insecure - jazmine sullivan + bryson tiller

Stirring out of his sleep Taehyung wakes up in his bed alone for the second day in a row. He gets that weird feeling in his chest again as he remembers Friday night. He hasn't seen Maddie in person since then.

He's tried everything. He's called her phone at least 10 times, texting, and even going to her dorm. But she won't budge on her words. The only thing she responded to was the texts and even then she just told him that she didn't want to see him this weekend.

It hurts. He won't lie. That whole argument could've been prevented had he said how he felt. After thinking about it all day yesterday, he realizes and now knows Maddie isn't ignoring him because his feelings aren't valid enough; but because he refused to talk and just shut down instead of trying to talk.

But he can't help it. He's so used to just shoving his problems about her deep down inside until he eventually got over it or until they ended up pushing him to his limit. Neither of those things ever solved a problem though. They'd just come up again, more aggressively the second time around.

For starters, when she began dating Jordan what did Taehyung do? He didn't say a word about it until he saw how happy she was with him. He ended up lashing out, saying things he didn't mean to which led to her not talking to him.

Then what did he do when she said she was staying with Jordan after he cheated on her? He said his true feelings but stopped talking to her for an entire month. He got into an entirely new relationship with someone else to try and get over her.

Both ways were wrong. And he wouldn't break up with her or stop talking to Maddie simply because of this situation, that's not an option, nor is it something he wants to happen. Taehyung just doesn't know what to say to her now. The only thing he can do is give her the space she wants.

But first, he has to text her. He sends a good morning text, nothing more nothing less. He then forces himself to get out of bed, and wipes his face slowly, resisting the urge to loudly groan into his hands. He leaves his room, slowly trudging to the bathroom as Aaliyah and Jimin cuddle on the couch.

The couple exchanges a glance as Taehyung slowly shuts the door behind him. They know he's been feeling pretty crappy due to their little lovers' quarrel from Friday.

Jimin can see both sides of the argument, but he finds himself gravitating toward Maddie's side more. In his opinion, Taehyung should've talked about his feelings if he had an issue, not left Maddie hanging.

As for Aaliyah, she sees both sides as well, but can personally understand Taehyung's side more. Insecurity is a new thing for him, and it's even harder because Taehyung doesn't want to seem dramatic or drive her away. Especially since knows Maddie will do whatever she wants regardless of what he says sometimes.

Either way, they know they'll get over it soon. It's only this dramatic because it's their first argument ever. That's not to say it's not valid but only to say it could be a lot worse.

He walks out of the bathroom and Jimin and Aaliyah greet the man with friendly smiles on their faces, trying their best to cheer him up as Taehyung's face rests unamused.

"Good morning." Jimin greets. "We made pancakes, feel free to grab some."

"It's 12:14 in the afternoon. But I love you for trying to be nice." He says, a small smile appearing. "What are you guys up to?"
