THE WIZARD [vkook]

51: dreams

It was the next day and Taehyung hadn't been able to find Jungkook after their last encounter. So he had again returned to the pharmacy where Jimin awaited him with homemade dinner. Freshly bought ingredients from the friday market made into a delicious meal.

"So any luck today?" Jimin asked while scooping their food on the plates.

"not a sign, not a word, absolutely nothing at all." Taehyung sighed and took his plate, taking it to the table.

"you're not going to give up after he was so mean to you?" Jimin asked. He didn't get what kept Taehyung interested in finding him again after Jungkook said those things. He clearly doesn't care about him anymore. He doesn't want the human to get hurt.

"i just... I feel like there are still things I need to know from him. And i...I don't know" Taehyung poked his food. He wasn't quite sure why but he felt like there was something not right. He just can't put his finger on it just yet. When he was with Jungkook yesterday it felt...Different. Not because of his attitude.

"alright. You do what you need to do. I will be here for you at any time" the other smiled and they started eating. Their conversation soon after switched to more casual topics and they even shared a laugh.

After dinner, Taehyung had taken a shower. He took a long one, maybe a bit too long. He will make it up to Jimin's parents for that later. But he needed it. The hot water washed off his worries and relaxed his muscles. It was comforting to be in the hot water for a while. So he was more relaxed when he went to bed. He didn't feel the headache anymore. He can go and sleep without thinking of those things. It was a problem for tomorrow. Right now he can use some good rest.

"ooh i love this bed" Taehyung smiled and flopped on the mattress pulling the covers over him. The guest room bed was so luxurious. You wouldn't expect it from a citizen's house. But then, Ouvasta was a rich kingdom, it wasn't THAT surprising.

Anyway, he had hopped into bed and rolled onto his side, letting a deep sigh to fully relax his body.

But a small part of him could not feel at ease. It was asking for a special black haired man to be there. He had been traveling with him for so long and longing for him that he can't give it up.
He wants him...

Trying to fall asleep he was pushing back any thoughts and feelings by making up a random story in his head. Letting that play until everything faded away and he fell asleep.

Drifting off into a strange dream....

'A person was walking around a field. A grassy field filled with flowers. The person walked towards a hill, and a person awaited him there.... He felt happiness, the person smiled and approached the figure with yellow eyes. But suddenly the sky turned red and the yellow-eyed person turned into a corpse and fell down.

The person flinched and stumbled back. The ground under him began to shake and the ground started to crack. The corpse fell into the cracks and disappeared.

Panic started to rise in the person. He felt the need to flee. But before the person could move the floor under him sank and he fell down. A bright purple glow engulfed him until darkness took over.'

"ah!" Taehyung shot up in bed gasping and clasping his chest. He felt so many emotions inside of him, and sweat formed in his forehead when he fell.

No wait, in his dream he fell. He was safely in bed. But what was that about? He had never had such a strange dream before.

"I need water" He muttered, trying to break his own tension. With shaky legs he left the bed and went to the bathroom where he filled a cup with water.
He took a few big gulps and looked in the mirror. His yellow eyes stared back at him.

"Come on Tae, figure it out," he told himself. Yellow eyes, he saw those in his dream too. Did he see himself?

No that can't be. He had never been to such place before....Wait, he did visit a flower hill once.

"did i see Taehyung there?" he asked into the air. The death place of Ouvasta's Prince was there on a flowery hill.
But who was he in the dream? Was he having a nightmare about what he saw that time they visited that place or.... Was he maybe looking through Jungkook's eyes but in Taehyung's head? Neither of the two made any sense.

Speaking of Jungkook..... He misses their moments so much. He doesnt get why it was different now. It hurt his heart to see Jungkook act like that. It was as if the kiss didn't mean a thing.

Ah...The kiss.

Short but a strong memory in his mind. He still remembers him at that moment.
The soft breeze that flowed through their hair, the hand that grabbed his wrist. He remembers looking into Jungkook's eyes surprised-.......

"wait a minute......" Taehyung's thoughts got cut off and he frowned.

He got it.
