"Now do you remember. Do you remember me Tae?" HoSeok calls out bringing Taehyung back to his senses.
"You- you're not really here. I'm hallucinating. You're not real." Taehyung mutters mostly to himself. He turns away from HoSeok and closes his eyes.
He opens them a second later and turns back to where HoSeok is standing. He reaches out and grabs HoSeok's hand. He lifts it up and plays with his fingers.
"No. No." Taehyung whispers and backs away again. "You, you're dead."
He takes a shaky breath. "I watched you die.""Yes. I am dead." HoSeok says and sits down on Taehyung's bed. Taehyung flinches but didn't do anything else. "However your promise brought me back when you started developing feelings for that Jungkook guy."
"What are you talking about. I don't like Jungkook." Taehyung scowls.
"Why else would I be here?"
Taehyung pauses and looks away from HoSeok. He takes another shaky breath and clutches his head.
"No. It's a dream. It's all a dream." Taehyung gasps. He rocks back and forth.
"The sooner you accept it the easier it'll be." HoSeok says and turns to face Taehyung. He scoots closer to him. He reaches his pale hand out and cups Taehyung's cheek. Taehyung looks up to see HoSeok's dark chocolate brown eyes. HoSeok brings himself closer and lays his lips on Taehyung's. Taehyung felt familiarity from the boy and closes his eyes as well. HoSeok pulls away and gets off the bed. He walks towards the window and he disintegrates. Taehyung lays still on his bed.
"Not true. It can't be. No." He whispers to himself as he stares at the spot where HoSeok had disappeared. However, he knew he had felt warmth coming from HoSeok. He felt his own skin brush against his.
Taehyung's eyes cloud over and a single tear falls. Taehyung doesn't bother to brush it away. He turns on his side, waiting to be told that he had imagined that all. That he was okay now and that HoSeok was really gone.
However, no one came. No one comforts him. He feels another tear trail down his face with another one following it.
That day that he witnessed HoSeok's death, it had crushed Taehyung. Now Hoseok was back to bring all the memories that Taehyung wanted to disappear. He would be haunted by his face everywhere he went. He would never forget.
He screams as loud as he can and threw the first thing he saw, which was a book lying on his desk near his bed. He takes another one and throws that as well. He throws it at the spot where HoSeok was.
He drops to his knees and he buries his face in his hands. He sobs quietly letting loose all of his emotions. His grief, anger, despair. After all that, he only feels empty, lonely. He lays down on the floor and hugs his knees.
Jungkook's face flashed in his head and anger returned.
"Your fault." He whispers. "All your fault! Why'd you do this!"
He sits up and slams his hands on the floor. His anger subsided and he slumped over. His eyes close and his breath evens out.
HoSeok appears again right next to Taehyung and he reaches out to pat his head. He smiles sadly and a tear trails down his face.
"I'm sorry."
JUNGKOOK's POV
After Taehyung left the cafe, Jungkook continued working however he couldn't stop worrying about Taehyung.Had something happened to make him suddenly change like that? He was acting really strange. One minute he would look fine and then his face had an unbearable expression of sadness on it.
He stops wiping the table after he realizes he's been cleaning the same spot for sometime. He sighs and walks back to the employee room after he puts the washcloth back where it belongs.
He changes from his work clothes and heads out of the cafe after saying bye to his boss. He walks over to his bike and unchains it. He gets on and rides away from the cafe.
He stops at a convenient store and hurries inside to buy a few things for dinner. He pays and immediately heads back home. His mother is waiting for him however Jungkook manages to avoid her. He sneaks into his room and doesn't relax until the door is locked.
"Aish. Why am I sneaking around like this? Honestly." He mutters to himself and flops onto his bed. He closes his eyes and yawns. However before he could fall asleep completely, he hears footsteps approaching from the hall.
His eyes flash open and he waits. The doorknob clicks as someone tries to open the door but it is no use. Then a knock comes next. Slow, soft, but still able to be heard.
"Jungkook-ah." A male voice calls out. "Jungkook-ah I'm coming in." Jungkook glances at the door once more to make sure it is completely locked. He sighs and closes his eyes again.
"Kookie." Someone says right next to his ear and Jungkook jumps back. Before him stands Kim Taehyung.
"H-how did you get in?!" Jungkook asks and quickly looks at the door. It's open all the way.
"Your mom lent me the key." Taehyung says and stretches.
"What?!" He yells and groans. "Of course she did." He glances behind Taehyung. "Why did you bring a bag?"
"Hmm?" Taehyung replies and glances behind himself as well. "Oh about that," he hesitates all of a sudden. "Would it be alright if I spent the night here?"
