Your school was full of people that skipped your mind daily, like ghosts walking past you, none of them were worth any sort of significance to you. It has been that way since you were born, like rough chains guarded your heart with brutal persistence, not letting it open up or feel anything. That was until you met someone, a new transfer student, Han Jisung. His brown eyes seemed to rust those chains away, and his soft features contrasting his sassy and loud persona seemed to skip your heart back to life. You fell, became enamoured, obsessed. The first person to ever make you feel anything outside of numbness, desperation twisting your mind to believe you had no other choice but to make sure nobody else could experience his love but you. And if that meant narrowing it down by summoning missing posters, then so be it.

Jisung had carried the same uninterested look in his eyes, maybe that’s what had attracted you. Any person he kept around him was a pester, only fuelling his inner irritation as the lack of emotion flowed through him stayed eminent through each and every person he met. Yet when he locked eyes with you on his first day an electric feeling surged through him, enough to feel his heart pounding inside his chest for the first time in forever. All of his anger, hopelessness, emptiness had seemed to fade away. He had to have you for himself, reaching drastic measures to make sure nobody else could feel your heart race the same way you made his.

This became a dangerous dance of oblivion to the other’s actions and feelings, stalking became a normal habit for both, the schedules clashing together perfectly like a twisted melody. Shrines of stolen items existed at both residences. The only issue? Both of the two had ‘partners’. Ones they had to vouch for suspicious activities. Yours? A male. His? A female. And soon after the swirl of combined stalking, both sides decided that the ‘partners’ had to go.

The moon lit the town dimly, casting just enough light for adjusted eyes to see efficiently, but serving darkness to those unprepared. Both the female and male lost their lives on the same night, the unsuspecting two getting carried to the public incinerator which was conveniently the same distance equal to the houses of the unfortunates. Dressed in all dark clothes to blend into the night, Jisung carried the body, slumped over his shoulder in silence. Scoping around to make sure there were no eye witnesses, then trailing his line of sight right in front of him. That’s when he felt his chest squeeze with a familiar sense of yearning, it was you. Carrying a body. His low voice sliced through the air like a freshly sharpened dagger.
