Drowning

Your POV

I plug in my headphones and vibe to all my favourite tunes and bops whilst I tidy up my room. I don't think I've ever seen my room get so bad. It's like a hurricanes ripped right through the middle of it. My conversation with Yoongi keeps replaying in my head as if I've put my memories on repeat instead of the songs. Failing to get the room tidier because of my occupied mind, I decide to leave it for a later date. Time to declutter my mind first. I go to the kitchen instead of the dining room and just have a cereal bar. The winter's a little lighter today. No snow falls and the ice has thinned out. Thank god, I'm not sure how much longer I could take of having to ride through the freezing weather to get to my secondary residence. I take my cloak as usual and walk to the stable.

"How are you doing Ebony?", I ask my horse as I feed her an apple.

She neighs as if she understands what I'm asking.

"Time to go out.", I continue to talk to her. 

Holding her reins, I ride her out and get up on to her, "Go on girl, the usual place."

Ebony's now so used to taking me to the secondary residence that if I tell her to go there, she'll be able to make the way on her own without me controlling her. She's a trusty horse, ready to protect me whenever and wherever, unlike the people that I have to call family. One time, I was riding on her in the forests, just wandering about when there was sudden shooting. It was an oppositional shooting. Ebony dropped me of in the midst of the trees and left to the shooting. She got wounded on her leg but she lied there and waited till the guards came before she escorted them to me. I'm glad that the pain was only temporary, she's fully recovered now. She goes in to the stable and parks herself there.

"Thank you.", I say and give her another apple.

I don't head in to the mansion.

Ebony neighs behind me, "It's ok girl. I'm not going to the mansion today."

She neighs louder and throttles the leash as if she wants to follow me in to the woods.

"It's fine, you've worked hard. Rest a little, I'll be back soon.", I reassure and then walk in to the trees.

Even if I don't come in to the forests very much, I still know my way around like it's an open book. There's some connection I feel that navigates me around. Before long, I find the lake I'm looking for. I dip in a finger, it's absolutely freezing. Even when I see the chunks of ice in the clear water, I don't hesitate to take of my cloak and jumper. I strip down to mu underwear and a thin dress I've got on. I dive in and there's a few crackles of ice. My white skin goes blue but I don't get out. The refreshing feeling drives me crazy and I lap deeper in to the water.

Yoongi POV

I'm in my secondary residence when I hear the sound of crackling. Usually I wound't be too concerned but noise is loud. I go out and look around, there's no one around. I quickly go back in and get my jacket.

"Is anyone there?", I question but there's no answer.

The crackling happens again.

I hear the noise and rush to the direction it comes from. The opening reveals a lake. I know this was here and there's someone swimming in it. At least it looked like swimming at first sight. It's more like a body floating under the surface of the water. I go closer to inspect I and the gasp.

"Y/N!", I shout.

The body moves and thrashes about. I don't think again before yesterday's conversation plays in my head again. She said she'll kill herself if she can't escape. Why so fast? I told her to wait. I take of my jacket and jump in. Wading, the water freezes me but I fight on and get her out.

"What the hell!", I shout.

"What?",she smirks."

"What the actual hell do you think you're doing?", I stress.

"I don't see why you're so aggravated.", she slides it off like it's nothing.

"You were going to die. You were frozen.", I say.

"Erm... no I wasn't. I was going to come right back out soon enough.", she says.

"No, you're family was going to have to fish out your dead body if I didn't save you."

"No actually, haha Yoongi. You're funny. Thank you but I'm no damsel in distress. I wasn't trying to die.", she shrugs.

She explains everything to me and I sigh, thank god.

"But thank you so much for so selflessly going in to help me.", she says, "You've fallen for me harden than I thought."

I blush, it seems as if I really have. But I can't let myself get distracted because that way I won't be able to kill her myself.
