I could stay awake just to hear you breathing. Watch you smile while you are sleeping. While you're far away and dreaming .I could spend my life in this sweet surrender, I could stay lost in this moment forever. Every moment spent with you is a moment I treasure.

Next day Mina didn't show up at school, nor the day after tomorrow, nor next week. With every passing second that I couldn't see her I was becoming more and more worried. I was so frustrated by such a sudden departure that I became my own shadow. If before meeting Mina I was an annoying strangely silent boy at the end of the classroom constantly with his headphones on, now I became the strangely silent, but overly angry boy with his headphones constantly on and his brains off.

Don't wanna close my eyes. I don't wanna fall asleep.'Cause I'd miss you, baby and I don't wanna miss a thing.

I would go to school, sit at all or most of my classes looking and feeling like a zombie, I avoided skipping them because I hoped to sooner or later see her, though I never did. Then I would creep to the music room and as always find the door shut. I would stick my ear to the wooden surface, but not a single sound would come out a room. I would come back home, go upstairs, jump on my bed and lie there all day long until it was time to go to school.

Even Yoongi didn't bother asking me what's wrong. Not that he cared before, but even for me this behaviour was strange and my parents quickly noticed. My dad didn't think about it much, I could hear mom telling him to go and have a chat with me, but he would always find an excuse. My mom however didn't look over the situation so easily. I was pretty sure that she already started looking for a therapist.

'Cause even when I dream of you the sweetest dream would never do, I'd still miss you, baby and I don't wanna miss a thing

It lasted for a month, my mental and physical state didn't change until one gloomy winter's afternoon. As always the bell rung announcing the end of the lessons and everyone rushed out of classrooms and school hurrying themselves to get home and get started on doing whatever normal kids were doing as I stumbled to the music room. Even after this much time that has passed I still had little hope in my heart that was slowly dying.

I almost past by the room without checking, my eardrums were being blasted off with some hard rock piece. I didn't usually listen to that kind of music, but it pretty much summarised my inner world so I just let it be. As I was about to walk away something caught my attention. The door leading to the classroom was slightly open, temptingly inviting me to check maybe even come in.

I took out one earbud. The hard rock in other didn't really allow me to hear anything else but the cracking voice of the vocalist anyways, so I just let both of the earphones lie on my shoulders hanging from ny neck, wrapped around my collar. I took a step towards the room and practically glued myself to the wall next to it.

One note. One sound. One single piano key being pressed. It repeated itself over and over again to the point where anyone pressing the key would have went crazy from the sound melting their brain. Anyone unless someone who couldn't hear what it was doing.

Lying close to you feeling your heart beating. And I'm wondering what you're dreaming, wondering if it's me you're seeing then I kiss your eyes and thank God we're together and I just wanna stay with you in this moment forever, forever and ever.

With a little flame ot hope in my heart suddenly turning into a huge bonfire I pushed the door open.

I don't wanna close my eyes, I don't wanna fall asleep. 'Cause I'd miss you, baby and I don't wanna miss a thing.'Cause even when I dream of you, the sweetest dream would never do, I'd still miss you, baby and I don't wanna miss a thing.
