Of Hourglasses and Marionettes

Description

Hoseok only wanted to dance and Taehyung only wanted Hoseok.

 

That was all there was. It was a neverending vicious cycle. Hoseok danced, unaware of everything else on the planet. With Taehyung by his side, Hoseok never felt alone. Dancing alone never made Hoseok lonely- just alone.

 

Taehyung always stayed, dancing with Hoseok in perfect synchrony. He knew he was nothing but a third wheel to Hoseok and his dance. But with the self-assurance that he’d be fine, all he aimed for was a smile on Hoseok’s face- he danced with him even if his feet felt heavy as lead, as if dance was his sworn enemy and he was surrendering.

This is beautifully written. It felt as though each word was meticulously chosen to craft a somber tone and mood, which, honestly left me speechless.

If I had enough karma points to up-vote, I definitely would.

Chapter 1: KOOK FU OFF I DONT NEED YOUR SASSINESS ATM-

Ok I'm officially heartbroken;-;
Plus i like the idea of using an hourglass. Though time is a man made concept, it's everything to some people (i'm one of those people lol). Idk, i have feeling that having it instead of an actual clock would be therapeutic/?
