"And you know, for you, I'd bleed myself dry."

~ Yellow, Coldplay


Kwan sat on the edge of Taehyung's childhood bed, his eyes fixed warmly on Taehyung.

"Please come and cuddle me, just for a minute." He begged, reaching his arms out to Taehyung. Taehyung remained standing at the other end of his room, arms crossed in front of his chest.

"No, I am still mad at you." He huffed, trying to fight how badly he wanted to walk over to Kwan.

Kwan pouted. "Mad at me for what?" He asked, eyes soft.

"For everything." Taehyung whispered, meeting Kwan's eyes with a steady gaze.

Kwan's face fell, and he stood up. "For dying?" He asked, and his voice began to distort and echo.

Taehyung balled his fists. "Yes!" He screamed, tears streaming down his face.

The walls of Taehyung's bedroom began to fall away, revealing that they were on the side of the highway, the one where Kwan died, and when Taehyung looked back up at Kwan, he saw he was drenched in blood from head to toe, it was even caked in his hair. Fire blazed from the SUV, and thick smoke filled the air, choking Taehyung and stinging his eyes.

"Find someone else, Taehyung." Kwan said. "You use your anger at yourself and at me to keep you from what you really want."

"No, I don't!" Taehyung screamed back, tears spilling from his eyes.

"Yes, you do."

Before he could yell at Kwan again, Kwan faded away into the smoke, leaving Taehyung alone.

Taehyung woke up with a start, his heart hammering and his eyes trying to adjust to the dim, grey light coming in from the window. Where-

He felt Jungkook's strong arm around him and his heart slowed. Sighing happily, he kissed the forearm he'd used as a pillow all night. That's right. . . He thought sleepily. I'm with you. . .

Bam, Jungkook's dog, was asleep at their feet, snoring away like a fiend. Even though the last time Taehyung had seen the dog was less than a month ago, it had already doubled in size, it's long snout resting on it's paws as it slept. I have a feeling Yeontan will not get along with you.

Jungkook shifted, sighing in his sleep, and Taehyung took this moment to study the tattoos on Jungkook's arms once again. It was one of his favourite things to do when he woke up with Jungkook. He used his index finger and traced along the outline of the tiger lily tattoo, following it's delicate lines down Jungkook's arm. His skin was so smooth, so fair. Slowly and carefully, Taehyung began to sit up, removing Jungkook's arm and placing it gently back on the mat, so that he could admire all of Jungkook. Jungkook always slept so peacefully, his eyelashes fluttering every now and then, his brow set in a calm, straight line. Taehyung smiled, remembering Jungkook's drawing of Taehyung sleeping.

Taehyung! Even angry in his sleep! Lol

Taehyung's halmoni always used to point out that he frowned in his sleep, and that she'd always press her index finger between his brow to unfurrow them while he slept, saying he needed to let his sleep give him peace. He wondered now if it was Jungkook's careful finger that coaxed his angry brows apart while he dozed. Taehyung's heart fluttered to think about how long Jungkook must watch him sleep for if he was able to get such an accurate sketch of it. Maybe Jungkook was just as smitten for Taehyung as Taehyung was for him, after all.
