It had been days since Eli and Olly's conversation and Daniel was still fixated on the two. Even Gun had started noticing his wandering mind and to counter that he had been training Daniel even harder than before which was both annoying but also exciting to an extent. Daniel wanted to know, he wasn't usually this nosy about other people's business but whatever was going on between the two Hostel leaders needed to be fixed or else there were going to be some heavy consequences that Daniel didn't want to deal with. Going to Gun about it was useless since the man already stated that he didn't involve himself in 'melodramatic' situations like theirs so he was out.

He could ask another Hostel member but the chances of them unloading their past onto him were low.

Letting out a sigh, Daniel watches the fog his warm breath creates in the cold night. It was the middle of the night, just a while before he had to go train with Gun during their usual time and he needed to buy some necessities that had run out. The convenience store wasn't the one he usually went to, it was further away from the CC but the closer one was currently closed due to some personal store matter so Daniel had to trek to this one.

Plastic bag and items in hand, Daniel blows into his cold hands as he starts heading back to the compound, still in deep thought.

Could he ask Samuel? The Big Deal member seemed like a gossip, perhaps he would know.

Just as he was deciding on whether or not to ask Samuel, a round of drunken laughter was heard. Daniel walked past a group of men who clearly had too much to drink, they were rowdy and acting out. He pulls his shoulders up and tucks his head down, walking by as quickly as possible.

"Hey, sweet thing!" Some guys hoot and the others laugh.

"Dude that's a guy" Another person slurs out.

"Well shit, he's a pretty guy that's for sure1"

Cringing at their words, Daniel ignores them. He hoped that his lack of response would be enough to deter them but it wasn't.

"Hey now! Don't ignore us! I reckon we could show you a real good time, a better time than anyone could give you" Another guy calls and this time they turn around to start following him. Daniel curses and starts walking faster. He didn't feel safe in the slightest, his heart was beating fast and his adrenalin was pumping.

"Hah Look at him running away, it's like he thinks we'll actually do something to him. We're not gay" Another grunts and Daniel wanted to shout back, if they weren't going to do anything why were they following him? Why was it always him gaining these unwanted advances?

Daniel knew that he was strong enough to take them down but he'd rather avoid a fight. Yet as they started getting faster and closer, Daniel didn't see any other outcome other than one that involved his fists. As nervous as he was, he knew he could do it, Gun wouldn't have trained him if that weren't the case. He could help himself.

"Hey wait!" Someone grabs his shoulder and he turns around to shrug it off.

"Please leave me alone" Daniel grunts and they laugh at him.

"So uptight, I wonder what else is tight" They roar with laughter at the joke, surrounding Daniel who was eyeing them with disdain. They were disgusting.

"Very funny, can I go now?" Daniel asks a frown painted onto his face to prevent any other emotion from showing. He could barely hear them over the sound of his own heart. What was it with men and approaching him like this? Didn't Gun say that it was because Daniel acted like some pure virgin? Didn't he say that this type of thing would stop after they started doing 'stuff' together?

"A pretty face like yours shouldn't frown so much, I bet all the ladies love looking at it, hell even the guys probably get off to you" They try reaching to touch his face but he swerves out of their reach and grabs their wrists.

"Don't touch me" He glares and at this point, the men were getting pissed.

"You brat, you should treat your elders with respect! You should pound that into you, shouldn't we?" They shout, filthy smirks on their faces and just as they are about to start revving up for a fight the sound of a siren startles the group.

"Is there a problem here?" A voice calls and the group turns to see a police car pull up.

Immediately the group stands down.

"Nothing's wrong, officer" They grumble and start dispersing and leaving Daniel. The Doctor grumbles at the reaction but turns to greet the officer who had saved him.

"Inspector Kwak" Daniel nods and the officer nods at him.

"You shouldn't be walking by yourself at this time of night" Jichang replies as he parks the car and observes Daniel up and down. "Get in, I'll give you a lift to the CC if that's where you're headed" He offers and Daniel accepts quickly, fearing that if he didn't go with the officer those men would return.

Heading towards the other side of the car, Daniel hops in and buckles his seat belt before the police car starts cruising down the road.

"Thanks for helping me back there, those guys were annoying" Daniel sighs and the officer nods.

"I've dealt with them before, usually they just go around picking a fight with other people. Although this time was different, it didn't seem like they were seeking a fight specifically" He hums as he pushes his glasses up the bridge of his nose.

Daniel shivers at the implications.

"I can handle myself," Daniel replies.

"I'm sure you can but out on the streets there are no rules, those guys would have played dirty, even dirtier than your fighters in the CC" Jichang informs as he makes a turn. "No matter what those founders try to advertise there are still rules in the CC, out in these streets, the streets that I protect, there's a lot that goes under the radar and it is up to me to make sure it all comes to light" He explains.

"Is this you trying to give me the talk about how the CC is bad and the police are great, we had this conversation the last time too" Daniel muses with a smile, trying to shake off the uneasy feeling he had about the group that had been following him.

Jichang glances at Daniel before clicking his tongue.

"You don't have to act tough Doctor, you're allowed to feel afraid" Jichang offers gently and Daniel feels his face warm up.

"I'm alright, you rescued me like a knight in shining armour so what do I have to be afraid of?" Daniel replies, putting on a smile but Jichang shakes his head.

"Unfortunately I deal with a lot of victims, if you're shaken up because of what happened that's fine. You're human, only someone who wasn't wouldn't react at all" The car comes to a stop outside the CC and the man parks the car. A hand is on his shoulder and the moment he's touched, Daniel could feel his earlier apprehension and anxiety spill.

"T-They were really scary" Daniel replies, his voice shaking as he feels his eyes grow warm with tears. "I was really scared" He adds, choking on his voice as he speaks and Jichang lets out a sigh.

"It's okay kiddo, let it out" He hums, reaching out to pat his head as Daniel looks down to avoid giving the man a full view of his tears. It felt pathetic. Daniel was strong, he was stronger than a lot of people and yet he was still crying over the thought of what could have happened to him. He was a kid. He was a Doctor. He was barely out of his training wheels and he had never experienced a situation like that, especially alone in the middle of the night. Amongst the people of the CC, in a crowd, he was fine with dealing with that sort of situation because he knew there were people around.

People who would step in or say something if he got loud enough. But on the streets where there wasn't anyone around. It was scary.

'He can fight' is what his mind supplied but what good was knowing how to fight if your body freezes up? What good is knowing how to fight when you don't use it when you need it? What was the point in Gun teaching him anything at all if Daniel acted like a coward? He could jump in and fight Ryohei, he could fight those Gian guys alongside the Jae Won High students yet he couldn't do anything now. Why?

The hand on his head leaves and Daniel could faintly hear the car turning off and the door opening. Soon enough the door on Daniel's side opened and Jichang stood there with his arms outstretched and Daniel couldn't help but seek the older man's warmth.

He hugs the man, wet face pressed into the uniformed chest as Jichang rubs circles around his back.

"You're okay. You're safe" He hums patiently.

It takes a moment before Daniel can get himself under control but once he does he pulls away from Jichang who offers him a handkerchief. Silently patting his head, silver eyes not leaving Daniel.

"Thank you…I don't know where that came from" Daniel states, his voice solemn as he eyes Jichang.

"No thanks needed" Jichang nods as he pulls his hand back.

"No really, you didn't need to comfort me but you took the time out of your patrol to do so. I also ruined your jacket" Daniel notes the tear stains and Jichang shakes his head.

"Honestly it's fine. I have younger brothers so seeing you in distress reminded me of them" He replies honestly and Daniel nods.

"You have younger brothers?" He inquires lightly and Jichang nods.

"Two younger brothers although at this point the two of them look larger than me, all grown up and old now. They certainly don't need my help anymore" A smile appears on the stoic man's face before he looks back at Daniel. "What about you Daniel Park? Any siblings?" He asks and Daniel shakes his head.

"None but I had always wanted a younger sibling, perhaps a little sister" He hums before standing up, plastic bag in hand. "I've taken up enough of your time tonight, I should get going" Daniel states and Jichang shakes his head again.

"You didn't waste my time, this is all a part of my job" He replies easily as he shuts the door and leans against the car.

"Well…I guess I'll see you around" Daniel tells the older man who nods. He takes a cigarette to smoke, lighting it up and watching as Daniel walks to the CC. The entire time he's inputting the code to get in, turning around to give one final wave before slipping in, Officer Jichang was present and watching silently. As the door closes with a click, only then does the man get back into his car, start it up and slink away into the night.

Daniel was still frazzled by what had occurred, disoriented between heading to his office to calm himself down further or heading straight to the gym to meet up with Gun, scared that if he was late the older man would punish him again. Despite the crying session and Jichang's calming nature, he still didn't feel completely settled yet he decided to head to the gym anyway.

Walking through the door, Gun was already present and shirtless, messing around with a boxing bag. The minute he realised he wasn't alone he turned around and marched towards Daniel.

"Took you long enough Doc, here I was thinking you were going to skip again" Gun mentions and Daniel shuffles towards him before gesturing to the bag.

"Sorry, I had to go to the convenience store to pick some things up" He mumbles, not in the mood to start an argument or fall into banter with the other man.

There was a pause in the atmosphere yet Daniel still didn't look up to meet Gun's firm gaze that hadn't left his body.

"What's wrong?" Gun questions and Daniel couldn't help but feel surprised that the other was able to pick up on it so fast.

"Nothings wrong, why do you think somethings wrong?" Daniel retorts as he passes the Founder to settle his things on the floor yet before he can get too far the man reaches out and grabs him.

It was a similar action with the same force that one of those creepy men had attempted earlier. Immediately Daniel tenses before snatching his arm away with a yelp.

Gun pulls back in bewilderment. He hadn't grabbed Daniel too harshly, he certainly didn't warrant such a reaction from the younger man.

The silence between them stretched out, Daniel looking at the floor, not willing to meet the older man's gaze whereas Gun looked between his hand and the Doctor's raised shoulders.

"Daniel, I'll give you one chance and one chance only to explain what the hell is wrong and what the hell that was" Gun grits out, he doesn't appreciate the lack of communication from the other.

The silence continues, one individual expecting an explanation and the other hoping for it to be brushed aside as nothing. It continues long enough for the air to become stale, almost suffocating until eventually it's Daniel who caves in.

"I'm sorry" He mumbles and Gun's frown deepens.

"I didn't ask for an apology, I asked for you to tell me what the hell is going on" He restates, approaching the other who backs away quickly, instinctively letting loose a whimper of fear. Gun pauses.

Daniel has never been scared of him. He's been nervous, anxious perhaps but more so he's been cocky, angry and very not tolerant of the older man's attitude. He argues, he bites back or throws casual insults at Gun when he thinks the other man isn't listening but never has he flinched in fear. Never has he been scared.

"No, I mean I'm sorry for being such a useless student. I'm sorry that even though you've been training me relentlessly I'm still so weak that I couldn't use what I learnt to defend myself from those guys. I'm sorry for not being as strong as Olly or Johan or even as perfect as Eli who I recently found out was your favourite" Daniel speaks so fast and so softly that Gun barely catches all of what he says. What he does catch is the mention of 'guys' and instantly he feels something burning.

"You're hurt?" Gun asks automatically which is unusual.

Had it been Olly or Eli, Gun's first question out of his mouth after hearing that his student had been in a fight of any type would be 'Did you win?' but Daniel was different. Daniel wasn't one of those ruthless fighters who got out into the ring each week, he wasn't born to ravage through the streets and demand dominance like the members of the crews and gangs. He was a Doctor. He was a regular civilian.

"No, officer Jichang came by before those guys tried anything…they were only hurling insults and trying to grab at me" Daniel mentions and Gun feels the spark in him grow into a raging fire as anger vibrates through his body.

Some assholes had touched Daniel, they had tried to hurt him and now he was standing in front of Gun, shaking like a newborn deer, cowering away from any movement and touch that was coming his way. That wouldn't do at all.

"Where are they? Where were you?" Gun fires out and Daniel finally looks up in bewilderment.

"What?" "Answer the questions, Daniel Park" Gun orders, no room for argument.

Daniel's face scrunches into an unreadable emotion before he answers.

"I'm not sure what street it was but it was when I was on the way back from the convenience store about 20 minutes away from here since the one closer is currently closed" Daniel replies and Gun nods.

He was formulating a plan, one that James and Goo wouldn't be happy about but he didn't give a fuck about what they thought. They'd probably make fun of him for it later.

"Gun…are you mad at me?" Daniel voices out and Gun turns back to him, his gaze scorching hot yet noticing the fear that was still prevalent in the other man he turns it down a notch.

"I'm not mad at you" Gun starts, walking closer to Daniel and keeping an eye out to see if the other would retreat again. "I'm mad at those bastards," He tells the other until he's about a foot away, staring down at the shorter man.

"I'm also mad at myself for not having taught you to be strong enough to trust yourself. I'm mad that I forgot to take into consideration that you're not like any of my older students, that you aren't like me" He reaches out, making sure the other could see his hand before it's placed under his chin. The wince from Daniel was visible and Gun felt sick. "I'm mad that those guys have made you scared of me, that you'd even associate my touch with how those guys might have touched you" He hums and Daniel stares.

"I'm not scared of you," Daniel whispers.

"I know you're not" Gun huffs, fingers reaching up to trace along his jaw to his ear. "But what you went through has shaken you up and I don't like it one bit" He states honestly, his other hand reaching out to grab the younger male by his waist.

"I'm sorry" Daniel mumbles softly and Gun clicks his tongue.

"Stop apologising" He orders. "I think today's lesson is going to be a bit different," Gun's intentions were clear, Daniel's eyes widened with clarity at the implications and he pursed his lips as his brows pulled together.

"You said that if we did things together people would leave me alone, that hasn't worked out" He retorts and Gun hums.

"Then perhaps I just need to try harder," He tells the other before letting go of his chin and taking his wrist. "Let's go"

.

Daniel was lying down against his bed, staring up at Gun who was moving around the darkness of his room. He could barely see anything and if it weren't for the soft moonlight spilling through his window he would be blind to the sight of Gun stripping out of his shirt before climbing onto the bed.

Daniel's breath catches in his throat as he feels warm lips press against the pulse point of his neck, as calloused hands hold his waist in place and a body slips between his legs. He couldn't prevent the soft moan from spilling from his lips as he arched into the touch.

"It's been a while since we did anything but you're still so sensitive" Gun tells the other. "Maybe that's also the reason why people haven't been pissing off and leaving you alone" he adds before pulling away.

Daniel's eyes scan down the scarred torso, gripping the bed sheets beside him to stop his own body from reaching out.

"After we're done you won't be scared of me, you'll know the difference between those guys and me" There was an almost possessive tone in his voice but Daniel must have been imagining it. Gun couldn't be possessive, how could he be when he was the one who said they weren't anything?

"If you hate anything I do, if you're uncomfortable, let me know, okay?" Gun asks and Daniel nods but at the shake of the other's head he frowns in confusion. "Verbally, I need an answer Daniel" He hums and the Doctor can feel his heart hammering in his chest.

A different kind of heart-pounding to what he experienced earlier. No fear, only anticipation.

"Yes, I understand" He replies and at that Gun allows Daniel to witness a small smile. Barely able to make it out in the darkness but it was there.

Daniel shudders.

"Good boy" Gun whispers, his voice husky with lust as he leans down to press kisses against Daniel's neck and collarbone. The Doctor groans in pleasure, absorbing the heat of the other man and letting his arms come up to grasp against his bare back.

"Gun~" Daniel moans out, running his hands up the man's toned back to grasp his hair and tug him upwards. Knowing what Daniel wanted he obliges and their lips meet. The kisses were searing and lewd, rougher than the first time they had made out but Gun wasn't complaining.

The kissing continues and so do Gun's roaming hands, they move to tug at the boy's waistband and slowly he pulls the pants down. The cold air meeting Daniel's erection was enough to bring a yelp out of the younger man but Gun's scorching hands were enough to give him whiplash.

As they kissed and as Gun's hands worked with Daniel's erection, the Doctor couldn't stop the desperate mewls from spilling and the elder ate it all up.

"Do you like that Doc? You're so needy and you're dripping so much precum, are you enjoying yourself?" Gun teases, whispering the erotic words right into Daniel's ear. In response, there were a couple of satisfactory moans and grunts but Gun wasn't having it. "You have to tell me, speak to me, Danny. Does it feel good? Do you want me to stop?" He asks and immediately it draws a reaction from the other.

"No! Please don't stop, it feels so good!" Daniel cries out, reaching down to grab Gun's wrist and keep it in place for fear that Gun would stop.

Grinning at the reaction, Gun presses his forehead against Daniel's, working his hands expertly.

"Mmmh, you feel that pleasure? Every time you feel good you're going to be reminded of me and no one else. I'll make you feel so good that you'll never be able to get it up with anyone else" Gun chuckles darkly, growling as he swipes his thumb over Daniel's tip, his weeping slit making the entire shaft slippery and filling the room with lewd, wet noises.

Daniel cries out, his whole body quivering in pleasure.

"That's right baby, going to make you feel so good that I'll be all you ever need" Gun promises, not knowing where his words were coming from but knowing that they were driving Daniel crazy while his hips were rutting forward into the heated palms.

Daniel was getting lost in the ecstasy and emotions, too lost for Gun's taste so he decided to take it away. He stops his movements and pulls his hand back much to Daniel's frustrations.

"No! I was so…I was so close" He whines and Gun laughs before grabbing the man's bare thighs and lifting them.

Folding Daniel in half with a yelp, the younger stares up at Gun with wide, teary eyes. Realisation becomes clear and immediately he's attempting to shift and hide himself, but Gun's firm grip wouldn't allow him. He was exposed to the world and he could do nothing but hide his face.

"Gun?" Daniel whines out but Gun doesn't answer, instead, he moves one hand to caress the man's milky thighs, not a blemish in sight and so soft and supple to the touch. He slips it down to the male's ass, groping the perky globes much to Daniel's continued embarrassment before his fingers brush over the puckering hole.

Squealing at the new sensation, Daniel couldn't withhold any of the sounds that he was making as Gun pressed his thumb in.

"So fucking cute" He mumbles. "Such a perfect little hole, I wanna ruin it" Gun states and Daniel whimpers in response, his dick twitching at the words and the elder grins as he notices.

"You'd like that, wouldn't you? You'd love for me to ruin your tight, little virgin hole, fuck you until you can't stand anymore, pound you into your bed till the frames break, and make sure your body moulds to my shape so you can't be satisfied by anyone else but my fucking cock" Gun growls and the way Daniel's body shivers, keens and vibrates in need for the elder to make a promise with his words was life-changing. It was so mind-altering because he never knew he needed to be fucked like a whore until he heard Gun utter those words.

Never has his body reacted in such a way, never has he wanted anything more. Perhaps it was the lust clouding his mind or perhaps it was the lack of sexual activity but Daniel wanted to be satisfied. He needed to be satisfied.

"Please, please, please, please…" Daniel mutters like a mantra, pleading, practically begging for Gun to do it yet the elder just chuckles at this.

"So keen, such a good little boy, but I won't fuck you…not today at least" Gun responds and Daniel let out such a defeated, bratty groan that it causes the other man's grip to turn firm. "I'm doing you a favour here, Do you think your tight hole can take me right now? I'll break you, tear you apart if I do" He grunts and Daniel pauses.

Noticing that Daniel was thinking about his words, Gun huffs.

"You've never even fingered yourself, Doc. Let's take small steps first, alright?" With no further warning, with Daniel's legs still pressed against his shoulder and spread for Gun, the elder spits right at his hole.

Daniel squawks in indignation at the display but before he could say anything, Gun was coating his fingers with the spit before inserting the first into him. A breath is knocked out of Daniel at the intrusion as he delves deeper and deeper before the entirety of it is sheathed inside.

"How is it? How are you feeling, Daniel?" Gun asks and Daniel nods.

"Feels weird" He answers honestly.

It wasn't bad but it was a foreign feeling. The thickness of Gun's fingers in him was all very alien.

"I know baby, I know but it'll get better I promise" Gun replies.

The use of the pet names, something Gun had never done before, was also very different. But it wasn't horrible. It takes a little while before Daniel can relax enough for Gun to start moving his fingers, pumping them in and out and eventually all the slick and spit was helping. Soon enough Gun was putting in a second finger, the stretch gave way to a burning sensation but that also disappeared as Gun continued thrusting. Then there was a third finger and this time the burn lasted a little longer, that was until Gun angled his fingers a particular way and he found himself crying out.

"There it is" Gun grins, continuing to aim at that particular spot.

"Feels weird! Gun!" Daniel calls out, his cock jumping and twitching every time the spot was brushed against.

"Don't act dumb, we both know that you know exactly what I've found" Gun grins and Daniel flushes.

Gun was relentless as he pounded against the sweet spot, every movement was accompanied by a soft 'ah' from Daniel's swollen lips that were parted and spilling drool down his chin.

"C-Close!" Daniel warns and Gun doesn't slow down. If anything he speeds up and from the corner of the Doctor's blurry eyes he notices the man pulls his sweatpants down enough to pull out his member, starting to masturbate furiously to catch up with his pleasure.

"That's it, sweetheart, let go for me" With Gun's permission, Daniel throws his head back and with a drawn-out moan, he comes undone. He cums against his stomach and his hole twitches and spasms around Gun's still-moving hands before he falls limp. "So good, such a good boy" Gun hums as he slows down and retracts his hands.

Daniel felt exhausted yet seeing Gun's hand still pumping his own flushed cock, it provides him with enough strength to hook his hands under his knees and hold himself spread and still. Gun noticing this lets out a guttural groan as he speeds up, shuffling forward until the tip of his cock is placed directly above the sensitive hole. Merely touching, the tip aligned and not pushing forward to enter which made it all the more arousing.

Soon enough Gun is cumming, his seed spilling and landing against his ass.

There's a moment where the both of them are merely breathing hard, the only sound echoing around the room are their breaths before eventually, Gun gets up to grab something to clean them both up. It's a clumsy affair but it was the effort that counts. In the time that Gun does that, Daniel lets his knees go and lays on the bed, limp to Gun cleaning him up and still feeling drowsy when Gun moves him under the sheets and climbs in next to him.

"How are you feeling?" Gun asks Daniel as he lies down.

How was Daniel feeling after what he had just experienced?

"I'm feeling that this was just an excuse for you to get down and dirty with me again" Daniel states dryly, the cloud of lust having dispersed.

Gun goes stiff from beside him.

"But I'd be lying if I said I don't feel better after everything that happened" He turns around to lay on his side, facing Gun who was looking at him. "It also helps that you're really good at satisfying me" He adds cheekily.

Gun lets out another huff before shoving Daniel's face away.

"Go to bed, you're delirious" Gun grunts.

Daniel sighs, swatting the hand off his face before settling back into his bed.

"I'm going to have to change the bed sheets tomorrow because of you" Daniel bites back one last time before slowly falling asleep.

"Because of us"

Was the last thing he heard.

When Daniel woke up the next morning he found only himself, naked and exhausted in the bed. Gun was long gone much to the younger man's disappointment but what he did find on his desk was breakfast and some fresh bed sheets.

"You know I didn't picture you to be the one to come to me and ask for help" Jichang takes a drag of his cigarette, leaning against the side of the building as he stares at the man in the suit.

"I'm not asking for help, I'm ordering you to give me names and faces" Gun grunts, smoking a cigarette as he glowers at the officer.

"Seems like you're asking for help" Jichang snorts as he pushes himself off the wall. "And why exactly should I give you the names and faces of those guys anyway?" He asks and Gun's glower intensifies.

"Because I can do things that you can't do" Gun announces proudly and Jichang snorts.

"There are laws, you know? Just because I choose to follow them whereas you choose to ignore them doesn't mean those laws still don't exist" Jichang retorts before flicking the cigarette to the floor and stamping it out. "But you must care deeply for that new doctor of yours if you're willing to go this far for him" He hums out and Gun scoffs.

"I don't appreciate people touching things that don't belong to them" Gun answers.

"So he belongs to you now? Does he know that?" Jichang snaps back and this time Gun doesn't have an answer. "So he doesn't, you know you shouldn't get possessive over things that aren't yours right?" Jichang chides and Gun rolls his eyes.

"I'm not possessive, just give me the damn name and faces and stay out of this old man" Gun grunts and at this Jichang chuckles before handing the files over.

"I don't care what you do to those bastards, just try not to kill any of them" The officer states before moving to step out of the alleyway. "Oh and try to refrain from insulting the person who's 'helping' you" This time the man's tone dips dangerously but of course, Gun didn't care.

"Whatever you say first gen king" Gun rolls his eyes. He wasn't intimidated, Jichang may be a part of the first generation and he may be strong but at the end of the day, he knows that he is the stronger individual.

Jichang leaves and Gun takes a moment to finish his cigarette and tuck the files into the back of his pants, hiding it under his coat, before also stepping out.

"Gun! There you are!" A voice calls and the bodyguard turns just in time to see an irritated-looking woman. "Hurry up, I need to get back to the office in time for the meeting! What are you even doing?" she questions, crossing her arms as she stands her ground against Gun's glaring.

"None of your business, princess. Let's get going before you blow a blood vessel" he walks past the woman who clicks her tongue in irritation but follows him towards the car.

"If my father didn't like you so much and if you weren't so efficient at your job I'd have you fired just because of your attitude" Crystal sighs.

"Yeah, yeah. Whatever you say" Gun drones on as he gets into the driver's seat.

As if the Chairman would ever consider firing one of his best employees.

.

.

.

"Samuel!" Daniel calls out, catching sight of the Big Deal member walking towards the gym alone. Said male turns around at the mention of his name, his face lighting up into a smirk as he witnesses Daniel running towards him.

Midway as he's sprinting to catch up with the other his hips seem to give out slightly, causing him to misstep and trip over his foot. Instead of landing face-first onto the floor a hand reaches out to grab him by the shoulder to steady him.

He didn't flinch away from the touch, Gun's 'training' worked.

"Hey Doc, what's got you all excited to see me? Bounding across the hall like a lost puppy finding its owner" Samuel remarks.

"I'm not a puppy and you're certainly not my owner" Daniel bites out and Samuel chuckles.

"If you're not then why are you as adorable as one?" The larger man teases, his corny words making the younger man roll his eyes.

"I need to ask you something" He ignores the comment and Samuel's face contorts into a pout, an unusual expression on such a large and intimidating individual. "Oh don't look at me like that, it's just a couple of simple questions" He grunts, gesturing for Samuel to continue walking to the CC gym.

"Alright go on and ask" Samuel snorts.

"Remember our first conversation together? The day you were trying to preposition me and I told you no" He mentions and Samuel nods slowly as he slides the door open and enters the gym. There were already a couple others present but none belonged to Hostel B or were Olly.

"I vaguely do, are you agreeing to what I offered you?" Samuel wiggles his brows and Daniel punches his arm. "Ow! I'm sensitive, remember Doc?!" He exaggerates, grabbing his arm in pain as he pouts again.

"Yeah, yeah. Do you remember what you said about Eli and his ex-friend? Were you implying that it was Olly?" Daniel continues to dig and Samuel scoffs.

"I didn't even mention Olly's name but you picked up on it pretty quick Doc, sharp as ever. What about them?" Samuel raises a brow as he settles his bag down and heads towards the weights.

"Well I don't know if you've heard but you probably have since gossip travels pretty fast around here-" "About the falling out and fight Eli and Olly had the other day? Oh yeah, that was pretty interesting to hear especially since before Olly's suspension they were practically fucking on the down low…even if they weren't being subtle about it" Samuel snorts.

So they were intimate together!

"Do you know about their history? I've heard bits and pieces on how they weren't but now you're telling me they were and now they're not again. It's been confusing" Daniel sighs and Samuel laughs.

"Are you asking me to tell you about the gossip that goes on between these two? Doctor Park, are you sticking your nose into their personal affairs? I didn't expect that" Samuel calls him out and Daniel flushes.

"It's not that I'm trying to be a busybody but they are my patients and if their relationship is impacting their mental and emotional welfare then I want to be well informed. It's like being informed on the history of the CC to understand my job or being informed of the different crews and gangs to comprehend how they work" Daniel justifies. "I just want to understand" he adds and Samuel sighs.

"The history between both Hostels is complicated and the personal history between Eli and Olly is even more intense. If you want to get down to the nitty and gritty details then it could take the whole afternoon" Samuel grunts and Daniel takes a seat on the floor.

"I cleared up my entire day for this, I'm willing to listen if you're willing to explain" Daniel states earnestly and Samuel watches in amusement before letting out a sigh. He starts his arm curls and nods.

"I'm not going to say that I know the complete truth and I'm only telling you what I've heard, alright?" He states and Daniel nods vigorously. "Back in the day, before Hostel became two crews and before they were even a gang there was a group of individuals who stayed together in a hotel in Gangdong. This group of individuals came together because they were mostly orphans, you'll know them as the founding members of Hostel B. Eli Jang, Warren Chae, Sally Park, Derrick Jo and Max Kang but little do most people know there were two other members. Olly Wang and Heather Kim" Samuel starts and Daniel listens with rapt attention.

"It's not common knowledge and most people have forgotten since it was so long ago. Hostel, unlike most crews, didn't start with the intention of being problematic or committing crimes. If anything they were mostly just a bunch of kids that found a family with each other, fighting to protect their turf. It's not their fault that they became pretty formidable and strong, Eli especially caught the attention of other people for his unique style" Samuel switches the weight to his other arm after a certain amount of reps. "It certainly caught the attention of the founders since at the time they were still cleaning up the streets and in the works of creating the CC. I don't have all the details but I'm sure it was Gun who was the one to take them down and in turn, also became interested in Eli. Gun made the promise to train Eli and have him become a fighter for the CC in exchange for not destroying them and Eli went along with it for his family's sake"

Daniel couldn't help but feel completely horrified.

"But they weren't even causing trouble like other groups, are you saying Gun practically threatened them into joining?" He questions and Samuel shrugs.

"It's Gun" He states as if that was an answer enough.

"Anyways there were rumours that Eli was involved with that Heather girl at the time" He changes the direction of the story and Daniel nods.

"Involved intimately?" The Doctor couldn't help but clarify.

"Seeing as he has a child, I would say so" Samuel snorts and Daniel gapes. Eli was a father? He had a kid?! "Anyways, Eli was dating Heather and the rest of the group were quite close-knit except for Olly. Olly and Heather were school friends of Sally I would say that the two were also super close together and they aren't orphans. I know that for sure because when Heather got pregnant her lawyer mother almost killed Eli and Olly robbed his parents at one point. Yet despite this Heather was much more accepted into the group and Olly wasn't, don't ask me why because I don't know the reasons why" Samuel quips the last bit and Daniel shuts his mouth.

"There have been times in the past where Big Deal and the original Hostel had seen each other in passing and from what I could tell back then the entire group seemed to ignore Olly, it was honestly kind of pathetic seeing how much the guy worshipped Eli and the floor he walked on. How he wanted to be just like Eli but the crew head didn't seem to give him the time of day. At one point I even felt bad because even the others didn't seem to acknowledge him. He just…didn't fit in" Samuel recounts and Daniel couldn't help but relate.

Not being able to fit in yet still trying your best. It was heartbreaking.

"Anyways some shit went down, something happened between Eli, Olly and Heather because the next thing I heard there was news that Heather had passed away and Olly had been thrown out of the group. Olly had reached a breaking point of being ignored, impersonated Eli and told Heather to abort the baby, she didn't but ended up passing away after giving birth, apparently, the stress and complication of labour were factors that influenced her death" There was a slight sombre look on Samuels face as he mentioned Heather.

"Did you know her?" Daniel asks softly and Samuel shakes his head.

"Nah, but I don't need to know her or the rest of the crew to sympathise with what happened" Samuel replies, it was very human of him. "Up until that point Eli was still being trained by Gun, after Heather's death he quit which pissed Gun off. Olly, having nowhere to go, turned to Gun to take Eli's spot so the bastard wouldn't try taking revenge on the crew. Other situations happened, and Olly ended up getting stronger and forming Hostel A. They entered the CC and when Hostel B heard that he was using their group name to fight they also entered to see what the hell was going on. Both crews just ended up sticking around in the CC after they both joined"

"Oh," Daniel hums, slightly confused as to why Hostel B would stay if they didn't need to. If Olly ended up covering up for them, why would Eli and the others ever need to get involved especially after they found out that the other crew were only with the CC to fight and earn money? "But then you said that the two leaders became intimate, how did that come about after everything that had happened?" He inquires and Samuel snorts.

"I honestly don't know what Eli was thinking, getting involved with the person that basically murdered the mother of his child but they did end up spending more time together during the beginning of the CC days. I guess spending their days together training and fighting made them grow closer, all I know is that one day Eli was glaring at Olly and the next he was brushing up against them and giving him tips. Even Warren and the others slightly warmed up to him, they were wary but they tolerated him" He puts the weights down and crosses his arm, a thoughtful frown on his face.

"What's with that look?" The Doctor sits up at the change of posture.

"Well, I guess everything went to shit when Olly went up against the leader of the Backdoor Crew, Darius Hong. There was some weird tension between them, not that anyone likes that pervert Darius but no one knows what happened between the two but during the match…it was a blood fest. A completely one-sided fight, Olly dominated Darius and didn't hold back in the slightest…" Samuel winces at his words. "And coming from someone like me…you had to be there to know what I mean, online footage of the fight on the CC website has been completely wiped out but I'm sure there's fan cam footage out there"

The CC, a company that thrived on the blood lust and ferociousness of its fighters to physically remove profitable footage from its online website spoke a lot about what really went down.

"I vaguely remember the list of injuries that Darius got from the fight. I'm pretty sure both his legs and arms were shattered, his entire body was black and purple, swollen up like a balloon and so much blood was lost that it took several weeks for the stains in the arena to disappear. Actually, I'm sure if you looked close enough you'd still be able to see leftover remnants. It's a miracle the guy even survived, especially since Olly didn't hold back against breaking his face and brain" Samuel sums up and Daniel couldn't help but shiver up.

If that's how strong Olly was then Daniel couldn't imagine what the man could have done against Ryohei had he not stepped in to stop him. Yet that only happened because Olly had been triggered.

"Do you know if Darius and Olly had any prior engagements before the fight? Any arguments or conversations?" Samuel merely shakes his head.

"If they did it would have been one one-on-one with no one around, although I wouldn't be surprised if that was the case" Samuel responds. "All I know is that after Olly was suspended from the Arena the air around both Hostels changed again. The relationship between Hostel B and Big Deal is friendly enough, especially between Warren and Jerry. Occasionally we'll hold training and sparring matches to lighten the mood and camaraderie since we do respect them as a found family group that supports homeless kids in Seoul but ever since then, Eli has rejected being involved with us and everyone else. It's almost like he's back to being an isolated lone wolf" He shakes his head and Daniel nods.

He had never noticed the Hostel B leader act in such a way since he was generally always around other members of his group but aside from them he was never with anyone else. His isolation was also different to Johan's. The God Dog leader was lonely because he was at the top and his crew seemed to have a hard time catching up to him, it wasn't willing. Furthermore, the brunette just seemed shy when he was with other capable fighters outside the ring. For Eli, he chose to be separate from others. When he wasn't worrying about his crew he seemed detached.

"This really goes deeper" Daniel mumbles.

"Yeah but whatever the case is, my money is on Olly being the one who fucked up" Samuel snorts when the sound of a cough and a voice clear. Both men turn around to see two other figures standing a little further away, arms crossed and hands on their hips as they glare at the gossiping duo.

"But it wasn't Olly's fault, sure he had a part in it but it was a hundred percent Darius Hong's fault, that guy had been gunning after Olly since day one" The guy with facial piercings calls.

"Stop jumping to conclusions about Olly, he may look like a brute and sure he acts crazy sometimes but he's not that kind of guy" The other man with sideburns clicks his tongue in annoyance.

It takes a moment for Daniel to remind himself who the two men were, he's treated them before for injuries from the tournament and other fights. The protectiveness in their voice over Olly was what reminded the Doctor. They were uncles. Hostel A uncles, Justin Peng and Chuck Kwak.

"Ah! Mr Peng and Mr Kwak! If anyone can give me insight into the situation between Olly and Eli it would be you two" Daniel acknowledges, turning completely to give them his attention.

"Of course we could, I don't know why you'd go to Mr. Gossip or be gossiped of all people for solid information" Justin snorts.

"Although why should we tell you anything at all, Doc? You're not close with Olly and is this information going to help you with anything" Chuck retorts and Daniel bites his lip.

"Perhaps I just don't want them to fight" Daniel shrugs, eyeing the two with as much truth as he could convey through his look. "They're my patients, their well-being is my concern" He adds.

The two Hostel A uncles turn to look at each other before letting out a sigh of defeat.

"It wasn't Olly's fault, he had a hand in it but it was Darius. Olly's always hated that guy but he's always rejected his advances and requests for a fight" Chuck starts with his explanation. "We always thought it was strange for Olly to reject his fight requests since he's accepted all other requests. He's always looking for someone stronger to challenge but when it comes to Darius he would avoid him…at first, we thought it was because he was homophobic since the leader of Back Door is openly gay" He chuckles slightly, shaking his head.

"That was before we realised something was going on between Olly and Eli" Justin coughs into his fist. "Accidentally walking in on them in the broom closet when I was just trying to look for a dustpan to clean up the mess I made when I kicked over a bin was not on my bucket list" He shivers.

"But that's not the point. The point is that Darius somehow convinced Olly who wanted nothing to do with him to get into a fight. All I remember is the Big Daddy coming back to our base completely furious and agitated, telling us about how the match would be held that weekend and of course, you've probably heard about the mess that happened" Chuck explains. "It was horrifying, I've seen Olly when he's batshit crazy before but that's when he's enjoying a fight…this time though…It really looked like he was going to kill Darius. What was even worse was the aftermath of the fight, Olly was ripped into not only by the founders but also by Eli…I've never seen Eli so pissed before"

"And I've never seen Olly look so…defeated. He didn't come out of his room or speak to any of us for weeks…The only interaction we had was when I brought him food and made sure he went to the bathroom and showered" Justin sighs, his brows pulled together in the form of a frown. "If it weren't for the fact that we owed Olly our lives then I sure as hell would have never done any of that stuff"

"You owe him your life?" Daniel asks, intrigued.

Again, Chuck and Justin share a look before answering.

"We're immigrants, when we got to Korea we had nothing. No money, no home, no food, nothing at all. Everywhere we went for an opportunity to start we were turned away, even Big Deal didn't want us" At the mention of this Samuel looked slightly peeved.

"You didn't fit into our criteria, you're both strong but far too reckless" Samuel defends his group as Chuck scoffs.

"Well it doesn't matter, we were at the end of our wits when Olly came by and saw the potential in us and recruited us. He gave us a place to stay and gave us a purpose in the dreadful life we were living in. I guess he just understood how it felt to not be wanted" The man answers and Daniel can't help but feel sympathetic.

"Listen Doc, I don't understand why you want to get involved in the situation so badly but all I know is that Olly was much more bearable and far kinder when he was involved with Eli…if you can somehow fix their relationship then by all means, please do. Just…don't be too disappointed if it all doesn't work out" Chuck states, his tone isn't pessimistic but it is realistic.

Daniel nods. There wasn't much he could personally do, if the two boys didn't want to talk to each other to sort out the situation then he couldn't force them.

"Thank you for telling me all this, I'm glad to see that you two care about Olly" Especially so after hearing Samuel's take on the gang leader's relationship with Hostel B back in the day.

"Good luck, Doc"
