Black Rose (Rosé X Male Reader)

Chapter 5 (Guilt)

Rosé's POV

"Chanyeol."

My ex-boyfriend. Someone who had destroyed my past, and haunted my present. The one who broke me.

His face scared me in my dream every time he crept into my mind when I was sleeping... his voice was something I had never wanted to hear... and our memory was just an illusion

"Chaeyoung, please." He started moving toward me, and my body dragged me further from him. "You need to understand!" my heartbeat rate rapidly increased as he began to speak louder since no one was around us. Meaning, no help at all.

Not only that I didn't want to see him. I didn't want to hear him, I didn't want to know him, everything that was about him... no. "I already know everything, Chanyeol! We're done!" I tried to stand up but I was too scared and ended up falling on the wet street once again. What if he did something to me?

He walked closer and closer as I crawled further and further. "S-Stay back, Chanyeol!"

"We could make something new! We could forget this and let it go! We could be together again! But you have to go and dumb me!" He picked up his pace and walked closer to me.

Fear kept igniting inside me like I was looking at a ghost and I couldn't predict what would happen to me.

Is this... my karma? God gave me a friend I have been wanting for. And I express my thankfulness by lying to him. Is this... my punishment? "Stay back, Chanyeol!! Or-"

He put his scary cocky grin full of everything I never wanted to say. The one he gave me back when I felt the horror of his presence for the first time. "Or what, little Rosé? You're gonna cry?" His hand was already within range to touch me.

I could only watch in terror. I could only sit and watch with tearful eyes until he was pulled back and punched in the face by a person behind him. "Or this." Someone punched Chanyeol and made him stumble to the wet ground.

I took that chance and ran to the man's back and hid behind his safe figure. "(Y/N)... I-"

"Couldn't even leave you for five minutes, huh?" Oh no, is he angry? "You okay, Rosie?" I just cowered behind his large figure.

I could feel his back muscles tense once I put my hands on his back, cowering like a scared kid. "Who-Who the hell are you?! Did you just punch me, you little shit?!"

But (Y/N) answered back with a cocky chuckle of his. Something I had never seen before. "Sorry, pretty boy. But I'm pretty sure that you're treating THIS girl in the wrong way." I could see his fists were clenched really hard as his knuckles turned white.

Is he really THAT mad? But I'm just... "Just go, Chanyeol! Stop ruining my life... please." I tried once more to push him away. Before one of them got hurt.

Chanyeol was about to go for me again until (Y/N) took a step forward while his right hand shielded me from the maniac. "You'll regret this, Rosé. You too, garbage boy!!" he ran away from us.

His figure was gone, but the tension on my body wouldn't go away as the scene was keep playing inside my head. the shiver I got was not completely just because of the cold weather, but also from the scene playing in my head like a broken tape.

And it had been terrorizing me long enough that even his name scared me... "Rosie!" I gasped as he brought me out of my nightmare.

My breathing was heavy, like someone who had run for 10 km. "Y-Yes?"

"You look horrible. You okay? Are you hurt?" he looked at me thoroughly. He looked fine looking at my body that was uninjured, until his eyes dropped to my wet clothes
