If I let go, would you hold on? Would we fly?

Is it safer if we just say that we tried?

Are we laughing at the danger?

Are we dancing after death, you and I?

Seoul, Sungkyunkwan University, 3rd Floor, 7:34 pm, fall from stairs

Jeon Jungkook: 21 years old

Yoongi looked at his watch and if he was alive, he was totally sure that his heart would've stopped beating.

7:33 pm.

There was a minute left, no - probably only seconds!

"Hyung, why are you walking so slo-?"

Jungkook's question got cut off in the middle, because he was right at the stairs when he turned around to talk to Yoongi, but he didn't place his left foot at a good spot and he slipped.

Yoongi rushed towards Jungkook, but it was already too late, because the boy was literally flying down already and there were so many stairs, the fall was going to be deadly, without a doubt.

The reaper didn't think, he just acted on impulse and the instinct to protect, to keep Jungkook safe. So as the boy was flying down, Yoongi followed him, but with a little addition - his black wings.

Even though the reaper did look like a human and he surely was one before he died, he was now a Grim Reaper, an Angel of Death, but an angel nonetheless and he did have wings, but they were more of a punishment than anything - they were big and weighed a lot, they were a symbol of his sins and Yoongi hated them, that's why he always kept them hidden, but now he spread them and they tore the clothes on his back, as they finally revealed themselves, but they gave him the chance to catch up to Jungkook and catch him.

The boy had closed his eyes, he was waiting for the fall to happen, but Yoongi wrapped his arms and wings around Jungkook's body, he tried to create some sort of a shield, which would protect the boy and his plan was actually successful.

They did fall, badly and it probably hurt, but Yoongi couldn't feel any pain. There were black feathers in the air and Jungkook slowly pried his eyelids open.

The reaper was still holding onto the boy and he was in the middle of inspecting Jungkook for any injuries and he forgot about everything else, he forgot about his wings... and making them disappear did take some time, but it was already too late anyway, but Jungkook had already seen them and he was staring at them with wide eyes.

"Are you hurt? Jungkook? Answer me, please! Are you hurt anywhere?!"

The boy did not reply and Yoongi was seriously starting to get worried, he was pretty sure that his wings managed to shield Jungkook just in time and yet... why wasn't he saying anything?

Jungkook just kept staring at the marvelous wings on Yoongi's back and he couldn't even properly comprehend the fact that he could've died just now, all he could do was gaze at the wings until he ultimately reached out and touched them.

The reaper got surprised due to the action, nobody had ever touched his wings before, no human had actually seen them, only a few other reapers and of course they never initiated any contact.

"So beautiful... Hyung... your wings are gorgeous..."

Jungkook wished he could take a picture, he wished he could see those stunning wings every single day, but something told him that Yoongi didn't fancy them much, because he hid them until now and it looked like he felt uncomfortable now that he had revealed them.
