give it away.❞

ACKNOWLEDGING a simple nod towards him, we both walked out of the door yet at separate times with a different tale, our desperate hearts bearing a beat of their own. The chilly night air crawled through my exposed skin making me shiver; ignoring the look of concern sent my I stepped inside the warm car in the passenger seat making his eyes easily look towards mine.

Shrugging my shoulders in a nonchalant manner, I continue to strap my seat belt, whilst the man roared the engine, he managed to put on the heater in the car as I turn to find him staring deep down at me through his dark lashes.

An illuminating light shinned across his lids to his lips, drowning me against his dark gaze—urging me to move uncomfortably.

      “You look beautiful, Sofia you always do,”he says, and I felt my heart beating heavily to an unknown tune of misery and love, my stomach curling with anticipation.

“We should leave,” I breathed out, hotly cheeks ablaze feeling my breath hitch making me shallow the hard lump forming in my throat.

A faint smile spread across at the corner of his lips, had my heart flutter, feeling him move his hand towards my face tugging the loose hair gently behind my ear, his fingers brushes against my cold cheeks sending chills to race down my spine. Staring down, he pulled away, neither of us said another word as turing he finally roared the car to life; he drove through the deserted night roads in silence with his jaw clenched and a dark look spreading upon his handsomely features.

I know he's hurt, and I know that I am the reason but we both knew that happily ever-afters were just in fairytales and this was real life. And real life is reality, and reality is harsh.

Averting my gaze from him, glancing upwards at the sky, the stars continued to shine brightly it's sparkle floating across the deserted roads, the trees ran by us like a blur, as if they were chasing after the miseries of life; when in fact the life was chasing after them.

Soon the car came to a halt in front of an unfamiliar mansion pulling the lock of the door, I push the door open stepping out, I waited for him nervousness billed inside me I felt like I don't belong here.

“It's alright don't think too much, I am right here.",says Taehyung, his voice composed, standing beside me making me glance up at him as I see him smile faintly down at me.

How can I not when he is the one who makes me nervous?

I can do this, I thought as walking further I felt his hand slid down around my bare back making me feel it's warmth giving a soothing feeling of it's own a feeling to be held by a beloved, as sighing at the feel of his touch I walked with my head held high.
