CONNEXA | NAMJIN

4-

Now that Seokjin had introduced himself Namjoon wouldn't just stop staring. While Seokjin thought to himself "What a weird one" letting the human be by himself and his frozen eyeballs, Seokjin decided to look around, confused. He was on Earth suddenly and how? The person he thought was Galen isn't Galen but a literal human. That's a lot to process now. He needs to be back on Orience. 

Namjoon watched as Seokjin's expression's shifted from confusion to determination. Stretching his hands ahead Seokjin tried to connect with Orience as a faint blue glow was around them, and the glow only seem to grow brighter but then it started to flicker and dimmed off. To which Seokjin frowned, he concentrated and tried again. The glow reappeared, only for it to disappear once again.  

Standing a few feet away was Namjoon, feeling fear and curiosity. "What are you doing?" He asked the obvious to the alien, with a shaky voice. 

But he was ignored by the other who continued to focus on his task. The more he tried the weaker the glow became, until it vanished completely. Seokjin was in shock that nothing seemed to work.

"Seokjin?" Namjoon called out while taking careful steps ahead to him.

Looking at Namjoon, the frustration and exhaustion was all evident in Seokjin's eyes. "I am trying to return to Orience." he needs to go home, but why can't he reach? "But something is blocking me. My powers.. they are being drained"

While Namjoon just stared at Seokjin all confused. Orience? Powers? what? "What's Orience, Seokjin?"

Their world, Orience is supposed to be a hidden world to everyone else in the universe and his planet known to someone from Earth is just as dangerous so he hesitated about revealing too much to the human. 

"It is not something you need to worry about" That's all Seokjin could say and avoid the other. Because he'll go back to his planet in few, erasing the other's memory so no explanation was needed.

Ignoring Namjoon and his confused expressions, he once again tried to connect back to his planet. Eyes closed and all focused. The blue glow returned around, a lil powerful before it completely gave out and ended. He was now swaying, moving sideways, his head light. Before Namjoon could react, Seokjin collapsed down on the floor, unconscious.

He rushed to Seokjin's side, worried and confused at the same. "Hey Seokjin?" now shifting the other's head onto his lap, Namjoon patted his cheeks. He had no idea what Orience was or why Seokjin's powers were failing, and he couldn't just abandon him. He watched Seokjin's peaceful face, noting the slow rise and fall of his chest. 

Seokjin wouldn't just wake up, and Namjoon grew concerned. He picks him up, and was a little taken back at how he was so light. Makes him comfortable onto his bed, and couldn't stop staring at this stranger who seemed so familiar yet distant and scary at the same time.

Namjoon found himself moving back Seokjin's hair, gently tucking it behind his ear. Until his phone rang and broke the bubble, quickly moves to it and checks.

It was Hoseok who spammed him with tons of text asking "ARE YOU STILL IN YOUR DEN?" "WHEN ARE YOU COMING OUT OF YOUR HIBERNATION?" "TOUCH SOME GRASS JOONIE BEAR" and so it continued.

Hoseok, his homie who is there for him at all times, ever since they were kids, he made sure his friend get's out of his room. It's more than friends, a brotherhood. 

Sighing he leaves Hoseok a text "I'll call you soon, got busy with some stuff. wait for me my solar powerplant." chuckling he keeps his phone down and moves to check on Seokjin, placing the back of his hand on Seokjin's forehead.

"Your temperature is rising!" It was high, and that was concerning so he immediately moves downstairs and gets a damp salt water cloth, places it on Seokjin's forehead. He continued to do so for long and later wipes his face. The temperature was now neutral, but Seokjin still didn't seem to wake neither move an inch. 

"When are you waking Mr.. uhm? wide shoulders?" Pokes onto Seokjin's side. He wasn't as much scared of the other now even after knowing well about his powers and how he said he's not from Earth. 

Why was he relaxed over having a stranger laying unconscious in his bed, but that doesn't mean he wasn't worried about him. He also doesn't know why did he bother to put on the damp water cloth and checked on him.

The afternoon sunlight came in through the curtains, Namjoon's anxiety grew. He didn't know what else to do but wait. 

Finally as the sun began to settle, Seokjin moved. His eyes fluttered open and met the human's eyes waiting on him. He quickly sat up as the realization of all the events that happened struck him, he's not on Orience. 

"Are you okay?" The human asked him and offered water, his voice was filled with concern was it? 

Namjoon was relieved when Seokjin opened his eyes and even more when he replied "I am... recovering. My powers are still exhausted, but I will be fine." 

Not knowing what to say next Namjoon sat there, staring at him obviously waiting for an explanation to all that happened and how did he even spawned there. All he knew about the other was, I'm Seokjin, from Orience. 

Realizing what the human was staring at him for Seokjin spoke after sipping the water. Water is common on his planet too. "I am from Orience" 

When he had woke up and saw how there was a damp cloth onto his forehead and a blanket over him, which showed how the Earthling isn't an harm, rather anything he didn't even fight back earlier. Now that he's here and his powers are all emptied off his hand he decides to trust him. That's all he has. 

"You definitely don't know about Orience, but yes there is a planet as such. Which happens to be my home. I was in there until I felt a magnetic pull and everything was too bright for my understandings and the next I saw was you."

Namjoon on the other hand, listened to him. If someone told him he was high he'd accept it. Cause there's an alien in his room, talking to him, looking just like a human, but nothing like a human because his beauty- what was even going on?

The crystal, which was on the desk suddenly started glowing with a sound just like a wind chime. Which caught both of their attention and Namjoon quickly moved to his desk, staring at it as he thought. The crystal is something so weird, it glowed and it even tingled at his finger tips when touched. Probably no other crystal has properties to do so, and just when he found the crystal, Seokjin came along. Is it connected? To him and Seokjin?

Before he thinks further, Seokjin had already rushed to his side after getting a view of the crystal and he almost shouted at that in surprise. "Aetherion!" He stood there staring at the crystal with wide eyes. While Namjoon looked in between those two, the weird crystal and the handsome alien. 

What was happening? He doesn't know. Why was it happening? He doesn't know. Why was all that going on, happening to him? He doesn't know. But the feeling of his world getting a new story, something that'll change him, forever.
