CHANYEOL’S POV

The night spent with Doori was fun we talked about everything. Her talks give away her thought patterns. All of her pains and joys are front and foremost, with me. Mine are pretty same. I never cared to talk of what affects her never did she cared as well, none of us seeks the quickest escape from the conversation. It is as if we decided long ago that it was our task to sooth each other. And so the usual things happen the night we talked as if we never had ever left each other, watched movies, told her about the family, tho she refused to see the faces she wanted to do that in person, confessed secrets and present situations. In a blink of the eye its now 10 am and we are waiting for everyone to come. Then we will execute our plan and will be gone for good.

DOORI’S POV

It is nice to have Chanyeol in my life again and this time it is permanent and not for only a day. I have missed him the past two years. Never had I ever thought that he was a universal star tho. Well now I surly know that my life isn’t boring anymore especially is Yeol is a part of it.

There is no need of dropping out of my fashion classes since I will be declared dead anyway. I am not allowed to take anything of mine that will easily be spotted as missing which include clothes. Yeol gave me one of his hoodies and I kind of wore old sweatpants. I think it’s a bit much I am sure my aunt has no idea what I do have and besides she will be too busy celebrating that she won’t notice if I take everything from my room but all I took was my necklace my mom gave me once.

“What do you want for breakfast?” Yeol’s deep voice echoed in the empty house.

“I thought we don’t need human food.” I was so puzzled I mean he told me yesterday that we dont as such need human food and craving raw is our nature we even had some yesterday.

“No we don’t but it does not hurt. Let’s eat for fun?”

“Oh ok what ya want?”

“Well I recall a certain women telling me that she makes way better brownies then Starbucks. I would like to examine.” If Hogwarts was real Yeol would have been sorted into Slytherin just because of his dym smirk.

“Okheyyyy doofus. You will be licking your fingers by the end.”

I went straight to the kitchen and placed the ingredients for the brownies I'll make him eat his fingers.

SEHUN’S POV

All my irritation was changed to anger and rage the moment I saw her hugging Chanyeol hyung I felt as if I will kill one of them. As soon as they hugged, something in me changed from calm to winds like hurricanes. That was it for me I couldn’t bear more I felt rage I also felt like puking right there, so I left. I wasn’t hungry at all, in fact all the feelings of hunger I had before were gone with the wind.

I left her house and in a second I found myself in the forest. I felt lost and confused, hurt and angry. I was like a ball of tangled yarn. The parts that are untangled are available, useable; the rest is a mess, useless until it is untied. That mess felt endless and at most times unyielding until I heard cries they were loud and full of hurt. It was a primal sound, one we're programmed not to ignore so I followed it and what I saw was horrifying.

There was Baekhyun hyung on a big rock crying out loud. He cried like there was too much raw pain inside him to be contained. He cried like his spirit needed to break loose from his skin, desperate to release an elemental rage on the world. He cried with more violence than any gale. I wanted to go and sooth him but I knew if I did he will stop and keep it in again which will be more destructing so I stood there poorly hiding as helpless as I could be cursing a certain grey eyed wolf.

After an hour or so he stopped, gathered himself and left I followed him as quietly as possible. To my amazement he went to the apartment. I stood outside listening to his movements contemplating on what he is doing and I think he went to bathroom first and then in his room and then I heard sobs. It was more than crying, it was the kind of desolate sobbing that comes from a person drained of all hope. Hearts don't snap like brittle caramel or burst like an overfilled balloon. A heart breaks in the heaving waves of a new disturbing reality that has arrived uninvited. They aren't the same again, there's just a part of them that has to die so that the owner of the broken heart can carry on his duties. So as I just stood there, listening for Baekhyun’s sake. There was part of me breaking too he is my family treats me like his child. If he wasn't the same then neither would I be. That's what happens when you love someone, right? Their happiness is a part of your own. That’s what family is right?

After a while I realized the sobs are no more there figuring he has slept I went inside. Indeed my predictions were right he slept with tear stains cheeks under his duvet. I waited for everyone to come back and when they did the news of Yeol staying with whatever his so called fiancé’s name is ughhh why does it feel so wrong? Pushing my feelings aside I woke Baek up and we were told how she decided to fake her death and how we will take her tomorrow with us and manager hyung will sort everything behind and follow us.

So now here we stand in front of the ugly house. Crazy prepared for the life ahead I guess?

BAEKHYUN’S POV

After leaving the house I went to the forest curled up in the fetal position and let myself cry like I was a kid again. My world had shattered and I have no idea if it would ever be right again. When the wracking sobs subsided I went to the apartment and straight in the bathroom to wash my face with cool water. I barely recognized the person looking back at me, those red eyes and puffy cheeks. I pulled myself together for my family, but for now they were not here so I allowed the tears to flow again.

I have no idea when everyone came I drifted to sleep while crying under my duvets but what I do know is that when everyone came the count of the residents of this apartment decreased by one. Yeol wasn’t back. I have no idea how I managed to trick Suho and Jongin for the whole time but I did and now after one hell of a long night, next to Sehun, here we are back in front of the house. This time I am prepared. I’ll meet her nicely greet her like family member, which she is. Jongin told us that she is a nice one, when she is calm, he says she matches Kyungsoo’s personality just a little scarier but no harm done there. He said so much about her that I want to know her. I will not let my feelings come in between me and Doori.

This is what I had in mind until the door opened.

JONGIN’S POV

When we reached we punched in the password of the main door and let ourselves in and are instantly welcomed with laughter and a smell like Charlie's Chocolate factory and as I inhale it I instantly want it.

Running towards the smell, which mind me we all did, I am shook to see the scene that unfolds. There in the kitchen stands Chanyeol hyung laughing well that is normal but what isn’t normal is his black hair are greyish due to some white powder and he has Doori lifted up to some cupboard with her face buried in it.

She was still staring into the cupboards as she says, “No pancake mix.”

“The shops must be open but my legs still feel heavy thanks to a certain someone…” he carefully lowered her on the counter.

Doori smirked. "You stupid elf, we have flour, eggs and milk. One cup of flour, one egg, three by four cup milk and a pinch of salt. There, now your pancake craving stomach can be full without walking to the store."

Chanyeol nodded, mouth puckered, and then let out an altogether different kind of sigh-softer, quieter and happier. "You're a life-saver."

“Bow down peasant.” And he did a royal bow this was way too funny to not laugh at and when I did I took their attention.

“Oh hi we didn’t heard you guys coming.”

“Naah no issues… so what’s cooking?”

“He” she pointed at Yeol and then said nothing. She was quiet for a little too long so I broke the silence.

“W-What’s wrong?”

“Nothing umm who are they?”

“Yah Park Chanyeol you did not even showed her who is who?” Suho hyung, the ever so emotional mother.

“Well I was going to…”

“He probably forgot all of us hyung, I mean no one remembers friends over lovers.” Is Baek trying to be sarcastic?

“Anyways Hello I am Byun Baek Hyun your new family.” I winced at the emptiness his words carried but he hasn’t been very cheery since a long time.

“Hi my name is Doori. Ji Doo Ri.” This girl has a nice smile. Lol who am I kidding? we all have a nice smile, runs in the family.

“And you are?” she looked over to Sehun.

“None of your business.” Wow leave being cold to Oh Sehun.

“That’s a very long name did you named yourself?”

“Let’s just get going I feel sick due to her scent it’s suffocating.” Hypocrite. I mean sure she has a stronger smell then most of the new wolves but dude it’s a nice smell and he 'LOVED' it just two days ago.

“Sehun where are your manners?” It sounds really weird that Suho hyung is and acts like our mom but it’s him that keeps us ‘us’.

“Where ever she left her brain. Anyways lets please leave?”

“But she is making something delicious.” I whined and it worked, like always, we stayed there for like almost an hour and it was so worth the brownies she made yum. Kyungsoo hyung has competition in the house. I even saw Sehun sneakingly taking another piece.

After that was done we all were going to go when we realized Doori cannot shift in the wolf form yet. So after a lot of argument we decided she will ride on our backs one by one till we reach but Sehun went on like ‘She looks heavy’ or ‘I don’t want to’ and he wined and wined and to be honest everyone tried to shut him up but Baek. It's weird how these two are weird I really want to talk to sehun about this and I will as soon as I find the right time. Anyways after arguing a bit more Yeol had had enough of it so he declared he will give her a ride for the whole journey and we agreed tho I may have helped him for an hour or so.

After running for a night and half day we are finally home.
