Jeno's arm was around my shoulders, he was biting his lip trying to keep the pain inside. I hurried to the elevators, entering. And thankfully the door closed after us, meaning we're alone. I was holding him, with one arm, while I searched for the earpiece. I looked into my jacket, it wasn't there. I was worried, worried about NCT and Jeno, and this was the night I realized, NCT really became a family to me. In less than a month.

After we arrived at the very top, I helped him walk to the door, which was next to the elevator, making it all a bit easier for me. I unlocked the door, making Jeno lay on the bed first, before closing and locking the door afterward. I made sure that Jeno was comfortable, before taking a shirt out of the bag, changing into it. Not caring that Jeno was right behind me on the bed.

After I folded the bloody clothes into the bag, not wanting someone to see them. I searched for my earpiece, but instead, I found Jeno's, I turned it on, taking the mic out too. "Guys, can you hear me," I said, my voice was shaking and breaking, fear taking over me. "Jaehyun, Taeyong are you guys fine," I asked again, hoping for a response but no one answered, the line was dead.

"Jeno" I called the boy, he wasn't answering so I turned around to see him already looking at me "They aren't responding" My voice came out as a whisper, I don't know what was going on. And somehow, I felt very weird about the whole situation. Our phones are still in the house, and the boys should be on their way back.

I calmed down, not wanting to get crazy over nothing.

I looked at Jeno, he was just looking at me not saying anything "What is" I asked him "you're crazy, we both could've died" He said, his voice a whisper "If I left without you, and you got killed, what do you think I would do" I asked him, not breaking the eye contact

"The world would still turn, and you would continue your life," He said, making me scoff. I sat on the ground, my back leaning against the wall "You know, the world would still go on. But not for NCT because you are a part of their world. You love them and they love you. I don't think Doyoung would've forgiven me if I let you die back there" I smiled at him "But aren't you part of their world too, if you've died, they would be sad too. You belong to us, you are a part of the family" He said, his voice breaking "You know, I don't know how that family thing is working, Jaehyun was the only one that ever gave me love, and the flashbacks are all the moments with him. NCT...I don't know what this feeling is, the feeling of wanting to know what is going on with them right now, I don't know why am I worried and scared, and I don't know why me...the biggest scaredy-cat decided to put myself in danger just to save a cold dude, which is a living ice-cube" I said, breaking the eye contact, looking around the small room

"That's the feeling of worry when you care about someone. You do everything to help them, even forget about your own safety" He said, but I don't see Jeno as a brother...I feel weird around him. Even if he's cold I still feel warm in his presence. And even if he doesn't know how to smile. I think he's very charming.

Someone just has to unfreeze him and show him that the warmth is better than the ice. But at the same time, the reason why he is like this makes me very curious

"Jeno" I called his name "Hmm?"

"Why are you so cold," I asked him, hoping for an answer "One day, you will know it. But not now" He said, letting a deep breath out "But....can I see your smile," I asked him again, looking at him. He was staring at the wall "I haven't smiled in ages" He confessed

"But I bet you look even more handsome with a smile" I teased him, he turned to me. His usual poker face showing "Well...I don't know" He shrugged, looking away again.

"Well. Let me see it, and then I can tell you how it is, okay" I said a smirk on my face
He rolled his eyes, letting out a chuckle "Why should I smile" he asked me "You own me" I pointed my index finger at him "Ah~ so you gonna use this against me" he said, trying to get under the covers. I saw him struggle. "See you can't even get under the blanket without me" I teased him again "yeah whatever, just help me" he rolled his eyes. I helped him get under the covers. Sitting on the bed "But Jeno" I called him again "Hmm?"

"I'm sorry," I said, looking at him "What are you sorry for" Confusion was written over his face "I should've checked if there was a sniper shooter" I looked down, playing with the hem of the shirt "We both made mistakes, I was running through the house like a crazy bitch, and I didn't pay attention," He said, I nodded my head.

"You should seep now," I told him before throwing the covers over his face. And walking away from the bed "What about you" He asked, pulling the covers down again "I'm going to stay awake, not wanting us to die" I peeked through the curtains, nothing looked suspicious.

"You shouldn't get crazy over this" Jeno said, making me face him again

"You said, that they are after me"

"They are but, we're safe now. At least until the boys are back. So now come here and sleep" He patted the spot next to him, looking into my eyes

"Jeno...I'm scared" I confessed looking down on the floor again "I know, but nothing is going to happen I promise"
