The Most Beautiful Moments In Lifeᵖᵗ² // OT7 BTS FF x OC

Hour and A Half

Date: First week of June.

The smell of alcohol was heavy in the air as I woke, and it was all I could smell on Jin's shirt. His chest heaved up and down as he snored. I pushed aside the haze in my mind as I tried to recall how we'd fallen asleep.

It came back to me in pieces. I remembered the two of us getting further stuck into the bottle, which I noticed lay discarded on the floorboards beside the couch. And I didn't remember us falling asleep, but as I pushed myself off Jin's chest and sat up, it felt like I'd somehow passed out on top of him. The pajama shorts and singlet I'd worn last night were still on, although twisted, and my eyes felt dry and sore. Like perhaps I'd cried, which wouldn't surprise me.

I reached for my phone to check the time and saw it was nearly nine so I gave Jin a shake to try to wake him, and once he'd opened his eyes and groaned I went over to get two glasses of water for us. As I returned and sat on the edge of the couch, Jin shifted to a sitting position. Although he could barely keep his eyes open, he tried.

"Is that for me?" Jin asked, gesturing towards one of the waters in my hand, and I passed it to him. "It's nine. What time are you guys leaving for the airport?" I asked, but my stomach sank. That's right. Today is the day they leave. The remnants of my hangover weren't doing me any favors right now, and it only made that pit in my stomach grow larger.

"Mhm. We leave in an hour and a half. I'll have just enough time to eat and shower." Jin, after emptying the glass in one long swig, put it aside and raised his arms in a languid stretch.

"Should I, um, come and say goodbye..?" I don't know why I hesitated, and Jin looked at me like he didn't understand what I was saying. "I'm going to assume it's your hangover talking, and that you didn't doubt whether you should come and say goodbye properly." His voice sounded dry, so I handed him the water I'd been sipping on too. He took it and thanked me.

"I'm going to wash up quickly. I'll meet you over there soon." Jin gave a nod at my suggestion, and as I collected a clean towel from my drawer, Jin stood from the couch. At first he was slightly wobbly, and he made a few woah sounds until he regained his balance. I chuckled watching him struggle, but he didn't scold me. Instead, he scoffed and went to the door.

As soon as I finished getting dressed, I strolled over the road with a heavy heart, but I didn't want to make this more difficult than it already was, so I shoved it down deep where it couldn't be heard. And I was thankful I had, because as I stepped in through the front door, there was a buzz of excitement about their trip. Jungkook hauled suitcases into the living room, and Hoseok was checking that all their bags were labeled. Namjoon was packing a passport away securely into some luggage, and Taehyung had been the one to look over and notice me from where he stood in the hallway.

"Hi." He said plainly before coming over to bring me inside. "Hi." I said back, letting him pull me past the chaos in the living room and into the kitchen. Jin and Yoongi peered up from the table, and I waved as Tae dragged me closer.

"So, it looks like you're all ready to go." I said as I slid into the seat beside Yoongi, and Tae hummed. "All ready except for Jiminie. I'll be back. I need to help him, so we aren't late." And with that, Tae disappeared back down the hallway.

"Here, drink this. You still look tired under the eyes." Jin said as he slipped a can of herbal remedy towards me, so I took it and thanked him.

"If you two plan on drinking, you should have invited me." Yoongi said, his hand reaching over my shoulder and pulling me closer. The feeling of him gently touching my shoulder was soothing, much more than the herbal remedy I'd taken a sip of.
