Fri [ends] ミ Taennie

Stealthy.

As Taehyung gazed at Jennie, his heart ached with a mix of emotions. He felt a deep sense of disappointment in himself for not protecting her from Kai's abuse. He couldn't shake off the thought that he should have been more vigilant, more proactive in shielding her from harm.

Taehyung's eyes lingered on Jennie's tear-stained face, and he knew that this incident would leave a deep wound on her heart. He could see the pain and fear lingering in her eyes, and it tore him apart.

"Why didn't I do more?" Taehyung thought, his mind racing with self-doubt. "I should have been stronger, faster...I should have protected her."

He felt a surge of anger towards Kai, but it was tempered by a sense of responsibility. He knew that he couldn't turn back time, but he could be there for Jennie now.

As he watched Jennie cry, Taehyung made a silent promise to himself: he would do everything in his power to support her, to help her heal, and to ensure that she never felt alone or vulnerable again.

In that moment, Taehyung's feelings for Jennie went beyond friendship or camaraderie. He realized that he cared for her deeply, and he would do anything to protect and cherish her.

Without a word, Taehyung stood up and strode over to Jennie, his eyes locked on hers. Jisoo, still tending to Jennie's wrists, looked up in surprise as Taehyung gently but firmly took Jennie from her.

In a move that left everyone in the room speechless, Taehyung wrapped his arms around Jennie, pulling her into a tight, protective embrace. Jennie, taken aback, hesitated for a moment before melting into his hold, her face burying into his chest.

The room fell silent, the only sound Jennie's muffled sobs and Taehyung's steady heartbeat. The members of Blackpink and BTS exchanged stunned glances, unsure how to react.

Jisoo's eyes widened in surprise, while Lisa and Rosé looked on with a mix of shock and curiosity. The bts boys raised their eyebrows, except for Jimin and suga who exchanged a knowing glance.

Taehyung's hug was more than just a comforting gesture; it was a declaration of protection, of care, and of something more. As he held Jennie close, he whispered softly into her ear, "I've got you, Jennie. I won't let anyone hurt you again."

The tension in the room was palpable, the air thick with unspoken emotions.

As the moments passed, the other members slowly got up and began to file out of the room, sensing that Taehyung and Jennie needed some time alone. Jisoo, however, lingered for a moment, her eyes fixed on Taehyung's back.

With a gentle touch, Jisoo pressed her hand on Taehyung's shoulder, a silent gesture that spoke volumes. It was as if she was saying, "I'm leaving her in your care. Protect her."

Taehyung nodded almost imperceptibly, his arms still wrapped tightly around Jennie. Jisoo smiled softly and followed the others out of the room, closing the door behind her.
