Never without you

Chapitre 29

The coolness surprised him, and he quickly resurfaced, out of breath, couldn't help but chatter. But he took the time to undress to wash his clothes to be sure they would be soft without the sand and salt.

He hanged them on the warm rocks and laid down to warm up his freeze body. Taehyung was looking at the blue sky when a dragonfly came on his nose, like it was a leaf... He hadn't seen one since a long time, maybe the last one was in his grandma's garden, a long time ago. This one was beautifully all blue and green, and he felt a little disappointed when the insect flied away. Feeling warmed up, he put his barely moist clothes on, and returned to the group. He chose to follow the same path to not get lost, but when he reached the top of the boulders, he realized it was higher than he thought. Looking at the bottom, he felt dizzy and had to back away, his heart loudly bumped in his chest. Being afraid of the heights made him decide for another path, he didn't know how he could have climbed the rocks without being afraid of heights...

Walking in the forest, he came back down to the beach after a while and speeded up.

He had barely reached the group when a furious Jungkook appeared suddenly in front of him.

-Where were you ??? why did you go without tell me ?? do you know how much worried I was ??

The words made Taehyung angry, and he harshly replied :

-stop shouting at me like that !! I am not a baby ! you were all asleep and I didn't want to wake you up, that's all ! I thought it was urgent to found water if we wanted to survive !

-did you find it ?? asked a young man.

-yes I did, it's not so far from here, in the heights further.

Taehyung explained how he found the water falls and how the place could be good for them to settle, ignoring Jungkook who was standing beside him.

Taehyung didn't know what to do now they fought each other, he shouldn't have replied like that for sure, but Jungkook started it ! Fine, it was childish to react like that, but Taehyung was now uncomfortable, and he preferred running away rather than face the other...

As Taehyung noticed some suitcases on the sand, a tall guy explained they were from the plane, and they could get back them from the sea. There was about twenty of them on the sand, and some guys easily opened them up, people didn't have the time to lock them while their ran away.

-we will check all the suitcases, and everyone could choose whatever they want, there are more than we need.

For the first time, Taehyung looked around and after a while he realized they were just fifteen. Only fifteen...

-I know, it's terrible, right ? said a blond girl. It's such a few of us... most of us fainted when the plane bluntly lost altitude, and they didn't wake up...

Taehyung was speechless, overwhelmed by his emotions. So many people died in this plane, it was so sad...

The girl patted his back with compassion, and she came back to select things in the suitcases.

Taehyung found a warm blanket and sweats, as he was always cold although the sun was brightly shining in the sky and the weather was obviously tropical...

Each young chose whatever they wanted, sharing a suitcase with three of them. Inside one suitcase, they put every medicine they found and towels and toiletries.

After a while, they took the suitcases safe from the sea under trees and Taehyung led them all to the waterfalls. Of course, they happily jumped in the water to get rid of salt and sand while Taehyung looked at them, sat on a rock, looking around. He squinted when he noticed a dark area further on the big and high cliff behind him. The young man decided to cast an eye over it meanwhile the group was enjoying the water. It was maybe his lucky day as he came in a large cavern which could be a good refuge for the night.

As he was coming back to the waterfalls, a big boy came to him all smiley.

-hey, we didn't take the time to introduce ourselves, I am Namjoon !

Taehyung smiled too and soon, everybody was speaking their name. when Taehyung told them about the cavern, they followed him and thanked him because he literally saved them !
