Luhan's POV

I sat in the hospital beside Borin's bed, she was a mess. Her hair was tangled and there were bruises all over her body. The cut on her arm was deeper than I expected which gave me an unsettling feeling. Borin rested her hand on mine as I started to cut an apple for her to eat.

"You don't need to do that," She smiled at me.

She looked tired and her eyes were swollen from last night's crying. Immediately after she was cut, I had taken her from the studio to the hospital. With Chanyeol, Suho, and Chen by my side, we witnessed her crying her eyes out in the middle of the night and it broke my heart. I couldn't wrap my head around just what kind of person Ling was, it was terrifying.

Borin told us about how Ling was the one who egged the stage so that there would be more attention and pity on her. When I asked her about getting the incident where she was beaten up by the fans, Borin didn't seem to know anything about that which I assumed wasn't related to any of this.

The other three members had left this morning to go home for some sleep and now it was only me and Borin in the small hospital room.

"You should go Lu-hyung,"

I looked at her beaten up body and shook my head. "I don't want to face Ling for the time being."

She frowned. "I've forgiven her, don't be so hard on her."

I moved closer to her and tilted my head in confusion. "She did this to you! Why are you so unaffected by any of this."

"She's my friend."

"Some friend," I muttered under my breath.

Moments later the door to the hospital room swung open with a bang and Nam Soon walked in angrily.

"Ling didn't do this," He stopped at the foot of her bed and pointed a finger at her. "You tell the truth now."

"What are you doing," I got up and moved to stand in front of him pushing him further from her. Behind me, Borin started to sniffle loudly until eventually she started to sob. I turned and placed a hand on her shoulder glaring up at Nam Soon who furrowed his eyebrows even more.

"Why are you doing this?" He whispered.

"Why won't you believe me? Nam Soon, we were friends longer!" Borin muttered at him between tears.

He shook his head and left the room. "Not with someone like you."

Borin's tears didn't stop until noon when she eventually cried herself asleep in my arms.

Just who was Ling, how well did I actually know her?

Ling's POV

I sat pacing the living room waiting for the three members to return from the hospital. They haven't come back since they left after the studio yesterday. I recalled the blood that was on the floor and I shuddered. That cut had to be deep.

Chen and Suho were the first to enter the dorm.

"How is she?" I rushed to their side just as Chanyeol walked in.

"Why don't you go and see for yourself, and while you're at it, apologize." Chanyeol pushed me back and walked upstairs.

Chen avoided my eyes and followed after Chanyeol.

"Ling," Suho crossed his arms. "I'll give you one more chance to tell me the truth."

"She didn't do it," Sehun bellowed from the kitchen. "Ling you don't have to explain yourself to them."

Suho sighed and retreated back to his room.

My shoulders shook and I hugged myself to steady them. Sehun walked over and held me in a hug, rocking me back and forth. "It's okay Ling, we're here by your side."

I nodded and held back tears. Luhan still did not return to the dorm and I doubt that he would. Although none of this had been reported in the press, I was sure that if it did get out, it will be the end of EXO. After all this, I was certain that Korea was not the place for me to be. Whether this was running away from my problems or not, I had decided to take the first flight back to China tomorrow morning. I had arranged things with Zhang-ge and told no one about my departure. EXO should not be involved with me any longer.

Sehun helped me back to the living room and passed me a cup of coffee. "My coffee isn't as great as Xiumin Hyung's but, I hope it's still alright."

I nodded and took a sip. It was too bitter for my taste. He was right, Xiumin made a much better coffee. Somehow, he knew exactly what type of coffee I wanted to drink every morning and how I liked it. I smiled into the cup staring at the dark liquid in the cup. I'll be leaving Xiumin behind, Xiumin, Sehun, Kai, Baekhyun, D.O, and Lay. All of them believed me in a heart beat and stood by me all yesterday night when I felt my worst.

I felt Sehun's hand on my back as he leaned closer to me. "I don't know what Borin's problem is, what did she have against you. Ling, you didn't do anything to tick her off did you?"

My mind flashed to our conversation in the back of the building. I looked at Sehun who's face was inches away from mine. His eyes were full of concern and his lips were held in a tight line.

"You," I muttered. "I ticked her off by being with you."

He widened his eyes and tilted his head waiting for me to say more.

"You were her bias," I muttered, smiling to myself, realising just how foolish this sounds. "I was too close to you for her liking."

Sehun ran his hand through his hair and sighed. "Wow, for her to go that far, so extreme."

"Thing is, I didn't even know."

Sehun snickered and grabbed my phone from my hand. I opened my mouth to complain but he grabbed me by the waist and pulled me closer to him. Our mouths made contact and he kissed me hard pushing me back down on the couch with his body on top of mine. He pinned my hand on the couch with his free hand while his other took pictures.

Sehun's POV

Around the seventh time I pressed the volume button to take a photo I found myself lost in her kiss. What had originally been a plan to taunt Borin turned into something different. I placed her phone on the ground and found myself intoxicated with her soft, sweet lips. I held myself up with my left hand in her hair supported by my elbow and the other hand moved slowly from her hips and up her shirt. She broke free to let out a small gasp of air before I pressed my lips to hers again, my knee moved to pin down between her legs. With the company's dating restrictions, it was obvious that I had my urges, but never had I felt this way before. Every inch of my body was hot and twitching with anticipation.

My heart pounded against my chest as the two of us fused into one on the couch. Just as I was about to pull back her shirt, a hand ripped me back by my collar and choked me. I fell to the ground coughing, my mind still drugged from her kiss.

I looked up to see Xiumin staring down at me with his hands in his pockets, his face was that of absolute fury.
