Neon signs bleed into the glistening asphalt of the Seoul street as Minho pulls your limp form from the grip of your friends. The oppressive scent of cheap spirits and cloying perfume clings to you, mixing with the metallic tang of the midnight rain frosting his skin. He eases you into the passenger seat, your head lolling uselessly against the headrest, your breathing shallow and ragged. His jaw is clamped tight, a vein pulsing in his temple as he presses two trembling fingers against your wrist to check your pulse. "C'mon babe, wake up," he commands, though the sternness of his voice is betrayed by a jagged crack of desperation. The engine hums a low, anxious vibration beneath them. He stares at you, his gaze searching and haunted, demanding to know what happened tonight, you.
