Cutting Strings

Chapter 12 ● Longing Yours

Tiffany glares at her sex buddy, asking for an explanation.

"He knows, don't ask me how. And he has been guarding the door so no one will come in" Sehun finally says as Chanyeol putting off his headset, "and don't be mad, I asked him to put on his headset" Sehun explains to Tiffany who look ready to smack him.

Chanyeol is looking at both of them, amused "Although I know what you two must be doing with that stupid look on Sehun's face and the long time you took" Chanyeol teases. Tiffany blushes, but try to look indifferent by rolling her eyes.

She doesn't really care if Chanyeol knows. He is a good guy, and she trust him. And letting even one people know of your dirty little secret feels relieved a little.

Sehun though, turns serious once more.

"Yeol, someone told a junior girl to tell her to meet this person at the back garden" Sehun explains to Chanyeol, getting into the serious topic.

Chanyeol then looks alarmed and serious, just like Sehun while Tiffany can't think of anything. This day seems absurd to her.

"Interesting" Chanyeol answers with a frown, looking at the girl between him and Sehun. She looks worried from the way she chew on her bottom lip.

Sehun wipe his thumb through her red lip to stop her biting, "Don't do that" he warns with a frown and snatch her hand to hold it against his. He want her to move her focus from her lips to his hand instead, it work since her hand starts to fidget in his.

Chanyeol sees this interaction with a raised eyebrows, "Interesting indeed" he remarks toward them.

Sehun glares at him, asking him to focus on the matter at hand.

"Well, let's meet whoever this guy is Tiff" Chanyeol finally says. Tiffany looks up to see his face, worry etched on her face.

"Really?"

"We'll be right behind you" Sehun promises her, latching his fingers with hers. Tiffany unconsciously moves closer to him, hiding a little behind his arm, and Sehun notice it. And fuck him, but he decides he likes it.

"Took you a long time" he says, standing up from the park bench.

Tiffany stops in her track, looking at the boy in front of her. He looks familiar. Handsome badboy face, typical gang members, light brown hair, light brown eyes. He seems kind though, so she doesn't know why he look angry.

Tiffany look at him sideways, like a bird looking at a worm, trying to figure him out. He seems like a junior, a freshman.

She puts his hand up to stop him walking towards her. To her relief, he did just that. "What do you want?" She asks, feeling confident Sehun and Chanyeol are hiding somewhere behind her. This guy picked a good spot, pretty secluded. People can't see them except they walk a long path and crane their neck.

He has the audacity to smirk, "You don't remember?"

Tiffany frowns, shaking her head. Her eyes keep watching him, not daring to look away even for a second.

"Library" he answers and Tiffany turns pale.

Finding the research section she walks on. The research section is on the very back of the library and is hard to find, she doesn't think she ever come here before.

She stops when she sees a boy taking a box of cigarette from the back of a book and put it back.

The boy spots her and then in seconds Tiffany finds herself pressed to the shelves, an arm wraps around her neck, ready to choke her anytime.
