Don't think of anything. Don't say even a single word. Just smile at me
Yoongi leaned his back to the headboard of the bed, a book long forgotten on his lap. He couldn't take his eyes off of the boy sound asleep next to him. Jimin's hair was fluffy and bright orange on the white pillowcase, messily thrown around his head. Yoongi was almost sure that he had fallen in love with an angel.
I still can't believe it, all of this seems like a dream, please, don't try to disappear
Yoongi gently laid the book onto the ground, bringing his hand closer to Jimin's face and letting in rest on his soft cheek. Jimin leaned into his palm, small hand coming to grasp Yoongi's pale wrist and a satisfied sigh leaving red, plump lips. Yoongi smiled at the fondness of the gesture and softly caressed Jimin's cheek.
Is it true, is it true? You, you, it's too beautiful, so I'm afraid
"You're beautiful, Jiminnie", he whispered to the boy next to him. "You're so beautiful, what do you even see in me? I'm afraid.." Yoongi sighed, sliding down to lay on his side, taking in the breathtaking view of the orange-haired sleeping boy.
Untrue, untrue. You, you, you
Jimin's eyelashes fluttered before he opened those beautiful brown eyes, a sleepy smile on his face. "What?" Yoongi, asked, smiling back, but the other didn't answer. He just cuddled up closer to the older boy, threw his arm over his waist and hid his face into the crook of Yoongi's neck.
Will you stay by my side? Will you promise me? I'm afraid that if I let go of your hand, you'll fly away or shatter. I'm afraid, afraid, afraid
"Please, don't leave", Yoongi mumbled into Jimin's hair, hugging him even closer. "What?" Jimin mumbled back. "Hyung, you're thinking too much again. I'm not going anywhere", he whispered into the skin of Yoongi's neck and Yoongi closed his eyes, breathing in the scent of Jimin.
Will you stop time? If this moment passes, what if it becomes as if nothing ever happened? I could lose you, I'm afraid, afraid, afraid
Yoongi still couldn't believe that it was real, and maybe it wasn't. But right at that moment, Jimin was right there, and Yoongi decided to stop thinking and hug the younger boy like his life depended on him. And maybe it did. And maybe, just maybe, Jimin wouldn't leave after all.
Butterfly, like a butterfly~
