Arrange Marriage - Kth.jnk [Completed]

Episode 10

       "Where are we going, Tae?"

     "I have something to show you."

     He guided me to the right side of the house where a walking on a little forest. After our meal, we decided to going outside and Taehyung asked me to accompany him.

    We walked at the beautiful path with a tall trees growing on the both sides.

     "This used to be bare without anything growing here." I said breathlessly.

      "And now it's full of life." He said admirably.

      "And this is not the only thing i want to show you." He pulled my hand to the right as we continued walking.

      Another 10 minutes and we stopped at a big tree house in the woods.

     "Wow! Oh my god, it's finished!" I exclaimed.

     Mr. Kim had started building Taehyung's tree house that year before everything happened. I'm surprised he still decided to finish it. And it looked big enough for a dozen people.

     "Yeah, my dad wanted it done knowing i would be back someday. You wanna check it out?" He turned to me and asked.

     "Ofcourse! You don't even have to asked, Tae. I replied happily and excited.

     I ran inside the three house and directly climbed at bed room upstairs. And Taehyung chuckled and follow me inside the tree house.

     "Can we stay here tonight?" I asked, full of hope.

     "We can, but you have school tomorrow and i have work." He said in practical manner.

      "Well, we can stay to look at the stars and then we'll drive back late." I suggested slowly.

     "Alright, we'll stay until 11, okay?" He said decisively.

     After talking a randon the things, we both decided to laydown on the bed and looked up at the sky, gazing the stars. As for our past, it only consisted of things we did together as kids. He never mentioned his mom though so i decided to bring it up.
 
      "Do you miss your mom?" I could feel his body tense up next to me as he answered my question.

      "I do." And that was it. I waited for him to say more but he didn't. I was starting to notice that he tended to give really short answers to questions he didn't want to talk about.

     And at the moment, Taehyung turned off the lights in the room and stars appeared above us.

     "It's so beautiful." I whispered as if scared that my loud voice would scatter all the star away.

     He let out a soft sound as a way of agreeing and pulled me close. My head rested on his shoulder and his hand rested at my hip as we both stared at the stars in the sky.

    After a while, he urged me to move. I couldn't see anything so he had to guide me with his hands. He move one of his legs so i would sit between them while facing him. His hands cupped my face and pulled me in for kiss. My hands stayed on his thigh as my arms supported some of my weight.

    Like all his kisses, all i could do was melt away like an icicle under the hot sun. My body squirmed and craved for his touch. Even with clothes on, anywhere he touched he left a blazing trail of heart that burned my skin, in a good way. I finally went up for air when he lifted me up to stand on my knees as his lips went down my neck.

     His hand got under my dress and roamed all over my tingling skin. They were like good kids that stayed within appropriate areas and never strayed far into the forbidden forest.

     "I think.. I'm falling for you."

    He mumbled softly against my collarbone and then gently bit it, that sent chills down my body and made my toes curl.

    "What did you say?"

I asked hazily as i was drowning in ecstasy.

   I didn't quite hear what he said. He didn't repeat and i was too dazed to ask again.

    After a moment of long soaking everything up and and locking them in my long term memory file, Taehyung and I walked back our way to summer house, he took my hand and guided us back to the house

    As we walked, i couldn't help but have a sinking feeling Taehyung gave my hand a squeeze and asked.

    "What are you thinking?"

   "Today had been too perfect. Whenever things go too smoothly, I couldn't help but feel something bad will happen, like the calm before the storm." My voice sound uneasy.

    "I didn't know you wer superstitious." He laughed lightly.

    "I'm not." I replied.

   And it was true, i wasn't, but for some reason, this time, my gut was telling me to worry.

     Why do i feel like something bad will happen?
