her safe. I wonder why they all became gang members... If there is someone higher up who's the real threat.

Chapter 17: And the impending bomb has exploded! Sooyun has finally spoken out against Himchan! I'm happy for her however I hate the circumstance in which made her do it. :( Poor girl. And Jesus, I swear no one loves Kim Himchan more than Kim Himchan--even in real life LOOL ((but I still love him -INSERT BABY FEELZ HERE-)).

And I can totally imagine Dongwoo acting that way to Sooyun... Perhaps it's because I'm so used to him saying that he plays the maternal role in Infinite. LOL.

Either way, I'm wondering if Sungyeol even came to school in the first place. And I'm a bit surprised that Yeol hasn't tried any of what he's dealt yet--it's typical of those with his "profession". Meh, that's just me.

Now I'm off to go type my essay on the Industrial Revolution due tomorrow which was assigned weeks ago but I was slacking terribly on! WOO! CHILD LABOR AND HORRIBLE WORKING CONDITIONS IN MID-19TH CENTURY ENGLAND AYYYEEEE~~ ((just kidding. pls save me))
