"Y/n promise me you'll listen carefully first and not say a word to Jungkook about this. Also you'll act like you never asked him where he's been going. Okay?" He looked at your face waiting for an answer "okayyy , but how did you know I asked where Jungkook had been disappearing off to?""I know every under world related thing going on in Jungkooks mind and so does father , if he speaks one more word to a human about the underworld , believe me , you'll never see him again."
"Taehyung what the hell are you talking about , what underworld , what human ? as far as I know Jungkook is a human being like me" you asked him , confused and annoyed.
"Y/n that's what you don't know." He softly spoke , worry in his eyes as he grabbed your hand and said "Y/n Jungkook is a demi-God. He's different from you , you guys can't be together or you'll end up hurting him" his grip on your hand tightened. "What? Us being together? Taehyung what're-" "Y/n I know you like him ,it's too obvious I don't know how he doesn't see it" you were caught off guard "and so does he, but it's for his own good to stay away from you and for you to stay out of his business"
You kept your silence summing up every time Jungkook hesitated when you wanted to talk about him , all the time he's been uncomfortable with you. It all makes sense now but at at the same time it doesn't. You laughed sarcastically "Tae are you seriously trying to tell me all of the fictional shit I've read in books is real?" "Well , partly" you stopped laughing and looked at him. For a minute you wanted to believe everything was a lie but his face didn't say so. "What God?" "God of the underworld , Jungkook is his son" he answered. "And you?" "I'm our mothers son , his step brother" oh.. It was still so hard to believe, you pulled your hands away from his and held your head in your hands and close your eyes trying to accept everything but it was hard. Taehyung patted you on the back "y/n please , I've erased his memory of the moment you asked him about his whereabouts , if he tells one more human about the underworld he'll get his punishment" your eyes flung open at this as you looked at Taehyungs face "one more human? Who's that?"
"Oh that , it's his- um his-"
why is he hesitating"his what?"
you asked "His ex"
now you knew why he was hesitating. "If you don't mind , can I know a little about what happened & who punished him" you asked him , broke. "Listen Jungkook likes you but he'll never confess , he's afraid he'll do to you what he had done to her"Taehyung told you in a polite manner. "What happened to her? I mean what did he do to her?"
You asked curiosity growing within each word Taehyung was saying. "He- he just isn't allowed to tell humans about the underworld nor bring them there but he did and she ended up losing her life as Jungkooks punishment & he was punished by father"
"Ohmygod" your voice was barely a whisper as you got up and walked in circles thinking about how this all could happen. "Now I can't confess my feelings for him to him?" You asked Tae and his head moved answering a no. "He'll only end up loving you which he clearly is trying not to"
"but if him taking her to the underworld gave him that punishment , won't he be careful enough not to take me there?" You asked , wanting him to give you a green signal so you could confess your feelings to Jungkook and end the awkward chemistry between the two of you and also because you can't live normally now knowing that he's likes you too.
"Y/n I've warned you now , I'll try my best for dad to not know if he tells you about the underworld, so let me know if you're still going to ask him again or confess. I wish you the best of luck , I'll be going now & he'll probably be asleep for a long time-" "how long" "for about like 1-2 days , its hard for him to rest there." "Okay thank you , take care" you watched as Taehyung picked his bag and left.
You struggled and moved Jungkook to his bed and put him under the covers , you weren't going to leave u till he wakes up. You walked over towards the couch weakly and slept there , you woke up after 3-4 hours , exhausted because of the night mare you had.
You saw that you're alone with a lot of people around you , all eyes filled with pity towards you.
You had a roughed up face and swollen eyes because you been crying and a sore throat because you kept screaming his name , expecting him to return. The weight of their pity was like a stone tied around your neck. You feel it in the little side glances , the puckered skin between frowning brows , the hushed whispers that carry across the purple-gray dusk of twilight like tiny draggers drawing blood. He isn't coming come. Thanking God this was only a night mare, but what if it wasn't.
You kept staring at Jungkook sleeping peacefully on the bed and thought about all the consequences of letting him know you liked him or after him telling you about the underworld. It was all negative but you knew, nor you neither him would live with ease ever again. You decided you'd ask him once again about where he's been going or tell him what had happened and how Taehyung told you everything and assure him you still want to stay by his side forever.
You wanted to confess your feelings and know his too , you wanted for you and him to spend a happy life together, you wanted him to know you both can do it. You were about to fall asleep again when you heard a little moan. You sat up straight and looked at him , it was from him. He moaned again and you quickly walked to him and sat beside him on the bed. He moaned again and you could see sweat all over his forehead. You hesitantly put your hand on his forehead and felt that it was burning hot. "Jungkook" you quietly said and moved his hair away from his forehead he moaned in pain again but this time with your name leaving his lips. He grabbed your hand and said something which barely reached your ears.
You bent down and asked what he said "water please" his voice barely audible , you rushed towards the kitchen and brought a glass of water and gave it to him yourself because he struggled getting up , he half laid and drank it as some of it dripped down his chin and you kept your hand under his chin , preventing the water from making him wet. After he was done you grabbed some tissues and wiped it off "I'm going to the pharmacy to get some medicine for you I'll be back quick" you said as you were about to leave but he stopped you "don't , I'll be okay" "but Jungkook-" "trust me I will, please don't, they won't work. Instead just come here and cuddle me to sleep I'm cold" you hesitated a bit to get under the covers but somehow managed to do it and laid facing your back towards him and a little far from him but he put his hand around your waist and pulled you closer to him , you could feel the heat from his body. He hugged you tight and whispered "thanks for calling out for me" you turned around to ask what he was talking about but he was fast asleep. You looked at his face , his cheeks were rosy because of the fever and his hair was on his forehead again so you moved them aside as you let your fingers swipe from his forehead down to his jaw and chin as you ran your thumb over his lips and he smiled. You quickly pulled your hand away, turned around away from him and blushed but he pulled you close again. Your heart was totally not normal.
