Shadows Beneath The Skin | TAEKOOK

Chapter 7

White translucent light blared down into the hospital room. The quiet beeps of the monitor repeating in an annoying tick. Muffled voices could be heard through the wooden door, as a peaceful boy rested his eyes inside the room. 

Jungkook opened his eyes when he heard the sound of the door opening. A nurse walked in along with Taehyung. 

The nurse stood next to his bed and took his vitals. "Alright, Jungkook right?" He nodded his head and she smiled. "Perfect. Now I don't see anything else wrong other than your fractured ankle, so you can go home and rest some more. Just don't forget to take these pills for the pain." 

The sweet nurse handed him the pills and bid her goodbyes. Leaving the two boys alone. 

Jungkook gulped as he stared at the older boy in anticipation. What had happened in the car earlier was all he could think about up until this point. So he really wanted to talk to Taehyung to ask him if he felt the same thing, or if it was just a mistake to him. 

The text message had also shaken him up pretty bad, and he knew he wasn't falling asleep tonight. But if he could get this out of the way then he'd have one less thing to worry about. 

Jungkook placed the pill bottle to the side of the hospital bed. He looked around for his clothes and spotted them beside Taehyung. 

Jungkook looked from his clothes straight into the deep hazel orbs of Taehyung, who had apparently been staring at him for a while. 

"Um Hyung, could you pass me my clothes please?" Jungkook applauded himself for not stuttering. Taehyung looked Jungkook up and down then decided to grab his clothes for him. 

Taehyung walked over and was about to place his clothes on the bed. 

But instead of handing them to the younger, Taehyung dropped them beside him and pushed Jungkook back on the bed. 

Jungkook's back hit the hospital bed with a thump as he gasped. Taehyung placed his hands on either side of Jungkook's waist and lowered his head to be right in front of his face. 

"What if I don't want you to change hm? What if I want you to stay in that so I can rip it off whenever I want with ease?" Taehyung's hot breath ghosted Jungkook's cheeks as he dared to stare right into Taehyung's hungry eyes. 

"U-um. Taehyung we can't. Not here at least." Whispered Jungkook timidly as he quickly looked to the door that could burst open any second. 

"Who cares about that, let them walk in for all I care." Taehyung huskily drawled out and climbed on the small bed. 

Jungkook shyly glanced at Taehyung through his lashes, looking so innocent yet beautiful. 

"I think we should finish what we started in the car don't you think?" Jungkook breathed heavily and avoided Taehyung's hungry gaze.

"I-i think we s-should go somewhere e-else f-first." Taehyung angrily huffed and through the clothes at Jungkook. 

The dainty boy eyed Taehyung in confusion. As Taehyung saw Jungkook's confused features he groaned annoyed. "Hurry and get dressed so we can go. I have to talk to you."

Jungkook quickly nodded and grabbed his clothes to change. 

~~~

Soon the two boys headed out of the hospital. One with crutches and the other watching the other in case he needed help. 

Once they arrived at Taehyung's car, they got in and started to drive. 

Jungkook fiddled with his fingers as the rumble of the car left a silent hum. He glanced at Taehyung every few seconds. He wanted to talk to him and explain everything. Jungkook also wanted to know what was going through the raven haired boys head.
