"How much do you love me?" Taehyung asked, his voice soft.

"Much more than you can think of", I replied while playing with my locks.

"What if I don't love you back?"

 "I will still love you the same."

"What if I leave you?"

"You cant. I will follow you to the heaven."

.......

The scene shifted to that omnious day.

"I am sorry...."

He jumped! There he laid, on the green meadow five floors below, peacefully. Slowly the dark red liquid spread all round his head.

"No- this can't be...... Taehyung you—" my words stuck on my throat. "No, no you can't just leave me like this!!"

"I am sorry too, that I can't let you go alone. We will always be together; I can't live without you!" I laughed at my words like a psychopath. I let go of my holding. Now I stood on the thin rod. Slowly I bent downwards.

"LEAVE ME! LET ME GO TO MY TAE! HE IS WAITING!!! LET GO!!"

..........

I flung my eyes open and sat upright, feeling a pair of arms wrapped around me.

"Hey... it's okay... calm down... It was just a nightmare..." Jungkook whispered in my ear.

I panted heavily, tears involuntarily streaming down my face. "Jungkook, why didn't you let me die that night?! I am tired of this sinful life! I had promised him I'd follow him to heaven, and then I even broke that promise! Why, Jungkook, why?"

"It's because you are my best friend. I love and care for my friends. I failed to save one..." he spoke, still hugging me. "Now I don't want to lose another. Besides, I have promised him to always be with you."

"You're right. I won't die so easily. It will eat me up from inside, I will suffer for my deeds. I let him die in front of my eyes!"

He broke the hug and spoke in an angry tone, "Stop living in the dark, Y/N. Even I am guilty. If only I had come a bit sooner... But we can't change our past, can we? Death isn't a solution. Try to live your life for the ones who love and care for you. Imagine how they would feel if you leave them like Taehyung?"

His words might have been bitter, but they were the truth. What had happened couldn't be changed. I had to live the rest of my life, at least for the ones who loved me. I had made up my mind. I would fight against this! I would live my life my way! And I would definitely find out the reason behind Tae's suicide.

"Thank you for the support," I spoke in a heavy voice. "I understood your words... and sorry for bothering you at this hour."

Jungkook looked at the clock. It was 3 am. He shook his head. "It's okay... my office starts at 11. I can wake up late tomorrow. Now, you go off to sleep. You're the one who needs to wake up early."

I nodded and went under my blankets. Kookie left the room once he saw everything was fine.
His words played in my head.

"It's because you were my best friend. I do love and care for my friends."

Why was I smiling like an idiot? It was a giddy feeling. It felt like he meant something more than just a friend. "Y/n, get some sleep! Your mind was going crazy due to drowsiness!"

After that, I slept pretty well. My eyes opened at 8 am. I stretched myself and got ready for the office. I went into the dining room. It was empty. Jungkook was probably still sleeping. I wouldn't disturb him then. I prepared some sandwiches for us.

I had my breakfast and was about to leave when Kook opened his door. He was in his nightwear. His hair was messed up like a crow's nest. "Leaving already?" he asked in a deep, sleepy voice which somehow managed to form a knot in my stomach.

"Yes. Didn't want to wake you up," I smiled awkwardly. "By the way, breakfast is kept on the table."

"You didn't need to... but thank you."

"Hey, no thanks and no sorry between friends! And I also owe you one."

"Right. But what do you owe me?" He his brain was still lagging due to drowsiness. 

"About last night, you know?"

"Oh," He looked away in sadness, "I didn't know you were suffering this much even to this day."

"And I didn't know you were blaming yourself to this day," I whispered back.

"Guess we both need more time to heal," he sighed.

"Let's not sulk in the morning. I'm sorry I brought up the topic," I tried to cheer him up.

"Hey, no sorry and no thank yous," he chuckled.

y/n's pov

It was a Sunday morning. Jungkook and I were both at home. Kook was busy in his room. I peeked inside and saw him aggressively tapping on his laptop keyboard. Poor laptop... it struggled so much for this boy. His full concentration was on the screen, so he didn't notice me. I closed the door without disturbing him.

"Aish! What should I do?" I lazily stretched my arms... I decided to tex the girls.

PowerPuffGirls!

(Y/n as Blossom, Jisoo as Buttercup and Lisa as Bubbles)

Blossom: 

Hey Bitches! What are you doing?

Bubbles:
Hey Y/n! Nothing much, just sulking in a family get-together....

Buttercup:
Aww, that was so sad. I was on an office trip with my colleagues. It was so much fun with them!

*Also you the the only bitch I see here.

Blossom:

Look how you beam! Changed parties so soon??

Buttercup: 
Can't blame. My girls have lost their charm.

Bubbles:
You bet! At least you all didn't have to attend these types of situations! I think my expression would make the meme of the year today."

Blossom:

I should have been there to take the snaps!

Buttercup: 
"

Stop being dramatic, Lisa! And Y/n, spill the tea."

Blossom

"Right! Last week I completed the project I was working on. I was bored as hell, I wanted to spend some time with you all, but you all seemed busy."

Buttercup: 
Serves you right.

Blossom:

Bubbles:
I'm sorry... wish I could come over.

Buttercup:
Sm here, bro.

Bubbles: 
What is the muscle pig doing?

Blossom

He is a bit busy today...

Buttercup: 
Why don't you call the other boys?

Blossom
"

Ummm... nah! too much of testosterone in a room.

Anyways, No problem, I will poke my eyes  with a fork to kill my boredom. Bye! Enjoy your time."

Bubbles: 
That seems henious.

gtg bye!

Buttercup:
bye beeches.

I kept my phone aside. Let's watch some k-dramas. I took out my laptop and started watching 'My Love from the Stars'.

"Aaahaa haa haa haaa haaa..." I was laughing so hard when I heard the door creek open.

I turned my head in that direction, and Jungkook came out. He was wearing a plain gray t-shirt and black sweatpants. He took a glance at me and went towards the fridge. Why did he seem not to be in a good mood today? I shouldn't bother him too much.

"Y/n? Do you know where the ice-cream I had kept is?" Jungkook's voice echoed from the kitchen, his head still buried inside the freezer.

Panic surged through me. I knew exactly where the ice cream had disappeared to—straight into my rumbling stomach.

"Y/n?" I heard him close the fridge door, his footsteps drawing closer to where I sat in the living room.

I swallowed hard before mustering the courage to reply, "A-actually, I ate it... Mianhae!!!"

"You what?!" His voice was a mixture of disbelief and disappointment as his eyes landed on the empty ice cream box and the spoon still clutched in my hand.

"Mianhae!" I attempted a pitiful, apologetic smile, but it fell flat.

"How could you?! It was my favorite one! I'm not going to forgive you!" He advanced towards me, his expression fierce. Sensing trouble, I leapt off the couch and dashed away from him.

"You little piece of shit! Come back!" His words trailed after me, but I paid them no heed as I sprinted across the room.

Ignoring his threats, I made a beeline for my room, hoping to seek refuge behind the closed door. But just as I was about to shut it, Jungkook's hands intercepted, preventing my escape. We engaged in a brief tug-of-war, pushing against the door from opposing sides. Finally, he emerged victorious, the door swinging open wide.

Desperate, I tried to dart into the bathroom, but Jungkook was too quick for me. He caught me and swiftly pinned me against the wall. His hands pressed against the surface on either side of me, effectively trapping me. I could feel his warm breath on my face, his scent enveloping me. His lips curled into a victorious smirk as he relished his conquest. Caught in his intense gaze, I found myself momentarily captivated.

As he pressed me against the wall, a wave of unexpected desire washed over me. Jungkook's commanding presence exuded an undeniable allure, and in that moment, he looked undeniably sexy.

"Now you can't run away," he whispered in a low, seductive voice that sent shivers down my spine.

My stomach fluttered with nervous excitement, and my heart raced erratically in my chest. I struggled to find my footing as my legs threatened to give way beneath me. Jungkook had never affected me like this before. His penetrating gaze held me captive, and before I could comprehend what was happening, his lips drew dangerously close to mine.

Jungkook's POV

Yah, Y/n! What are you doing to me? I think I'm losing control over myself, I silently berated myself. The way she bit her inner cheek was driving me wild, and we had never been this close before. Her hair cascaded around her shoulders, and her eyes sparkled mischievously, adding to the intensity of the moment.

Kiss her! Claim her! My impulsive side urged me on, the scent of her perfume filling my senses, tempting me further.

No, don't do that! She's not yours! She loves Taehyung! My conscience protested vehemently, reminding me of our friendship and her past feelings.

Wait, what? Is she... leaning closer to me? My heart raced as her face drew nearer, her breath warm against my skin. Suddenly, I felt a surge of nervousness coursing through me. My mind was in chaos, and I found myself frozen in place.

THIS IS WRONG! the voice of reason screamed within me, battling against the whirlwind of emotions raging inside. Quickly, I stepped back, breaking the spell that had enveloped us.

"Got ya!" she laughed, her eyes dancing with amusement as she slipped out of my grasp, leaving me breathless and bewildered.

y/n's pov

As I felt Jungkook stepping back, a sudden wave of embarrassment washed over me, jolting me out of my momentary lapse in judgment. I mentally scolded myself for being so shamelessly forward, my cheeks flushing crimson with embarrassment.

Noticing his loosened grip, I seized the opportunity to escape. "Got ya! You can never catch me!" I laughed, ready to make my getaway. But before I could take a single step, his strong arms encircled my waist, pulling me back with unexpected force.

Caught off guard, I stumbled, and the next thing I knew, I was falling. With a gasp, I landed on top of him, my body pressed against his warm, sweaty chest. We both lost our balance, tumbling onto my bed in a tangle of limbs and laughter.

Jungkook smirked triumphantly as he flipped me over, now pinning me beneath him. He began tickling me relentlessly, eliciting uncontrollable laughter from me.

"Ah HA HA HA!! Jung-... Koo... AH! STOP IT! HA HA!!" I pleaded between fits of laughter, squirming beneath his playful assault.

"That's what you get for eating my ice cream," he teased, his eyes twinkling mischievously.

"P-please.. HA HA.. I can't... HA HA... breathe!!" I gasped, my laughter reaching a fever pitch.

Finally, he relented, and we both lay there, drenched in sweat and panting heavily. Our gazes locked once more as we continued to chuckle, the tension of the moment dissipating into shared laughter.

As the laughter subsided, Jungkook rolled to my side, laying beside me on the bed. We were both still grinning like fools. "Y/N-ah, thank you for cheering me up! My mood was a bit off today," he said between breaths, his laughter still evident in his voice.

"My pleasure. But why were you so pissed?" I asked, concern evident in my voice.

"It's about our company, the new export has been delayed. We will have a huge loss if it is not done soon and that monkey in the face of my boss will make my life miserable." he goraned in frustration.

"Don't worry. Everything will be fine!" I reassured him, offering a comforting smile. Feeling a pang of hunger, I stood up. "Now shall we go for lunch?"

"Yes, I am hungry! What's on the menu?" he asked eagerly.

"Not decided yet. Actually, I am feeling a bit lazy to cook anything," I admitted sheepishly.

"Then shall we go to a restaurant?" he suggested.

"Good idea!"
