The Boy In Black - A BTS Fan Fiction

Eyes Wide Open

When Namjoon turned away from the front door he has two pizza boxes balanced in his arms while kicking the door with his foot to close it. The tall boy awkwardly scooted across the floor and over to the couch were Aeryn was sat still giggling from the previous events. As he sat he carefully placed the two boxes on the small coffee table that he had now pushed back in to the center of the room, grinning as he did.

"So what did you like to watch ? A movie? Or maybe a crappy reality TV show ?" Namjoon questioned raking his eyes over Aeryn. "Anything but channel 7." She replied saddened by the thought of having to even think of the news ever again. Seeing the pain inscribed all over her face Namjoon shuffled towards her and placed his hand on her knee. Taking his large hand in hers she turned towards him and smiled a bit, her deep blue eyes wide with confusion. Just like earlier she layed her head on his legs and he stroked her hair but this time she didn't fall asleep, instead they talked for hours and while they did the pair tangled and untangled their fingers like they were tying ribbons and then deciding they they wanted to undo them again.

After what felt like hours they both went to their rooms and tried to sleep but neither could. A storm had covered the sky in strobe lights and bass drums, with every beat of the drum Aeryn's ears rang. 20 minutes past until Namjoon heard shuffling nextdoor and then a door shut. He thought that Aeryn must've been going to the bathroom or getting a drink until he saw his door handle move.

When the door opened Aeryn stood in its frame, tugging nervously at the sweater Namjoon had given her earlier. "Aeryn are you okay ?" Namjoon felt that all he did these days was ask questions. Aeryn shook her head. "No, I'm not, im- im- Joonie I'm scared." At that Namjoon got out of the bed and almost ran to hold the girl in his arms and he felt Aeryn's breath hitch slightly as he did. "It's okay. I've got you. I'll protect you. I promise." He said rubbing her back and cooing in her ear. When they pulled away Aeryn looked up at the knight in black armour that had sworn he would protect her. "Can I stay here tonight ? You know like with you ?" Namjoon smiled and tucked a stray curl of auburn behind her ear. "Of course you can." He said and hugged her again.

Namjoon carried her to the bed that was push against the back wall of the bedroom. She could feel the muscles in his back moving as he set her down. When she let go her hands ran down his arms, brushing against his olive skin. She saw him smile as he sat down beside her. "Hey that tickled !" He said through short laughs that sounded almost like light coughs. Aeryn did it again but this time on his abdomen, making the boy laugh continuously. "So we are gonna play that game huh ?" Namjoon said while he sat up and began tickling Aeryn everywhere causing her to laugh in-between begging him to stop. "Joonie stop pleasee, Joonie !!" For a second he stopped and Aeryn opened her eyes slowly. When she had opened her eyes fully she saw Namjoon staring down at her. "You look so pretty when you laugh. Oh and by the way thanks for the cute nickname, but only you can use it. Deal ?" Namjoon said with his boxy smile. "Deal."

The pair finally settled down and decided it was probably a good time to go to sleep. Namjoon layed across the bed like a starfish and beckoned Aeryn to lie down. She layed her head in the crook of his outstretched arm and wrapped her arm around his waist, that was bulging with muscle. As her eyes fluttered shut she felt Namjoon place a feather kiss on her head. "I love you." Namjoon waited for a response but Aeryn was already swimming in her dreams.
