Fake stars plastered to the ceiling of your room - they brought some semblance of magic to your life when you were a kid.Β
Staring up at them, you used to pretend to see constellations in their random placements, but now you count them over and over as you wait.
Even though your lights are turned off and the sheets are pulled up over your body, you wonβt be sleeping tonight. At least, not until youβve seen him.Β Β
The moment he taps on your window, you jump out of bed and race to the beautiful boy smiling at you through the glass.Β
Your heart pounds deeply in your chest when you see him - you feel most alive when you get to be with him. You pull your window open, and his smile grows.Β Β
βHush,β Hyunjin holds a finger to his mouth to remind you to keep quiet. Your family should be fast asleep by now and you donβt want to alert any of them to your escape.
The boy offers you a hand, and you take it as he guides you through the window. He pulls you close as you climb out to keep you from falling.
"You came," you hug him tightly and whisper, as if you're at all surprised that he actually showed up.
"Of course I did." Hyunjin pulls away and takes your hand, eager to begin your adventure. "Ready?"
You nod, lacing your fingers with his.Β βReady.β
Together, you sprint into the woods, weaving through the trees at impossible speeds. All around you the forest awakens, your glowing footprints breathing life into the stoic trees.Β
The spirit of the forest runs beside you, a beacon of pure joy and wonder. This is his home, his reason for existing.
The winding path drops you off at a clearing flooded in moonlight. The grass is soft under your feet, strands of silk between your toes.
Hyunjin shows you a gentle smile before he opens his palms to the perimeter of the clearing, encouraging blossoms to grow and bloom all around you.Β
Each flower glows as it opens, vibrant reds and purples and pinks exploding like fireworks from their stems.
You canβt help the joyous laughter that leaves you as Hyunjin pulls you towards the center, holding your hands with your palms to the sky.
He shushes you, and you watch as a rose bud forms in the air above your hands. It glows as it blooms, just like the others.
Your eyes flick up to meet Hyunjinβs as the rose forms, the joy of sharing his magic with you apparent on his face.Β
He plucks the rose out of midair and concentrates on it as other flowers begin to sprout, weaving their stems together into a crown.Β
Gently, he places the crown on your head, admiring the way it sits on your hair.Β βBeautiful,β he murmurs before clasping your hands and closing his eyes.
Suddenly youβre weightless as he pulls you up into the air with him, floating just feet above the ground. The two of you start to spin, and this time he joins you in your childlike laughter.
Youβre sucked into his gaze, reflecting his smile as if you were a mirror. You can feel the magic flowing through your body just as it does in his.
Your life has been forever changed since the day you found the magical boy who lives in the woods. He has brought so much beauty to your life and youβll never forget the nights youβve spent together.
You know you donβt have much to offer Hyunjin besides companionship, but you get the feeling that is enough for him. He never asks for anything in return. He just wants to see you smile.
βThis is amazing,β you confess, completely in awe. He has filled you with wonder, just as every other night youβve spent with him.
Hyunjin brings you in close and touches his forehead to yours.Β βThis is only the beginning.β
okay now that youβve read it once, READ IT AGAIN WHILE LISTENING TO HUSH BECAUSE I KNOW YOU DIDNβT DO IT THE FIRST TIMEΒ
seriously itβs better with the soundtrack
