Forbidden forest • Yoonmin •

Глава шестая

At home, Yoongi couldn't sleep well as his thoughts were all occupied by that creature and how bad of him was to leave. He began to genuinely worry that Jimin was mad at him and wouldn't meet him anymore. He managed to get out of unnecessary interrogations by telling his grandparents that he fell asleep in the forest, and that's why he came late. He barely lasted through the morning, idling and thinking. In the end he decided to leave earlier, because waiting at the house or in the forest made no difference, right?

While walking he sped up his pace, which turned into a jog, until he was full on running. The only thoughts circling in his head was 'I have to apologize'. He arrived at their place pretty quickly and was panting heavily. It was useless coming here so early, but his worries took the best of him. Still panting, he took out his phone to check the time. 13:43. That's roughly an hour and twenty minutes until their meeting time. Yoongi sighed and sat down in a soft looking patch of grass.

His heartbeat from the sudden running was calming down, and he was becoming more absorbed in the soothing forest atmosphere. Fresh pine and daisy scent filling his nostrils. Yoongi took a deep breath once more, then heard faint tinkling. Which soon, was followed by a soft thud on his back.

He abruptly turned around, and gasped at the sight of the creature he wanted to apologize to all morning.

"Jimin!" He whisper-cried. The miniature boy laid on his back, one wing slightly bent and groaning. Yoongi's heart dropped, and he felt the need to hug him tightly and protect from all the bad things in the world.
"Jimin, I-I'm so sorry.." his voice cracked, emotions suddenly all pouring out, "I didn't mean to leave so rudely, I suddenly became scared and ran away. I realize that it was a terrible thing to do I-" he shut up when he felt a tiny hand on his mouth, which was the fairy telling him to calm down.

"It's okay, Yoongi. It was partially my fault too, I'm sorry." The younger blonde smiled softly at him.
"It wasn't though, I'm the one to blame," Yoongi transitioned to a whisper, "forgive me, Jimin, I won't run away again."
"I forgave you a long time ago, silly" he laughed, which sent warmth to Yoongi's cheeks, "you're overreacting,"
Yoongi sighed and fell to lie down on his back, covering his face with his hands. "You don't even know how much I worried about that. Jimin, I will sue you. You've made me feel more emotions over these past few days, than I've felt in the 22 years of my existence," he smiled, feeling much lighter, "you're right though, I've lost all my swag. Where this the cool rapper Min Yoongi go and what did you do to him?"

Jimin laughed and hit him playfully, "Look at you getting all flustered," Yoongi managed to compose himself, but wanted to get revenge. He sat up and smirked at the younger.
"Also, I want to answer your question from yesterday before I rudely left you," he made a dramatic pause, enjoying the confused look Jimin was giving him, "I do think that you're gorgeous."

The reaction he got from the fairy was worth all the time spent worrying. Yoongi grinned at the younger, watching him turn redder than the wild strawberries and stutter awkwardly,
"Well, I, uh, I-I th- yea, uhh.. th-thanks.." Jimin managed to let out, avoiding Yoongi's eyes at all costs. "So are you," he muttered and put his face in his hands, never being so embarrassed. Though it was the good type of embarrassment that made his heart flutter.
"I know" was the older's smug reply before he got hit again.

They lied for a while in silence, content in each other's presence. Whispering of the trees and rustling of the grass calmed the both of them, almost sending Jimin into a slumber. Until Yoongi spoke up, that is.
"So, you winged little thing, want to walk around a bit? I think my foot fell asleep and I need to walk it out," Yoongi said and immediately cringed at his use of words. Jimin, however, found it hilarious.

"Sure, bean stalk. I would love to join your walk! Except I, the winged little thing, will fly next to you as it's easier. Please don't mind me," trying his hardest not to laugh he played along Yoongi's request.
"Wait, It was bad phrasing. I'm sorry Jimin." He awkwardly glanced at him, hoping the latter didn't find it too offensive.
"Nah, it's cool, you are right after all, I am technically a winged little thing." Jimin replied then burst out laughing, not holding it in anymore.

"Ah! I said I'm sorry ok?" Yoongi whined, though seeing Jimin laugh his heart out he soon joined in as well.
"Fairy," Jimin murmured with a smile, after they've both calmed down.
"What?" The confusion in the older's eyes almost made Jimin laugh again.
"I am a fairy."
Yoongi made a 'o' with his mouth, showing that he understood. The sudden confession made him extremely happy, as it meant that the younger trusted him now. Enough to tell him who he is.

Jimin didn't regret doing that one bit. He felt comfortable around Yoongi, and hoped that he felt the same. A few days is a small time frame, yet it was more than enough to become close. And that is what they both wanted to be - closer.
