taehyung cried and cried. he thought he might finally get away from his stepfamily. he sat there letting his tears run, when he felt something heavy around his neck. he felt around his neck but there was nothing. he continued sitting there when the weight got heavier.
he suddenly remembered the master key he used to wear around his neck until grayson made him take it of. he rushed to his closet and dug through the mess. he shuffled through boxes and random heaps of old toys. he finally found it at the back of everything stuffed in an old shoe box.
he stood back up, key in hand. after fumbling for a bit, he shoved the key in the lock and twisted it. he heard a click and he swung the door open. taehyung left the key in the door and he thundered down the stairs. he saw the assistant and the bodyguard leaving the house.
"hold on. wait! i'm here. don't leave." taehyung yelled, grabbing everyone's attention.
"oh, another." mr. kim said, slightly annoyed.
he guided taehyung to the chair and walked to the guard and grabbed the heel. as he was walking back, grayson stuck his foot out, tripping mr. kim. the heel flew out of his hand and he tried to grab it, but it shattered in front of taehyung.
"oh no! no, no, no! this is terrible. jungkook is coming, what will he say? what will he do?"
"um, if it helps i-" taehyung started.
"no, no. nothing can help. nothing." mr. kim cried.
"but, you see, i have the other slipper." taehyung said, pulling the heel out.
everyone gasped. the assistant grinned and snatched the precious thing from his hands. he hugged it close before he began to put it on. before he could start, they heard a voice.
"if you wouldn't mind, i would like to do the honors." the voice spoke.
everyone whipped their head in the direction of the speaker.
"oh, jungkook, of course." mr. kim handed off the heel to jungkook.
"thank you."
jungkook walked up to taehyung and smiled at him. taehyung smiled back. jungkook knelt down and slid the glass slipper onto his foot.
"it fits." jungkook said.
jungkook stood up and taehyung did as well. a grin broke out on jungkook's face and he picked taehyung up and spun him around. when he put him down, he pulled him close.
"what's your name?"
"taehyung."
"just as beautiful as you. may i kiss you?"
taehyung shyly nodded but that was enough for jungkook to interlock his lips in a sweet, tender kiss.
"wonderful, just wonderful. oh, to be young and in love again anyway, i'll start planning the wedding and i shall notify your parents." mr. kim announced.
"u-um, if you don't mind. i'd like t-to take it slow. if that's ok." taehyung stuttered.
"oh, no, no, no. i promised mr. jeon that as soon as you were found, wedding planning would be in process."
"oh, um-"
"tell them that their son has other plans and is taking it slow."
