Chapter Thirty Six
Bam's Pov
I stayed far away from the cops as they closed in on the alleyway. I just held Khun in my arms, keeping White's gun on hand in case White or Hwaryn dare move. I'm not letting those two near any of them under any circumstances. The police cars came to a sudden stop, police man climbing out of the cars one by one. I didn't mind them, holding into Khun.
"Your an ass, just so you know," he murmured against my damp shirt. I nodded, placing my head onto his shoulder. "The biggest jerk out there.." He nodded, clutching onto the back of my shirt, repeatedly nodding. "I've decided, I'm not letting you out of the house.." I laughed, kissing him on his cheek, placing my head back down on his shoulder. "But what if.. I don't know.. Gimme a minute,"
"What if I preform a song with you?" He nodded into my chest again, "Well that would be a exception.." He muttered, barely audible. He's cute, even when he's enraged. But one question stick in my head, no matter how comical. "Do you still love me?"
It was silent, I swore he fell asleep for a minute until he spoke. "is that even a question? as much as i was mad.. no am mad.. i still love you. forever and always baby.. "
And I could guarantee that everything was going to be alright.
Time Skip
The police took away White and Hwaryn for trial and investigation. They said they would integrate us later but would let us relax and calm down from the stressful events inform us later on their consequences when the time came. Once they had informed us on the situation and their next steps on taking care of White and Hwaryn, they swiftly left with the two of them.
And as much as I was flooded with relief, my foot was fucking screaming. I just tried to ignore it, everyone looked relieved and I didn't want to destroy that. Plus the bullet went to just the side of my foot, I could easily dig it out with towels, a knife, water and a pair of tweezers.
We all eventually agreed that we could head home since we still had the rest of the day to spend. I tried to focus in on their conversation, but my foot and head was throbbing. As much as I have been through immense pain, getting shot in the foot still fucking hurt. I stopped, dropping a few paces behind everyone before sitting on the sidewalk to inspect my foot.
I slipped off my shoe and soaking sock to inspect the wound. It seemed as if the bullet was still in my side of my foot. Blood was gushing everywhere, I wrapped my sock around the wound, trying to stop the blood from gushing everywhere like a temporary bandage. I peeked up to see everyone staring at me with worry and disgust. I glanced at my foot, back up at them.
"I- I'm fine! It was just a small wound! I can wrap it up when I get home, I've been hit with worse. This isn't that bad, I can probably just fix up my foot myself." Khun jogged over leaning down, examining the sock bandage. "You know we can go to the hospital to get it checked out. Right?"
I nodded, "But I can do it myself, it's a easy clean up. Don't worry, 'kay?" He pouted, standing. He gave me his hands, and helped me to stand. I slightly limped, but I didn't think anyone would notice, I just didn't want to add so much pressure onto the aching wound. Thank god he didn't know the bullet was still in my foot, he probably would've slapped me. I sighed in relief, me and Khun catching up to everyone else.
"Black turtle, stop being so reckless. You have to stay with the other turtles and your mighty leader. You can't just leave. You make me take on so many jobs as leader.." Rak turned to me, slapping me on my back. I couldn't help but flinch and almost fall over under his touch. After seeing White and Hwaryn, I couldn't help but be a bit anxious. But I didn't smile at Rak's words, I didn't know what to say.
I looked up at the bright sky. As long as I'm alive I'll always put my life before any of them. I couldn't promise or say anything that would go against that, because when it came to it, I'd do exactly that.
"I would say I'm sorry, I would say I won't do it again.. But when it came down to it, I would. But I'll try not to.. I won't do it unless most necessary," I nodded with my promise, continuing forward. It was silent the rest of the way to the cars, it was peaceful but slightly awkward. I could feel the tension..
I peered around, everyone's face looked calm but everyone's bodies looked tense. "Why's everyone tense?" I blurted out, everyone's attention turning towards me as we continued to walk. "Your faces look calm, but your bodies are tense. What's wrong?"
No one really spoke as we continued to walk until Hatz spoke up, "I don't know if this really is it, but you did almost commit suicide in front of us.. So yeah. I can't help but be light on my toes. Or it may be how you changed when you spoke up them, you seemed incredibly pressed pissed.."
I nodded along with his words, "Well I can't help but be mad when it comes to the people I've spent years with that kill kids, teens, and adults without hesitation. And honestly, I would never give up what I have now. I have you guys, and I couldn't be happier."
Hatz nodded along, people losing some of the tension in their shoulders. I lightly hummed, practically skipping. Everything had just settled in. White and Hwaryn were gone. I can't believe it.. They're gone! If White and Hwaryn go into the police's custody, then the rest of F.U.G will have no clue where I am! They won't care enough to come get me and will try to build another team!
"Yahoo!" I pumped my arms into the sky, cheering to myself. "I'm free! They're gone!" I dragged my hands through my hair, staring up at the sky. It was bright blue, clouds beginning to roll in, the sun not as high up in the sky anymore. It was pretty, the sky I hadn't really taken it in as much from when I got out. "The sky is bright.. It's pretty.." I mumbled to myself.
I felt a hand slip onto my shoulder, I couldn't help but flinch at the sudden touch but calmed down quickly. I turned around to see Khun right behind me, smiling like a goof. "I love you,"
I smiled like a dork, wrapping Khun up hug, picking him up and spinning him around. I placed him down after two spins, placing a kiss onto his forehead. "I love you too.. Forever and always. Let's go home.."
"Bam," I peered down at Khun, noses touching. Smiles reaching both of our lips. "Can everyone else come over? For dinner? Expect Shibisu may want to stay and possibly everyone else." I placed a small peck onto his lips. "Wherever you'd like love," He smiled. I snatched his hand in mine and were started towards the car, a wave of "Awws" coming from behind us. I couldn't help but laugh.
Time Skip
We had eventually all arrived back to our place, everyone chowing down on dinner as we all gathered around in the living room, lounging around. I had finished while others were still eating, so I took this as the chance to fix my foot. "I'll be right back, I'm going to go wrap up my foot.." I murmured to Khun, him nodding.
I hobbled up the stairs, my foot still incredibly in a lot of pain. This is fucking bullshit. My foot is going to explode, I'm going to rip out the bullet. I wobbled down the hallway entering our my room, and shuffling into the bathroom. Thank fucking god.. I collapsed to the ground, sighing. I don't know how much longer I could keep on a smiling face. Shit, this fucking hurts like hell. Ow..
I shuffled across the floor, opening up the bottom cabinets. First aid.. First aid... First aid! I snatched the box, revealing the contents. Bandages, gauzes, ointment, cotton balls, and I want a knife. But it'll have to be hot so it's easier and more sanitary to cut through the skin. I shuffled down the stairs, heading for the kitchen. Knives are.. There right, here!
"Bam? What are you doing in the kitchen?" I froze, shoot. "I-I'm grabbing s-scissors to cut my bandages?" I heard shuffling and Khun appeared in the doorway. He was leaning on the doorway, arms crossed and eyebrows perked up. He knows..
"Why are you being suspicious?" I waved me hand in the air, "I-I'm not, what do you mean? I'm just grabbing scissors?" Shit. Stop making everything sound like a question. "Ok.. But do you need help cleaning up your foot? I don't mind.."
I shrugged, "I'm fine, the bullet just grazed my foot." It's in my foot currently. "It'll be easy to clean up." Once I take out the fucking painful bullet. "Your fine, you can just hang out with the others and keep them entertained while I clean up.." You mean take a bullet out of my foot.
He pouted, strolling over to me. "Ok.. Call me if you need help. I love you." I smiled, giving him a light peck. "I love you too.." He smiled, heading for the living room. I turned back towards the knives, snatching one up and placing it into the burner, turning the burner on the stove all the way up. This is going to fucking hurt.. I glanced around the kitchen, my eyes landing on a clean kitchen towel all folded and placed onto the counter.
I gave the knife a few minutes before snatching the knife and towel up before continuing back up and shuffling into the bathroom. I sat back down onto the cold tiled floor, setting out all of my materials.
I slipped off my shoe and bloody sock, placing them off to the side. I placed my bare foot onto the freezing tile. I then snatched up the kitchen towel, rolling it into a cylinder, biting down hard. This is going to hurt like fucking hell.. Aww, god damn it. But I don't want to have to move everyone back to the hospital when I can do it myself.
I picked up the knife, hovering it above the side of my foot, right next to the bullet. We got this, fuck it. I pressed the flaming hot knife against my foot, breaking through the skin. My foot was burning and my jaw hurt from trying to suppress my screams down to small yelps and grunts.
"Fucking damn it.." I murmured against the towel, the knife digging deeper into my foot. Blood poured out of my foot, spilling onto the paper towel I had placed onto the ground. Tears rushed down my face the deeper and closer I inched towards the bullet.
Once I could just about see the bullet, I pulled away the knife, it clashing onto the ground. My unsteady hands reached for tweezers, shakingly bringing them above the bullet that was embedded into my foot. I began to pick and prod at my foot, my foot resonating in excruciating agony. This sucks.. So bad.. I couldn't help but yelp at everyone small poke until the tweezers eventually grasped onto the bullet.
Finally! I lightly began to extract the bullet out of my foot, my grunts beginning to form into yells. The bullet eventually came out, falling onto the floor. "Finally!" I gasped, wiping my tears away.
Blood continued to fall out of my foot, soaking the paper towel. I reached for a cotton ball, wiping away the excess blood. Once my foot wasn't dripping in blood, I grabbed another cotton ball applying ointment and disinfectant to the wound. Which stung like a bitch.
Once I had apply both the ointment and disinfectant, I placed the gauze to my foot before wrapping the bandage around the gauze, finishing up. Thank fucking god. Holy shit. Thank God it's done.. I placed my aching foot to the floor, stumbling to get up. I placed my hand on the counter, using it as leverage to stand.
I slightly bent down putting everything away and cleaning up before heading back downstairs. I peeked down the stairs, heading through the kitchen, quietly entering the living room. Shibisu popped his head up, smiling directly at me. What now..?
"I have a proposal!" Shibisu announced, sticking his hand in the air. Hatz shot him a questioning look, Anak following along. "Can we play a game?" Khun snorted, laughing into his hand. "Khun~ I didn't mean it like that.. Stop making fun of me.." Shibisu pouted, crossing his arms. I sat besides Khun, him slipping my hand onto the small of my back.
"Its fine Shibisu, please continue.." I smiled at Shibisu, him gaining back his cheery disposition. "As I was saying," he continued, shooting Khun a glare, " we should play a game.. Like never have I ever!" He cheered.
Endorsi shrugged, Anak and Hatz nodding, Lauroe was passed out on the ground rolled up in a blanket, Rak cheering along with Shibisu, I agreed, Khun reluctantly accepting the challenge with the help of a few smiles from me and taunts from others.
"So everyone can hold out both hands, and I'll ask a question and you'll put a single finger down if you have done the thing and kept you finger up if you haven't. And to add a twist at the end, whoever puts all of their fingers down first, has to do whatever we want." we all nodded along, Shibisu starting.
"Never I have ever broken a bone." Me, Khun, Endorsi, Anak, and Hatz all out down a finger. Shibisu began to cackle. "Ha ha! I'm off to a great start!" he cheered, peering around at all of us. Endorsi then spoke up, "Never have I ever drank alcohol." Khun started to snicker, whispering under his breath, "Yeah sure~"
I glanced over a Khun, whacking him on his thigh. He shot me a knowing grin, "Sorry, sorry.." I flashed him a small smile before putting down a finger along with Khun, Shibisu, and Rak. Eight fingers left. Hatz then spoke up, "Never have I ever called someone 'dad' or 'mom's to who wasn't my parent."
I sunk into the couch, recalling when I called Luslec, dad.. Oh god. That was so embarrassing. That is worse then when I fell down the stairs. White and Hwaryn probably still remember it to this day.. I put down a finger along with everyone else. Endorsi spoke up, "It was mostly teachers who I called 'mom' or 'dad.'"
Everyone else laughed along, agreeing. But I couldn't get the thought out of my mind when I called the Grace Mirchea Luslec, the Slayer No. 1 and the living "god" of the most dangerous and secretive criminal group, dad. I shook my head in disappointment as Anak spoke up, "Never have I ever stolen." I swear there just trying to get me to lose. Me and Rak put down a finger. Six fingers.
"Why?" Shibisu seemed intrigued. Rak spoke up first, "I was hungry so I took a single banana a little bit ago." Khun chuckled. "You really are a stupid crocodile.. " Rak grunted. "I'm not a crocidile! At least I'm not a stupid blue turtle!" Rak shouted.
Khun was about to snap back with another comeback when I leaned over and whispered into his ear. "Khun, let's get back to the game.." He huffed, quieting down.
"So Bam why did you steal?" Endorsi spoke up, everyone slowly gaining interest. "Well I did kind of live on the streets for awhile and needed to eat. So sometimes I had to pickpocket people for cash or take a loaf of bread every once in a while to last a good month or two." They all kind of looked a little upset, so I tried to change the subject. "So who's going next?"
"I'll go next black turtle," I nodded, Rak continued. "Never have I ever had longer hair then my hair currently." Five fingers. You've got to be fucking kidding me. This is bullshit, I call targeting. Me, Khun, Anak and Endorsi all put a finger down. Five fingers, I'm not going to make it.
"I'd like to go next," I spoke up, slightly annoyed that I had five fingers left. They could make me do anything they wanted. I wasn't to keen on doing that. Shibisu nodding along, egging me to continuing. "Never have I ever talked or spoken with my biological parents." They room quieted down, everyone hesitantly putting down a finger. I'll play the dirty moves that makes everyone out a finger down.
I sighed in content, glad that I didn't have to put down a finger. Khun then spoke up, "Never have I ever kissed a celebrity." I whipped towards him. "Baby, stop~ I don't want to lose.." I whined, falling onto his shoulder. I put another finger down, four fingers. "You suck.." I murmured, he just smiled and nodding, Shibisu going again.
"Never have I ever pulled a all nighter." The room went silent as we all stared at Shibisu. "Bullshit." I blurted out. "I've practically lived in those for most of my life. I think I had a year when I didn't.." Shibisu laughed, whipping his invisible hair. "I need my beauty sleep!" We all put a finger down beside Shibisu and Endorsi who need there beauty sleep. Three fingers.
"Never have I ever ran to save my life." Endorsi spoke, me and Khun putting down a finger. Two fingers. "Fangirls." I laughed, "Old perverts, Cops, White, Jinsung, and Rabid dogs." I chuckled, everyone seeming a bit concerned. "Don't worry about it.." I nervously chuckled, everyone else nodding.
Hatz then spoke up, "Never have a ever flirted my way out of a speeding ticket." I sheepishly put down a finger with Endorsi. Khun shot me a look. "We'll it was a female cop, all I had to do was unbutton a few buttons of my shirt and I nodded along, cooperating with her and she was head over heels. Plus me and White didn't get ticketed so.."
Khun shook his head, Endorsi laughing along. "All it takes is a few buttons of the shirt and you either be really innocent or seductive." I laughed, "Exactly!" One finger. I was the only one with one finger and I could feel Rak's gaze on me. "I'm sorry black turtle.. But never have I ever used a gun." Zero fingers.
Shoot.
