I remembered I saw Jimin, smiling at me, and in a way I wasn't too sure how to tell Taehyung that

    'it was Jimin wasn't it?' he asked gently as if he could read my mind.

I nodded as affirmation

    'I think that that tells you enough' Taehyung sighed.

There was a silence, but it was comfortable for some reason. and slowly I started to realize he was right.

I didn't want to make a choice all this time because I didn't want to hurt either one of them, and I didn't want to hurt them because I cared for both of them. but granny was right you cant just keep eating two pies. Eventually you needed to acknowledge you like one just more than the other.

The one you think about first thing when something bad happens

The one you think about first thing in the morning

The one you first kissed when you were challenged to kiss anyone and the one you miss whenever you're not together.

Although Taehyung occupied my mind and heart as well in some form, it had been Jimin for all those things.

Taehyung spoke again

    'look y/n even if it was me, when I realized you were in transition and you needed to choose I.. I just thought about.. you also need to choose between becoming an angel or a demon. and from the moment I met you, you have taken decisions out of care for others or because you made an agreement with someone. You know demons aren't nice people. I changed because of you but if that didn't happen you wouldn't like me I think. Demons don't do love they sleep around, we have no rules, no care for others. and perhaps if you become a demon you might not care anymore too, so I guess that would be different but would you want that?'

I processed what Taehyung just told me,

Everything

And I comprehend that he thought about this in such a selfless way, he actually thought about who I am and what is best for me.

   'I really do love you too though' I said softly as some sort of answer, it wasn't at all a reply on his question but it was just something I needed to say.

Taehyung smiled but it was a somewhat broken smile.

   'and that means so much to me, because of you I have now been able to experience that feeling of love'

    ' and perhaps because I love you I want you to make a decision for yourself but perhaps what I want for you most is to choose the angels because from what I saw you do fit in there well. plus Jimin isn't too bad either I guess, but his perfect righteousness sometimes makes me want to punch him in the face' Taehyung joked and I laughed as well

    'he did skip school and did you see him at the party. this guy has some duality as well' I joked and Taehyung laughed 'fair point, but he never joined your weed adventures did he?' 

I shook my head   'I don't think the angels will allow me to get high all the time?' I pouted sarcastically and Taehyung laughed while slightly pushing me.

   'no I guess you'll need to give that up'

I put my head on his shoulder

   'Thank you Taehyung, for this... Wait how did you even find me?' I then asked confused

    'uhm well I kind of used the mind control on the police so they showed me where I could find like security camera footage of places. I saw you walking out of town and as its just one road I followed it.'

  'Have you ever used that on me?'

He shook his head 'I couldn't use it cause you were a halfy, but yeah I used it on others. the teachers, students, yeji'

   'hmm' I hummed disapprovingly

  'lets go back to Jimin, he must be worried sick as well' Taehyung suggested and I agreed. 

I rang Jimins doorbell and he immediately opened. his eyes wide in shock when he saw me. He pulled me instantly in for a hug. caressing my hair

   'I was so worried about you. I had no idea where you were, are you okay?'   'I am sorry Jimin'

This hug really did feel like home but he suddenly let go stepping back

   'oh' he let out and I followed his eyes to Taehyung who also appeared in front of his door.

Jimin looked agitated at me

  'He found you?'

I nodded

   'uhm thank you' Jimin addressed Taehyung which was so unexpected and so heartwarming that I felt a lump in my throat

   'so you made a decision?' he asked and the tone betrayed his pain;

he thought I came here to saygoodbye. 

   'yes I did...

.....I am considering if I should have one last joint though or do you think the angels will accept that bad habit of mine?

I didn't want to bring it too heavy and also not too cheesy as taehyung was here as well

  'what?' Jimin asked with a shaky voice

   'I have decided to become an angel, and I want to be by your side, always' I clarified

Jimin hugged me tightly and in his enthusiasm he lifted me off the ground making me chuckle.

   'you better take good care of her or ill come back from hell to kick your ass' Taehyung said to Jimin as soon as we let each other go. Jimin smirked at him 'of course I will'

We were standing in front of Jimin's house. I wanted to say goodbye to Gran and Seojoon first but Taehyung indicated that I made my decision so his presence on earth was not required anymore. meaning that he would return back to hell. 

   'so I guess this really is goodbye?' I asked as we looked at each other.
