Stay with me/Yoonkook

Chapter 18

"JUNGKOOK NO" yoongi yelled at the younger sitting on the edge of the terrace, his legs dangling over the edge, one step away from falling. jungkook didn't hear him and if he did, he didn't turn back.

"jungkookah," yoongi said softly this time, approaching the younger. 

"what are you doing here yoongi?" jungkook asked not looking back, just staring down at the moving vehicles.

"I can ask you the same" yoongi said. jungkook didn't turn but he could feel that yoongi was standing just behind him.

"go away yoongi you should be with your friend right now," jungkook said.

"but I want to be here with you jungkookah," yoongi said in a soft voice which made jungkook turn around and look at him. yoongi noticed the cut on jungkook's lip and his tear-stained face. 

"Why?" jungkook asked, almost in a whisper, looking yoongi in the eyes.

"I'll tell but come down, please. it's not safe" yoongi said reaching for jungkook's hand but he took it away.

"no. just go," jungkook said turning back, his voice breaking.

"jungkookah I know you're not okay. let hyung take care of you please" yoongi pleaded but jungkook just shook his head. his shoulder was trembling indicating that he was crying.

"no, I don't want your help. I don't need you to just go away. You should hate me. you all should hate me. why are you here g-go away" jungkook cried, his grip on the wall where his palm was resting getting harder. yoongi noticed the pain in jungkook's voice but he knew he had to deal with it calmly.

"I can never hate you koo. just come down please" yoongi said carefully placing his hand on top of jungkooks.

"n-no" jungkook cried but he sounded tired, defeated.

"It's ok bun it's just me," yoongi said softly, caressing his thumb on jungkook's bloody knuckle.

"i-i am sorry," jungkook said, his voice sounding a little in between sobs.

"It's okay. you can trust me jungkookah." yoongi replied but jungkook just shook his head, crying.

"do you trust me koo?" yoongi asks getting, even more, closer to the younger. jungkook didn't say anything for a minute but then he nodded.

"then take my hand koo," yoongi said stretching his palm for jungkook to take. jungkook turned and looked him in the eyes. his eyes were glistening and his lips were trembling. he looked at yoongi with hope in his eyes, hope he thought he lost. yoongi looked at him with nothing but love and genuine care in his eyes, and jungkook felt like breaking down and crying because that's what he always wanted. he always wanted someone to look at him like he matter, to care for him like he was the most fragile thing in the world, and love him as he have never loved before. 

he gently extended his hand and took yoongi's hand in his. yoongi helped him get down from the edge and once he was on the ground, he wrapped his arms around him. it was enough for jungkook to let everything go and break down in his arms. he let his tears flow freely, wetting yoongi's shirt. but yoongi didn't mind. he held on to jungkook, rubbing his back carefully. 

"shh it's okay I got you," yoongi said in jungkook's hair, hugging him close.

"i-i am sorry" jungkook cried in his chest.

"you're okay now bun. I got you" yoongi's voice sounded broken. he kissed his head. jungkook looked up and saw tears falling down yoongi's eyes. 

"I'm sorry" jungkook whispered and wiped yoongi's tears which made yoongi chuckle.
