VI.

The joy written plainly on Yoochun’s face was almost contagious. Junsu cracks a weak smile and Yoochun presses cool lips to his forehead.

Thank you, Junsu. Thank you for allowing me to save your life. Yoochun murmurs at the top of Junsu’s head.

Junsu closes his eyes and prepares himself for all that is to come. He hears Yoochun opening a drawer somewhere in the room, and then the sound of a sharpening knife chills him to the bone. Do I have to be killed first before I become his mate? Junsu thinks, slightly frightened, but he relaxes slowly. He wouldn’t have saved me if he wanted me to be killed in the first place.

Junsu, Junsu-ah … His eyelids flicker and open at the sound of his name and his jaw falls open as he takes in the sharp, metal knife that Yoochun is holding. The antique handle was embedded with large, precious gemstones that winked under the soft yellow lights, and there were words in an ancient script carved along the side of the blade.

Yoochun … Yoochun sees the fear in Junsu’s eyes. Su-ah, don’t be afraid. I am not going to harm you in any way. All you have to do is … to drink my blood. Yoochun braces himself.

Drink your blood …? Just after the words left Junsu’s mouth, Yoochun slashes his thin wrist with the knife. A pale, glittery bluish substance streams out of the wound and Yoochun hisses in pain. Ignoring his frail body, Junsu sits up to check on the deep gash.

Yoochun … how could you bear do this, for me? Junsu whispers. Yoochun shakes his head and lifts his wrist to his beloved’s lips. Drink.

Uncertainly, Junsu inches in and licks the wound tentatively, before sucking at the clear bluish substance. Yoochun flinches at the sensation - it was both pleasurable and painful at the same time. He could feel the warm muscle lapping at the gap in his skin, the smoothness and fullness of Junsu’s lips; if Junsu had not been in this state, he would have taken him, right there and now.

Slowly, colour floods back into Junsu’s pale cheeks. He lay back on the pillow, feeling the foreign substance enter his bloodstream with a rush and causing his heartbeat to pick up inconsistently. Unfamiliar images surges through his brain and Junsu unconsciously begins to shake violently again. He saw Yoochun’s face, bright with tears; a blinding flash and the echoes of a power strike, rain on his face, warm arms around his waist, lightning striking overhead and Yoochun’s everlasting scream of agony …

Flashback - 5 years ago -
The night sky was dark, ominous. Roosting birds chirped quietly before the sound faded away completely. Junsu could smell the scent of incoming rain and wet grass on the tip of his nose; feel the damp drops scatter on the tips of his hair. He clung on closer to Yoochun’s hand. He had no idea what they were doing here, but he did not want to break the silence.

Changmin, Yoochun suddenly said. He’s here.

Junsu looked from left to right tentatively. He did not see a single movement nor hear any signs of another presence within the woods aside from the two of them.

There came a small rustling sound and a long, bright sphere took form about three metres away from them, sending blinding rays in all directions and forcing Junsu to shut his eyes. When he opened them, painfully watery, once again, the glowing light had been replaced by a shimmering white figure that stood tall, with its chin held high authoritatively. As it spoke, Junsu could only see its lips moving.

Park Yoochun, it uttered, you have broken the rules between human and immortal. I have hereby taken up the responsibility of banishing you from this realm which connects both of your worlds together. Yoochun’s grasp tightened on his, and Junsu tensed up, feeling the weight of Changmin’s words sink onto his chest.

No matter what you say, Changmin, I am not going to let you separate us. Yoochun hissed fiercely, hoping that Junsu would be instilled with renewed hope. He felt a squeeze and looked down to see tears glistening at the corners of his lover’s eyes. He could feel it. He could feel the bond between them both stretching to its maximum. Now was the time to witness the strength of their love.

Tell me, when have you become so naïve, Yoochun? Changmin’s lips curved upwards. Do you really genuinely think that love can conquer all?

I believe in Junsu. I believe in our love. The firmness of his tone showed no reservations in his stand.

Kim Junsu, do you feel the same way? This time, Changmin directed his question towards the smaller man.

I … Junsu was tongue-tied for a second. I trust Yoochun. Smiling gently, he looked up into the pair of eyes he had grown to love. I love him. Yoochun met his gaze evenly, his eyes red with sorrow.

Suddenly, the sentimental moment is shattered as Changmin threw his head back and laughed towards the heavens, the loud noises bouncing all around them. Park Yoochun … Kim Junsu … you are two very ignorant children. Love, love, love - all you talk about is love! All that you claim of your love are mere falsehoods of speech from your unforgivable lips! His voice took on an angry tone as he finally stared down at the couple with red hot orbs.

Yoochun spotted the change in his eyes. Changmin-shi, you’re jealous, aren’t you? Jealous that you’ll never be able to experience love in this life; jealous that even a devil like me was allowed to fall in love?

Changmin shrieked. Lies! All lies!

We all know very well that it is the truth I am saying, Changmin-shi. Face up to it. You can only see the world in colours if you have seen it in black and white. You can only love if you allow yourself to love others first. Yoochun’s voice lowered to a murmur.

Junsu saw a vein in Changmin’s neck twitching, and sensed danger peaking high in his emotions.

Don’t tell me what I can do and what I can’t, Park Yoochun, when you, yourself, Changmin’s hands balled into fists, are not worthy of the sacred love!

In a blinking of the eye, Changmin had sent his internal power surging towards Yoochun in the shape of a shimmering white arrow at the speed of light. Yoochun, unable to defend himself in time, could only close his eyes in acceptance. Without a second’s hesitation, Junsu forced his body over Yoochun’s at the last nanosecond and felt a searing pain scorch at his senses as the arrow pierced right through his heart.

His heart …

Unable to balance himself, Junsu collapsed backwards into Yoochun’s shaking arms. Junsu … Junsu …Yoochun was incapable of saying anything else at the moment. Even Changmin stood dumbstruck, silent as a stone. Yoochun clutched Junsu to him protectively. Don’t sleep, Junsu, don’t sleep …

Shim Changmin! The fury ebbed plainly from Yoochun who was determined to take revenge.

Junsu saw the fire in his eyes. Tugging on his hand and successfully capturing his attention, Junsu pressed his bloodless lips onto Yoochun’s flaming ones, trying to reciprocate with as much passion that he had remaining. Yoochun … don’t. Don’t fight him, please. Let me be the only sacrifice out of this. He has witnessed our love. He will let you go. With the back of his hand, Junsu rubbed away the stream that was running down the face of his beloved.

Junsu … I will not let you die, I p-promise. Yoochun blubbered as a beautiful smile spread itself across the mortal’s tired features.

Shim Changmin … what do I have to do in order for you to save Junsu? Changmin did not expect the arrogant devil to be pleading with him with tears in his eyes. He should have been feeling gloriously triumphant, but the scene before him wrenched his heart.

He is too close to death, Yoochun-shi, for the first time in the night, Changmin’s stance had softened. He cannot be saved. I am sorry.

Upon his words, the heavens opened their doors and the heavy drops descended upon the earth in thick blasts, drenching them completely, as if sealing the truth, sealing their fate. Lightning flashed overhead, accompanied by the occasional booms of roaring thunder.

For the last time, Junsu felt the slightest pressure on his wet cheek under Yoochun’s caress, and his soul lifted up and away as Yoochun whispered I love you into his ears and his eyelids fluttered shut for eternity.
