i wake up in some container full of other kids my age, all handcuffed to chains attached to the ceiling. i look around bleary eyed, and see aris sat next to me. i have no idea what happened and i can't remember what happened last.
"what happened?" i ask aris.
"janson knocked you out with some drug to put you in here so you wouldn't hurt him." oh yes. aris knows my secret. i don't say anything for a while, thinking back to what happened when i was last conscious. aris confessed his feelings. and he thinks im in love with my best friend. i look over at him. his head is down and he looks awful. i am trying to think of how to say it. i mean, for me, it was the last thing i remember, but it could have been days ago, so really random. how would i even say it? "oh by the way im not in love with minho im in love with you." no that wouldn't work.
of course at that moment everyone starts screaming and shaking their chains. i was so lost in thought that i have no idea whats going on, but a few minutes later the train stops and soon starts getting lifted into the sky. what the hell was going on?
