Not Your Typical Life Anymore.. [On Hold]

Chapter 13

Liz was laying on her bed, staring at her ceiling fan go around and around.

It was currently 1 a.m and she couldn't manage to fall asleep for even a second. She was really tired, considering she had to wake up at 6 to drop of David at his friends house, whom lives 3 hours away.

She kept letting out these heavy and restless sighs. She had already texted the guys and had the usual conversation they had.

How was their day?

How was hers?

Anything interesting happen?

"I miss you all."

"We miss you too."

The usual. She's been having these struggling nights for about a month now. She's tried everything. From drinking some tea or melatonin, to going on runs until she was exhausted or not take a single nap all day. Nothing was working.

"Aish.. Come on, fall asleep already", she muttered to herself while gently hitting the side of her head with her palm.

Once again she sighed and turned to lay in her side. Now there she was, staring at her phone on her night stand.

She just stared while thinking on what to do. She bit the inside of her cheek softly and grabbed her phone.

"Mmm... Aneyo?", Liz smiled to herself as soon as she heard that voice.

"Aneyo, Tae Tae .."

" Lizzy-ah?"

"Hmm.", She replied and nodded her head. She quickly realized he couldn't see that.

"Ah, I uhm, yes. Sorry, did I wake you or interrupt something? I can just call you later on."

" No!" , Liz covered her mouth a bit holding in her giggle.

Taehyung cleared his throat.

"I uh, mean, no not at all. We were just resting while Yoongi Hyung and Jimin Hyung finish up an interview. What's up?"

"Well, to be honest. I can't sleep. I haven't been able to for a couple of weeks now.", She sighed out tiredly while pinching the bridge of her nose.

"Yah!? That's not good! Is something bothering you?"

Elizabeth shook her head, "Ani, not that I know off. It's just been different around here."

"Eh? How?"

Elizabeth shrugged, "it's been ...."

"...."

" Really quiet. And lonely. Without you guys. I know, it must get annoying that I say this all the time but it's how I feel" she said shrugging again.

Taehyung frowned a bit and sighed while rubbing the back of his neck.

"Aniyo, it's not annoying. We're glad you remind us all the time. So don't worry."

Liz smiled relived in silence. The line was silent for a while, but neither felt weird or awkward. One of the things she loved about these conversations.

"C-could you sing me to sleep?", Asked shyly, Liz.
"I mean, I totally get it if not"

"What song?"

Elizabeth blinked surprised and smiled widely to herself.

" 4 o' Clock." , She nodded as she replied.

She absolutely loved that song. She loved how much emotion Taehyung and Namjoon put into it. The way they sing the words. It always pulls a string at her heart. She always feels at peace, even if it's meant to be something else. 

"Are you all set?", Asked Taehyung as he sat up in his place.

"Ne, Oppa", she answered snuggling up more to the blankets.

There was a moment of silence and the he started.

(Let's pretend it's in Korean, but I'm using the translated lyrics, cause holy jisoos I can't)

~ I wrote a long letter
To the moon one day
It isn’t brighter than you but
I lit a small candle

The nameless bird that sings
In the park at dawn
Where are you
Oh you

Why are you crying
It’s only me and you here
Me and you
Oh you

Your singing voice,
That follows deep into the night,
Brings the scarlet morning
One step, then another step

Dawn passes by and
When that moon falls asleep,
Then the blue light that was with me
Disappears ~

Elizabeth listened carefully at Taehyung's beautiful voice. Deep yet soothing and calming. She could feel her eye lids starting to get heavy.

" Ah, Namjoon Hyung is napping, so I'll have to do his part." Chuckled out Taehyung softly

"Hmm, that's fine." Whispered Liz and smiled.

~Today, too, I go on living just enough
Keeping in step, wearing my feet out just enough
The sun makes me breathless
The world has stripped me of all I have
Without a choice, with no other alternative,
Under the moonlight I am picking up my scattered self
I call you moonchild
We are the children of the moon
We draw breath from the cold air of dawn
Yes we’re livin and dyin at the same time
But right now it’s alright to open your eyes
Because like any movie, like any dialogue
The whole world is blue under the moonlight~

By the time he finished that verse, Liz was deep in sleep. He could hear her light and soft snores. Taehyung smiled to himself.

"Sarangae."

And with that he hanged up the call, feeling happy that he helped her.
