Are you calling me a sinner? | TAEKOOK

“where do you guys like the honeymoon to happen?”

Taehyung began choking on his food as the three watched him in shock. Jungkook handed him water that he immediately drank as if his life depends in it.

"Tae, are you okay now?" Minsun asked her son, concern evident in her face. Taehyung could only nod his head and drank water once again.

"Right, where are my manners, talking about those thing in front the food. I apologize." said Hyuna but Minsun signaled her it's fine.

Hyuna changed the topic as they talked it out randomly giving thoughts on it until they finished eating. Minsun told Hyuna that she'll help wash the dishes, so Taehyung also declared he'll help too, but in the end, Jungkook was the one who ended up helping his mother, insisting that the two 'guests' should just wait for them in the living room.

In the end of the day, Jungkook and Taehyung told their parents that they'll take their leave already and they would come visit them some other time. They hugged before they big goodbyes to each other, and now, Taehyung and Jungkook were currently on their ride way back home.

"Mom mentioned that you brought doctor there when she was sick. It was just last last week, why didn't you tell me she was sick that time?" Taehyung asked, making Jungkook advert his attention to him.

"I know you'd insist on leaving the house and going to your mother, so i rather not tell you than risk your life for the other gang to shoot your head off." Jungkook responded, making Taehyung silent for a while. He was about to pout and roll his eyes but whatever, he isn't gonna do that here.

"T-then... why didn't you tell me that my mother stays with your mother?" Taehyung asked, turning to Jungkook once again.

"It's not that needed though." Jungkook just shrugged. It's already past 7 when they arrived at Jungkook's mansion. They head out the car and entered the house.

"Thanks for today, i guess." Taehyung said, making his way to the stairs as he heard Jungkook mumble a little 'welcome' making his heart become wild again.

‘ugh, make this stop. i don't want to like him anymore!’ taehyung thought.

2 weeks, 2 weeks had already passed since Taehyung and Jungkook had a proper conversation for the day. Jungkook was barely home in that two weeks, and when he finally gets home, he looks stress and like... he's being paranoid or whatever. This alarmed Taehyung.

He would sometimes try to talk to Jungkook but he always gets the same damn answer, which is 'I'm busy, let's talk later' all the damn time, but they ended up not talking because it's either Jungkook's not home or Taehyung had already fell asleep.

Tonight seems a jackpot though, after getting home from the hideout, Taehyung found Jungkook on the living room.

‘i wish he isn't busy this time’ taehyung thought.

Taehyung walked towards Jungkook only to see him drinking an alcohol.

"I'm guessing drinking an alcohol wouldn't make you busy this time." Taehyung said, getting Jungkook's attention but the said one just decided to shrug. Taehyung frowned at how Jungkook's acting up lately.

He decided to sat down beside Jungkook on the couch. He watched Jungkook get himself drown on the alcoholic drinks in front him.

"You've been drinking a lot this past few days, i mean weeks, 2 weeks Jungkook. I don't know but its a little alarming." said Taehyung and looked at the different bottles and brand of alcohol on the coffee table. Jungkook didn't even utter a word.

Taehyung went to examine Jungkook's face, that's when he found hell of a bruises in his face. He can barely see it so he slowly used his hands to softly hold Jungkook's chin to make him look at him, and so he can get the more better view of his face only for his hands to get swatted away.

"What the hell have you been doing to yourself, Jungkook?" Taehyung asked, while the other one remained silent. There's no way Jungkook had a fight and lost that's why he got these bruises, he never loses into a fight or unless otherwise.... it's not a fair fight.

"What happened to you, Jungkook? The Jeon Jungkook i knew doesn't let himself be beaten and lose into a fight just like that, even worse let bruises form into his face. Are you a chicken now, Jeon?" Taehyung was startled when Jungkook slammed his wine glass into the coffee table, shattering it into pieces.

"This is what i hate about you, Kim. You always jump into conclusions and side with it without even knowing the real deal. Your hunches are annoying!" Jungkook spatted, making Taehyung frown. As long as he wanted to shout right at Jungkook's face right now too, he just can't because Jungkook's bleeding hands are bothering him.

"How dare you call me a coward. Do you even know why I'm being like this? He's threatening me, he knew mom was alive and he said he'll kill you all when i don't do what he wants, he knew we weren't really in love with each other and we just fake our marriage for fucking fuck's sake." Jungkook cursed out, getting all frustrated as Taehyung almost once again froze into his spot. So all this time....

"You know what he wants me to do? He wants me to take over his business transaction about drugs, yes, we're not called mafia for nothing with that but i don't do that, i don't buy and sell bodies for prostitution, i only kill people when i lost my temper but its not for nothing, they were on fault and some wants to end their life immediately so I'm just making it easy for them, they asked for it, I'm a person too, i have feelings and i can be scared sometimes. Fuck this life." Jungkook slumped down the couch and covered his crying face with his trembling hands. He was crying, and this was very unusual for Taehyung at all.

"I didn't— y-you weren't saying a-anything to me, Jeon, how am i s-supposed to know? You should stop keeping your problems to yourself from now on, what's the reason of me being here? That would be pointless." Taehyung said as he just watched Jungkook cry his eyes out.

Taehyung fished his phone to call Jimin only to get stopped by Jungkook who didn't even bother turning to him.

"Don't let them know." He dead panned. Taehyung sighed and stood up, taking Jungkook up to his room and called Jimin to arrange the mess downstairs.

He locked the door and grab the first aid kit from the cabinet, then sat down on the bed facing Jungkook. He started working on removing the glass brittles on Jungkook's hands.

Taehyung's course was nursing, but he had to give it up because their financial assistance can't hold it. He choosed nursing so he could also help his mother get better, but he had to give it up for a while and didn't really pay attention to it these past few years, totally forgetting about that profession.

He studied giving first aid, and besides, he also watch Jin do these kind of things to Yoongi's team sometimes.

Jungkook hitched when Taehyung pulled out the even bigger brittle, the one who penetrated deep in his hand but soon relaxes when it's all done. Taehyung cleaned the cuts and also remove the dirty bloods from it, before putting ointment in some of the cuts but not directly in it that made Jungkook hiss in pain.

"Oh, sorry" taehyung gently put the gauze and wrapped it up with a bandage because it was only the available one in the first aid kit.

"Done." said Taehyung and looked at Jungkook, only to see him already looking at him. They stayed like that for maybe 30 second before one of them decided to do something, and that's to pull someone for a kiss.

Jungkook pulled Taehyung for a kiss while the said one kissed back this time.
