▄ ▅ ▆ ▇ █ Chasing After You █ ▇ ▆ ▅ ▄
"Wha-!" You gasped at the creature in front of you. It was the black swan you saw in the morning. It was flapping it's wings furiously and making screeching noices at you. You backed away a little bit, but the black swan decided to follow you. You started panicking and thinking of all the possible ways to run away from the crazy black swan that was now chasing after you.
You ran faster and faster, until you found yourself from the forest. It was dark and scary, the perfect hiding place. You were sure the swan couldn't find you from here, right?
Wrong.
You heard a rustling noice coming from behind you, which made you flinch. You put your hand in front of your mouth to prevent yourself from screaming or making any noice at all. The soft noices that were coming from the forest were not helping you calm down at all. You would be getting a panic attack any time now and the freaking black swan would attack you too.
Your breathing started to get unstable and your eyes were already watering. You shivered furiously and curled up into a ball, pressing your knees to you chest, and hoping that all of this would soon end. The rustling noice stopped and you gasped, still trying to breathe.
It felt like you were getting chocked and you couldn't breath at all. The cold air was making you shiver even more. You were gasping for air and black dots started to fill your vision. Your eyes were trying to stay open, but they would soon collapse. As you were having a panic attack, you felt a hand on your shoulder. You widened your eyes and threw yourself on the ground, panicking even more.
"Hey, it's okay," A soothing voice reassured you.
"Wh- who are you?" You said with a shaky voice, still backing away from the source of the unknown voice.
"It's okay, I won't hurt you," the voice calmed you down.
You were actually getting calmer and calmer by every minute. The kind and warm voice was getting closer, but this time you weren't running away from it. The voice seemed very familiar to you yet so mysteriously unknown. You weren't sure how to react to it. As soon as you calmed down a little, you felt tears rolling down on your cheeks one after another. Soon you were sobbing quietly from all the stress you were experiencing at the moment.
"Shhh.. don't cry..." The voice reassured even more. You could feel someones breath on your forehead, and soon a pair of hands wrapped around your tiny waist, securing you. You felt secure and calm now.
"Good job," The voice soothed you.
You stood up together and headed back to the park where you came from, since you had left all your belongings there. You just hoped nobody stole them. When you reached the park, you realized that it was a man accompanying you. He was tall and very handsome looking. His hair was curly and black and his eyes were reflecting a beautiful light that was coming from a streetlight. They were like a pair of galaxies.
He was wearing an clean outfit; black ripped jeans and a pair of black Timberlands. His plain white t-shirt looked good with his long black coat. You were fascinated by his looks.
"Thank you..." You managed to say with your still shaky voice.
"It's my pleasure," He smiled and took your hands in his, which made you blush a little bit. He looked at you and smiled warmly. You evaded his gaze as much as you could, but soon the man raised your chin so you would look at him too.
You shared a moment together, staring at each other passionately, but soon you grew tired and yawned a little. The man chuckled and patted your head.
"You must be tired," He raised one of his eyebrows and smiled.
"Uh, well, yeah..." You mumbled and looked away from his gaze.
"Can I take you home?" The man asked with a kind voice.
"S- sure," You agreed and started walking home with him.
The weather was nice, but you were still cold because of the intense wind that was blowing through your hair and hitting you face. The man noticed and grabbed your hand, pressing your palms together to emit a bit of warmth to your hand as well. He chuckled and kept slowing the pace for some reason.
"What's your name?" He asked witha low voice.
"Uh, Y/N," You said awkwardly.
"Wow, that's a pretty name! I like it a lot," he smiled.
"W- what about you...?" You asked carefully.
"Oh, my name is Jungkook, Jeon Jungkook to be honest," He sighed and gave you a warm smile.
"W- well, you have a nice name t- too..." You blushed and fastened yuor pace suddenly.
"Hey! Why are you walking so fast?" Jungkook chuckled.
"I- I don't know," You looked down and slowed your pace again to match his one.
Jungkook laughed and soon you were standing in front of your apartment. You sighed and took a step forward. Jungkook was still holding your hand, which you didn't really mind though. You turned to look at him and gave him a weak smile.
"So, is this where we are parting ways?" He asked with a disappointed tone in his voice, almost like he didn't want to go.
"I guess so..." You frowned too.
"Can we at least exchange phone numbers?" He hummed and smirked at you, which made you blush furiously, so you looked down at your feet again.
"Sure, why not," you agreed and you exchanged your numbers.
"Thank you!" Jungkook beamed a smile at you which made you flinch.
"Oh, it's nothing..." You mumbled.
"I have to go now, so goodbye for now!" He leaned in and kissed your forehead.
You blushed and Jungkook chuckled again. He waved you good bye and soon he was nowhere to be seen. You sighed and grabbed your keys from your pocket, ready to open your door. You approached your door and inserted the key into the keyhole. You pushed the door, but to your surprise, the door flung open from your weight and you crached on the ground with a loud thud.
"Wha-! It was open?" You gasped confusedly.
Did you leave the door open?
