Seokjin wandered off in the cold, dark night sky with Namjoon on his back. He felt worn out but he knew that if he stopped flying, both he and the dark entity would die by falling to their deaths in the middle of nowhere.

If he stopped at the hospital, he would run the chance of them taking Namjoon away from him. He didn't trust doctors at all. Namjoon was the only doctor he's ever trusted.

The man's wings began to weigh on him, soon his eyes sparkled and got heavier. He was tired but his mind was set on saving Namjoon and nothing could stop him from getting the doctor to safety.

"I'll never forgive myself if you die because of me, Dr. Kim." His voice was low, but he knew that Namjoon couldn't hear him so what was the point? He started to talk normally
to let everything out. He needed to speak what was on his mind or he would go crazy.

"Joowon was right, I'm nothing. I'm absolutely worthless without you. But I would have preferred to be killed by him before you showed up, that way your life wouldn't be in danger in the first place." He saw so many lights in the city as he soared across the sky.

He continued to talk, not caring if his voice was noticeable or not.

"You risked your life for me. I sometimes wish you wouldn't have even met me. Knowing you was the best and worst thing that's ever happened to me. You saved me, showed me what true friendship and love is." The man gripped onto Namjoon tighter to prevent him from falling, but to also embrace him.

"But you also taught me what pain really is. I'm in pain right now because of you. Because I fear losing you." There were no tears left for Seokjin to cry, all that was left in his heart and soul right now was Namjoon.

He needed to think of a way to save him and he was running out of time. Each turn he would make would lead him to a dead end and without any options of where to head to next because he got lost on the way.

In between all of the frustration and confusion, Seokjin found a hospital a few miles away thanks to a sign he was able to read in the highway. His shoulders were getting heavy, meaning he was ready to give out any minute. With the very last bit of energy he had in him, the man rushed towards the entrance of the hospital and saw the terrified looks on everyone's face.

"Save him." He carried Namjoon and placed him on a hospital bed that the paramedics immediately brought out as soon as they saw the two men enter the hospital with blood all over their bodies, especially their face and mouth.

Seokjin collapsed on the floor seconds after they attended to Namjoon. The last thing he remembered was carrying Namjoon in his weakened arms and successfully handing him over to the paramedics.

Despite the immense amount of pain in and out of his body, Seokjin smiled before he fell to the floor, not worried if he would live or die because he knew that Namjoon was going to live on and be safe now.

~~~

Seokjin got up, finding himself within a very dark and beautiful forest. The forest Namjoon once drove through the first time they went out for a drive together. He remembered the place being just as beautiful as he saw it from Namjoon's car window but now it gave the man nothing but sorrow to see it knowing Namjoon would no longer be with him.

He could only be happy for the young doctor to know that he was okay. He envisioned the man living on with the rest of his life completely normal. His body was most likely human again, so he could go back to eating regularly without getting tired or poisoned.

And he could eventually figure out a way to forget about Namjoon in order to live within the dark forest.

But to forget the doctor that made his life happy was a mission impossible for Seokjin. The vampire couldn't get the image of Namjoon out of his head.

His hands... The hands that used to caress his soft skin.

His voice... The voice which used to calm him down.

His body... The way he used to hold onto his body the nights they would have filled with passion, or just cuddling together without a care in the world.

His kindness... The amount of affection Seokjin would never receive for the rest of his miserable life.

"I don't belong here. Not without you, Dr. Kim." The vampire knew it was too late to return. He didn't have the option to live or die in the first place, but Namjoon meant so much to him. Only now was he realizing that he would never see him ever again, not even in his thoughts or in his visions to know how he was, If he lived, if he died. Nothing.

Seokjin would never be able to see him ever again.

"No..." He held his head.

"Namjoon, I need to see you. One last time, I need to say goodbye- I need you." He felt vulnerable for the very first time in his life.

There was no way for Seokjin to ever see Namjoon, he was dead. He couldn't even find his way out of the place he was in.

The place no longer seemed beautiful to him with Namjoon on his mind. The forest he once loved was giving him so many setbacks. Memories which were killing him on the inside.

"I have to go back." He ran around the forest but tripped over a large tree branch, blocking his pathway, and fell in another unknown place, deep into the dark forest.

Now he really had no way of escaping. He felt something spark in his body, so he held his chest and felt his heart beat. How could it be if he was dead? Seokjin was confused.

The vampire couldn't get up. His leg was trapped within one of the tree branches. From far away he saw werewolves were approaching him, sniffing around. He was bleeding out of his ankle which had gotten injured from the fall.

He had no way of leaving and his wings weren't existent. He couldn't fly anymore. Namjoon was the only source of energy Seokjin had. And now that he was left without him, the man was useless, powerless, and his life to him was meaningless.

If he died, he would just end up in the same place so he didn't attempt to save himself. He
sat there, stuck in between all of the branches, leaves and dirt, waiting for the wolves to come and kill him.

"I hope you find me appetizing." His voice was almost gone, he had no voice left from screaming Namjoon's name out of desperation in finding him earlier.

When the man took a closer look, he saw that the wolfpack wasn't traveling alone. Behind them was a large shadow.

Too big to be a wolf, too small to be a potential threat. But the vampire didn't mind if it was a threat to him or not, at this point he was ready to accept the cruel fate that was awaiting him.

The wolves one by one ran towards him, Seokjin was prepared for the worst but they avoided him instead as if they were running away from something. That something being the shadow that was behind them. That shadow was the only thing that was currently heading towards the vampire.

Seokjin's eyes sparkled brightly as he leaned forward to get a closer look of what the thing was. The vampire patiently waited for whatever the unknown source was.

Never in his life was he more prepared for death than now, but what he wasn't prepared for was something unexpected.

Or someone. An unexpected visitor was approaching him. The figure had no intentions in keeping its distance from the vampire, and neither did he. Seokjin didn't want to avoid it because now he was confused by it. He did not know what it could be, but as the strange, dark shadow made its appearance to him, the vampire knew exactly who and what it was.

Seokjin raised himself up from the ground with the help of the figure who took the tree branch and lifted it off of the vampire, freeing him.

He stared into the shadow's eyes in disbelief. But he only stared as he was almost sure this was another one of his visions. The shadow was full of life, despite being dead.

It was him.

It was the person who became Seokjin's first and only friend.

Who became Seokjin's first and last love.

That person was no longer an "it" to the vampire, but a "he" and he goes by the name of...

"Namjoon." Seokjin wasn't just imaging things anymore, Namjoon was really with him.

The man was standing in his presence, right by his side without saying a word. Just smiling at him and showing off his dimples. The smile Seokjin swore he was never going to see again.

Namjoon stood there with his arms opened, waiting to see what the vampire would do.

He was just as Seokjin remembered: Tall, his hair was light brown, and his eyes were dark brown. He wasn't just Kim Namjoon, he was more than that.

He was Doctor Kim. The doctor Seokjin fell in love with.

Neither one of the men said a word, their bodies spoke for them and their bodies desired to be embraced against each other. Seokjin ran towards the man, for the first time in his life he actually wanted to be hugged. Feeling him again, the scent of his cologne, the soft touch of his body gave Seokjin strength and a desire for life again.

"You didn't think I would let you die alone, did you? A doctor is nothing without his patient." Namjoon spoke, his soft yet deep voice was becoming Seokjin's medicine to heal his weak body.

The vampire held onto Namjoon like there was no tomorrow.

He could hear his heart beat. The doctor was still a vampire, but his heart stayed the same. He wasn't cold towards Seokjin.

"I haven't shed a tear in over a decade. You're the first man to ever make me cry... I'll be damned."
