Shades Of Regret 🔞 || A Kim Taehyung Fanfic

Chapter 29

Taehyung's POV

I brought the cold rim of the smooth glass to my lips, the liquid roamed in my mouth before flowing down my throat and I could feel a sweet burning sensation. I sighed softly, wiping my lips with the back of my hand.

"You're getting weak." She chuckled as she slightly leaned back, her hands still around my neck.

Placing the glass on the counter behind me, I rested my hand on her waist before encircling it with my arm the strong scent of her perfume stung my nostrils.

"Am I?" The corner of my lips raised into a smirk. I pulled her close, her chest pressed against mine and her dress rode higher up her thighs.

A soft chuckle left her lips again, "Yeah, she's having quite an effect on you." She spoke, a hint of unexplainable disappointment in her voice. "You've never stayed with anyone for more than three weeks and here," She sighed, looking into my eyes. "you've been stuck with her three months Tae."

Giving a quick peck on her lips, I let out. "This one is kinda fun, unlike anyone I've dealt with before."

"Fun?"

"Hmm, yeah."

I knew that short answer wasn't what she needed and she wouldn't accept it, pushing my hands off her body, she stood up. "Yeah?"

Shaking my head in amusement, I leaned my back against the counter and my elbows too. "You're being cute again so I'll elaborate." I stated, looking into her hazel eyes. "Let me give you an example to make it clearer. Remember the last one I had?" I asked, to which she nodded in response. "If I initiated and argument with her, she'd call me all type of names and blame me and I'd just sit back and enjoy."

She rolled her eyes, crossing her arms over her chest. "This is getting boring."

Ignoring her remark, I continued. "But this one, her behavior is a challenge for me. She will try to solve it, ask us to stay and talk it out. She won't even dare to point a nail at me when I clearly am the one being mean. And, she cries a lot. Cute." I unknowingly smiled, picturing her pouty lips when she's crying.

"You sure you're not falling again?" She asked, tilting her head quizzically.

I scoffed, turning around and pouring myself another drink. I have closed my heart off, pushed everyone out even before they could move an inch to get to me.

"You know you surprise me sometimes," She began, moving her body closer to mine, the moonlight pierced the huge transparent window and rested on her face gently and highlighted her features. "Wait- not sometimes- actually you surprise me always."

"Aren't you scared of me then?" I questioned, observing her features, to which she just chuckled.

She brought her fingers to the few dark strings that hung over her face. "I love you, what more damage can you do me?" A slight smile never left her face but the sadness  was obvious behind it.

I can't figure out whether I should pity such people, sympathize or laugh at their weakness. They'll put every single person, who speaks sweetly, on a pedestal and dedicate their life to them. Give a stranger all the power to destroy their soul, crush their heart. Pathetic.

Ignoring her last words, I got up and grabbed my coat. I could show her fake sympathy and act like I care but that will just lead her on, I didn't want to give her more hopes than I planned beforehand. As I slid my arms into the long sleeves of my grey suit, I could see the frown on her face.

"You're leaving already?" She finally asked, her voice only loud enough for my ears to hear.

Upon hearing her question, I got closer and pecked her lips while smoothing the seams of her dress. "I'll call you." I replied as I pulled away and moved towards the exit, leaving her alone amidst the murmuring.
