Ksenia P.O.V
It's been two days since the race. I knew Ji-Hoo had won but other then that I was tying to keep my distance from F4. Jun-Pyo and Ji-hoo were now my brothers an as I said before I hated them at odds. I could stay at home since no one knew where it was but i'd have to listen to Beck and Mitchell questions. So here I was at the park sitting in a tree. Yeah I said in a tree. For as long as I could remember if I ever had a lot on my mind I would climb a tree and sit among the branches. There was were I could always sort out my mind.
I've been ignoring the guys calls. The only one I talked with was Jan-Di and Ga-Eul. When I talked to Jan-Di a little bit ago she told me the last event was swimming. So it was the source of my current problem. I was able to help Ji-Hoo with his fear, but I had no clue how to help Jun-Pyo. I learned of his fear from Jan-di . Why did they have to fight like this.
"Come on hyeong I want to swing." I jolted as I recognized the voice. Quickly I climbed higher into the tree hiding among the leaves as I looked out. Thank goodness I had worn browns and greens with my black pants.
Sure enough there was So-Young dragging Woo-Bin toward the swings. I leaned o the branch to watch them. I have missed being with my friends. I watched So-Young sat in the swing while Woo-Bin went behind her to give her a push.
"Higher! Hyeong Higher!
"Alright kiddo." He pushed her higher. I smiled at the sight. Woo-Bin was a very attentive big brother. As I watched them I moved higher in the tree.
"Higher Woo-Bin higher!"
"Any higher an you'll touch the sky."
I smiled at the pair of them. Feeling like I was intruding I went to move down to hide when there was a... snap!
"Hyeong? What was that?"
I held myself still but the damage was done the branch I was on was breaking. Damn I was a good 20 feet in the air.
"Is anyone there?" I was torn should I say anything. I felt the branch start to give way... Yep say something! Screw it!
"Woo-Bin!"
"Kenzie?" As the branch gave way I grabbed the next giving out a scream as I felt myself start to fall. "Kenzie!"
Woo-Bin P.O.V
I was enjoying my day with So-Young. It was always nice to take her to he park almost like being normal. But every since she got onto the swing I felt like I was being watched.
A branch cracking got out attention. "Hyeong? What was that?"
I moved closer to the tall tree. "Is anyone there?" No one would be in the tree would they?
"Woo-Bin!"
My heart dropped. "Kenzie?" That is when I had to dive to the side to dodge a falling branch. Looking up I saw Kenzie hanging on for dear life. "Kenzie!"
I heaved the heavy branch to the side so I could move bellow her. "Kenzie! I'm right here. Let go I'll catch you."
"I can't!"
"I will I promise."
I saw her adjust her hold."I can't Woo-Bin I'm scared."
"Come on you not scared of anything... remember."
"Woo-Bin! I'm slipping."
I felt my heart racing. "Just let go I swear to you I'll catch you."
"O...Okay." I braced my feet as I watched her take a deep breath before letting go. I held my breath till she was in my arms. We both fell to the ground from the force. Sitting up I held her trembling form in my lap cupping her cheek.
"Kenzie are you okay?"
She gave a shaking sob/ laugh. "Remind me to find a new thinking spot."
I helped her to her feet before getting up. Once she was steady I ran my hands over her head and face brushing the leaves off.
"Are you okay?"
"Yeah I'm fine I just feel stupid.'
I cupped her cheek. "Never call yourself that."
"Kenzie!" So-Young ran up wrapping her arms around Kenzie's thighs, the highest part she could reach. "Are you okay?"
"I am thanks to Woo-Bin."
So-Young grabbed my jacket. "Yep. He saved you like a prince saves a princess."
I smirked. "Really?"
"Uh huh then after the prince saves the princess she always give him a kiss,"
Kenzie chuckled. "Well then I better follow tradition."
What? She was going to kiss me? I froze as she leaned forward and kissed my cheek.
"thank you for the rescue."
"M'lady." At So-Young giggle I grabbed up So-Young. "Why you little matchmaker." I began to tickle her.
"Put me down please."
Once I sat her down she looked at Kenzie. "Woo-Bin promised to spend the day with me. Can you come too?" I looked to Kenzie waiting for her answer. I knew the one I wanted.
Ksenia P.O.V
What to do? I spend the day with Woo-bin and So-Young? She grabbed my hand. "Please!" Oh how could someone say no to such a adorable little girl. Once who was giving me puppy eyes.
"Oh alright."
"Yippee! Come on the swings are fun. "She ran to the swing.
Woo-Bin smiled. "It's good to see you, you've been missed."
"I...um..."
He took my hand in his. "No need to explain. This had been hard on all of us"
"Hyeong push me!"
"I'm coming." We pushed So-Young on the swing before she pulled me to go slid with her. We stayed at the park for another hour when So-Young said she was hungry.
"Well let's feed you. "As he picked up So-Young he looked to me. "Where's your car?"
"I had Beck drop me off he'll get me later."
"Come spend the day with us."
"What?"
"Join us."
"Are you sure?"
Woo-Bin smiled. "i wouldn't have asked if I wasn't."
"Okay."
So-Young shimmied out of his arms hopping around. "Yeah!" She took both out hands. "Let's go I'm hungry."
I looked to Woo-Bin. "Shall we swing."
"On 3."
"1."
"2."
"3." We both lifted So-Young by the arms swinging her forward.
"Weee!"
When we got to the parking lot I looked around. "Where's the Lotus?"
Woo-Bin smiled stopping at a silver BMW. "I don't drive that with So-Young." He got So-Young into the car buckling her up. I slid into the passenger seat.
"Where do you want to eat So-Young?"
"You choose hyeong."
Woo-Bin looked at me with a smirk. "I know a place."
With that he pulled out of the parking lot.
We were silent for a but before he said something. "Why were you in the tree?"
"Remember I said my thinking spot." He nodded. "Well I needed to think. These last couple of days has... stirred up parts of me I wanted to forget and gave emotions I did't know how to handle."
"Can I ask you something?"
I looked over seeing a serious expression. "What?"
he seemed to take a breath. "You know about my family. "I froze. " What about yours? You never invite anyone to your house. You have bodyguards at all times. And..."
I touched his arm. "Yes there is a secret about my family. Once I promise I'll tell you. But you have to understand my view. The last time I tried to be open about who I am it didn't end well."
Woo-Bin linked his fingers with mine squeezing. "Kristoff!"
I froze. "How?"
"Beck and Mitchell. That night after Beck sedated you Yi-Jung and I refused to hand you over till we knew what was going on."
"What did that say?"
"You opened you heart once an it was torn apart. He told us how that bastard treated you." He glanced at me. "We now understand why your so close with Jan-Di."
"She saved my life!"
He lifted out laced hands. "Remember your stronger."
I sighed. "I promise I will tell you of my family but..." Woo-Bin's phone ringing interrupted us. Woo-Bin sighed before letting go of my hand grabbing an ear piece. He put it in his ear taping the button
"Yo!This better be good." Whoever was on the other line made him tense. "I told you I had plans." I saw his knuckled go white. Reaching up I took his hand in mine. He pulled over squeezing my hand looking toward me. "I'm not messing around jabjong (bastard) I'm spending the day with So-Young!" He hung up shutting his phone off.
"Kenzie can you silence your phone?"
"Already ahd it on silence."
Woo-Bin pinched the bridge of his nose with a sigh. So-Young reached forward."Hyeong! Are you okay?"
Woo-Bin smiled toward her."Yeah I'm fine." He cut shut off the car getting out before opening my door. "Let's eat."
You could only guess who was other side of the phone conversation. An how will the rest of the day go for those two.
