Heal me // A Jikook Trilogy //

《23》A Spirit Set Free

Jimin had been so right!
The moment we picked up Lian, we couldn't believe our freaking eyes.

The little, innocent princess with the big blue eyes and pleasant smile was all but gone, replaced by a woman who knew her worth and let it show.

Hwasa had done just what Namjoon predicted- she had helped Lian set her spirit free... and a lot of her skin too.

And so here she was, dressed in a black crop top, leather pants which hugged her slender form but pronounced her curves too, her black long hair open and her make up simple yet striking.

Here was the woman who gave a damn about rules and wanted to be real, real bad tonight.
It never felt like she belonged to us more.

And Tae... wow.

I was getting ready to stop him in case he got the stupid idea to drag her to Hwasa's bedroom and give her some of that bad her eyes seemed to seek so vehemently right here, right now.

It was almost miracle we made it to the car without anyone loosing their clothes.
Speaking off...

Shit.
Jimin really wanted to kill me!
His blouse was made of the same silky, shimmering material as my own, but where mine was blue, his was golden.

Bright, startling gold with the top buttons open to give the viewer a nice idea about the body hidden beneath and tugged into black, skinny jeans which just did wonders for his peachy, round ass.

Adding that with the sparkling choker around his neck and the white hair bouncing fluffily on his head- an angel.
He looked like an angel straight from the heavens yet with a spark to his eyes which spoke of all the bad, unholy things he wanted to do.

I hated him a little in that moment.

He didn't exactly make it easy for me to find a way to move on when he walked around like that. But as he caught me staring, I saw that he was fed up with me too.

He only turned to Lian, put an arm around her hips and grinned at her widely: "You look damn hot, Lian!"

She smiled back at him, gave him a once over and then, in an impressed voice replied: "So do you."

I turned away, not wanting to see it.
Shit.
Tonight was gonna suck.

But Lian somehow lightened the mood again like only she could.

She joked with Jimin, told him that Hwasa dropped the bomb about him being gay.
Many of us rolled our eyes.
Where Lian was full of questions, Hwasa was a hopeless gossip.

I really didn't want to know what else they had talked about for those three hours.
And then Lian surprised us once more when she turned to me just as I lighted a cigarette and demanded I gave it to her.
We broke out in chuckles when she choked, then whistled in respect as she kept smoking until the cigarette was done, the smile on her lips promising more to follow.

Like she loved everything that was bad.
Everything her parents ever told her not to do.
Jeez... she would be a handful in the future.

And we were already heading to a place where she could prove herself anew.
Namjoon used his best weapon once more: the truth.
Not all of it but much as we parked in front of the little gas station and told her we were gonna steal some booze.

She gaped at us for several seconds, wondering if we were kidding.
We weren't.

And then Namjoon told her snippets of what our true occupation was.
Told her about Yoongi's talent in hacking, Jin's driving skills, Hoseok's supply of not only laughter but gadgets and of course the three doers: me, Jimin and Tae.
