"Less Than Zero" | Dahyun x Male Reader

"Thereee you go!", the pale girl said to you, patting your chest after tying your necktie on your police uniform.

"Thank you Dubu.", you said to her, grinning. You looked at yourself in the mirror, checking your look with your uniform today.

"You don't need to check yourself in the mirror, nothing ever changed about your look.", Dahyun backhugged you, now both of you are staring in the mirror.

"Then what's my look that never changed?", you looked at her through the mirror.

"You being handsome as always.", Dahyun confidently answered. You just smiled sheepishly, controlling your blush that is starting to emerge on your cheeks.

"It's early in the morning and you're being a heart shaker already, aren't you huh?", you turned around to your girlfriend and squished her cheeks, gritting your teeth because of her cuteness.

"Is there a time that I never been like that to you?", Dahyun smirked. You just rolled your eyes at her tease. The two of you just laughed.

"You know what, better prepare yourself next. You are going to be late.", you playfully pushed her aside. Dahyun just reached for her beauty items. "Imma go wait downstairs, ok?", she hummed in response.

To explain, you are a cop based in Seocho district in Seoul. You are working for day shift so everyday you need to wake up early to prepare for work. Your girlfriend Kim Dahyun's job is a music teacher in Seocho High School. She mostly teaches instruments like piano and guitar because that's the ones where she is mostly good at.

You and Dahyun met 5 years ago when you saved her from getting harassed and molested by a gang men near an alley. You were just on the way back to the police station along with your buddy cop Lee Felix when you two saw her being on that scenario. You stopped the car immediately, and you arrived to help her. Felix saw what you're about to do so he helped you fight off these punks. They surrendered and you checked Dahyun. That right there, is the start where you two slowly became close to each other.

You are always being looked by Dahyun as her hero. You helped her so much through everything in her personal problems and some other things. She owe her life to you, and she wished that she could repay you everything for what you've done to her. That's also the reason why she starts to fall in love deeply with you. She sees you as a perfect boyfriend and husband material. You have the qualities that Dahyun thinks other girls will be dying to look for.

Even you, your feelings for her grew more and more everytime you're with her. Everything about her is just attractive to you. You realized that Dahyun is cheerful and jolly person but deep inside she's vulnerable. She can easily break and when you now confirmed to yourself that you see Dahyun more than as a friend, you sweared in your life that a girl like Dahyun deserves to be loved, cared, served and to be protected.

You two confessed to each other one day, and both of you reciprocated each other's love. Now you two are now dating until in the present day. Still staying strong despite of the obstacles and challenges you two need to cross and face.

Back at the moment in your house, you go downstairs and sat at the couch. You used your cellphone for a while to check something in social medias. Then before opening an app, you saw a notification containing a message from your colleague Felix.

You clicked on it and read the message carefully in silent tone.

"Dude, please better go to the police station ASAP. We have some big problem to face, serious personal matter. Thanks... and also, morning!"
Sent by Felix

After reading the message, your eyebrows met in curiousity. You freezed for a second thinking deeply what's that serious matter about. Also, you found it weird and suspicious because there's something different about Felix. He doesn't say please to you when he wants your presence at the police station so it looks like he is definitely begging for you to show up. Second, he didn't mention your police chief this time because mostly, Felix only informs you this type of message because the police chief said so. You know for sure it will be about a meeting for a new case to help with... but this one isn't, so it makes you wonder how personal it is.

You gulped in nervousness and became silent for a while as the thoughts running inside your mind. Minute later, Dahyun came down from the stairs now wearing a flower-designed apricot dress, black heels and gray shoulder bag.

"Hey, did you placed your lunch box on your bag?", Dahyun asked you, holding your shoulders from behind.

"Yeah I did.", you said. "Anythings okay now? We should go, Felix informed me some serious matter about god knows what it is.", you stood up from your couch, grabbing your bag beside you.

"Yup, I'm ready.", Dahyun answered. She just nods at you after you said your reason why you two should leave now. The two of you exit the house, locked the doors, you started your motorcycle and drove off to Seocho High School.

"Enjoy your day, Dubu ok?", you faced your girlfriend, standing in front of the school building.

"You too, Y/NN. Be safe also at your duty.", and the two of you pulled each other for a kiss.
After ending it, you saw both you and Dahyun's friend, Minatozaki Sana who is Dahyun's colleague doing some fake coughs.

"Hehe, sorry to interrupt your sweet moment.", Sana giggled. "Good morning to you two!"

"Good morning Satang" "Good morning Sana-unnie."

"If I may take Dahyun away from you now, Y/N. Uhh we have a meeting right now in our faculty before we start the class.", she grabbed Dahyun's arm, pulling her carefully from you.

"What's the meeting about?", Dahyun asked.

"Preparation for the upcoming anniversary of this school."

"Oh okay.", Dahyun stepped closer beside Sana. "You better go now too, love. You said you have some urgent to attend to , right?

"Oh yeah, sure.", you said. "I'll go off now. Bye you two!"

"Bye!" "Goodbye! Thank you for letting me steal Dahyun from you starting today!"

"Hey you better stop there, Snake! I didn't mean it to be literal.", you teasingly shouted at Sana, pointing her while squinting your eyes. You call her snake because Sana has this clingy and seductive side where she uses it to tease others. Sana just laughed at your words. You start to walk through your motorcycle to head onto the Seocho District Police Station next.

--------------------------------

"Oh finally you're here!", Felix immediately stood up from his seat after reading a magazine. He approaches you after as you enter the police station.

"Hey, what's with the message. Tell me about it, did something happened?", you go straight forward already, not letting to waste any more time. Felix frowned even more, making you stare at him closely. What's wrong with him?

"Uhh dude, I wanted you to come here because I need to say this to you face to face. I know this will concern you much so I needed to meet with you personally.", Felix said, scratching his nape. "A bus transporting some inmates got hijacked by some of the allies of one of the criminals being moved in to another police station."

"And...?"

"The driver and the other cops were hospitalized, they got beaten up by the inmates who got escaped. Some of those inmates were from this station...

... including your former bestfriend."

"WHAT?", your voice raised so high that you caught everyone's attention inside the station. They looked at you one by one. You said sorry to them after and the others returned back on doing their own business. "YOU GOTTA BE KIDDING RIGHT?"

"I hope so too, but... sorry dude it's true. Cha Eunwoo was one of those inmates reported who got escaped earlier."

"What time it happened?"

"6:30 AM."

You sighed heavily. You put both of your hands on your waist as you looked around the station, tense is all over your body. You know you're so screwed up right now after learning that news.

Why are you worried? Some little flashback, Cha Eunwoo was your former bestfriend. Actually, he also has feelings for Dahyun but since you were the one who won Dahyun's heart, he became envy and jealous of you. It was fine for him at first. He didn't got angry at you because he blames himself that it's his fault anyways for being late. But, you did something that made him completely change.

You were the one who arrested Eunwoo after learning that he sells and uses drugs such as marijuana, shabu, ecstasy. He begged for you to keep this instead as a secret and not putting him in jail since you are his bestfriend, but you didn't let yourself feel pity for her because you were a man of law and good deeds so you instead put him in jail with no hesitation, as you think that this is for the better where this can teach him a lesson. As a bestfriend, you want to show what's need to be done right. You feel so disappointed at him for being actually like this secretly after having years of friendship together.

Meanwhile Eunwoo, since you broke his trust of him being saved by you, he felt betrayed by you. He became angry and full of hate that he sweared that he will come back one day and ruin your life just like what you did to him. Not feeling intimidated by that but you kept that words as you prepared yourself ready once that actually happens, and that's what exactly happened right now.

You were about to face your former bestfriend again who is now definitely focused on revenge and you know he will come for you.

"We better do something now dude, you know he's just everywhere around you. He can end your life if he wanted to.", Felix said to you, his face is full of concern now on you.

" No ifs, he's definitely gonna kill me. He's not the good-hearted Eunwoo I once knew.", you said. "Wait, you said he could be anywhere at these times, right?"
