Stay With Me [A Taekook centric Brotherhood AU]

01

Jungkook sat on the couch in the living room, his arms crossed and a scowl on his face. He was sulking, and it was obvious to anyone who ever walked into the room. His eyes were fixed on the clock on the wall, and he let out a sigh every time he checked it.

He had been eagerly anticipating his day out with Taehyung at the amusement park, but now it seemed that his hyung had forgotten all about him. He glanced at his phone, which remained stubbornly silent, and let out a frustrated sigh.

It had been hours since Taehyung had left for his Hwarang shoot, and he hadn't returned yet. Jungkook tried to call him several times, but his hyung didn't answer his phone. He was angry and upset that Taehyung had promised him something and then didn't keep his word.

As the minutes ticked by, Jungkook's frustration turned to anger. He had been waiting for Taehyung for hours, eagerly anticipating their trip to the amusement park. But as the hours ticked by, it became apparent that Taehyung wasn't going to make it.

How could Taehyung promise to spend the day with him and then just forget about it? Didn't he realize how much this meant to him? Jungkook stood up and began to pace back and forth in the room, his mind racing with all the things he wanted to say to Taehyung.

Finally, the sound of the front door opening caught Jungkook's attention. He turned to see Taehyung walking into the room, looking exhausted but unremorseful! Jungkook's anger flared up again. How could Taehyung be so normal when he had ruined their plans?

Jungkook: Welcome home Kim Taehyung.' His voice dripped mock and anger.

Taehyung flinched and looked up from his shoes, his hands stopped untying the laces of his boots and face turned towards the living room.

Taehyung was surprised to see Jungkook sitting there, "Oh! Hey, Kookie! You are here like this...?" he said, a little uncertainly, "Waiting for me?"

He hoped his makhne will jump on him cheerfully like always. But instead of jumping up to greet him, Jungkook remained seated, arms crossed and a scowl on his face.

-What's wrong?" Taehyung asked, noticing the tension in the air.

Jungkook stood up and walked near Tae, who also stood up on his full height and looked at the makhne with confusion, 'Everything fine? Why you are staring at me like that?'

Jungkook didn't say anything. He just continued to glare at Taehyung, his arms still crossed tightly over his chest.

Tae felt uncomfortable under his gaze, he tried to smile a little, 'Is it because I'm late? I know it's quite late...I'm sorry for that. We had a really long day on set."

Jungkook's face reddened more in anger, 'You totally forgot, didn't you?' his voice cold.

Tae stumbled, 'H-huh?'

Jungkook: You promised we would go to the amusement park today. Do you even remember that?"

Taehyung's face fell, 'Oh! K-Kookie I-I...'

Jungkook scoffed, 'You don't, right?'

Tae worked up, 'NO! I-I mean... Of course I remember, Kookie. I was really looking forward to it too.'

-Then what happened to our plan?" Jungkook demanded, his voice cold as ice.

Tae sighed, 'Bunny! You know how the work is! Things just got really busy today, and I couldn't get away."

-Well, if so,' Jungkook glared at him. "You could have at least let me know. I've been waiting for you all day."

Taehyung sighed, his shoulders slumping. "I know, and I'm really sorry. I should have called you. I'm sorry-

Jungkook's eyes started tearing up in frustration and anger, 'You always say that hyung! But you never really mean it!'

Jungkook was hurt. He had been looking forward to today for weeks. Taehyung had promised him that they would go to the amusement park together, just the two of them. Jungkook had been so excited that he could hardly sleep last night, but now he felt like a fool for believing Taehyung.

On the other hand Taehyung was pretty exhausted. The whole shooting took a toll on him and he was too tired for an argument right now. All he wants is to take a warm shower and crumble under his duvet in his comfy bed and sleep like no tomorrow.

Taehyung rubbed his temple of the head tiredly and sighed, 'I said I'm sorry Jungkook-ah! Can you please let it go now? I'm damn tired-

Jungkook: So am I! I also worked all day but as we promised, I came home and still waited for you!' Jungkook wiped his frustrated tears with back of his hand harshly.

Tae sighed. He was damn tired, "Jungkook I said I'm sorry! But I have to do work buddy! That's my job!"

Jungkook took a deep breath, "I get that work can be busy, but this isn't the first time, hyung. It feels like you make promises without considering my feelings, and it hurts. I've been waiting for this day for so long, and it feels like you don't prioritize our plans."

~ What's going on here?' they heard Jin's voice from the staircases and soon rest of the members showed up. All of them having a confused worried look on their faces.

Jimin took a step closer to Tae and looked back and forth between Tae and Jungkook, 'What's the issue boys? Why you guys are shouting?'

Tae just sighed heavily and rubbed his face with his both hand palms, and Jungkook just kept looking straight to Tae, didn't even bother to answer his hyungs!

Namjoon: Tae? Jungkook-ie? Were you fighting?' he asked calmly and Tae shook his head a little. He turned to Jungkook and spoke softly...

Tae: I know you did wait for me and I know you are hurt! But my situation is a bit different Kookie! We all worked hard, there is no doubt on that! But I had to do extra shifts for that drama series shoot!' he tried to stay calm, he don't want to fight with his makhne with this silly matter, but Jungkook is not helping at all, 'Try to understand makhne-ah! I caught up-'

Jungkook: No I can't and I don't want to! Why always I need to understand? You always skip from your responsibilities and deeds hyung!

Yoongi: Jungkook!' he warned coldly, but Jungkook was too heated up for hearing.

Jungkook: What? Tell him to be responsible for once and-

Taehyung felt his patience wearing thin. He had always tried to be understanding of Jungkook's feelings, but this time, he couldn't take it anymore. His exhaustion mixed with frustration, and he finally snapped.

Tae: WELL! I DID!' Tae let out a bit loudly, now the argument was making him heated up too, 'I said I'm sorry! I admitted my fault! But you need to be in my shoes to see my state too Jungkook! This was really a busy day!

-I don't want to hear your excuses," Jungkook snapped, 'I'm tired of it. You always have a lame excuse for justifying your deeds-

Tae: THAT'S NOT FREAKING LAME!' he was getting frustrated.

Hobi: Ok ok! Tae! Chill buddy, he will get it-

But Jungkook shouted back, 'YES IT IS! Don't pretend like it's only you who works, like we don't!' he scoffed and rolled his eyes.

Tae squinted his eyes, rage boiling up inside him...

Tae: Jungkook! I never said that I'm the only one with works...You better behave yourself. Just because I'm trying my whole best to stay calm, doesn't give you the chance to misbehave with me. I'm still your hyung-

Jungkook: Then do your hyung-responsibilities! Why it should be always me who need to behave properly, even when you do the wrong, huh?' he said in a bratty tone and Jimin snapped in front of him with a stern look.

Jimin: Jeon Jungkook! Mind your tone.' He warned and Jungkook just rolled his eyes.

Jungkook: Stay out of it hyung. That doesn't concern you cause you are not in my place." He snapped his pointer finger rudely with a very rare snappy tone, making every hyungs' eyes wide! 

And Tae's eyes blazed at the audacity of the makhne of house....
