Chapter 40


[Writing this chap while at the gym like]

A little something after WINGS #1 Begin came out:

_________________________



Jimin mumbled something that sounded like a curse word then walked into the bathroom. I heard splashes of water.

I finally let out my breath.

"Senaaaa!!" The voice persisted as the banging on my door continued.

I cleared my throat, "Yeah!? What do you want?"

"Open up."  He said.

I clenched my jaw and tried to calm myself, I opened the door to find Namjoon with his hair dripping wet and a worried look plastered across his face. He was wearing a white vest and black jogging bottoms, I sneaked a glance at his arms.

"Yes?" I stared at him, waiting for a worthy reason for being interrupted.

He looked around before speaking
"Oh, have you got a spare hair dryer?"

"IS THAT WHY YOURE HERE?" I yelled and walked back towards my bag, grabbed my hairdryer and stomped back towards him.

"Seriously? THIS was the hurry?" I rolled my eyes at him.

"Well I'm gonna be late for a video call with Sariah and I can't wait for Minjun to finish..." He paused for a moment and looked at the hairdryer I had handed him- "Your hairdryer is sort of a piece of crap..."

I rolled my eyes,
"Fine, hand it back." I said in a fed up tone.

COULD PEOPLE  PLEASE STOP INSULTING MY HAIRDRYER PLEASE.

"No no it's fine! Thank you!" He nervously laughed as he placed one hand on the back of his neck.

"Is that all?" I turned my head a little as I impatiently waited for him to leave.

He took a moment to think, "OH, and, have you seen Jimin? He's missing."

I was a bit taken back from the question, "No, why are you asking me?" I furrowed my brows.

"I thought you might have seen him."

"What made you think that?" I snapped.

"Okay. Chill! What's gotten into you?" He poked at my face and tried to cheer me up.

"Nothing. I'm sorry... I'm just tired." I grumbled.

He held the hair dryer like a gun and made a 'pew pew' sound before turning around and walking away.

Nervous, I made my way into the room again to see Jimin quietly sitting on the couch with his phone out.

He looked sad, but I could tell he was trying to maintain a straight face.

He put his phone away and smiled at me, "Another time?" He said as he tilted his head, then he stood up and walked towards me.

He softly touched his lips to my left cheek and walked out of the door.

I heard the door slam shut.

Immediately I let out what sounded like a hybrid between a scream and a groan then flung myself onto the bed, while kicking my legs about.
As I was rolling around in my confusion and frustration, my phone vibrated.

I checked the message:

Jimin:
Another time. Promise, night x

I flung my phone to the other side of my bed.

I wasn't sure if I was disappointed, angry, or relieved. Was I really ready? Had I really wanted to kiss him for the first time in some hotel in London?

To be frank, I didn't know shit.

I was flooded with a mixture of emotions and questions, but I couldn't deny that 'sad' was one of these emotions.

I started singing to myself-
"WHAT DOES IT MEAN? WOA AHHHH WHAT DOES IT MEAN? WOT DUS IT MEYNNNN"

The sound of the door opening caused me to halt.

"Minjun?" I called.

"HEY ITS ME! How'd it go????" She was glowing with joy.
Minjun hopped onto my bed and propped her head up on her wrists, "So?..." She waited for a response, her eyes wide with curiosity. 

I took a moment to stare at her, ugh all this joy and brightness, I was too tired for it tonight.
"I don't want to talk about it." I lightly pushed her away.
"Why the sour expression? Did something happen?"
"I don't have a sour expression."
"Yeah you do." She leaned in and pulled my mouth into a smile with her index fingers. "There. Better." She giggled to herself.

I never told her what had happened- or I guess you could say what hadn't happened.

When I closed my eyes that night, I kept going back to that frame.
That one single frame, where everything had paused, like you know how in TV shows they cut off at a really intense scene and you'll have to wait a whole week to find out what happens?
That's what it felt like, it felt like a short eternity.

We had an eternity for a while.
That was the best way I could describe it.

That anxious feeling never left my gut, nor did the hitch in my heartbeat ever quite leave- they just slightly faded as time passed, but never quite disappeared.

I rolled over to my phone and checked the time: it was 02:57.
Superb.

Considering I hadn't been able to sleep last night either.
I could feel the bags under my eyes comfortably settling in, marking my face.

I started messaging him, I couldn't help it. It was like an automatic reflex.

Sena: I can't sleep

Jimin: Me too. Because of what happened earlier?

Sena: Maybe

Sena: Yes.

Jimin: I'm Sorry, I shouldn't have...

Sena: What do you mean?

Jimin: I mean, maybe that wasn't the time and the place, maybe it's a good thing we got disrupted?

Sena: I don't know, maybe. I guess.

Jimin: Were you nervous?

Sena: No not at all. OF COURSE I WAS WTH.

Jimin: :)

Sena: Shut up

Jimin: I didn't say anything!

Sena: I really can't sleep.

Jimin: Well, wanna come over?

Sena: What? To your hotel room?

I contorted my face and let out a muffled awkward noise as I pressed send.

Jimin: No, to Neverland. -.-

Jimin: So, are you coming?

Sena: With how nervous I feel, I don't think being in the same room with you would help me sleep at all..

Jimin: Well, have you got any headphones with you?

Sena: Yeah, Why?

Jimin: Okay one sec, I'm gonna call you.

I rummaged around the nightstand, feeling my way through the darkness, I grabbed the thin plastic cable.
I lay back down and Just as I plugged the headphones in, he called.

Hesitant, I swiped to 'answer'.

"Yes?" I whispered, puzzled.
"Well I thought I could sing you to sleep at least." He spoke with his normal voice, I mean it made sense he was alone after all.

"Oh... That'd be great." I managed to say as I smiled to myself. Instantly I could feel that my cheeks were burning up.

"Are you blushing?" His question was accompanied by a sharp exhale that may have been a smirk.
I responded with silence.
"I'm brilliant, I know, you can thank me later." He chuckled.

I laughed a little, making sure to not make too much noise since Minjun was fast asleep.

"After I'm done singing, should I hang up? I mean hopefully you'll be asleep, so you won't be able to..." He asked.

"It's up to you."
"Actually, please hang up after you think I'm asleep, but please don't stick around..." I added.

"What? You afraid I'll hear you snore?" He teased.

"No, I don't snore. I'm afraid your snoring will wake me up." I teased back.

I heard him exhale sharply, you know, like how you do when you read something funny and type "LOL" but don't really laugh.

"Fine, I'll hang up after I think you're sleeping." He paused for a moment,
"Okay, what do you want me to sing?" He asked.

Well.... to be honest I had always wanted him to sing Bruno Mars' 'Just the way you are' but let's be honest, that would bring up a lot of feels- not to mention that it could have a negative effect if he pronounced things terribly wrong.

"You decide." I said.

"Okay, gimme a second... I'm thinking... Okay, I got it." He softly laughed.

I held my breath, anticipating what he would sing me this time.

There was a few seconds of silence, followed by the sound of Jimin breathing in, he started singing "Love, love the stars. Love, love the moon..."
Dean's Half moon.

Which was fucking genius of him.
He has seen my 'Sleep' playlist, and he knew that Half moon was on it.
The only downside to this was that every time I hear the song now, I yearn to hear his voice instead, sorry Dean.

I closed my eyes and lay in a foetal position, tightly hugging Dooly, snuggled up between a dozen pillows, just listening to his voice in my head.

His voice felt like it was floating in my mind, gently jumping around, soothing everything it touched.

My heart was racing, but at the same time, it was not- it had a calm and steady beat. It was a calm excitement.

Without knowing it I found myself smiling in the dark.
Smiling as I drifted asleep to his soft voice.

Once the song had finished he continued humming a tune I think it was Half moon, but I couldn't quite make it out, it was beginning to sound even more blurred as I drifted further into sleep.

Jimin quietly said a few final words just as I fell completely into a deep sleep.

I couldn't make those out either.








JIMIN'S POINT OF VIEW:

It was dark, and I was laying on the bed, staring towards the ceiling, staring into the darkness, as I continued singing to her, I sang as softly and sweetly as I could.

I too closed my eyes, in fact I had almost drifted asleep myself.

"Nothing comes even close
To half of you
It doesn't fill me up, yeah~
If only I had just half of you
Then I wouldn't feel like this
If only..."

I quietly took a deep breath and listened out- nothing.

Was she asleep? I had no way to tell, if I called her name I could have woken her up. Should I have called her name?

For a few silent moments I waited and listened to her breathing, not because I'm creepy, but because it made me think things like 'she's real, she's alive, she's here, she's with me'- well sort of, she was within a 50 metre radius of me.
And that amazed me, that made me smile.

I started quietly humming Half Moon to myself to give her more to listen to, and then, without warning, without having made any conscious decision myself, as if it were a reflex- as if it were the most natural thing in the world; those three words escaped my lips.

"I love you."
