[ok but on a serious note, what is my obsession with fire istg-]
[00:00]
a precious soul flew away from his fingertips tonight.
* * *
[21:36]
the scent of the lit candles surrounded you in a fury of peace to which the lights were dimmed only with precision and perfectly in the bedroom.
hyunjin was on his way home right at this moment and there was no way you could wait to see the precious smile along with the signature eye crescents you know he'd show when he walks in.
one thousand and ninety-five days with him and even those days and nights with him weren't enough for the two of you.
you had gotten all pretty and dressed up for him, your hair styled so loosely and curled with the scent of his favourite perfume radiating from your body.
tonight was an extremely special night and you knew it would be a night he'd remember forever.
you hear knocks from the front door and you take light footsteps towards it, lashes fluttering wisp-fully before your eyes could see the tall figure in front of you.
it's hyunjin, but his eyes are pink and puffy, clear liquid surrounding his eyes as if he was wiping them.
time begins to slow itself down in front of you and you watch as your boyfriend pushes past your form, ignoring your presence and hurries towards your shared bedroom.
when you turn to face in the direction which he runs off to, it's baffling to see that smoke clouded the air around you, bright fiery orange hazes filling your vision as the air in the atmosphere grew warming with each step you took.
but none of the gas affects you.
you could make out hyunjin's shouting voice, loudly crying out in pure panic when you enter.
your boyfriend was on his knees in the middle of red chaos, bent over as he held something in his arms.
or someone.
before you know what you're doing, your hand is placed on his shoulder, attempting to comfort him all the while confusion irritates you.
that's when your eyes meet your very own closed eyes and the smoke that smears your cheeks along with the smell of burning flesh coming from a side of your face.
burn marks starting from your foot ends when it reaches your abdomen.
you back away and hold a hand over your mouth in shock, too much surprise that you're stumbling over your own two feet.
tears roll down your face without control and there was absolutely nothing you could do about the situation before you.
everything was still in slow motion when hyunjin caresses your face, weeping over your existing body, unconscious and all.
the whole room was up in flames, leaving no way for him to exit if he tried.
you hold your breath and time stops all alone, the picture pauses in front of you but you could still hear the utter pounding of hyunjin's heart beating for you.
when you begin to pant again, that's when everything returns back to current time and a few people enter the mess of a room, dressed protectively as they attempt to drag out your boyfriend.
he continues to sob and scream, yelling out in pure disgust and hate as he tried so desperately to stay with your restless body.
"stop it, hyunjin! it's no use, i won't wake up!"
you wanted to shout at him, shake him and tell him to wake up from his dream because this was reality and you couldn't watch as sparks dangle from his sleeves.
the firefighters successfully retrieve him with heavy hearts, feeling a whole lot of pity for the guy.
you take one last good look at your body before noticing a tiny detail decorating your now burnt hand.
where there had been nothing before, a tiny diamond ring is place on your finger, barely visible if someone hadn't tried to notice.
but it wasn't the ring you had planned to propose with.
hyunjin was going to ask you to marry him tonight, too, but then chaos erupted.
you couldn't stop the tears from overflowing and your chest ached so bad it was such torture.
then you turn directly around, facing a burning wooden vanity mirror and catch your reflection, skin burnt and all.
a hand reaches up to be placed over your heartbeat but there was nothing, not even a single badump-
and in the most simplest way, you disappear into a burst of flames and it takes your place.
