CHAPTER XIII | UNRAVEL ME
————————————————————"Ah, I don't want to leave," Jimin complains, crossing his arms over his chest as Yoongi pulls his tunic over his head, dusting out the sand in his hair before he walks over to Jimin who's half dressed, stubbornly standing in front of the sea.
"We have to go back," Yoongi says, placing his hand on Jimin's bare waist.
"Why can't we stay here? We should just sail away," Jimin hums, closing his eyes and listening to the sound of the waves crashing.
"I took you here to spend the day with you because I'll be leaving soon," Yoongi whispers, wrapping his arms around Jimin from behind and putting his chin on his shoulder.
"Leaving?"
"The battle," Yoongi says
At that moment Jimin's insecurities and fear of Yoongi not returning comes back for another bite and so he turns to Yoongi, "Is everything going to be okay, really? You'll come back safe?" He asks, his arms looping around the knight's neck.
He has that serious look that still has his trademark warm eyes, "So long as you're by my side, sweet angel, the rest of the world can go fuck themselves, even if I'm gone I'll be with you," Yoongi says.
And that's just what Jimin needed to hear, that he's his for now and into the future... that there will be a future... one he can survive.
"Yoongi, hold on," Jimin says before he runs over to his cloak, grabbing something and coming back with something in his hand.
"Take this in my favour when you leave," Jimin says, opening his hand to reveal a beautiful golden brooch in his palm, his initials and the coat of arms of the kingdom on it.
"So you can promise you'll return it when you come back."
Jimin knows Yoongi could end up coming back in pieces. He just wants the assurance that he will be back.
"I promise," Yoongi smiles, pulling Jimin to his chest. Jimin attaches the brooch to Yoongi's shirt. Jimin pulls him by his tunic, locking their lips because this beach is the only place they could be so close together for so long. They've never been this close for this long.
Yoongi lifts Jimin off of his feet and brings him to finish getting ready, the Prince giggling loudly as Yoongi sets him on the blanket. The Prince slips on his tunic and then his cloak, smiling at the thought of Yoongi having a token of his but it's strained because imagining the knight going off to battle is scary.
"Is namjoon going to the battle too?" Jimin asks once he's all dressed, feeding the horses some oats and carrots before they start their dreaded journey back to the castle.
