Colorblind - Chapter One

The colour had entirely faded from my life for the brief moment Taehyung and I wasn't beside each other. I was purged into a colourless existence without Taehyung. That's how the soulmate thing worked. There was an undeniable bond that I shared with Taehyung. But whenever his aura left my side, neither of us could see colour.

It wasn't just Taehyung and me; the whole world had evolved this way. Upon first meeting any soulmate, any eye contact allows a temporary lapse of colour. For a few seconds while the eyes contain to lock gaze. 

To form the bond, lips are required to unite, to allow what me and Taehyung currently held, which was the semi-permanent colour, to remain whilst the other soulmate was nearby. However, once one's soulmate was to leave your side. As Taehyung just had, I would be purged into that bleak world. For long periods of time, being apart could cause dizziness and nausea.

The final stage was set on a more physical level that Taehyung and I hadn't explored yet. This type of bond allowed permanent vision unless extreme distances between soulmates. Such as continents apart. This complete bond was done when the body connected as one, allowing the souls to reunite.

After the final bond had been initiated in the case of death, the other soulmates' colour vision would fade over time, so would their vision along with it. Legend has it that losing your vision after a soulmate's passing causes the surviving soul to only see their lost companion. But few rarely made it to such a stage, as most went insane and chose to reunite with their love in the afterlife.

The bathroom door clicked open; my eyes wandered up to meet his. Every time meeting his gaze was just as powerful as the first time. A warm rush jolted through my body, my vision adjusted with the slight flickering of my eyes as they adapted to the tidal wave of colour as it once again flooded the room. The teal colour of blue returned to my ripped jeans; the warm ivory returned to my hand, as did the orchid colour of my nail polish. But most of all, there was that pull to him. That unmistakable urge that I knew right here was where we both belonged.

"Miss me, Angel?" Taehyung smirked as I saw the goosebumps rise on his skin as he refused to tear his eyes away. "No, not really. What took you so long? Do I need to go and get an air freshener?" I mocked. Taehyung scoffed and ran to the edge of the bed, hurling himself against me; pushing me onto the bed. We ruptured into a wave of laughter as we battled around on the mattress, playfully tickling in places we knew drove each other insane.

"Okay, Okay. Stop!" Taehyung begged as he finally threw up his hands in defeat. We lay side by side and once again found ourselves silently relishing in that warm bond that purred in satisfaction as my eyes searched deeply into the warm light of Taehyung's brown eyes.

"Shall we order takeaway to celebrate our first night?" I suggested as I heard the beginnings of a growl from Taehyung's stomach. "Fine... but don't get the super spicy chicken this time," Taehyung answered. I shook my head and childishly stuck out my tongue at him, which he moved forward sharply as he teased his tongue along with mine into his mouth, and he began to dance his hands around my waist.

The sudden action had caused every nerve in my body to heighten, feeling every movement of his lips and tongue that traced every inch of my mouth. The intense pleasure burned through my body. I knew he, too, had the same sensations as tiny satisfied hums caught in his throat as I fought back with the same passion. Kissing like this wasn't a rare occurrence, but it was often too much to handle. Neither of us had learned to control the urge to make the final bond completely devour us both. My lips parted from his. He rested his forehead against mine as we caught our breath, lips throbbing, trembling at the urge for more. Lips still damp from the leftover remanence of his lips.

"I love it when you look at me like that."Taehyung sneered.

"Like what?" I asked as my eyes finally dared to wander back into his gaze.
