Break Free

Jake's POV

"Hey, don't you think we look like some stalker looking like this?" I heard Vash whisper behind my ear sending me shivers all over.

"Hyung!" I groan in frustration as we saw an old couple staring weirdly at us. "Can you like, stop talking? We're attracting too much attention and Rosie might see us."

Though I can't see his face due to his mask, I was so damn sure he was doing weird faces base on how his eyes rolled.

We definitely look like some weird maniacs as he whispers behind my ears, both of us crouched down behind a chair on a fast food restaurant.

Yeah, we ditched the second part of our rehearsal telling our manager that I'm not feeling well and Vash hyung saying something about checking up on me.

But in reality, we're both out following Rosie as she roams around the mall, shopping for her clothes.

We surely are both dead once the members find out what we were doing.

To our fans’, sorry for ditching rehearsal once. I promise to be good after this. I silently muttered as if our fans would hear.

"Jake-hey, did you bring your card with you? I'm getting really hungry." he once again whispered and I swatted his hand over my shoulder.

"Hyung, I swear if you don't shut up, I'm going to kick your balls." I screeched, getting really annoyed. His eyes widen at my words as he covered his manhood before me.

Why did I even ask him to come with me?

With a full black get up on, a cap and a mask, I look like someone who's ready to grab someone else's child.

And Vash hyung wearing some leather jacket with his face covered doesn't really help us get lesser attention.

On the other hand, Rosie was across the hall before us, staring blankly at the scene before her as a few people walk back and forth, the food she ordered almost left untouched.

"Do you think she'll get mad if I eat her food?" he asked before slowly standing up from our hiding.

My eyes widen at his movement, my hands reacting instinctively, pulling him back. I may have used too much force as his butt ended up kissing the floor.

"Ummp!!!"

"f**k y-" my hands landed over his mouth as he was about to finish cursing.

My eyes still focused on the maiden from afar as if she was enveloped unto deep thought.

I wonder what she's thinking?

Not a minute had passed when she suddenly stood up from her seat, grabbing a few of the bags from the chair beside her.

My cheeks blushed a little as I saw the brand showing on one of the paper bags.

Victoria's Secret

Fuck.

The brand with the world's best bras, sexiest panties & lingerie. And not to mention, the most beautiful Supermodels.

My mind started imagining her wearing some kind of lingerie while sleeping and I internally grunted as I felt myself starting to have a boner.

I looked down on the floor to try to control my hormones.

Calm the f**k down little man. You're going to get yourself in a huge embarrassment if you keep this up.

Once I was sure she had walked a few meters away from us, both Vash hyung and I stood up from our hiding place earning a lot more irritated stares from the people around us.

I bowed in embarrassment before we quickly went ahead and follow the lady.

"Jake, I think we should just show ourselves to her." Vash muttered as he walked awkwardly within the huge crowd of people scattered around the area.

Instead of answering this weird individual before me, my eyes admire Rosie's back profile instead, her long white legs full into view. The way my shirt hung on her delicate skin gives me so much satisfaction.

Even more satisfaction whenever we finish a complete choreography, since you know, our choreographer always changes everything up.

I bite my lower lip as I continuously follow. At this point, I no longer care about Vash anymore.

I squinted my eyes as I realized how my jumper looks more like a dress to her and I am so damn thankful that she decided to wear some shorts underneath after I noticed some guys checking her out.

I left one of my huge black jumper for her to wear since she, apparently, doesn't have enough clothes with her.

Just the sight of her makes me feel thousands of emotion all over.

I am confused.

Hell, I am so confusing as to why I even ditched rehearsal to follow her instead.

It has only been three days but she got me all curious.

She seemed mysterious and I feel like there is something that she's hiding.

Why am I determined to find out? I don't know.

I can't even say I like her.

Is three days good enough to say you like someone?

I shake my head from the thought.

I heard her telling my sister over the phone that she only brought three pairs of shorts and shirts along with a few pair of undies, making her blush real hard once she realized I was walking right past her and heard her last words.

So, instead of making her borrow a shirt from any of the boys, I took the initiative and gave her mine instead.

Shut up. You just like seeing her on your clothes.

"Wow." I heard Vash muttered in amazement as Rosie entered on a very big store with a lot of musical instruments around.

Since the store was so big and there are a few people inside anyways, we decided to come in.

"Do you think she knows how to play some instrument?" he excitedly chatters.

As sensible as I can be, I decided to forget the thought of kicking this older man on his butt.

Vash started checking out the instruments himself but my eyes never left hers, her side profile giving me such a picture perfect view.

And then her eyes landed on a very beautiful guitar.

She was staring at it for so long like it is some precious diamond and I wonder if she wanted it or she just find it beautiful.

She must have been staring at it for too long so one of the guys moved towards her and I had to walk closer so I can listen to what they were talking about.

Thank God, Rosie seemed preoccupied and failed to notice my presence.

"Do you want to try it?" the man smiled at her and my heart skipped a beat when her eyes glisten at the man's word.

"Can I?" She asked cheerfully, her eyes shining so bright.

"Cute..." I can't help but whisper.

"You can if you know how to play. Just be careful with it." the man then took the guitar off from the shelf as Rosie put down all the bags from her hands.

Just as when her hands touched the guitar, she squealed and the man assisting him looked amused.

She slowly sat down on a chair right beside her and started tuning the guitar.

She looks so serious like her life depends on it.

Not two minutes passed when she started playing some melodies, a few people checking her out but she seemed oblivious.

Her mind must have been too focused on playing for not to notice a few people starting to crowd around her.

Her eyes, she looked lost, immersed on what her doing. Until she started playing a familiar song.

I knew that song... Amnesia... It was a song by that famous Australian boyband.

I wonder what makes her play it.

Just then, an angelic voice soon boomed around the store, my mouth hangs wide open as I realize that she's started to sing.

The guy earlier looked as surprise as I was and a few more people stopped to listen to her sing.

Beautiful... She and her voice...

I moved closer, my eyes never leaving hers. Her eyes were close as she sings her heart out and oh boy, her voice sounded heaven.

“'Cause I'm not fine at all…”

My eyes studied her face and I remembered Yohan hyung's words.

"She lost someone..."

Is this what he meant?

Are the words on the song her exact feelings?

Her voice cracked a little, not because she was struggling but because of too much emotion that she's pouring to the song.

The lyrics was so hurtful but the way she delivers it feels a thousand more painful that the words coming out of her.

The clarity on her voice lessened as her tears threaten to fall and I had to stop myself from pulling her over, hug her and tell her everything is alright.

“Tell me this is just a dream… Cause I'm really not fine at all…”

She's not fine. And I here I am, being an asshole trying to stalk her just because I was so damn curious.

As she finishes her song, the people surrounding her started clapping and of course, Vash being the weird ball that he is clapped like a seal which didn't left unnoticed to her eyes.

After one second, our eyes meet and my world stopped when she looked at me like she was telling me something.

She's hurting and my manly ego tells me to do something about it. Was it? And more importantly, should I?
