Strange Land || SKZ Lee Know

"I like kids." Dahyun shurgged.

I grunted. "We have more than enough people in the medic team. I want to go out there to help."

Dahyun sighed. "You know, I sometimes mistaken you and Chan are the ones who are dating each other. You guys act like a married couple."

I scowled at her comment.

"It was just the two of you in the beginning, right? How in the world have you two not slept together?"

I stopped rubbing my switchblade on the whetstone and froze at the question.

"What?" She tilted her head to get a better look at my face.

I realized I made a face that I shouldn't have and proceeded back to my task.

"Oh my God," Dahyun gasped. "oh mY GOD! When???"

"Could you please lower down your voice??" I hissed at her.

"Was it recently? Did you sneak behind Binnie???—"

"No, Dahyun! How could you say that??" I immediately cut her off. "I would never, ever do that to Binnie. It was back when we barely knew each other."

After what happened to Nami, I wanted to die. I assumed my parents were dead since there was no way that we could ever meet again. I was alone. I couldn't feel anything. I didn't care what would happen to me and kept wishing that everything would just stop. Chan cotinued to remind me to not give up and said there was still hope for us to live. He then begged me to stay alive for him, so I kissed him.

And it led to something else.

I was clearly not in my right mind and I used him for it. Until this day, I regret what I did to him that night.

Dahyun smirked, "well. Whatever. Now come. We left you a whole sandwich and I think the SKZ are still waiting for you."

I closed my switchblade and stood up from the freezing porch. "I'm going to check on Binnie."

I knocked on Changbin's door and there was no answer. I knocked again harder and longer.

The door finally swung open revealing Changbin in his underwear. Hair messy. Seemed like he just woke up.

"Jesus, Nara." He held his face and inhaled. "What time is it?"

"And why are you in your underwear in a weather like this?"

I stepped inside his house where it immediately to his bedroom. His sweater and pants from last night were scattered on the floor. Weird. He was usually an organized and neat person.

"Where were you last night after dinner?" I raised an eyebrow at him.

Changbin walked past me, giving me a peck on my lips before crashing back to his bed. "I didn't feel good. So I went back early. Sorry. I should've told you."

"Your room is freezing and you're naked. I wonder why you haven't caught a cold already, have you?" I said. "Come on. Get up, and get dressed. We're going to have breakfast." I picked up his sweater that was on the floor and threw it on top of him.

Changbin sighed heavily. "Fine."

I waited for him to get ready outside.

And that was when Hyerin showed up. With my boyfriend's jacket on her hands.

"Hi, Nara." She greeted me with a forced smile. "Is Changbin home?"

"Yeah." I answered impassively.
