Each other's destiny

16.

Natty's POV:
I woke up from my little nap a few minutes ago.
I'm seated in the middle seat, between Tae and Namjoon.Taehyung is on the right window seat and Namjoon is on the left one.
Tae has his headphones on.
He is leaning his head on the window and his eyes are shut.
He is mouthing the words of the song he is listening to.
Goodness,I'm staring!
I slowly turn my head to the front and catch Suga's eyes in the rearview mirror.
"Are you ok back there?" he asks. His eyes darting back and forth from the road to me in the mirror.
I nod.

He nods back and keeps his eyes on the road.
I

look down and let my head dip low.
My braids fall before me,covering my face.

I look like I'm trying to get into the ground,which I think I am,if it were possible.
I feel like a burden to these guys right now and it's terribly depressing. I hate road trips,they always make me think too much.

Suddenly my braids are being pushed back from my face and something is put in my right ear,an earphone bud.
I know it's Taehyung.
Shortly, a sweet mellow song plays.
Truth Untold.
I slowly turn my head to face him.
My braids fall back on my face.
He pushes them behind my ear this time.
The other bud is in his ear.
His headphones are resting on his neck.
He is looking at me too...assessing me...gauging my expression.
He has a neutral face.
This is not the Tae I'm used to. He looks so serious which is a big contrast from his cheery self.

"....but I still want you"
My heart aches at those words.
Why would he have me listen to this specific song?
Is he trying to tell me something?
He looks away,at the passing scenery outside..buildings,cars,people,occasional trees...no words uttered.
