The knife trembles in his hand, the sharp edge stained with your blood, "I can't do it." Bum stares into Sangwoo's eyes with tears streaming down his face, "I can't."

"Yes, you can, Bum," Sangwoo assures wiping his tears.

He tosses an annoyed side-glance at you when he sees you grasp for a thrown hammer. He walks towards you, stomping on your ankle with fury, making you scream through clenched teeth. He drags you to Bum, as you leave a bloody trail. "You brought this onto yourself, YN, remember that. You destroyed this family."

Your fingernails dig into his muscled chest when he grabs you forcefully by the chin, exposing the length of your already scarred and purple neck. You claw him again, grunting in your pain, squinting with the blood in your eyes, but whatever attempt you do to hurt him doesn't make him budge. He digs his fingers into your wound making you thrash in unbearable pain.

"Slice her throat, Bum." He orders.

Bum's chin quivers as he stares at you and then at him, and down at his reflection on the knife, his face smeared with blood.

You strain your vision to look at him. Even if your life ends in his hands, all you truly want is for Bum to be at peace, for him to be happy. "It's okay, Bum," you breathe unsteadily, your words slurred, "Do it."

Bum weeps at your words, at the memories you have made together. The gut-wrenching emptiness he will live with if you are gone from his side. He knows he can't have both. He knows that it's too late to take anything back now.

"I won't do it, Sangwoo."

Sangwoo lets out a furious mutter and clenches a fist of your hair, smashing you hard against the concrete floor. He kneels in front of Bum and wraps his arms around him, pulling him into his strong arms that offer that false sense of protection, that Bum is more than used too, by now.

"You love me, Bum and I love you. You're the only one I can trust. You'd choose me, remember?"

I won't leave this place without you, Bum. I will never hurt you. I love you.

Sangwoo pulls him into a kiss even if Bum's nose continues to bleed. Bum quivers against his lips and remembers how much he loved Sangwoo, all he did to get his attention. The tears stream fast over his cheeks and he convulses with emotion when he jabs the knife into Sangwoo's belly.

I love you, you know that? You're special to me, Bum.

Sangwoo coughs blood instantly on Bum's face. He sees his expression of shock and it breaks his heart.

"Bum," He says raspingly, "What are y-you..."

Bum's entire body shakes as he slides the knife inside him again, and again, and again. Sangwoo begins to jerk violently as the blood dribbles from his mouth. He grasps Bum's throat and misses when he falls back on the floor. Bum remembers all the beautiful things he whispered to him in that gentle baritone voice, the way they made love. He stabs him in the chest. He remembers the pain and fear when he begged him no to break his legs. He stabs him in the neck, and in the arms with a furious sobbing. I hate you. I love you. He continues stabbing everywhere, Sangwoo's gaze never leaving him. The ultimate betrayal. He stabs and stabs until Sangwoo doesn't utter a sound anymore, until the Sangwoo he loves and hates, is no more....

Bum throws the knife, crying in painful heaps. He lays on his bloody chest as it slowly stops rising with life. He smiles at the memories of his kiss, of his love for him that was like a physical pain in his stomach. He doesn't know how long he rests over his dead body until he opens his eyes when he hears you groan. He looks over at you and kisses Sangwoo's stiff lips.
