September 19, 20XX-Friday

Did you ever crave something, but couldn't ever figure out what it was you craved?

I felt empty, even more so than ever before and I couldn't quite figure out what it was I was missing.

I was making my way to the corner store when I spotted Taehyung heading in my direction.

He was trudging along with his coat half on and backpack in hand.

Before he noticed me, I dipped into the alleyway and pressed myself against the wall, waiting until the moment he walked past to grab him in surprise.

Stumbling back, he whirled around and stared at me with wide eyes.

I let go of him and leaned back against the wall, biting down on my lower lip to prevent a giggle from escaping.

His eyes softened once he realized it was me.

I smiled back, but as I got a closer look at him I couldn't help but frown.

More bruises...?

"Taehyung..."

His eyes watered.

"What are-"

Before I could get the question out, he shook his head and shut me up with his lips.

I forgot how to breathe at that moment.

Taehyung pulled back from the kiss slightly to whisper, "Let's not..."

I nodded my head, understanding what he struggled to say.

Let's not talk about it.

He let out a shaky breath before pressing his lips back against mine. This time, I relaxed and focused on how soft his lips felt and the way they treated own with such delicacy.

Why did he kiss me?

I wondered this for a while.

His kisses suddenly grew needy as his lips crushed harder against mine. I parted my lips and allowed myself to taste more of him.

As I did, I only kept wanting more and more.

I craved him.

It was getting harder to breathe and I kept breaking for air.

Each time I did,  I thought it would be the end to our kisses, but our lips kept finding their way back to each other. 

Just like we always did.

Because we finally found the star to illuminate our dark nights.
