kim taehyung

"y-your boyfriend?" jimin choked out, holding onto taehyung with everything he had. taehyung nodded his head yes, a tear slipping from his eye due to the elder's state. "why m-me?" jimin suddenly asked after a few moments of deep thought, looking up at the taller with sad eyes.

"what do you mean, why me?" taehyung asked, sitting down on the floor next to the boy with faded pink hair.

"out of everyone you could've chosen, why me? why the poor, abandoned, useless teenager that has to be taken care of? i'm just a burden to everyone, and that's all i'll ever be," jimin answered, keeping his head between his knees, trying to steady his breath. "are we even soulmates?"

"of course," taehyung laughed, slapping his knee. "of course that's what this is about." jimin looked up at the other with confusion. "of course you ask, are we even soulmates. that stupid word that has controlled most of our lives. that stupid word that stops us from experimenting. that stupid word that seems more important than anything else in this fucked up world. soulmates. if i'm being honest, i'm not one hundred percent positive that we're soulmates. but i'm pretty damn sure i want to be with you. before you came along, i didn't care about soulmates, i thought it was just fake news. but you changed me. i've never felt this way towards anyone before. i've never felt at home with a stranger, but when we were in the sickroom that day, you were my home. and i've been trying to figure out your feelings towards me for a while now, to see if this was just a mistake. if it was only a huge crush, and you didn't feel the same way. but please, tell me you feel the same way."

jimin was absolutely speechless. he felt like an idiot. he felt like this was all his fault. he felt like he couldn't breathe anymore.

"i'm sorry, i'm so sorry, t-tae," he choked on his tears, falling deeper between his legs. "i'm just s-scared. scared o-of love. scared that w-we won't work out."

"jiminie, calm down. we can take it slow— if you want to take this anywhere that is. i just want to be with you, i've hated all this tension between us." taehyung rubbed kind circles into jimin's back.

"o-okay. we'll take things slow," jimin finally said, catching his breath.

"thank you, chimchim," taehyung smiled, kissing jimin's small nose. "will you be mine?"

"yes. yes i will, taehyungie."
