The Fault In Romance

56

jungkook's pov:

after the ambulance took taehyung to the hospital, I drove to his place to grab a few things for hime while on the phone to his mum. taehyung's mum and dad are going to fly back from their holiday, they wont arrive till tomorrow but I told them I will stay with taehyung. 

it was hard being on the phone with her, telling her that her son got hurt. I felt like I failed to protect him, I dont even know the full story of what happened. after I grabbed some things for taehyung I made sure to lock up the house before I left and drove to the hospital. 

when I arrived one nurse lead me to taehyung's room. they let me know they were running tests on him to see if he had any internal damage or any bone breakage. just hearing that come from the nurses mouth hurt me immensely. 

"we did the best we could to clean him up, he was in a huge amount of pain so the doctor gave him some medication to help relax him. his face his quite bruised, he is going to have very bad headaches for a few weeks so try keep him out of light when he is allowed to go home and try make sure whatever environment he is in, that is is quiet" the nurse explained to me as we walked to taehyung's room. 

"when is he going to be allowed out?" I asked, knowing he should stay at the hospital but I dont like the fact he is here. I want him safe at home, okay. 

"we will have a look at the results of the scan and go from there. taehyung should be awake but he will feel tired, we tried to contact his parents but they did not pick up" 

"yeah, I contacted them when I picked some stuff up for taehyung. they are on the first plane home. that is why they did not pick up" I replied, looking at the nurse who stopped at one of the doors. 

"come get me if you need anything" she smiled, patting my shoulder before she left. I felt hesitant to walk in, maybe its the guilt eating me up. I pushed the doors open quietly, I stepped in and my eyes landed on taehyung who was laying on his back. staring at the ceiling. 

as I stepped closer I felt my throat sting and my eyes get blurry. taehyung's face was bruised, and a little red. his lip was cut a little. the blood was gone but the redness was not. my heart broke when my eyes met taehyung's. a tear rolled down my cheek I placed taehyung's bag on the couch and covered my mouth as I let out a string of cries. 

I tried to keep it in but seeing taehyung in this position killed me. taehyung softly smiled as tears rolled down his cheek. 

"dont c-cry" the brunette whispered, his hand reaching for my own. I gently held his hand while sitting next to him. my face close to his as I close my eyes. 

"I am s-so so sorry t-tae" I whispered, letting all the tears fall. 

"It is not your f-fault. d-dont b-blame y-yourself" taehyung whispered, you could tell he was trying his best to hold back tears. 

"I h-hit h-him back. I p-punched him. It h-hurt my fist but I d-did it" the brunette whispered, I chuckled and smiled. 

"I am so proud of you" I whisper back, kissing his knuckles gently. 

"I k-know you have a lot of questions, I w-want to t-tell y-you but it h-hurt to t-talk" tears rolled down both our cheeks. I nodded and tried to smile. 

"it's okay my love. I understand. I will stay here with you over night, your parents are on their way. you have all the time in the world to tell me what happened. just focus on you resting" I replied, kissing his hand over and over again. 

"I w-want to s-sort out our a-argument. I d-dont like arguing with you. I m-missed you and I dont w-want to loose you ggukie" taehyung whispered, he looked so heart broken and I know it is my job to make sure I can heal that part of him. 

"your never going to loose me, I missed you so much. I dont want you to reply back, I just want you to let me apologise" I said. 

"you are right. I should of trusted you and I do. my point was that I know how anxious you get around large crowds and I dont want you to have to sit there feeling scared just cause I want you to be there. as much as I would love for you to be there, the last thing I want is for you to be uncomfortable"

"that is why I said that you dont have to come. I should not have said what I said, I just did not want you to feel as if I was pressuring you" it felt so good to let that all out. 

"we can talk more about it later but for now, I want you to rest" I leant over and gently kissed his forehead. I made sure he was all tucked in. 

"I have to go back to school to talk to coach, I will come back with some nice food for you okay. just sleep if you can" taehyung closed his eyes as he nodded his head slowly. I went to the curtains and shut them, making sure there was no light in the room. 

"I love you, I will be back" I said before I left the room.
