Dancing with your ghost

Author's POV

A boy was sitting on the cliff, a beautiful one at that. The trees surrounding him, light breeze providing the comfort he so desperately looked for. It was their safe place, well his now.

He was looking up at the stars, finding a special one, his special one. He seemed peaceful, moonlight shining down on his face, but if one looked closely, they could see, feel the sadness through his eyes, reflecting through the mirror of tears inside them.

Someone's POV

It's been a week, a week without you. A week since you didn't cuddle me to sleep, a week without waking up to your morning breath, a full week without your hands cupping my face and showering it with sweet pecks. A week since I've been spending my days missing you every second and wishing for just one glance.

I hope you're doing well up there, even though I'm devastated here without you. When I... got to know about your car crash, I felt like my breath is stuck and would never come out. They told you're no more.

I wanted to say goodbye but I didn’t have the courage, I couldn't see you like that, in such state, and I still can't. You know how it makes me sad whenever you wouldn't give me attention then how could I see you when you wouldn't even ever look at me.

I want to hate you for leaving me but I can't, I love you for always making time for me even though you had lots of tasks to handle, I love for  being with me and I'll never stop. You being happy are all that matters. Your happiness is mine, Tae.

You remember how we had a dance date every Friday, well its Friday. You know, I have found a song that perfectly suits us.

Wanna hear it?

Author's POV

A tune quite familiar to me was heard in the silent night. Voice deep but filled with so much grief and hurt that anyone could guess the person suffered with great loss.

Yelling at the sky,
Screaming at the world,
Baby why'd you go away,
I'm still your girl,

How do I love, how do I love again,
How do I trust, How do I trust again,

I stay up all night tell myself I'm alright
Baby you're just harder to see than most
I put the record on wait till I hear our song,
Every night I'm dancing with your ghost,

He was dancing his heart out, his grief out, his love out. The love that he has for the one person he doesn't have any more. Since then he’s been questioning each and everything in his life.

He’s been asking to himself why this happened to him, what did he ever do to deserve this?  He feels lost to the point he doesn’t even now the purpose of his life anymore.

He had so many dreams so many wishes but now they all seem pointless now, after all the one who made everything worth it isn’t with him to live his dreams. He is desperately holding on to every single bit of his memories, of all the things that were once connected to him, to keep himself sane.

He danced and danced, letting himself get carried away by his emotions. It was like he was telling the world how much his love mattered to him.

Never got the chance to say a last goodbye
I gotta move on but it hurts to try
How do I love, how do I love again,
How do I trust, How do I trust again,

I stay up all night tell myself I'm alright
Baby you're just harder to see than most
I put the record on wait till I hear our song,
Every night I'm dancing with your ghost,

He was imagining him, dancing side by side, like they always did. He never knew when he started singing along, maybe because the only thing on his mind was how the lyrics represented him accurately. It felt like the whole song was made for him and his lover.

He remembered how he couldn’t wish him goodbye one last time, first he didn’t have the courage to see the face which once used to glow in the dark lying as pale as snow, the pink lips that once adorned sweet boxy smile pressed thin and lifeless, and those eyes, oh those sweet honey almond like eyes that once shined with mischief. But now it’s all gone, his eyes, his lips, his face, his heart and him.

He doesn’t know what happed to the body; they must have even prepared and finished the funeral, sent him so far away from him. He doesn’t know, he doesn’t know anything except that he’s never getting him back. He lost his faith I anything and everything. He was all he trusted and all he loved, and surely all he ever wanted.

The song was close to an end as he heard the rustle of leaves, something that’s been happening for long but he noticed just now. But still he chose to ignore it as it could’ve just been the wind. He stood still facing the view, the starry night sky in front of him. The soft wind blew his hairs back, drying off his locks wet from al the sweat.

He closed his eyes and whispered to the night, “I love you my Tae, forever and always. I wish we meet soon.”

Before he could open is eyes, he felt two soft palms pressing down on his eyes. He slightly panicked, “w-who are you? And what are you doing?”

“I’m granting your wish my love, like I should.” A deep voice whispered in his ears.

“Leav-“

Jungkook's POV

I was relishing in my memories of the past, just when I felt two hands on my eyes. Without thinking I asked the person who I deemed to be a stranger, criminal to be precise.

Grant my wish? How does this guy know me or anything about me?  And what wish? The only thing I wished for was my taehyung and it couldn’t possibly be-

And it all snapped, made me stop the words in my mouth. It all dawned on me, fuck it came crashing down on my mind, my heart and everything of me. And suddenly the hands, the fingers, he voice, it all started to feel familiar to me. It actually couldn’t be-

“It is. It is me Koo. It’ll always be me.”
