power trip - j.cole + miguel
The entire ride to get food was completely silent. Music played for the entire drive there and back, and Taehyung hasn't said anything since he and Jimin left the house.
If Jimin were to describe what he looks like right now, he would say he looks like a sad toddler.
"What's wrong with you Taehyung?" Jimin asks finally breaking at least an hour's worth of silence.
"Nothing." Taehyung replies eating an onion ring. He's not in the mood to talk and if he's honest, he'd rather go to sleep right now.
With a slight hangover and the addition of seeing Jordan, he's not exactly feeling uppity.
"So if I go up there and ask Maddie-"
"She's probably with her boyfriend right now I doubt she'll even answer the door for you." Taehyung says cutting him off.
Jimin slowly sits back down and looks at Taehyung. Now he for sure knows he's jealous that Maddie is with her boyfriend and he can't help but feel bad for him.
"You know home wrecking is always an option." he jokes trying to lighten the mood.
Taehyung looks at him with a blank expression and takes his glasses off, rubbing in between his eyes and sighing.
"I'm not going to do that." he says quietly. "She's not that type of person."
To Jimin it's very clear that Taehyung has feelings for Maddie, and he's hurt that she's with someone else. If he didn't he wouldn't be moping around.
Taehyung can't help but think about how nothing he said to her mattered. Maybe that's why she said they didn't need to talk, she was always going to go back to Jordan.
If he had known that, he would've kept his mouth shut, and not invited her to that party. He would've gone with Jimin or even stayed home. But you can't reverse time. So now all he feels in his heart is embarrassment and regret.
"I'm gonna go for a walk." he tells Jimin as he stands up. Going to his bedroom to grab his camera, he decides to put this energy into something positive, maybe he'll get some good shots out of this.
He puts his headphones on and puts his phone in his pocket, inspiration could hit at any moment.
After about 15 minutes of walking, he hasn't taken any pictures.
There's nothing to inspire him.
The only thing he's thinking is that he's an idiot who keeps embarrassing himself. And now he can't do what he loves the most.
Taking a picture.
The wind blows and brown leaves start to fall off of the trees. He turns around and looks at what's behind him.
A group of fall-colored trees behind a singular green tree. The last green tree.
He takes multiple pictures with his camera, trying to get some with the leaves falling and some without.
He stops taking pictures and stands there as he looks at the trees. While every other tree is changing, a green tree stands loud and proud in the middle, remaining the same, sticking out from the others.
He takes one last picture and starts to head back to the suite.
Turns out he still has a good eye.

"Nah you definitely cheating." Jordan says as Maddie gets yet another hole-in-one.
She scoffs and grabs her chest pretending to look offended.
