Fate Often Mistook [A V-Hope Fanfic]

"Woah, the top is so pretty!!!"

The students who had reached the top point of the mountain yelled happily, made the ones who still stuck down there to walk faster. And yes, the scenery upside there just made their hard works fully paid.

There was a large stony river beside the top, separated by a small gate. The top point was designed to be similar like a balcony where they can stand properly. The wind was so breezy yet calm, and at the other side of the top, you can see the village from afar. Their roofs looked so small from up there, yet they were too beautiful.

So nice, isn't it?

Luckily the balcony could support all the juniors and seniors, it was the big one. People were busy sightseeing and chattering, but Taehyung was ways too immersed with the river's scenery to talk. He just stood up with his hands on the gate, his eyes locked on the river's stream.

Hoseok slowly approached Taehyung by standing beside him, but Taehyung didn't respond. Hoseok chuckled and said, "I didn't know it would be this great."

Taehyung looked at him, but instead of replying Hoseok's words, he asked, "How's your wound?"

"Oh," Hoseok mumbled. "It is fine." He wrapped one of his arms around Taehyung's waist and hugged his side, made Taehyung felt the flutter inside his heart and stomach again. Hoseok smiled seeing Taehyung's shocked respond and then he said, "Thanks."

Taehyung just nodded, he didn't want to reply with words because he knew that he would crazily stutter.

"You know, I said you are lucky because you have me," Hoseok continued, "But I also want to say that I am luckier because I have you."

Again, the glimpse of blush appeared at his cheeks. His heart started to beat faster than before too, realizing that it was too great to believe that they had each other and felt lucky because of it.

"T-the scenery is pretty," Taehyung said, tried to get off the topic. He immediately looked back at the river and tried to get himself immersed in it.

Hoseok chuckled, but instead of answering and looking at the scenery, he stared at Taehyung's side profile. The short bangs that slightly covered his eyebrows... the darkened eyes that gave glares and sweet stares, the nose that curved prettily and the small lips that often spitted mean words and stutters.

"Yes... it's so pretty," Hoseok muttered.

...

"Here they areeee," Yoonjin spoke with four bottles of wine with her. She sat down the floor, joining the other seven boys and two girls who had been there.

It was their second night in the mountain. All the students decided to stay at another house at the top point before finally going down at the third day. And Thank God, the second house had a heater in the room so it won't be too cool. It's been night, and all of them were finally allowed to play or to do anything they wanted.

Since yesterday their game got cut, they decided to continue it. It was still the sticks-and-king game; let me explain about it again. A cup filled with sticks would be shook, before then you have to write numbers at the end of the sticks, but you have to write 'king' at one stick. The one who gets the king stick would make two people with certain numbers to do anything, and those two unlucky people can't avoid it.

Do you think it's fun? Yes, it was, but since it was a too-normal game with no bets and stuffs, the boys and the girls decided to add a rule. If you don't want to do what the king tells you so, you can just drink a bowl with mixed alcohols in front of them.
