•Chapter 33•
"Hope," Yoongi says, pushing his sleeping friend who doesn't wake up.
Yoongi reads the lines over again before looking from the book back to his friend.
"HOPE!" he yells now pushing him harder this time making him bump into Namjoon who was lying next to him. Also, Namjoon is half asleep.
"What is it?!" Namjoon asks, slightly pissed off by his friend who stops him from sleeping at 2 am in the morning.
"Could this help us?" Yoongi asks, showing the younger one something he had found in the book. "It doesn't look like something that could help us, hyung," Namjoon says with a voice full of pity. He does feel bad for his best friend but he doesn't know what to do either.
The oldest of them groans while pulling at his hair out of frustration. It had been a month. A whole damn month since Jimin and the others went to heaven with the angel police.
Yoongi hadn't seen his lover ever since then and he is getting crazy. He can't stay like this. He doesn't want to give Jimin up. He just can't. The angel had his heart so now he feels empty inside. He doesn't even know where Jimin is, what he is doing or even worse.. if the angel was still alive.
The only thing he has is Jimin's book. The book with all the information about angels. It was still at his house after Jimin left. Yoongi's really happy that he forgot it there because it really is the only thing he has from Jimin expect of all the good memories.
He thinks that there must be a way to do something even from here on earth.
J-hope had rolled back to Yoongi and leaned his head on his friend's leg. Yoongi's holding the book a little higher, right above J-hope's head.
"What's this?" J-hope asks, pointing at the name on the cover of the book. Yoongi and Namjoon both looked at it. The name is pushed into the old brown cover. It's very little and most people wouldn't even see it.
"It's the name of the writer of the book," Namjoon says simple, shrugging his shoulders. "Adam Priest," Yoongi reads out loud. "I heard that name before, to be honest," J-hope says, suddenly very awake.
"I don't think it's possible though because that book is probably written by an angel," Namjoon says but J-hope takes Namjoon's laptop, looking the author up. It didn't take a lot of time before the screen was filled with information about the middle-aged author who wrote many different books in his life.
They didn't immediately find the book Yoongi was holding but J-hope kept searching for more information and eventually he read that the man was indeed fascinated by angels. A lot of people say he is crazy because his belief in angels goes a little bit further than it should.
It is almost 3:30 am in the morning when J-hope suddenly yells. "I got it!"
"What is it?" Yoongi asks, immediately interested. J-hope points at an address on his screen. "He doesn't live that far so we can just visit him and ask!" he says enthusiastically. He feels proud because he feels useful.
"Do you really think a book that a human wrote would be in heaven?" Namjoon asks. "Joon, I want to try everything I can to find him back! Don't you want to see Jin again?" Yoongi asks, getting a little frustrated because of Namjoon's careless behavior.
The eyes of the younger immediately sprung open when he heard the name. "That what I thought," Yoongi mutters.
Namjoon isn't sure about what he wants. He knows that Jin doesn't want anything with him but he honestly does want to see the boy again. Just to know if he is okay.
He's not over him yet.
"We're definitely going to his place tomorrow!" Yoongi says and J-hope yawns. "You mean in a few hours?" J-hope asks and Yoongi looks at the clock. He nods and gives his friend and guilty look.
"Let's sleep now," he says which made his friends very happy. They are all at Namjoon's house. They have been doing this a lot lately, sleeping all together at each other houses.
Namjoon and J-hope know that Yoongi needs them right now so they aren't leaving his side.
⚜️⚜️
Yoongi startles from a sound behind him. When he turns around he sees J-hope picking something up from the ground which he probably dropped.
He gives him a stern look. "Just don't touch anything," he says making the younger pout.
The first thing they did in the morning was looking for the author's house which was pretty far away but that was totally okay for Yoongi. Jimin is worth anything.
Once they reached the house they immediately saw that it was a little shop so they went inside. They haven't seen anyone yet but right now a woman walks in from a door with the word 'private' on it.
She looks at them with a suspicious look on her face. "Can I help you, guys?" she asks when she finally reaches them. "We're actually looking for Adam Priest? The author?" Yoongi says, giving her his sweetest smile because she looked like she wouldn't trust them.
"What for?" she asks. "I wanted to talk to him about his fascination for angels," Yoongi answers again. He sees Namjoon coming closer in the corner for his eye. "For what? To laugh at him?!" she suddenly says and she sounds very much like she is defending him.
"No, we-" Yoongi starts but the woman cuts him off. "Can't you leave that poor guy alone? He isn't crazy-" she continues but someone else cuts he off.
"What's going on?" A male voice asks. A man walks inside from the same door as the woman did before. "They want to 'talk' to you about your fascination for angels" the woman says to the man, who apparently is Adam Priest.
"Guys, can you please leave. I don't need your opinion on how stupid and crazy I am for believing in angels," he says wanting them to walk to the door and leave again but Yoongi doesn't give up.
"No, we really don't want to do that! We believe in angels too!" he tries but the man shakes his head. "I heard that one already," he just answers, still not believing them.
Yoongi take Jimin's book out of his backpack, showing it to the man who immediately stops what he's doing.
"You wrote this, right?" Yoongi asks. Everyone is quiet.
"Come in," Adam says after a short while. Yoongi sighs relieved and they all walk into the private part which is where Adam lives. They take a seat on the couch in the living room while the woman from before gets something to drink for them.
"Why do you suddenly believe us?" Namjoon asks the man who is sitting in front of them. "That book doesn't exist on earth. It's only available in heaven so that must mean that you came in contact with an angel?" the man explains and Yoongi nods his head.
"How is it possible that a book written by a human is only available in heaven?" Namjoon asks curiously, finding the whole situation pretty weird.
The man doesn't answer, he just turns around and shows his back. He has two big scars in the middle of it. Right where his wings were supposed to be.
