When was the last time Toriau saw sunlight? Probably a few days ago, he hasn't been out of the studio. The studio was his second home, and that was where all the amazing songs came from

"Are you sure you can live off Cheeto puffs and coke?", Yoongi, the new comer said as he entered the room with white plastic bags. "You need something healthy to eat"

"Let me die in peace", Toriau croaked out, reaching out for Yoongi. "This way, I don't have to worry about the production of the song"

Yoongi chuckled, putting the two bags softly down beside Toriau's head. Sitting down, he lifted Toriau's head and put it on his own lap. "Hyung...", Toriau softly called out. "Leave me alone in my misery. My misery is mine, your misery is yours"

"I'd like to share my misery with you", Yoongi mumbled under his breath, combing Toriau's soft hair. "By the way, you haven't wash your hair yet. It smells bad, I'm sure one even a stranger can smell that from 10 miles"

"I wrote this, hyung. Check it out", he said, standing up (scaring Yoongi in the process, the small man let out a small yelp)

Yoongi held it gently in his hands, almost as if it was his most treasured piece

"I can't control it
When you come closer, and your scent fills my nostrils
I can't breathe, only you in my vision, blurry but visional
And you bury your head in my neck, where the scene gets better
I could feel your heartbeat, loud and clear
I could feel my heartbeat, pounding against my chest
What's this aching feeling in my body?
Baby, baby. I can't identify it
Decide that for me, babe"

Yoongi finished with a crack

The two people in the room burst out in laughter. Toriau slapped Yoongi's thigh and Yoongi sent him a piercing glare. Toriau abruptly stopped laughing, covering his mouth, he turned away from Yoongi

"I never knew you write such good lyrics", Yoongi tapped the paper. "You could produce some songs for our comeback"

"Comeback? I don't know her", Toriau had a grin on his face. "Anyways, Bang PD told me that I have to work as a soloist for a few weeks or months", he shrugged. "Since I already had a solo, y'know..."

"Of course", Yoongi replied. "I'll be looking forward to that"

'After a few days'

It's the first day or promoting his song, Heartbeat. It felt surreal again, the sounds of the fan chants, and the feeling of the lights on him, him

He felt adrenaline rush through his veins as he danced along to the music, singing his lungs out, as if it was his last performance. Toriau realized, knew that this was what made him happy, his seven brothers, music, and the fans but still, he felt as if something was missing, and that made him feel incomplete. It was as if he was a puzzle, and a piece was missing, the piece that makes him whole

He finished the song with grace, waving at the fans, he turned away to go backstage

Surely, Namjoon called him to check up on him

"Toriau~~ How are you, Baby? Was it fun?"
