Injured Heart

Chapter IV


Well, here goes another chapter of Injured Heart. Thank you everyone for your reviews. Chapter V should be out next week sometimes.


She sat there on the floor, her hands resting in her lap...crying.

His heart sank. His heart ached from making her cry. His body ached to reach out to her-to wipe her tears away, and it was taking every little ounce of control he had not to comply.

"Then just how did you mean it?" she asked, looking up slightly. Her orbs were like pools of sorrow, and her faced was soaked from the salty water.


"Tae.." Ga-woon said, finally giving in. In one fluid motion, he slid off of his seat and onto the floor, ignoring his own wounds that seemed to scream. The only thing that was on his mind was Tae.

"I was just kidding. Your ass ins't troublesome.." he said in a soothing tone.

"Yes it is..." she sobbed.

"Tae, listen to me..." he began as he started to rub her bac in circular motions, trying to soothe her crying, "You're not trouble for me.."

"If I'm not, howcome you're always getting into fights when I'm around?- Because of me, and my big mouth..." she began to sob harder.

"Tae, please quit crying." he asked.

"Why?" she asked, as she raised her head off of his shoulder. "Why do you take up for me all the time?"

"B-because...you're apart of my gang.."

"But..you don't do that for anyone else, except Kun."

He sighed. It would have to come out sooner or later. "Tae, that's because...Kun's my best friend, and..well..."

She continued to cry, and he couldn't take it anymore.

"Dammit Tae! Quit crying! I protect you because I love you!"

She gasped as her head jolted to look towards him. He loved her? Was he joking? The salty liquid still ran down her cheeks as she sat there and searched his orbs for unheard laughter, but there was none- rather there was only seriousness, concern, and love-for her.


Well, she knows it now.
