Jimin did not know why,even while he was walking away and giving himself closure,he was wishing that Taehyung would stop him.The roads were empty and there was only the sound of his shoes tapping against the stone pavements.He knew Taehyung hasn't moved at all.This was confirmed when the latter called out to him,"I had to tell you something the next day"

Before Jimin could stop himself,he turned around fast,"what?"

Taehyung's camera was slipping off his shoulder,"I told you that I had to say something,and that I will be waiting for you"

Jimin could remember, in the dimlit room of his childhood bedroom,Taehyung's low whisper.But Jimin did not go back,never knew what Taehyung wanted to say and back then ,didn't even care about it.He was trying to save his heart back then.

"Are you not curious?",Taehyung walked towards Jimin and yes,now Jimin wanted to know.His teenage self was still screaming to save the same heart.

"Taehyung,I have a flight",Jimin said,stupidly.He couldn't bring himself to say he wasn't curious.

"Jimin,Give me a chance to make things right.I am a stupid person,Jimin.I do not know what to say most times and when I do say something,it comes out wrong.I wanted to say I love you and I end up saying we can't live like that",Taehyung came closer to him,"I loved you..I loved you and still love you so much..Like it was just too hard to be not around you and that  scared me so I tried to drive you away instead.Jimin,your gaze gave you away more times than you know.It would not have ended good for us.So I started pretending to love Soo yu",Taehyung breathed

Jimin leant against the nearby wall,trying to keep standing,to act like none of it was affecting him.Taehyung was only few feet away from him,if he reached over,he could touch Jimin but he didn't.His eyes were focused onto the fallen straps of his camera from his shoulder.

"I thought if you would stop,I could also stop.Because Jimin,I did not know how to stop loving you first and such a fool...I pushed you too hard and then I lost you",silent tears ran down Taehyung's face,"I paid the price of being a coward"

"What did you wanted to tell me,Tae?"

Taehyung looked up to see Jimin's eyes reflecting off his own eyes.The elder's hand came upto fix the strap of the camera back onto Taehyung's shoulder.His hand travelled upto cup Taehyung's neck.Taehyung choked a sob before pressing their head together,"I love you",Taehyung cried.

Then the streets of Venice disappeared from around them and they were in Jimin's bedroom again.Taehyung was laying behind Jimin whispering the same words into the back of his neck,Jimin fast asleep.

They were just two teenage boys ,finding love again in Italy.Jimin tipped forward catching Taehyung's lips between his.
"We lost so much time", Taehyung mumbled between the kisses and Jimin kissed him properly,as if those words drew out some desperation from his heart.His hands left Taehyung's neck to thread through his hair.

"I'm sorry, I'm sorry", Taehyung kept saying whenever they pulled away as minutely as to get some breath.
"I had to go away, Taehyung,cause one call from you,I would end up staying again and ..",Jimin trailed away.
"I called,I kept calling", Taehyung sniffed,smiling a little and Jimin smiled back,just as painful.

"I told our principal it was me who did it,I wanted you to be there"
"You didn't have to-"
"I would do it all over again if needed,Jimin.I wanted to make everything right with you..and it was a start"
Jimin nodded, understanding and they finally pulled away.Jimin sighed heavily,looking back at the way that led to his hotel,"You want to come with me?"

Taehyung's lips turned into a soft smile,"If you'll have me",said he.
"Always",Jimin said,as he held out a hand to the younger and this time, Taehyung took it firmly and sincerely.Taehyung did not say it in words but Jimin understood that he would not have to ever be scared of looking around the corner for a Bambie to show up.Taehyung would always be his.

A/n:Hope the ending justified the pain
