PROTECT YOU FOREVER/ BTS/ NAMJOON

64. Heartbeat

Seokjin's POV:

Saanjh has been quieter since yesterday, all we know is she cried. She didn't even join us for dinner yesterday. It was awkward without her, honestly. I hope she is going to be okay and wish for her to join us soon. This is affecting Namjoon too, he's been tensed ever since Saanjh locked herself up. Nervous all the time. He's been ranting about how he needs to, really really needs to talk to her.

As we interacted with Meera we got to know she doesn't know Saanjh's story. She only knows she has been through a lot, and the Mehra's took her in. Nothing else.

This day is almost over, and she hasn't shown up today either. Meera is busy making shopping plans for Diwali. Other boys and I are just watching some movie being played here, none of us actually interested. Namjoon and Jay look constantly worried about something or someone to be exact. Mrs. Mehra is just calm, and Mr. Mehra is busy making late night dessert.

"You kids look so depressed, go to the beach and have a night walk to lighten your mood." Mr. Mehra comes out of the kitchen catching our attention.

We just look at each other, and nod. It would be for the best.

"Stop worrying, she'll be fine, she needs time to collect herself. " Mrs. Mehra says. "Go to the beach. " She urges us.

Everyone gets up to leave except Namjoon. We look at him, he just shakes his head no. "You guys go, I have something to do." He says getting up.

Aish this kid. We just nod and leave him alone. Jay looks at him up and down frowning a little. Weird.

I just ignore it and we all go out to enjoy the cold air.

Namjoon's POV:

"I know you don't have anything to do. " Mrs. Mehra says.

It's true, I need to talk to Saanjh. I want to know she's fine.

"She must be on the terrace. " She says smiling to me.

"Thank you so much. " I say bowing to her and dash towards the stairs. I could hear her giggle after. Smiling to myself I climb up.

3rd Person-

Namjoon slowly steps into the chilly place all lit with moonlight. He sees her sitting on the ledge looking at the sky where the moon is standing alone. It's a magnificent sight, so ethereal, so beautiful; his heart skips a beat when he catches a glimpse of her skin glowing under the faint moonlight. 'Damn' he thinks.

He moves a step forward and notices her eyes, red and a bit swollen. She cried, he feels bad knowing that. God how much he hated this, seeing her down, vulnerable, suffering. He couldn't take it anymore. He wants to do something, he needs to do something. He looks at her wanting to take away all her pain. She just sits there still unaware of his presence.

"Saanjh." He softly says picking her attention. She turns to see, why does he look so God like. It takes her a minute to realize Name is actually here and she's not imagining things.

He smiles closing near, standing directly face to face. She looks up at him taking in his handsome aura, the mild sounds of crashing waves, salty air around fades away completely with his presence. The power he has, numbs everything away. The dark place seems to brighten up and all the cold she was feeling seems to melt away.

Holy shit, he's actually here and she's drowning in his presence. She immediately straightens up and smiles. At least tries to.

He looks at her and sighs, she's not completely fine, her smile isn't genuine. He knows it's not, and he would do anything to get the real one, her happy gummy smile.
