TRIGGER WARNING: VIOLENCE, BLOOD, DEATH
Gaon was walking down the street a smile on his face, air pods in his ears. He turned down the street seeing the JYP building in sight. He was almost there when he was suddenly grabbed harshly and thrown into the wall.
He screamed but quickly had a strip of duct tape placed over his mouth.
He could barely see but could just make out a few figures in front of him. they seemed angry.
Then it was all black.
He woke up with a pounding headache and confusion. He looked around seeing concrete walls. It was cold he could see his breath in the air. He tried to move but discovered his hands were tied to the chair he was sitting in.
He panicked remembering what happened before he woke up.
He began straining trying to break his restraints doing his best to scream despite his incredibly dry throat and the duct tape on his mouth.
Suddenly he heard something next to him. he turned his head and gasped, his eyes filling with tears.
On the floor was all of the members tied together. They had bloody, bruised faces and looked exhausted.
He tried to call out to them, but he couldn't get any sound out.
"oh good, you're finally awake." A deep voice echoed through the room.
Gaon nervously looked toward the sound and saw a man walk towards them, a black mask over his face.
"please, just let us go." Junhan said.
The man smiled chuckling softly at Junhan.
"okay." He said before he reached down and untied the boys.
Gaon was confused but relieved the members were being set free.
They started to run away but the man raised his arm and then five loud bangs were heard.
Gaon screamed in agony as he watched his members hit the floor, blood pooling from each of them.
He was screaming and crying hysterically. He couldn't breathe he felt like he was dying.
The man laughed before he turned to gaon.
"Kwak Jiseok, this was your fault." He said in a playful tone before he raised the gun to his forehead.
Gaon squeezed his eyes shut as he sobbed and before he could even prepare himself, one final bang was heard, and everything went black.
Gaon shot up in bed screaming in agony. He had tears streaming down his face and wasn't breathing properly clutching his chest and sobbing horribly.
Gunil was in his room practicing some new drum solos on his electric drum set when he heard the scream through his headphones.
Instantly he was on his feet and out the door where he met jungsu and o.de who were also startled by the noise.
"is that jiseok?!" o.de said worried.
Then jooyeon and Junhan came running in the hall both still half asleep but terrified.
"what's going on?" jooyeon asked.
"it's jiseok, come on!" gunil said before rushing to the boy's room and bursting through the door.
He instantly saw the younger sobbing in his bed his teeth clenched, his hands shaking as they clutched his chest.
"jiseok-ah! Jiseok-ah what happened?!" gunil said as he quickly sat next to him placing his hand son gaon's shoulders.
Gaon could barely register where he was, but he heard gunil's soothing voice and blinked adjusting to his surroundings and finally locking eyes with a very concerned gunil.
"h...hyung..." he whimpered.
"I'm here jiseok-ah, I'm right here."
Gaon let out another sob and collapsed in gunil's chest clutching onto him for dear life.
Gunil hugged him tightly feeling extremely worried.
"i...I ...I thought you were gone hyung!!" he screamed in his chest.
"shhhh, shhhh, jiseok-ah, I'm right here, all of us are right here, it was just a bad dream jiseokie, you're okay." He cooed softly as he rubbed the younger's back.
The rest of the boys slowly approached gaon sitting on his bed.
"i...I was...so scared hyung...i...I watched him sh...shoot you...he...he laughed! He just-
"hey, hey, jiseokie listen to me okay? It wasn't real baby, it was just a dream. All of us are here and safe, nothing happened honey it's okay." Gunil consoled the younger softly while the others rubbed his back and shoulders.
"all of us are okay jiseok-ah, we promise you everything's okay." Junhan said gently rubbing gaon's back.
Gaon slowly rose up and looked at each of the members, his tears slowing a little.
"see baby? We're all here with you." jungsu said with a warm reassuring smile.
"take a deep breath jiseokie."o.de said very gently slowly carding his fingers through his lilac hair.
Gaon shakily took a deep breath, his panic finally subsiding as he felt all his members around him.
"you're doing great baby; can you do another one?" gunil said.
He did, taking a few more deep breaths until he was calm.
"are you alright now jiseok-ah?" jungsu asked softly wiping gaon's cheeks.
He nodded softly.
"i...I'm sorry..."
"yah, what are you sorry for?" jooyeon said in shock.
"f.. for...for freaking out and breaking down like that...I didn't mean to bother you..."
"jiseok look at me." gunil said.
He hesitantly met the leaders eyes.
"you have nothing to be sorry for, you had a nightmare bubs, that isn't your fault."
"jiseok-ah we are a family, we will always be here to take care of you, you aren't bothering us." O.de said placing a firm hand on gaon's shoulder.
"th...thank you guys..."
"aish jiseok-ah come here." jungsu said as he took gaon into his arms followed by the other joining the hug.
"we love you jiseokie, it's our job to take care of you." gunil said softly.
Gaon smiled gratefully nuzzling into jungsu's shoulder feeling jooyeon's hand in his hair, jungsu's arms wrapped securely around his waist, and gunil's hand interlocked with his.
When they broke apart gaon smiled softly.
"you sure you're okay now?" Junhan asked.
He nodded smiling at the boy.
"you guys can go back to bed now, I'm okay." He said.
"okay jiseok-ah, goodnight." O.de said before they all slowly left his room.
They were all out except for jooyeon.
"jooyeon?" gaon said as jooyeon climbed into his bed.
"lay down jiseok-ah." He said softly as he pulled the covers over both of them.
"jooyeon it's okay, you don't have to sleep with me."
Jooyeon wrapped his arms around gaon's waist and snuggled into him.
"but I wanna stay here. Are you really gonna kick me out?" jooyeon pouted.
Gaon was grateful for jooyeon's presence and knew that jooyeon could sense gaon's want for someone to sleep with him.
Gaon chuckled softly and snuggled into jooyeon.
"you're such a baby jooyeon-ah." He teased.
Jooyeon giggled softly feeling gaon cuddle up with him, his arm over his torso securely.
Jooyeon sighed in relief that gaon was okay and let his eyes slip closed as he played with gaon's hair.
Soon enough they both fell asleep tangled together, their bond even stronger than before.
