unmendable ⍟ jaemin

" okay for real though? " renjun projected the laptop screen for the other dream members and dino, " this is their base? "

" apparently, " y/n muttered, double checking the street name next to the all famous night club, " we aren't even sure about how reliable kiha is. "

nine of them- including mark who isn't involved in their mission- were gathered around the meeting table that consisted of different tables linked together to make it so long that it could fit around sixty people if they ever tried, with renjun at the head of the table.

" okay but i think we should check first before doing anything, " jeno suggested, " we need to quickly get this out of the way before taeyong rages at us. "

" please let me do at least something, " chenle half begs, " ive not even been put on missions to snipe and its boringgg. "

" at least there isnt more people in the same position as you okay, " haechan hit chenle on the head somewhat gently, " but okay we'll let you have your part. "

❤️

" jaemin? "

a gentle touch caused him to jump, he glanced around the faces of concern that felt almost like strangers, his lungs felt way smaller than it was before and a feeling jaemin couldn't quite describe surging through his veins.

" sorry, i- " jaemin paused, his seat now quite a distance away from him, palms flat on the table while he tried to regulate his breathing, " i need some time. "
and he was gone within a second.

" jaemin- "

" i'd give him some time if i were you, " jeno commented calmly, though worry displayed on his face.

everyone stared, confused and worried for their gang member.

" he'll tell you when he's ready, " jeno reassured, though he really wasn't too sure himself, " we'll just have to focus on the mission right now. "

they left the room one by one, leaving y/n alone in the large room, thoughts flooding her mind that seemed to all individually weigh her down.

💔

the trip to jaemin's room wasn't exactly wasted. she sat on his bed for around an hour or so, unsure of what to do or say if jaemin returns to his room.

she sat there, like a dog awaiting for its owner's return.

she flinched once the door knob turned and the door swung open, revealing a tired out and sweaty jaemin. the strands of hair sticking together due to adhesion and his white shirt coming off as translucent due to the amount of sweat he produced.

y/n felt her heart start racing, with the fluttery feeling in her stomach while the world only seemed to contained to two of them.

" jaemin- "

hes eyes briefly met hers upon hearing her gentle call of his name, he felt his fingertips turn cold. jaemin looked like someone covered him in white wash, even his lips went kind of pale, with a single step forward, he blacked out.

when he came to, he was lying on his bed, an iv drip connected to his arm. he got up, his head throbbing with only a faint memory of what happened before he passed out.

jaemin dragged the iv drip behind him, checking y/n room near him only to find it vacant, along with jeno's just opposite hers. clueless, he search through the different dream member's room, only to find them all empty until renjun's. the multiple screens on his wall and desk all lit up, showing the surveillance cameras around a certain area.

" you're awake, how are you feeling? " renjun questions, as jaemin took a seat on his bed, taking the spare earpiece on renjun's table.

" terrible. " he mumbled as he connected the audio, his eyes fixated on the screen where they could see dino trailing the computer science teacher into a back alleyway several streets away from where chenle was positioned on top of a building. jeno and y/n pretending to be casual civilians nearby just in case there were any passerbys.

jisung and haechan being the drivers for both dino and chenle respectively, hidden somewhere around the corner.

It seemed like both of them had different targets. a man's silhouette appeared in the alley chenle was facing, he seemed to be fiddling with something in his hand. he waited for the man's face to come into view before he shot him down with a single shot.

kind of a mistake made on chenle's part. due to the fact that there weren't any passerbys for the past thirty minutes they had been waiting there. Just as he fired the bullet, a lady arrived.

standing in shock, watching the teacher fall onto the ground, unmoving. she trembled, phone in hand as she shakily dialled something into it.

through the earpiece, y/n could hear renjun's voice telling her what to do. she took a step forward, shakily let out a breath before running to the witness, knocking the phone out of her hands and practically dragging her yet a few streets away from the scene.

she heard jaemin told her to be careful over the earpiece but all she could only think of how much she dreaded what was going to happen.
