„This apartment has more of a reasonable price, compared to the other ones I had shown you today. The living room is this way..."

A lady with a classic look showed us around the third flat today.

In the morning Taehyung and I decided to go and look around a few of the places we liked.

It was almost 6 pm. and I couldn't stop anxiously glancing at my watch.

The possibilities were endless of what could happen, and I'm afraid that either way, the consequences might be horrible.

"Well, It's getting late, I think we'll head home. Thank you for showing the apartments – we'll make sure to call, if we decide on something." I heard Taehyungs voice somewhere in the distance, conversing with the woman.

We went home and I volunteered choosing what to order for dinner.

I could feel my pulse getting faster and faster as time went by, I didn't knew how to occupy myself from the dark thoughts creeping into my head. In the end – I decided that fresh air would probably help, and went to sit on the bench in the balcony.

The sounds of cars driving by and music, coming from restaurants near my street – made me feel more at ease. I remember how, when I just got here, I used to oke about those sounds being the only reason for me to choose this place.

I haven't heard from my friends in a long time...

A shuffling behind my back made me jump and my pulse to quicken – again.

"See, you should rest, you're getting jumpy." Taehyung croaked.

"And you should be sleeping, why did you came here?"

"To make sure my roommate is not knocked out cold."

He made me make some space for him, and sat next to me, giving half of his blanket.

"Try to fall asleep, at least for a few seconds - I promise to not leave you alone. "

He reached his hand out and put my head onto his shoulder. Taehyung was my secet cozy place.

And he smells good too.

After a few moments of him watching the stars and me trying to ,at least, fall into slumber, I got an idea.

"Tell me a story."

"Huh?" Taehyung perked up.

"Since I can't sleep, tell me a story, it always helps – and I want to find out more about you too – so tell me something from your life."

"Like what ?"

"Well, I would like to know how you did met Yoongi."

"Hm... Let me see..." Taehyung breathed out. "Everything started about five years ago, when a boy with basketball uniform met a strange guy, who was handing out roses on Valentine's day..."

I blacked out soon after the part where they met for the second time and just partly woke up when I felt Taehyung carrying me to my bed. He laid me carefully, whispered goodnight and right about when he was ready to leave – he stopped, hesitating about something.

My mind was about to drift off but I felt my heart race million miles per hour when I felt a soft pair of lips ghost on my forehead. It was so hard to pretend that I was asleep.

He practically ran out of my room.

I don't even know if he understood, but the small gesture gave me hope that someone might save me and that somehow everything will be alright tomorrow, when I wake up.
