Possibly, the forrest?
I maintain my composure and lean towards Tae, reaching my hand out of my sweater paws. His empty hand unconsciously makes its way towards mine, interlacing my slim fingers with his own.
A sigh of happiness is heard from him, and we continue down the bumpy path I know all too well. I hum at him, and he nods in response.
I brush my other hand across my collarbone, wincing as I press against my most recent hickey. It's still fresh, so it's a bit sore. I smiled warmly at the familiar sight of a worn path, and the distant smell of the river.
I climb out of the car, temporarily letting go of Tae's hand before reattaching myself to his side, craving the warmth.
I look down and follow the path I've come to memorize, and watch as the odd raindrop falls from the canopy of redwood trees above us. I pass through the short area of untouched land and catch sight of the old place where we made so many memories.
I smile and let go of Taehyung's hand, jumping down and walking through the light rain to a worn mattress in the middle of the abandoned pool.
I feel it dip beside me as I'm already laying down, Tae beside me.
I look straight up, my eyelashes catching the occasional raindrop.
We lay there for what seems like years as the clouds go away and the moon reveals itself, hanging weakly at the edge of the sky.
The stars surround it, framing the perfect scenery around us.
As another cloud threatens to approach, this one more menacing than the last, Taehyung props himself up and looks at me. I tilt my head and he just nods.
I sigh and sit up, reaching my arms out to him, like a small child. He chuckles a bit and picks me up, carrying me like you'd carry a toddler.
He climbs up the edge of the pool and lowers me into the car before draping a blanket over me.
I smile contently as he gets in and turns on the car once more, playing Elvis as I drift off into a sweet slumber.
I wonder where we're going next.
