My Gardener, My Husband

My gardener

Everyone turned to look at Taehyung, very confused to say the least.

"Jungkookie?" he repeated.

"No I mean, sir, boss, boss-sir. Oh my goodness what is happening" Taehyung said grabbing his hair in agony. "I am sorry sir, I shouldn't have, I am -"

Taehyung tried to continue speaking, as he looked at Jungkook again, he was panicking and scared at the same time at what was happening.

What has he been up to? And how is it that he can remember everything but it was still very foreign to him.

No one is the room spoke for a while as they were all confused, Taehyung had woken up so why was he referring to Jungkook like that.

"O my goodness, Taehyung are you okay?" Jimin asked as he grabbed a box of tissues from the table and handed it to him, his nose was bleeding.

"O, th-thank you" Taehyung said pulling a tissue out and placing it on his nose.

"Tilt your head back" Jin instructed as he came to Taehyung's side, "can you all wait outside please" Jin said.

They all did as they were told and left. Jin asked a nurse to call two other doctors to come to Taehyung's room.

"Am so sorry, I don't know what happened" Taehyung said as Jin pulled a chair and sat next to him. His nose bleed had stopped.

"You don't have to apologize for anything, how are you feeling?" Jin asked as he lit into his eye. "I feel fine" Taehyung replied.

"How do you know Jungkook? I mean Mr. Jeon"
"He is my boss, but, I don't know, I am not sure if he is just my boss" Taehyung replied fidgeting with his fingers.

The other doctors arrived, Jin briefed them on what had happened and they all turned to Taehyung curiously which made him feel a bit uncomfortable.

"Am I sick?" he asked.

Over two hours later, Jin returned to his office where his brothers and Yoongi where waiting.

"What do you mean by that?" Jungkook asked as he listened to Jin's explanation

"Well, good news, he is not sick, at least not pathologically. Nothing showed up on the tests that we did. But it seems like he remembers everything, but unlike his other self, he is not in-love with you"
"I don't understand" Jungkook replied with a frown.

"Okay, look at it like this, if you went out with Jimin and Yoongi for instance, to hang out or whatever. If I asked you what Yoongi and Jimin did on your day out, you would report to me from an observer's perspective about what happened. Now if I asked Jimin about what he did, he would tell me about it in first person, since it's his experience, you get it"

The three all nodded.

"So with Taehyung, we did suspect that he might recall a bit of what happened, even though that would be unlikely. But if he did, he should remember things as an observer, since "he" wasn't there"

"But instead of that, he remembers it as his own experience. Like it is his own memory. That's why he called you Jungkookie when he first met you, in a way you could say it was out of habit"

"The twist is however, he isn't in-love with you" Jin said leaning back in his seat.

"So he is still kind of asleep?" Jimin asked, "not at all, he is very much awake. He knows Jungkook is his boss, but now he also has memories that he is married to his boss"

"Whoa, this is messed up" Jimin replied.

Jungkook however was out of it, what does this mean, does he has to stay married to him, if so for how long?

Jin noticed his brother's confused state.

"Don't worry, we told him about what happened. It was also very confusing for him. But we explained to him how the accident caused him to be in the state he was." Jin explained.

"Does that mean he is totally fine now, he wont be going back into that state again?" Yoongi asked. "He should be fine, he will most likely be somewhat disoriented for a little while, but he will be fine" Jin replied.

"He asked for you" Jin said looking at Jungkook, "me? why" He asked. "Well, he said he wanted to apologize about the past few weeks".

Jungkook scratched his head, he wasn't sure if he should go. Last time, Taehyung was trembling is fear when he first saw him, this time, he had a nose bleed at the site of him.

"He is fine now, you should go" Jin encouraged.

There was a knock on the door, "come in" Taehyung said from the other side.

Jungkook felt a bit awkward as he walked in. What does he say, how does he address him, what the was he going to do.

Taehyung was seated in his bed, just as awkward and as nervous as his guest. "Y-you may have a seat" he offered.

Jungkook sat, he still hasn't said anything, other making small gestures to what Taehyung would say.

"I- I would like to apologize, for everything that happened. I am really sorry" Taehyung said with his head hanging low.

This was a bit of a change for Jungkook. Even though it hasn't been that long, he was not used to seeing Taehyung like this. He had just gotten used to him that he didn't act so scared anymore and less than a day ago he was holding him as they slept.

"It's alright, you don't have to apologize for anything" Jungkook replied.

There was silence for a moment.

"How-how much do you remember?" Jungkook asked.
"Everything"

"From when I woke up after the accident, to last night when you brought me here"
Jungkook let out a deep breath as he nodded.

"I am sorry about the other night, when I was out with Jimin. Other me, if I can put it that way, didn't remember what I did when I was drunk, but- I do, and I am really sorry" Taehyung said biting his lip in embarrassment.

What made it worse is that he can clearly remember himself doing all these things even though in a way he didn't. He remembered how he kissed Jungkook, throwing up in the car, running around the mansion, and worst of all, asking for a baby. The whole thing made him wish the floor would just open up and swallow him.

Jungkook scoffed, not in a rude way, but out of surprise. "It's okay, don't worry about it. I am glad you are doing well now" Jungkook said.

He also had to remind himself that this wasn't only a shock for him, it was probably a bigger shock for Taehyung. Having memories that you never made, but they were there, on top of that, it is with your boss.

"You should stay for a long as you need until you get better, don't worry about the hospital bill" Jungkook said.

"Thank you sir" Taehyung replied. He could have protested, but he didn't have the energy for it. He had enough things to worry about.

"Husband?" Taehyung mindlessly mumbled beneath his breath.

"Excuse me?" Jungkook asked, "o? no no, it's nothing, I was just, thinking, don't mind me" Taehyung replied with a nervous laugh.

"o-I should probably give this back to you" Taehyung said taking of the ring. He remembered the day "he" woke up in search for it, how much he cried and panicked about loosing is. It was still hard to understand what was happening.

"ah, yes, uhm thank you" Jungkook said accepting the ring. He held it in his hand for a moment, does this mean he has to give it back to his mom? He will think about that later.

"Thank you for taking care of me during that time, I know I gave you a hard time, having turned you into an imaginary character" Taehyung said.

Jungkook chuckled, "it wasn't that much trouble, you should focus on getting better now"

"Thank you J-, sir- sir, thank you sir" Taehyung said nervously.

"You should get some rest" Jungkook said before leaving.
