Nora & the Boys | BTS AU | OT7

Chapter 7

*

How had he found himself in this situation, Namjoon thought for the umpteenth time and sighed. 

He looked down at the lit screen of the phone, and the message he had sent Nora's friend, letting her know their exact location.

She had said, she would reach within twenty minutes.

But twenty minutes was a long time, and Nora - the injured girl, didn't seem to be fairing well.

Time was running against her, right now.

He had no knowledge of how their bodies worked - people like Nora.

He had so many questions in his head? Did they heal faster then humans? Were those real wings? Where did they come out from?

Ever since he had read about the sighting of a myth, some eleven years ago, he had read about them. He had looked up every story tale, every book on myths he could get his hands on.

They...fascinated him.

Their existence was no short of a mystery that the nature had presented humans, to solve.

No one knew how they had come into being. But everyone who believed in myths, knew they happened to be there, walking among humans, in the same time and place, and still stayed hidden in the current century.

Namjoon was a firm believer of myths. But if a non-believer were to see what he had seen, he doubted that man would have remained as calm and sane as him.

He took a hesitant step towards the sleeping girl, his hands shaking on their sides.

Did he really have to cause her pain? Couldn't her friend do it, once she reached here?

Namjoon took another minute to stare at her.

She looked so...ordinary.

A regular redhead, with a petite nose and delicate bone structure. Nothing of the magnificent warrior he had seen on the stage.

And those wings...he still couldn't believe it.

When he had held her for a brief minute, she had felt like a normal human being. No, odd wings sprouting from the back, not even a feather.

But then again, she wasn't human. Who knows where she hid those humongous things?

"Hey?" Namjoon whispered, hoping against hope that she would wake up.

There was no response.

He sucked in his fear, and exhaled slowly. "Treat her as a normal human." he said in his head.

She wasn't going to pounce on him, nor pull out any magic voodoo wand to stun him.

Namjoon knew this, yet, he couldn't keep his heartbeat in check. It rose in leaps and bounds, thudding in his chest, as he closed the distance between him and the girl.

"Hey...Nora?"

He didn't expect any response this time, but some form of movement would have been nice. At least then, he could have gauged how long it would need to force Nora awake.

Another sigh, and dragging of feet, and Namjoon hovered over her, feeling like some creep.

"C'mon Namjoon-ah, you can do this." he whispered and reached for the long coat that Nora was wearing.

Here goes nothing, he thought, and slowly lifted the cloth, revealing the black suit underneath.

Namjoon didn't know what he had expected. A dress maybe? or something other then the suit for sure. But she was Mr. Worth after all. And he had never seen anything, other then a tuxedo or a black-grey suit on their security personnel.
