HIS PERPETRATOR |TK|

28

The sound of people talking and laughing can be heard in the living room of Jungkook's and Jin's shared apartment as they are having guests today. Much to Jungkook's irritation, guests are none other than Taehyung Jimin and Hoseok.

When Jimin and Taehyung went back to their dorm that night, they told the members about Soo-Rah and showed them the pictures of her. They all cooed at how cute she is, and after that, Hoseok also wanted to meet her, so that's how they ended up here after a week.

It's not that they go to every fans house they find cute, but it's the only way Taehyung can meet Jungkook. That's why he proposed the idea of going to their house to meet them.

Taehyung can see that Jungkook is not happy by their presence here as he is not trying to hide his displeasure by his expressions.

On the other hand, Jungkook was so irritated by their presence. It was his day off, and he thought of spending it the way he wanted, not by hosting the uninvited guests. He huffed, annoyed, catching Jin's attention.

"I know you're not happy by their presence, but at least put on a smile on your face. Your irritation is clearly showing, and they also seem to notice it." Jin said to Jungkook, at which he again huffed and said,

"Good that they noticed, then they'll not think of coming here after this."

Jin pursed his lips in a thin line at the younger's remark. They both were in the kitchen, and Taehyung was watching them from the living room talking about something. He then excused himself from there and came into the kitchen, and Jungkook looked at him with angry eyes.

"Why are you here?" Jungkook asked angrily while folding his arms against his chest.

Taehyung rubbed his neck nervously and said,

"C-can I talk to you?"

Jungkook raised his eyebrow at his question and rudely replied,

"NO."

"Please, for once at least give me one chance to explain myself." Taehyung said with pleading eyes.

"What will it change, huh? Will my life get better, or will it change everything I went through, huh? Nothing will change what happened has happened now. Your explanation will not change anything, so keep your excuses to yourself and stay away from me and my daughter." Jungkook spatted all this angrily in one breath. Jin and Taehyung were looking at him with wide eyes.

"Kim Taehyung, you chose to leave me for this life, now live it without me. Don't come to me with your bullshit of excuses because it will not change anything." Jungkook said in gritted teeth while coming closer to him, making Taehyung gulp at his low voice.

"Believe me, it's not true. I tried so much to reach out to you, but nothing worked. It was like you just vanished from earth. No one knew about you." Taehyung said desperately, trying to make him understand that he is not at fault. Jungkook scoffed at his words and looked to his right side. He closed his eyes tightly and inhaled deeply, again looked at him in the eyes and started,

"Okay, I heard you and believe you what you said. Now, what? What is the purpose of you explaining yourself. what do you want?" Jungkook asked firmly while looking dead in his eyes.

"You back in my life." Taehyung answered without batting his eyes away from him. Jungkook looked at him with a clenched jaw and said,

"You'll not say this after finding out the whole truth about me."

"I'll say this no matter what the truth is."

"I'm not pure like before." He uttered. His tough damneour breaking.

"Me neither. No one's pure."

"I've been used b-by many." Jungkook's voice broke.

"I'll erase the trace of them from you." He came closer to him and wiped his tears from his cheeks.

"We are of n-no m-match." Jungkook whispered. Both are standing so close to each other.

"We are a match made in heaven."

"No one will accept me beside you."

"I accept you, and that's enough."

"They'll hate me."

"My love is much more than that."

That's it. That was the final blow for the walls Jungkook had built around his heart to break, and he tightly hugged him while sobbing on his chest.

By this time, everyone was looking at them, and Jin also had moist eyes. He wiped his tears and smiled while looking at the couple in front of him. He prayed that everything would go right from now onwards in the younger's life.

Taehyung, when he felt that younger, had stopped crying detached himself from him and wiped his tears while looking at him with heart eyes.

"I will never leave you again." He whispered.

A tear again dropped from Jungkook's eyes, and he hugged him again and stuffed his face in his neck.

They both separated from hug and looked at each other with soft smiles. They were so lost in each other. Their trance was broken when someone cleared his throat. That's when they got reminded of their surroundings and looked around just to see everyone looking at them. They became embarrassed and quickly let go of each other and stood at the distance.

"Ahmm, I think we should go. It's getting late." Hoseok then said to break the awkward silence, and both Taehyung and Jimin agreed to it.

Taehyung looked at Jungkook and hugged him one last time while pecking his forehead and said,

"I hope you'll don't mind me coming here again?" He said sheepishly.

Jungkook said nothing but just shook his head. Getting flustered by older's actions. Taehyung smiled widely at the other flustered state and, after pecking his forehead for last time, went from there while bidding his goodbye to Jin and a sweet peck to Soo-Rah on her cheecks which she returned gladly.

Jungkook's smile vanished from his face as soon as they left. He looked down at his hands and thought in his mind,

"You'll definitely be disgusted after knowing the truth and will leave me."
