Taehyung's POV
╚═════════════════╝

Present Day

Popping the DVD into the TV, I grab the remote before leading Makayla back to my bed.

Her hands are so soft I could hold them forever.

We lay down on the soft surface and she hesitantly cuddles up to me.

A small smile tugs at my lips at her shyness.

Wrapping my arms around her, I pull her flush against my chest, earning a small gasp.

She soon relaxes in my embrace and we watch the movie together.

•••

"I want to see the floating lights!" Repunzel exclaims to her mother.

Psh. Some mother.

Locking a child away for her whole life, creating a vulnerable girl who knows nothing about the real world.

I look down at the girl beside me who stares at the TV in awe.

Hm. I can see why you like this movie so much.

I cover my mouth with the palm of my hand as I  yawn due to slight fatigue from today.

Makayla looks at me from the corner of her eye before turning towards me.

She then points her hands to her chest and slightly curls her palms inward.

'Are you tired?'

Ah, yes, Makayla started looking up different words and phrases in sign language on the way home.

I smile at her before pointing to myself and then moving my hand into an 'O' and 'K' sign.

I guess learning sign language freshman year will actually be useful.

Makayla repeats my actions slowly with a concentrated face.

Finally, she comes to realization and smiles wide while nodding to me, indicating that she understands.

Screw you, notebooks, I'm a smarter man now.

I've always hated writing.
