Chapter 16: As for the answer to your question
A certain long silence followed my question and Min-Cheol stared at me in surprise. Then, his gaze went to my body. His hand that had stayed on my shoulder slid towards my neck, my collarbone to be exact.
He traced the bone from my shoulder towards my neck and then slid his hand down my chest.
His touch was rather... Uncomfortable. Maybe it was because I couldn't help but think of how much pain he could make me go through with those hands of his.
His hand stopped on my chest and so did his gaze. I could feel it, his immersed attention fixed on the steady beating of my heart.
It was as if he had suddenly been bewitched or something but he listened to music Heartbeat with his hand for a while. The water on my body had already dried up by then, and cold was slowly seeping in through my pores.
I wanted to ask if he liked listening to my heartbeat but thought against it.
It was my question that landed me in this mess, to begin with.
"Hyung," he finally spoke up and slowly raised his gaze to meet mine. "Are you scared?" He asked and my eyes slightly widened.
"Why... Why would you ask that?" I asked and he tilted his head.
