Dear one ||Taekook|| - Chapter 7: Chapter 7

' You want something?' Taehyung asked peeking his head  into Jungkook's room ' Am going to sleep'
' You don't have to care for me Kim' Jungkook snapped
Taehyung sighed as he got into the room...a small pout on his lips ' Mr whatever your name is... If you can care about me I can also... I don't need your permission'
He is so cutee Jungkook wanted to bite that squishy cheeks and kiss the pout off but he just burried his feelings deep down... like he had done all these years
' Look Mr Kim.. do whatever you want just don't talk to me...' Jungkook saw the way Taehyung's pout lessened 'Also what do you mean by Mr whatever my name is? Am JK'
' Am JK' Taehyung said mimicking him ' I know your name is something different... And as I told.. I'll just unravel it slowly taking my sweet time...and by that time you'd be my number one fan'
I already am 'In your dreams'
' I won't mind that in real life too' Taehyung smirked
' Anyway angel good night'
' Am not an angel' Jungkook sighed
' You know what JK? You are like a snow angel left out in the cold..not the one we make on the ground..but the one which was moulded out into a standing angel figure by the people like us...even though its an angel...its left out in the dark world..all cold and tough..just like you...but the moment it is provided with all the warmth...it melts like the softest of marshmallows...' Taehyung smiled when he saw Jungkook looking at him with his big wide doe eyes adorable
' Keep smiling Taehyung... happiness suits you'
Both Jungkook and Taehyung stilled as soon as those words left Jungkook's mouth... Jungkook cursing himself for getting carried off by the beautiful smile while Taehyung was busy hiding the blush that was spreading through his cheeks.
'Good night Kim' Jungkook said as he slowly laid down taking care to not hurt himself
' G-good night' Taehyung almost ran out to his room
Taehyung plopped down on his bed..his arms cupping his cheeks What's wrong with you Taehyung? How can you actually go soft on him? Don't forget that you need to win his trust and let all the information out and not actually fall for him ok??
He scolded himself as he slowly extended his hand towards the nightstand taking out a picture... His long slender fingers ran over the face in the photo as his eyes brimmed with tears ' I still miss you.... '
🥀🥀🥀🥀🥀
The next day ended too quickly... Jungkook was at home.. taking rest as per Taehyung's order...  Jimin came to pick Taehyung up since Jungkook was off duty ... Jin had come home with food sometime later only to find Jungkook sound asleep... He had sat beside him for sometime before going back to his office... Hobi was now busy with some event which was going to happen in his academy...
But what changed was the relation between Joon and Taehyung... They had completely stopped talking....
Jin was on his way back home when he decided to just go and meet Jungkook...
He reached Taehyung's home and saw Jimin in the living room sprawled out on the couch with an evil smirk
Jin frowned as he walked towards him...' Jimin ah..'
' Oh hi hyung' Jimin smiled sitting straight
' W-where is Tae?' Jin asked looking around
' Tae?' Jimin laughed ' Fighting for his life'
Jin's looked at Jimin who went back scrolling on his phone ' Yaa Jimin ah!'
' What Hyung?'
' Where is that idiot?' Jin asked and as if on cue he heard a yell
' Am not your fucking angel'..
' As you wish angel'
Jin's eyes widened when he saw a giggling Taehyung running out of Jungkook's room
' Don't be shocked hyung.... Tae is really smiling..this isn't a dream' Jimin said when he saw Jin's face ' He has been annoying the hell out of JK the moment he came back... and he never stopped grinning till now'
Jin smiled as he sat down
' Oh Jin hyung' Taehyung called when he saw him ' When did you come?'
' When you ran out giggling'.. Jimin laughed only to have Taehyung go still...his expression hardening
' I'll make him have the med' Taehyung walked away
' You pabo' Jin smacked Jimin's head making him groan..
Both of them sat in silence for a while before Jimin decided to open his mouth
'Jin hyung.... Tae and Joon...' Jimin started
' Joon deserved it' Jin said leaning back ' How dare he raise his hand at my kid?'
' But Jin hyung...what Tae told about Joon...that was also not right...he shouldn't have doubted Joonie like that..he is too hurt' Jimin argued but just then his phone rang ' Oh...Jin hyung.. It's one of my clients... I need to go now... Taehyung ahh am leaving' He called out
' Call me at night' Came the reply from Taehyung...
Jin looked at Jimin who smiled at him before leaving
A long sigh left Jin as Jimin's happy face when Taehyung asked him to call flashed through his mind
I wish I could tell you the truth
🥀🥀🥀🥀🥀
' The doctor called today...he told that you can remove the sling by this weekend' Taehyung said as he closed the medicine box keeping it aside ' It will take some more weeks to heal properly..pain will be there. So Don't do any hectic work okk'
' Hmm' Jungkook hummed...his eyes fixed onto the tab on his lap
' When do you have to go to meet your hyung?' Taehyung asked playing with the hem of his shirt
' His appointment is at 10' Jungkook replied without thinking
' When....will you be back'
' Noo-why...is it because you will be missing me petal?' Jungkook asked raising his eyes from the screen
Taehyung swear he almost had his heart out of his chest seeing the smirk and hearing the deep voice calling him petal.. his cheeks started heating up
' Why should I miss you? Its you who should be missing me JK'
' Sure' Jungkook scoffed as he went back to check something on the tab
' You don't have any meetings for tomorrow' Jungkook suddenly spoke up ' Nor this week....'
' Yeah... That's because Jin hyung wants to hold a welcome party for me' Taehyung shrugged ' My live went too viral and all our business partners now want to meet me in person...so yeah'
' When is it going to be held?'
' Mostly next week...Hyung wanted you to get well before that'
' Ok'
' And JK... tomorrow we have to go to get my suit for the function okk?'
' Just tell me when to go' Jungkook said...
' I think this is the first time we are having a decent conversation'
' Don't make me regret opening my mouth Kim' Jungkook rolled his eyes making Taehyung laugh
' I should get going now...do tell me if you want something' Taehyung said as Jungkook scoffed
' Tae?' Jungkook called out making Taehyung stop at the door step
' See you finally want something from see' Taehyung had a wide smile as he looked at Jungkook...his eyes shining in victory
How I missed this shine Jungkook sighed 'I'll be back by 12...'
Taehyung's smile fadded as an unknown emotion swirled in his eyes ' What?' he tilted his head
' I know you asked about me coming back from hospital because you wanted me to come with you somewhere'
' H-how?' Taehyung whispered..but the room was so silent that Jungkook heard it clearly
' Where Taehyung?'
' Busan'
🥀🥀🥀🥀🥀
' Tae' Jin called as he entered Jungkook's room only to see a puzzled Jungkook staring at Taehyung ' All ok?'
' Yeah hyung...he was just asking me to take the meds on time' Jungkook lied
Taehyung looked at him wide eyed but blinked when Jungkook subtly nodded his head at him
' I'll be in my room... Have a presentation to prepare for...bye hyung' Taehyung smiled when Jin held his wrist
' Taehyungie' Jin called lovingly as he pulled the younger close... hugging him ' Always keep smiling...leave the past behind.... And always remember...hyung loves you'
Taehyung felt his insides churn when he heard that... I love you It scares him...the mere three words that many of them crave to here scares him to the core...his world was turned upside down just after these three words...it reminded him of his harsh past
He immediately wrapped his arms around Jin clutching onto his clothes as an unknown fear settling in the pit of his stomach ' H-hyung...will you..are you going to leave me?'
' Not yet..' Jin smiled...' Now go and take some rest ok'
Taehyung pulled back nodding as he threw a last glance at Jungkook before walking out
' Jungkook ah'
' Yes hyung...' Jungkook frowned seeing the hesitation on Jin's face
' I have thought of it many times....' Jin started ' I know I did wrong and nothing can justify that....but I do deserve a chance to apologize'
' Hyung?'
' Kook I think am ready to meet him'
🥀🥀🥀🥀🥀
Taehyung was in front of his laptop...his eyes were moving through the letters on the screen but his mind was busy moving through someone's words
He got up from his table and walked to his bed... taking out the picture which was kept on the night stand...
' Hey... How are you?' He smiled lightly as he looked at the face in the picture ' Why did you leave me this early? You are so selfish' A tear fell on the frame as Taehyung closed his eyes drawing in a deep breath ' You know... today me and JK talked properly for the first time...and... oddly it felt nice... After you left me I never found myself enjoying talking to someone but JK felt... different? I don't know...'
He slowly laid back on the bed holding the picture close to his chest..' I.. laughed a lot today... After a long time and that too felt good...I felt like I was back to my older self...but I don't want to...Am afraid I might forget you...Jin hyung told me to leave the past behind and move on....but isn't it too early for that?'
🥀🥀🥀🥀🥀
' I can drive you know' JK said rolling his eyes
' Oh you sure can drive with one hand... do that when alone...but please not with me with you...You might not care if I live or die..but my hyungs do'  Taehyung said eying the sling around his bodyguard's neck
They were on their way to buy a suit for Tae..and since Jungkook's shoulder hadn't healed completely Taehyung took it upon himself to drive them to their destination
' Perks of having your own fashion brand' Jungkook said looking at all the workers bowing at Taehyung as they entered the building
Taehyung just winked as he walked in
' You can wait here... I'll make it fast' Taehyung said and was about to go when
' You don't have to... it's not like am your boyfriend or something...' Jungkook deadpanned
' Just when I thought I can be nice to you'
' Why? Wasn't I the one who would supposedly go soft?' Jungkook as standing close.
' Nope...' He leaned more... moving his lips towards his bodyguard's ear ' you are the one to go head over heels for me' Taehyung said as he nibbled on Jungkook's earlobe
Jungkook froze at his place as Taehyung walked away just after what he did The hell Taee Jungkook gulped as he sat down on the couch... still processing what happened
The fuck did I just do???? Taehyung freaked out the moment he got out from Jungkook's view What are you doing to me JK
' Sir your suit' A lady came handing over his suit for trial
' Thankyou' He bowed walking into the trial room
Jungkook was now walking around... checking out each and every outfit that was hung on to the stand when his eyes got caught on a certain suit that was hung separately ... He extended his arm taking out the suit as his eyes raked over the rich red material from which it is made...
' That's one of our limited edition from Amour ' The lady who earlier helped Taehyung to the trail room said grabbing Jungkook's attention ' It's Mr Kim's latest collection...and this suit along with the one over here...are the only ones of its kind...they are unique pieces' the lady pointed to another black one which was hung beside it
Honestly these two suits were the one's that stood out and it was no big surprise that it got his attention
' But the one there' She pointed towards a certain suit displayed in a glass showcase just behind him.... The richness of the cloth and the imbricate design was enough for anyone to build up a desire for it
' It's beautiful' Jungkook mumbled
' It indeed is...' The lady smiled 'But that's not for sale'
Jungkook frowned this suit alone can make millions
The lady chuckled seeing the dumbfounded look on Jungkook ' This is the very first design from Amour... This has a very special meaning in Mr Kim's life... He has made it for someone who is close to his heart... The world dies to get ahold of the very first fine piece of Amour even after these many years...but Mr Kim never allowed anyone to even touch it'
Jungkook looked back at the case Why is this special for him? Jungkook was still deep in thoughts when he felt a hand on his shoulder
' JK?' Taehyung frowned
' Ye-yeah?' Jungkook stuttered as he looked at Taehyung who had a violet suit on... Is there anything that won't suit him  'You done?' He asked
' Yes' Taehyung nodded ' Miss Frank this is perfect'
' Am glad you like it Mr Kim... I'll send this to your place by evening if its fine' The lady..Miss Frank said smiling
' Sure'
Jungkook was still holding the red suit in his hand..
' What were you doing?' Taehyung asked as his eyes travelled between the suit and Jungkook
' I..was just going through and saw this'
' You liked it?'
' Yeah.. it's pretty?'
' Why do you sound so unsure?'
' No... it's really pretty'
' You want this?' Taehyung had a playful smile
' Hell no' Jungkook scoffed and saw the smile fading off from Taehyung's lips ' I mean...see it's beautiful and all..but I was thinking...like..you know... It would suit you more'
Taehyung's cheeks heated up hearing that...his heart doing the stupid flip that was becoming too common these days
' Go change and come your hyungs are coming for lunch today..you need to be there' Jungkook said trying to change the topic ' I'll be waiting in the car'
Taehyung brought both his palms to his cheeks 'what is wrong with youu' He asked himself not caring for the stupid grin that was now adorning his pretty face
' Miss Frank' Taehyung called out
' Yes Mr Kim'
' Send this to my home'
🥀🥀🥀🥀🥀
' Oh.... And JK we need to go to the office tomorrow... I need to know more about my clients...they will be coming for the party...so you should also have an idea about all of them' Taehyung said as he parked his car
' I think you can select a date for the party Mr Kim... I can take this sling off tomorrow...' Jungkook said as they both walked towards the door
' I'll talk to hyung' Taehyung nodded... ' And you can call my name when we are alone'
' What happened to your mission '' You will fall for me first'' ?' Jungkook rolled his eyes
' Did I tell you that I fell for you?' Taehyung smirked... punching in the passcode ' Also I never told I'll make you fall for me'
The door unlocked and Tae pushed open the door when
' You don't have to do anything to make me fall for you Tae' Jungkook said... both of their eyes locking as they desperately tried to grasp on to anything that the other's eyes deciphered
' Welcome backk bitchess' Hobi jumped in front of the door with a wide smile making the two flinch
Jungkook was quick to pull Taehyung behind him the instant he heard the voice
' Easy there JK... it's just me' Hobi said sheepishly
' What are you doing here?' Taehyung asked ' You were supposed to come at noon'
' Jin wanted to surprise you both... But instead we got surprised... Anyway it's good that Jin and Joon knows the passcode or we would be sitting outside your house' Hobi laughed ' Anyway let's go in'
' Ah Tae you came? Hi JK...You guys go freshen up..am preparing lunch..' Jimin said from the kitchen
' Where is Jin hyung' Taehyung looked around..
' Something important came up..so he left...' Jimin continued to cut the veggies ' Joon too'
' Oh..ok..then' Taehyung nodded as he walked off towards his room
' I'll get going' JK bowed and almost turned around when Jimin called him
' JK.... Join us'
' No no... Jimin shi this is your family time.... I don't want to intrude' Jungkook shook his head
' You are now a part of this house JK... it's fine' Hobi assured
' No Hoseok shi...its-'
' Stop being the angel and be my marshmallow...sweets' Taehyung winked at him as he came down the stairs
Jimin and Hobi shared a surprised glance hearing that
' I thought you left Mr Kim' Jungkook asked folding his hand over his chest
' I forgot to show something to Jimin' Taehyung shrugged
' Ofcourse' Jungkook scoffed as he went to his room
' Marshmallow?' ' Sweets??'
Hobi and Jimin exclaimed together..their eyes almost popping out from their socket as Taehyung laughed.... Kim Taehyung laughed out loud after yearss and that too in front of his best friends...who now had the biggest of smile
🥀🥀🥀🥀🥀
Jungkook locked the door behind him the moment he entered his room as he took his phone out
' Where are you?' Jungkook breathed out the second the call was attended
' Something ca-'
' How can you just go like that?? What if Tae came back alone without me huh?' Jungkook tried to keep his voice low
' I know you won't let him out of your sight even for a second'
' Jin hyung.... What if he had done something in our absence' Jungkook sighed as he sat down on his bed
'He was not alone their Kook...'
' But hyung why did Namjoon hyung leave...I mean...he and Tae are not talking...so what was the need for him to come and go just like that?'
' I don't know Kook... We will talk about this later... I'll call you ok...'
'Ok hyung' Jungkook sighed as he laid down on the bed...his mind filling with unanswered questions
Jin kept his phone back on the table as he looked at the man in front of him ' Did you do it?'
The man nodded leaning backwards on his chair ' I have delivered it to him'
Jin took out a check from the drawer handing it over to the man... ' Hope to get your service again'
' Sure Mr Kim... Am just a call away'
🥀🥀🥀🥀🥀
Four bodies were lazily huddled up in the living room... Hobi and Taehyung watching something on the TV while Jimin was busy texting someone... Jungkook sighed as he started scrolling through his phone again...
' Oh I forgot about this' Jimin stood up suddenly
' What happened Jiminie?' Hobi asked taking his eyes of the movie playing on the screen
' Wait' Jimin said as he walked in and came out with a small box in his hand
' What's that?' Jungkook stood up...his senses alerting
' I think you have a parcel Tae....I picked it up from outside your door on our way here' Jimin explained
'For me?' Taehyung asked thoughtfully... He saw the way Jungkook was getting uneasy...
' When did you pick it up Jimin ah? I was also with you...but I didn't see it' Hobi frowned
' You were...just coming behind us...Joon and I were the first to come in' Jimin said hurriedly as he handed over the box to Taehyung
Jungkook had a hard glare all this while...his heart was screaming at him to take the box away from his Taehyung....
Taehyung saw the way Jungkook was coming closer to him... Even before he could hold back an assuring nod and a small smile was sent towards Jungkook who now stood next to Jimin..
' Open it noww' Jimin said getting impatient
' What's with you?' Taehyung chuckled as he opened the box
Jungkook had his heart beating out of his chest by each passing second but he felt a bit easy seeing the small smile that came upon Taehyung's lips when he saw the belongings of the box...
' Woahh' Hobi exclaimed when he saw the dark red roses that laid inside the box ' Taehyungie got an admirer I see'
(Ignore the black paper around the flowers)
Hobi and Jimin laughed at that as Taehyung scoffed
Whoever sent this...How did they know his address? Something is not right Jungkook's frown was deepening and why is there no name of the sender
Taehyung don't know when but Jungkook's face had become his source of peace... whenever he see a relaxed Jungkook he knows that he is safe..but now seeing him all tensed is making his own gut twist
Taehyung brushed his thoughts away as he slowly took the roses out..
Jungkook saw the way Taehyung went all still the moment his hand took hold of the wet flowers in the box...wait wet?
A sob escaped Taehyung's mouth as he looked at the blood tripping down his hand from the flower..he felt his vision blurring as his chest tightned when he saw blood pooled inside the box and the rest of the flowers were soaked in it
Jungkook pulled Taehyung towards his chest as he slapped away the box and the flowers from his hand...the blood tainting the white tiles
' N-no...he' Taehyung was breathing hard
' Tae... Tae look at me please' Jungkook cupped his face making the younger look at him who was now all shaking and shivering...his eyes fixed on to the blood in his hands
' Taehyung ah please ' Jungkook held Taehyung's bloodied hands wiping off the blood with the sleeve of his black shirt...as the younger kept trying to pull his hand back
' Tae relax' He pulled him into his arms.. making his head rest on his chest...just above his heart
' He...am scared.. hyung...he w-will c-come again...he will kill e-everyone..he' Taehyung choked on a sob as he clutched on to Jungkook's shirt
' Nothing will happen to you as long as am here ' Jungkook said with so much power that Hobi and Jimin felt a shiver run down their spine ' No one will dare to touch you'
Taehyung kept on crying as the elder rubbed his back calming him...
' Hyung' Taehyung clung on to him more when Jungkook tried to pull back
' Am here only bear...look at me now' Jungkook said softly
Taehyung pulled back as he looked at his bodyguard with wide teary eyes....his cheeks red and lips wobbling
' Just look at me...' Jungkook said as he stroked his cheeks ' Take deep breaths....' Jungkook said as Taehyung tried to follow him
Taehyung's grip on Jungkook loosened as his vision blurrered...he felt his surrounding rotate as his knees buckled....
He felt a strong pair of arms getting wrapped around him as his body went limp...all lights getting shut off... every noise fading away...just the soft far away voice asking his bear to open his eyes was all Taehyung heard before darkness engulfed him
