Air filled you. But not your body. Air filled your soul.

You opened your eyes to bright white light. And you could not see anything else.

You took a look at yourself and palmed your chest but no sign of any injury.
You were wearing a white dress and your hair was clean.

It's like you were standing in a room infinitely filled with white light. It was surprising that you didn't go blind by it.

"Where the bloody hell am I?" you asked out loud.

"Y/N." A low voice called you. A voice you already knew and not the one you really wanted to hear right now.

You turn your head to your right and Chanyeol was standing there, in a white suit. You took a step back.

"Don't worry." he started, "I'm not going to harm you. And it was never my intention. I'm so so sorry about what I did. I can't dream of getting your forgiveness before I go but I wanted to let you know how much I regret everything." He sighed and looked down.

"What am I doing here?" is all you said.

"You're.." he bit his lip, "you're dead Y/N, and so am I."

"What?! And wait how are you dead? Did Jungkook do this?" you rushed him to answer your questions.

"Well as much as he wanted to.." he laugh harshly, "he didn't. Let me explain everything."
You waited.

"Didn't anyone tell you Y/N? How you become an angel of death?" he asked suspicious.

Slowly, so slowly, you were beginning to understand.

"You remember what happened? I was aiming that knife at Jungkook and you interfered. You wilfully sacrificed yourself to save him. The knife ended up in your heart Y/N."

"And I didn't survive at the hospital?"

"No you didn't." He looks sadly into your understanding eyes.

"So now I'm an angel of death?"

"You have the right to refuse." He smiles sincerely at you, lovingly. "But I don't see any reason to. The deity ended my life as an angel but I'm here as a messenger to see if you accept it or not."

Chanyeol walks closer, "Look at it. If you say yes you'll live again for a few decades or even centuries and alongside Jungkook and his friends. If you say no then... you'll go to heaven alone and you'd be leaving your angel on earth alone."

"Why are you doing this for me now? Why are you willing to let me live with Jungkook?" So many questions in your head. You were dead. And it was so hard to believe.

"Because everything I did was wrong" he started, "I regret what I did and I still love you you know. So now if I'm gonna stop existing I don't want to leave knowing I screwed all your life. I want to leave knowing you're headed to a happy life. A happy ending.

"So what are you going to decide Y/N?"

You stared at him and said clearly, "I forgive you Park Chanyeol. Only because I took the knife and because you're trying to make things right. That's all."

"It's enough for me." He sais gratefully with his hands clasped together.

"And as for my choice to leave or stay..."

"Make me an angel of death Park Chanyeol."
