Falling For Your Contract Husband's Friend || Taehyung Fanfiction

Chapter 10

Author's POV: 

You lay on the couch as Mina massaged your head. Jihoon got out of his room and frowned seeing the sudden guests. 
"Huh? Did you throw a party?"
"She's f-cking sick." Mina frowned as he said, "But she said she's okay."
"Do you think Migraine is okay? Come on." Mina scoffed as Taehyung sat there, looking at you worriedly. He sort of hated Jihoon sometimes. 

You were too good for Jihoon. 

Every time he realized how well you deserved to be treated but instead, how reality was harsh with you angered him. He could treat you a thousand times better and it still wouldn't be enough. Yet, he was powerless.

Mina sighed and got up, "I'll make something for you, okay? Lay down, okay?" 
"I think we should turn off the bright lights. Only let the dim ones be." Taehyung suggested as Mina nodded, turning off the bright lights in the living room. She moved towards the kitchen as Taehyung stared at you, lying there. 
"You aren't crying today." He whispered as you tried not to smile, hearing him. You pretended not to hear him. Your head was already aching. 

Jihoon stared at Taehyung and you, "Taehyung. You should head back. You don't have to waste time here unless you need something." 
Jihoon's statement triggered you more than anyone else. You tried not to react as Taehyung said, "I'm also a doctor, did you forget? I'm here to nurse her." 
"I mean... you don't have to." You could sense something off. Jihoon was speaking weirdly. He wanted Taehyung away, didn't he? 

You sighed, "Jihoon... Mina brought him here for a reason I believe." 
Jihoon sighed in disbelief and sat on the couch beside yours, glaring at the table. He wasn't liking the presence of Taehyung. 
Taehyung would've lied if he said he didn't want to punch Jihoon seeing his reaction. As much as it angered him to see Jihoon acting like that, all protective and suspicious, after leaving you alone on the sofa with your migraine, he knew Jihoon was insecure about Taehyung. 
How many more red flags was he going to have? 

Taehyung sat there, staring at you worriedly and ignored Jihoon.
"Do you need anything?" Jihoon asked as Taehyung spoke, "She needs silence during headaches.. noise triggers it. Loud ones, especially." 
As quiet and polite as Taehyung sounded, you couldn't help but silently chuckle hearing him. That was the type of sarcasm you used with people you couldn't insult directly. 

You really loved this guy's way of dealing with shit. 

Jihoon scoffed and said, "Can you come outside with me for a moment, Taehyung?" 
"Mina asked me not to leave her alone." Taehyung said as Jihoon scoffed, "She'll be just fine. She's not dying." 
Taehyung looked at Jihoon with a deadly stare shutting him up. 
"Oh god, she's my wife why are you so mad-" He whispered and sighed. 
"You have to treat her like one to call her one." Taehyung mouthed, making sure you weren't hearing it. 
"Come outside." He mouthed, once he saw Mina entering the living room with porridge. 

Jihoon tried not to laugh in anger and followed him out. 
"What's wrong with you?" Taehyung asked, irritated. 
"What's wrong with me?! What's wrong with YOU?" He asked back, pointing a finger at Taehyung who seemed quiet and unbothered. 
"What's your deal, Taehyung? I've been noticing this recently. Why on earth are you so close to my wife? Why do you care whether she's sick or not or if she's dying? That's not your business." 
Taehyung stared at Jihoon. Somewhere, his words struck deep inside his heart as a sharp knife dipped in poison. 

But he let out a breath saying, "Ah... is it abnormal to you because you've never cared for her like that before?" 
"You're my f-cking friend. Why are you getting close to my wife?" 
"What's that to you? Do you think she'll cheat on you? She's not like you. She's a f-cking angel." Taehyung spoke as Jihoon sighed. 
"Are you insecure because of the way you've treated her all along? Now that you see me around her, it's pissing you off because you're scared I'm better than you?" Taehyung couldn't hold it in. 
"Taehyung. Why are you here?" Jihoon asked.
