BEHIND THE CAMERA || KTH

Chapter 17

Clyde showed me a few pictures of beautiful lakes, gardens and wildlife. I was really impressed by his photography skills.

"These are very-y-y niche." I said in my drunken voice, which mostly sounded like a baby. I didn't realise that I said 'nice' and 'niche'. "You like them?"Clyde asked proudly. "Yesh." I replied and smiled like a kid. He chuckled and gave me a smirk.

"I see you really like reading 'And Then There Were None'". I said referring to the book in his hands that day in the cafeteria, the same book I saw with the boy in the library the other day. I spent my whole afternoon in the library last Tuesday to find this book. I remembered the cover of the book and recognised it the time I laid my eyes on it but, it still took me at least 3 hours to find it in one of the many shelves of the library.

"Huh?" Clyde said and gave me a confused look. "How do you know?" he continued. "I saw it in your hands at the cafeteria a few days ago." I stated and smiled like an idiot. Although, I was drunk myself but I could still see that Clyde was gonna pass out soon.

He opened his mouth to say something but a deep, husky voice prevented him from saying it. "Y/N. Come here." Taehyung commanded boldly. "Oh, look! It's the hot prinche." I said, again pronouncing 'ce' as 'che'. I saw Taehyung standing firmly with his hands inside the pockets of his jeans and a black leather jacket for preventing the unseasonable cold.

I grinned strangely and walked towards him like a lovesick puppy. Clyde had a scowl on his face and immediately got up from his seat. He stood up trying his best to walk properly but unfortunately, stubbing his toe by the corner of the counter table.

"Argh!" Clyde let out a few profanities and left the kitchen. "Oops. Hehe."I giggled. "Y/N, you're so drunk. Come, let's go home now." Taehyung said and grabbed my wrist.

"Noooo! I wanna have more fun!"I whined and pouted. "You've had enough fun for today. You're way too drunk and need some rest."he replied sternly. "You have no power over me!" I practically screamed and folded my arms angrily.

Taehyung suddenly pushed me towards the counter and leaned forward, keeping both of his arms beside my waist. "You sure about that?"he asked and raised a brow. I gulped nervously, turning to a shade of light pink and looked down at my fingers, which seemed to be very interesting all of a sudden.

Taehyung leaned forward a bit more causing me to finally look up at him. He stared at me more intensely and my body felt numb. My vision started getting blurry and I blinked a few times.

"Y/N?"Jungkook yelled from behind and I mean, he actually yelled. Taehyung quickly turned around and stood a few metres away, leaving me standing in the same position.

I looked up and screamed delightedly, "Kookie!!" and went into his big muscly arms, inhaling a faint scent of alcohol and a lady's perfume. Jungkook smiled at me and tightly hugged me back.

"Wanna get some drinks?"he asked blissfully. I could tell that he was drunk judging by the way he was talking and of course that smell. I nodded and interlocked my arm with his. We both proceeded to leave the kitchen but Taehyung stopped us by saying, "No. She has to go home now. You should also leave before you get more drunk."

This caused the both of us to turn around. Me and Jungkook stared at each other with a serious face, and a few seconds later, we let out a fit of laughter.

"Harry thinks he can stop us!"I laughed hysterically referring Taehyung as Harry from the Harry Potter books. Jungkook snorted and laughed even harder. "Are you insane? He's not Harry Potter. He is Ron Weasley." Jungkook managed to say in between his laughs.

"No! He doesn't have freckles or red hair!"
"He also doesn't have a scar on his forehead."
"He does."
"Are you blind? He is wearing a hand-me-down robe."

We continued to bicker not realising that Taehyung was still standing and listening to all of this rubbish. "You think this is funny, don't you?"Taehyung said a bit angrily but didn't raise his voice. We both immediately shut our mouths trying to suppress the laughter that was bubbling in our throats.

"I'm neither Harry, nor Ron or any other fictional character. I'm a real human being, whose name is Taehyung and who is gonna take you both home now." Taehyung said firmly.

"Oi!" someone shouted from behind and all three of us looked at a drunk Jimin holding hands with an obviously drunk Rachael and Cole who was trying to keep them steady.

"Yo Jungkook." Jimin said and wiggled his eyebrows flirtatiously. Jungkook responded to this weird action by giving a stupid smirk. "Jungkook, I want you to bite your nose." Jimin demanded teasingly and Jungkook being Jungkook, obeyed.

He immediately started rolling on the kitchen floor and screamed, "IT'S GETTING AWAY! IT'S GETTING AWAY!". It caused all of us to laugh very hard except Taehyung who simply rolled his eyes, obviously getting tired of all of us.

Jimin bent down on the floor and grabbed Jungkook and the next thing we knew was that the both of them ran out of the kitchen. "These fools." Taehyung said massaging his temples. "At least, they gave us a good laugh." Rachael stated as a matter of fact and continued to giggle, earning an exasperated sigh from Taehyung.

"We should all go home now. Taehyung, you can take Jungkook and Y/N with you and I will take Jimin and Rachael." Cole said and Taehyung nodded. A few seconds later we heard a few screams and we left the kitchen.

We saw Jungkook and Jimin on the roof dancing really crazily. "Oh my god. They're gonna fall!" Rachael said worriedly.

"I AM THE KING."Jungkook and Jimin both yelled from the top. "No, I am." Jungkook screamed. "No, I am." Jimin screamed too and then they started hitting each other playfully but after a solid one minute both of them passed out on the roof, rolled off and landed in the pool with a big SPLASH.

I covered my eyes not wanting to see the sight of my friends drowning and hid my face in Taehyung's chest which caused him to move a little uneasily but then held my face in his big hands and turned me around only to see no sign of Jungkook and Jimin.

"No way." I cried and hugged Taehyung back but this time he didn't do anything and stood still. After a few seconds I built some courage and turned around. Still no sign of them. I sighed.

Suddenly both of them jumped out screamed, "I AM ARIEL!" and then they started laughing. "Why do you always take my name?" Jungkook said to Jimin. "Uh huh. It's you who does that." Jimin taunted back.

But I couldn't hear anything else as my surroundings were disappearing and gradually it became pitch black. All I remember before passing out was Taehyung helping me to stand properly by my waist.
