Gray, black, white,
nothing new,
I'm used to it now.
No colour, no feeling.
I wander around, feeling empty.
I walk the same route I do everyday, left, right, cross the road, straight ahead again.
I pass the playground I always pass, but there is something different today, feels different, looks different.
I stop in my tracks and look around, I look across the road, to the sky, I look behind me. At last I look towards the playground, walk towards it.
Memories flashing on my mind, when my world had colours, feeling... but that's all gone, it left me behind again.
I stop walking, staring at your back.
it has colour... how?
The colour of your golden skin, chestnut hair, your green and black jacket, it all has colour.
You turn around, giving me the most beautiful smile I've ever seen. Tears begin to blur my vision. I feel warmth surrounding me, I hug you back.
Tears, happiness, smiles evident on our faces. I open my eyes, looking at you, the trees, the bushes, the sky, the road.
Suddenly my world has colour again, light made the colour noticeable again. More noticeable then ever before.
You are my source of light, my source of colour, my source of life.

hey, so, okay.
lemme explain.
this is a bit awkwardly written but that's because 1 English isn't my first language, 2 my first like Short-Story kind of thing, 3 im generally an awkward person.
but now the explanation so the short story is an AU, where you only see colour when you meet your soulmate or feel love, regardless if it's true love or not. that is why, in this case yoongi, said he had seen colour before, but it had left him. The way you are able to see colour differs from the situation. if it's from love, it slowly builds up. if it's from a soulmate, you first see that person in colour and when you connect with them, the world gets coloured.
the soulmate can be a friend or a significant other but here is the catch, if you do find true love, there is a possibility you never find your soulmate, you also never feel light. in the sense that you will aways feel some degree of empty-ness(if thats even a word). if you do find your soulmate it's easy to give up on finding a significant other if your soulmate wasn't already the one. in this case it can be whatever you want it to be cause i didn't give enough context XD.
so now for the backstory,
yoongi met someone at university whom he loved and that was why he saw colour, but the person cheated on him and his colour disappeared again. he got depressed because he was able to see such a beautiful thing as colour but it betrayed him. he decided to never start a relationship again without know they were the one. he started to wander looking for said person, but he eventually gave up when his demons took over. he started to shut himself in, away from the world, but his childhood friends got him to promise them to go have a walk every evening so there won't be a lot of people but still get his movement and exercise for the day. he kept his promise to them and walked the same route every evening. that's how he eventually met hoseok.
