Chapter 103
You were walking towards the beach while looking down and trying to hide the smile that couldn't help but reach to your lips after what had happened in the room, earlier with Jimin.
You really couldn't believe that it really was just a misunderstanding and that he really meant his words when he said that he wanted to try and create a relationship with you.
All this time, you had really suffered by yourself while trying to get him out of your thoughts and your heart and do what you thought that was best, that being keeping a distance from him. But you were proven to have been mistaken and you were never more happy to have been wrong.
Not did he only waited till you would be ready to face him and explain to him but he actually had trusted your words of love enough to not believe your statement that went against it. He had trusted you and patiently waited to confront you about it and that, taking in consideration his past and inability to trust others, said a lot about his improvement.
"Y/n!" Sira's voice woke you up from your daydreaming and you gazed past your shoulder quickly to see where Jimin was, as you had told him to get out of the house separately in order not to be suspicious, considering that this place was full of graduated students and you didn't want any rumors going around.
"Why didn't you change yet? Ethan is waiting for you to go swimming." She raised her voice enough to be sure that Jimin that was at some fit distance could hear her as that was her purpose from the start.
"Oh. I decided against it. I don't look good in that swimsuit." You replied while giving her an awkward smile, only for Jimin to pass by and ruin your little lie.
"She looked hot in it but she is saving the sight for me." He nonchalantly stated as he passed, gaining a loud gasp from Sira that immediately threw her eyes on you.
"He is joking. Joking. Don't let your mind run wild cause i know what you are thinking!" You raised your finger at her and warned her and she tried to collect her mischievous grin while clearing up her throat.
"So.. Did you.. Perhaps.. Made up or something?" She asked and you nodded your head quietly, while she screamed and jumped in your arms, making you unable to contain your laughter and hug her tightly while hoping up and down.
"I knew he wasn't that much of an ass hole. I am so happy for you. I still have to beat him up though for all the days you were suffocating in your bed, unable to shed tears but in pain, like you usually get when you have too many emotions." You looked at her fondly as she was speaking, appreciating to how she cared and looked after you as well as how well she knew you even when she wasn't present.
" You seriously are the best of friends. How did i got so lucky to found you? "
" Oh stop it. I won't allow you to make me emotional. It's party time." She grabbed your hand and pulled you with her, you following happily while stealing a glance over at Jimin whom had taken a seat at the same table as he was before.
---Time skip---
The energy of the party had fallen as hours had passed and now there were only a few people still around that had decided to stay and watch the sunrise.
Taehyung and Sira were seated together besides Jungkook and Areum, the two couples enjoying each other's company while chit-chatting with one another, awaiting for the sun to come.
The night sky had started to get brighter and you really didn't want to miss the sunrise that you were supposed to see together with them, but here you were, holding Jimin's hand as he pulled you away from the beach and back to the Vila but instead of going inside, he leaded you into the garden,in places you had yet to step foot on and explore.
"This garden is beautiful." You commented as you kept walking passed the lines of red roses that decorated a path towards a small looking house.
"It's was my mother's favorite place. She spent most of her time in her work room or as me and Taehyung used to call it.' The room of happiness'. "Jimin smiled as he explained, now your footsteps going up the stone stairs, soon facing the wooden door of the small looking house.
" It even has a magical key. "He said right before putting his hand in the flowers that grew all the way up to the roof of the small house and pulled out the key.
You laughed as he made some magic sound effects, then immediately thought that this trick might have looked fascinating to a child.
He opened the door and you saw his hand that hesitated to pull it open as in that room he hold dear and regretful memories as well. He had stained the happy room for both him and his brother with his mistake that night and here he was now, opening it up after so many years in order to create in it one more happy memory.
He took a deep breath as he pushed the door open and stepped inside, his arm reaching to his right and turned on the lights. The room was plain white with caramel colored furnitures and a sight catching black piano in the corner on the left. Three rows of bookshelves hanging on the wall above it full of books and as you continued observing, you noticed that the most common thing in this room were actually those bookshelves full of books that decorated the most of white walls of this little room.
There was no table or couch but the light caramel color stool by the piano and two more stools by the side of it, living only the floor to carry that sweet color, just like splatters of paint in a white canvas.
A big window was placed on the right that look towards the sea and it had no curtains, as if there would never be a need to keep the light out while in this place.
"It's really beautiful. It feels so quiet and peaceful in here." You stated your mind as you had now stepped inside and couldn't help but continue looking around, noticing that there was no spec of dust anywhere to be seen which means that some maid was assigned to keep this room untouched and clean.
" Everything is exactly as i remember it. Time never goes by in this room. It's like magic yet it isn't.. Because the fairy has left the home." You looked at Jimin as he said so and you noticed that he was looking at the piano with a longing and sad gaze, thing that made you think that the fairy that magically used to bring happiness in his life was non other than his mother.
" She never left. You know that better than me. She is always with you." You told him and gave him a soft understanding look as he turned to face you, then he smiled and came took your hand, taking you to seat on one of the stools at the side of the piano before he himself took a seat before it and uncovered the keyboard.
" I am no piano expert. But i was so in love with this melody when I was little that i learned to play it." He explained right before allowing his fingers to hit some of the keys and then breaking into a smile as he got it wrong.
You laughed too as he looked so shy by his mistake but he nonetheless, gathered his composure and tried again this time playing the part he had learned till the end. You couldn't help but stare as he did, his eyes focused on the keyboard and the melody so sweet and soothing that it made you tear up.
"That was heavenly." Your voice barely got out of your lips as you had fallen into the trace of the melody that had totally relaxed you.
"You are heavenly." He responded as his eyes were looking at you with the same adoring gaze that you were at him and you couldn't help but crack a smile at his response.
"Don't be cheesy" You commented jokingly and he smile wider before coming closer and taking your hand, pulling you up so you would be at his level and softly placing his hands around you.
"I mean it. I may have been blind at the beginning and not noticed you or even treated you badly-"
"Badly? Only badly? You were hell." You cut his words off and he smile again, finding it funny that you seemed still salty about it.
"Well fine, i was rude, and unreasonable mean towards you. And maybe obnoxious sometimes and a bit manipulative for my own good."He admitted while staring at your eyes and you scoffed before murmuring" sometimes? As if!"
" Still you fell for me. "Jimin pointed out and you just pouted in annoyance that he was right.
" Everyone make mistakes at some point in life. I am no exception. "You gave him a sassy response that he smoothly outsmarted it, by referring to your so called mistake, as the best mistake of your life.
You smiled as he came closer and he was smiling too till your lips reached to close to each other and you were looking at each other's eyes. You felt his right hand leaving from your waistline and softly landing on your neck as his thumb caressed your jawline before his lips finally found yours in a slow and soft kiss.
His pace was gentle and he tasted so sweet, like a fine nectar that was poisoning your mind as you kept tasting it. And by the time he pulled away, your eyes could portray clearly how drunk you were by his kiss.
"Just know Y/N, I never imagined this day would come. I never thought it could happen. For me to feel like this, to melt away by someone's touch like this. To dream just by looking at someone's eyes, to feel my love getting deeper as if you were an ocean that has no end and you keep pulling me down, deeper in you. "He voice velvety as he was confessing his feelings of the moment that the kiss you just shared had brought to him.
" I never thought about it, i never dared to dream of such a love nor wish of having it. I should have known better than falling for people by now and yet, look at me. In a blind of an eye, you became important enough for me to want to keep you in my life forever. "His words were so sweet and made you happy beyond words could tell as he wasn't the only one that had fallen in love and even though the feeling was scary and dangerous, you would not step away from it not even an inch, even if it meant your doom.
His eyes slowly closed as he leaned in and captured your lips one more time, you responded to it without a moment of hesitation, your arms getting wrapped around his shoulders while one of your hands digging on his raven hair.
"We should go back. The sun is rising and they will be looking for us." You murmured on his lips once you parted and your mind took its sweet time to regain the sense of time and place.
"Yeah. Let's go." He agreed and you pulled away and turned around to leave but his hand that had took hold of yours, kept you in place and made you turn around and face him again.
He looked at you for a while as if he was struggling to tell you something and you waited for him to speak with a wondering gaze being displayed on your face.
"I love you." His words echoed on your ears as if he had screamed them in an empty place and you stood there staring at him, till those words sunk in your mind, filling your heart with warmth and joy.
He had never said that before to you and even though this is still a start and his love may not be strong enough for you, the fact that he did, says a lot about the road that your relationship had taken and how much Jimin's wish to love you had come a long way to become true.
You said nothing back as you found no words worthy of this moment and able to represent your feelings, so instead you threw yourself in his arms and hugged him tight. Tight enough for the world to stop for the two of you at that moment and forget about the world. Forget about the first rays of the day that soon made their way through the window and fall upon the embraced bodies of two people, that for the first time after a long while, found their heart beating at each and their minds knitting golden dreams full of hope.
All had come a long way, each fighting a personal battle and baring their own scars, failures and mistakes. Each carrying their own decisions that they made along the paths of their lives, sometimes thorny sometimes not, sometimes right and sometimes wrong. They all lived thus they all faced hardships but here they were, in a day that the sun rose again not only in their realities but in their hearts as well.
Cause what is light without darkness and what is love without hate, what is joy without having first been sad and what does success feel like if you have never failed to begin with. What is human if you aren't imperfect and how can someone find themselves if they don't get lost to begin with.
And while wondering on the roads of life , seeking happiness and love, they all found themselves and became better, not in order to reach those things such as happiness and joy, success and love but because those things were what made them grow better as they looked around and realized they already had them all. In different forms each, in a different face and soul than they may have imagined. Love laid before their eyes and finally. They were able to see. The blind souls have just found their sight, as the summer sun washed them with golden warmth.
---The End ---
