Fake Boyfriend || A Taekook Fanfic - Chapter 29: Chapter 29

JUNGKOOK'S POV
"So it was on purpose?" I asked Namjoon after I left Taehyung in the infirmary. The nurse chucked me out when she saw me annoying Tae. And here I was with Namjoon, discussing about the wound on Taehyung's ankle. It wasn't an accident and the person who did it wanted him to suffer. We already have a guess at who it is, but without evidence we can't act.
"We tried to find the person who bumped into him, but that person wasn't from our school and he was an outsider," Namjoon said.
"How the heck did he get in?"
"He must have acted as a student and when he entered the perimeter he must have hid somewhere before attacking Taehyung."
"I see. Our school's security sucks."
"Who do you think did this?"
"My mother. Who else would do that?"
"What about Leishi?"
"Leishi is also involved in this, but the one who must have planned this was my mother."
"We need to protect Taehyung. I don't want to sound annoying or anything like that, but it is your responsibility to take care of Taehyung since, you were the one who brought him into this."
"I know and I won't argue about that. It's my fault so I will take the responsibility."
"Good. I will be going home now. The rest have already gone and I have to taste Jin's meatballs. So see you later."
"Jin's meatballs?" I raised my eyebrows at him and he nodded, "Sounds wrong to me."
"How does it sound—you are such a pervert Jungkook," he slapped his forehead with his palm and I laughed. Pervert, I am.
"Hyung, you like Jin-hyung, right?" I asked him and he suddenly turned bright red. Caught you.
"No I don't. We are just brothers. Now I am going to go. Bye," he ran off and I waved at him. Looks like we need to get these two lovebirds together. Was he actually going for the food meatballs or for Jin's meatballs? I hope it is the first one. I can't imagine the second one. Don't imagine it!
I turned back to the infirmary door and pondered over whether I should walk him to his home or just leave him here to suffer. The door opened and Taehyung limped out. He waved good-bye to the nurse and with the help of the walls, he began to slowly walk. It must be painful. I walked towards him and tapped his shoulder lightly. He turned back and saw me.
"What are you doing here?" he asked me and I held his right hand in mine.
"Waiting for my boyfriend," I said and kissed his hand. He turned red and yanked his hand from my grip. Someone is blushing~
What the hell are you even doing?" he half shouted and half whispered to me.
"Showing my love to my one and only babe," I winked at him and he made the disgusted face at me. You know this is all an act? Just shut up and follow it.
"I think I am going to hurl if I see you act even more affectionate towards me," he started to walk towards the exit. I rolled my eyes and followed him. He was doing fine, but each step he took seemed to make him more and more tired.
"How about I give you a piggyback ride?" I asked him and his eyes immediately lit up. But it suddenly dimmed down and he looked away.
"Your back will pain if you carry me all the way home." So that was the problem. Does he know that I am really strong and can actually lift a hundred kg? He doesn't know that. What a shame!
"It's okay. I have done this several times," I said.
"With all the girls?"
"Someone is jealous," I teased him and he pushed me away. Someone is jealous and angry," Oy! I only did it for the gang and girls weren't involved in it."
"Really?' he asked me and I chuckled.
"Why? Are you jealous or something?" I asked him and he immediately shook his head.
"In your dreams, mutton head."
"So I will give you a piggyback ride?" I asked him and he slowly nodded. For some reason, I was overjoyed by his response. I knelt down and he jumped on my back.
"Oof! Did you gain weight?" I teased him and he hit my shoulder.
"I did not! Now move my stupid bunny," he yelled and I rolled my eyes.
"My stupid bunny? I am your bunny!" I exclaimed with joy and he whacked my head.
"Just move your ass now," he said and I chuckled. I got up and he buried his head in my hair, again!
"I love vanilla," he muttered and I smiled. For some reason, the picture of the vanilla and chocolate cake came in my mind. Too bad we aren't real couples, or that would have sound so romantic that I was thinking about our love for one another when I was eating the cake.
Not too many people were around when I carried him home because the sky was turning cloudy and maybe in a few hours, it could rain. I heard a soft snore behind me and I chuckled. Looks like he fell asleep. How cute for him and how miserable for me!
My legs and back were paining and my muscles were on fire. Just a few more kilometers and I can finally rest. Suddenly I started feeling dizzy. Shit! I fastened my pace. Why am I feeling dizzy? Wait... I forgot to eat breakfast and lunch today. And I even skipped dinner yesterday. Shit! Shit! Shit!
Right now I had no energy left and my heart was beating really fast. I was getting tired and my vision started to get blurry. Just a little more. I saw Taehyung's house come in view and with the last bit of energy which was left in me, I ran. Ran as fast as I could and I finally reached his house. Same time, the rain began to pour heavily and luckily, none of us were drenched. I rang the bell thrice and I could feel the world spinning around me. Just a few more seconds. The door opened and a furious Mrs. Kim opened the door.
"What made—Jungkook? Taehyung! Wait what is going on?" she asked and her angry face turned to a worry. I walked in and slowly placed Taehyung on the sofa, ensuring that I don't wake him up from his beauty sleep.
"I shall be going now, Mrs. Kim," I said and headed towards the door. I could feel my head throbbing with pain.
"Jungkook dear. You don't look so well. Why don't you rest here for some time?" she asked me and I shook my head.
"I have to go home," I reached from the door knob and suddenly I fell on my knees. Mrs. Kim ran towards me and asked me whether I was fine.
"I am really fine. Just a broken back that's all," I laughed but she had a serious expression on her face. I got up and when to the door, "Good bye, Mrs. Kim."
Just as I reached the door knob, suddenly someone whacked my neck on the side and I started to lose conscious.
"It's for your own good, Jungkook." And then it went completely black.
"Jungkook are you alive?"
Who was calling me? Wait, am I dead? I got up and looked around me. I was surrounded by flowers and green grass and in front of me was a smooth, flowing river. Where am I?
I stood up and looked around the unknown place. Why do I feel I have been here before? Nah. it can't be. I have never visited a place like this before.
"Jungkook. My mom will kill me if you don't wake up."
A voice whispered around me and I tried to find the person. Who was calling me? Wait a second....why does it sound like Taehyung? He was the only one I know who would say something like that.
"Jungkook. Don't die. Mom will kill me if you do so."
Suddenly the valley of flowers and the river started to fade and it turned completely black. And then I saw a light and it started to grow bigger and bigger until, I saw Taehyung's face.
"You are alive! Thank god! I thought my mom killed you," he said and he hugged me all of a sudden. Wait, what actually happened to me?
"Hey Taehyung. Where am I?" I asked him. He pulled away from the hug and smiled.
"You are in my house and in my room," he said and I blinked once, twice and then I remembered. I was tired and dizzy and then someone whacked me. Oh wait, wasn't that someone Mrs. Kim? She knows karate?!
"My mom knocked you out because you looked tired and dizzy. Now she feels bad that she almost killed you."
"Killed me?" I asked him and he nodded. Shit! What is with this family?
"Okay, I have to go now," I said and got up, but suddenly my les gave out and I fell down. Luckily, Taehyung grabbed me and threw me back on the bed.
"You are still tired and you haven't eaten anything," he said and pointed to the time. I looked at the clock on the wall and gasped. 10:01 p.m.
"I have been sleeping for so long. Why the heck didn't you wake me up?" I asked him and he sighed.
"I woke up an hour before you did," he said and I groaned in annoyance. Well one good thing was, I don't need to go to my house and see those bitches at all. Hehe.
"Mom told you to stay at our place for the night." What? Me in his place in the middle of the night?
"I don't think I should stay. I will be going right after I finish eating my dinner," I said and suddenly the door banged open and Mrs. Kim stood there. I gulped and nervously smiled at her.
"Oh dear Jungkook! Are you fine, now?" she pulled Taehyung away and sat in his seat, "I hope I didn't hurt you a lot. I was just doing it for your health, dear."
"It is really fine, Mrs. Kim," I grinned and she heaved a sigh.
"Thank God!" she said.
"He is just saying that so you don't kick him again," I looked towards the door and saw Mr. Kim leaning against the wall, "Oh hi Jungkook. How are you feeling now? You must be a really strong lad to take this lady's devil punch."
"What did you say?" she growled at him and he nervously chuckled.
"Dinner is ready. Want to eat?" Mr. Kim asked me and I nodded. How can I refuse them?
"That's wonderful!" Mr. Kim exclaimed with joy and got up to prepare the dining table. She dragged her husband out and slammed the door shut. I could hear her scolding him and I softly chuckled. Poor Mr. Kim.
"Were shall I be sleeping?" I asked Taehyung who remained quiet ever since his parents entered inside.
"My room."
"You-your room?" I asked and he nodded. Sounds really bad to me. Wait a second, we are not lovers so this will be like a sleepover between guys. Yes. A sleepover.
"You can take the bed if you want," he said and walked out of the room. Uhmm...okay...
I went downstairs and sat at the table. We began to eat and as usual Mr. and Mrs. Kim began to quarrel with each other and I and Taehyung just ate. After we finished eating, I decided to sleep because I was really tired. Taehyung also joined me. Mostly because his parents told him to keep an eye on me.
So here we were. Me on the bed and he was on the floor. He had got a thin mattress from his closet which he usually used during sleepovers which he had with Jimin and sometimes with Jin. He took his laptop and placed it on his lap and switched it on.
"Aren't you going to sleep?" I asked him.
"Nope," he said and I sighed. Anime freaks never sleep, huh?
"Do you want me to switch off the lights?" he asked me and I nodded. The bright room suddenly turned  dark, except for a ray of light coming from Taehyung's laptop.
"When are you going to sleep?" I asked him
"After I finish ten episodes," he said and I sighed. Seriously? For how long does he sleep?
"Uhmm...thanks for the ride," he said and I smiled to myself.
"No problem. But next time don't fall asleep on me. It is kind of annoying to have someone snoring near my ears."
"I was snoring?" he asked me and I chuckled.
"Yeah you were. But you weren't loud. You were like softly snoring."
"I see."
"This is just my curiosity, but how long do you sleep?'
"Two hours." I sat up and stared at him. His dull face was illuminated by the screen light and he looked like a ghost.
"Two hours?! That is really less. You know you are supposed get more sleep. But you still have the energetic spirit in you."
"That's because I am used to it," he sighed and continued, "I only sleep for two hours or less but never more. But to tell you the truth, this is the first time I slept for more than two hours."
"First time?"
"Yeah. When you carried me. That was the first time. Even my parents were shocked when they saw me sleeping soundly."
"But why? It is because of anime."
"Nope. I have insomnia. So I rarely sleep. That's why I watch anime and when I feel sleepy, I sleep."
I sighed and laid down on the bed. So that was the reason. But even with so little sleep time, he had the energy of a gorilla. Wait...he said he fell asleep when I carried him. Then...
"Why don't you sleep with me?" I asked him and it turned silent. I could hear the insects chirping and the rustling of the leaves outside. I heard him sigh and waited for him to say something, like a 'YAY!' or a...
"PERVERT!" he yelled and something collided with my face. A pillow! I got up and threw it back on him, but sadly, it hit the wall behind him.
"I didn't mean it in that way. You said that you fell asleep when I carried you. So what if you slept next to me, then you can sleep soundly again." I said to him.
"No thanks. I forgot to say this to you, but I don't sleep with perverts. And plus, I also get nightmares."
"Why don't you try it? You will never know if you try."
"No."
"Yes."
"I said no!"
"Oh come on. It is not like we will do something."
"Nope."
"Only once."
"Fine. But it is only so that you can shut your mouth." I heard him get up and smiled to myself. He pushed me to the wall and slept near me.
"This is a single bed. I might as well sleep on the mattress," he said and got up to leave. But I pulled him back and wrapped my arms around him.
"What the heck are you doing?" he tried to wiggle out but I tightened my grip around him.
"Sleep," I said and he stopped moving. I smiled and placed my chin on top of his head. Chocolate. Yummy! I heard a soft snore coming next to me and I giggled. He really fell asleep. I nuzzled closer to his neck and whispered, "Good night, TaeTae."
