𝑺𝒐𝒐𝒃𝒊𝒏 looked at himself in the mirror and smiled, he was feeling way better after taking some days for himself, doing things he liked and relaxing so he could be in a better emotional and mental state. he felt ready now, still hurting and still insecure about a lot of things, but ready to fight for yeonjun without sinking himself in self pity and pain.

the angel knew he couldn't simply give up on himself to have yeonjun, and he said to taehyun he would try to give himself more value. he meant it and he was trying. surprisingly enough, he could already tell the difference just for trying, his mind was a lot more clear of what he should do and it didn't include getting on his knees and begging like if he wasn't a person at all. soobin was proud of himself, even if he still had a long way to go.

the male sighed softly, feeling quite nervous, but managed to push the feeling to the back of his head, turning around and picking the necklace from his nightstand. the scarlet crystal shined under the sunlight and he let out a small smile, remembering the demon's warm eyes and gentle fingers that put the necklace around his neck. yeonjun looked so happy back then, annoying soobin in a playful way and laughing as the most carefree person. it was a pretty memory, not bittersweet and not sad, just pretty.

soobin had asked jungkook early that day if he could pick some flowers from the garden. it was hard to choose one, as the garden was big and with multiple types of flowers, but in the end, he decided for dark pink camellias. his oldest brother had told the flower meant love, adoration and longing, and it seemed fitted enough for who he would give them. jungkook wasn't really fond of the idea of soobin going to hell though, trying to convince the younger otherwise, but he knew he couldn't stop his little brother, not when he was doing it for love. beyond that, the oldest heir had told soobin about an official ball between all kingdoms taking place a week from that day, but the taller decided to worry about it later, already having too much on his mind.

the black haired put the crimson necklace on and grabbed the basket where he had gently placed the flowers, taking a last breath before leaving his room. the thought of finally seeing yeonjun was quite scary, he didn't know how the male would react or if he would simply kick soobin out of the castle with harsh words. it was hard to stay confident and calm, so he didn't force himself into relaxing, holding onto the hope everything would work instead. holding onto the love he believed yeonjun felt for him.

it was unnecessary to say how surprised he got after no guards stopped him from entering hell's castle, and it made his heart flutter the probability of yeonjun never changing the fact he could go in and out as he wished after ending things between them. it meant, as the angel craved to believe, that the king wanted and wished him to go back eventually, as if the harsh goodbye didn't come from his heart.

soobin swallowed the thoughts of curling up and leaving because he wasn't good enough for yeonjun, repeating silently how he had value and how he wasn't an object. the words didn't really reach his mind, it wasn't easy like that after all, but still, he didn't stop walking through the cold hallway that he knew led to the king's room.

a blood fairy with working clothes widened his eyes when seeing the angel, looking to the sides before approaching the male. the fairy had light pink hair and really plump lips, soobin wasn't sure if he had ever seen them before, but he didn't think so, not when the short fairy had a face too pretty to forget.

"excuse me, prince soobin." the said male smiled before nodding his head, signaling for the other to keep talking. "if you're here for your majesty, king daniel, he's not in his room. you should go to his office, in the third floor. i can lead you there if you want."

"that would be great, actually. i've been here so many times but the castle is so big i never managed to know all rooms and halls." soobin let out a quiet chuckle, trying to ignore the anxiety creeping through his mind with the many possibilities of what could happen. "i'm soobin. oh wait, you already know. right. i forget people started to know me after it was discovered i'm from heaven royal family."
