A/n : Some slowburn Taekookism for y'all ;)
P.S: IT IS NOT SOMETHING UNKNOWN TO ANYBODY BUT JIMIN HAS BEEN GETTING A LOT OF HATE RECENTLY FOR BEING CLINGY TO JK. SO, I HATE THOSE TYPE OF PEOPLE WHO HATE JIKOOK BECOZ THERE R NO RECENT TAEKOOK MOMENTS. FIRST OF ALL, EVERYONE IS AN ARMY. AND THEN A SHIPPER. IF YOU DON'T LIKE JIMIN, YOU'RE NOT AN ARMY AND THAT'S THAT (NOT AS A BIAS LOL. AS A PART OF BTS). SO, PLS DON'T TREND THAT JIMIN SHOULD LEAVE BTS AND SHIT LIKE THAT. THOSE BOYS HAVE BEEN THRU A LOT AND IT HURTS IF SOMEONE JUST GOES ON SAYING CRAP ABT HOW MEMBERS SHOULD LEAVE. BANGTAN IS MEANT TO BE 7 AND NOT 6 OR ANY OTHER GOD DAMN NUMBER ON THIS PLANET. ANYWAY, I'M SORRY FOR THE HARDCORE RANTING, BUT THIS THING REALLY GOT ON MY NERVES. BECOZ OF SOME TOXIC TAEKOOKERS, ALL PPL WHO SHIP TAEKOOK R GETTING CRAP FROM THE ENTIRE FANDOM-😞
~ When We Did Not Know The Answers ~
* JUNGKOOK'S POV *
I looked at Taehyung, following his every move as he paced up and down the room, deep in thought.
I chewed on my bottom lip, dreading the flow of questions which would sooner or later begin falling from his plump red lips.
I blushed slightly.
I did want to kiss him...
Badly...
But...
This wasn't the time...
When there were words left unsaid...
Perhaps we were simply confused...
And this was just a delusion...
A temporary thing...
"Why?", Taehyung's soft voice brought me out of my chaotic mind.
"Huh?", I asked with a small frown.
"Why did you not tell me? Or anyone? Don't I matter to you?", Taehyung asked, hurt laced in his tone.
I hung my head low.
You won't understand...
Why I didn't tell you...
"I didn't want you to pity me. I hate when someone does that.", I mumbled.
His eyes snapped to my face and he said,"Are you kidding me? Why would I pity you!? I fucking admire you, JK!"
My eyes widened in shock.
He...
Admired me...
"W-Why?", I asked as my ears turned red.
"Because you're a fighter, JK. You inspire me to be better...", Taehyung trailed off, staring at the blank wall.
I blushed at the compliment.
"You make me want to live, JK.", he said as he walked over to my bed and sat beside me.
I looked at him, not believing my ears.
What is it...
That made you want to...
End it all...
I took his hand in mine and gave it a gentle squeeze.
He cracked a small smile at the gesture and intertwined our fingers.
"So...how long?", Taehyung asked, fixing me with a stare.
"T-Two months...", I mumbled and averted my eyes from his face retrieving my hand from his clutches and hugging the sheet closer to my body.
I'm sorry...
That I lied to you...
I heard him sigh as he put his index finger under my chin and forcing me to look into his cheek.
"Hand.", he commanded, his voice low and deep.
A chill ran down my spine, heart beating erratically.
As if my limbs had a mind of their own, I found myself obeying his command.
"Better.", he said as he resumed his seat.
"T-Tae...can I ask you something?", I said as I looked at him shyly.
He nodded as he studied me.
"A-Are y-you m-mad a-at m-me?", I stuttered.
I didn't want you to hate me...
I didn't want you to leave me...
I know that I'd hurt you...
But I wanted a second chance...
I closed my eyes, afraid of what his answer might be.
"JK. Look at me.", he said, disappointment prominent in his voice.
I dared to look at him, my vision slightly hazy due to the moistness forming in my eyes.
"If I were to be mad at you, I'd never be here in the first place. Disappointed, yes. But never mad. You must be having your reasons for not telling me things. But, I just want you to know that you're one hell of an amazing person. So amazing, that it's hard. And plus, you're cute too! So, more the reason not to be mad.", he said and winked at me.
"W-Why do you call me cute!?", I asked, thoroughly embarrassed.
"Because you're cute. Especially when you smile.", he said and shrugged.
I cracked a small smile.
Kim Taehyung...
You're an enigma...
I shook my head and asked,"So...now what?"
"Um...can I say that I have absolutely no fucking clue?", Taehyung said sheepishly as he grinned.
I smiled at his subtle boyishness.
These easy smiles...
How long will they last...
"I'll be back home tomorrow...", I said as I bit on my bottom lip.
"So...um...you wanna come over...you know...for...I don't know what...but something?", he asked, unsure.
I raised my eyebrows in his direction.
"Um...there's something I wanna do.", I said, hoping he'd not reject the proposal.
He nodded, indicating me to go ahead.
"I...um...wanna watch you...um...you know...just jamming...a performance?", I managed to say, my cheeks heating up.
"Sorry! Too mu-.", I began but he placed his index finger on my lips.
"Done.", he whispered, his bubblegum breath intoxicating and enticing.
I managed to smile, my thoughts not straight.
I wonder what he'd taste like...
"So...can I ask you something?", he asked as he played with my fingers.
"Hmm...'kay?", I said, not sure of what he'd ask.
"What's Sookyung to you?", he asked.
Sookyung...
What was she to you, Taehyung...
"My best friend.", I replied without hesitation.
My only friend...
Before you...
"Do you like her? In a romantic way?", he asked as he looked at me.
"No! We're just friends. That's all.", I said, my voice squeaky.
He hummed in acknowledgement as he went back to playing with my fingers, a comfortable silence falling upon us.
"JK...will your cancer be cured?", Taehyung asked, with worry laced in his voice and his posture stiff.
"I don't know. They'll be doing a review checkup next week. You know, to see how my body's responding to the chemo.", I said.
He nodded, absorbing my words.
I knew...
What he was thinking...
Taehyung...
I might never be well again...
Will you still...
See me the way I am...
If I become ugly...
I pout at these thoughts.
"Hey...don't you keep that pout on your face. You should smile, JK. The world needs your smile more than anything. I need it. Your Noona needs it.", Taehyung said as he brushed his fingers across my lips, smoothing it into a smile.
"Tae...how long are you staying?", I asked, using his nickname for the first time.
He looked at me, his expression a mixture of surprise and a certain softness.
"I-I'm s-sorry! Actually...uh...Yoongi hyung...and...you know...the others...uh...call you...that...so...uh...I thought...", I stuttered badly.
Now I had gone and overstepped the line...
Why was I such an idiot!?
Of course...
His nickname...
It was for close people...
"JK...stop fretting.", he said as he squeezed my cheeks with tender reproach.
"So...you don't mind if I call you Tae?", I asked cautiously.
"Of course not, Doll.", he said as he smiled.
"Doll?", I asked as I cocked an eyebrow in his direction.
He shrugged.
"C'mon! Tell me!", I whined.
"You wanna know?", he asked in a low voice.
I gulped and nodded.
He stood up and cupping my cheek, he leaned in to the point where our noses almost touched.
My heart raced and my entire face turned red due to the compromising position we both were in.
I wholeheartedly prayed no one walked in.
"Because you're the cutest lil doll I know. Understood?", he said in a low raspy voice, sensual and alluring.
I felt a jolt of electricity run through my body as my breathing hitched slightly.
"T-Taehyung...", I whispered, not being able to form a coherent sentence.
"Hmm...tell me.", he said as he ran his hand through my hair messing it up.
Not that I minded...
I shook my head.
"Tell me, Jungkook...have you ever been kissed?", he asked out of the blue.
My eyes widened.
Kissed...
"Y-Yes. Once in 8th Grade.", I managed to say, my heart threatening to beat out of its cage.
He hummed in approval before retrieving his hand from my hair and shoving it in his coat pocket.
"Sorry. Got a bit carried away. I'll see you tomorrow then. 7 pm?", he asked with a grin.
This boy...
How could he be so calm...
While my heart raced...
"Y-Yes! 7 it is!", I said, my voice ten decibels higher.
He smiled at me one last time before walking off.
"T-Taehyung?", I called out before he could leave.
"Yes?", he asked as he turned around to face me.
"D-Did you...you know...mean...um...everything...um...you said...about the...um...nickname?", I asked, stammering beyond measure.
He smirked a bit, before answering,"Of course I did, Doll." and winking, left the room.
I sat transfixed for a while before falling on my pillow, a huge smile etched across my face.
Doll...
I like it when it falls from your lips...
I close my eyes, savouring the feeling of the sound.
As deep as a stormy night...
But as sweet as a dream...
A happy memory...
Kim Taehyung...
You're making it harder...
To ignore my feelings...
But...
I have to ignore them...
Or else...
There's no going back...
A/n : And not me putting a damper on the fluff with the last sentence :")Anyway, would y'all consider the 7 pm meeting a date👀
- Logging off for now...
