A Rose Between Thorns

Chapter 90: Betrayal From My Butterfly

After everything was cleaned up, I decided to turn in for the night. The dream didn't reappear, so I slept soundly for the most part. I did wake up a couple times, but Yoongi was right there beside me the whole time. He claimed he was tired as well, so he ended up joining me. 

I personally think it has more to do with a worry that the nightmare would appear again. Yoongi probably wanted to stay close and see if he could stop it. It was weird to sleep in a room I'm not familiar with, so it took me a bit to fall asleep last night. When I woke up, I honestly forgot where I was.

"Good morning, sweetheart," Yoongi says with a slight drawl to his tone. He must still be tired, I think to myself as I sit up a bit. 

"Good morning. I hope I didn't keep you up too much last night," I respond with a sheepish smile. 

Yoongi shakes his head with a yawn, wrapping his arms around my stomach. "Nah, I can sleep through a lot so don't worry," he says as he closes his eyes. I can't help but smile as I mess with his hair a bit, fixing it up a little. "Anyways, you have work early this morning right?"

"Yeah, we're all heading out to shoot the music video for 'Spring Day' today. The stylists wanted to get me ready ahead of time, they're dying my hair and everything."

"Just be careful," Yoongi narrows his eyes, shifting up beside me. "We know that whoever attacked you is in that profession, is someone going with you?"

"I'm taking Sketch with me," I respond, kissing his cheek before tossing the covers aside. "He'll be heading back with Taehyung's parents after this whole ordeal is over too, so I want to spend as much time with him as I can."

Yoongi grumbles a bit, holding onto me even tighter. "Five more minutes?" the little meow meow says in a cute yet tired voice. He looks up at me with what I can only call puppy eyes, even pouting a little bit. Oh lord, focus Taylor! Don't let him convince you, you've got work to do!

It's been a half hour and I still haven't gotten my ass up.

I couldn't help it! He's just so cuddly, I almost ended up falling asleep again as we laid there. Normally Yoongi is pretty quiet when it's just us two, leaving me to fill the silence. But this time, I got to be on the receiving end. "Manager Sejin still hasn't given us the list of songs we'll be doing for our next set of concerts, but they should be sometime in October," Yoongi says with a bright smile. "You remember the song I showed you before? Well, we finally got it done, and we'll most likely be performing it around then."

"Really? So then we'll be able to release the album soon, right?" I ask, to which the little meow meow nods.

"Yeah, so we have to start recording as soon as possible," he says, running a hand through his hair. "We already have the line distributions done so all that's left is to get to work. We also have two tracks that are going on the mini album, 'Spring Day' is one of them. The other one we still have to finish line distributions for."

"Well, why wait?" I ask as I shift a bit, grabbing my crutches from beside the nightstand. "Can I see the lines I'll be given? I want to be able to practice in my free time."

"Are you sure?" Yoongi asks, finally letting me go with a raised brow. "I would have thought you'd want to relax while you have time."

"I'd prefer to keep busy, the more I work now the easier it'll be once I'm healed," I reply, hobbling over to my closet. "I'll be mainly focusing on catching up with the choreography then."

"Fair enough. We can talk to the others during breakfast and pass the lyrics around. Everyone got to listen to the songs like you did, so the others probably also have an idea of what lines they have."
