5. Taekook - Inner Child (pt.1)
Lyrics:
At that time, we were so tired
While looking up at those stars in the sky, too far out of reach
You at that time, didn't believe in galaxies
But I saw it, a silver galaxy
It would have hurt, it would have been so tiring
Because I ran towards the endless light
The tingling sun and that summer's air
The grey-lit streets' sounds that were so cold
I draw in a breath and knock at your door
We gon' change
We gon' change
We gon' change
We gon' change
We gon' change
Jungkook and I were laying on the ground, we had a fun, but tiring, day. It was always fun camping, we went on hikes, and would play in the lake, laughing and splashing each other. We were on our 'families' yearly camping trip. It was midnight, and the stars were all out, and we were laying there admiring them as we usually do, like how we have every year since I can remember. Before our parents and siblings would join us, now our parents are busy with work, and siblings didn't want to be in nature.
I lifted my hand up trying to reach the sky.
When I was 5 I thought that if I grew, that one day I would be able to touch the stars, and every year i've tried, i've tried to touch the stars and the sky. When we were younger, Jungkook would help me, he would let me sit on his on his shoulders, and every year, it was just a tiny bit out of reach, I would then try to reach further, but I never reached. 'Next year I can' I would think while sitting beside the fire roasting marshmallows.
This year was different, I turned 16 and Jungkook turned 17, we were still best friends, but we weren't as young as we were before, we still did everything together, and told each other everything, we knew how the other felt about things, and would comfort each other through hardships, like when his mom and sister died in a car accident 2 years ago.
Well at least I thought we did
"Tae, why do you always try to reach the sky, you'll never reach it?" he said while still looking at the sky
"You know why Kook"
"But why the sky? Why not college or your dreams?"
"You really don't get it kook, do you?"
"Get what?"
"This is my dream, I've tried every year to try and touch the galaxies above, and up until last year you would help me. When I'd reach my hand up, you would pick me up and help me try to reach it. Remember?"
"I guess...I stopped believing in the Galaxy, tae"
"I know it hurt kook, I know you miss them, I miss them too. They were practically my family. You're my family"
Jungkook still looked blankly up at the sky, silent, until he asked me a question.
"Will you help me believe again Tae?" He sounded so sad, almost hopeless. I just laid on top of him
"Of course I will Kook, what sort of friend would I be if I didn't?"
He was silent for a minute "yeah, friend"
"Kook, we gon' change. I will help you everyday to believe, starting with being by your side for everything, and making you look for happiness in everything."
"Tae, we gon' change, starting with us" he said motioning to both of us "I've had feelings for you since we were kids, and if anything, being by your side will help me to believe again. I lost faith by losing something important to me, maybe I can start to get it back by making sure I don't lose anyone close again."
"Jungkook, I like you too." Jungkook pulled me in to a hug he. We spent the rest of the night in each other's arms until he picked me up and put me on his shoulders
"Try to touch the moon for me, Tae" I reached as high as I could, but it was just out of reach
"I can't Kook, I'm trying but I can't."
I let out a sigh, will I ever able to touch the sky? Be able to hug the stars, and give the moon a kiss?
"I don't know Tae, but you can try." What did he mean, I wondered. "Give the moon a kiss from here Tae, give the stars a hug from down here Tae" I looked down at him and wondered how he knew that, did he read my mind? "You said it out loud Tae" he answered my silent question. I just noded, I then looked back up at the stars, they were beautiful. I sent out a silent prayer 'please help kook find the Galaxy again'
Jungkook took me off his shoulders, the sun was already starting to rise in the sky, we went back to our tents, but it was very cold, I wrapped myself in my blanket that I had in my sleeping bag and ducked through the flap that was my door.
I walked a couple feet from the door, up to the front of Jungkooks tent, I took a deep breath and then attempted to 'knock' on the flap, it just made a scratching sound. I thought to myself silently 'we gon' change, we gon' change'. Jungkook didn't say anything so I tried again
"Kookie?"
"Are you okay Tae?" He sounded a bit worried
"I'm fine... it's just... it's really cold in my tent...and I was...wondering if I could..."
"Yes you can Tae, come in, it must be colder outside then it was in your tent" I went to unzip the tent and when I did that I entered, leaving my sandals in front of the door.
When I finished zipping the tent back up,I turned around and saw Jungkook scooting over in his sleeping bag, Tae went and layed down on top of it with his blanket. The older just laughed and then opened his arms wide for me
"Come here baby" I blushed and then shuffled into the sleeping bag bringing my blanket with me, using it now as a pillow. He pulled me closer to him, into his arms, and I layed my head on his shoulder disregarding the blanket. He then rapped his other arm around my waist, pulling me closer then I thought I could ever be. I still had a blush on my face, so I hid my face in his neck. He let out a quiet chuckle and held me close. Soon we both fell asleep, happy and warm.
A/N: I hope you liked the chapter, I tried to make it fluffy, I am going to make like 2 more parts, one for each stanza in the song. Stay happy, healthy, and out of trouble. I Purple You!!!
Me: *takes this one shot, made it Hetero, and changed the names, then turned it in to my ELA teacher for a writing warm up*
