"What did she say? Is she okay?"
I asked the boy who hung up on the line with Minrae. Jungkook raised an eyebrow and started scanning me like I was some sort of a museum piece. He then sided his head to the right with huge round eyes before asking me questions of his own.
"She is fine dude. And what are you doing here? Are you like a fairy too?"
"A what now?"
"I should have known since you and that smart looking dude were working together" he answered himself. "Are you like immortal or something too?"
"So, you know our identity?"
"Here we go again" he said with an eye roll. "I just saw a man wingardium leviosa my partner into thin air. So, I don't know dude? Just a wild guess maybe!"
"Don't get easy on me, kid. If you know what Jimin is capable of and just with that small trick of his that tiny little feet of yours are trembling in fear" I spoke, walking towards the boy who was still shaking from what he had witnessed. "Then I very well don't need to introduce myself and the things I can do to you"
Jungkook gulped in sudden panic and he was already on his way to the door, walking backwards, not leaving his sight of me. He is my human to tame and I was only beginning to reap the fun out of it. There were a million things I had envisioned to make him do. And I wanted to start with his arrogance, that will get his father to fully give up on him. Or maybe just multiply his addiction to money and his cards to a point he will choose path to alcohol and drugs. The possibilities were endless yet so thrilling.
All of this only if he wasn't being influenced by her as well. The party pooper. The ultimate fairy godmother. The only obstacle between him and my master plan for his hell like future.
"What is happening? Where is she?" a familiar voice spoke when the door was flung open by force. Four individuals had moved inside the room and closed the door behind them. Even if years have gone by from when we had last met, they still radiate the same god damn ponies and glitter energy. Good and positive energy basically. Makes me sick to the stomach every time.
"Of course, the entire circus is here" I announced.
"Nice to meet you too, Yoongi" Jin spoke with an annoyed face. He then completely ignored me and searched everywhere near Minare's hospital bed.
"I had taken her here, Taehyung" he said, moving the sheet before locking eyes with me. "What did you do!"
"Excuse me? What did I do you ask!?" I started with an annoyed tune. "I am not responsible for what happens to the human girl" I continued, a feeling of anger consuming me at his conclusions.
"I thought I told you to keep an eye on her" Jin now questioned the only human in the room who looked absolutely petrified. I'm kind of impressed at how the kid is handling all this. He surprisingly is more courageous than I thought. However well he may have dealt with such situations, currently he looked like he could piss his pants. I mean, it is one human and five celestial beings in a room. I wouldn't blame him.
"Um, well, the dude in the godown may have kind of demonnapped her" he said with an awkward smile, extending the use of the words 'kind of' a little more than the rest words he used to describe the situation. Jungkook even connected his index fingers together next to his chin, looking at Jin with guilt ridden eyes.
"You had one job" Jin replied, shaking his head in disbelief.
"I'm going to find her"
"No, Taehyung, she is safe with Jimin. Remember he had consumed a bit of Minare's energy? It will prevent him from causing her any harm since he needs her to be beside him inorder to let his body fully heal"
"That explains why he had come up here so unexpectedly" I responded. It all made sense. However, Jimin taking life from a good-hearted human didn't make any sense.
"Hold up, if Jimin consumed her energy, does that mean-"
"Yes, he is probably back to his normal self before losing his wings. He hopefully has lost his anger issues as well" Jin responded.
"Yes, Jin hyung, and if he is back to his normal self, then we have even more reasons to find the both of them. I'm going to look for her" Taehyung retorted, putting on his jacket.
"Why?" I asked. If Jimin had been able to recover from years of punishment, then wasn't it only good that he was free from that miserable side of him. What was so bad about his normal self that Taehyung was so worried about. But now that he answered, his concerns were worth the worry.
"Park Jimin is a full-time flirt"
MÂ Â IÂ Â NÂ Â RÂ Â AÂ Â E
I didn't realize what kind of task I had got myself into tonight, until Jimin made it all the more obvious for me with his dense and clueless expressions at every passing by vehicle. He had his jaw drop at the speed each car had passed by as we stood next to the pedestrian cross.
"What-"
"They are cars, Jimin. They take us from place to place"
"They look hideous" Jimin made a disgusted face before saying. "Horses are more majestic"
"Let's get back to the hospital. We will get you clothes tomorrow. It's getting really late now"
"But I still have a lot to learn, darling"
"You can't possibly learn everything in one day"
We stayed on the other side of the pedestrian cross and waited for the road to be clear, or at least that's what I did. The man beside me had already started tapping his feet on the floor restlessly. Jimin looked around and came at me with a confused expression.
"Why are we not moving?" he asked.
"Because the signal-JIMIN WAIT!" He usually patiently waits for me to complete explaining him things, but the man grew restless waiting on one side of the road and decided to march forward. I panicked and yelled his name but he gave no care.
"Look out!" I yelled and started running to his side when I realized he was walking right to a huge truck that was coming his way.
Though I wanted to run faster, my feet suddenly became numb. It was the two headlights of the trucks, racing towards Jimin. My mouth fell dry under my tongue and it was all coming back to me again. Every bit of the memories started running in my head and my knees fell weak at the thought, landing my body on the cold and hard pavement floor. I held my head tightly with both my hands when the beeping noise had started, ringing in my ear like a siren. I was traumatized. Every part of my body familiarized with the past, shivering in fear at the thought of my death. It was as if I was the one who was standing there. My voice started breaking up and I couldn't call for Jimin anymore.
There was no way a truck that huge was going to be able to see Jimin's arrogant ass walk past the pedestrian cross. I watched everything with horror in my eyes that was tearing up to see him walking straight to his doom.
But just then he had noticed what was happening. The Demon raised his hand forward while standing right in front of it and screamed on top of his lungs for it to stop.
"Stop you beast" he yelled. Me and the few people standing on the other side of the road was a witness to all of this. And to my surprise, the truck stopped at his command.
I watched as Jimin overflew with mad happiness.
"Ha! The hideous beast obeys" he proclaimed, looking proud. "You have trained your beast well, human" he added, praising the truck driver who looked confused beyond dimensions and I could only thank all the heavens and hell for making the signal red in time.
I cannot believe my eyes had to witness this. What have I done to deserve this. Everyone else just walked by minding their own business, talking about the weird dude in the middle of the street under their breaths. Few even clicked pictures and videos. It was only a matter of time before he becomes famous on social media for stopping a truck with his mere hand and the traffic signal having nothing to do with it at all.
"Did you see that-" Jimin looked at me with a smile, but it slowly disappeared when he saw in what condition he found me in. It only took a matter of seconds for him to rush towards me and hold me by my shoulder.
"Are you okay?" his voice was soft and so was the look in his eyes. There was genuine concern looming in him and he gently tried to pull me up.
"I'm okay, I just tripped. What about you? Are you hurt or something?" I asked, scanning him when I was able to finally stand on my feet with his help.
"Are you kidding me? Did you not see how I single handedly tamed that beast"?
"Truck"
"Is that her name?"
When he asked that question with an innocent and confused face, I couldn't help but chuckle at his silliness. How is a Demon ascending from hell capable of being this cute? Am I tripping?
"You seem so different, Jimin. Ever since the last time I saw you, you seem like a different person. Do you have a twin by any chance?"
"You keep saying that" he laughed, almost looking sad. "Is it that bad? Does this side of me seem pathetic?" he asked again, his eyes giving out the disappointment he felt in himself.
"No, god no, you're fine. It's just, I didn't know you could even smile till today. Its nice to see" I confirmed.
"I'll tell you why it happened, though I doubt you will believe me" he started, a hand running behind his neck feeling stressed.
"What?"
"It's because you shared your energy with me" he started, looking at me so intensely, not even blinking. "When you allowed me to take a part of your soul, what it meant was for you to share your energy with me. Usually we Demons feed on the dark energy of a human, it makes us stronger and more invincible"
"But at that moment, you were my only chance of survival and you chose to help me. It was risky since your energy was pure and good. So, when you gave me that energy, rather than growing powerful, you calmed me" he continued.
"You helped me gain back my conscious that was trapped in a lane of punishments and misery. And now my energy balances out with yours. Which is why I have to be beside you at all cost until I can make sure my body has completely healed off your energy"
There was so much to take in. Things made sense at the same time it didn't. Just like how you think it's the chicken that first came, but then the egg is the freaking featus. Unless one of the gods decided to drop in their meal from the sky, which is highly unlikely.
"But I thought if you don't feed then you will become insane and grow stronger, destroying everything around you"
"Is that what Taehyung told you?" I nodded.
"It is partially true. However, I am a Demon who lost his wings. There might be a few minutes where my powers grow stronger and insane. But it will only last seconds until I completely die of pain"
"Die? You are not immortal?"
"I am, although it will not be long until I have my wings back. I'm being punished to live to know the consequences of my actions. You might not know but, for us our wings are like our pride and glory. It manifests every power in our blood. Without it, I'm not as powerful or worthy of my title"
"So now what?"
"I have to be with you at all times. My energy will drop if not"
"Weeks have gone by since I last saw you, and now you need my presence?"
"Well, I chose not to, especially after seeing Taehyung acting like a complete asshole, which he is by the way, love. But that was until I realized I have to find a way to gain back my wings anyways, and you are the only option I have. So now you are stuck with me, like it or not"
"So, we have to like stay beside each other"
"I see you have plans for me already, darling. Or should say baby in your words that is" he teased. I knew he was going to bring it up somehow.
When Jimin was done explaining, my attention shifted to the road and I continued to observe the vehicles that passed by us. Just then, I noticed someone very angry, glaring at the both of us from the other side of the road, but I couldn't really tell who it was until the signal had stopped the traffic. And it was none other than a very displeased Taehyung.
Jimin noticed his presence. There was a minute of the usual staring competition between the two, before Jimin had slid his fingers into mine, connecting our hands. My eyes enlarged in confusion before shooting him with questions.
"What are you-"
"You're right, it's getting late" Jimin spoke, tightening the grip on my hand and not leaving his piercing stare that he shared with the angel, which only made Taehyung tighten his jaw even more. What I didn't expect was a very senile smirk that smoothly ran up Jimin's lips after which he took a second to look me in the eye as he continued to speak.
"Let's go sleep, darling"
