Blue

5-Blue

JAKE'S POV

I woke up. I felt like my eyes are so worn out. Sunghoon helped me sat up. And I froze. What is this?

"That's the color blue."

This is the color blue? It's beautiful.

"Blue....."

I felt him closer to me.

"Yeah. Blue. Like the ocean."

"Ocean? I love the ocean. But I never thought that this is the color of the ocean."

I remembered way back before, I would tell mom to go the beach. I love the sea. But I don't know what it looks like. I felt water in my eyes.

W-wait... It's disappearing.

"I-it's f-fading...."

"What's fading?"

I glanced at my surroundings. It's back to gray again. I looked at my blue pants.

It's gray again.

"It's gone..."

"Gone?"

I heard Sunghoon asked behind me.

"Decoloring....."

"Oh. The colors disappeared?"

I felt him move away from me. I sighed. So it's not going to last.

Well. At least I saw the color blue. It's very beautiful.

"How are you feeling?"

I felt him get close to me again. He was about to touch my head when I moved away.

"I don't like to be touched by anyone."

"Fine. I won't."

But he sat beside me though.

"Do you want to learn colors?"

Well. If that didn't tempt me.

But I remembered. Probes are supposed to stay away from their monos.

Once monos experienced seeing colors, they starts to get obsessed with it. To the point that they will always want their probes beside them. Always.

If he's really my mono. Then he should stay away from me. Why is he doing this?

"Do you know what you're doing?"

I asked him. He stopped.

"What do you mean?"

"By this moment you know that I am a mono. And the possibility that you're my probe is big. So why are you still doing this?"

"What do you mean POSSIBILITY? Jake. I AM YOUR PROBE."

Why is he so sure about it?

"How can you be so sure?"

"Jake. You literally fainted right in front of me after you experienced your first ever color rush with me."

"Stop acting like you don't feel it."

I stared at him. It was true. I didn't thought that I would meet my probe here. And it's a boy. Not that it matters but. Wow?

"What? You're thinking? Just say yes. Not like you have a choice."

He replied confidently. I DO HAVE A CHOICE IDIOT. But even if I want to tell it to him, I can't.

Is it because I can finally 𝘴𝘦𝘦 colors now? Is it because finally, I feel like I am complete? 𝘤𝘰𝘮𝘱𝘭𝘦𝘵𝘦? Or is it because he was supposed to stay away from me but he's not?

"Come on. Stop thinking about it. You don't have any—"

"Shut up."

Okay. I didn't mean to be harsh. But if that's what it takes for him to stop talking then so be it.

I stood up but I felt dizzy.

"Hey. Are you okay?"

He immediately held my hand. I removed it.

"I can manage."

And I walked out. Okay. That was so disrespectful of me. But I can't stand his presence. And it's not just because he's my probe.
