"I promise you Jeongin, I'll do it if you hurt him" I can hear the fear in Minho's voice, maybe they didn't but I did. I knew him, and I knew whatever he was doing and what he was seeing is hurting him.

Jae's eyes leave Minho and go to me, "And why would you want to put your life on the line Minho when your supposed "lover" won't even look at you?—doesn't even know you are willing to shoot yourself right here and right now just for him"

"Jae shut up!" Jeongin spat, not dropping his gun.

"I'm only pointing out the obvious" Jae puts his hands up in surrender as I remain frozen in place.

"Goddamnit Jae, Shut the fuck up!" Jeongin yelled, dropping his hands to the side and looking towards Jae without realizing what he did the sound of a gun went off.

I think we all had closed our eyes and hoped it wasn't us that had gotten shot because the building grew quiet.

"You fucking shot me you little bitch!" Jae yelled. I open my eyes to see Jae holding his left leg and Jeongin staring at the male in shock.

Jae wasn't looking at Jeongin though, he was looking at Minho and that's when I realized he was the one that shot the male.

I turn around to see Minho looking at Jae with wide eyes before looking at me. "I-I didn't mean t-to"

I go to him immediately and grab the gun before putting my hand on his cheek "Hey, darling". Minho looked up like he did something wrong. "You did good"

Minho tries to hold back a smile as I lean down to kiss his lip, I didn't get to connect our lips as we were rudely interrupted.

"Get a room" Chan's voice was heard entering the room. Minho pushed me away lightly, noticing Chan and Changbin's sudden presence.

Grabbing Jae and him going without putting up a fight made me grow suspicious. I look to Minho "Go to the car, I'll be out there"

"B-But", I give him a look and he sighs and goes to Jeongin, whispering to the boy and they both leave the room.

I look at Jae and walk to the make slowly "You knew we would come, didn't you?"

"Of course I did"

Chan and Changbin exchange looks, "And this was your plan? Getting caught"

Jae chuckles "I was never hiding from you Jisung, the only thing keeping you from knowing who I really was is yourself"  

I furrow my brows and shake my head lightly "You we're hiding"

"No I wasn't, but I'll give you this. Everything is in plain sight, you just choose not to see it"

"That's not true your father is hiding, he's running"

Jae smirks "That's all I'll like to say but with time we'll see how far you've come"

Chan and Changbin carry the male out, leaving me with those words surrounding my head. Repeating over and over.

In plain sight.

"Hey, you coming?" I look back to Chan and nod.

-

Joe stares at his hands as he sits across from Minho and me. This wasn't a situation I'd hoped to have but here we are.

"Jeongin?"

Jeongin looks up and his eyes caught mine, even though I wasn't the one that called his name.

"You went there to kill Jae?"
