Twilight of Itaewon | Taekook ✔

24. The way we are

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Flashback

The soothing wind was caressing them, welcoming the five to dusk they dreamt in Jeju. Night whispering stories along with the dark clouds in the sky. Blooming flowers of the eve mesmerizing their nostrils each time when they inhale. They didn't want to leave there. But no one in us can be permanent in this world. And the truth hurts.

Taehyung sat next to Jimin. They were enjoying the campfire at night. Talking and laughing with their beloved ones never get old. Namjoon put one more wood stick to the burning fire. The cold night was lulling them to sleep.

"I don't wanna go home... It's so good here..."

Taehyung whined while cuddling Jimin. Everyone agrees to that. Jimin stroked his best friend's hair and comforted him. Out of the five, Taehyung behaves like a sulky, clingy baby when something bad happens. Something against his will.

"Me neither...Didn't even realized the time when we're here... It's so amazing..."
Namjoon said. They sat in silence after that. Life waiting for them back in  Seoul is different. It's might gonna be a mess. Nevertheless, they decided to seize what they have now.

"Joon, Jimin, Tae, let's play something..."

Hobi said. His face was red from the cold and was cuddling with Jin. Hobi is always helping to bring them together. Taehyung was the first one to cheer and ready to play whatever hobi suggesting.

"Why do I feel like you're gonna suggest something like 'never I have ever?' "

Jimin said, raising his eyebrows. Hobi smiled at him. They all sighed.

"Come on, it's cliche, but it's the best game ever."

Without having another way, they all agreed. Sitting around the fire in a circle, they waited for hobi to explain the game.

"So, the rules go like this.
I will start with one thing I have done, and if one of you hasn't done that... I'll get one of you to pick, and you will have to do it now. Woohoo"

What? What in heaven? It was Jimin who stood up first in disagreement. He knows it's Hobi and the male has done almost every dirty and stupid thing. They've to stop Hobi for the sake of their sanity.  Taehyung was the next one to throw tantrum and started regretting his life decision.

"What in hell? This is not even the real game. This is NOT how it plays. I'm out. "

Jimin screamed like a kid. Taehyung joined him. They were sitting away from the others making the not interested face. Namjoon turned to look at them. He smiled first and then said.

"Come on, Hobi really wanted to do this. It's just us. Let's play..."

Jimin and Taehyung looked at them. They're not ready to give in like that. But the pouting hobi made them rethink their stubbornness. Hobi and pouting, no way.

"Be a sportsman, like Joonie..." Hobi said and the two joined.

Drinks and snacks were placed on the small wooden table in front of them. The red flame making their faces glitter. Taehyung gulped hard. It's Hobi, the master brain of fun. This is going to be a long night.

"So, I've been kissing my best friend for a long time now..."

The three gulped. They haven't done that. Hobi knows it too. Kissing was fine. But, it's Namjoon, Jimin, and Taehyung. If it's Jin, he will do it with Hobi. They glanced at the male secretly.
