A Little Bit Catastrophic (Jaebeom)

"Oh," you withdrew your hand. You didn't know much about cats. You only wanted to help. If Lim Jaebeom wasn't there to inform you, and the cats got sick because of feeding them something they can't take yet, there must also be a reserved seat on hell for you, next to the person who abandoned the poor things.

Lim Jaebeom cleared his throat. "You don't have to be guilty. I just knew that because I have cats on my parents' house. I didn't mean to sound harsh."

It made you realise that you didn't know much about Lim Jaebeom. He could be said to be popular because a lot of girls on your grade, and maybe even lower grades, outspokenly admire him. He's tall, and well-built, and now that you've got a chance to look at his face, he was pretty cute. Maybe at school, he was more of attractive because he rarely smiled and had a way of looking that could intimidate anyone. But right then, with the back of his head wet because of the rain dropping from his umbrella, the way his eyes squint as he looks down at the kittens in worry, the way he frowns while thinking what little he could do, causing his lips to be on a straight line and emphasise his fluffy-looking cheeks, Lim Jaebeom was cute.

You let out a shriek when thunder roared unceremoniously.

"Are you okay?" he asked, a hand on your arm to steady you.

You nodded and sat back properly; you almost fell if he didn't get ahold of you.

"Seems like the rain won't be stopping any soon. It's getting darker too," he observed grimly.

You could only nod again. "What should we do? We can't leave them here."

Lim Jaebeom looked so torn. He obviously wanted to take the kitties, but he's not the kind of badboy who breaks dorm rules. In fact, he's the type to follow rules strongly, even though it breaks his heart to do so. You had seen him begrudgingly give his precious earrings when there was a search at school. He wasn't wearing it then, but he knew it was prohibited for boys to have them, so he let the student council confiscate it.

"I can't," he said while shaking his head. You looked at him inquiringly. "I can't leave them. I won't be able to sleep knowing they're out here."

"What should we do then?"

Lim Jaebeom doesn't answer you, but instead took the box in his arms slowly. He had to let go of his umbrella so he could hold the box properly, so you took the initiative to put yours over the kittens, picking up his with your other hand. The both of you could handle a little rain, you reasoned to yourself. The babies were important.

"Where will you take them?" you asked, struggling with the umbrella since Lim Jaebeom was then standing. You're not sure whether to hold it above him or by his chest, just enough for the kittens to be covered.

You decided on the former and positioned as closer as you could so all of you would have shield from the rain. You followed him out of the now dark alley.

"I'll ask around if someone would be willing to give them shelter for the night. I'll promise that tomorrow, I'll get them again to find someone who can really adopt them."

"But don't you live at a dorm? There's a curfew, right? What if you haven't found a place for them then? You're all going to stay outside?"

He turned to you sideways. "Will you take us in then?"

You didn't know how to react. Was that an attempt to joke? His face was straight, but there's a glint of teasing in his eyes. "No...? I mean, I can't even bring home animals, much more guys."

His lips turned a bit on the side. "Don't worry then. I'll just crash on my friend's place if ever that happens. As for you," he shifted so he can gently push the umbrella back on your head, enough to cover only you and the box of kittens he tucked on his side. He took his own umbrella from your other hand and opened it expertly, "you should go home. I'll see you in school tomorrow."
