I woke up with a small groan, the sun shining through the blinds of a window. I slowly got up, swinging my legs over the edge of the bed and reluctantly dragging myself to the window. I covered my eyes as I closed the blinds, earning a small hum of satisfaction from myself. I turned my gaze to look at the quiet snoring that was bouncing off the walls. I saw Taehyung sleeping, his arms tangled in the blankets. Smiling, I walked over then stopped when I got to the edge of the bed, staring down at him as my smile slowly faded away.

I can picture the car wreck in my head. It was on my dream last night. All I can remember was the crash and the scream of my mother.

Crash

That single sound would haunt me forever. But I need to be strong for Joseph.. I need to go check on him anyway.

I gently bit my lip and made my way to the door, freezing when my hand touched the doorknob.

"Jo-Ah~" a voice called my name, barely above a whisper but still audible.

Hands snaked around my waist, pulling me against a warm wall. Breath tickled my neck, giving me chills down my spine that weren't exactly comfortable.

"Come lay back down, I'm cold..." his voice echoed in my left ear, sending a bit more chills.

"Cuddle a blanket then. I have to go check on Joseph.." He tightened his grip at my words, letting out a groan of annoyance as he slowly shook his head.

"He's fiiiiine, come lay back down." He tried convincing me once again, this time, it worked.

I slowly backed up as he pulled me back into bed, letting go as he laid me down. He layed down next to me with a smile, staying silent.

HA! YOU THOUGHT KIM TAEHYUNG!

I jumped up and ran for the door, sprinting through the door as I jogged down the hall and into Josephs room, seeing he was still asleep let me breathe out a sigh of relief.

I slowly walked over and fixed his hair a bit; he needed a hair cut. I smiled as he moved around a bit, stretching before turning over and facing me while he stayed asleep. My smile quickly faded once I noticed the wet pillow and the tears stains that were on his face. I feel bad for telling him but I had no other choice...

I leaned down and kissed his forehead before tucking him in a bit and walking back out the door, closing it behind me.

I didn't feel like going back to the bedroom so I decided to grab myself a bowl of cereal. How healthy!

Eating quickly, I hadn't even looked at the time. I jumped up but stopped when I smacked my forehead, my cheeks full of milk and small cereal pieces.

Today was Saturday... No school until Monday..

Ah, I can relax~!

I let out another sigh of relief and relaxation as I walked back to the bedroom, seeing Taehyung sitting on the edge of the bed, wide awake.

"What're you doing...?" I muttered out, rubbing my eyes with a small yawn.

He held out his arms "waiting for you, pabo" He grabbed my wrists and pulled me to him, my butt landing on his lap.

"I'm sorry about everything. I wish I could help you... I've been meaning to ask this for a couple days but I never had the courage. I actually feel horrible for asking at as time like this but I don't like holding it in any longer. I hate holding in secrets and I don't feel like keeping this one any longer than I have to....-" He went on and on, seeming like he'd never stop.

"-Just spit it out!" I interrupted him.

"Will you....Start tying my ties in the morning?" He smiled at me, his rectangular smile.

I smacked his chest, glaring at him. "Yah, Tae, that isn't funny! You seriously scared me, I thought it was something serious...!"

Then my words were cut off by his lips landing on mine, sending butterflies to my stomach.

"Will you date me?" He suddenly asked as he pulled away, waiting for an answer from the sudden question, leaning his forehead against mine.

I've been wanting him to ask this since I first started liking him. I'm sure his fangirls would care a lot.

He stared into my eyes, waiting and lining for the answer. He was serious. This wasn't a joke at all..

Biting my bottom lip before answering, I thought for a second. Many thoughts and future plans going through my head.

We could have a future together. Maybe marriage, kids, ...Fights?

Should I say yes? Or no?

I also have to think about all of the hate I will and can get from all of his fangirls. I'll probably be bullied for a while because of all of this.

It also came with lots of good points. I've wanted this, Choa and Ji-Hyun would cheer me on no matter what, I practically lived with him at the moment, and he stole my first kiss.

Is it bad that it want him to be my first everything? He was my first kiss, he could be my first boyfriend, too.

I smiled a bit and returned the kiss before slowly nodding my head, my arms going around his neck.

"I'll give you everthing I can. I may not be able to make you forget everything about yesterday but I'll try to take away the pain. Now, go take a shower so I can take you out for some apology icecream. Then I'll order pizza for dinner tonight for all of us." He rambled on as he picked me up off of his lap snd set me on the ground, handing me my bag with my stuff inside while he ushered me into the bathroom outside of his room.

Taehyung started the shower and showed me how it worked before pointing at an unused toothbrush and toothpaste.

It was like he was expecting me to stay the night and everything. I shrugged lightly and nodded my head, locking the door once he walked out.

I took a quick shower, ending up crying through most of it because I was already soaked with water, so why not?

I brushed my teeth after getting dressed in a pair of shorts and one of Taehyung's shirts that had been laying on the ground. It was oversized but I was comfortable.

I had a feeling that I would like being with Taehyung more than I thought. Stop thinking about the future and focus on the present. The past doesn't matter when you have the present. I need to think positive more often and Taehyung is one of those reasons why I should.

I'm greatfull to have him in my life and I hope we have an amazing future together.
