VENOM | TAEHYUNG

The engine died outside the dark house. Lifting my head to thank him , his eyes were on the house.

"Uhm , thanks", I say.

"Spooky", he shivered dramatically and I raise a brow. "The lights aren't on -", I point out. "It's fucking spooky", he repeat. "Whatever -", I mutter and reach for the handle when I feel his hand on my thigh. I flinch and turn to look at him. "Come here -", he lift the hand and cupped my cheek , pulling me closer as he leaned over the gears. The second our lips touch , I hum softly at that foreign feeling.

For someone so heartless- he sure did have delicate lips. Nothing rough , just a little kiss. "Don't - ever - fucking - do - that - shit - again", he warned and I nod. "It's not fucking worth it -", he stroked my crimson cheek with his thumb. "And cheating it?", my question made him scoff. "Get rest -", he gave my cheek a little slap. "I'll see you tomorrow, yes?", he wasn't asking. He was telling. "I have work tomorrow. And I'm not working at the club. I think jungkook and I will spend the evening together-", he unlocked the car , "I'll see you tomorrow. I'll fetch you after work-", he totally ignored what I had just said. "Jungkook?", I furrow my brows. "Make up a lie. You're good at it - ", he drawled.

"Fine-", I sigh and get out of the car.

I didn't expect him to wait for me to get inside the house. The engine roared as he sped off like some racer. Who does he think he is. I'm just about to enter the front gate when jungkooks car pulled up. I swear I froze. The thought of taehyung still being here when he arrived would have been total chaos.

"Baby- I tried calling", he hopped out of the car , rushing to embrace me. "I thought something happened to you-", he kissed my forehead and I melt in his arms. "No - I told you the reason I had disappeared-", I smile up at his beautiful face. "You look sick", he touched my forehead with the back of his hand. "Just alittle under the weather-", I smile awkwardly. "I'm heading back to my mother's place for supper. Want to join? I came to fetch you if you said yes", he pout cutely. "Uh- not tonight kookie" , I scratch above my brow. The meds they had me on was kicking in and I'd pass out at any moment. Plus I needed to check up on my mother.

"Are you sure? They miss you-", his eyes lowering to my chest. Was he checking out my boobs? I tried not to laugh or bring it up. "I'll see you at work then-", his mood dropped and I felt bad for saying no. "Yes -", I respond softly. He leaned in - kissing my lips. "Hmmm- Rest my little flower", he nudged my nose and gently pushed me toward the gate. I smile and wave as I walk up the driveway. I hated turning down his offer. He had come all this way and I couldn't even say yes because I'm high on medication.

Once I get on the porch and push open the front door , I hear his car drive off. Jungkook always made me feel safe. He cared more than anyone else. Yet I couldn't bring myself to share my troubles with him.

I was ashamed of myself.

Jungkooks pov:

"Have more -", mother passed the casserole to father who didn't hesitate to take another piece of chicken. My eyes were on taehyung. He had been eating that plate of pasta for the past 20 minutes. "Tae? More?", he shook his head and mother gave a nod. "Kookie? You okay baby?", taehyungs eyes found mine and I hum at mothers question without breaking our intense stare off.

"Just wondering if tae isn't feeling cold-". He raised a brow and mothers eyes bounced between us both. "Are you cold? You want a spare hoodie or something?", I ask but he just shakes his head. "Should I turn up the fire ,kook? Are you cold ?", she asked me but I just brush it off and continue eating.
