Never without you

Chapitre 31

Day by day the group used to each other, getting his bearings. Hoseok, rather Hobi as he asked them to call him, was a very good teacher for them, showing to the group all the nature could offer. Finding some stones near the rocks he showed them how to make some axe with wood and vines. Soon, there was a group of lumberjacks, as they needed it for the fire. Some flat stones were used to cook fishes and seafood. Taehyung and Jinhyoon proposed to do the laundry, Jin to catch fishes... everyone had a daily task, and it was exhausted. After a week, Taehyung noticed Jinhyoon was always sad, even if she hid her tears, but Taehyung heard her soft sobbing at night... He had chosen to sleep at the other end of the cavern, even if they were scattered most of them where not far from the campfire. Taehyung missed Jungkook so much, but he couldn't find the way to get closer to him, it was like his body didn't accept to be closed to Jungkook. Maybe it was because of the side effects, it was at least his hope, but he knew deep down it was just because of him. He was truly unable to make the first step even if he wanted to.

Every early morning, Jin, Namjoon, Yoongi and HinJin, a small guy who didn't hesitate to dive to pick sea food, came to the beach and came back when the sun was high in the sky, with their catch. They were lucky the sea was rich in fish...

At the same time, other groups went to the forest to cut wood and catch fruits. Hobi was with them, his knowledge of the nature was essential. One day, the young man jumped for joy at the sight of a luxurious ferns beside a little waterway. The vegetal was edible ! They found other plants too and came back to the camp. This evening, their meal had unknown taste and they all appreciated to eat something new.

It's been almost three weeks since they arrived in the island, and Taehyung was now deeply sad and angry. Why ? because Jungkook had a new friend, the girl who was with him in the plane, and she seemed to like him very much. Shany. That was her name. Taehyung noticed the way she always grabbed his arm when they were talking, and her laugh was bringing him in the deep of thoughts he didn't want to have. But he did have these needed to murder her each time she dared to touch his Kooky. Did things had changed between the two ? of course not. Each one being a coward, waiting for the other to say or do something. At this point, the situation made them be crazy, but they were good to not show it. Taehyung was most of the time lost in his thoughts, and he didn't really pay attention to what people were talking about when they were all gathered around the fire. He realized some time ago he was deeply afraid. For and from everything. His brain couldn't but imagine what could happen to them, it was exhausting. He didn't eat much, being so stressed he couldn't swallow not much. Jungkook noticed all of that, of course, and it worried him a lot to see the man he loved so lost.

One evening, Taehyung was about to go to sleep when Jinhyoon came to him and asked for a hug. He complied with joy as he missed so much the warmth of a hug. He would have killed someone to cuddle Jungkook right now. After a good minute in the embrace of the young woman, she looked at him with a soft smile.

-you know, Tae, I hope that someday, you will realize how short the life is. Stop wasting your time and go to him.

Taehyung was speechless, were they so obvious ??

She quickly pecked his cheek and went to sleep, leaving a silent Taehyung.

Soon, he was in the arms of Morpheus and his dreams were full of Jungkook. and Shany. There were rather nightmares, and he wake up early in the morning, his heart loudly bumping in his chest, his forehead sweaty.
