Thirty five

They drove for hours on end. Taehyung was tired of even asking Jimin where they where going to and decided to take a light nap. He woke up when he heard the slam of the door. He widened his eyes as he looked around him. They had arrived at  quite a lonely isolated place. The car was in front of a white painted duplex. There were only two or more houses close by at the other side of the street. It felt like a different world on its own. The feeling he felt was akin to the one he had when they where trapped in the island.

"Welcome princess!" Jimin said as he opened his side of the door. There was a slight smirk on his lips as he stared at him.

"Princess? What's that?" Taehyung scoffed as he stepped out of the car.

"Where are we?"

Jimin spread his arms. "At my safe haven...come on, let's go in"

Taehyung took a deep breath. One week right? He could bear it all for one week as long as he got what he wanted. His father would be pissed but it would all still work out in the end.

He followed Jimin into the house. Its architectural construct was beautiful and simple. The walls where painted white while the curtains, drapes and seats where all in gold colour creating a sense of euphoria and serenity.

"I designed this house myself" Jimin announced as he pulled off his coat and dropped it on the leather couch.

"It's the place I go to when I need to think or just get away. Even my parents who control every expense I make don't even know about this property so we are safe here, at least for now"

Taehyung nodded as he watched Jimin move to the wine cabinet.

"Care for something to drink?" The older said.

Taehyung sighed. "I'm pretty hungry Jimin..."

"Oh right! I'm sorry. I just had to get away with you quickly. I didn't think of getting anything to eat"

He took out his phone. "I'll order us some pizza"

Taehyung shrugged.  "Can you even get a pizza delivery around here? This place looks so deserted"

"Its a small town Taehyung not a village. They can deliver pizza just fine!"

He began to talk on his phone when Taehyung interrupted him.

"I haven't told you my specialty yet!"

Jimin smiled. "Plain cheese pizza with tomatoes and chicken nuggets toppings, fried and extra crispy"

Taehyung stared at him mouth agape.
"How did you..."

"You told me remember?"

Flash back

They where back in the island, lying on the sands looking up at the red sun

"I miss a lot of things!" Jimin muttered.

Taehyung turned to him with a wry smile.

"Guess what I miss the most?"

Jimin looked at him, mischievousness shining in both their eyes.

"Pizza!" They both yelled at the same time. Once they realized they had mentioned the same thing at the same time, they burst out laughing.

As the laughter died down, Taehyung shook his head.

"God, I miss it so much. The yummy satisfying feeling I get when I take the first bite. I can just feel myself tasting it"

Jimin chuckled. "How do you like yours?"

"Plain but with round slices of tomatoes and chicken nuggets. I prefer them fried and extra crispy"

He smiled at the older. "What about you?"

He pouted. "Just plain pizza no extra toppings but on occasions, I do like some pepperoni!"

"Yuck! I hate it!" Taehyung shouted wearing a disgusted look.

"Seriously... It tasted good with that pepper taste" Jimin said pouting.

"Stop pouting. You look so adorable. You make me want to kiss you"

Jimin stared at him and rolled his eyes. "Here we are having a nice decent conversation and you just have to flirt"

"Can't blame a guy for trying"

"You're unbelievable Taehyung, unbelievable" Jimin said shaking his head. Before long, they where both chuckling.

Flashback ends

Taehyung stared at Jimin as he continued his call. A warm feeling surrounded him like that moment in the island where they had no one else but each other. His heart was spiked for a second but then again, the feeling vanished. he sat on the couch.

"What do you think is going to happen here? How do you expect me to just live under the same roof with you?"

Jimin sighed before sorting on the couch opposite his.

"It's because I can't give up on you, on us!" He scoffed. "You have no idea what I was going to do to myself two weeks ago because of you. I thought if I just went on with it, I would slowly forget everything. I thought if I lied to you and to myself that I no longer felt anything for you, it would make the pain go away but you... Kim Taehyung, you are something else. You have planted yourself so deep inside my fucking heart that I don't know what to do anymore"

"You hurt me every single moment by the look in your eyes, by your indifference towards me. You keep hurting me and still, I hold on to you...to your old memories"

Small droplets of tears fell down his eyes and Taehyung's heart hurt like hell. He didn't know why seeing Jimin's tears made him feel sad and those words he said completely overwhelmed. He stood up.

"I think I need some fresh air" He muttered and ran out.

What the hell Park Jimin! Crying in front of Taehyung? You where supposed to look suave and charming not bawling your eyes out like a fucking child. Now, he was probably feeling awkward and it's all your fault"
He complained to himself.

Meanwhile, Taehyung found an empty room upstairs. It looked neat and the bed was already made up so he laid down on the bed feeling extremely weak and tired. Without realizing it, he woke up. Hunger woke him up. He looked around him. It was nearly dark and he was still here in Jimin's safe haven. He groaned and was about getting up when he noticed the pizza box and a can of coke on the bedside table. He opened it and there it was in all it's glory with his favorite toppings. He quickly dug in finishing it in one sitting before downing the Coke as well. Now, he could live.

He stepped out of the room and went downstairs. He instantly recognized Jimin's high pitched voice but there was someone else there too and the voice was rather familiar. He entered quickly and saw Jungkook. He and Jimin seemed to be in a deep conversation

"Jungkookshi!" Taehyung whispered. They both stood up and looked at him. Jungkook exposed his bunny teeth t towards him.

"Hey Taehyung, you're awake!"

"What are you doing here?"

Jimin and Jungkook looked at each other before they looked back at him again"I came to see you! "

Taehyung was confused but Jungkook continued.

"Come here and sit down, there's something we have to tell you"

Taehyung slowly walked over to them and sat down between them. They looked so nervous but he was more nervous than them.

"Taehyung, I know you have been feeling strange lately. Most times, you have this anger welling up inside of you, it feels like you're going crazy. I'm going to tell you here that none of it is your fault. It's all mine"

Taehyung looked at Jimin but he looked scared, terrified.

"These past two months has been lies, your feelings for Jimin where never genuine. It was all because of my carelessness. Your soul is restless. You are so angry because deep down, you need answers"

"What the hell are you talking about?"

Jimin sighed. "I'm going to tell you something that's going to shock you. You will find it hard to believe but I'll prove it to you"

There was a deep strangling silence that hung in the air.

"I'm not human Taehyung. I'm an angel"

Taehyung nearly choked, his eyes widening. "You're what?"

He looked at their faces and burst out laughing.

"Angel? That's ridiculous"

A small smirk appeared on Jungkook's lips as he stood up. The lights immediately went out creating just pitch black darkness and the next thing Taehyung saw was huge white shining wings.

"Holy shit!" He gasped.
