🍓 Synopsis 🍓

Taehyung lets jungkook color his tattoos after he has a nightmare

The male gasped as he abruptly sat up, chest heaving up and down as he took heaps of air into his lungs.

"shh, you're okay. You're okay"

He heard a soothing whisper beside his ear while he felt a warm hand rub his bicep from behind. He looked at the the wall for a few moments before breaking down into loud wails.

Taehyung, his boyfriend, who was right beside him took him into his embrace with a small sigh.

"ma-ake the-m g-go awa-ay"

Jungkook cried out, slightly banging his head against taehyung's chest in frustration. The elder male's face contorted into a frown as he felt a small tug in his heart.

He knew how much little sleep jungkook had been getting since the past few weeks, after watching his mom take the last breaths of her life right in front of his eyes. The way her face held so, so many emotions haunted jungkook every night.

"I'm trying, koo. I'm trying..."

Taehyung mumbled and rested his head firmly against jungkook's, making sure he can't move his head anymore. Jungkook just cried harder, his fists that were latching onto taehyung's hoodie  are now limply lying on taehyung's hips.

The more the memories flooded his mind, the more he cried. And the more he cried, the harder it became for the vulnerable male to take breaths. Taehyung, who noticed this, cupped his face and looked at him with worry.

Of course, jungkook cried every night but this night it seemed different. He was crying till was inducing a panic attack and taehyung knew all too well what was happening.

"hey, hey calm down."

He asked frantically, pressing urgent kisses all of the boy's face.

"deep breaths with me c'mon"

He quickly tried assisting jungkook with his breathing, which worked till an extent until jungkook had broke down again.

"c-c-colori-ing-"

Jungkook choked out, his boyfriend immediately understanding what he wanted. Around a week and a half ago, jungkook's therapist had given him a coloring book for times like these. It's main purpose was to distract him from whatever was going on his mind, relaxing him, and it really helped for times like these.

After a moment of hesitation, taehyung left jungkook on the bed by himself and bolted towards the book shelf where the hook was usually kept, just it wasn't this time. In worry, he looked back at jungkook who was looking at him with desperate and questioning eyes.

"where'd you keep it the last time?"

He asked a soft loving tone. Jungkook just shook his head, indicating that he didn't know. Taehyung looked around a little more, his actions being fast. But as he heard jungkook's breaths getting shallower and his eyes closing, he knew he needed to do something.

It didn't even take him a second to realise something. Walking back to the table placed in the corner of the room with fast steps, he took hold of the huge bucket of markers, that he had bought for him, and made his way towards the bed.

"I couldn't find the book, sweetheart. How about you color my tattoos hm?"

Taehyung carefully looked at jungkook who gave him a small nod. Nodding himself, he quickly threw his shirt across the room and layed down on the bed after handing jungkook his bucket of markers.

Jungkook sniffled and straddled his boyfriend's back, his eyes now racking over all of the beautiful tattoos on his muscular back. Taking a random marker, he adorably opened the lid with both hands and started coloring, not minding how he was coloring a bunny(which basically indicated him) green.

This worked like magic. It hardly took a few minutes for jungkook to calm down, only letting out small sniffles here and there. Meanwhile, taehyung was having the time of his life. He stared at jungkook through the built in mirror of their wardrobe that was opposite to the bed. It was almost impossible for him to wipe of the smile off his face.

I mean, how can he? When jungkook was looking so freaking adorable, sitting on his back with a big hoodie over his small body as he concentrated on his coloring. His chin touching his chest while his lips were in a small adorable pout, red button nose scrunch ing up with every sniffle while his eyes elegantly blinked.

It was just a sight no one would ever want to take their eyes away from. Taehyung noticed how his eyes were slightly droopy as his smile widened. He looked at the time and realised it was almost going to be 4 in the morning.

"you can lay down sweetheart,"

He softly mumbled, not wanting to scare the concentrated male. Jungkook looked up at the voice and stared at taehyung for a moment, processing what he just said before plopping his upper body onto his back without a second thought.

Taehyung opened his mouth to say that he meant for him to sleep on the bed but quickly shut himself up as he looked at how peaceful jungkook looked while coloring. He wasn't heavy at all anyways so he decided to keep mum.

Feeling exhaustion bubbling within him, taehyung folded his arms underneath his head and adjusted his head a few times on them until he was comfortable. With a tired sigh, he kept staring at jungkook through the mirror, not realising how his eyelids fell, jungkook's soft breath and sniffles lulling him into a deep sleep.

Jungkook looked up when he heard a small snore, slightly smiling at the sight of his boyfriend fast asleep, hair falling over his forehead while his lashes peacefully rested on his cheeks which were now squished between his shoulder and hand.

"thank you,"

He whispered, slowly brushing the hair off his forehead. He truly was very thankful to taehyung. Despite him waking up every night since the past few weeks, the male had not once said anything. He only tried his best to somehow calm down jungkook and get him back to sleep. He provided nothing but love and support, which was also the only thing jungkook needed in a time like this when one of his precious persons are no more.

Pressing a small kiss onto his now exposed forehead he mumbled a small 'I love you' before going back to his almost finished coloring as he couldn't feel an ounce of sleep in his body.

Next morning

Taehyung opened his eyes with a quiet groan. He rubbed them a few times before trying to get up, only to process a weight on his back.

Snapping his head towards the mirror in front of him, his broke into a big sleepy smile looking at his little boyfriend fast asleep on his back, his hand holding on the marker that was still open. He stared at his jungkook for a while before letting out small loving sigh.

With a little effort, he turned onto his side and carefully slid jungkook off of his back. The small male cuddled into the sheets while taking ahold of a pillow and hugging it close to his body. Taehyung smiled and covered him up properly with the big blanket before walking towards the washroom to carry on with his day.
