CHAPTER 45

"Congratulations! You're having a baby boy!"

"Oh my God" you covered your mouth with your hand as you couldn't stop a tear from running down your cheek. Unable to contain your happiness.

"A boy?" Taehyung gave a timid but shining smile to the gynecologist before turning towards you "we're having a son" he wrapped his arms around you.

You cried against him, overwhelmed by the fact that you were carrying a boy and because of the hug you craved so long for.

"Our little baby boy. We can't wait to meet you" you rubbed your belly as you cried.

"Let me take some pictures of this little man and then you can clean yourself" the doctor gave you a tissue to wipe off the lube.

On the ride home , both Taehyung and you were too busy calling everyone and telling them the news. It was only when you came home that you realized that you didn't know how to behave with him; you weren't sure if you were back to not speaking terms after the heartwarming moment you had at the clinic.

"Ehm...I'm going to take a shower" you informed him.

"Okay. Are you hungry? Tell me what do you want to eat and I'll order" he seemed relaxed.

"I don't know. You decide."

" You want me to order from that place you like?".

"From Joo ok's?" you furrowed your forehead. That was the restaurant he took you to your first date.

"Yes".

"They don't take orders".

"Oh...then I'll go to pick it up".

"You don't need to do that. We can order a pizza and call it a day" you shrugged your shoulders.

"Its not that big of a deal" he said already opening the door "I'll be home quickly".

As you went to take your shower you couldn't stop thinking about Taehyung; he seemed in a good mood. You knew, of course, that that was because of the news of you having a son. You giggled. It was weird thinking about the fact that you were going to have a son.
Nonetheless, Taehyung was always in a good mood in the doctor's office but that didn't ever transcend into your home. So seeing him happy like that made you believe that there was still hope for you building a decent relationship with each other.
And the fact that he went to grab you food from your favorite place, the restaurant where you had your first date made you squeal with joy.

You waited for him to come home with your food.

"That was quick" you noticed as you helped him with the bags.

"Yeah well I knew you were hungry so...I didn't want to keep you waiting for long" he went to grab a glass and pour himself some wine.

You took your food out of the bag and were about to go to your room.

"Where are you going?" Taehyung asked you.

"To my room" usually you ate in your room whenever he was at home. It was easier that way.

"You can stay here and eat with me in the dining room" Taehyung casually said while setting the table.

"Oh. Okay" you said trying your best to hide a smile.

You ate and cleaned in silence.

As you wiped the table you noticed the envelope with the pictures you took that day sticking out of your bag resting on one of the chairs. You opened it and went through them with a smile painted on your lips. You glanced at Taehyung whom was sitting in the living room, typing something on his laptop.

Your gaze then lowered again to one of the pictures; a close-up of your baby's face. You pouted your lips in awe as you caressed the picture before going to Taehyung.

"I think he's got your nose" you sat near Taehyung, leaning against him. "And your eyes but that was a given" you smiled happily at him before looking back at the picture.

"What do you think you're doing?" Taehyung asked you.

The cold tone shook you to your core like a freezing shower.

"Nothing..." you immediately separated yourself from him "...I was just admiring the picture and wanted-".

"You wanted...what?" Taehyung glared at you. "You think that what happened today could rectify everything? That suddenly everything was fine?".

"No, its just that I...well you hugged me back at the clinic and I thought that perhaps there was a way for us to make this work" you made yourself smaller on the couch, sinking deeper in its fabric.

You were so stupid. How could you be that stupid.

"To make what work Y/n? There's nothing here to work on".

"Yes there is. I thought that maybe now that we are going to become parents that we should work on our relationship" you gulped " to at least tolerate one another for this right here..." you caressed your bump " for him". Taehyung observed you rub your belly as sudden rage took over him.

How dared you use his son for your own selfish agenda.

"I thought that maybe we should move on. Stop thinking about the past and start building a better future for our child".

"How can I move on, Y/n?" he kept his eyes glued on your belly "Hm? How can I move on when every time I look at you I see him" he looked at you. His jaw clenched "He's everywhere where you are".

You froze on the spot as soon as you heard him say that. It was the first time Taehyung had mentioned Jungkook since that day he found out.

" I look at you and I see him all over you" Taehyung continued once it was clear that you weren't going to answer. "He's on your lips...your neck" Taehyung cupped you face with his hand, slightly squeezing your cheeks. His forehead furrowed as his disgusted glare eyed you down slowly.

"Taehyung, stop" you freed yourself from his grip, your breath quickening.

"He's on your skin..." his eyes followed his finger traveling down your neck to the valley of your breasts.

You gulped, afraid of what might happen next as you watched Taehyung sigh, seemingly lost in thought while playing with the neckline of your t-shirt.

"I hate you" Taehyung nodded while keeping his eyes glued on your cleavage.

"No..." you murmured as your eyes filled with tears "Taehyung please...please forgive me".

"No, Y/n" he shook his head. His tone was cold but he didn't seem angry. It was like he made his peace with it.

"All I ask is for a chance for us to build something for our child" you begged him.

"You killed us, Y/n" Taehyung's eyes shifted to yours.

"You killed us and you broke me" Taehyung was doing his best to hide the sadness in his eyes.

"I'm sorry" you started to cry.

"Stop saying you're sorry" he cut you off " I don't want to hear it anymore. I'm sick of it. I'm sick of you".

"Why do you keep saying that?" you asked in tears.

"Because its true!" Taehyung snapped at you. "Because I can't fucking stand your face! All I want is for you to disappear".

"You think that I like being here? With you?" you found the strength to fight back. "It's been hell in here Taehyung, since the moment I stepped foot in this house. For months I've been living my life on autopilot, indulging and obeying you at any time. And you've given me nothing but resent and contempt" you stood up from the couch, facing him as your tone got sturdier.

"What the fuck did you expect Y/n?" Taehyung asked you "Did you think that I would welcome you in with a smile and a hug after everything you've done?" he got up and faced you.

"Besides...we both know why you came here" He stepped back and eyed you down "You were afraid that I would take the baby away from you".

"Yes, because you threatened to do so".

"I'm not a fucking idiot, Y/n. You didn't have anywhere else to go because the man you were fucking didn't want to deal with your shit and left you. Otherwise you would've gone with him regardless of anything".

His words wounded you. He knew what he was doing in that moment. He knew exactly were to stab you because the moment he mentioned Jungkook your breath quickened and your head felt dizzy.

You narrowed your eyes and clenched the jaw, taking in those words without reacting.
You stared in his eyes as your lower lip started to tremble. Taehyung saw that he hurt you. He saw it and couldn't help but feel for you.

"That's exactly what I'm saying" you said as you calmed down, your voice lowering. "I wouldn't" you took a step towards him "I won't".

"All I'm saying is" you continued to speak once you reached him, stopping once you got really close to him "That you need to give us a chance to overcome this. Because whether you like it or not I'm going to be in your life and you'll be in mine forever. We are linked now and there are no amounts of threats, insults or whatever that could ever change that" reluctantly, you placed both your hands on his shoulders " I wouldn't place my happiness over this baby's. Never." You reassured him that " You must know that I would always do the right thing for this child" you placed your hand on your belly " and the right thing right now is for him to have two loving parents by his side, no matter the cost of it".

Taehyung watched you for what it seemed like minutes before speaking.

"How can I trust anything that comes out of your mouth?" he glared at you before picking up his jacket and exiting out the apartment.

After Taehyung left you decided to call Jisoo, to ask her if she could meet you and save you from another night of loneliness and self-pity.

You met her at her place. Jin wasn't home so she took the opportunity to invite you.

You spent the evening telling her about the fight with Taehyung after she had sensed that something wasn't right with you.

"I don't know what to do" you rubbed your temples "If only he would find the will to forgive me" you sighed.

Jisoo chuckled at those words.

"What's funny?" you asked, detecting a hint of condescension.

"I find it almost ironic" she flicked her tongue against her teeth " the fact that you feel the way you feel after just one argument about Taehyung not forgiving you when you won't even consider forgiving Jungkook for whatever he did six months ago".

"That's completely different" you were quick to disagree with her.

"Is it? At the end of the day its forgiveness" she shrugged her shoulders, leaving you wondering for the rest of the night.

The question lingered in your mind up until you came home.

Taehyung thankfully wasn't home.

Could you really forgive Jungkook for everything that he did to you? Did you gather enough strength to do so after so long?

You shook your head.

Not that it mattered really. Regardless of your feelings towards the matter, you couldn't do that. You were committed to Taehyung and to your future family with him, whatever that might look like.

Exhausted after everything you've been through that day, you went to bed.

As you were lying in bed, unable to sleep once again, you heard Taehyung come through the entrance door. You sighed, turning on the side.

"Hey baby" you spoke softly while caressing your belly " It's me again, it's mommy speaking" you chuckled "How are you holding in there? Eager to come out and meet mommy and daddy?" your smile faded away. "Listen..." you sighed " I know what you might think" you kept caressing the bump " I know it looks like today we've hit a bump in the road but I can assure you that everything is going to be all right" you scrunched your nose "I love you so much...and daddy loves you too, okay? He loves you very much" you fought with your tears " and I promise you that we will make it work, we will be a family that you deserve...okay?" you sobbed. You turned on the side and continued to silently cry after you thought you've heard steps in the hallway.

The day after you were having your lunch break with Hoseok.

"Look what I found!" he quickly wiped his hands on the napkin before diving deep into a bag next to him.

"Yesterday I was in the city when I stumbled upon this" he gave you a small plastic bag " I thought it was too cute not to buy it".

"Hobi!" you exclaimed in awe once you opened the bag "This is so cute" you said with the biggest smile while inspecting the cute little onesie Hoseok bought.

"Right?" Hoseok said enthusiastically " and look..." he flipped the onesie " here it says 'don't make me call my uncle'" he kept smiling "Which would be me obviously" he flicked his tongue in pure proud.

"Hobi..." you gave him another smile before returning to admire the little piece of clothing "this is...thank you" you got up to give him a hug.

"It's nothing" he said as you both returned to your seats " I know there's still a long time to go but I wanted to be the first to get him something".

"This is so sweet, but you know that Taehyung beat you to it by like five months right?" you teased him "When I found out I was pregnant he bought a pair of shoes".

"Then hey, I can be the first uncle to get him something".

"That for sure you are" you reassured him.

"I bought something for Jin's and Jisoo's little boy as well. He's going to be with us quickly".

"Yeah... just a couple of weeks. I can't wait" you clapped your hands cheerfully.

"How cool would it be if she gave birth on Jin's birthday" Hoseok said.

"Yeah, a birthday present".

As Hoseok and you were chatting over lunch Yuna passed by.

"Hi Hobi-ah!" she greeted him without even looking at you.

"Hi" Hoseok answered awkwardly " How are you?".

"Marvelous. Talk to you later about grabbing dinner sometime together?" she batted her eyelashes at him, still blatantly ignoring you.

"Ehm...sure?" Hoseok said politely although confused.

"Great. See you" she said while trotting away towards the elevator.

"See you...I don't know why she did that, we literally never went out together. We barely even speak" Hoseok was quick to add after waving Yuna goodbye.

"I think she has a problem with me or something. A couple of days ago she acted strange when I went to see Tae in his office. She ignored me then like she did just now and I don't know why. Not that I care thought" you shrugged your shoulders before sipping your drink.

"Y/n..." Hoseok hesitated "...you don't know?".

"Know what?".

"Shit...I thought you knew" he looked uncomfortable.

"Jesus, Hobi. What?".

"Taehyung and Yuna are dating".

You almost choked on your water when Hoseok said that.

"They are what?".

Hoseok nodded "They are dating...Taehyung really didn't say anything to you?".

"Clearly Hoseok" you said annoyed "What...how..." you mumbled confused.

"Its been going on for a couple of months now" he answered.

"A couple of months?!" you said, baffled " is it getting serious? Do you know?".

"I'm sorry Y/n but I don't know much about it" Hoseok apologized "But he isn't keeping it a secret really. Everyone knows".

"Everyone except me" you crossed your arms and leaned back into your chair.

"Are you angry?" Hoseok asked, observing you intently.

"No...I don't know" you answered honestly "I know that I have no right being angry or even having an opinion about this. Its his life and I shouldn't meddle but...its..." you shook your head " I don't know, its weird".

"You should stop bashing yourself over and over, Y/n. Yes, after everything you shouldn't interfere in his life but at the end of the day you are allowed to feel things. Its okay if you're hurt by this" Hoseok said.

"Its mostly because of our son" you bit your lip nervously " I keep trying to repair things with Taehyung because of our baby. He deserves to live in a normal family".

"And how's that been going on for you?".

"Not good" you admitted "yesterday he said that he hates me" your eyes saddened.

"He doesn't hate you" Hoseok disagreed with you.

"He does. You haven't seen the look he gave me" you looked at the floor, devastated by the memories of your fight the day before.

"He doesn't. you need to give it time".

"I don't have time, Hobi" you looked back at him as you said with a sturdy voice "Taehyung and I are going to have a child in four months and by then I need to make this right".

"Why by then? I'm sure that you can work on this even after the baby is born".

"Because I'm still afraid that he's going to take my son away from me" you said as your voice trembled " I don't trust him with that" you spoke with fear "And if I don't resolve this by the time our son is born I'm terrified that that's going to happen. He's a powerful man and this child is everything to me" you tortured your lips "And you can bet on my life that I'm going to fight for him to be as far away as possible from that bitch" you glared in the direction Yuna went a couple of minutes ago.

"I understand how you're feeling but I think you're taking this out of proportion" Hoseok tried to reason with you " You can't seriously think that Tae will do something like that?".

"I don't know" you shrugged your shoulders "But regardless I need to try. I owe it to my son, for him to live with two loving parents. I owe it to Taehyung because he's been through hell because of me and I owe it to myself" you looked Hoseok directly in the eyes " because no matter what I did I don't deserve to be separated from my child. No mother should".


Here's the update guys, hope you like it.

Regarding the next chapters; I was thinking of maybe uploading another part sometime next week but after that I'll be taking a couple of weeks off to deal with some stuff.

Moving across the globe is harder than I imagined and I barely have the time to do anything else but I promise I'll be trying my best to upload.

Thank you and see you next week❤️
