destiny...(7/?)

a/n: italics are thoughts as usual :) this chapter actually explains how the four creatures get to own take Jinki after he dies.

Jinki’s POV

“Free for grab” that line kept repeating in my mind while Taemin and Minho were busying themselves in the kitchen preparing some midnight snack for my suffering tummy.

Free for grab.

Free for grab.

Free for grab.

“Jinki-ah, would you like to have pasta or sandwichie?” Taemin bobbed his head to me with his cute antics while he was taking out a carton of milk. Successfully breaking that broken record which was playing in my mind.

“How would you determine who would get my soul after my death?” I thought aloud.

“I supposed you still have the last say in wherever you would be after you die, since there’s no record of you going to heaven or hell. You have the right to choice who you want to follow,” Taemin sighed.

“What do you mean by that?” I tilted my head, not getting what he meant.

“You get to make the final decision of who you’re going with, but that’s dependent on how much we manage to ‘convince’ you to follow us,” Minho explained.

I raised a brow, “Convince?”

“Seducing sounds nicer to me though,” Key came walking down the stairs with a smug look.

Did I hear him wrongly? My eyes opened wide to his words as both Key and Jonghyun made their way into the kitchen joining me at the dining table.

“Don’t mind him, he’s too crude,” Jonghyun said as he shoved Key with his elbow, “I would prefer the word lure, actually any word that would make you feel comfortable is fine,” he grinned like a child when Taemin approach the table holding a glass of chocolate milk.

“So do you understand now Jinki?” Taemin said as he passed me the glass of milk, smacking Jonghyun’s stretched out hand during the process.

“Hmm…I think so,” I considered carefully and nodded, convince, seduce, lure? I think I get it. Their choices of words aren’t the best, but I get what they meant.

“Yea, I get it,” I smiled genuinely and handed Jonghyun the glass of chocolate milk, because who could resist that kicked puppy look of his? And I seriously don’t need milk, I’m screaming chicken all over!

Jonghyun took the glass of milk grinning like a child who got a new toy, “Gomawo Jinki-ah!” with that he kissed me on my lips.

My eyes grew bigger and blood started flowing towards my cheeks making me blush like a tomato.

My first kiss.

“Yah!! Kim Jonghyun! We’ve not started the game yet! You cheater!!!” Key started smacking the hell out of the shorter boy who was slurping on the chocolate milk and protecting it from Key’s violent attack.

“Aww, poor Jinki. Don’t worry you’ll get over the fact that your first kiss got taken away by someone who has such big nostrils,” Taemin patted my head and turn around to busy himself at the kitchen sink.

“Yah! I heard that you evil fella!” Jonghyun yelled in the midst of fending Key off with a fruit basket, which Taemin promptly ignored.

Minho shook his head at the chaotic scene while picking up the phone, “Chicken anybody?”

“ME!!!” I jumped from my seat and ran towards Minho, hugging him thankfully. Chicken would be the best thing to cure my heartache of losing my first kiss to someone whom I’ve met not long ago, not to mention, he’s not human ㅠㅠ

By the time I we finished the chicken, it was almost dawn and I was starting to feel sleepy after all the chicken and watching twilight movie series on TV.

I stretched and yawned, I caught a glimpse of the other four staring at me with thoughtful eyes. Thoughts that I couldn’t put my hands on, before I could protest about their stares, the ends of their lips curled up into smiles, in such a way as if they are telling me they won’t hurt me.

I sighed and shook the thoughts out of my mind, making my way to the kitchen grabbing a bottle of water from the fridge before heading to bed. The moment I turn around I gaped.

Mwoyaige!? Where’s everyone? I frowned as I walked towards the now quiet living room. “They probably went home,” I said to myself as I walked slowly towards the stairs and up to my room. Careful not to spill the water or fall down the stairs, it’s never nice to fall that way. Not to mention I don’t wanna disturb umma’s beauty sleep.

When I stepped into my dark bedroom, I saw the silhouette of four bodies, lying around my queen size bed which was near the window. I tiptoed myself towards them, not wanting to wake them up. They might not even be asleep, but just in case.

I drew up the curtains, letting the light from the full moon spill into the room, illuminating the space in its soft subtle light. I quietly observed the sleeping beauties, they look absolutely stunning under the moonlight.

My mind decided to set the water bottle down and picked up the polaroid camera which was on my study table, moving closer to Key who was the nearest to me. I hovered the camera above his sleeping face, making sure it’s not too close so that the sound of the camera would not wake him up from his sleep.

I took a quick shot and went on to Jonghyun, then Taemin and lastly Minho. I sat by window waiting for my masterpieces to develop, fingers threading though the strings attached to the balloons that Jonghyun gave me at the carnival. Wondering why I didn’t freak out more when I saw them here in my room, announcing to me about my soon-to-be departure and also them not being humans.

How did I manage to accept them at once and not flinch? Maybe I’ve seen this coming? Nah, who would have seen four beautiful boys, or should I say creatures coming after their life? And in such lovely manner? I bet nobody ever did! I chuckled at my own thought, I am very dense, thank you.

Within minutes, the pictures were developed and I stared admiringly at them, admiring how the dim moonlight that shone through the window illuminated their beauty and the best thing was I got to capture them with my camera.

Feeling fulfilled, I carefully crawled my way through Jonghyun and Taemin whose limbs were tangled on my bed, they whined in their sleep as I accidentally shoved their hands at each other’s face when I was making space for myself to fit in. I wanted to laugh at how hilarious and cute they look but I just settled with a snicker.

As I laid my head on my fluffy pillow, I knew that tomorrow and the many days to come would be better and I am looking forward to the fun I would get from my future encounters. I’ve also came up with a mental list of what I would do, before dozing off into chickenland~

Things I would do:

1.    Make lots of memories for umma, be it myself, with her or my new found friends!

2.    Spend time with Jonghyun, Key, Minho and Taemin! Know more about them!

3.    Make sure my decision of who I should leave with when my time’s up is made after much consideration!

4.    Make sure I take my medications on time, so that I won’t die earlier than expected (five months)!

5.    Go to sleep now before I get stuck in bed the entire day again and lose out the chance to spend time with my friends!

6.    We’ll make dumplings together when I’m awake! Because………….just because…………………………………………………….

a/n: sorry guys!! That I have to end it this way! I didn’t know what to do with the ending...but I am double updating, so that means, CHAP 8 is out too!!! xD that’s for MIA-ing for so long.
