Soulmates

~8

"It probably would have been better if we'd stayed at the park for a while, that way we wouldn't be sat in my room for ages with nothing to do." Yoongi was sat at my desk, flicking through scraps of paper, and I sat on the edge of my bed. "I like it here, but I'll go wherever you want me to. By the way, did you draw all of these?" He pointed to a few doodles I had made when I was supposedly doing schoolwork. "Uhh yeah, I get really bored sometimes" I stood and picked up the papers, crumpling them up and throwing them in the bin. "Why'd your do that? They were really good!" He pouted and grabbed the pen from my desk and opened the lid, and then smirked as he brought the tip to his skin.

I felt the now-familiar tingling and rolled up my sleeve, watching ink dance around my arm and form a shape that I recognised as a cat, but it wasn't the best drawing I'd ever seen. "Stop, that tickles!" I stood and attempted to get the pen out from his hand, but he darted out of the chair and away from my grasp. I glared at him and prepared to run at him again, but I knew he'd be ready for it again. I ran around the chair and trapped him in the corner, now I was the one smirking, thinking I had the upper hand. I lunged forward and he shot to the side, catching my side so I fell on top of him.

My face was inches from his, I was looking into his eyes, seeming to get lost in the intensity of the moment. Incidentally my eyes flickered to his lips for a split second, making Yoongi noticeably uncomfortable. He rolled to the side and away from me, then quickly stood up. I followed suit and stood as well, watching Yoongi's eyes dart all over the room and his hand rubbing the back of his neck. "I'm sorry, I didn't mean..." I noticed the shift in atmosphere, what used to be a playful and almost romantic mood had now gone to uncomfortable and awkward.

To make matters worse I heard the door slam downstairs, I knew who it was, my mum was back. "Maybe we should get out of here" I whispered, not wanting to be in the house for my parent's big fight. I could hear their voices now, getting louder every second. "Let's Go, I hope You're not afraid of heights!" I opened my window and began to climb out of it, "what are you doing? Is that safe?" He was a bit worried and I could tell, but I'd do anything to get out of this house and it's not like I haven't done it before. "It's fine, I've done it a million times" I assured him and then lowered myself out of my window and as close to the ground as I could, and then dropped to the ground. Yoongi followed quickly after and we ran towards the park.
