A Night-Long Lament

visiting

(Your POV) 

(a/n: this one might be long so bear with me lol)

Your eyes slowly flutter open, revealing your head being caressed by Yoongi's chest. You abruptly shoot upwards, waking up Yoongi.

"Y/N?" Yoongi sits up groggily as he blinks in confusion. "What's wrong?" 

"N-Nothing." You fix your hair and grab a warm towel for Yoongi. "Here, place this on your forehead.

He nods and reaches for the towel weakly. As Yoongi continues to press the towel on him, Taehyung walks into the room dressed in a button up shirt and pants. 

"Prince Taehyung, good morning." You bow and walk towards him. "He's been well. I think he needs more time to rest though. Did you guys figure out what's in the dart?" 

His tall demeanor towers over you. 

"No. I'm glad he's doing well. What about you?" Taehyung rubs his necks and looks down at you.

"I'm alright. Still just a bit shocked." 

He sighs. "You've been assigned a guard... but I don't like the idea of someone like that following you around all day, so I volunteered to watch over you for the time being." 

A light blush washes over your face. "Ah, Thank you, but you don't need to take time out of your day to worry--"

"Yuna will be joining us as well if you don't mind." His deep voice counters yours, so you just shut your mouth.

Yuna...

"No worries, I'm glad she's ok too." 

He ushers for you to follow him, and he brings you down the hall to the dining room. 

"Have you figured out what happened?" You ask, running up to catch up with his long strides.

"No, but there's plenty of speculation going around..." He continues to walk and his pivots on one foot to face the doors to the dining room. 

With his abrupt action, you bump into his shoulder. 

He smiles down at you and leads you to your seat. 

"My brothers won't be here, so it'll just be you, me and Yuna." He pulls out a seat for you and Yuna comes in through the doors. 

"Taehyung-Oppa!" She rushes to his side and sits in the middle of you two.

"Yuna, how are you?" He asks, keeping his composure despite having her rubbed up against him.

"I'm quite well." She smiles looks back at you, sneering.

You take a sip of your water and look at Taehyung. "Are there any lessons today?" 

"No, Jimin was going to have another one with both of you, but that got rescheduled for obvious reasons." Taehyung grabs his elegant jacket and quickly puts it on. "I was notified that we have to exit the castle completely. So, in the meantime, we can visit both of your families." 

You stumble back and cover your mouth with the palm of your hand.

"W-We're--" You choke on your words and latch onto a cloth napkin sitting next to you. Making sure no one sees you break down, you run to a nearby hall and lean against a wall. 

Is this a dream? Am I really going to--

Tears stream down your pink cheeks and you silently cry into the napkin. 

Taehyung runs into the room, frantically looking for you. 

"Y/N?" He spots you and hurries to your aid. "Did I say something wrong--"
