Heartless

Chapter 27

Hongbin’s POV

I woke up to the sun shining on my face when I feel Crystal stir in her sleep. She looks so peaceful and at ease, she’s beautiful. I admit that I’m scared when Jiyong tries to get to her, I couldn’t lose her. When I saw what she could do to Jiyong, the effect she has on him, it amaze me, just how much did the guy love her? At first, I thought he wanted sex so when YB told me that Jiyong and Crystal did it, I thought he’ll stop, but seeing him yesterday, I realise, it gets worst. I need to protect Crystal, from him, from anything.

I was too busy thinking when I feel kisses on my chest and I look down to see Crystal hugging me and kissing my chest, causing me to chuckle.

“Hey baby” I greeted her

“Hey” She said, sitting up a bit and kissing me

“Are you okay baby?” I asked

She look at me puzzled and said “Why wouldn’t I?”

I scratch the back of my neck and chuckle nervously “Are you sore or something? I mean, I was rough on you last night”

She giggles and kiss my nose “You’re perfect baby, don’t worry, I can take it rough” she said seductively, biting her lips.

I groan and feel myself becoming hard once again “Don’t tease me”

She laughed and rub her hand on my chest. I close my eye. Inhale. Exhale. Inhale. Exhale. I open back my eyes and see her staring at me with lust and when she saw me staring, she licked her lips and that’s when I lost it. Pinning her on the bed, I thrusted myself in her, satisfied when she moan and grip my shoulder. So in the end, I was having my morning sex with Crystal on the bed and in the shower.

After we’re done, we dressed up and went to school. YB dropped Crystal stuff last night when Crystal’s sleeping so that he doesn’t have to interrupt this morning. His words, not mine.

Once we arrive at school, I realise Crystal has been fidgeting the whole time.

“Baby, it’s gonna be alright” I assure her.

She sighed and nodded her head, but I know she’s still scared.

With the help of YB, my schedule is changed to match Crystal’s, so I was with her all the time and fortunately, there’s no sight of Jiyong anywhere. By the time it was lunch, Crystal is calmer and more relax. Thank god for that.

We were sitting with YB, Mino, G, Jin, Moos and Mark. Crystal was sitting between me and YB, she had her legs on my lap and she lean her head on YB’s shoulder. I know what you’re thinking, “aren’t you jealous?” The answer is no. I know YB and Crystal are close but I also know that YB will never touch her like that and I know Crystal love me, she will always love me. They’re like siblings and I respect their relationship, so I’m not jealous of YB.

Crystal could interact with G, Mino and Mark now, without things getting awkward but I know, her relationship with them will never be the same. I feel bad for Mark, honestly, if Crystal does love Mark, I would let her go with him, because I love her and I want her happy. Thankfully though, she loves me as much as I love her.

We were chatting and joking around but suddenly “Hey Crystal” and I feel her stiffen and seconds after, she started shaking of fear and she locked eyes with me and I see it all, she’s scared, for me.

Slowly, she turned around, looking at Jiyong, giving him a strained smile while Jiyong flash her a genuine smile and his eyes show so much love and adoration for Crystal.

“Hey Jiyong” she said softly and like always, he shiver when Crystal said his name

I sighed audibly and immediately, Jiyong’s eyes snapped at me and he glared, I saw Crystal’s eyes widen and she shook her head at me, silently begging me not to provoke Jiyong. Like hell I won’t. I have to protect her.

“What’s your problem?” He asked me

This time, Crystal squeeze my hand, telling me to shut up and my eyes soften at her scared expression. Turn out, Jiyong saw Crystal squeezing my hand and he growl, making Crystal remove her hand from me almost immediately and I look at Jiyong.

“You’re my problem” I snarled at him, standing up

Crystal is now tucked on YB’s side, shaking in fear and YB tries to calm her.

Jiyong went in front of me and we’re standing chest to chest and he said lowly

“I told you I would kill her if you didn’t stay away” he sneer

“You love her, you wouldn’t” I challenged, praying that I’m right

“I would, trust me I would” he said, shaking his head like he’s trying to clear his head

“I see what kind of effect she has on you, you wouldn’t hurt her, let alone killing her” I said to him confidently

He is now shaking his head vigorously and all of sudden, he kicked me so hard that I couldn’t feel my leg, causing Crystal to cry my name and he snapped his head on Crystal.

“Please Jiyong” she begged

“Please don’t hurt him” she said again

Jiyong is now gripping on his hair, shooking his head and mumbling ‘no’ again and again like he’s fighting himself. To my horror, Crystal start standing up and walking towards him.

“Leave him alone Jiyong” she said and look at me, her eyes show regret and sadness, immediately I know what she’s trying to do

“No, Crystal, please don’t” I said to her, her eyes were brimming in tears

She walked closer to him and hug him, he immediately calms down and she pull away.

“If you let him alone” she started and my eyes widen, she’s gonna do it, she’s fucking doing it, I shook my head, begging her to stop, my legs were in too much pain that I couldn’t feel it, I tried dragging myself so that I could stop her. The others look at us confused, they didn’t know Crystal like I do. They didn’t know what she’s going to do.

She continued saying what I’ve been dreading “I will be yours, and only yours” at this, Jiyong nods his head frantically and quickly dragged her away from us, from me.

The boys are too stunned to move and by the time they recover from shock, we’re already too late. Everything is too much for me to handle and suddenly, darkness surround me and the last thing I though, Crystal left, for me.
