Not Your Typical Life Anymore.. [On Hold]

Chapter 17

"yah?! I thought you said they were behind glass?!"

Hoseok yelled at Namjoon almost panicking while pointing at a zoo keeper with a python hanging on his arms.

"Oppa, they do, but they also do that in case any kids or even adults want to atleast poke it." , Liz sighed out and walked over to see a white alligator the exhibit had.

Hoseok had been freaking out the whole time they were in there. It was only 8 minutes since they walked in. The amount of times Hoseok has screeched in terror, was quiet record breaking.

Jungkook on the other hand was amazed. He would almost hop from one window frame to another, trying not to miss out on any of the reptiles.

Liz crouched down while leaning her hand on the window infront of her. She's seen this alligator quiet a few times, but it never fails to amaze her. Especially it's red eyes. Quiet fascinating in her eyes.

"It never moves though.." she whispered to herself.

"Eh? Who doesn't move?"

Liz looked up and saw Taehyung looking down at her with a raised brow.

"Ah, the alligator." She pointed to it and Taehyung followed with his eyes.

He sat down next to Liz and crossed his legs while also studying the unsual colored creater.

"I mean, it most likely does move to eat and stuff, but in all the years I've come to visit, it's always in this position." Liz pointed once again, this time pressing her finger against the thick glass.

"Hmm." He nodded while stroking his chin as if he was thinking really hard.

Liz watched him and then realized that he's probably having an imaginary conversation with the animal in his head. She squinted her eyes a bit and kept looking at him.

He didn't seem to notice.

Liz then started to slowly lean her body closer to him while placing her hands on the ground for support.

"Taehyuung..", she whispered trying to get his attention. But no luck.

She leaned closer whispering Everytime.

"Taehyung!", She called when she was practically resting her chin on his shoulder.

"Mm?", He simply hummed out and turned his head to face her.

Liz's eyes grew a bit wide and her cheeks instantly turned quiet red. She shook her head and leaned away while getting up.

"I - uh, nothing. You just spaced out for a minute." She mumbled out and rubbed her arm nervously.

Yah, why am I acting like this? Am I getting sick? What the actual fuck Elizabeth.

Taehyung just looked up at her and laughed a bit at what she said.

"Ah, sorry Lizzy-ah", he smiled.

Liz gripped her shirts sleeve in her palm and looked away quickly. Thankfully, she wore a long sleeve shirt or else what would've she gripped on to? The air?

"Uh uhm, where's Jin Oppa? I'm going to look for him in case he's lost." She spoke a bit rapidly and walked off.

Taehyung blinked feeling a bit confused, but he shrugged it off and got up.

"Hyung! Wait for me!" He called after Namjoon who was still struggling with Hoseok.

"I. Need. Help."

"What now? Are you having another mid-life crisis?", I could feel John roll his eyes.
