BTS To The Edge of The Sky: Plots & Twists of the Past

To The Edge Of The Sky

I couldn't help but stay stiff in his embrace. I try to relax.... But I couldn't... For some reason only God knows. Zero started to sway me as his hands gently rubbed my arms. "Calm down, Seven... It's not like I'm gonna do anything else...." Aish this boy. "Shut up will ya!" I whispered-yelled out of embarrassment. He chuckled once more.

"I'm really just warming you up..." at least he never tried anything. He never really did.... But whatever. I always felt safe and assured when I'm with him. His presence alone helped me feel safe.

"Thanks Zero...."
"You're welcome..."

We were in that same position for minutes, not even moving an inch away from each other. Only a little later our legs needed to rest. "Wanna go sit down?" Zero said softly behind me. I nodded once and he started to pull me away with him.

We sat down on the bench with my head on Zero's shoulder, his head on mine, and his arm snaking over my shoulders.

A heavy sigh escaped his lips making me turn to him. "You okay?" Concern was clearly in my voice as I slightly moved away from his shoulder. His face was scrunched up a bit as he groaned. I noticed his right hand flatly resting on his stomach.

"Does it still hurt as bad?" I asked him, remembering his bruise.
"Yeah... kinda...." he shifted beside me to sit more comfortably.
"Have you changed the bandages already?"
"Hm... uh... I did take them off last night. But I didn't replace them." The pain on his face was gone being replaced by a mischievous smirk.
"What now...." I whined, my voice failing to hide my embarrassment.
"Looks like you'll have to changed them for me again...." he hadn't removed his smirk off of his face at all!
I got up and started walking away.

"Fuck you."

I muttered out. But I didn't expect he'd hear it.

"I'd love to."

"Oh god shut up!" I turned around and gave him a death glare. He raised up his hands in defeat. "Just.... Follow me...."

With him being my best friend, sometimes I couldn't tell if he was joking or not. Which also made me wonder about his thoughts. If I were Six I would've found out already long ago.

_PHASe HQ_LOUNGE_
_5: 14pm_

     Sipping my drink, I sighed. There were barely any people in the lounge right now. Actually... It was just me, Six, and Four and the two bartenders. Wonder why though, looks like most operatives have gotten busy since we now know where KAIROS is hiding.

"Lighten up Seven.... Enjoy the lounge while it's basically empty."

Six suddenly approached me and took a seat across me at the table I sat at. Four came walking here too with a drink in his hand. "Move over." He told Six who scooted away to give the assassin some space.

Soft and relaxing music played in the lounge. The three of us were really the only customers in here. I expected the place to get filled in a little later but no one stepped through those glass doors.

"Hey Four..." Six nudged him. I only watched as Six grinned. "What?" Four's answer was flat, as always.

"Go play that piano."

My eyebrow rose. The piano???

"Why??" Four turned to look at him.

"No one's here except us. Come on! I haven't heard you play in a long time..."

Wow, the mighty Four actually plays the piano??

"You can play?" I asked him. "....Yeah.." he took his drink and sipped it. Six kept nudging him. "Come on! Show Seven your skills~~!"
