Don't Touch My Heart [LeeKnow]

Chapter 11: Seeker

|<Say please> He whispers. His lips almost touch the back of my neck.|

I frown my eyebrows.
<What if I don't?> I ask, trying to free myself from him but I fail.

I swear that if he keeps whispering against my neck, I'm gonna lose my mind.

<I'll keep you like this> He purrs, I can tell he is smiling even without facing him.

There is something about the position we are in that... I don't know. It's making me forget about the awful person Minho is.

I hate the power he holds over me.
I sigh and I clear my throat.

<Will you let me go?> I ask, faking a smile.

<You're forgetting something again> He chuckles. His giggles echoes in my ear.

I sigh again. <Please?> I say, trying again to turn my head to him but doing so I end up leaning it on his shoulder.

I can somehow feel his body tensing up.

<Are you doing this on purpose?> He suddenly asks, his mood has completely changed. Now he is serious again. His grasp not leaving my arm even tho I said "please".

<Doing what?> I ask, not getting what's happening.

He takes a deep breath.
<Nevermind. I'm letting you go but don't make me lose. I'd hate you more than I already do.>

<Yeah I know. You're not the only one who wants to win here.> I say, letting out a sigh of relief as he takes off his hand from my arm.

But as I step away from him, a weird feeling of emptiness hits me.

<Han hasn't still found anyone. Wow he really sucks at this> Minho says, mocking his friend.

<You talk like you're sure you'd do any better> I say, sitting on the wooden floor.

<In fact, I'm sure I'd be better> He confidently says, sitting in front of me as well.

I sigh. Don't fuel him.

<Okok let's change topic. Hyunjin invited me to a party. Do you know anything about it?> I ask as I remember Yeji's words. I'm trying to behave civilly.

I also remember that with Minho being Felix's stepbrother, he is also the son of the principal. So he could cause me troubles whenever he wants.
I need to be careful with him.

<A party? Oh right... Jeongin's Birthday. You're coming, too? Now it's guaranteed that I'm going to have fun.> He says in a teasing tone.

The walk-in closet is very dark so I can't really see his face.
It's creepy so I decide to turn on my phone flashlight.

I put it in the middle of us so it can enlighten us both.

<You know, I almost preferred not to see that irritating face of yours> He mocks me, doing a weird grimace.
