I heard shuffling and grunting, but never the pain that was supposed to come. I opened my eyes and was surprised to see Changmin. "Changmin..." "Why are you just lying there? Run!" Everything told me I should, get as far away as I could. "No." I couldn't just let him do this alone. I know what I'm doing is probably idiotic, but...

I sat on top of them while Changmin held the knife. "Who is this..." I took off the hood and became confused. "Umm...who are you?" She stayed quiet and avoided eye contact. "Changmin, do you-" "No. Not at all." "Hey, answer us. Who are you and why did you attack me?" She delivered a strong blow to my side and sprinted while yelling once, "If it isn't me, it's him." I looked at Changmin who shrugged then smiled. "I'm glad that you're okay." "You should've just let me die." "I wouldn't have been able to live with myself if I did. I'd go mad." His dimpled smile made my pain feel less intense. He helped me up then stole a kiss. "It was now or never, sorry."

We moved into Juyeon and Haknyeon's room as the one we shared was burnt beyond recognition. Changmin clung to me while singing in a low voice. "Did you visit me at the hospital?" He stopped singing, but didn't reply. "Did you?" "Yes." "Why?" The door had opened and I was surprised to see Sangyeon. I assumed nothing had happened as he didn't look frantic like past times. "Here." He took something out and handed it to me. "It's warm..." "We had to hide it. Hyunjoon was doing a body search." "What for..." "He said in case we had anything on us that could possibly kill someone else." I unfolded it and saw a key land on my chest. "Y.H...Huh..." I looked at it and it seemed to be the exact same key I found in the pothole.

I tried the new key in the lock of the book and felt it open. "It's open..." They both squished themselves next to me in order to see what was written. I opened it and something fell out. "Oh my-" "Disgusting..." I didn't want to observe a specific photo, but it must have clues in it to this mess. The first photo was Eric naked in bed with scratches, blood and semen all over him. "Changmin...I think this was during that party..." He looked completely shocked then had a face full of regret. "I...I didn't know...I could've prevented this...Why didn't I be the responsible one and watch over everyone..." What concerned me was the fact there was blood on him. Was he cut or was it a sick kink? Neither was ideal, but the latter was the lesser of two evils in a way.

The other photo was of Eric, Juyeon, Younghoon and Hyunjoon. Hyunjoon seemed upset, but I wouldn't blame him if Younghoon and Eric were sent to investigate something alone. And it seemed like something had happened as Eric looked deflated. "What did you get from this one?" "Well, Hyunjoon seemed upset, but I'm guessing it's because Younghoon and Eric went into some cabin together." "Hyunjoon was always the jealous type." I turned to the first page and was surprised by the neat handwriting. "I never believed in these things, but I decided to give it try. Only because he said so." I read more pages and they all seemed to be about a guy. "It turns out I'm not the one. That doesn't mean I can't change his mind. I will change his mind." "Do you think he was referring to who he liked?"

"Obviously." I skipped ahead then read an interesting page. "He chose Hyunjoon over me. I'm literally everything everyone wants in a guy. They should be careful from now on." I skipped ahead more then felt a bit sick.

"I gave him two options.
He chose his fate."
