Chapter 04:

"I'm sorry", Beomgyu said softly and hung his head low out of embarrassment.

"Is this the same boy who raised his voice against my crooked-eyebrow friend?"

Beomgyu couldn't help but snicker at the comment made by taller.The tall boy who stood in front of him let out a slight smile and said, "So, have it"
"Huh?"
The boy pointed at the tetra pack. Beomgyu picked it up and bowed, thanking him.

"I'm Soobin, by the way"
"I know", Beomgyu mumbled.
"Huh?"
"Oh, nice to meet you, I'm Beomgyu"
"I know", Soobin smiled and relaxed his back against the railing of the rooftop.

"You're so tall, how did you manage to disappear after doing the tactics?"
"The tactics?"
"The handkerchief yesterday and this today.."
"Oh, how did you know?"
"Don't tell me there's a ghost around too?"
"Who knows"
Beomgyu started sipping the packed latte. Soobin sat on one of the benches and took his little notebook out as he started scribbling on it.

Beomgyu finished the whole thing and looked at Soobin. Soobin raised his eyebrows, wondering why Beomgyu was looking at him. Beomgyu didn't say anything, Soobin said, "It won't be easy"

"What?"
"Going against him"
"I can't support someone like him, I can't even keep watching all of this"
"People who act noble are so rare these days"
"I'm not acting, but I can't disagree with what you just said"
"you remind me of someone"

After another moment of silence which might've been awkward but wasn't really, it was rather calm, Soobin commented, "Your shoes look good"
"Thank you", Beomgyu smiled.

Steps were heard behind the entrance door of the rooftop, Soobin stood up and held Beomgyu's wrist, dragging him to the back of the door, near the basin. Soobin then cleared his throat, Beomgyu who was still confused pulled his hand away and sat down, trying to hide himself.

"Have you checked the whole place?"
"Yes I did, bestie, do you not believe me?"
"Oh it's not about believing-"
two girls headed up to bump into Soobin who stood with his elbow resting on the wall. The girls started squealing, "Oh.My.Goodness! Lord Soobin! what are you doing here?", one of them yelled.
"I am not telling you guys?"
"He's sketching! can't you see you dumbass!", the other girl yelled.

Soobin nodded. The girl said, "By the way, oppa, did you see that filthy creature anywhere?"
"Um, w-who?"

"Oh, the boy who just got the red envelope!"
"No, I didn't see anyone"
"Okay, thanks! Do inform your friend if you do see him, he is desperately looking for him!"
Soobin nodded and the girls rushed down, chatting. Soobin walked backwards to look at Beomgyu who had his cheeks stained with tears, Soobin furrowed his eyebrows and was about to say something when Beomgyu said, "Thank you, once again", Beomgyu got up and ran downstairs. Soobin sighed.

"You can't escape me, baby boy~", a voice said as Beomgyu was shoved inside the bathroom door. Beomgyu's head started extremely paining, he held his head in pain. He felt dizzy and weak in his knees.

Beomgyu fell down there itself. The boys who just treated him that way, got worried all of a sudden.

"Yeonjun will kill you-"
"Why! He wanted the boy, he didn't say in what condition! Just pick him up and take him to the den!"
"The den? It's getting dark, the F4 would be in their cabin"
"Let's drop him in front of the cabin then!"
"O-okay!"
the two boys picked Beomgyu up and took him to the magnificent door that opened to the F4 Cabin, making way through the crowd.

The boys rushed to camouflage themselves into the crowd. Everyone started mumbling and gasping about the situation.

The door knob sound was heard and everyone became quiet, the door opened with barely any sound, revealing the youngest of the F4, who looked at Beomgyu with widened eyes, "Yeonjun hyung! Soobin hyung!", Kai yelled, the boys came outside, keeping their cool.

Soobin hesitated but walked towards Beomgyu, Yeonjun tilted his neck, annoyed, "Who brought him here?", Yeonjun asked, sternly. The boys stepped in front, Yeonjun walked towards them, "and why is he unconscious?"
"He- we just have him some sleeping pills!"

Yeonjun turned around to look at Beomgyu. Soobin picked Beomgyu's head up and felt something wet on his hand, he pulled his hand back to see marks of red liquid.

"He's bleeding", Kai said. Soobin looked around, "Kai, help me take him inside", Soobin ordered. Kai nodded, Taehyun also bent down to help.

Yeonjun sighed and rolled his eyes, the boys went inside, Yeonjun also walked in after slapping the boys for not abiding by his words.

"Taehyun, you do his first aid, do it enough to wake him up", Soobin said. Taehyun nodded. Yeonjun said, "Get him out of my sight as soon as possible, filthy people don't belong on my couches!"
"Calm down Yeonjun, he is injured right now, and all because of you!"
"It's not like I hit him!"
"But you are the ultimate reason he got hit!"

"Stop fighting you both!", Kai yelled.

"I understand that he is fun to play with, but seriously Yeonjun, it's our responsibility if he gets physically hurt, you know it very well that he is friends with Jungwon whose mother is very close to your mother"
"Oh please kai, stop reminding me of that scenario-"

"Did I ever say the boy is actually cute?", Taehyun said, catching everyone's attention.
