Venue: South Central Hospital

Time: 9.15 p.m.

[SEON'S POV]

I finally got myself off that damn outfit I was wearing all day and had a nice long bath in the hospital room's shower although it was quite small. I didn't complain; all I needed was to stand under that luke warm water for hours and hours to wash away the pain and the hard truth called reality.

My mum had disappeared to somewhere again, giving me and Tae space to be alone; which I appreciated of her a lot. As I wasn't much of a 'dress or skirts' type person, I preferred jeans over everything although I wore short skirts at some occasions. As I stepped out of the bathroom wearing a plain turquoise crop top and jeans with my half-dried hair sticking to my face, I saw Taehyung sitting upright on his bed.

I was glad that he had recovered now; I was so worried about him. Thankfully the doctor had calmed my senses saying that he will eventually get better once he took those pills daily which were now lined in tiny bottles near the bed-stand. I sighed and shut the bathroom door, switching off its lights.

The room was lightened only by the dim amber light at the far corner and just before I could ask why, a deep voice echoed all over the room.

'You're so beautiful'

I turned around to see Taehyung, his brown eyes fixed on me while his face reflected pure love and something else that I couldn't comprehend.

'Tae...you should stop staring at me and go to sleep; it's almost 9.30'

He looked at his phone for a sec and his lips turned into a pout. 'It's still 9.15 and how can I fall asleep when you're looking so gorgeous right now? I want to stare at you all night'

'Aishh...you-' I let out a laugh. 'I'm just wearing a plain turquoise crop top. What's so pretty about it?'

'Anything you wear will be pretty on you Lee' he spoke softly, his dark brown orbs intensely locking over mine.

It wasn't the first time he had said that, but each time he does, it makes my heart pound harder and for no apparent reason, I bit my lip.

He just said I was beautiful...what's the big deal?

But my heart and mind responded overly to his every word and action.

I stepped forward and sat on the edge of the bed. 'You shouldn't say things like that Tae; you're making me melt'

He shifted closer that it only left a tiny distance between us.

'I'm going to tell that to you everyday cuz you are and you deserve to hear it'

My cheeks flushed red. I could almost feel my soul fading away at his gaze and how he spoke in his deep voice.

He should stop doing this to me...I can't handle it.

'Tae, you should really sleep now' I cut in. 'The doctor said all you needed was rest'

He didn't break his eye contact and moved towards me in a second and the tiny distance between us disappeared. His eyes hovering over me, our faces inches away.

'All I need now is you'

My eyes went wide as heat rose to my cheeks, almost burning.

'Tae I-'
