Jungkook saw it.
He heard it loud and clear.
Taehyung's vulnerability that was peeking out.
Jungkook slowly raised a hand towards him and gave him a small smile,
"Taehyungie."Taehyung couldn't help the loud gasp he took as he stared at Jungkook.
He just let Jungkook's voice wash over him like the sunlight.
He couldn't make any loud reactions, he didn't want to break this bubble around them.
He didn't want Jungkook to stop talking again.
For days he waited for Jungkook to speak. He gave him all the time he needed. He let him heal and gave him everything he wanted.
He couldn't take it if Jungkook stopped talking again. Not after hearing his voice after a long week.
A long week of guilt slowly killed him from the inside.
He wished Jungkook would just tell him, and drop all of it on him. He'll carry all that baggage for as long as it weighs Jungkook down.
He'll take it and then he'll make sure to destroy every piece of it with his love and reassurance.
He regretted ever writing that letter. He regretted he wasn't fast enough to save both of them.
He should have known his cub loves him just as much as he does.
He should have known that if he couldn't live without Jungkook, how could he expect Jungkook to do the same after all that happened throughout his life.
He was Jungkook's strength, his support and he himself thought of leaving his cub alone knowing full well the man can't even eat without him.
It took him a whole minute to process Jungkook's words before he moved.
In two long steps, he pulled Jungkook tight in his arms picking him right off the ground.
Jungkook yelped as his hands held the back of Taehyung's leather jacket tightly.
Taehyung's arms were bruising around him but for him, it just felt like a warm blanket in the cold.
Taehyung pulled his face back and let Jungkook wrap his legs around his waist. He walked over outside the room and leaned Jungkook's back on a wall.
Then he just stared at him trying to believe it was really happening. Jungkook too let him take his time.
After what felt like an eternity a word managed to escape those trembling lips,
"A-again."Jungkook hugged him hiding his face in his neck and whispered,
"I love you."Taehyung took a shaky breath in and let his tears flow down his face. Jungkook could feel his body shaking yet he kept silent.
