LETTING GO - VEGASPETE Ff [Manxman]

Chapter 9

PETE'S POV

"We are going to miss you, are you sure about this?" Jimin asked for the nth time now.

I finally decided to go back.

"I will call you from time to time no worries" I answered genuinely.

I going to miss them too. They treated us like their own family, and I am very thankful for that.

"So if something happens, you know where to go."

"Yes thank you so much for everything" I shyly said then he hug me.

"Ahemmmm" Yoongi interrupted us glaring at us, holding Venice and Yoonmin.

"Don't forget your son, or do you want to keep him here? We can take care of him" he said with his usual face.

We are currently at the departure area now. The rest of them didn't come because of work, and I understand that.

One week before our flight, Jin and Jimin prepared a farewell party for us. That day they already said their goodbyes, and tell us they cannot come to drop us off.

"Of course not" then I held Venice's hand.

"So, Venice says bye to Yoonmin now," I said.

"Byebye MinMin, I promise when I grow I will come back to marry you," he said and stole a kiss from Yoonmin.

"What the heck," said Yoongi in shooked.

I and Jimin are just shaking our heads because this is not new to us anymore.

Cause every time they play, they keep on saying that to each other.

The first time I heard those, I have the same reaction as Yoongi.

After that, we went inside for check-in.

On the plane, Venice keeps on asking questions, like Are we going to see his uncle Tey. Does he have a big room full of toys like in Bangtan Mansion and many more?

"Enough with questions okay, you have to sleep cause later when we get there, we will still need to travel to go see grandma and grandpa. This is going to be a long journey for you" I explained to him.

"Papa last question"

"Okie last one promise?" and I showed him my pinky finger.

"Okie promise" and he did the same

"Am I going to meet my Dad there?"

I'm still debating whether to answer his question. Whether to tell him, that I don't want him to meet his dad, or to tell him that his dad doesn't know he exists.

"When the time comes baby" that's the only word I know not to break his heart.

I'm not planning on telling Vegas that he has a son either. Cause I have my reason. One, he will not believe me and call me I'm crazy. Two, what if he believes me and takes Venice away from me? I'm not going to let that happen. Especially now that he doesn't have feelings for me anymore.

Flashback

Cold and trembling hands, debating whether to open or not the door in front of me.

"Don't worry Pete If he does something to you, just give us the signal and we will shoot him," RM told me and tap me on my shoulder.

Trying to calm my beating heart accelerated to its normal speed since I heard his name. The feeling of anxiety washes over me again.

Many questions are running through my mind right now, but maybe this is the right time to face him.

I open the door and enter without looking at him and sat on the opposite chair. There is a table between us. My eyes are on my hand under the table, rubbing and squeezing them from time to time.

I jump on my sit when he calls my name.

"Pete" his voice was too low.

Why I'm being like this I scolded myself. Trying to be brave, I looked him in the eyes.

I wanted to shout at him and tell him everything that inside my heart, but I don't know where are they now.

The grudge I'd been holding against him was gone too.

Staring at his eyes is like I'm staring at Venice right now.

"I know you hated me, and I'm sorry that you need to go through all of that because of me."

Yeah, that's what I want to feel right now, but where is that hatred, I can't feel them in my heart anymore. And I hated myself for that.

"I came here to apologize for everything. I will promise you that I'm not going to disturb you anymore"

"How a...re you s...ure about t..hat?" I asked him stuttering.

"The things that I've said to you before, don't worry about it. I'm not going to do it. You can go back to where you used to be" he said

"You think I will believe you?" I asked angrily.

"Okie, I'm not going to ask you to go back, It's up to you to decide whatever you want to do now. Just believe what I said this time, please?" he pleaded

"I'm happy here, so why do I need to go back?" that's true, I'm happy at the same time sad being here.

Happy because I have Venice here and the Bangtan. But sad because I can't be with all the people I want to be with.

After going back to Thailand, I realized that I miss everything about there. My grandparents, my work, all the food, the places, and my friends.

"If you say so. Maybe this is the last time we are going to see each other. I just came here to sincerely apologize for all the things I've done to you." he said standing up and going to the door ready to leave.

I refrain myself sitting and put my head on the table. I thought he left already because I heard the door opening.

"If you are still thinking that I'm after you, don't worry Pete. That feeling was a long time gone."
