Taehyung was shit worried it was almost midnight and Jungkook wasn't home yet. In any other situation Taehyung wouldn't have worried so much, it wasn't like Jungkook never stayed out late. He did usually, when he had extra work at the garage or he had to paint something for a customer at the art store he owned across the street but reading Yoongi's chat and the way Jungkook had rushed out, he couldn't help but wonder if he went to 𝘩𝘦𝘳.

He was aware that asking Jungkook about her would only fuel their issues more. There was only one person he could trust and depend on, to know the truth.

Yoongi.

He had saved Yoongi's number from Jungkook's phone, the only thing he had to do was call him and ask for the truth but he was aware it wasn't going to be that easy.

Right now he just wanted Jungkook to come back.

Taehyung didn't even realize when he fell asleep. When his eyes squinted open in the middle of the night he felt the warmth around his body. There was a blanket draped over him.

Jungkook. He was the first thought in his mind.

He quickly got off the couch and walked towards their bedroom to see the other sleeping peacefully. He held the blanket closer to his body when he noticed how Jungkook moved uncomfortably on the bed. He didn't know why but a smile made its way to his lips.

[Flashback]

Taehyung felt a presence behind him when he was drinking water and slowly felt arms wrap around his waist.

"Why are you awake kook?" Tae asked, rubbing his eyes still in sleep.

"You didn't even flinch, what if it was someone else?" Jungkook asked, resting his head on Taehyung's shoulder.

"I know your touch very well," Tae replied, placing his hands over Kook's.

"Why are you awake?" He asked Jungkook who buried his nose further in Tae's neck, sniffing him cutely.

"Well like you, I too know your touch very well, come to bed I feel uncomfy" He complained and carried Tae in the same position he was holding him to their bedroom.

[Flashback ends]

The past few days both of them hadn't been sleeping together, at least not everyday and the fact that when Jungkook came home, he didn't carry Tae to their bedroom surprised him.

Was Jungkook finally ready to let go?

Taehyung draped the blanket in his hands over Jungkook and joined him in bed, though making sure to keep a safe distance between them but nevertheless a few moments later he felt arms wrap around his waist.

"Tae?" Jungkook mumbled

𝘐𝘴 𝘩𝘦 𝘢𝘸𝘢𝘬𝘦?

"I hurt you a lot..Tae ..Im sorry.."

Tae felt tears well up his eyes.

Jungkook went silent and Tae let out a sigh of relief when suddenly he felt the grip around him loosen.

"I love you Tae.." he mumbled in his sleep and Tae immediately turned around to face Jungkook only to see his tear stained face.

Tae moved to the edge of the bed creating a gap between them. The confession was ready to come out of his mouth and even though he knew Jungkook was asleep and wouldn't be able to hear him, he couldn't say it.

The words remained stuck on the tip of his tongue, his heart banging against his chest forcing to let out the words. His mind went crazy but the more Taehyung looked at Jungkook the more it became difficult for him.
