The atmosphere in the room was quiet and peaceful. Jimin was sitting there silently, not saying a word for the past two hours. Although the silence was not awkward, it was quite comforting. Taehyung, on the other hand, was feeling a little worried about Jimin. He know that this marriage  was not in Jimin's favor might- ofcourse have hurt him. Jimin seemed to be disturbed by many things, and Taehyung couldn't help but feel concerned for him.

In an attempt to break the silence, Taehyung softly called Jimin's name. He felt hesitant inside, not knowing how Jimin would react, but he couldn't bear to see Jimin like this anymore. Jimin looked at him, and Taehyung found no regret in his eyes, only confusion.

"Are you hurt?" Taehyung asked, hoping that Jimin would say no. But if that's the case, he was willing to listen to whatever Jimin had to say.

Jimin didn't reply, intensifying the feelings inside Taehyung's heart. He felt helpless, not knowing what to do or say to make Jimin feel better.

"I'm sorry," Taehyung apologized, although he was unsure of what for. He just wanted to make things right between them.

Still, Jimin stared at him blankly with a face that couldn't be deciphered. It was as if Jimin didn't have anything to say.

"Should I leave?" Taehyung asked, matching Jimin's gaze. He didn't want to make things worse for Jimin.

"Maybe I should," he said when Jimin didn't answer anything. As he stood up and looked at Jimin, he took a step to walk away. However, a tug on his sleeve made him pause.

"Stay," a weak mumble escaped Jimin's lips, making Taehyung abruptly look at him, surprised.

"Stay with me," his gaze was no longer vacant. There was now a hint of a place for Taehyung in his eyes.

"Are you sure?" Taehyung asked as he sat back in front of Jimin on the bed. He nodded, and Taehyung sighed with relief. He moved his hand to cup Jimin's face without exchanging any words, silently bringing comfort to Jimin's soul.

"I can't sleep," Jimin mumbled, causing Taehyung to frown.

"Why?" Taehyung asked, concerned.

"I don't know," Jimin utter still staring down, taehyung silently crasses his thumb on his cheek, he know if jimin is crying it's because of him there's no other one in universe to hurt  jimin like he will bawl whole day, it's taehyung who can make his heart stop with sorrow but, it's only taehyung who can make him feel love and cherish his entire existence and  jimin rested his head on Taehyung's lap while lying down. Taehyung was surprised but never rejected him.

That's how they both are, can't hate eachother can't love eachother just demand to be with eachother.

Taehyung was uncertain about caressing Jimin's hair, fearing he might cause an unpleasant reaction. Since their marriage, things had not been entirely normal between them, which made him feel uneasy.
