Protected by a ghost ~Vkook~ (Book Two)

Scheme

Taehyung's POV:

My eyes widened when she said that. "What is it, mom? Please tell me." I asked with a hopeful tone.

"You need to go back where it all started, and to go where everything came crashing down." She said with a serious voice, and I furrowed my eyebrows in confusion.

"What does that mean?" I asked, but my answer was the beeping sound coming from the other line, indicating my mom just hung up.

I huffed in frustration and passed my fingers through my hair, trying to find out what am I supposed to do.

'Where it all started' what could that mean?

After few minutes of useless thinking, I stood up and started walking towards our old school. I believed I should visit every place me and Jungkook went to together.

Where we met, it was this school. Today was Sunday, so the school was totally empty.  I walked into the class where we first met, and sat in my usual place. From here, I used to watch Jungkook's every move. I realize now he was doing the same, but his glances were more subtle that mine, I guess.

I remember how he sat next to me for the first time, and protected me from those bullies, and how we grabbed lunch together. And he told me he was 'not into girls'. I was so happy, I never thought our small conversation would lead to all of this.

I kept walking around until I found myself in the hallway, where I thought he had 'left' me, without even saying 'sorry', and I run after him, asking him to 'tell me why'. I remember I was so sad. Until he told me he had cancer, and we had our first kiss.

I then walked to the coffee shop, where Jungkook called me kitten for the first time,  I remember how we ended up running after each other like a bunch of stupid kids,  I remember how I told him to stop running and I'll give him a kiss. I was so happy back then, wasn't I?

I can almost see it in front of my eyes, how he held my hand and we walked back to my uncle's house. It was like a movie replaying before my eyes. And I found myself in the middle of the empty house, which didn't seem to change much. Except the thin layer of dust that covered everything. It was the place where we started 'opening up' to each other.

"Baby, where is my kiss?" I remember him whispering these words in my ear. And the memories were so sweet, so sweet but long forgetton, they were stuck in my mouth like a sweet aftertaste, turning bitter and bitter with every second passing.

I could see us in every corner of the house, running around, cuddling, kissing, nagging. Every corner of this place reminded me of our young selves.

I walked to the bedroom, where we had our 'first time'. I smiled softly at the memories, but then I felt my heart clinching when I remembered Jungkook's 'break down' in this exact same room, exactly six months after we started dating.

I could almost hear his cries, and the deafening sound of the ambulance that came to pick him up, taking him to the 'hospital'.

And there I was, walking towards the place I never thought I would ever visit again. Hospitals are weird, they are full of people who are having the best day of their life, or the worst... The first day of their life, or the last. It was a place where hope gets born or fades away, it was just... A big contradiction.

Because here in this chair, this same chair in front of this hospital room, I cried... From sorrow when Jungkook was dying ...and from happiness when he was saved.

I walked to the hospital's garden, the place that me and Jungkook run to , and he ended up sleeping on my lap, before waking up scared and terrified. Could... could it be he knew I was going to die in this exact same place two years and half later?

I sat on the chair where me and him shared our last kiss, I hope it lasted longer, I hope he just held my hand and stopped me from walking towards that road. In that case, we would still be together right now.

I hope we were still together.

I hope everything could go back to how it was, and me and him will be happy again, like we were before.

Just then, I stood up, and walked towards that same road.

I stood in the middle of it...it was here where I died.

It was here... Where everything came crashing down...

I turned to look at my side, only to see a car racing towards me, I just smiled bitterly... I won't die, it won't hit me this time.

But oh I was wrong...

And again, just like the dream Jungkook had, just like what happened a year ago, the car hit me... And I felt pain... And a hot liquid fluiding out of the old scars on my body...

I fell down on the ground, swimming in the red liquid, pain and life making it impossible for me to breath. I felt like I was dying, and in the same time like I was going back to life...

And I felt the whole world turning to black, and the immense pain slowly fading, as I drifted away, closing my eyes and giving in to the feeling of being...

Reborn.
