The darkness doesn't scare me anymore. It felt like a home now. Jimin, had lived in it for years, a place he knew something well he could navigate it's every corner with his eyes closed. But for him, I was home. He looks at me as if I were the only thing that made him believe in concepts he had never understood before, things like light and soul.
The moonlight spilled over us. Jimin, sat opposite to me shirtless, his hairs slightly tousled and disheveled from our last lovemaking session.
Suhani- That's cheating!
I exclaimed throwing him a glare, if it was someone on my place that person would be six feet into the ground, but since it's me, so he doesn't mind. I caught him watching me, his gaze heavy and unreadable. I focused on my cards, my brow furrowing in concentration, unaware that he was counting the seconds, mourning the fact that our private world was about to change.
He didn't like changes, he couldn't control, especially when they involved me. But he was preparing to sacrifice his own peace for my sake. That was his version of love. To give me what I needed, even if tore at his possessive nature.
Jimin- No cheating! You have to learn how to bluff better.
He said quietly, his voice like velvet. I pouted my lips. I knew I was failing miserably at this. I wasn't a mathematical card-counter, or a master of deception like him. I was just me. Exasperated, I threw my card down into the table and sighed loudly.
The wind caught my hairs, moving the strands wildly as we sat in the balcony of his place, high above the city of London. Below the city shimmered with city lights. I pulled my knees to my chest, making myself small onto the couch as I stared out at the view I felt Jimin's eyes on me, taking me in as if I might disappear if he blinked.
Suhani- Jimin?
I whispered, my breaking the silence.
Jimin- Hmm?
He reached out, his fingers brushing a strand of my hair.
Suhani- What do we do now?
I asked, I had spend the last twenty four hours trying to to process the revelations of his plan that had been thrust upon me. I am going to leave for New York, to complete my medical study.
Jimin- What do you want to do?
I turned to look at him, my heart aching with a mixture of vulnerability, and the distance we are about to have between us in just few hours.
Suhani- I don't know.
Jimin- Trust me?
I nodded instantly. The moment ignite the wild rush energy inside him with that simple nod. He reached to grab my waist with one hand, pulling me closer. My breathing escalated as he brought me over him. My hands find his bare shoulder as I straddle him, settling over his lap.
