Magic Island

chapter nineteen

It's been two hours after the whole situation. The sun was already setting and they were all getting settled in their bedrooms. Soobin of course had his own since...yknow...it's his house. Meanwhile the other four shared one big room with two beds.

Yeonjun and Beomgyu were having a pillow fight as Taehyun sat back and watched with Hueningkai sitting on the floor staring into space. Soobin was just out and about, no one really knew where he went.

"I'm gonna go get water before I go to sleep. You guys want any?" Kai offered as he stood up from the floor.

"I do but I don't trust that you won't poison it, so I'm coming with you." Yeonjun said as he put his pillow down.

"Oh my God. I'm not a murderer!"

"Eh..."

"Ugh, whatever. Let's just go."

Kai and Yeonjun left the room, leaving Beomgyu and Taehyun alone. Taehyun started picking up all the pillows and put them on the bed, soon laying down.

"I'm tired." Taehyun sighed as he turned over to face Beomgyu, who was just sitting on the edge of the bed.

"If you're tired, you should sleep."

"Eh, I wanna wait until Soobin gets back. It's weird falling asleep without all five of us being here."

"I thought you and Soobin were arguing?"

"Eh? What makes you think that? We're just fine." Taehyun forced a smile, but Beomgyu wasn't buying it. Especially after what Soobin told him to do.

'Would it be best to do it now?' Beomgyu thought, but soon shook the thoughts away. Why would he do something like that? Taehyun was his friend, nothing would change that.

Right?

"Well, I'm bored, and I'm not letting you fall asleep and leave me hanging." Beomgyu threw a pillow at Taehyun face and started laughing as the younger sent a piercing glare his way.

"You bitch!"

The two soon started a pillow fight again, laughing and having fun. It was times like this where the two felt really close. No Yeonjun leaving Beomgyu out. No Hueningkai being extremely clingy towards Taehyun. No Soobin always bossing them around. Just the two having a fun time alone.

Beomgyu grabbed a blanket and started hitting Taehyun with it as the other continued hitting him with a pillow, soon falling back on the bed. He was laughing so hard that he didn't even notice the blanket put over his head, Beomgyu being the one blocking his vision of the room.

"Okay! That's enough I'm actually tired. You can get off now." Taehyun said, patting Beomgyu's shoulder, indicating to remove the blanket from his head. But there was a slight issue.

Beomgyu wasn't getting off, matter of fact, the grip on the blanket just got tighter.

"Beomgyu? I said you can get off now. I wanna go to sleep!"

His grip on the blanket kept getting tighter and tighter, and it was getting harder for Taehyun to breathe. Tears were filling his eyes after trying to get Beomgyu off of him.

"Get the hell off of me! What are you doing?!" Taehyun yelled as he hit Beomgyu harder, hoping to get the older off, but no luck.

"I'm sorry Taehyun." Beomgyu said as tears fell from his face, wetting the blanket.

"What are you doing?!"

"It's for Soobin."

He wrapped the blanket around Taehyun's head even tighter, making sure absolutely no air gets in, suffocating the other. He kept struggling to be released from Beomgyu's grip, but nothing worked.

After a few minutes, he stopped fighting back, and his body was left lifeless on the bed. Beomgyu soon removed the blanket and looked at the red head male that was no longer breathing. It was crazy to think about the fact that the two were just bonding.

But, even before Taehyun died, he was able to mutter out one word, which ended up being his last.

"I...I still love you...Beomgyu."
