Where Jeongguk was the one who made a lost and afraid to love Taehyung believe in love again, made him feel loved again without letting him know how he feels about him.
What if Taehyung already knew, or if he loved him back but was afraid to acknowl...
Jeongguk was dancing in the whole house since he arrived, bouncing on the bed and couch because he was so excited for the walk Tae. He was going on a walk alone with his crush afterall what do you expect him to do.
"Yes! Let's go." He said hiding how excited he was,as he was waiting for him for the past 20 minutes.
"I'm so excited." Taehyung made some happy noises balling his fists and raising them in the air.
He was irresistibly cute, how could someone hit this boba ball? The thought of it alone made his smile fall.
He couldn't imagine how taehyung would cry, ask him to stop or shield his body with his hands to protect himself. He just wanted to protect Taehyung forever.
"Jeongguk? Let's go!" Taehyung had already walked some steps. Jeongguk paced to him. Trying to smile but the visions won't leave his mind.
"I thought about what you said," Taehyung said shoving his hands in pockets. Staring ahead on the street.
"Y-you did?" Jeongguk wanted to know more.
"Mhm, you were right, I should not endure all those things, I shouldn't have. But I was helpless, I had no other friend, no one who could tell me what he was doing wrong-"
He was all serious, looking all matured compared to the Taehyung who was screaming in excitement minutes ago.
"- now that you told me, I realized."
"I'm so glad for you Hyung, I really hope you now acknowledge the fact you're beautiful and not fat. You don't talk loud and try to attract people." Jeongguk was happy for him, he was understanding his worth-
His bubble burst when Taehyung laughed sarcastically a little.
"You haven't seen me yet Jeongguk, you don't know I really am fat. I'm not saying this because Woonjin told me, but I realized I am fat and ugly."
Jeongguk sighed. It wasn't that easy, huh? But he was determined. He will make him believe, he will make Taehyung see the truth.
"If I haven't seen you, then let me see you hyung." Jeongguk didn't know what he was saying. He was just busy staring into Taehyung's eyes you could say.
Taehyung being the adorable innocent being, he just stared at Jungkook not quite understanding what he meant. Jeongguk after blinking a few times, came back to reality.
He chuckled at how cute Taehyung looked. "It's nothing. Let's just go hyung." He replied throwing a beaming smile at Tae's direction.
Jeongguk was again lost in his thoughts while walking with Taehyung in his side, who was waddling like a duck. God Jeongguk could hold him in his arms and kiss him forever because do you see how adorable that boy is?
He was wondering how could Taehyung be insecure of himself when he was nothing but absolutely beautiful and perfect. So he asked, "Hyung what made you believe that you're ugly? I just don't get it. Why would you call yourself ugly?"
Taehyung stopped walking and replied "I don't know Jeongguk. it's just I don't feel confident in myself. I have moles all over my body, it's ugly, I'm ugly." Taehyung continued.
"Moles? Do you think moles are ugly? They are part of your beauty Hyung, they are so cute, they make you look even prettier."
"Don't you think you compliment me a little too much?" Taehyung said with a playful grin. Only if he knew that in Jungkook's eyes, he was the most beautiful person ever and he could compliment him for his whole life.
Jeongguk shrugged it and said "You know I want you to know your worth, and I want to tell you the truth." He kicked a random stray stone on the foot path with full force trying to let Taehyung know of how serious he was.
Taehyung just stared at him and then smiled softly. "Let's go grab some juices, then we will go to the park, okay?" Taehyung tried to change the topic. He made the plan or maybe he had made it before.
"Looks like we will have a conclusion on Woojin's topic huh? I want you to make a decision and never talk about it anymore."
Jeongguk wasn't that easy to deal with afterall. All they ever talked about was just Woojin and he wants to end the issue now.
"I asked you for a walk for the same reason Gguk, I too want to end it." The cuddly cute childish taehyung was nowhere to be found. Jeongguk jumped happily in his mind because of the nickname.
They sat at the farthest booth with their hot roasted barley teas in their hands, both decided a tea was better as the weather was getting colder and colder.
"Let me talk first then," Jeongguk said because Taehyung seemed to be lost in thoughts.
"If someone is stopping you to achieve anything, let it be physical or mental, in your case, it's both, if he is stopping you from physical things like making friends, be yourself, or mentally, like making you think that you're fat or ugly, then it's not done. You are beautiful as fuck because damn, you really are,
Or makes you go on a diet, mark my words, they're not good for you. Your significant other is supposed to encourage you no matter what, not limit you to the nearest." His emphasis on words effected sure alot.
"If I were 4 days ago Taehyung, I would never agree. I'd say he is not limiting me, he is making me perfect so he could show me off to the world, then he won't be ashamed of me.-" he said looking at a invisible distant point, sipping his tea.
But as for now, after I met you, I think yes, even if I am ugly, even if I am fat, which is true, but that doesn't mean he could make fun of my traits, he was supposed to accept me for who I am." Taehyung was glad he finally chose something.
"So, I decided I will leave him. I can't be with him anymore. I do not deserve this. Next time I meet him, I will finish this relationship." Jungkook was proud, he wasn't just happy, he was beyond it. The determination in his voice was what Jeongguk wanted to hear.
"I'm proud, I hope you are fine as well, I don't want you to cry over someone who made you cry hyung. He's not fucking worth it." His voice was laced with worry.
Taehyung chuckled. "Do you think I will cry? And cut the formalities, call me something cute, like-" he put his finger on his chin
"Taetae? I find it super cute"
"I'd love to hear it from you, ggukie." Jungkook's heart definitely did thousand flips after hearing that nickname from his mouth.
"So after we get home, could you help me with my assignment? I have that due tomorrow, and I have like zero information on history." Jeongguk asked hopeful to spend more time.
"Oh sure, I'd love to."

Hey lovelies, I wanted to make something clear real quick,
I didn't mean to insult or portray bad of Woojin the ex member of Stray kids, I respect all the stays. The character shown in the book has nothing to do with the member Woojin.
I apologise if I offended any of you, hope that y'all understand!
