Brotherly Love

How Could You?

"How did you turn in my arms?" Jungkook asked noticing that he has changed their posture and was facing him instead.

"Do I need to remind you how deep a sleeper you are?" He smiled.

"You gave me quite a scare" Jungkook smiled back to him, referring to his fever.

"I'm sorry about that" Taehyung apologized.

"It's okay" Jungkook looked around and could see daylight seeping in through the door "we need to get back" Jungkook looked at him "you need some medication."

He nodded "I know" he sighed "but what are you going to wear?" He asked pointing at his soaked top that was lying beside him.

"I will manage it, we just need to get home and I will change out of it."

Taehyung nodded and tried to get up and he helped him "strange" he commented when they were already up.

"What?" Taehyung asked looking at him.

"Dad hasn't called you, neither mom. I didn't come out with my own phone, so I was not expecting their calls, but you, nothing."

Taehyung stared at him and then winced "f*ck."

Jungkook  brows furrowed "what?"

Taehyung reached into his pocket only to bring out his phone "I totally forgot about it" he answered as he tried to turn on the phone but it refused to turn on. He cursed as he opened the back to remove the battery, there was traces of water in the phone and he cursed again "how did I forget this?"

"Just leave it like this to air out when we get home" Jungkook suggested and he nodded.

"I just hope it still works. Maybe if it happen to be sunny today, I will just leave it in my window. We need to get to school you know?"

"We need to pass mom and dad first and you need to take your medicine."

He chuckled "I almost forgot we have fire brewing at home."

Jungkook chuckled before leaving to change into his clothes. Taehyung returned the curtain to the room, when he came back, Jungkook handed him his shirt and he put it on. They took the books and left the church.

When they got home, they saw their parents standing at the porch looking everywhere to find them 

"we are in trouble" Taehyung commented.

"Yes we are" Jungkook agreed as they made their way to the house. Their parents saw them and Jieun already walked down the porch to meet them "good morning mom."

"Where were you two?" She demanded. Their father already walked up to them too.

"We are sorry mom" Taehyung apologized.

"Sorry? Did you say sorry Taehyung? Look at you. You are his elder and you did this? I never expected this from you!" Jieun shouted.

"I'm sorry" he repeated.

"Why did the two of you leave the house without telling us? Do you know how worried your mother was? She couldn't sleep last night. Wondering where you guys will be, thinking if you were safe, especially you Taehyung. You know how your body reacts whenever you were in the rain, and yet? Not only did you leave the house but you took Jungkook with you! Tell me, what makes you his senior?" Hojun was furious.

"Dad, Tae didn't..." Jungkook began.

"Shut up" Jieun shushed him "we told you two to leave the book till this morning. We settled everything last night and you agreed only to leave the house on your own accord?"
