XXIII
"My name is Kim Namjoon
And I'm the Grim Reaper."
My eyes widened and no words came out of my mouth as I looked at the man infront of me, he was dressed in a black cloak and he lifted his head to stare at my eyes.
"I-It's not funny, it's not Halloween yet," my lips trembled as I looked at the man infront of me, fear rushing in my veins.
He lifts his head and his pupils were no longer brown, they were golden yellow.
But what scared me the most is...
I have a crush on a dead guy?
Or apparently, Death?
As if it was an instinct, I grabbed the broken clock and threw it at Namjoon, making him widen his eyes as it almost hit his shoulder if he hadn't dodged it.
"Wait! Wait!" He squawked as I threw him a sneaker.
It hit his face and he groaned as he held his precious face.
"Don't touch me! I mean... don't take me away please! I'm still young! I have so many plans in life and I've been good!" I yelled at him as he stared at me with the "what the fuck" face.
"I'm not gonna devour your soul for fuck's sake! I don't do that!" He screamed as he almost got hit by my other sneaker.
"Prove it! This isn't funny!" I muttered with widened eyes as he looked at me with a question mark written on his face.
"Fine then!" He said as he raised his arms, his yellow eyes glowing even more as he summoned a black thing, which was now above him. He whispered a few words and the black thing turned into a cloud, a rumble of yellow thunder coming from it.
My eyes widened and my heart started racing at this... unbelievable thing happening infront of me.
"Okay! Okay! Make that go away! Please!" I said as I squinted my eyes and covered my face, the black cloud getting larger as the seconds pass.
"Please, The Reaper Namjoon," he corrected as another boom of thunder appeared on te dark cloud.
"P-please The Raper Namjoon," I plead as I squint my eyes a bit because I have never seen a cloud indoors.
I mean, no one ever has.
"It's Reaper."
"Rapper?"
"Reaper."
"Rap Monster?"
"R-E-A-P-E-R. Reaper."
"Oh, Reaper."
Namjoon nods, contented of what I said and placed his hands back to his sides, the cloud clearing up and I sighed un relief as I looked at him.
"H-how did you do that?" I asked him, still frightened from what happened.
"Well, magic," he said whilst rolling his eyes.
"I really can't believe you're...death," I say as I look at his ethereal face that was staring at me.
"I can't believe I'm feeling that bump from the sneaker you threw me," he says as he winces at the mark where I threw a shoe at him.
"I can't believe I'm in love with y-," I say but my eyes widened as I almost let that word slip out.
"In love with...?" Namjoon trails off.
Me and my big mouth.
"In love with yOUR brother!" I exclaim before giving him a smile.
Nice save there Aehye.
Wait
WAIT
What did I just say?
I just told Namjoon I'm in love with that snake when they live together?
I fiddle with my fingers and Namjoon gives me a stoic look as he tried to process what I just said. I gave him a sheepish smile in return.
Why am I embarrassing myself?
Why is my life like this? Why do I have to live here, just to suffer?
"That's not the point anyway," Namjoon shot back and I slumped my shoulders as I looked at his clam expression.
"Just... come with me," he said as he gestured his hand to me, signalling me to come nearer.
I swallowed the lump in my throat before forwarding my body towards him, and he gives out a small hum before rolling his eyes.
"I'm not poison ivy, so stop looking at me like I'll give you a disease," he says with furrowed brows.
I exhale deeply before walking towards him in the most normal way possible.
"Namjoon, if you try to take my life away-," I trail off and he gives me his "you stupid pig" face before groaning.
"I told you I don't do that to living people, okay? You really think I can do that? There is death for a reason," he shot back before looking at me.
"Th-then... why did you openly tell me this? Do you trust me?" I ask him and he shrugs before giving me his cute dimple smile.
"Of course, just say whatever you think is true," he says as he gives me a stare.
"What about Seokjin? Wh-why is he in jail? Do you know about what happened?" I asked him and he looked around before leaning towards me.
"I don't know, I was at home remember? You expect me to be like a madman and shout at the streets that my friend is arrested? I'd get arrested too if it wasn't for my cop ass," he answered and I crossed my arms as I looked at him.
"For a Grim Reaper, you really look like the opposite," I remarked as I looked at him up and down.
"It's hard being infront a person in which you just want to bury them alive, take their soul and torment them," Namjoon narrowed his eyes and my eyes widened, a chill running down my spine.
"Hey Aehye, come here, I have a secret for you," he suddenly spoke, he leaned towards my face, inching towards my ear.
I couldn't even deny I blushed.
Yes, even though he's Death I still turn red in every touch he gives me.
I could feel his soft lips touching my ear, his hot breath filling my ears like a melody as I wait in anticipation.
But then, a golden dust blinds my vision, my eyelashes coming in contact with the dusty fragments of gold as they swish around my vision like a fog, I squint my eyes through the contact, closing my eyelids as my vision starts to get blinded by gold.
As the dust started to unfold, my eyelids automatically lifted open, my eyes widened as the golden fog and dust started to clear up, and my eyes widened as I looked what was right before me.
"Aehye...
....welcome, to the Land of the Dead."
