Thirty six

Taehyung stared at the impossible as the wings on Jungkook's back slowly disappeared and the lights in the house returned. He blinked several times and looked at Jimin. The latter's face was set. He didn't look one bit surprised.

"I can't believe this...you're an angel an actual angel" he whispered under his breath still debating the truth in his mind.

Jungkook nodded and returned to his seat. Taehyung peered at him.

"But why tell me something like this?"

Jimin and Jungkook exchanged some nervous looks.

"It's because I'm responsible for what's happening to you" Jungkook finally answered, lowering his head.

Taehyung rolled his eyes and sighed. "What are you talking about?"

So Jungkook told him everything while Jimin remained mute constantly checking Taehyung's face to watch his reaction. The younger sat speechless unable to move. He just stared at Jungkook till he had finished explaining everything to him.

"And so, I was not in my right senses!" He exclaimed. They both nodded.

Taehyung bolted up from his seat his entire body shivering. He glanced at Jimin, his eyes red.

"You! Why?"

Jimin didn't understand what he was getting at. "What do you mean?"

Taehyung cringed. "You knew it wasn't real yet you allowed yourself to get overwhelmed by your feelings"

Jimin stood up too. "What?" He shouted.

"You've only made things harder for the both of us. If you hadn't fallen in love with me, you wouldn't have married me and we won't be in this mess right now"

Jimin scoffed harshly. He couldn't believe his ears.

"Are you blaming me for having fallen in love with you?"

He ran his hands over his hair in frustration. "Aish, I can't believe this!"

He glared at Taehyung with tired angry eyes. "I tried okay, I tried not to have feelings for you but you kept coming on to me and in case you don't know, you can't control when you fall in love with someone"

Taehyung rolled his eyes. "Don't give me that. I would have done differently. I wouldn't have let my emotions get in the way"

Jimin scoffed again. "You can't be serious. Love is not something you can easily turn on and off whenever you please"

Jungkook trapped between the two heaved. "Hey guys!"

But they totally ignored him.

"I would have done it. I've been trained since childhood to keep by emotions in check" Taehyung fired at Jimin.

Jimin nodded angrily placing both hands on his hips. "Yeah, that's why it was so easy for you to betray me the way you did five years ago"

A sudden silence fell on everyone. Jungkook sat down full of tension unable to choose sides. They both stood at either sides of him glaring dangerously at each other.

Taehyung seemed to be affected by it because he sniffed finally. "You know what, I can't take this shit. I'm getting out of here"

Jimin smiled deviously. "Good luck finding the way back to Seoul without signing the divorce papers!"

"Enough!" Jungkook finally yelled. He couldn't stand their endless bantering any longer.

"None of you is to blame for anything. I'm the only one to blame. You two just ended up being tied into it"

Jimin sighed breathing heavily. Taehyung shook his head. "You see, we are natural enemies and not even the love Cupid could change it"

He turned around and left them looking after him. Once he was gone, Jimin cried falling onto his knees.

"I messed up Jungkook!" He whispered

"But you weren't wrong Jimin. Stop beating yourself up"

Jimin looked up at the angel. "Do you think he'll come around? I might have just ruined my chance to get him back"

Jungkook shrugged. "I don't know, I just think you both should have a serious talk with each other"

He smiled. "I have to go now, I'll be back"

He disappeared and Jimin sat there for a while staring at the ceiling before he decided to stand up and go to Taehyung.

Taehyung stared into nothingness, his hands behind his head. He couldn't get over their earlier argument and the words Jimin had said to him.

Love is not something you can easily turn on and off whenever you please

Yeah, that's why it was so easy for you to betray me the way you did five years ago

It bothered him that Jimin thought of him this way. He thought he was insensitive. But why should he even be bothered by what he thought?

He heard a knock on the door and then later Jimin's voice.

" Taehyungah, please open the door. We need to talk"

Taehyung groaned. "Go away Jimin. I don't want to talk to you"

"Well, I'm not leaving till you do!" Jimin yelled back and Taehyung sighed. He stood up from the bed and opened the door allowing Jimin enter.

"I'm sorry..." Jimin muttered as soon as he entered the room.

Taehyung sat on the edge of the bed. Jimin slowly sat beside him carefully reading his emotions to be sure he was okay with the both of them being near each other. He didn't seem to react so he made himself comfortable. There was silence for a while before Taehyung spoke.

"I'm not that insensitive Jimin. Despite what you think, I was really sorry for what I did to you five years ago"

"I know. You told me. I just said that out of anger"

Taehyung bit his lips. "I'm just so confused. I don't know what to think. Sometimes I think I've gotten everything together but then you do something, you look at me in a way and then I feel things and I get all confused...."

"Calm down Taehyung. We'll figure this out together. We still have time"

Taehyung smiled bitterly. "You don't get it. I don't want to feel anything for you Jimin. I just want things to be the way they once where. I can't handle being with you so give up on your hopes of trying to win me back because it won't work"

His words pierced Jimin's heart but he just put up a smile.

"I don't regret falling in love with you Tae. I won't regret getting overwhelmed by my feelings because those times when we where together, they were the happiest moments of my life"

Taehyung didn't know why his throat burned, why his eyes filled with unshed tears.

"I know you feel it. That's why you're here with me right now. Deep down, you want to feel that way again but you just don't know how. You're holding yourself back and I can't blame you"

He sighed. "But I can't give you up. Not like this. Just let me in again Taehyung..."

"Stop this Jimin. Stop doing this to me!" Taehyung said but he sounded weak, even to himself.

Jimin smiled smugly as he suddenly came nearer to his husband pressing his head against his, the tips of their noses meeting. Taehyung gasped as Jimin grabbed his hands and intertwined it.

"Do you remember how much you loved holding my smaller hands in yours. how much your hands loved travelling the length of my skin?" He whispered.

Memories passed through Taehyung's head. His head felt so light as he inhaled Jimin's familiar scent and stared at his perky inviting red lips. He remembered sucking on those juicy lips, how sweet they tasted, how good he felt when silent moans escaped from them. His heart beat faster than normal, he felt hot as Jimin's lips parted in front of him. He wanted to kiss him so badly right there but his father's face flashed before his eyes and he pulled away.

"No I can't. Stay away from me" he said quickly turning his face away from the older.

With a look of disappointment, Jimin stood up sighing sadly.

"Alright...I'll back away for now but tomorrow's another day"

Taehyung rubbed his head nervously. "No Jimin just sign the document and let me get out of here"

Jimin just smiled. He knew he was being selfish but Taehyung had responded to him. He saw that old lusty look in his eyes. He had wanted to kiss him too. It was there but it had vanished as quickly as it came but he wasn't giving up just yet.

"Would you like something to eat Tae?"

Taehyung just shook his head avoiding his eyes and Jimin took it as his cue to leave.

" Goodbye Tae, I love you" He simply said and left.

Taehyung stiffened then scoffed as soon as he was gone. Why was he trying so hard?

He shook his head and fell back on the bed. His phone was ringing. He knew it was his father but he didn't pick up. He kept thinking about what happened today. Jimin practically kidnapping him to his safe haven in God knows where, Jungkook being an angel. That was the biggest shocker. His argument with Jimin and their almost kiss. He had felt so many emotions at once but he was sure of one thing Jimin had said. He wanted to feel that again. Love. He didn't want to be cold and angry anymore. He wanted to feel that warm feeling, that hapiness but he knew that he shouldn't. It was going to destroy everything if he loved Jimin back so he was going to try as much as possible not to fall in love. He would get divorced from him but still those words Jimin said to him haunted his thoughts.

Love is not something you can easily turn on and off whenever you please!

Hope you enjoyed this chapter. I thought a lot before writing it. Have a nice day everyone!
