And now, it's only Taehyung, me, and a long conversation...


The drive to Taehyung's house was awkward. In the car the only thing you could hear was the raindrops hitting the windscreen and the windscreen wipers cleaning the wet glass. I was seating still on my seat not wanting to create a single sound and make Tae's attention drop on me. I have no courage to face him right now.

He might have said he loved me even if the lines weren't on the script but that doesn't erase everything that's been going on the past few weeks.

We had only some minutes before we arrive and I decided to draw some shapes on the window to kill some time. I ended up dewing a heart. I'm not very creative when it comes to this but it turned out cute. As much as it can be in a car's window.

All of a sudden I feel my hand getting wormer. Taehyung's hand was holding mine and game a small squish. He let out a sigh and we didn't exchange words until we arrived home.


He unlocked the door without breaking our hands. The content kept existing since he held my hand. Without saying anything he dragged me to his room where we sit down and he took my other hand as well.

I could slowly feel the tension rising. My cheeks were becoming warm second by second and my hands were on the verge of shaking.


His intense stare once again made me shiver, creating goosebumps down my core. And I thought those things would stop. Kim Taehyung never misses to amaze me.


"Y/n..." There are some specific signs where I know Tae wants to talk about something serious. One of them is calling me by my first name without any cute pet names I love so much.



"I think it's time you tell me about the reason you were hospitalized and what happened in the past. What did your father do to you?" Wait for what? Does he seriously think he's the one who needs answers?


"Hold on a second Mr. The person who needs to talk is you," I said with a little annoyance in my voice. After so many weeks he asked me when he is the one who is acting differently?



"Of course, you are the one. I've never pushed you into saying anything but don't you think that it's enough? It was so hard for me to not ask anything about you and your condition but I can't do this anymore Y/n. I need to know." His expression soften but his voice was loud enough to make me whimper.


"You aren't the only one you know! I've been suffering as well. You can't expect me to tell you things about me when you keep everything to yourself!" I become even more irritated by his behavior.



"It's not the same! How can you compare those two! Yours is much more important and serious. Besides, I don't hide anything from you." He was now in front of me pacing back and forth in the room.



"H-how can it be different? As much as I haven't told you about my hospitalization, you have kept it a secret from me why you haven't touched me all these damn weeks!"...."Shit" It's one of the first times I curse Infront of someone after living with my parents. I didn't want to tell him like that.



"W-what?" He stopped walking and stayed frozen in front of me. His eyes were wide open and with one hand he brushed his hair. "N-nothing..J-just...Just forget what I said..." I couldn't bring myself to look him in the eyes. In those mesmerizing mono-lid brown eyes because one stare was enough to break me and my inner world. One stare and I could burst into tears.




Taehyung took a deep breath and didn't say anything for a minute. "That wasn't nothing baby." Here it is. The pet name I'm keen on so much. He came to me with a slow pace and kneeled down taking my hands to his warm hold again. I could feel my eyes becoming watery.


"Why didn't you tell me you were thinking about that all this time?" And I was right. The moment his eyes landed on mine the tears started streaming down my face. " Please don't cry, my baby. You know how bad it hurts me seeing you cry..." His thumps wipe my steaming tears and cup my face on his palms. His long fingers caressed my cheeks, making me miss him more than I've already had. If it's possible.


H-how can I not cry? Yo-you haven't done anything other than kissing me and I can't think anything else but feeling ashamed and insecure!" I couldn't hold it anymore. The pain was unbearable for me to handle and I needed to get it off of my chest.


I caught him off guard the moment those words left my mouth. He hissed and his eyes shut. He started packing back and forth again as if he didn't know what to do and say. I, on the other hand, stood there. Whimpers were the only audible thing in the room except for Tae's fast pace.



He stopped and looked me in the eyes the moment he came towards me and brought me to his embrace. "I had no one baby. Making you feel insecure about yourself was the last thing I wanted. I-I just didn't want to hurt you...You have no idea how hard was for me to stay away from you, without being able to make love to you again. Our first night together was magical, but what happened after, haunted me. Not touching you has nothing to do with you. Alright? It's me" He put his head in the crook of my neck and his hands were caressing my back softly.


"What...? Why? Why would you hurt me?" I asked calmly. "Because you went to the hospital Y/n... because of me. And I couldn't bare the thought of sending you there again. You went once and I was the cause of it. I couldn't do it again. Not to you." His words slowly made my broken heart get back together. This thought didn't even cross my mind.


I took a deep breath and put my head in his neck as well while hugging him tightly. I can't believe I'm going to say my deepest secret to someone. After tonight, my soul will be given to the first person who stole my heart. "Oh Tae...I didn't hospitalize because of you. You were everything but harsh to me that night. I couldn't imagine it any better. You were everything I've dreamed about and more." My emotions overtook me and I wasn't able to stop. I was actually surprised how I managed to tell him all this.


"The nurse told me what happened baby. She told me about an assault but I-I just couldn't believe it. I was sure I also was the cause of your condition and the thought of someone h-harassing and I was overwhelmed so I just couldn't touch you." His curly hair left the hot spot on my neck and his teary eyes were piercing mine. It's the first time I'm seeing him cry.



But Taehyung knowing about the assault had me frozen on my spot once again. Cold sweat was running down my face and my eyes stayed frozen to his. Panic and terror were going down my spine and I knew an attack was coming. "H-how d-do you k-know?  W-what d-did she t-tell you-ou." My breathing was unstable and my cold hands were shaking. There wasn't enough air to fill my lungs.

I took his hand and held it tight. Too tight and you could distinguish his fingers turning white from the pressure.

"Shh...baby. Take deep breaths and count with me..."

That was the end of the chapter.
