unedited. they walked down the street from school together, where dried leaves were scattered on the ground, some flew away, blown away by the wind.
"hey, i think you'd do great in our rugby team." taehyung pats jeongguk back. since taehyung wasn't really close to jeongguk, he thought that he should kick in more conversations with him.
"i'll pass," jeongguk chuckles. jeongguk actually had a serious injury on his shoulder and he was afraid that it would worsen if he joined the rugby team, even though he was interested.
"yeah taehyung, he's good in my soccer team," hoseok swung his arm around jeongguk and rests it on his shoulder. "back off."
taehyung and jeongguk laughed and fell into silence.
"well, see you guys soon." taehyung had to part ways as he was going down in a different route. he continued walking back home alone, humming a tune that he made up.
at the sight of an empty playground, he halted. he made his way to the playground where his feet would sink in the dry sand and the lanterns flickered. he grabs the chain of the swing and sat down, pushing himself slightly forward and back, still keeping his feet on the ground.
he heard a faint sob from the back of his ears as he turns around to find a male who sat alone on the seasaw where he almost touched the ground since the seat at the end of the seasaw was empty.
and so taehyung sits on it.
it caught the male's attention when he realised he was lifted. he had just emptied five cans of beer and was totally drained so he didn't knew who sat with him at seasaw and he didn't care.
"jeongguk?" the male suddenly called out, mistaken taehyung as jeongguk. "is that you?"
"uh..." taehyung hesitates, still in confusion.
taehyung was ever more confused when the stranger suddenly embraces him. he could smell the scent of alcohol and felt his cold breath against his neck.
"don't leave me, jeongguk..."
"i'm not jeongguk—"
his eyes widens when he felt his lips pressed against the stranger. he froze at the small seat and held on to his shoulder before in falters in surrender.
"i, jimin, will never leave you..."
"can you promise me that you won't leave me too?"
i would. taehyung said in his mind.
