Time skip- a week later

"Tae! You're here!" Jungkook said, more like shouted excitedly.

Every day, since jungkook woke up until he went to sleep, taehyung was with him. Every moment they shared together, jungkook got closer to the other, which taehyung noticed and did everything he could do to make jungkook even more close to him.

He still felt sad about the fact that jungkook didn't remember him, but he could tell that the younger tried very hard.

"Yes kookie, I'm here. Are you ready?"

He said and hugged the younger to calm him down a bit. Today he was coming back home and he was very excited.

"I'm ready tae, can we please go now? This place is making me sick" jungkook begged, and taehyung happily nodded.

(At their house)

"This is our room?" Jungkook asked with huge eyes, shocked, when taehyung showed him the house.

"Yeah, it's big isn't it? when we came here for the first time you had the same expression"

taehyung giggled when he remembered the first time they saw their room.

"Yeah it is. Do we sleep on the same bed?"

Jungkook asked curiously, and the older nodded.

"When we first came here you said you wanted to share a room with me because you wanted to cuddle until we fell asleep, and wake up to the sight of me in front of you. You stared at me for a few minutes and then you showered my face with kisses until I woke up completely. If you're not comfortable with sleeping with me you can sleep in the room that was supposed to be yours from the beginning" taehyung said with a sad small smile.

"Oh, okay" was all jungkook could say. "Do you have a picture of us together on a special event?" Taehyung nodded.

"Can I see it please?"

Again taehyung nodded, and gave him a picture of them when they graduated.

"Thank you tae. Can I be alone for a few moments?" Jungkook pleased.

"Yeah sure, I'll go and make us lunch in the meantime so take your time"

taehyung said while he hugged him and left the room.

Jungkook sat on their bed with the picture in his hand, and just looked at it. He tried to remember something from the event. Even if it was the tiniest thing.

Jungkook POV

We stood there, waiting for our turn. When taehyung's turn finally came he looked at me lovingly before he took the stage and the principle gave his speech right before taehyung.

"Fighting babe!" I whispered and he smiled sweetly at me.

After he gave his speech and I dried my tears, the principle called my name and taehyung did the same as I did.

"Fighting my kookie!" He whispered in my ear, and I pecked his lips quickly before smiling at him and going up to the stage.

I could see from the corner of my eye that taehyung cried from speech, and when I got off stage i ran out him and hugged him tight.

"That's it kookie. Can you believe that this is our fucking graduation? Starting from tomorrow there is no school anymore!" He said excitedly and cried even more.

When it was time to throw our graduate caps, we shouted in unison,

"I love you Kim Taehyung!"

"I love you Jeon Jungkook!"

We giggled at our perfect timing and threw up our caps before we kissed. Jin, being the mom and 'number one fan of the taekook ship' he is, took a picture of us and gave it to us after he put it in a pink frame with little hearts around it. As expected from the pink princess he is.

-End of flashback-

After that sudden flashback, I tried to calm myself down before I ran to taehyung in full speed and back hugged him while he was cutting vegetables.

"Hyung I remember" I said calmly, although inside I was jumping up and down.

"What?!"

He shouted shocked and turned around to face me.

"What exactly do you remember?"

He added while trying to calm himself down.

"Our graduation. Hyung I remember our graduation"

I said and he immediately hugged me tight.

"Do you realize what it means kookie? you are starting to remember! Omg I'm so freaking happy!"

"Yeah me too hyung"

I said and kissed his cheek. He just smiled and stared at me for a few seconds before he said,

"Food will be ready in five minutes, you can watch tv in the meantime"

"Okay tae, call me if you need help with anything"

I said before I flashed him a sweet smile and went to the living room.

Although maybe I looked like I was focused on the tv, I wasn't. Actually I was thinking about Taehyung and sometimes I noticed that he looked at me a few seconds before he sighed sadly to himself and continued what he was doing.

I can't even imagine what he's feeling right now. Every time he looks at me I can see the love and sadness mixed together. It's really breaking my heart.

He's having a hard time with me, because every time he wants to kiss me, he can't. Every time he wants to cuddle with me, he can't. Every time he wants to tell me how much he loves me, he can't. And I know it's all my fault from the beginning.

My thoughts got cut when he called me, probably because food was ready.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

While we were eating, he asked,

"Kookie what were you thinking about before? You weren't even looking to the TV's direction"

"You"

I said simply, although he looked pretty shocked.

"Me?" I nodded.

"I thought about the hard time you must be having with me, and things I notice you want to do but you can't. I thought about the endless love you feel towards me, while I barely know you. I also thought about ways to help you with the hard time you're having with me" I said while looking at him deep in the eyes.

"Kookie it's okay, really. I know that you'll remember everything eventually, at least I hope so, but the last thing I want right now is your brain to get damaged even more. I'll wait even ten years for you, so don't rush yourself too much. You don't have to worry about it, okay?"

Hyung said and gently kissed my forehead. I know that every single word he said was sincere and came from the bottom of his heart, but still I can't stop thinking about how sad he is without the kookie he knew before, and not the kookie I am now.

He doesn't love me - he loves the kookie that he knew ever since he was six. He loves the kookie that was his best friend and boyfriend. He loves the kookie that always back hugged him while telling him how much he loves him. He loves the kookie that  loved and adored him back and made him happy with one single word or action.

All of those things were in my mind 24/7. From the moment I woke up, until now.

All of the sudden, my body felt loose, my eyes rolled to the back of my head, and everything became black.
