"isn't it lovely, jisung?"

jisung looked at his captor with weak eyes, his body tied to the wall and unable to move. he was malnourished, his body slowly, bit by bit, falling apart.

"is what.." he harshly whispered, "is what lovely?"

"being all alone, knowing that you're stuck with me because I'm the only one who cares for you?"

jisung wanted to cackle, he wanted to explode with laughter, but he physically couldn't. one harsh breath and jisung would pull the last string his body can hold and he would no longer breathe. so he was left with staying in silence.

if you had told jisung a month ago that the man he had fallen for was evil and manipulative, and a sick person, he wouldn't believe you. but if you had told him now, now that he's being held captive in a toxic relationship, jisung would've left him just like that.

but would he really? would jisung really be able to let go of the one person who claimed to have loved him because no one else would? that would be up for him to decide, but he knows he's going to perish down in the cold, disgusting basement of his lover's home.

no one ever cared for jisung, at least, that's what he told himself because he had no one. his parents are now ashes floating in the air after they burned to death in a house fire. no one would befriend him because it was rumored that he purposely set his house on fire to kill his parents. it was false because jisung wasn't even in korea when his parents perished. he had been studying abroad in malaysia for the year before he'd return back to his current school.

so when that one boy came up to him and confessed his love for jisung, he instantly said he reciprocated it because he thought that finally, finally someone noticed him and loved him for who he was and didn't believe in the rumours that people had spewed about him.

oh, if only he knew his true intentions.

but what jisung didn't know was that someone really did care for jisung and would never lock him up, force himself on the blue haired boy, and never feed or let the boy drink. he was the boy that wanted to shower jisung with love, hugs, cuddles, and soft kisses that made both their hearts flutter. that boy was lee minho. he always watched and admired jisung from afar because he was scared to approach him.

so when jisung suddenly stopped showing up to school, yet his lover did, minho found something to be suspicious. he went up to jisung's boyfriend and asked him upfront where the blue-haired boy was. said boy's lover lied and said that jisung was at home sick with the flu.

minho knew he was lying, to an extent. jisung was most definitely sick, but he was most definitely not at home. he was at his prison, waiting and hoping that someone would finally realize his disappearance and try and find him. minho, normally not a daredevil, changed his mindset because he had a gut feeling that jisung was somewhere where he shouldn't need to be in, an environment that is unhealthy and is causing him pain.

that day, minho followed jisung's boyfriend home. before he did that, he tracked down where he kept his house keys, which were housed loosely on his backpack. keeping that in mind, minho accidentally bumped into the boy and managed to take his keys without him realizing. minho apologized and went back to his locker, waiting for the boy to leave.

once he did, he began his journey to find jisung and bring him to safety. in his arms as well as his home to nurture him back to what he once was. minho thought about what jisung might be feeling as he followed the boy silently, would it be fear? anger? sadness? all of the above? minho couldn't bear to see what jisung looked like because he should never have to see him like that. he should never have to see jisung be helpless and trapped in a place he didn't want to be in.

minho arrived at the boy's place behind said boy and watched as he struggled to find his keys before giving up and inserting his house code number. minho spotted an open window so he listened intently to what was being said inside.

"oh, jisung, guess what?"

he could just barely hear a whisper coming from the boy he grew to love and cherish.

"someone finally asked where you are! I wish I caught his name, as he's awfully attractive, unlike you in your current state."

he could still barely hear whispers from inside until the loud voice of his lover startled him.

"how dare you speak to me like that? I'm the only person who cares for you, you little shit. treat me with fucking respect next time."

minho heard no signs of hitting, but he heard a door close, lock, then mumbling about going to visit a friend. he hid when he saw the front door open and the boy walk out. his heart was racing for miles, and when he knew the boy was a reasonable distance away, he crept out and used the keys to unlock the door.

minho began tearing up as he heard the whimpers of a boy down behind a door that was right in front of him. he opened the door and rushed down, his eyes being unable to adjust to the darkness.

"j-jisung?" minho's voice cracked as he watched the boy he loved so dearly be chained up to a wall, barely able to move.

"how-" jisung started, his voice hoarse and dry, as if he hadn't drank something in ages. his body was super thin, and you could clearly see his ribcage. "how did you find me?"

minho broke down after he heard that one question. not answering his question, he walked up to jisung and started to find the lock to the shackles that were weighing him down. he found the one for his ankle, and to his relief, the key that he stole from jisung's lover unlocked it, and the rest of them.

"thank you-" jisung whispered to minho as tears started rolling down his cheeks as well. "thank you for being my savior."

"shh, don't talk, okay sungie? just hold onto me as tight as you can, I'll protect you, okay?"

minho felt jisung nod his head, and he quickly wiped away the tears on his crush's cheeks before wiping his own with the back of his sleeve. he lifted jisung up bridal style and the boy was as light as a feather. that was enough to make him start having tears roll down his cheeks once again.

thankfully no one was upstairs when minho carried the blue-haired boy in his arms up there. jisung had fallen asleep against the chest of minho, and when in the light he could tell how malnourished and filthy jisung was because of his lover. but that didn't stop minho from falling deeper for him. knowing that jisung's captor deserved to be punished, he placed jisung softly down and pulled out his phone.

"hello? I'd like to report a serious case of a kidnapping, sexual harassment, and holding someone hostage."

"what is the name of the person you are filing a report of?"

"kim jaesun."

after that, minho told the address and with the police waiting with him and jisung sleeping in his arms peacefully, they waited for jaesun to return home. when he did, his eyes widened when he saw minho holding jisung and the police standing next to them protectively. jaesun was arrested and minho was driven to his home with jisung still in his arms.

he knows he should've taken him to a hospital, but by personal experiences he doesn't trust them. he knows what jisung needs and he made sure to make it all in one sitting because jisung needed as much as possible to make sure he didn't die right then and there after suffering for so long.

so minho made everything and kept it warm for when jisung woke up. he sat next to the sleeping boy, jisung's head resting on his lap. the young boy stirred and eventually woke up, looking at minho in shock when he realized he was no longer in that prison.

"don't talk," minho stated softly, "are you able to walk?"

jisung nodded his head in uncertainty, so minho decided to lift him up bridal style and place him on the kitchen chair, facing the table full of food he knew jisung needed. jisung's eyes lit up and he used his eyes to thank minho. for the food and for saving him. minho watched as jisung engulfed all of the food, and gladly accepted the drinks that seemed to come endlessly from minho.

jisung attempted to stand on his own two feet, and to his surprise he was able to. it hurt a little, seeing as he'd been sitting in a fetal position for a long time, but he was able to place pressure on his legs and was able to slowly walk. minho was always one step behind him, making sure he wouldn't fall over. suddenly jisung stopped.

he slowly turned around and his face dimmed of happiness and instead that of intense mental pain. minho rushed to him and hugged him slowly.

"welcome home, jisung. you're safe here."
