strawberries and cigarettes always taste like you

-

hyunjin sat on the balcony, staring at the stars in the nighttime sky as the wind ran its fingers through his hair.

if it were even a week ago, he would have been sitting there with someone next to him, both of them probably feeding each other strawberries and laughing at whatever stories they told the other.

but no, he was alone because that's how fate works. fate was determined to destroy the bond between even two of the strongest friends, partners, boyfriends, fiancées. fate was determined to destroy the bond of hwang hyunjin and lee felix, the princes and future kings of the nivaria and ronem kingdoms respectively. fate tore them apart from each other, with no chance to even say goodbye.

hyunjin flicked the cigarette in his hand before bringing it up to take a puff, watching how the smoke released into the slightly cold air in wafts, spiraling up before it disappeared and all that was left behind was the smell. he could basically hear felix's scolding, telling him to put down the "godforsaken cancer stick" and instead eat more strawberries or have a popsicle. something to stop the craving.

yet hyunjin would never hear his voice again and it was all his fault.

it was all hyunjin's fault.

or so the male thought. he continuously blamed himself for not properly increasing the guards around the nivarian castle leading to the ambush by rebels.

that's why his beloved was dead.
