Young Forever

I Need U

Tiffany seemed stunned upon learning that Taehyung has already left. Thoughts crashed in her mind one by one. Without saying goodbye? Why leave? Where is he now?

"He said he had to go to his parents because you're finally safe here. If it makes you feel better, I asked him to stay but he declined. By the way, he left something for you. It's on the table. I think he's a great guy. I thought you would even date him. I'd have no problem at all. It would be him who would have the problem with me because of the threatening and stuff but—" he looked around and realized that he had been talking to himself.

Tiffany ran out of the house. She doesn't remember the way to the bus station because she was busy with her thoughts so she had to ask around where it was.

Upon reaching the bus station, she saw Taehyung about board the bus.

With all of the remaining energy she has left, she screamed his name out loud.

"Yah Kim Taehyung! You're leaving?! Just like that?!"

Tiffany cried her eyes out. She didn't even care about the people staring at her.

"No no, please don't cry." Taehyung walked towards her. He instantly felt guilty for leaving but he thought it was better for everyone if he left.

"Then don't leave." Tiffany said as she held him tightly.

"Are you sure?"

She nodded as she pulled him out of the station.

"Taehyung?" She uttered when she suddenly stopped walking.

"Yes?"

"Am I being selfish? Are you only staying because I said so?"

"Honestly... I wanted to stay—"

He has yet to finish his sentence when he suddenly found Tiffany's lips in his.

Surprised as he was, he froze for a second and then began to kiss her back.

"No this isn't right." He stopped immediately.

Tiffany looked worried. When Taehyung said that this as in them is not right, a lot of thoughts crashed her mind.

Seeing her confused face, Taehyung reminded her about Jimin.

"I know I may have confessed my feelings to you back at the motel but Jimin's my best friend and you guys are together. Trust me if I had no conscience at all, I would have kissed you back when you stopped me from leaving."

Tiffany continued to look puzzled.

"Don't worry. I still won't leave you but we could only be friends, okay?" Taehyung offered her a handshake.

"Friends?" Tiffany looked disappointed especially when he reached her hand and shook it to seal the deal.

"There. Friends." He said as he let go of her hand. "Now don't go surprising me again with kisses. You might have certain feelings for me but I think you should control yourself." He winked at her and then proceeded to walk back to the house.

Upon entering the door, Tiffany's father welcomed the two of them and said that the food was ready.

"Taehyung..."

"Yes Fany?"

Tiffany then began to tell Taehyung what happened earlier.

Before taking a bath, she used her father's burner phone to call Jimin's house.

Jimin asked how they are. He was glad that she's now safe with her father. As they talked, he suddenly confessed that he knows everything. Taehyung's feelings and hers. He told her that when he asked Taehyung to save her, he had already accepted the possibility of them getting together. He just wants his friends to be happy. He also told her that it might be best if they don't talk for a while so that they wouldn't be traced and also, so that he could finally start to move on.
