Jimin stared at the fields of dandelions floating in the wind his face blooms like a fresh rose seeing his hometown the childhood memories of him running barefoot on the ground carefree from the world and living his life freely and then he glanced down at the chain wrapped around his neck that reminds him he's not free to run away he's a hostage of the monsters' king and his face fall off like a dead flower

The carriage finally stopped at their destination and taehyung stepped out first and opened the gate for jimin offering his hand for jimin as he took it stepping his foot on the ground that still has his trace, jimin walked hand in hand with taehyung, the grip around his hand was so insecure to let him go, jimin raised his other hand to knock on his house's door his heart was racing the excitement and happiness was crawling in his veins popping throw his lips turning them into a smile

The familiar face of his new friend that he fell apart from too soon opened the door and he hugged the boy as soon as his shocked expression turned into a pure smile with tears flickering in his eyes jimin returned the hug wetting the other boy's cheap clothing with his precious tears, after a while, the boys broke the hug and jungkook spoke his curiosity and worry out "where were you, hyung?" He added the honorifics after knowing the age of the latter from his mother

"Who's on the door kookie?" An old woman's voice came from inside interrupting their reunion, a sob slipped from jimin's mouth hearing his mother's sick voice he snatched his hand away from the king and ran inside to his mother not caring about the promise he made to not go anywhere without the king's permission

The man smiled politely at jungkook and he returned it with the bigger one asking him in with a bow and hands on his chest to show the honor of having him as a guest only if he know the real identity of his honorable guest

Jimin hugged his mother crying on her chest, the man who can hear his sobs from the outside runs his hand through his hair bothered by the noises maybe cause he was the cause of them or maybe because he was used to feeling bothered by others' pain

"My jiminie... You came back" the woman stuttered out in sobs hugging her child closer to her chest jimin nodded his head "I'm sorry mother, for not listening to you" jimin let out a painful sob his mother's warm embrace made him remember all the pain he went through spending the nights praying for death to swallow him before those monsters

"It's fine my son, I'm glad you are back" she replied not knowing what his son went through after disappearing that night, jimin spends hours resting his head on his mother's stomach shedding tears because he knew it won't last forever he will have to go back to that place which stole his happiness from him hiding him in the dark clouds of sadness

"How did you meet him?" Jungkook asked after serving tea to taehyung who was sitting out under an open sky, glancing up at the sky it was a very long time since he watched the sun shining so bright "I met him when he was being held by a monster, I saved him, he was brutally injured so it took him a while to heal" taehyung tells jungkook the believable false story he came up with to tell everyone and in the village and he boldly added "and then we fell for each other he's my boyfriend now"

He makes sure to make it loud and clear for the boy who didn't hesitate wrapping hands around his bride, jungkook took a while to process everything and then nodded his head, yet he still couldn't digest the words of the other. he wasn't used to seeing two guys dating "I'm very thankful you saved his life" jungkook replied he genuinely was because he owes his life to jimin "who are you?" Taehyung asked, the guy didn't introduce himself but he looks very close to jimin

"I'm... He saved my life from a monster just like you, and I didn't have anywhere to go so I live here" jungkook said sipping the tea he made, taehyung nodded in understanding "are you from the city? I mean you look rich" Jungkook asked taehyung arches his brow in suspicion  "you could've asked if I'm from Mount Olympus aren't this is the first place comes to people's minds seeing someone rich"

Taehyung scrunched his nose the hard smell of Zeus' bloodline coming from jungkook's body was making it hard for him to act normal "umm... Gods don't travel down from the mount so I didn't ask" jungkook nervously chuckled "yea I'm from the city" taehyung replied knowing jungkook is hiding the fact he's from mount Olympus and not just that but he's a God belongs to Zeus bloodline

After eating dinner jimin and jungkook talk for a while about how they spent their last days jimin lied about everything as taehyung asked him to, and jungkook tells him about his mother sickness and that she doesn't have many days and only a miracle can save her jimin cried again hearing his mother's condition and thanked jungkook for taking care of his sick mother in his absence

On the other hand, taehyung was sitting outside watching the pair more like glaring at them jimin ignored his presence completely since they arrived here and it wasn't the only bother the boy who is on his nerves since he stepped here was being a booster to the rage building inside of him

Jimin wanted to sleep with his mother but jungkook told him to rest tonight because he would be tired from his long journey and after his insisting jimin agreed with him and decided to sleep in his room with taehyung, he knew he had to face him he can't ignore him forever and he can't make the other mad with behaving this way or he'll get in big trouble, he knows what the other is capable of once he gets angry he crushes everything in his feet

"Asked me if you need anything I'm not a heavy sleeper" jungkook smiled putting the water pot on the small table in jimin's room, taehyung nodded his head smiling at the younger male who finally leaves the two of them alone and taehyung stood up to close the door, jimin nervously gulped down he was preparing himself for taehyung's outrage

Taehyung comes and sat beside jimin, jimin was about to beg for his forgiveness but the soft tone and the words of the older shocked him "are you happy?" Taehyung softly spoke turning to jimin "Uhm.." Jimin opened his mouth but then simply nodded "I'm glad you are" taehyung turned his head to look outside of the little window in jimin's room

"She'll be alright" taehyung puts his hand on jimin's shoulder pulling him closer, jimin rests his head on his shoulder taehyung slides his down on his waist giving him a protective hold "I can't let her die I only have her" jimin whispered his voice was broke with his heart "don't waste the days you have with her crying, while you can spend them smiling with her"

Jimin nodded his head wiping his tears. taehyung was right he knows he can't save her but he can make her happy with the smile on his face not with tears in his eyes, "I'm sorry for ignoring you" jimin apologized he still hates him but he can't be ungrateful to the kindness the other is showing to him "thank you for bringing me here and not getting mad at me"

"It's okay I can understand and don't say thank you it's my pleasure to make my Queen happy" they both stayed like this for some moment and then decided to lay down for sleep it was already too late, taehyung laid down and jimin covered him with sheets they were thick since it gets very cold at night in winter, he stared at the sheets "you won't mind sharing them with me?" He asked looking up at taehyung

"Won't you?" taehyung raised his brow playfully and jimin rolled his eyes slipping in the sheets with him, they were facing each other staring in eyes of the other, jimin's room was very small with one small table and a box for his clothes and nothing else he sleeps on the ground his bedding wasn't thick either but it was comfortable to him and more secure than the comfortable king-sized bed of the palace "the thing I said earlier I mean it," taehyung said and jimin quickly lowered his head shutting his eyes closed ignoring the other again

Taehyung cupped his face pulling his head up jimin slowly opened his eyes staring at the black orbs of the other his breathing gets heavier with the little distance between them and suddenly taehyung spoke "Jimin-ah I like you the most" hearing his name from the other's mouth for the first time makes jimin's stomach crumble but the words that slips after them was more noticeable

Jimin could hear his heart ringing in his ear, it was going crazy inside of his chest after hearing those words, the cold temperature of the winter wasn't enough to fight with the heatwave in jimin's body that turned his face red, he took some time to respond his heart was telling him to go against it but jimin followed his head "why?"

The question makes taehyung's lips sealed or was it his mind that stops processing, after some moment of silence jimin turned around when he didn't get his answer, for some reason he felt his heart saddened by the silence he got as an answer, he shouldn't get happy or sad by the other's action, he can't get emotionally attached to him but his heart wasn't acting the way he wants, jimin drifted off in sleep with the melody of taehyung's confession ringing in his ear.
