I had no idea where I was. I was trying to find the bookshop, and ended up in this long dark alley. I had never been to this side of town even though it was close to my home, but it looked so unfriendly, like this place was sucking away the light leaving everything in darkness. I heard some voices and some noise and decided I was going to ask them for the way. Better that than standing here not knowing where to go!
The noise, sounding like someone arguing and talking came from inside a brick building in the end of the alley. The thick metal door was open and I got in.
Inside there was a long hall with doors on each sides and in the end it was a door to a bright room where the voices came from. I looked through the crack and gasped. Inside there were a lot of young men and boys, all of them looking impropriate. Some of them were wearing makeup and some were walking around in just their boxers and all of them looked like they had been up all night, their hair a mess.
It looked like some kind of bar, only with couches all around, and in the end of the room there were small rooms with carpets in front, more like alcoves. It looked like a whore house, or how I imagined it would be, but how could that be... in my neighbourhood!?
In the middle of the room there stood a man. He had brown stylish hair and expensive clothes. He was counting the money that the other gave him.
«What the…?» I couldn’t take it anymore and turned around to just get away. *Bump*
«Ouch…»
I looked down at the person I had bumped into. He had big brown eyes, and his face was so pretty and he looked so innocent. His lips were light pink and plumb, and his golden long hair ruffled.
«I’m so sorry, you okay?» I just stood there dumbfounded, not really knowing what to do!
He didn’t say anything, just looked at me with those dark doo eyes. He looked so lonely and sad. My eyes fell down to his neck, and my eyes couldn’t leave his neck, my heart stopped beating for a second. It hurt to see the state he was in, no wonder his eyes were filled with pain. His neck had red and purple marks, just like someone had tried to choke him, and his arms were covered with bruises.
«Looks like Key got an admirer... Too bad he’s out of your league» I turned around and saw the man with the money in the door. He was grinning and shook his head like he just caught me in doing something bad. The rest of the guys just sent me an uninterested look before they went back to gathering their clothes and get back to the rooms, clean or do whatever they were supposed to be doing.
«If you want to fuck someone, you have to come back tonight, if you have enough money that is»
The guy looking like the owner had an evil smirk on his face when talking. Like he was starring through me, not caring who I was, what I wanted or whatever, as long as he got what he wanted.
«Or do you just need a job? With that face of yours you could make a lot of money you know!»
I could feel my face burning up. How could he just stand there and talk so freely about ‘it’?!
«No... I was just lost.. and.. thought I could ask someone.. for the way here..»
I felt how my voice was shivering, and I for sure was stuttering. The man in front of me didn’t help, and the fact that the boy I bumped into was just standing behind me looking at the ground, not even daring to look up at me made me even more uncomfortable. Why would someone respect the guy in front of me? How could anyone live in this state?
«Key, would you be so kind and help this lovely man. Maybe you’ll get a new costumer!» The man asked the shaking boy behind me, and the boy just nodded, still not lifting his eyes from the ground, just like he had done something wrong and was getting punished, or was it the fact that he was embarrassed in front of me?
When I turned around to the boy, the man suddenly pulled me back. His hand held out like he was expecting something.
«But I’m afraid you have to pay me. You touched one of my boys, and they aren’t for free, especially not this one. He has his own owner as a matter of fact..»
The boy behind me looked even sadder by the reminder. Seemed like the fact ripped open a wound.
«How much?» I just asked, not wanting to make the situation worse, all I wanted was to get away.
«100$»
I just gave the man the money and turned around to the boy.
The boy behind me just kept his eyes at the ground and turned around signalizing that I should follow him. Behind me I heard the man laugh like he just made a good business out of nothing, but as long as I would get away from him it would be okay!
Key looked so young. All too young for having this kind of job. It shouldn’t be legal!
When we got away from the alley and out to a brighter part of town, he stopped and looked at me. And for the first time I heard his voice. It was so soft, like a soft tune, but from the pain washing over his face it looked like it hurt him to talk.
«Do you.. want me to follow you home?»
Somehow the boy made me feel like I wanted to protect him. There was just something about him. The fact that he was dressed in clothes, showing of his skin didn’t catch my eyes, nor the fact that he was way too pretty. The thing getting my attention was just his sad and lonely eyes filled with pain. It was like I drowned, and the fact that his body was covered in bruises just made everything worse!
I looked around and recognized this place; I lived just a few houses away. I turned around and faced the boy, giving him one of my bright smiles, trying to tell him everything was okay, or at least would be okay!
«Your name is Key right?» I lifted his face up so I could see him in the eyes. He just nodded in response, too afraid to say anything. «If you ever need something, you can always come to me, I live just some blocks away» I pointed out the house and smiled to the boy. Somehow it just felt right to tell him come see me, there was something about him, something I couldn’t describe!
I could see the changes in his eyes. He looked so surprised, and I could see from how he was behaving that he didn’t live an easy life, nor was he used to someone being nice to him, but he deserved it. That was something I knew by just looking at him. He deserved much more than what he had right now! I turned around and even if I wanted I couldn’t forget those eyes with so much pain in.
*Key POV*
I watched the young man walk away. Never had anyone who wasn’t a prostitute been so kind to me. Every night I prayed for that one day someone would come and save me, and today it had come true. God had sent me an angel. I felt so happy, just those warm eyes, I would have given him myself for free if it weren’t for...
«Hey! What’s your name?» I had almost forgotten to ask, and shouted it after him.
«Jinki, Lee Jinki, but you can call me Onew! » He answered and turned around and waved at me.
I couldn’t take my eyes of him and just stood there watching him until he had gone inside the house. Was he for real that nice?! For some reason I really hoped I’d be able to see him again! He would be my reason to keep living!
Jonghyun was waiting in the door as I stepped back into the alley. The brick walls seemed to come closer as I walked in the shadows back to the door. Jonghyun pulled my chin up, exclaiming my neck. He sighed as he dropped my face, lifting my shirt up to look at my back. I winced as he touched one of the bruises, his finger tracing the blue marks, trying to find open wounds, but found none.
«Tsch, tsch, tsch... That bastard»
He took some money out of his wallet and placed them in my hand before he turned to leave.
«You have the night off..» He just mumbled before he disappeared into the building. That was his way to saying sorry for not making the man owning me treat me nice, but what could he do anyway? He was just longing for the money I brought in. And out of care? What would he do out of care? The only thing he cared about was the fact that I wouldn’t be able to dance in my state.
I looked down at the money that was burning in my hands. The money wouldn’t help me, they wouldn’t lessen the pain, nor would it ever be enough to buy myself free.
I got back in and found my way to my room where I more or less fainted down on the bed, not even caring to change the dirty bed sheets from last night. My eyes flew shut, but behind my eyelids I could only see one thing and that was the brightest smile I had ever seen. A smile that made me forget time, place and pain. Everything was good, like last night was blown away, like the surroundings got brighter. With Onew on my mind I fell into the deep comfortable state of sleep.

AhMin → Weee, you’re here too! =D Seems like you’re almost always the first one ^^ Seriously, I didn’t know the pairings were that messed up xD Back then I wasn’t really that wicked making the pairings like a mystery, but we’ll see if I’ll make some changes. All I’ll say is that Key is the one thing binding everyone together… Jonghyun does treat Key different, but maybe not the good way! But we’ll see ^^ Loove ♥

HikariTeiruzu → Aww, really? I really hope I won’t let you down and make the FF uninteresting! You have to tell me what you think, okay? =) The main pairing will be OnKey, but that is all I’m going to say, even though there will be quite some more pairings and some oneway love too… Loove ♥

Cindy → You’re here! =D But is there really that many pairings? It’s just… okay, I guess since I’m the only one knowing the pairings I’m saying that xD But we’ll see about the pairings later ^^ You like the poster? Wah, I’m so glad! I was so worried about that as usual, but this time because I didn’t have my old photo editing program on this computer xD But yes, the onkeytaemin picture is sweet. Hmm.. Again the pairings.. All I’m saying for now that it seems like Key already got a thing for Onew xD And yes.. I’m worrying a little cause I’m making Minho really really mean =S
Loove ♥
