Everyday he would make paper planes from the school's rooftop, yet no one never knew why, every day he would throw those airplanes and watch where they would land. Sometimes in the trees, most of the time—all the time — on the schoolyard, each time he did it, he would see her, she would pick each plane up and throw them in the trash can. The male chuckled as he watched Y/n walk away, he knew she always stayed after school late due to being in the student council, she had many paperwork. She knew who was throwing the paper airplanes, it was none other than Kim Taehyung, the school delinquent. She, like everyone else, did not know why he threw the airplanes. But for her it was quite tiresome to pick each and everyone one of them up after school.
But one day as she picked up the paper planes, one of the planes had something written on it:
Open me. Y/n unfolded the paper plane and saw a letter.

Dear Y/n,
You and many other people may be wondering why I throw these paper airplanes. I have a few reasons:
1. I get to see you everyday despite us being in the same school, I don't get to see you often. And that's not because I'm a delinquent. It's because-to be honest- I'm very shy when it comes to you. I get nervous whenever I see you or when I'm near you. We only met once and that was back in middle school, we never talked except when we were partners for a project. Which I kind of felt bad since you had did most of the work...
2. Tomorrow I will be hospitalized. I have an illness that has no cure. And no it's not cancer. Today will probably will be my last day to see you.
3. I throw paper planes because to me it reminds me of freedom as well as when a paper plane flies through the air it creates a path or a route and lands wherever. I wanted my freedom away from this pain, I wanted to be free from this illness. So I created a path while I still can and had my way with life. I wanted to go on an adventure and see where life takes me. But to my dismay it looks like my flight is about to end.
4. I love you.

Sincerely,
Kim Taehyung

Y/n looks up at the schools rooftop and saw Taehyung smiling sadly at her.
"Stay there Tae!" She yelled, ever since middle school she had always been fond of the boy Kim Taehyung. Not because of his cool demeanor, it was because behind that bad boy facade he was a sweet and kind guy and she saw that in his eyes back in middle school. And that was when she fell in love with him.
Y/n ran all the way to the rooftop. Once she had gotten there she opened the door and saw Taehyung leaning on the fence.
"Tae..." She ran towards him and hugged him,
"Y/n..."
"I love you too..." She muttered into his chest, not wanting to make eye contact. Taehyung hugged Y/n tighter, not wanting to let go.
"Where's your phone?" He ask still embracing her,
"Yeah... Why?"
"Can I see it?" Y/n pulled away from the tight embrace and took out her in phone from her jacket uniform pocket.
"Here." Tae took it and put in his number and smiled at Y/n. "Uh should we go on a date before I go to the hospital tomorrow?" He grabbed Y/n's hands and held it, Y/n nodded with a smile.
"Yeah, let's go..." Taehyung, still holding her hand, walked out with Y/n.
He took Y/n to a coffeehouse nearby and the two talked for a while, laughing every now and then in the conversation. At that time, Y/n had gotten to know Taehyung more and more. As the sun was setting Tae took Y/n to an amusement park. Going on a few rides, having fun and such, their last ride of the night was the Ferris wheel. Once the two had gotten to the top, Y/n saw the city filled with colorful lights.
"Y/n..." Tae intertwined his hand with Y/n's, she turned to him,
"Ye–" Y/n was then cut mid-sentence by a pair of lips on hers, Taehyung pulled away slightly and pressed his forehead on top of Y/n's.
"I love you..."
"I love you too, Tae."
The two got off the ride once they got back to the ground. They walked to the bus station and waited together for the bus to come. Once it came, the couple rode in silence, Taehyung lies his head on Y/n's shoulder.
Finally reaching their destination, Y/n's house, Taehyung walked her to her door. Before bidding each other goodbye, she kiss Taehyung on the cheek then running off inside.
While climbing up the stairs, Y/n's phone vibrates and she saw that Taehyung had messaged her.
"Good night." Y/n read, replying good night as well.
________________________________________________________________________________________________________
Ever since Y/n started dating Tae, she had gotten the hospital address that he was in. Everyday after school she would visit him, however every time she visits, he's been getting more ill.

Walking down the hospital hallway towards Taehyung's room. She saw doctors and nurses in his room. Quickly rushing to his room Y/n ask the nurse what was going on.
"His heart mo—"
"We lost the patient!" One of the doctors yelled,
One still checking for Tae's pulse,
"We lost him..." He muttered taking off his mask,
"What do you mean 'we lost him'?! Please tell me it isn't true!" Y/n yelled tears streaming down her face,
The doctor looked at Y/n, "And you might be...?"
"I'm his girlfriend!"
"I'm sorry for your lost, miss... But your boyfriend is in a better place now..." A few nurses rubbed Y/n's back reassuringly whispering that it'll be okay.

[A year later]
Y/n sighs as she writes something on her clipboard.
"He can be checked out tomorrow. We'll give you the medication tomorrow. We'll tell you what you need to do with his medication tomorrow as well." Y/n told the patient's mother, she nodded and thanked Y/n before leaving.
"Hey, Y/n!" Jimin, another doctor in the hospital, greeted strolling towards her,
"Hey!" Y/n waved, putting her pen in her lab coat pocket,
"Wanna grab some lunch or are you busy?" He asked,
"Sure, just let me do something first and I'll meet you in the lobby." Jimin nodded and left Y/n's office,
"Hey– when did you get a tattoo?" Jimin ask once Y/n walked in to the lobby of the hospital,
"Huh? Oh I got it a week after I graduate from high school, why?"
"I never know you liked tattoos..."
"Not really... It's just that this just reminds me of a special someone whose no longer with me..."
"Oh... I'm sorry... I bet that person meant a lot to you..."
"Yeah..." She smiled remembering the memories she had shared with Taehyung.
