It's All Your Fault
It's A Love/Hate Relationship
The next day, Ji Eun and I went to EXO’s dorm to pick up the tickets. We rang the bell and waited for someone to open the door. After hearing some ruckus on the other side, the door finally swung open and we came face to face with a cranky Kris.
I immediately cringed and backed up from the door. He looked the both of us up and down before speaking in a cold voice. “What do you two want?”
“We’re here to pick up the tickets for your showcase. Chanyeol said that we could come over.” Ji Eun replied, smiling brightly. It’s amazing how much of a fan she was, did she not see how intimidating Kris was?
“I’m not sure where he put them...why don’t you guys come in for a bit and we’ll sort it out from there?” Obediently, we followed him inside and closed the door behind us. All the guys were walking around like zombies as they prepared to go to bed. A few of them greeted us, but not many, they must have been tired from a long day of rehearsals.
“Chanyeol is inside the washroom at the moment. Ji Eun, why don’t you wait here for him to come out?” He suggested. Ji Eun nodded enthusiastically. Kris then turned to me and gave me a menacing glare. I felt shivers run down my spine as his gaze bore into mine.
“You. I need to have a talk with you.”

He led me all the way down outside the building and around the corner where no one else was. I followed without a word and all I could think about was “Did I do something wrong?”
When we finally reached the destination, he turned around and sent me the same intimidating look. I immediately turned my attention to the floor beneath me as I waited for him to begin scolding me for whatever I had done wrong.
“You know I don’t like you right?” I flinched at how direct his words were and nodded in understanding.
“Do you know why?” I shook my head slowly and took a small glimpse up at him. He had one hand in his hair, gripping it as if he was holding in his frustration. He looked down and me and I turned my gaze back to the floor again.
“Park Yoonae, do you have any idea what you did to my hyung?”
“Huh?” I couldn’t help but let out a confused squeak.
He towered over me and I took a few steps back in fear. “You. Ruined. Luhan. Hyung.”
My eyes widened as I took in his words. ‘But I didn’t, I swear, it was for his sake...’ I couldn’t get my words out though, instead, he took over the silence.
“Five days! For five days in a row after he last saw you, he had a high fever. We tried to get him to eat but he wouldn’t eat. We told him to rest but he wouldn’t sleep. Hell, he wouldn’t do anything but practice! For a full 10 days, he locked himself in the practice room and did nothing but sing and dance.” He glared at me.
“Every night after that, he would shake and cry in his sleep. He kept saying your name over and over. What’s so special about you? I don’t know. All I know is that you’re causing him pain.” He got off the wall and stood in front of me, gradually closing the distance between us.
“Yoonae. Yoonae. EVERYTHING IS ABOUT PARK YOONAE! He begged me to give you a chance the first time I met you. I gave you that chance because I could see how much he liked you. I thought you felt the same way too. I ing gave you that chance but in less than 24 hours, you took everything away from him!”
My back hit the wall and tears were fully streaming down my face by then. I was scared. I was scared of him. ‘I didn’t mean to. I never thought it would end up like this. I swear, I would never hurt him.’ I tried to tell him but I just couldn’t get the words out. All I could do was cower backwards and cry.
“I looked over Luhan since the first day he came to this company. I lived with him, ate with him, trained with him but NEVER had I seen him so lifeless before. All he knows now is practicing and Yoonae. Park Yoonae! He’s in the hospital now thanks to you. He overworked himself and could barely stand. The doctor has him hospitalized until who knows when. All thanks to you Yoonae, all thanks to you.”
I couldn’t stand anymore and crouched with my head buried in my arms and knees. ‘Someone make this stop. I’m sorry. I’m really sorry. Luhan....please....’
“Hyung! What are you doing out here?” I didn’t even look up to see who it was but thankfully, it was over.
“Jongin-ah, I was just about to go in.” I shook even more when I felt him bend down next to me and whispered in my ear, “Park Yoonae, I swear to God, you better stay away from my Luhan-hyung. I don’t want you near any of my members again.”
With that, he walked off. Still though, I didn’t get up and continued sobbing in my position until a presence came over me.
“Oh dear, Kris managed to get little miss hater to cry? I wonder how he did that.” I didn’t even answer him as I shivered at the sound of his name. Kris...
“Come here.” Suddenly I felt myself being pulled onto my bottom but for some reason, it didn’t hurt. I found myself being tucked securely between his legs with his arms wrapped around my body as I cried. I turned my body slightly so that I could rest my head comfortably against his chest. My tears must have been soaking his shirt right now, but he didn’t make a move to push me away, instead, he held me against him and rubbed my arm soothingly.
“Why are you doing this for me?” I asked him between sniffles after I had finally calmed down. There was a long silence that made me think that maybe he didn’t hear me properly. He sighed.
“Just shut up and take it as a gift alright?” He said obviously embarrassed I laughed lightly in my head. “Besides, it’s just to show you that I’m not always a jerk. I can be nice sometimes too.”
I couldn’t help but grin. For some reason, although I was still scared, his warmth made me feel safe.
“I know.” I told him before closing my eyes. “Thank you.”
He chuckled and replied jokingly, “Cry baby.”
I smiled and relaxed in his arms before letting sleep take over for the night.
