Chapter 21;
Come back

Yoongi walked into the gloomy room and instantly felt his eyes tear up at what he saw. He saw Taehyung's body shake from the hard tears streaming down his face, how his fingers clung onto his skin, creating marks and small trails of blood. He saw how when he slowly shut the door the younger flinched, making his mood even worse.

"Taehyung?" Yoongi spoke up, his voice in a whisper. Taehyung sucked in a breathe and quickly turned around, his back facing Yoongi. Yoongi frowned and slowly walked towards him, his hand reaching out to comfort him. But he stopped when he saw the scared look on Taehyung's face through the window. They locked eyes and Yoongi could clearly see the fear and confusion in his eyes.

Maybe he really didn't want us here... or maybe he didn't want me here. I wouldn't blame him. Yoongi thought as he backed away. Taehyung turned his head and rested his chin on his shoulder, looking deep into his Hyung's eyes.

"What are you doing here, I thought I told you I didn't want you near me." Taehyung meant to sound intimidating but with all the crying he sounds even more broken. Yoongi visibly flinched at what he said and walked forward, sitting next to Taehyung on the bed. They looked at each other in silence. It wasn't awkward, neither was it comfortable. But when they stared at each other in silence a sense of comfort came over the boys and Taehyung couldn't help but tear up.

"Why.." Taehyung sobbed. "Why weren't you there?! Why didn't you save me?! You said you would always be there for me! So why the FUCK weren't you there for me?!" Taehyung screamed, shocking Yoongi and the rest of the group outside. Jungkook stepped forward to go comfort Taehyung but Jin held him back, looking at him in a way that said 'let-Yoongi-handle-this'. Jungkook snarled but kept quiet.

"You were supposed to help me! Fake boyfriend or not, we are friends! Why didn't you help me!?" Taehyung continued, pounding his fists onto Yoongi's chest. Yoongi winced at some of the punches, finding them to actually hurt but stayed still, letting Taehyung let off some steam.

"You.." Taehyung hiccuped. "You were supposed to be there for me.. you promised me you would be there for me... so why weren't you there?" Taehyung forced out through the sobs and hiccups. Yoongi wrapped his arms around the younger's waist and pulled him closer, stroking his hair in a comforting way. Taehyung shoved his face in Yoongi's chest, letting his tears soak his shirt. Yoongi walked over to the bed, Taehyung still in his arms and laid down, Taehyung on top of him. He allowed the younger to soak up his favourite shirt - the one Taehyung gave him for his birthday. He didn't mind, as long as it made Taehyung calm down. Yoongi continued to knead through the younger's hair and whisper sweet nothings into his ear, soothing the younger. Taehyung soon finally calmed down and sighed, looking up at Yoongi. Yoongi felt a small smile creep onto his face as he stared down at the younger. He was about to go down and kiss the younger's cheek like he did last time he made him cry, but Taehyung backed away.

"You shouldn't do that kind of stuff with me when you have a boyfriend," Taehyung deadpanned, shocking the older. Yoongi blushed in embarrassment and cleared his throat, backing away and muttering a small apology.

Taehyung hated how he said that, wishing that the older would kiss him. He missed Yoongi's touch and kisses, but he has a boyfriend now. He can't allow his feelings to get in the way of their relationship. No matter how much he loves the older, he can't let his feelings destroy what he has been working so hard for.

"I'm sorry," Yoongi finally spoke, still cradling the younger. "I know what I did was wrong on all levels, I know I broke our promise, I know I'm a huge asshole. I am so fucking sorry. If I could I would go back and take Jungkook's place, saving you from that sad excuse for a human being, I would in an instant. You don't deserve to go through all this shit. No one does. I'm so fucking sorry for hurting you these past months, I'm sorry." Yoongi breathed in loudly once he finished. Taehyung couldn't help but giggle a bit at how red Yoongi's face gotten from speaking so fast. Yoongi smiled brightly at the sound of Taehyung's giggle and got an idea. He gently shoved Taehyung onto the bed and hovered over him.

Taehyung looked up and blushed at the smile playing on Yoongi's face. But suddenly that all went away when he felt light fingers dancing across his stomach.

Yoongi was fucking tickling him.

Taehyung laughed loudly, gasping as he did so. He squirmed around underneath Yoongi and the older couldn't help but laugh along with Taehyung.

"Please stop- ahahahhaha!" Taehyung wheezed out, trying to protect his stomach with his arms. But Yoongi grabbed both of them with one hand and lifted them over the younger's head and continued tickling him with the other hand.

"Okay! Okay! Sto-" Taehyung wheezed again. "I'm going to pee!" Taehyung screeched, still laughing. After that statement, Yoongi let go and laughed. After Taehyung finally stopped gasping for air and laughing, they both stared at each other in delight, never leaving each other's gaze.

"You ready to get out of here now?" Yoongi questioned in a soft voice, looking over at the door. Taehyung followed his gaze and nodded. He got up with Yoongi and walked to the door, swinging it open with a small smile on his face. The rest of the group look at Taehyung in shock, especially Jungkook.

"Hello," Taehyung smiles, waving at them. Namjoon is the first to hug him and then Jin, Hoseok and the rest pile in. Taehyung can't help but smile as if it's the end of the world. He feels bad for making his friends worrying, but he's here now.

"You guys are acting as if you haven't visited me these past couple months." Taehyung chuckled, clinging onto Namjoon as they all parted. The rest laugh at Taehyung's little comment and fall into a comfortable silence.

"Welcome back you nerd," Namjoon smiles, ruffling Taehyung's hair. Taehyung smiles up at him and looks at Yoongi.

"Thank you Hyungie~," he says, making a small blush form on Yoongi's cheeks at the sight of Taehyung's box smile.

"Y-yeah.. no poblem," Yoongi replies, his gummy smile forming on his face. The two continue to stare at each other as the rest keep talking.

Jungkook notices this and glares at them, but Jimin doesn't seem to notice. Or if he has, he's acting as if it doesn't matter as he continued to stare at Jungkook, a small smile settling on his face.
