Soulmates

~9

We reached the park and I sat down on the bench, gasping for breath, Yoongi didn't seem too out of breath from our run to the park, but I was. "How... how come..... you're.... not....." I gestured something that was supposed to mean 'out of breath.' This only made Yoongi laugh, "I've had practice of running whilst breathing correctly and I don't seem to get short of breath that much anymore." I wondered what kind of 'practice' he was talking about, I'm guessing it wasn't in school PE lessons.

"So... how long do we wait here?" Yoongi broke the awkward silence that was surrounding us like a thick fog. "Don't get me wrong... I love staying here, I've stayed here overnight a few times and I don't mind doing that again. But I don't think you'd like how cold it normally gets" he chuckled lightly and shuffled closer to me on the bench, only a little, but enough for me to notice. "Honestly I think we should spend the night out here, away from my parents who are no doubt screeching at each-other right now. I can go back and get my jumper -and maybe a blanket too!" I was beginning to get a little excited at spending the night under the stars on this bench I had become so familiar with.

We walked back to the house, talking all the way. When we reached the small building I could hear shouts from inside. I looked at Yoongi and shrugged, "wait here, I'll only be a second." I didn't leave him a chance to reply as I climbed up to my window and then inside to my bedroom, since the window was open from earlier. I quickly grabbed a blanket from my bed and two jumpers from my cupboard, just in case.

I threw the blanket down at him and then climbed down myself, smiling since our mission was complete, without getting caught. Unfortunately I spoke too soon. The door swung open and my mum stomped out, her eyes went wide as she saw me, "What are you doing here? Get inside and sort your father out or I'll-" we ran again, it was harder this time, but Yoongi told me when to breathe in and out, making it a little better.

We got back to the bench and he threw the blanket onto the bench, and smirked at me. "Tag, You're it!" He shouted and then ran a little away from me. I stood where I was for a minute whilst my brain comprehended what had happened. As soon I did understand, I ran. I chased Yoongi all over the park, stopping once to have a laughing fit since he started doing a weird dance. I was catching up to him, my hand was inches away from his back. Suddenly my fingertips made contact with his back, I shouted "tag" as we tumbled onto a pile. I got Déjà Vu from earlier but this time Yoongi was on top of me, our faces almost touching again. And this time it was his eyes that went to my lips for a split second, but immediately after Yoongi shook his head and rolled off of me, laying beside me on the grass.

"I think I need to explain, everything."
