I Need You (Kim Taehyung)

31

"Can you hurry up?!" TaeLyn yells for the third time as she sits on the kitchen counter eating grapes while she waits for Jungkook to come down. "I'm almost done," he yells down with wide eyes, a towel wrapped around his waist as he quickly searches for clothes. As soon as he gets his jeans on and slips on a t-shirt, he starts to slip on his socks when TaeLyn appears with a glare. "Yah!" Jungkook jumps in place but continues to put on his clothes. "You said you were almost done!" he smiles sheepishly and slings his backpack over his shoulder. "It's picture day, noona."

"Doesn't mean you have to take an hour longer." She follows after him, into her room as he looks through her clothes. "What are you doing?"

"That dress is too short." She rolls her eyes and looks down at the dress. "I brought extra jeans to change, can we go now?"

"You are not going like th-" TaeLyn grabs Jungkook's ear and pulls him out of her room and down the hallway. "Noona-" she shoves him out the door, into the arms of Kim Taehyung. "My friend-"

"What the hell are you wearing?"

"You don't have the picture till last period, can't you change right now?" TaeLyn becomes annoyed with her lovely boyfriend, not hearing a single good compliment leave his mouth. She rips her hand out of his hand and walks off, joining her only group of friends. She smiles as she begins to greet them but Jimin's constant shaking and Yoongi's words of comfort towards his stepbrother catch her off guard. "Hey..." she slowly says, catching their attention. "What's going on?" Yoongi jumps at her voice, hoping she didn't hear a word. Trying to take her focus off of Jimin's position, pre-breakdown, he compliments her outfit. "Wow, you look great-"

"Hyung? Don't you think it's too short?"

"Right!" Jungkook agrees. Yoongi just rolls his eyes. "Compared to everyone else's skirts and dresses, it's long. Stop being such dweebs and let her be a girl." TaeLyn still couldn't keep her eyes off Jimin. Everyone noticed and followed her eyesight, becoming equally concerned. "What's going on?" Jungkook asked. Sunny approached them, taking her place under Jungkook's arm, and expecting a conversation. "Yoongi?" he sighed and looked away. They were impatient when neither answered. Jimin was freaking out. He hadn't even paid attention to what anyone was saying. All he could think about was the fact that she was here, and it was only making it harder for him. He didn't know why she was or here or what she wanted but it bothered him. "Jimin," he looked away from the ground. Five pairs of eyes stared at him with a questionable gaze, wondering what was troubling him. "Tell them." His nail was bleeding from how much he bit it off. Jimin opened his mouth, trying to speak only to close it again and shake his head. "Dude-"

"I saw her walking out of the mall yesterday. She was with JaeHyun and with-" With my son. "I-I thought I was imaging things so I followed them. E-Even he saw them." His finger gestures towards Yoongi. "She's staying at JaeHyun's and-"

"Who, dude?" Jimin was scared of her. After all the times she denied him the right to see his own child, she shows up here to torture him. "Ah-"

"TaeLyn!" An ecstatic voice screams when she spots the long brown haired girl, surrounded by the people she expected to see her around. TaeLyn turns her head and sees one of the people she despises the most in this world since they last saw each other. All other eyes meet her as well. "Fuck." She curses, squeezing Taehyung's hand, that had squirmed its way into hers. JaeHyun tried to smile but she couldn't her heart still ached as she watched the two of them hold hands. He looked away, his heart sinking for hurting that girl. No one noticed. I mean he did just look away, equally surprised that Ah Ro had returned but who else noticed that eye contact between him and JaeHyun.

"TaeLyn! How have you been? I missed you so-" TaeLyn steps back as Ah Ro raises her arms and steps in for a hug. No words are spoken. There's just a thick sheet of tension between them. "Taehyung-" he steps behind TaeLyn, wanting to be away from the both of them. "Kook-" TaeLyn lets go of Taehyung's hand and grabs her brother's wrist as he attempts to gladly accept the hug. "Let's go," she pulls him along, taking Jimin as well. "Noona, why are you being so-"

"Don't." she turns to him. His eyebrows were furrowed, and head tilted sideways. "I'm taking him to class," Yoongi says, dragging Jimin away. "Why are you being so rude to-"

"I told you... Don't." He sighs, running a hand through his hair. One of his hands grips his backpack, his tongue poking the inside of his cheek in a pissed off manner. "Is it about what happened last time?" he was angry that his sister could hold a grudge for so long. "It was a misunderstanding, Tae-"

"It was more than that and you know it." She growls, equally angry that her brother could ever assume such a thing. "Then what? What is it that has you acting like such a bitch to an old friend?" TaeLyn's mouth parts in disbelief, her eyes moistening at the way he referred to Ah Ro. All she could do was laugh. Laugh at the twinge in her heart. "Old friend?" She asks, giving him a look that almost makes his stomach quiver. "The old friend that only used me. The old friend that got pregnant with your best friend's baby and denied him his rights? The old friend that treated me like crap and still does to this day?" Jungkook rolled his eyes. "You don't know that. She's changed, TaeLyn. She knows what she did wrong and she wants to make things right-"

"Is that what she told you?" He stays quiet, not meeting her eyes and avoiding them. "You knew she was coming back and you didn't bother telling anyone?"

"It's none of their business." TaeLyn scoffs. "None of their business? Jungkook, it's Jimin's business if that bitch is coming back-"

"Don't call her that-"

"I can call her whatever the fuck I want and you're no one to stop me." They were in a quiet classroom away from the curious ears of their peers. They were already late to class and didn't care. "Let that little crush go, Jungkook. She's just using you and you know it-"

"Like Taehyung's using you? You want me to let go of my little crush like you did?" He was angry that his sister wouldn't accept him. He accepted him. She loved her brother more than anyone. She just didn't accept Ah Ro. "What are you saying?"

"Maybe Taehyung's just using you. Using you for sex like every other guy in this school wants to. And you're falling for it." She was quiet. She was mad. She was hurt. She shook as tears threatened to leave her eyes. "And you probably fell right into it-" Her fists balled at her sides and when she couldn't take it, she let them fly through the air and hit her brother. One collided against his cheekbones, the other opened and slapped him. Jungkook was surprised. Her chest trembled, and her lung ached. "You can walk home." She whispered, walking out the classroom door and down the hallway to her late class. Taehyung had stood beside the classroom to wait for her but she hadn't noticed. Tears slid down her cheeks, the wet trails glistening with the light as she entered the room. Jimin looked at her and stopped the constant shaking of his leg. "TaeLyn-" she shook her head, resting her head on the desk.

Jungkook stood in the classroom, angry. His growing bruise pulsated and the tears in his eyes from how angry he was, remained trapped in his eyes.

"You told me you stopped," Taehyung spoke as he leaned against the wall. "I thought after that argument with Ah Ro, you'd stop chasing after her." Jungkook rolled his eyes and biting his lip, not wanting to have another conversation. "And to say those things to her, your own sister, dude. Is Ah Ro really worth all this trouble-"

"Mind your own bus-"

"YOU HAVE A GIRLFRIEND AND THE MOMENT SHE RETURNS, YOU FALL AT HER FEET!" Taehyung exclaimed, glaring at his best friend.
