Always together. Finding each other in every lifetime. Their souls destined for each other for eternity. Sometimes as friends. Sometimes as lovers. Sometimes as spouses. Always together. Until around two hundred years ago, when the Queen vanished. The Warriors: Poet, Misdirection, Ferocious, Watcher, Mischief, Adventure and Passion, continued to find each other, always accomplishing great things in their lives. In their current lives, they’ve found each other and created the biggest boy band in the world. When their Queen is found, and The Eight souls are re-united, they have to figure out how to live, and love, together again.
Chapter 23
She had gone to all of their interviews over the last couple of weeks, and had found ways to stay hidden and out of the way, while staying close enough to appease Sejong. Today was no different. She listened as they danced around questions about her and which members were the husbands. Although the world now knew Seokjin was not one of them, since he was with her when they got that note. She also heard that the social media sites were going crazy with their guesses and conspiracies about it all. If only it was as interesting as they made it sound, she scoffed. She spends all day everyday mostly bored out of her mind. The actual concert was fun. But being told to sit and be good every day was a bit much.
As usual, there were crowds of people everywhere as they left the last interview of the day. Security was pushing them through the crowd, and they had to stop to get the SUV doors opened. In that moment, The Muse looked to the side and saw a child. A boy around the same age as her son. He looked so similar. Her heart broke right then and there. Her boy. He looked like her boy. Her boy that she wasn’t allowed to see. Her boy that she wasn’t allowed to know. Her boy that she was told to forget about. Her boy. It was all she could do to hold the tears at bay until she was safely in the vehicle. She had no idea who she was in the car with. All she saw was her son’s face. All she heard was his laugh. All she could do right then was cry. There was no holding it in or controlling the grief. She had her arms wrapped around her chest and had folded herself down so her head was near her knees.
Jimin and Jungkook were confused and, to be honest, scared of the sobbing woman. They had no idea what had happened. She seemed fine when they were inside. What happened?
She wasn’t responding to any of them. Locked inside her head with memories of her boy. Her heart. Jungkook called Seokjin in a panic. Hoping he’d be able to calm her, or at least tell them how.
“You need to touch her,” he told them “Touch heals her physically and emotionally. You don’t need to say anything. Just touch her.”
Jungkook moved, sitting in the seat next to her, he wrapped his arm around her. Rubbing what he hoped were comforting circles on her back. Soon enough she had quieted down. Even sitting up to rest her head on his shoulder with his arm still around her.
Only a few tears were escaping by the time they made it to the stadium. Still, she didn’t talk.
They all got out of the SUV, her eyes on the ground, following them blindly to their dressing rooms. Seokjin arrived shortly after they did, and came straight for her. He didn’t ask any questions, just picked her up and sat her on his lap. She curled up like a child and nestled her face into the crook of his neck. All of her Warriors were seated around them when he finally asked “What happened, Yeppeun? What caused such tears on your lovely face?”
She took a deep breath, wiped a few stray tears away and answered, “As we were leaving, I saw a little boy in the crowd. He looked so much like,” she paused, trying to hold in another round of sobs, “Like my son.” Seokjin tightened his hold around her, kissing her forehead.
“Oh, Yeppeun! I am so sorry.”
“Wait.” Said Yoongi, “You had a son?” She nodded as more tears fell.
“Sejong took you away from a child?” asked Jungkook, looking horrorstuck.
Hoseok was looking at them curiously. “You have never actually had a conversation with her have you? My god, Yoongi. And you, Tae. You both have spent time with her. Did you not talk at all? Are you not curious about our Queen?” Before any of them could argue or try to defend themselves, The Muse spoke, “Sejong says ‘you will bear many children for your husbands’ like that will fix everything. It won’t! There will always be a hole where my son should be. He even gave me a vision of our lives together in the future. It is a beautiful moment in time. So serene and full of love. And children. Jesus, there are a ton of children. Which is great, don’t get me wrong! I will be happy to have your babies, but that won’t fix that part of my heart.”
Taehyung spoke up, asking “You have seen our future?”
“A moment of it, yes.” she answered, wiping a tear away.
“Can you show me?” He was looking at her with such hope and curiosity.
“I will be able to, yes, once our souls are reconnected.” He nodded at her answer, with even more excitement and anticipation for that to happen coursing through him.
Sejin and a few of the other managers came in with their food. It was time to focus on the task at hand. It took a little time, but She was feeling much better when it was show time, thanks to Seokjin and Jungkook. Tonight, as they had the night before, Seokjin, Namjoon and Hoseok came to her for their good luck kisses. But tonight, unlike the night before, the rest of her Warriors came to her for their good luck kisses, too. All on the cheek, and all happy to have them.
The concert was just as exciting to watch as the night before. The energy they put out is incredible. And the energy sent back at them from Army is just as intense. She was surprised they didn’t pass out from exhaustion immediately afterward. Like the night before, they were all being tended to before heading back to the hotel. And like the night before, Jimin’s neck was sore. This time, though, he called for her, “Yeppeun?” she turned her head, surprised to hear his voice calling her. “Will you rub my neck again? It is sore.”
She nodded, smiling at him as she went to help her Warrior.
in flirting, Hoseok likes to deal with a person who is expressive and willing to live the beginning of love in a fun, light way. his song "Just Dance" explains it all: he wants to live the moments with the person, enjoying the vibe. he likes to feel like he's having fun and having a good time with that person. sex and dating is lived in a more playful way. he is passionate. he flirts with his heart.
7th house in Libra
for a more serious relationship, he ends up wishing for a more harmonious, patient person, who is loving and able to be there trying to make the relationship work even in the face of complicated situations. he is caring and romantic. he tends to suit the needs of the partner.

Content below the cut
Ji-eun (RM’s girlfriend)
Ji-eun would put a lot of thought into her Christmas presents and is someone who would actually put a lot of importance on the big day itself. As someone with a busy, stressful job, she would allow Christmas to be a time where she, for once, puts everything down and can enjoy spending quality time with those she loves. We also think Christmas would be a time which takes her back to her childhood and reminds her of happier, easier times. While keeping things fairly minimal and classic, she would like decorating a tree and the home a few days prior, especially if Namjoon was with her to help. She would also enjoy the more domestic aspects of cooking the dinner and wrapping presents, which is something she might not usually get time to do at other times of the year.
For a gift, she wouldn’t mind spending quite a lot of money on a thoughtful present for Namjoon but would not go too overboard. It would be more about the gift itself than the money spent, so if she did find something cheaper but which she knew he would like, she would go for that. She would not be afraid to put the time and research into finding something he would love. Gifts would include a timeless but unique watch, art prints or original paintings and coffee table books on art and architecture; something that would look good in the home as well as being informative. As they enjoy travelling together, visiting historical landmarks and museums, she would have a good idea on the type of art or architecture he is interested in, and it would be a bonus if she too enjoyed it, so they could find out more together. She would love cuddling up with him in the evening, both full from their dinner, and reading the book she bought him together with a glass of mulled wine.
Min-seo (Jin’s wife)
Min-seo and Jin would both get very excited about Christmas in the weeks leading up to it. Of all the members they would start their Christmas shopping and decorating the earliest, especially once they become parents. They would love putting together the tree as a family, as well as handmaking some of the decorations. She would find a lot of sentimental value in the baubles they made and would keep them safe every year; reminding them both of their early years as a family. They would cook the dinner together, with Jin most likely taking the lead, and would spend the day seeing to family and friends; finally able to spend some family time together in the evening watching a film or playing with the new toys given to Eun-ju.
Min-seo is most likely to get Jin something personalised, such as a family album or picture frame with photos of them and their daughter, engraved keyrings or a wallet with his name on it along with a special message. She would also buy gifts to him from their daughter. He would definitely have a ‘best dad’ mug lying around the house. Jin would also be most likely to dress as Santa for their daughter while giving her the presents. Min-seo would find it really fun and goofy, but we could imagine baby Eun-ju might be a bit frightened at first, not recognising her dad under the fake beard, and would cry until he lifted it and reassured her.
Jeong-sun (Suga’s wife)
While they would not go overboard, Yoongi and Jeong-sun would make the effort to get in the festive spirit by putting up a tree in the days leading up to Christmas. Neither are particularly artistic or enthusiastic when it comes to decorating, so we could see it looking a bit pathetic and bare; which they would both find hilarious. We think they both would feel that Christmas was more about other people, so they would make the effort to see their family and friends in the morning; going around to those they could to drop off presents.They would also be most thankful if they were invited around to someone else’s for Christmas dinner, such as Min-seo and Jin’s or Nana and Hoseok’s as they wouldn’t have to think about cooking and would appreciate the company for a few hours.
If they weren’t invited anywhere, they would make the dinner together, with Jeong-sun taking on the less arduous tasks of chopping the vegetables and making the stock for gravy. While they would undoubtedly end up making too much food for just the two of them, they would find a lot of unexpected joy in doing something like this together; sipping wine while preparing the food and finding themselves quite giggly and merry by the time it is finished. There might be a small kitchen disaster such as burning the meat or setting a teatowel on fire, but since neither have expectations of having ‘the perfect day’, anything which went wrong would not stress them out. Later in their relationship, it would be more likely that with Jeong-sun as a nurse, she might not be able to have Christmas day off work. In this case, they wouldn’t be against having a less traditional Christmas dinner together in the evening which was easier to make.
While they would buy gifts for each other, neither would go overboard or buy anything too expensive. They are more likely to buy each other something thoughtful and practical, but that they wouldn’t necessarily get themselves. Jeong-sun would leave anything too technical he might need (such as music equipment, headphones etc.) to him, since she wouldn’t know where to start. Instead, she’s likely to get him something for the kitchen he might want but does not have, such as a new rice cooker, or something useful like the thermos travel mug she bought him for his birthday one year. If she was struck on what to get him, a nice, well-reviewed but not overly expensive bottle of single malt scotch would be her go-to gift. She knows he would be grateful and they would like sharing the first glass together in the evening as they curled up on the sofa together, half-watching a Christmas film and chatting about nothing in particular.
Nana (J-Hope’s girlfriend)
As a teacher, Nana would be in the festive mood quite a while before the actual big day, having made cards and ornaments with her class. She would love spending the day with Hoseok, dedicating some time in the morning to phoning or visiting family before preparing the dinner together with her boyfriend. They would be most likely to steer away from the traditional Christmas lunch and instead try out a new recipe. Since they are both toying around with veganism, they would look up the instructions beforehand, enjoying going grocery shopping together in search of the ingredients, and experimenting in the kitchen on the big day. Hoseok would turn into a child again as they exchanged gifts - having hand made each other cards, Christmas ornaments and decorations. Of course, there would also be a lot of decorations made by her pupils, and she would love telling him stories about the kids as they hung each one on their tree. They might also derive from the traditional Christmas tree and decorate a big plant she already had in the apartment. They would also love wreath-making together; having undoubtedly gone to a class at some point in their relationship and making a tradition of doing so again at home together each year. They would view Christmas as a time for loved ones and sharing, so would eagerly invite others over for dinner if they thought it might make the day more special for them.
We think they would make a habit of buying each other a festive-themed flowers as a gift, as Hoseok would love receiving bouquets just as much as Nana, and she would also buy him something practical but unique, such as a vegan-leather satchel, wallet or keyring she bought from a small, local business or seller online. She would also not be against buying him a new shirt or two in bright, bold colours and fun prints, knowing they will always come in useful.
Ara (Jimin’s girlfriend)
Jimin and Ara would put a lot of effort into spending the big day together with their busy schedules and would want everything to be perfect. They would love shopping for decorations and a new tree each year and might have several around their apartment, including a pink, artificial one in the bedroom. They would choose a different theme each year and pick their decorations accordingly. They would also love getting in the mood in the days prior; drinking cocoa, watching Christmas films and hand-making Christmas cards for their friends and family. They would attempt the perfect Christmas dinner together, with them both taking equal responsibility in the preparing and cooking. They would enjoy spending the whole day alone together, with everything very carefully planned and orchestrated, from opening the presents when they wake up, to unwinding in the evening. Because of this, if someone went wrong or did not go according to plan, they could both get quite flustered and upset as they have put so much time, effort and mental energy into the day.
Ara would have a good sense of Jimin’s fashion taste and is likely to pick him a few clothes and accessories as gifts such as a nice designer shirt, a new tie or a warm but fashionable scarf which would go with anything. She would be most likely to also put a lot of effort into wrapping the gifts, selecting the wrapping paper, gift tags and ribbons carefully.
Cassandra (V’s girlfriend)
Taehyung and Cassandra would be most likely to argue over how to spend the big day as they would both have their own Christmas traditions and idea of what makes the perfect day. This would undoubtedly become even more tense once Gabriel is born, as they would need to plan how to give him the best day they could, while also orchestrating the fact they need to agree on a plan. Although they have broken up at the time he is born, Taehyung would want to spend most of the day with them, trying their best to give him a ‘normal family’ Christmas. Cassandra would not object to this, but might need to put her foot down at certain ideas. They are both incredibly stubborn but would reach some kind of agreement or compromise in the end including who should cook and what. Taehyung, regardless, would make himself useful and ensure he brings plenty of food and drink and change and feed Gabriel when Cassandra is busy doing other things.
While Taehyung’s gifts to both Cassandra and Gabriel would always be elaborate and expensive; with a lot of thought and individuality going into what he thinks they would like, we think Cassandra would be less likely to spend a lot of money on Taehyung but still get him something she knows he would love. This would always be the case, even prior to having the baby, as she knows he would always appreciate the thoughtfulness of the gift over the cost. She has the best idea of anyone what his taste in fashion, art and music is, so would be able to buy him something he would really love. Vintage records, antique curios and second-hand but quirky accessories would be among things she would buy him. She would also like to get him something useful but still within his taste, such as a William Morris printed glasses case or artfully designed stationary. Of all the couples, we feel Taeyung and Cassandra are the most comfortable in buying the other something they know they will love.
Young-soon (Jungkook’s girlfriend)
Jungkook and Young-soon would be most likely to enjoy spending Christmas with their families, so would visit both sets of parents during the day and alternate each year who they had Christmas dinner with. They would both help out with the cooking and would prepare a dish or dessert beforehand they could take with them. While they enjoy spending time together as a couple, they would get more out of being part of a bigger family and might even arrange for both sides of the family to meet as one. They would love watching people open their gifts and seeing their reactions. While they would decorate their apartment, they wouldn’t go too extreme as they wouldn’t be spending a lot of time actually at home.
Young-soon would find it quite hard to think of the perfect gift for Jungkook, mostly because his interests are quite vague or something better suited for his band members to buy him. She wouldn’t really know where to start when it came to, for example, getting him a video game he liked as he would game alone. Likewise, music equipment would be best left for Yoongi to gift him as she wouldn’t have the first idea of what would be of good quality. She knows he would love and appreciate her gift either way, so would be more likely to go for something quite traditional that he could wear for date nights or special occasions such as a nice quality tie pin or set of cufflinks. She would ensure to visit a tailors or high-end designer to get the best quality and with the best metals, and would choose something that would last and that he could keep forever.

╰You find yourself upset and sad, as you sit alone in the night thinking about where things have gone wrong, when a mysterious stranger appears..
a/n: Hey lovely readers! 💞 I'm back with something new.~ The idea for this little baby came to life while I listened to ‘moonchild’ (duhhh.. who would have thought 🙄). It’s based on the english lyrics of said song.✨ The beginning might feel a bit rushed, but that’s due to it not really being THAT relevant to the story, I hope its still okay, though >_< I hope you enjoy reading it as much as I enjoyed writing this! 💓
Start reading!

‘Y/n I’m sorry, but we can’t.. I can’t. You’ve been my best friend all these years, I just... I just can’t see you as a lover. I’m sorry, I think we should take a break for a while..’
You're staring down on your phone, reading the message over and over again, asking yourself how you could have been stupid enough to tell your best friend about your feelings.
Your body feels heavy under the weight of emotions.
Being at home feels so suffocating to you right now- it always does when you feel sad, hurt.
You always flee outside, drowning your feelings by taking in the night, sitting by the river close to your house. Honestly? That place is beautiful, which is probably the reason why you always go there when you’re not feeling alright. It’s a shame that not many people seem to know that place, but on the other hand, it’s a gift, because like that, you can be alone with your thoughts and tears.
Your feet slip into your shoes and your hand reaches for the keys, and gone you are. Quickly you walk down the stairs and swing open the door to escape into the night.
It takes you about ten minutes until your way finds the river, but when you arrive you can’t help the small smile that’s dancing along your lips. No matter how bad things are, coming here always heals a bit of what's been hurting within you. You take a deep breath of the fresh air and let yourself fall onto the grass, laying flat on your back. Gazing into the night sky, your eyes wander over the dozens of stars, the constellations and over the moon. Up high it stands and shines in all its glory.
’How beautiful’ you say to yourself as your thoughts find its way back to your best friend and small drops of tears start rolling down the side of your face, softly.
Why does love have to be such a painful thing? Or more, why did your heart have to choose your best friend?
You bring your hand up to your chest, resting it right over where your heart is, as if it would bring some sort of soothing to the pain. The wind is calmly playing with the blades of grass and you listen to the faint city noises, in the distance quiet footsteps.
„Why the sad face?“ a voice reaches out to you.
Caught off guard you quickly brace yourself on your elbows and shoot your head around, searching for the person behind the words that just reached your ears.
Your gaze falls on a tall guy that’s smiling down on you. Hastily you wipe away the tears from your cheeks and then you only blink in confusion.
„I’m sorry“ he laughs softly. „I didn’t mean to scare you.“
„It’s- uhm.. it’s okay.“ you mumble flabbergasted. „Can I help you?“ you add.
„Clearly, I should be the one asking. What is a girl doing outside alone at this time, and on top of that, why is said girl crying?“
What’s with him? You are so confused. Why does he care? He doesn’t even know you, so why?
Still quiet, you continue staring at him, dumbfounded.
A breathy laughter leaves the mans lungs. „May I?“ he asks as he points to the ground, indicating that he wants to sit down next to you. You nod in response.
„Beautiful night, isn’t it?“ Your head turns to face the scenery, however, his gaze is fixed on you, though, you come to realize that as you look back to where he sits.
„Yeah, absolutely.“ you say, sarcasm coating your tone in a thick layer.
„Can I guess?“ he asks carefully. Watching you as you nod your head, he goes on.
„Your heart got broken today, didn’t it?“
Your mouth falls open. How does he know? I mean, sure, you were crying, but that could have had many reasons.
„Uhm, how did you know?“
„I just did.“ he shrugs with a grin. „Your face, it’s telling me a story.“ There’s something about the way he looks at you, something about that calm smile his lips wear and something about the soft and genuine vibe his eyes radiate. Something that makes you feel that whatever you might say, he would just listen, that he wouldn’t judge, that he doesn’t mean any harm. Debating for a second, you come to the conclusion that you want to talk about it. What’s the worst that could happen? You’d get it off of your chest and on top of that, you might end up with some advice.
„You’re right. I got my heart broken. Actually, I got rejected.“ you say, a sigh leaving your mouth along with the words you speak.
„And so you went outside to cry, alone, at your secret place, hm?“ he’s slowly nodding as he answers, as if he’s analyzing what you said, finding his own -pretty accurate, what a clever dude- conclusion to why you’re here.
„That pretty much sums it up, yeah“ you say, lips a thin line, eyebrows raised.
„Are you sad?“
„What do you mean ,are you sad‘? You caught me crying, what to you think that was for?“ you shoot back at him which leads to him laughing out loud.
„You're right, you're right, my bad. So, what's the story behind your rejection? Who was it?“ the way he asks for what has happened is so sincere, you can immediately feel that he's not asking out of pity.
„Well. He is-, was, my best friend, we've been super close for many years, and things went just really good, and I developed feelings for him and I thought so did he, he really seemed like it. Turns out I was wrong and now, I quote ,we should take a break for a while‘. So, yeah. Pretty mainstream, the usual. Just... it's still so fresh. It hurts. I regret that I did it, my gut feeling told me it's wrong and still I did it and now I lost my best friend. It really, really hurts. Why did I do that? Am I out of my mind?“
„Let me stop you right there, moonchild.“
„Moonchild?“ you blink in confusion.
„Yeah. It seems like you like the night as much as I do, and I do not know your name, so I figured that's how I'll call you for now.“ he explains, clearly proud of what he came up with. There's a smile tugging at your lips as you listen to him explaining.
„So, you do have feelings for him, right?“
„Obviously, I'd say.“
„Then why do you regret telling him?“
„Because now I lost him as a friend and ruined what we had, it felt good to get it off my chest, of course but-”
„See! Thats exactly how you need to think. Positive. It felt good. Sometimes there is no sunshine without having felt the rain before. The rain might be cold and painful at times, but sometimes, we've got to dance in the rain, dance in the pain. Even if we know that things go wrong, that we will crash down, we gotta dance in the plane. It's okay to feel hurt and sad after getting rejected, of course. It's okay to shed the tears, but don't you tear yourself, don't regret things. Whatever you do, you do it for a reason.“
During his speech he began to lean in and to wildy gesture along with his hands as he spoke, which is why his face is now a lot closer to you, and you're now able to actually see it, see him. And honestly? You're not even surprised. He looks just like he behaves. Blonde hair thats been purposefully styled a bit messy, soft eyes, kind of hooded, what makes him look pretty mysterious. His lips are plump and his cheeks have a slight chubby touch. Suddenly a bit overexcited, deep dimples decorate his wide smile as he recognizes damn well that you're taking him in right now.
„You’re beautiful too.” he says sweetly.
„I didn’t compliment you?” you respond while cocking an eyebrow.
„You might not have said it, but you thought it.”
Snorting a laughter, you’re hitting his shoulder.
He leans back as he braces himself on his hands, legs crossed.
He’s not wrong, though. He does indeed look very good.
„You know what? You’re right, I did think that you are handsome.”
His smile disappears and his eyebrows shoot up. You clearly caught him off-guard with your bold response. Blinking in confusion a couple times, he seems like he’s processing what you just said. Seconds later, a genuine smile returns to his face and his features melt into the softest expression you’ve ever seen.
„Thank you.” Even his voice is dripping honey as he appreciates your compliment with his whole heart.
„Don’t you hear that a lot?” you question, his reaction stirring up some suspicion in you.
He decides not to answer, only looking at you with a slight smile.
You’re getting the hint and drop the topic.
„I wonder why I got rejected. You’re right, I shouldn’t regret anything if it comes to telling him, but still, I wonder why he doesn’t like me back the same way.”
„Who knows, he might just not be ready for something serious.” the guy says and shrugs. „I would like to know that reason, too.”
You cock one eyebrow and lock eyes with him. It takes him a good minute of silence to figure out what he just said, but mimicking your bold move, he flat out speaks his mind.
„It can’t be your looks or your personality, based off from what I’ve seen so far of course, if you ask me.”
Seconds pass as you just stare at each other, and then the both of you rip apart the silence, filling it with laughter. You like this guy. You’re happy you went here tonight again. You’re happy you’ve met him. Right now, he’s good for your soul, good for your heart. The words he speaks, the energy he radiates, the soothing his deep but smooth voice causes, the smiles he gifts you -oh these smiles. Everything he’s done so far is making you feel better and you can’t even express how thankful you are for that.
„Look, I don’t know you, moonchild. But I think that he’ll regret it at some point. Your personality seems genuine and warm, and even if there is something to you that might be bad, that’s also okay. That’s who you are. You need to see yourself as something beautiful. For example, a rose. It’s beautiful and proud, and it radiates such strong power when you look at it. But if you want to have that beautiful thing, if you want to make it yours, you have to remember that the rose has thorns as well. You will get hurt if you touch them, but once you pass them, you get to the wonderful part that’s blooming majestically above all these thorns. To you or a lot of people, the thorns of your personality might be ugly, something they don’t want to be confronted with. But someone will be consoled by looking at your thorns, for sure.” His face is serious, his eyes piercing into your soul. You feel as if you’ve just lost the ability to breathe.
„Really, where are you taking all these advices from? What have you been through, that you can state such things?” you ask with a hint of admiration in your voice.
„Let’s say I have been through a long process of finding myself and my worth, little one.” he answers with the smallest of smiles. „So. yeah, my little moonchild. Don’t cry, but shine.”
For a while there’s nothing but silence, and none of you is breaking the eye contact that’s been going on for a suspicious amount of time, seemingly lost in the eyes of the strangers that you both are to each other.
However, he’s the one snapping out of it first, checking the time on his phone and then getting up.
„I should get going.” he says while brushing over his pants to straighten them and remove any possible dirt.
You feel the strong urge to meet him again. Everything he’s saying, everything he’s making you feel is out of this world for you; never has anyone done this to you, and you are sure that he doesn’t even know what an impact he’s having on you, approaching you as you were a complete stranger, and still feeling the need to cheer you up when he found you crying.
Your mind is discussing back and forth with itself if you should ask him about it when the process gets interrupted by his hand on your head, softly caressing your hair.
„Take care, okay?” he smiles. His hand leaves your head and he turns around to find his way to wherever he’s going now, but your sudden decision to shoot your shot stops him before he could even start walking.
„Will I see you again, sometime, somewhere? Here maybe? If yes, when?” you murmur shyly as you watch him turning back around to face you. His eyes are searching the sky for a second, and then he’s looking back at you with an expression that could melt hearts, smiling ever so softly while pointing to the bright white planet thats shining in all its grace.
„When moon rises. That’s our time, little one.” he says and turns around, this time leaving.
You’re so taken in by the guy that you don’t know why you’ve wasted the time you had with him talking over your best friend that rejected you. You know nothing about him, neither where he comes from, how old he is, what he likes, his hobbies, nor his name- his name! You at least want to know his name.
You suddenly feel so empowered to ask, that you jump up on your feet and yell out - adrenaline at its best, always coming at the right time.
„Your name! What’s your name?” you shout in his direction, silhouette still clearly visible. He swiftly turns around on one foot but keeps walking backwards, hands in his pockets.
