Maybe I sounded kinda harsh but I really wasn't trying to. I was now dragging a scared and guilty Chenle down the corridor, trying to find an empty room to try and explain a few stuff.
Finally I found a vacant room as I pushed the door open, pulling Chenle in. I let go of his hand and was about to explain but I heard sniffles.
"Lele! Wait I-"
"Save it for later hyung. I'm sorry for troubling you. If you don't mind, I'd like to leave now. I had some matters to take care of. And tell your two boyfriends it was nice meeting them. Hope you have a good evening."
I tried speaking but the latter walked past me, slamming the door close on his way out. I was about to turn and walk after him but instead I felt someone run right into me. The impact made me fall backwards, the person falling on me in the process.
"Oh my god! I'm soooo sorry hyung!! I saw Chenle and you get in here so I just barged in... where is he?"
I sat up, staring at my cousin in pure confusion. Logically speaking, if Chenle barged out the door and Jisung collided into me barely a minute later, they should've seen each other?
"But he just walked out right now..."
Jisung just stared at me.
"What."
I was about to speak but the door creaking open caught the both of our attention as we turned to look over.
A breathless Jaemin stood there, hands resting in his knee and his face red.
"We. Need. To. Go. Evacuate. Fire."
It took me a second to comprehend what Nana said but the distant sound of the fire alarm going off and the water droplets from the sprinklers starting to soaking our expensive suits confirmed everything.
I just looked at them as I grabbed my cousin's and dear boyfriend's hands running out of the room.
Jisung halted suddenly though, almost making me fall.
"Jisung! We need to-"
"What about Chenle?"
Now that he said that I realized Chenle wasn't here and no one out of the three of us knew where he went. But, we had to go now. I could smell smoke and that was not safe.
"Chenle's smart. He'll be okay Jisungie~ If we don't leave now we're gonna be stuck."
Jisung looked hesitant to move but slowly nodded. Taking that as a yes, I took off, dragging them along to safety only for Jisung to run the opposite way.
Jaemin was the first to yell out but I held him back.
"YA! PARK JISUNG! WHERE THE FUCK ARE YOU- JENO YOU'RE COUSIN—"
I shushed him with a peck on his lips and forehead as I did the only rational thing there was to do. I picked him up, throwing him over my shoulder as I just ran, ignoring his complaints and the random screams I heard down the corridors.
"JENO HYUNG!"
