Bad Boys

Chapter 11
Moving at my place
After school, I went to buy a new cell phone and I took TOP with me. Even though Golf could see us together, thing that will ruin my plan, I knew how to make him forget about everything. We entered in the store and I went to see a new model which appeared one week ago.
-Whoa, I like this!!
-It’s a little expensive, don’t you think? He said.
-Neah, I have money to buy it!
He looked another way and I knew he was embarrassed because I could buy anything and he couldn’t.
-So what phone will you buy?
-Uh, I won’t buy it today… I don’t have enough money with me…
-Yah!! What about these two??
-You want 2 cell phones??
-No, silly. One for me and one for you, I said.
-There’s no need to buy me one.
-Yes, there is! Excuse me; I want to buy these two.
-Don’t, Alex…
-Shut up!
I bought the cell phones and I also took some things to put to them. I looked at him and he seemed to be upset.
-Come on, consider this as a payback for saving me yesterday…
-You don’t have to buy me something to show me that you’re grateful.
-I know…
-Thanks…
-You’re welcome. Wait a minute.
My mom called me and asked me where I am. I told her that I was with TOP and she told me to ask him to come for dinner. After I talked to her I told him what she said.
-Uh, I can’t…
-Why not?
-Listen, Alex. I really appreciate everything you’re doing, but I’m used to live by myself, without any close friends, ok?
I felt hurt. I won’t lie; it was like someone stabbed me right in the heart. I stopped in the middle of the road and looked at him sad. He continue walking, not noticing I wasn’t near him anymore.
-Uh, I wanted to… Alex?
He turned and looked at me, but I was walking already in the opposite way.
-Wait, Alex!!
-What?
-I didn’t mean it like that… it’s just… I’m not used with this treatment, you know?
-It’s ok, I understand. I won’t mess around with your life anymore…
But when I wanted to leave he grabbed my hand and started to walk to where the car was parked.
-Let’s go to my apartment first and then we’ll go to your house and have dinner with you and your mom, ok?
-Ok! I said smiling.
When we got to his apartment we were standing in front of the door, waiting for him to open it. But after he put the keys into the lock, we heard a little click.
-Fuck!! Run, Alex!!
-What? Why? What’s happening??
-Just go…
He took my hand and we went down one floor when his apartment exploded. I screamed and he pushed me on the floor to be sure we won’t be hurt. But a perch from the door went straight to my leg and hurt me, making me bleed.
-Are you ok?
-Yeah, I guess.
-Come on; let me take you to the hospital.
At the hospital, they put me some bandages and told me to be careful and not make fast moves. After that, TOP took me to his car and we went to my house. When my mom saw me walking like that she was scared.
-What happened?
-I… played basketball today and…
-She tripped.
-Oh…
-Uh, mom.
-What?
-Uh, TOP just lost his apartment.
-Oh, why is that?
-Some… problems, he answered.
-Can he… stay here?
They both looked at me like I was crazy and totally out of my mind, but I didn’t care. It was my chance to get closer to him.
-I can’t stay here, he said.
-Why not? It’s like I am helping you without any conditions.
-Uh, it’s not a bad idea, mom said. The guest room is free so you can take it.
-No, sorry, but I…
-I won’t accept any refuses.
-Fine…
I smiled and mom told us to go and take a shower. I wanted to climb the stairs but I was kind of confused, not knowing if I should make the effort and jump on one foot.
-Aish, let me help you.
He took me in his arms and climbed the stairs while my heart started to beat like crazy, thinking he’s that close to me. He opened the door with his foot and put me on the bed.
-Thanks, I said.
-You’re welcome. Is that my room?
-Yes.
-Listen, I don’t want to stay here too long… I will try to buy another apartment…
-Just stop worrying, please! We help you because we want.
-Ok… I’ll go and… take a shower…
-Wait!
I stood up and went to the wardrobe, took out a towel and handed to him. Then, I opened another drawer and took out a t-shirt and a pair of pants.
-Here it is.
-Who does these belong to?
-Oh, I keep them for my cousin. Sometimes he comes here to sleep in the weekends and he doesn’t take clothes with him. Don’t worry, they’re clean.
-Ok, thanks.
He wanted to leave but I called him.
-What?
-I can’t walk to the bathroom…
-Aish, its right here, Alex!
-I know, but the doctor said not to make effort or fast moves, right?
-Ok, I’ll take you.
I put my hand around his neck and he took me to the bathroom. I stood there and looked at him and he didn’t know what to do.
-What? Do you want me to help you take your clothes off?
-Hey!!
He smirked and got out of the bathroom, leaving me there. I took the shower and then got out. I stood on the bed, while watching TV; I heard the door opening and I saw him in my cousin’s clothes. Damn, he really looked good.
____________________________________________________________TOP p.o.v:
I entered in her room and saw her standing on the bed. I remembered when I finished my shower and took the towel. It was impregnate with her scent and I couldn’t help but smelled that towel for five minutes. I looked at her and saw that she was starring. I smiled and went next to her.
-What are you watching?
-Nothing. There’s nothing good to watch!!
-I know…
-Uh… TOP…
-Yes?
-Who did that?
-Probably Golf.
-Yeah, I thought about him too…
My phone rang so I answered.
-Hello?
-Yo! What the hell happened? We saw at the news your apartment exploded.
-Yeah, it did…
-Why? Are you ok? Chun asked.
-Yah!! Of course he’s ok, Chun, Alex said.
-Where are you? He asked.
-I’m at Alex’s house. I’ll stay here a while; beside, she’s hurt because of me.
-How come?
-A perch hit her leg and she’s injured.
-Oh… are you sure you don’t want to come here?
-Yeah… I need to… do things the right way.
-What do you mean?
-We’ll talk later, ok?
-Ok. Take care, man! Bye!
-Bye!
-Kids!! Dinner’s ready!!
-Coming!!
I stood up and headed to the door; then I remembered she can’t walk and turned to help her. I took her in my arms and went downstairs where her mom was looking at us with a strange glare.
-Oh, the teacher said she must not make any effort, I explained.
-Ok. Sit down…
-Honey, I’m home!!
-Dad!!
-Hey, Alex!! Oh, I didn’t know we had guests.
-He’s not a guest, honey. He’s going to stay here a while.
-Really? What’s your name?
-Uh, Seung Hyun, Mr. Park.
-Nice to meet you, Seung Hyun. Hmmm, smells delicious.
-Here you go, honey. Sit down and eat.
We started to eat and once in a while I was looking at TOP, just to see his looking back at me. Our feet hit each other accidentally under the table and we both smiled. I was happy, even though I knew that he was about to be killed earlier…

Diana p.o.v:
I was walking to my house, after I went in the park, sitting on a bench a while and relaxing. I was thinking about a lot of stuff, but I heard a car stopping near me so I turned my head and looked at it.
-Hey!
-Hey, Chun…
-Uh, where are you going?
-Home… why?
-Do you need a ride?
-No, it’s not necessary. Thanks anyway.
-Come on; let me take you home…
-Oh, ok…
“You’re such a player…” I said to myself and got in the car. Stupid me, I realized that he’ll find out where I live. Jeez, you sure are a genius, Dee…
-By the way, have you heard that TOP is living with Alex now?
-What??? Why?
-Well, it seems like his apartment blew up. So he doesn’t have a place to stay.
-Why doesn’t he stay at your place?
-Ask him, I don’t know that either.
-I see… maybe he likes Alex, I said giggling.
-Yeah, I thought about that too. Uh, can I ask you something?
-Sure.
-Are you free tonight?
-Why do you ask?
-Uh… let’s go on a date!
My eyes were wide opened and I felt like I was blushing. Damn it, did Alex open her mouth? I hope not because otherwise I will kill her!!
-It’s ok if you don’t want…
-Uh… I… ok, let’s go.
-I’ll pick you up at 8 pm. Is that ok?
-Sure. There’s my house, thanks for the ride.
-No problem, see you tonight.
-Bye, Chun…
-Bye.
I got in my room and laid on the bed, thinking about his proposal. I looked at the clock and it was already 6.30 pm. I need to get ready for tonight.
