Chapter 36: The love in your eyes

            Taehyung held the phone up to his ear with a smile. All evening to night, he was by himself while his alpha worked a night shift. It felt so nice to finally have a call from someone. Yoongi would be too busy to even call so his husband spent most of his time by himself. “Hello?” Taehyung answered and just hearing the sound of someone else's voice made him feel a lot more better.

            “Hi, Taehyung! I know I already called but I was bored.. You really are the only one on my contacts other than business and my family members.” Hoseok mentioned as Taehyung did feel a bit bad that Hoseok seemed to be a very social alpha, but when all of those things are weighed down nothing, Hoseok needed friends the most. “So, what are you up to? I've been meaning to reconnect with you and start being more of a friend to you.”

           “Oh thank you so much! I'm glad you want to try and tie up loose ends with me.. It's been so long. I'd like that.” Taehyung answered so happily in response. It was something about talking to Hoseok to avoid hearing nothing but silence all day. It was the feeling of having someone there for Taehyung when he didn't even have his alpha around him like that. Taehyung grew to enjoy the company Hoseok supplied him with. Letting the alpha in once again and setting the issues they had before, aside and ignoring it once more. Taehyung tried not to think too much into the issues he had with the alpha before and was glad to finally have him in his life again. Hoseok struck Taehyung as a kind alpha and that was all Taehyung wanted to see from him. A happy and kind alpha that didn't ever want to come between the married couple. Of course, that's what Taehyung believed as Yoongi thought otherwise. It was in Yoongi's nature to think that Hoseok wanted so much more from the beta.

          “Hey, Taehyung… I think we should see each other one day. I think it'll be nice to finally meet after so long! I know you said you don't want me to travel so far for you… But I want to! Very soon I'll start on another movie project and I want to run it through you.” Hoseok claimed while he couldn't bear to hold a blank face when he heard the beta giggle. It was like all those things he did bad to the the beta was no more and now, they had their friendship rising between them once again.

          “Soon. I just don't want to force you to come over here. You must have gotten back from your big trip and the least I want to do is stress you out.” Taehyung added and made a smile. “You come here when you want and maybe we could meet up and eat something together or drink something! I have so much to tell you.”

          “I can't wait.. You're making me want to head over there now so I could hear it all! Ah, I can't help but to feel like I ruined my friendship with someone as great as you. I can't believe you forgave me for it all…”  

         “Ah, Hoseok it's been years since that happened! Just be happy that I don't hold grudges.” Taehyung assured. For the whole hour, they spent the night talking and bonding as friends. It was a big change compared to what happened years ago; but now they were bonding together and setting everything aside. The young beta felt like he could trust the alpha once again and being able to work with the director was enough to make the man excited to meet Hoseok after so long.

         Eventually, the two talked until 1:46 AM and by now, Taehyung was getting sleepy. It was hours into the call when Taehyung was starting to close his eyes each time. “I feel like I'm going to sleep any second!” Taehyung laughed as the alpha on the other line was listening through speaker as he kept it on the spot next to him on the bed. It was like the two were laying down together, sharing stories and secrets which brought them closer, even if they were far from each other.

         “Ah, do you really have to sleep?” Hoseok asked. The alpha was laying on his own bed while he closed his eyes to imagine Taehyung was laying on a pillow right by him… But this only left Hoseok to feel really lonely. There was things he wanted like having Taehyung by his side, but that was something he could never have. Yet, it took him a while to realize it. Of course, he never wanted to turn the page to see the fine print stating that he wasn't ever to be with the beta ever again. “Stay up a little longer… We could do this often now. Just you and me..”

       “Hoseok, I'm so sleepy… Yoongi will be here in an hour so I'll have to be asleep.”

       “How could your alpha leave you for so long?”

        “He's done it a lot before, it happens everytime. I know he goes to work so I lay on his side of the bed when I feel like I miss him. He lays in bed all day so his scent is so strong here. Sometimes… I sleep here because I miss him so much.” Taehyung continued and made a smile while his eyes were still closed like he was going to sleep. “I love him so much.”

         With such words being said, Hoseok grew silent, gazing at his phone over the pillow and pulled the blanket over his body while he tried to cope with reality right there. “How… Do you know you love him, Taehyung..?”

         “...It's simple! It's the feeling of love itself. It's like having a big crush on someone, the only difference is that your crush loves you back. Your heart never breaks and it keeps beating forever. Ah, it's so hard to explain such a feeling! You've had your fair share of dating so, you know how it feels.” Taehyung claimed and opened his eyes slightly to gaze up at the veil above the pillars of his bed.

         “I know how that feels.. But I want to know the feeling of love.. When it lasts forever..” Hoseok commented and went deep with his question. Making Taehyung smile as he yawned after.

        “I guess it's better if you find the one on your own. You'll know how it feels because you can't take my word for it, love comes in many ways and you just have to be ready for the journey ahead…” Taehyung added as he felt like he was falling asleep with each second passing by like cars racing on a track. His eyelids grew heavy as he closed his eyes and let out an exhale.

        “What if… The one I want doesn't want me…?” Hoseok asked as he nervously tapped the tips of his fingers together. “What if… I don't deserve that person? After all I've done, after so long of waiting..” Hoseok continued to himself as he let out a sigh. “I don't know what I'm saying but.. I just wish there was a way to get over… You…” Hoseok confessed. Not really noticing that Taehyung was already asleep. “I feel so stupid to tell you this now. Especially when you're an already a marked and married beta.” Continued the alpha as he let out a frustrating sigh. “I-I… I'm sorry.. Taehyung-” All of a sudden, he heard the beta snore and this made the alpha smile to himself while he dried a small tear running from his eyes. “Good night, Tae.. I'll talk to you soon.” Whispered the alpha as he was close to his own phone to whisper such things. At that moment, Hoseok hung up the long call and set his phone down on his nightstand to gaze right at it. Thinking back at what he said to the sleepy beta. His forbidden feelings for the beta still lingered, but there was no way he could get rid of them without learning the hard way that Taehyung would never belong to him.

_______________________________________

              Meanwhile, Jimin was asleep with Minho over his chest as his son curled up so silently to rest. All was silent and still.. However, Jimin just couldn't sleep and opened his eyes around 1:50 AM after being awaken by a horrifying feeling he had that ran down his spine like bugs crawling on his skin. Jimin then looked around the dark room to suddenly find an odd figure glaring right at him from the corner of the room.

             “You sleep so lovely…”

            “Jiminie! Look at me and only me!”

             “I love you..”

            “I can give you everything you want! Everything Jungkook can't!”

            “My two adorable boys in my life sleeping together… I just love you both to death.”

           Whispers and whispers of Kyunsji's voice echoed in Jimin's head and made the omega close his eyes tightly while he was caught in a sleep paralysis. All those words, sounding so sharp and clear to the man's ears left the omega wanting to shout for help; no longer wanting to stay in a horrifying state like this. “N-No…” Jimin said in his head as he let out a huff. Only then, the omega sprung up and panted as he looked around the dark room once again. No one was there but his small alpha sleeping right on his chest in a way to make sure that the omega never leaves him at night.

           “...It was just a nightmare… Again.” Jimin whispered to himself as he sat up and placed his hands over his ears. “I-It was like I could hear him so close to me… Whispering those things…” Jimin added as he let out a sigh and stood up to turn on the lights of the room. Suddenly, the feeling of the bright light over him, made the omega feel safe now. “I can't sleep like this.. Not when I get those nightmares.” Jimin continued to whisper in his sleep as he thought of the letters again. He just couldn't help but to wonder what scary threat the alpha sent out for them again. Of course, Jimin knew he shouldn't believe it, but he couldn't help but to let his mind wander and question if it was what it seemed to be. What if Kyunsji really was just outside their house and waiting for the time Jimin dumps out the mail so Kyunsji could take him and keep him forever? This was something Jimin never expected from becoming an actor, but he was one of the unlucky ones to encounter such a crazy alpha.

             It was common for alphas to turn out this way, they longed for a mate and would do anything to take down their competition. Jimin always thought this was something off fairytales or dramas, but it was what really went down when it came to alphas like these. It was very uncommon for him to know about but, he knew it now and could only wish to live a life where he could just be with his pup and husband. Living as peaceful as they were three years ago. Jimin let out a sigh as he walked out of the room so silently, making sure he wouldn't wake his clingy, young, alpha up with even the smallest sounds ever. This would cause the pup with sensitive ears to wake up and cling onto the omega once again.

          Jimin made it out of Minho's room as he looked across the hall to see the bedroom door closed with the alpha sleeping there so soundly, at least.. That's what Jimin thought. The omega stepped into the living room and glanced over at the cabinet and made sure he was extremely quiet to approach it. “I just want to read it.. Just to see what he plans.” Jimin said in his head as he gently walked over to the cabinet. Only then, he placed his small hand over the handle of the drawer and right before he could pull on it, He felt like he was being stared at. It was a horrible feeling to go through in the dark and this left Jimin to stay in place until… Jungkook turned on a lamp from behind him.

          “Looking for these, Baby?~” Jungkook asked with a sly look on his face. The alpha sat on the one seat chair, wearing his black robe over his cyan silk pajamas and black bunny slippers. Jungkook carried a glass of banana milk while the other carried the letters still in their envelopes.

           “Jungkookie! How did you-”

           “I've been living with you since I've mentored you, Jeon Jimin.” Jungkook said with a smile before taking a drink out of the glass of banana milk. “I know everything about you. When something bothers you, you just love to stick your small nose into things.” Jungkook chuckled as he then set the letters over the nightstand and brought his hand over his lap to pat over it. “Come here.”

         “I just wanted to know. Ugh, I know it won't be much of a difference anyways but I get so nosy..” Jimin whispered as he walked up to Jungkook and sat down over his lap to lean back and let out an exhale. “I get nightmares of him… I think I just miss sleeping right by you.” Jimin continued as he looked up to see Jungkook smiling down at him. “But I can't leave Minho alone..”

         “Well, you just did~” Jungkook whispered and set the cup down and reached over to the lamp so he could turn the light off. “Shh… You can sleep now, babe.” Jungkook whispered to Jimin's ear and covered his husband's eyes to let him sleep over his lap. “Don't think about your worries.”

          “Kookie~” Giggled the omega as he smiled with Jungkook covering over his eyes. Wanting the omega to sleep and forget all about the letters. Only now, the couple was together and that's all that mattered. Jungkook figured that this was what Kyunsji wanted, for them to ruin their own lives by worrying too much! But little did they know, an alpha so unstable as Sahiro Kyunsji, there was bound to be issues to come between the peace they've built up after three years.
