Care

ꪀ° 11: date.

"What's this?" You raise an eyebrow at the man giving you a bouquet of roses.

"Let's go on a date.. a real one." He grins at you, wearing a black T shirt tucked into his black slacks.

You bite your lip, trying not to fall for his looks, it was hypnotizing. You look at the roses, trying to think of an answer. "I- I shouldn't."  You shake your head no, making the man stand at your front door longer than he wanted to.

"Please? We never got to go on dates.. i feel bad.. i mean we were dating for like almost a year, and we never got to have a date out because of my stupid wheelchair insecurities." He sighs, upset, "I just want to make it up to you.."

You sigh, "if you're that desperate, we can go on a date..."

"Yea, I'm very desperate.."

You laugh, "okay, I'll go find something to wear..." shutting the door in his face when he was about to step in.

Your first date with Taehyung was simple. You went out for food and talked forever about how Jimin just left like that and cut contacts, never came back, how Taehyung's progress went by a lot faster when he was in the US because he couldn't wait to see you although he didn't know where you were. In the same hometown of Seoul.

"I miss him.. sometimes I think back, what if I chose to be with Jimin instead of you, I wouldn't have been left behind.."

"Woah– chill," he chuckles, "first of all, okay.. Jimin only found out he had feelings for you because he saw you with me. He likes attention, that's why his childish ass left his childhood best friend within a heartbeat." Taehyung softly growls.

"Well– I think it's because he knew we were doing things.. and he couldn't take it since you're also his best friend.. you know? It's like, fucking his own brother which hurts him and he couldn't live with it." You poke at your food. Annoyed at your next thought, "He acted like he always loved me bro, I was the one who always loved him and I was never that extremely heartbroken over his 25 girlfriends. Tch,"

"Did you just call me bro?" His brows furrow at you.

You titter, "yeah."

"Okay sis."

"I guess you can call me that, we sort of lived together as if we were siblings anyway..." you eat the steak you poked.

"Ew."

-

Your 2nd date with Taehyung after another 2 weeks when you were finally off, you went to a museum.

"Cool.. I guess," your lips are at a pout, not amazed or fascinated by all the art and sculptures.

"Did you and Jungkook not go on dates like this? I mean, he was your first boyfriend who could wAlk, I wonder what you guys did together..." Taehyung sighs in joking annoyance because he was hoping you'd have a great time.

You were having a good time, it just didn't amaze you, "we did, but we did more action.. because he's active so, we'd just go golfing, or ride bikes, hiking, karaoke... he's a great singer.." you smile to yourself, remembering the way he'd sing to you when you were sad. That always made you feel better.

"How did you guys meet?"

"well.. we met at a bar... i was DD for my college friends andddd," you chuckle when you remember the memory, "his Alcoholic drunk ass just walked into our car and made us drive him home. After that he we ran into each other again after I graduated. He apologized and then.... Yea, we just started talking everyday.."

"Seems like you had a fun life..." Taehyung walks beside you toward the next art piece.

"Nah..."
