Hello my beautiful babies.

I'm back at it again with another Taehyung chapter, because...I can do what I want.

Anyway,

I hope you know I love you and I wish you good luck on whatever difficulties you may be facing, whether it be a crisis in your life or fear of toast popping out of the toaster.

Bye!

///////////////////////////////////////////

The warmth that surrounded your body was blissful.

Your body slowly stirred into consciousness, eyes fluttering open slowly as a happy sound escaped your parted lips.

You had slept great.

You were warm throughout the night and for the first time in a while, your sleep was dreamless and peaceful...just the way you liked it. Your body felt light and weightless and you felt like you had just woken up from a six hour nap. You were replenished and you were happy.

You couldn't remember the last time you had felt like this. You had always been the kind of person who had always had some small part of fear lingering in the back of their minds, but now...you were completely relaxed and there was only one person to thank for that....

Taehyung.

You smiled to yourself, turning over in your bed happily.

After what happened between the two of you, Taehyung had said it would be best if you both slept in your separate rooms...he didn't want to be tempted to go farther than you wanted him to, so it was for the best. You agreed with him, of course and allowed him to walk you to your bedroom door.

He managed to sneak in one last peck before the two of you said your goodbyes.

You remember laughing when he jumped up and clicked his heels as he walked towards his own room.

You sat up in your bed, anxious to see the orange-haired hatter again.

"Good morning, darling."

A large smile pulled on your features at the familiar voice that filled the air. Your head turned instantly, eyes snapping to the man that stood beside your bed.

"Hi, Taehyung." You said, taking him in.

Before you two had said your goodbyes, Taehyung had told you about his previous colorblindness and how it had affected him since he was born. He told you that the second his kissed you, he could see all the colors that surrounded him...He said that you were magic.

You remembered blushing and smiling at his words, your heart soaring.

Taehyung smiled widely at you as he moved closer, sitting down on your bed, his multicolored eyes never leaving yours.

"Did you sleep well?" He asked quietly.

You nodded.

"I did." You stated. "Did you?"

The young hatter chuckled at your question, his own head nodding in response.

"I had a great sleep."He beamed, his finger pointing to the drapes above your bed. "What color is that?"

You tilted your head at his odd question, brows furrowing together in curiosity.

"That's red." You said.

He smiled widely as he stared at the drapes.

"Red." He repeated softly, moving his eyes to your bed sheets. "And this?"

You smiled, beginning to understand his questions.

"This is blue."You stated. "Light blue."

He hummed, fingers brushing over the silk of your sheets softly.

You watched him scan over the numerous colors of your room, awe evident on his features. You had never known that Taehyung was colorblind before last night, but the way he looked at the world now...you knew he had only been living in black and white.

Taehyung moved his gaze to your face, studying your features carefully as he moved closer to you.

Your breath hitched as his thumb brushed across your bottom lip, his breathing becoming uneven as he stared at the soft flesh.

"And this?" He whispered, tapping your lip with his thumb. "What color is this?"

You swallowed hard as his eyes rose to yours, suddenly very aware of how close the two of you were.

"Th-That's pink." You breathed out. "My lips are pink."

Taehyung hummed, leaning closer to you.

"Out of all the colors I have seen so far," He whispered, staring down at your lips. "This one is my favorite."

Your heart fluttered at his words, and you found yourself leaning closer to him, allowing your nose to brush against his slightly.

The hatter sighed out, his hands cupping both sides of your face as he pulled you closer, allowing your lips to meet his.

This kiss was no different from the last. Colors and fireworks were all around the two of you as a strong sense of euphoric bliss shot through your bodies. It was almost as though you were two puzzle pieces that were made to be together....It was like you were made to be together.

You were not a big romantic, but the way Taehyung held you and kissed you...it made you feel as though you were on cloud nine and you couldn't explain how happy he made you feel.

"Darling," Taehyung muttered between kisses. "I came in here to tell you something important and you have distracted me."

You hummed against his lips, a smile forming on your face as you kissed him.

"I'm sorry." You lied.

He chuckled, running his hands through your hair and pulling you closer by your waist.

"You're a little temptress, aren't you?" He asked.

You nodded.

"I am."

He shook his head while laughing, slowly pulling away from you, his hands grabbing your own as he beamed at you happily.

"Have you made a decision?" He asked. "About being The Keeper, I mean?"

Your smile instantly fell at that, not wanting to discuss that topic in the least.

You still had no idea what you wanted to do...It was scary to think that you would have to choose either this world or your world...You didn't know which one you belonged to...which one you wanted to live in...You didn't know if you were ready for the responsibility of being The Keeper....if you stayed, you would be in charge of everyone's fate...you would decided what happened to them and if you made a single mistake, everything could fall into pieces.

"I haven't." You sighed out, looking away from him.

Taehyung's eyes softened on you as you pulled away from him slowly.

"I know that it's hard, darling." He said softly. "And I will not pressure you to choose now, but the time is coming when you will have to make a decision and you will need to be prepared."

You nodded.

"I know." You stated. "But it's hard. I just-I don't want to let everyone down, you know?"

"Don't think about everyone else." Taehyung deadpanned. "This is your life, not anyone else's, only choose what will make you happy."

You moved your eyes to his.

"What if you make me happy?" You asked. "Do I have to stay here if I want to be with you?"

Taehyung grabbed your hand, placing it on his chest directly over his beating heart.

"This beats because of you." He said softly. "I will follow you wherever you go."

You smiled widely, cheeks reddening. 

"Really?" You asked. "What if I wanted to live in the ocean?"

He chuckled.

"Then I'd learn how to swim."

"What if I wanted to live in the dessert?"

"I'd have to find some sunscreen."

"Well, what if-"

He cut your words off by pulling you closer, eyes boring into yours as he smiled at you.

"Anywhere, darling." He breathed. "You're my confetti."

You beamed at him, resting your forehead against his as your eyes fluttered shut.

You had heard that term before...Namjoon had told you about Taehyung's precious confetti, he had told you what it meant to the mad hatter and how important of a role it played in his life...And here he stood, giving you the title of his confetti. You couldn't have been happier.

What amazed you was the fact that Taehyung had never once seen color in his life, but somehow managed to choose the most colorful and beautiful thing...

Although you still weren't entirely sure what being his 'confetti' entailed, you knew for a fact that it meant he would never abandon you or hurt you in anyway.

"There's something I need you to know." Taehyung stated.

You slowly pulled away from him, eyes scanning over his face.

"What is it?" You asked.

Taehyung moved his gaze to your intertwined fingers, his thumb moving over the soft flesh of your hand.

"When Titan reaches the castle...I will be the first one he comes for." He breathed. "And I want you to know that no matter what happens to me, you must find a way to get out of here if he manages to catch me."

Your eyebrows shot up at his words, head shaking.

"What are you talking about?" You asked. "Why would he come for you first?"

He shook his head.

"We have a history." He stated. "Please promise me, that no matter what happens to me...you will leave at the first sign of danger."

"But-"

"Promise me, Y/n."

Your eyes widened slightly at the sound of your name coming from his lips.

You couldn't help but feel like he was pleading with you at this moment, his hands holding yours tightly and his eyes wide....He rarely called you by your name...and you knew that since he did...

It was serious.

He was planning to die.
