C'est La Vie | TAEGIMIN

Six

We arrived at the cinema and bought tickets to the movie. Taehyung and Yoongi let me choose where to sit and I went towards the middle of all the rows.

They sat either side of me and I had the popcorn with me for us to share. Yoongi leaned over to me and whispered in my ear, making my heart skip a beat.

"You can hold onto me if you get scared~" He teased.

"Sure." I scoffed and rolled my eyes at him. Yeah right.

He grinned and sat back in his seat as the movie started and the theatre became dark.

I didn't expect the movie to be so nail-bitingly intense and stressful; to my frustration the temptation to take Yoongi up on his offer was so strong.

As the mother clutched her newborn baby close to her behind a light stream of water and the monster lingered right before her, I couldn't help it any longer.

As if on instinct, I tightly gripped Yoongi's upper arm and held my body close to him for support. It wasn't until after the scene passed that I relaxed more, but I still held onto him.

When I tried to glance at him in the corner of my eye it seemed like he was smirking slightly.

I didn't let go of him until the movie ended, and I leaned back into my seat as if it never happened.

"That was probably the most intense movie I've ever watched." Taehyung breathed out, and Yoongi and I nodded in agreement.

"I knew it was worth the watch." Yoongi grinned. "That was awesome."

We made our way out of the cinema and hesitated outside. Taehyung seemed to have something on his mind.

"Do you want us to stay over again tonight?" He asked me. "I just want to be sure you're okay."

"Nah, I'm fine, I promise. You don't need to worry about me so much." I smiled.

"It's my job as your friend, you know that." He smiled.

"I was upset before, but I'm fine now." I assured him. "It's not a big deal."

"Okay, well we'll probably see you tomorrow or something." He nodded.

"Don't be afraid to call when you need us." Yoongi said. "We'll always be here."

"Gotcha." I nodded. "See you guys later."

We went opposite ways to get home and when I finally got there I threw myself onto my bed tiredly.

I still had to make dinner later but for now I was feeling lazy, so I went out to the loungeroom and dropped down onto the couch, turning on the tv to watch something.

I didn't realise I'd fallen asleep until I was woken by the sound of my phone dinging with a text message. I jolted awake and pulled my phone out, my heart sinking when I read the message.

Unknown:
- I hope you had fun today babyboy
- Bc you won't be living like that for much longer
- Once you're mine you'll never escape

I'd almost completely forgetten about them for a while, and I was having a nice day. But of course that couldn't last. It never did.
