' Good morning' Jungkook mumbled walking into the dining room... where all of them were already seated...

' How are you feeling Jungkook?' Namjoon asked

' The same hyung...My head is throbbing' Jungkook replied pulling out the chair beside Taehyung..and he almost sat down when Taehyung sprang up from his place... scrambling out of there with his plate in his hand and settling down on a chair away from Jungkook

Jungkook poked his tongue against his cheeks as he looked down at the food Mr Song was serving him... trying to ignore what Taehyung just did

Jin threw Taehyung a glance only for the younger to smile at him mischievously as he winked making Jin roll his eyes...but a fond smile had already taken it's place on his lips.... The exchange between the two not going unnoticed by Yoongi and Jimin

' Joon hyung...can we have our session earlier today?' Jungkook asked taking a bite of his food

' Yeah sure... whenever you want' Namjoon agreed ' Also you can get rid of the splint on your hand by next weekend end...'

' That's a relief' Jungkook smiled...

The breakfast ended peacefully even though without much talks... Namjoon and Jungkook were off to their next session while Taehyung left for the stable....Jimin had some work in town and Yoongi decided to follow his hyung

' Jin hyung' Yoongi walked into his room ' Is something going on..with you and Tae'

Jin raised a brow ' Why suddenly?'

' I saw you both at the table....It seemed like..you guys are fine..' Yoongi shrugged

' If it was something you should know then I would have told you' Jin replied nonchalantly as he opened some random file from the table ' Wouldn't I?'

' Right' Yoongi nodded

' I have to submit these records by tomorrow....' Jin said opening his laptop ' If you want you can sit here with me and I'll quickly complete this..then we can do something togethe-'

' You don't trust me' Yoongi breathed out...a prickly feeling at the back of his eyes

' What?' Jin frowned... keeping the file back on the table

' I..know that you still don't trust me...and I can understand why you hate me-'

' Yoongi' Jin was now in front of him.. cupping his face making him look at him' What are you talking about? Why should I hate you??'

' I know you hate me hyung'

' I don't!'

' I saw the way you looked me when we were at the hospital...when Kook was admitted' Yoongi argued....his eyes already moist

' Why should I hate you when you were also hurt Yoongi?' Jin asked... totally confused ' Yoongs...that day I absolutely hated me..not you... If you saw me getting angry or something then I was angry at me..I still am angry at me...I hate myself for failing to keep you both safe'

Yoongi's frown deepened ' You didn't fail..that accident was my fault'

' It was not' Jin wiped off the younger's tears ' It never was your fault... I had blamed you... numerous times... I know that..but that was not your fault Yoongi..you both were kids...and you tried whatever you could to save you both.... '

' It would have never happened if I stayed home..or just left Kook at home' Yoongi mumbled guilty

' Did you know that something like that was bound to happen?' Jin asked as Yoongi shook his head ' Then how was that your fault Yoongi ah?'

Jin pulled him towards the bed making him sit before he kneeled in front of him.. taking his hands in his own 'I have seen you drowning in guilt...I have seen you taking a step back whenever it comes to deciding something for Jungkook... Yoongs he is our brother... If he ever wants his brothers to take any decision for him then he needs both of our opinions and not just mine... All these years I wanted you to take a decision on your own for Kook even if it meant you had to go against me... No matter how many times me and Kook said that it was never your fault you never accepted it...you didn't even listen... And after years I finally saw you taking a firm decision for Kook when you told me about Dr Kim... That was my last chance Yoongi...I intentionally blamed you that day because I wanted you to fight with me..I wanted you to shout at me saying that you never knew that something like that would happen then how was it your damn fault! But all you did was leave'

Yoongi silently cried..his hand tightening over Jin's as the elder continued ' I wanted you to realize that it was never your fault... A part of me was dead scared for Kook..but another part of me was relieved to see you safe... You both are my life Yoongs...I got you first... You were my first and only family..then how did you even think that I would ever hate you...Hyung loves you Yoongi ah'

Yoongi hugged the elder... crying into his shoulder ' So it never was my fault hyung?'

' Never' Jin said caressing his back ' And am sorry... My method was wrong... But I just wanted you to realize it....And you finally did'

' What?' Yoongi frowned

' That day when Jimin heard us fight and left with you...I did come behind you..I wanted to say sorry and just end this and tell you everything...but then I heard you telling Jimin that you never knew things would go downhill...' Jimin smiled ' That's all I wanted you to realize..and you did..so I was happy. But then I had to go to Seoul and then I realized how big of an asshole was I to Taehyung also...so I planned of apologize to him and also to you..but..you know how it ended up'

' I know ' Yoongi whispered

' I should have just made you sit somewhere and told you this over and over again.. should have just made you understand that you did no wrong'

' I wouldn't have trusted you' Yoongi mumbled ' I would have thought that you just wanted to calm me down..if you had done this at that time... You were not wrong hyung...'

' Idiot' Jin chuckled hugging him tightly

' Hyung' Yoongi pulled back with a wide smile ' Now tell me... what's with you and Tae?'

🍁🍁🍁🍁

' Are you ready to tell me Kook?' Namjoon had his notebook opened in front of him...a pen between his fingers ' Today marks the beginning of the second week with you here and I hope you are comfortable enough to talk openly about your dreams'

' I am' Jungkook nodded a bit nervously

' Don't be scared Jungkook' Namjoon said softly ' I will listen to you no matter what it is...and this will stay between us only'

' I know... it's just..They sound stupid hyung..my dreams...they make no sense' Jungkook mumbled

'Let's decide on that later...' Namjoon gave a supportive smile ' Let's begin yeah?'

' Yeah' Jungkook took in a deep breath ' I think..it started almost 5-6 months ago...it was a hectic day... Work was too much...I don't remember much of what happened....I just remember Hobi hyung taking me to a club..I had some drinks...rather safe to say that I got drunk...the rest is a blur...I remember going out for sometime to have a smoke..then hyung came...then I don't remember anything... the next thing I knew was this dream...and the next day I woke up with a terrible headache'

Namjoon nodded silently asking Jungkook to continue ' It was nothing clear you know... It was some vague images...some kids playing...and then some people dashing in.. picking those kids up going different ways even when they cried to let them go... There was more to that but I don't remember them... I saw someone being killed...and honestly that was scary...Then it became constant.... Then one day... I saw this dream... It was me and... I don't know the place..it looked like some palace...but I was alone there...it was all dark...a-and I tried to escape from there...but I failed... again and again..Even if it was a dream..I was very aware of my emotions... Hyung I felt miserable...I was in pain and.. I don't know I was not feeling like living anymore'

' What else did you see' Namjoon asked..his brows drawn close in concentration

' Then...it was similar.. most of it' Jungkook mumbled 'The desolated palace...no one talked to me.. Everyone were scared? Disgusted? I don't know.... The voices were never clear..nor could I fully remember what I saw...'

Namjoon saw the way Jungkook was getting lost in some thoughts...he saw the way Jungkook's voice changed when he mentioned the palace.....he could feel the fear in the younger when he mentioned about that abandoned palace

' But hyung' Jungkook suddenly looked up ' Ever since I came here... I didn't see anything...'

' What?' Namjoon frowned

' I slept peacefully... Everything was fine...until..'

' Until?' Namjoon urged him to continue

' Until yesterday'

🍁🍁🍁🍁

Where is he again? Jungkook walked out of the house in search of Taehyung... He slowly strolled into the garden only to see the elder in the middle of it watering the plants...

He watched Taehyung picking up a bright red rose that just fell to the group... dusting off the non existing dirt from it before bringing it over and looking at it with a cute pout

' Why did you had to fall off? ' Taehyung mumbled still pouting at the flower ' You were looking so beautiful on the plant'

Jungkook doesn't know what came up on him...but even before he could make some sense he was already in front of the elder with his hands already on it way to take the rose

' Jungkookie' Taehyung smiled...a hint of confusion in his voice ' When did you co-' Taehyung stilled..his eyes widening as Jungkook tucked the flower into hair...the dark red rose now sitting perfectly in between the raven locks...

Jungkook's breath hitched at how beautiful Taehyung looked just with the addition of a simple flower... Call him cheesy or stupid...but if you ask him..all Jungkook would be saying will be that even the most eye catching flower would turn bland in front of Taehyung's beauty.... Those deep grey orbs and plump lips..and the perfect nose with that cute mole... Jungkook just wanted to scream his heart out at Taehyung but no... not this soon...he has things to fix before that.

Jungkook shook his head... pushing away the thoughts as he looked back at a still wide eyed Taehyung

' You look beautiful Bambi' Jungkook grinned..his hand tucking a stray strand of hair behind the elder's ear...ever so carefully so that the flower will still remain at its place...

Taehyung tilted his head... leaning into Jungkook's palm...their eyes locked with each other.. ' Even beautiful than these pretty flowers?'

Jungkook chuckled at the playful tone ' Even in the middle of all the pretty flowers..you will always be the prettiest'

Something in the air shifted... The calm and peaceful atmosphere they were in changed to a thick suffocating silence Jungkook found hard to break

' Jungkook' Taehyung called ending the silence...taking a step closer...his voice laced with desperation ' I-'
He raised his hand... only to stop midway as if he suddenly realized something...

But Jungkook was soon to catch onto Taehyung's arm before it fell back to his side....

Taehyung eyed how small his hand looked in Jungkook's palm as the younger bought it closer to his chest... resting it just above his heart....

Taehyung took in a shaky breath as he felt the steady heartbeats of the younger.... The back of his eyes burned with tears.. his brows furrowing... and his fingers curling over Jungkook's shirt as he looked up at him

' Jungkook... I want to tell you something.. about us-'

' Jungkook ah'

Taehyung pulled his hand back...his eyes wide as saucers as he took a step back the moment they heard Jin's voice calling out

' What were you going to say?' Jungkook asked...an unknown bugging in his chest ' Tae-'

' I should go' Taehyung said rushing past Jungkook... accidentally bumping into his shoulder..the rose falling down at the impact as he ran out..

' Taehyung-' Jungkook called out and saw the other halting... He was about to bend down and pick up the flower when he heard the broken tone of the elder

' I... I was always meant to be forgotten'

Jungkook froze at his place....The pain in Taehyung's voice seemed to open a portal of old memories that were lost somewhere within him...He closed his eyes as the pain in his chest

You have to wait for me...tell me you will wait..

I can't Jungkook....We can never be one-

Please-

I was always meant to be forgotten... I don't belong to your world

A pair of arms wrapped around his middle... stopping all the noises for a mere second as a voice pierced in through his thoughts

' Jungkookie'

🍁🍁🍁🍁

' Why you so sneaky like a kitten'

Yoongi had his hand over his chest as Jimin peered over his shoulder from behind him...

' You Park Jimin...are gonna get me killed someday!' Yoongi exclaimed turning around only to see Jimin's smiled faltering ' What?'

' Nothing' Jimin shook his head

' You ok cherry?' Yoongi asked worried

' How can I not be when such a fine man is gracing me with his handsome face'

Yoongi scoffed ' Aren't you flattering me a lot?'

' If speaking the truth makes it feel like am flattering you.... then so be it' Jimin shrugged leaning back onto a wall beside the window near which Yoongi was standing 'But that won't change the fact that a mere sight of your beautiful feline eyes never failed to send an ocean of desire in my heart'

Yoongi sucked in a harsh breath.. his jaw slacking as he averted his gaze away from the younger ' Aren't you getting too brave?' He managed to ask clearing his throat

' I have always been brave'

' Is it?' Yoongi chuckled

' Yep' Jimin winked ' I already paid my price for not being brave once.... Can't afford to do that again...'

' Anyway' Jimin started again ' What were you looking at?'

' Kook and Tae...' Yoongi trailed off

' You are spying on your own brother??' Jimin gasped turning towards the window

' Shut up' Yoongi smacked him ' They were in the garden and-'

' Who is that?' Jimin's tone changed as he looked out onto the garden only to see Jungkook hugging a girl 'Who is that girl Yoongi?'

' That's his soon to be fiance...Jung Aera'

🍁🍁🍁🍁

' Jungkookie.... Finally I got you' Aera giggled

Finally I got you Jeon!

Jungkook snapped opened his eyes....his face drained out of blood as he stared at the girl in his arms

His heart was beating erratically...the voices in his head again getting louder... clouding his mind.. making it unable for him to even think properly...

Aera's arms tightened around him and with each passing second Jungkook felt as if his skin was being pricked with thorns... He wanted to ask her to step back...he needed her to step back...he wanted to push her away but it was as if he was completely paralyzed...

He opened his mouth..but his voice betrayed him...his blown out orbs travelled towards Jin whose smile slowly faded off as a frown took it's place seeing him

In the corner of his eye Jungkook saw Taehyung next to the shack beside the garden...he saw the pained look on the elder's face

Taehyung He wanted to call out... Jungkook felt his hands going cold..his whole body shivering...

His mind was a mess and Jungkook knew that he was slipping into some kind of headspace...and he needed hang on to some kind of anchor and just for that he risked to look towards where Taehyung was standing only to see the elder nowhere...

.
.
.
.
.

Taehyung leaned back onto the shack.. behind from which he was peeking...his heart clenched in pain as his eyes burned... He bit onto his lips...as he looked back one last time at Jungkook in whose arms were another girl...

A pained smile formed over his lips when he caught sight of the rose that had fallen off his hair now crushed under Aera's boots

You were also meant to be crushed off just like that Taehyung He told himself as he turned around No matter how much you love him...your love will always be forbidden...in every life

.
.
.
.
.

' I heard what happened to you' Aera mumbled pulling back from the hug...as she cupped Jungkook's cheeks 'You are shivering...are you ok Jungkookie?'

N-no... nothing is ok Jungkook looked down at her...but all he could do was stare... He tried to avert his eyes only for it to land on the crushed rose peeking from under Aera's boots

Aera gasped when she was suddenly pushed back by Jungkook..who looked like he'd cry any moment... She looked at his line of sight only to see the rose flower on the ground..the petals already fallen out now

' A-am sorry..I didn't see it' Aera was quick to apologize...her own voice panicking ' I was just so happy to see you'

Jungkook bent down picking it up...his vision blurring..his eyes still fixed on the ruined flower in his hand..

Taehyung He wanted to call out... He felt miserable... helpless...and he knows there is no need to act like this.. but his heart ached...the dull pain in his head..grew making him shift onto his knees on the ground

Aera's confused orbs met Jin's terrified ones...

' Jungkook...' Jin called softly...' W-what's happening?'

Jungkook looked up... trying to bring out his voice ' H-hyung'

' Yes baby...talk to hyung'

Talk to Hyung A sudden memory hit him... making him suck in a harsh breath

' You are scaring me' Jin's voice wavered

You are scaring me love... what's wrong?

' Jungkook? Please..Talk to me'

Talk to me my Precious...hyung will take care of everything

Jungkook groaned in pain...his hands flying towards his head.. cupping his ears.. trying to block out every bit of the voice... tears spilling from his tightly shut eyes as he hunched forward curling into himself

' Jungkook ah' Jin was scared shitless now... Yoongi and Jimin who had seen Jungkook falling now came running towards them

' N-no' Jungkook whimpered..his chest heaving ' H-hyung'

' Am here' Jin kneeled in front of him.... trying to make the younger look at him 'K-'

' No!!' Jungkook yelled scooting back..as he continued to mumble something incoherent... trying to swat away Jin's hand

'I-I'll call Joon-' But before Yoongi could even take a step-

' Move'

Taehyung rushed past Yoongi.. getting down in front of Jungkook who still had his eyes closed and arms around his ear.. trying to get away from god knows what ' Jungkook ah...'

' St-stay back'

' It's me...'

' Don't...' Jungkook cried

' Hey Precious....it's H-hyung' Taehyung said softly and saw Jungkook's struggles dying down...the younger slowly opening his eyes

' H-hyung' Jungkook breathed out looking as if in a trance...his hand quickly catching onto Taehyung's

' Hyung is here...' Taehyung said softly

' D-don't leave' Jungkook rasped out...his whole body turning cold.. ' Please-am scared'

' I won't...' Taehyung wrapped his arm around the younger.. pulling him into his chest ' Don't be scared my prince...I told you hyung will take care of everything'

Jimin stepped forward...' Taehyung...I think he slipped into some headspace' He said running his fingers slowly through Jungkook's hair...the younger's grip around Taehyung loosening ' We should take him in'

' Yeah' Taehyung nodded as he and Yoongi helped Jungkook up.... taking him towards the house

Aera glanced at Jin before running in behind them....while Jin had his eyes wide in horror as he still stared at the ground...where Jungkook was a while ago

' P-prince?'
