-나는 그들의 것, 그들의 내 꺼야-

-present-

"we ended up killing everyone in the town..." i looked down at my hands

"do you... do you ever wish you would have died then and not have to go through any of this?" his words were muttered. i knew what he would choose

human life over a life of eternal misery

but i also knew that areum changes everything for him, just like it does for me and for the others

"you know what my answer is, if we had never turned, we would have never met areum. we wouldn't have her here" i responded to him

our voices were low and tired

we had spent hours talking to each other and it was morning. the sun was rising, the dark sky turned into beautiful oranges and purples

"she would have died in that ditch if we didn't find her" he mumbled to me

"yeah" i looked down at my hands

"do you... do you ever wonder why he did it?" i looked up at his sad face, "no. i don't care why he did it" he started, "all i know is that he's fucking evil, and he destroyed our old lives without giving a shit. i don't care why" he continued. he had a permanent scowl on his face, the same one he had when he was human

he never changes

-wonwoo's pov-

he completely destroyed our old lives. i was fond of that life. it was normal, we had friends, we weren't monsters, we knew people and we had normal relationships with them, but he disintegrated it

he turned us into monsters

and after that we killed anyone that crossed out paths with the power, we gained from him

we became bloodthirsty monsters that had no remorse for human life. the amount of guilt we feel for the innocent people that we killed is indescribable

at the time we were fine to die; it would have been easier to die, but he didn't let us (a/n i just got flashbacks to 0x1=love song lol)

"he killed any chances of us having normal lives" i muttered with bitterness and hate laced into my voice

the sun started passing through the thin curtains, hitting our faces

the morning sun has always amazed me

even when i was human, it always took my breath away

i turned my head to the window

back when i was a boy, soonyoung's sister and i always woke up an hour before the sun rose and we watched the morning sun, we watched the next day begin. we did that every day when we were young

now every time i see the sunrise, i always think of her

...and every time i look at areum... i think of her...

they're almost identical in so many different ways

i miss her. i miss you, yeji

(a/n i could not find any other kpop idol that looked like hoshi, but i think they don't look too different. also, i don't ship wonwoo and yeji in real life, it's just for the story and imagine that yeji is older than them. i was originally going to use seulgi but then i realized that she's already in the story so i had to change this part)

"wonwoo..." mingyu spoke out after a long silence filling our ears

"hm" i hummed

"what are we?" he muttered to me, but he could tear his hands away

that's a foolish question. what do you mean, 'what are we?' that's a stupid question

"what are you talking about, aren't we together?" i looked at him with a face

i thought it was obvious

his eyes turned hopeful when he looked at my eyes, "like... together. together" he placed his hands in front of him and he intertwined them, he had his puppy smile on his face. i chuckled lightly at his actions

"yes, together, together... you're my boyfriend and i'm yours. just like when we were with abella" i muttered the second part

"do you ever miss her?" he laid his arm around me

i thought about his question for a moment, releasing a small sigh

"no, i think she's in a better place now. so, no i don't miss her" i said

-areum's pov-

mingyu said that i should leave and go clean up and that's what i was planning to do, but the moment i closed the door behind me i could hear him screaming at wonwoo

i got him in trouble because of me. because i wanted to help him

but nonetheless i walked to my room, looking around the corner to see if any of them were there

when wonwoo bit into me, i didn't feel it. it even felt nice. it was euphoric for me

it was so different to when kai did it. sure, i don't remember it, but i remember pain. i remember just before i passed out, the pain. it was unbearable for me

but wonwoo made me feel safe. he was gentle with me. he took care of me

thank you wonwoo...

when i opened the door to my room, i noticed that someone was there before me

when i left my room i had turned off all the lights in my room, even in my bathroom. but right now, the lights to my bathroom were on

"hello?" i called out in a soft voice

i slowly walked towards my bathroom, uncertain of who i would see in there

"areum?" he responded

i was relieved when i saw seokmin walk out of the room and i let out a relieved sigh

"what are you doing here?" i walked up to him

"i was looking for you, but you weren't in your room so i looked in your closet and when i went into your bathroom you walked in" he said, "oh" i said

"you let him drink, didn't you" he looked disappointed, and his voice almost sounded sad, his eyes fell on my small figure

"yeah" i looked away from him, knowing very well that i deliberately disobeyed what they said

"his scent is all over you and you smell like blood" he explained, "i wanted to talk to you about what's been happening with you"

"what do you mean?" i chuckled nervously

i've always hated when people say, 'i want to talk to you' and they don't tell me in the moment what they want to talk about. i always remember everything i've done wrong in my whole life at that moment. it's nerve-racking

"let's sit down" he had a small smile on his face. if he has that face then it's probably nothing bad, right?

i did as he said and we sat down on my bed, i was seated cross-legged and he sat down on the backless couch in front of my bed (a/n not sure that makes sense but whatever)

"what's up? is something wrong?" i furrowed my eyebrows at him

"i know that the guys confessed to you and knowing you, you're probably conflicted about it, and also i wanted to see if you were alright, you know, mentally" he explained as he held my hand. he kept the soft smile on his face

"oh. that's what you want to talk about" i glanced at our intertwined hands and my words were muttered

"seokmin, i'm fine really. i just had reality hit me with what happened with seulgi. i was reminded of what people really are is all" i started out, still not able to look at his face. "people are terrible and fake... and they always seem to disappoint me"

"it seems like the only beings i seem to get along with are vampires" i chuckled bitterly, "i guess me being the reincarnation of selene might have to do something with it"

he didn't respond at my words. i'm sure he was still looking at my figure, my head still looking away from him

"you shouldn't think like that" he brought his hand to my cheek, forcing me to meet his eyes, "you just haven't met the right people. one day hopefully, you'll be surrounded by people that care about you, real people, humans" he had the same smile on his face

he pulled me to his body and hugged me, i was basically sitting on his lap, but i didn't mind it

his words calmed me down a little. they even gave me a little hope
