The Priest's Son

That's my line!

Taehyung pov

After I had woken up a week ago, the doctors quickly began organising my regimen, to say I had a lot to do would be an understatement. I had to go to physical therapy as a way of redeveloping my nerves and was finally able to walk and write after the first 3 days - something about my nerves not being too severely damaged. It was extremely painful to walk, but I ended up getting used to it.

It was finally time for me to go home! God, I can't wait to finally bathe by myself, it was quite uncomfortable to have to be naked for hours at a time, the water got cold really quickly and the burn cream really hurt the first few times the nurses applied it. As of right now, they are putting me in my burn vest - it's a weird material, covering both of my arms, my chest and my back. I had a similar situation going on with my legs, except they were just heavily bandaged.

I hadn't looked in the mirror yet, knowing I wouldn't be able to look at myself and how miserable my patchy skin is. The others had left a week ago, same with Jungkook, but they had visited a couple of times -  saying that they were busy doing something. I was trying to tie my shoelace, and undoubtedly failing, tears yet again filling my ears, I kept trying to grab hold of the flimsy laces, but my fingers did nothing but laugh at my attempts as they shook.

Before sobs could steal my breath, a set of hands reached for my laces and tied them, looking up I smiled gratefully at those brown eyes. "Come on baby, I've already signed you out, let's get you home," he said softly, a little cheerful tone in his voice. I nodded happily as he grabbed my nimble fingers, helping me walk. We waved goodbye to the nurses and doctors as we exited the hospital doors, promptly walking to Jungkook's car, him opening the door for me like a gentleman. 

He wore a goofy smile, "You were serious about those brownie points," I chuckled softly. "Anything for my beautiful boyfriend," he said with a little smirk. I knew my face was a tomato as I whined "Kooook, shut up!" My ears were burning as he laughed, buckling his seatbelt. "What? I'm just flattering my boyfriend! He's quite a sight for sore eyes," he said nonchalantly as I buried my face in my loosely shaking hands. He gently took hold of my hands, feeling how they were slightly shaking, his smile being wiped off promptly. "Do they hurt a lot?" He whispered gently, caressing my thumb as he awaited my response.

I shook my head, "It's just a bit hard to bend them for long amounts of time," I answered, looking up to meet his gaze. He entwined our hands and rested them against my thigh as he turned on the engine, "Just relax baby, I got you hmm," he spoke softly. I offered him a smile, "What would I do without you," I said genuinely. "I'd, I'd probably be dead if not-" "Please don't think about what would be if I wasn't there. It was my fault you were there in the first place. I never apologised. I'm s-so sorry Tae, he only did that cause I made you go against him-" Taehyugn unravelled their hands as he grabbed Jungkook's cheeks softly. 

"I did it willingly, you made me feel, free for once. That room is, awful, but I don't regret being in there since it made me realise how much I, um," I bit my lip, catching those words in my throat. I didn't know if I was sure if I could say that word yet. "You were the best thing that ever happened to me, call me selfish, but I'm glad you took a risk on me." Jungkook finished, pressing a little kiss to my forehead. Deciding to be a little brave, I did something.

"Jungkook?" I questioned quietly, he turned to me with a little smile, "Yea-mfffph" his eyes widened as he realised what was happening. Taehyung's soft lips were lightly resting against his, innocence in every sense. Taehyung was kissing him! On the lips! The kiss was slow, their lips stayed still for a minute, Jungkook's hands slowly making their way to Taehyung's neck, lightly pressing the pads of his fingers into the spurs of hair, pushing their faces inevitably closer.

Jungkook began moving his lips, the start of a sensual kiss. He was chasing Taehyung's lips as his tongue gently licked his lower lip, Taehyung's hands now tangled in Jungkook's hair as they rested on his neck. Jungkook pulled him closer, pressing slightly harder against his lips as his tongue traced along the sealed lips that were gently moving against his. Taehyung wasn't exactly sure about what to do, but it was as if Jungkook could read his mind. "Open your mouth a little baby," he whispered intimately. 

Taehyung complied, Jungkook's tongue slowly moved into his moist cavern, licking up the underside of his tongue, to then trace the hollow of his cheeks. Their eyes were glued shut as they began losing themselves. Taehyung tugged on Jungkook's hair as he slowly began losing air, slightly struggling to get air through his nose. He lightly tapped Jungkook's shoulder, said man gently letting his intimate moves halt as he pulled his lips away from Taehyung's, licking his lips to savour the taste of Taehyung on his tongue.

Taehyung quietly heaved air as his lungs were at full capacity yet again. They both shared gentle puffs of air, looking into each other's eyes with an undeniable, loving gaze. "Wow," Jungkook whispered. He watched as Taehyung giggled shyly, his forefinger gently running across his lips, unsure if they really just kissed. "I have wanted to do that since the day at the festival," Jungkook said truthfully, earning a blissed blush dusting on Taehyung's cheeks. "Jungkook," Taehyung whispered, tears gathering in his eyes.

Before Jungkook can think he did something wrong, he is surprised for a second time when Taehyung says gently, "-I, I think I love you."
