"Will you stop time, if this moment passes, as though it hasn't happened? I'm scared, scared, scared I'll lose you..."

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

After they came away for breath. Hana giggled, resting her head on his chest. By now the Ferris wheel was almost done with it's trip going around, not that he was paying attention to that.

His focus was only on Hana. playing with the ends of her hair. She kissed me back. Wait...I kissed her first... Why had I done that? What made me...? But she didn't pull away.

Taehyung licked his lips, noticing they still tasted sweet. Like her.

"Hana..." Taehyung started, running his hand along her spine. "Um...Hana..."

Hana looked up at him and mouthed something that Taehyung didn't quite catch.

"What?"

Hana smiled, then mouthed it again, this time he understood it. "I love you."

Taehyung blushed, and for a second, there was just silence while he let what she said soak in. Love? Me? Why? It wasn't that he didn't believe her, it was what his perception of love was. Love was something that hurt. At least for him it did. Because no one loved him, ever. They only lied to make him feel special for a second or two so later they couldn't feel guilty about putting him through hell.

And then he didn't know what to do. No one had ever said that to him. No one ever looked at him like Hana did. And now that he knew what he was seeing in her pretty deep brown eyes. He realized what he'd been seeing in Mrs. Park's eyes, what had been there all the time, but he'd denied seeing. Love.

Taehyung smiled back at Hana. "I love you too."

~~~

After the Ferris Wheel made it's round, they got off and went to go see other things in the park. Including the fun-house, where Taehyung had accidentally scared her, made a million silly poses in the trick mirrors, and hugged her once or twice. It felt nice to hug her, it felt nice that she didn't push him away, that everything was okay for once. And she doesn't think I'm crazy.

After that, Hana said she wanted a Teddy bear to take home, so they stopped by a booth where they were giving out big huge fluffy teddy bears if you could hit so many balloons with a dart.

Taehyung didn't consider himself very good with aim or anything like that, and the sharp point reminded him of knives, and stabbing and Appa... But either way, he decided to give it a try. Since he had an extra dollar or two from what Mrs. Park had given him. And if Hana really wanted it...

After maybe 10 tries, most of them terrible, and missing extremely bad, he got the hang of it enough to win one of the medium sized bears at least. And Hana seemed happy with just that.

If you're happy, I'm happy.

Maybe that's what Jungkook meant. Maybe that's why he threw away what he felt for the sake of me being happy...

Hana held the bear close the rest of the day as they walked around, going on a few rides, getting ice cream and sitting at a picnic table. Hana was all smiles, and Taehyung had to admit, he was doing more smiling then he'd done in what felt like years. Why am I so happy all of a sudden?

Hana tapped his shoulder and offered a spoonful of chocolate ice cream to him.

Taehyung blushed. "You want to--."

He stopped when Hana mouthed. "Feed you."

Taehyung blushed, but opened his mouth anyway. It was hard to deny her, if that was what she wanted, he'd do anything she asked. I don't ever want Hana to go, I want it to stay like this forever.

Hana fed him the spoonful of ice-cream, and Taehyung took a spoonful of his chocolate ice-cream and held it by her mouth.

"Hana...! Open up!" He said, grinning. He wasn't sure if he was smiling so big because of how giddy he was, or because he knew how much Hana liked his smile.

Hana laughed before eating the bite of ice-cream Taehyung was offering. She's so cute.

Taehyung stared at a bit of ice cream at the corner of her lip before leaning over and licking it off, blushing the whole time. She'll think I'm weird, why did I do that?

He looked down at the table, avoiding her eyes. Even hearing her giggle, he didn't want to meet her eyes. Not until she made the teddy bear give him a 'kiss' on the cheek, then he looked up, seeing she apparently didn't mind it.

When he looked, her eyes widened, then pointed somewhere behind him. Taehyung followed her finger and found she was pointing at a big ornate clock tower, decorated in pastel colors and oddly shaped shingles, the numbers on the clock done in roman numerals. It read 10:25.

Taehyung realized why she was pointing to it. Her mom had said home by ten. The park closed in about half an hour, but even then, her mom would probably be upset that they'd stayed out for so long, because it would be at least 15 minutes to walk back to Hana's house.

He hadn't even noticed so much time going by, but the clock wasn't wrong, it was even dark, but he'd barely noticed the sun's absence.

Hana stood up, grabbing the bear and her jacket and pulled Taehyung up too. Her Eomma would probably be worried, her Appa would probably be angry with Taehyung for not paying attention to the time.

Hana pulled him to the parks nearest exit about as fast as she could, and he felt bad that he hadn't taken notice of the time until now. He should have at least thought of it, but at the moment, time was the furthest thing from his mind.

After they were out of the park, Hana stopped to rest for a second. Her leg must still hurt.

"Ah... Hana?" Taehyung started. "I could...Carry you if you want?"

~~~

Taehyung gave Hana a piggy-back ride all the way back to her house. Which was kind of exhausting, but he didn't mind carrying her, she was cute, and how sleepy she'd started to get when he'd started carrying her was sweet. Even if he was kind of in a rush to get her home, he enjoyed the walk there.

Even though, by the time they got to Hana's house, she was fast asleep, he still liked spending any sort of time he could with her. My angel.

When he rang the doorbell to her house, Hana still asleep on his back. Her father answered the door, and as soon as he saw him, immediately started yelling at him.

"An HOUR! Kim Taehyung, where the hell do you get the right? What the f*ck did you think? Do have any idea how damn worried I was, with you being an hour late while out with my only daughter?!"

Taehyung swallowed, Looking down at the ground, and biting his lip, "I...I didn't mean it..."

"You better pray you didn't. If you did, I'm going to skin you alive, you son of a b--."

"Son of a who now?" Mrs. Lee said, coming to the door. Taehyung was happy to see her, at least then, Hana's father stopped. Mrs. Lee smiled at Taehyung, then went over to him. "Did Hana pass out?"

Taehyung nodded. "Her leg hurt so I..."

"And I imagine carrying her would take more time then if you were both walking." Mrs. Lee said, pursing her lips as she eyed her husband. "I'd imagine you'd be kind of late."

"Don't make excuses for him." Mr. Lee said. "That wouldn't have taken that long even if he did carry her--.

Mrs. Lee rolled her eyes. "Oh my god, why do you have to be so--?"

"For all I know, that extra time could have been him taking her virg--."

"I forgot." Taehyung interjected. "I lost track of time, I wasn't paying attention. It's my fault."

Mrs. Lee bit her lip, then did made a little noise like a squeak. "You're. Such. A. charmer!" She pinched Taehyung's cheek. "This guy? Do that? Look at his cute face, I can't picture him doing anything like that, right, Mr. My-daughter-needs-to-be-in-a-glass-case? I'm sure he didn't mean to make us worry."

Mr. Lee squinted at Taehyung. I didn't do anything, I didn't mean it, please believe me. It's my fault, but please forgive me. "Fine. I guess she is home safe..."

Mrs. Lee grinned. "Good. Now let him in so he can get Hana in her bed."

Mr. Lee glared at Taehyung, but stepped out of the doorway so Mrs. Lee could lead Taehyung through the house to Hana's room. It seemed like the only thing keeping Mr. Lee from punching him in the face was the fact that he was carrying Hana.

Mrs. Lee opened the door to Hana's room and went in first clean up Hana's bed, which was covered with dresses laid out over the bedspread.

Hana's room was themed purple, with all different shades, though she seemed to also like the color blue because her desk, and bedframe and closet door were a deep blue. But her sheets and the walls, and her dresser were purple. On top of her dresser was a big mirror with stickers all over it, most of them little flowers, or cute characters, like Pikachu and Hello Kitty. In front of the mirror was all sorts of makeup laying astray along with clothes that looked to be covered with removed makeup.

"She had a little fashion show before going with you, couldn't decide on anything. Not even her makeup." Mrs. Lee laughed, then held up a halter-top black dress that looked a little shorter then knee length. "Agree with me that this is too sexy, though, because she almost walked out in it. Reassure a overcautious mom for a second."

Upon seeing the dress, and imagining Hana in it, Taehyung blushed and bit his lip.

"Yup. Too sexy." Mrs. Lee laughed. Then took the dress and hung it over the back of a chair, finishing cleaning off the bed. "Go ahead and see if you can get her on the bed."

Taehyung nodded, then eased her down onto the bed. She looked like an angel when she slept too, her mouth slightly open, and her eyes fluttering as he moved her.

Mrs. Lee handed Taehyung a folded white plush blanket decorated with images of roses, while she went to take Hana's shoes off. Taehyung unfolded the blanket and laid it over Hana, Feeling his face get hot as he did so. Taehyung leaned over and kissed her cheek.

Mrs. Lee cleared her throat. "Yup, that'll do it." Taehyung almost expected her to be upset with him, but when he looked she was smiling.

Hana's mother gently ushered Taehyung out of the room, following him and closing the door softly behind them, looking like she'd just done something mischievous with the grin she had on her face.

"I...Should probably go home. Mrs. Park will think..." Taehyung started, voice dipping lower then he'd thought it would.

"Mrs. Park? Your mom, you mean?" Mrs. Lee asked.

Oh... Hana's mom wouldn't know any better, that must have been what she assumed when she met her, apparently not questioning the discrepancy in surnames. But I guess she is going to be my mom anyway. It still felt odd though, like that couldn't happen. "Yeah, my mom..."

Mrs. Lee raised an eyebrow. A few obvious questions running across her face. "Okay... Well, I'll drive you home, Taehyung, it's late, I don't want you walking home by yourself." She gestured out down the hallway toward the living room. "And then we can go out the back and avoid Mr. Lee--AKA, Mr. Grumpy-britches!" The last part probably specifically for Mr. Lee since she'd said it loud enough to get a groan from the living room.

~~~

Mrs. Lee dropped him off at the house. Though through the ride, all she'd asked about was what happened during the date, what they'd done, everything like that. Taehyung didn't answer with nearly as much detail as to what happened between him and Hana. That...he couldn't tell Hana's mom, that was private.

When Taehyung came to the front door, he heard yelling coming from inside. Yelling? What would--? He tentatively knocked on the door anyway. Maybe it's nothing.

Though he told himself that, he felt that couldn't be true, not this kind of yelling, this was the kind of yelling that was more like a heated argument. And it was Mrs. Park. When had Mrs. Park ever yelled?

Jimin opened the door, looking upset. Not mad, but somber. Not like himself. Upon seeing Taehyung, he looked back over his shoulder, then pulled Taehyung inside.

On the way to the stairs, Taehyung could tell the yelling was coming fro the kitchen, and he could even make out a few words. "GET THE HELL OUT OF MY HOUSE, YOU SICK BASTARD!" Came especially clear from the kitchen.

Taehyung had never heard Mrs. Park talk like that, so completely without composure, without a filter, half screaming. He wondered who she would even be talking to, because on the way upstairs Kyung-mi was sitting at the top of the stairs, expression blank, just looking at him evenly as he came upstairs.

He didn't ask any questions at all until Jimin led him into his room and closed the door, leaned on it and looked at the floor.

Taehyung sat on the bed. "Jimin, What's--?"

"It's that doctor--From the Mental hospital." Jimin started. "He's going on about some bullsh*t that we can't adopt you... That she's unfit to take on the responsibility... He said that she's neglecting her job to give you and Kyung-mi pills you don't need, he doesn't think either of you should be here...with us..."

Taehyung swallowed. That's Bullsh*t. That wasn't right, that... I don't want to go. Don't make me go back. Get him out of the house, get that stupid-ass doctor out of the house. I want him far away, as far away as possible.

Jimin looked up at Taehyung and smiled, surprising Taehyung. "It's bullsh*t. I'm sure it'll be alright, don't worry, Taehyung." Jimin sat next to Taehyung, a mischievous grin coming to his face. "So how was it? Good? You have a hickey."

Taehyung knew what Jimin was doing. He was lying, pretending like everything was alright. Maybe he wanted to believe it was alright. Taehyung blushed in reaction to what Jimin said. Maybe I want to believe it's alright more then anything. Taehyung reached up to rub his neck absently.

"Dude, you're so caught, you don't even have a hickey. Must have kissed Hana then, right? I knew it." Jimin said, playfully punching Taehyung's shoulder. "You better tell me all of the details."

Jimin is so good at acting like he's okay. Even though I know he's not. It's almost convincing... But then he could still hear Mrs. Park arguing downstairs.
