FALLEN (Zhenya x Taekjoo)

CHAPTER 6

Taekjoo sighed for the sixth time turning over to the side of the bed, he couldn't sleep.
The bed was comfortable but he wasn't comfortable probably because of the conversation he and Zhenya just had
Or was it the threat?
He didn't know but he knew he felt uneasy in the pit of his stomach.

Sighing once more Taekjoo got up, walked to the bathroom.
Reality hitting him once more that he's in hell and kicked out from heaven.

He filled the bath tub with warm water which might probably make him sleepy,
The water was a bit hotter than Luke warm water.

Hey at least he's gotten a hold of showers and bathtubs.
Taekjoo smiled to himself trying to feel positive about everything though everything felt like trash.

He enters the filled tub, sinking into the hot water and thoughts starts flooding into his head one by one
'will i even get to leave here, i don't even know how i got here, to make it worse I'm in hell of all places. Since I've been thrown out from heaven i have to start anew but not in hell though'

He sighed deciding to dismiss his thoughts by splashing hot water on his face then just sitting there, the hot water stinging his skin a bit but he likes it, It made him feel strangely light and relaxed he closed his eyes sinking more into the bathtub enjoying the warm water.
"Maybe I'll just stay in here for a little bit" Taekjoo mumbled to himself.
........

Taekjoo opened his eyes, the hot water was now cold.
He must've accidentally dozed off for an hour or more.
But no time to think about the time the water got cold, because the cold water was actually the reason he woke up.

His skin was cold and he was shivering a little. Angels don't have problems with cold but Taekjoo does because he's a weak angel.
He would've used his wings to make a barrier to cover him and make him warm but his wings were too small and he couldn't use them anyways.

He walked back to the bedroom after grabbing a towel and drying off.
Slipping back into his clothes he went back to bed, this time sleep actually came making him shut his eyelids close.

Taekjoo about to enter his sleep state was interrupted by a thud sound in the now dark room making him open his eyes, his heart beat picking up fast.

Hurriedly he turns on the lamp at the side table.
Taekjoo looked around but there was nothing.
Probably thinking he was paranoid he layed back on the bed but left the light on, honestly he was a little scared.

Taekjoo closed his eyes once more but was actually peeking, not fully closing his eyes to see whatever it was that made the sound in the room.

As a little scared he was, so was he also a little curious

Now Taekjoo pretending to be asleep was observing the dimly lit room.
The light from the lamp was helpful.

He observed for a while, not really seeing anything strange.
Deciding to finally give up and get some sleep, Taekjoo saw someone emerge from the corner of the room.

'was it Zhenya?' He thought
Maybe it was but there's a slim chance Zhenya would hide from him.

Taekjoo saw whoever it was walking towards him almost making him almost flinch and it wasn't Zhenya

Whoever that was or should he say whatever it was didn't have a face, just a dark figure standing in the distance looking at Taekjoo.

Taekjoo was scared but he wouldn't move, more like he couldn't move.

Taekjoo fully closed his eyes from fear of being caught.

Somehow he was suddenly comfortable after some minutes of closing his eyes.

He felt tired but he didn't want to sleep because of whatever it was in the room with him right now.

But in the end he miraculously drifted into sleep, he was already tired.
