"y/n. I'm in here" I followed the sound of his deep, calming voice bringing me into Taehyung's room. "Come here" I made my way over to where he was sitting on the edge of his bed. "Take this." In his hands, he held a camera; it was anew one, probably the newest one that had been out which was also very expensive. I took it from him and examined it, playing around with it, checking everything from its aperture to shutter speed. I quickly stole a glance at Taehyung who seemed to be intrigued by the way I handled the camera. "Wow you really know what you're doing" he said, his jaw slightly dropped.

"Well this is my job" I chuckled. I handed him the camera. "but I'm sorry I just cant have this."

"What? Why not? I got this for you" he jumped up.

"Taehyung, I don't think you realise how expensive this was and how little I deserve it"

"What do you mean? You deserve everything" My heart sunk as he said that. He is so nice, it hurts to have to leave him soon.

"Taehyung, listen to me, you've only known me for a few days how can you trust me so easily-" he quickly cut me off.

"But I feel like I've known you forever. And I'm more than 100% sure we'll stay best friends even after you leave." Again, my heart began to hurt. I dropped to my knees and leaned my hands on his knees and looked up to face him.

"Taehyung, please stop." He stared down at me and tilted his head like a confused puppy. "Please, please, please. You don't understand how much you've done for me already. I don't deserve this. If I took it from you it'd just make me feel guilty."

"Okay" he smiled and cupped my cheek with his hand. He slowly slid his hand down to my chin, lifting it up with his thumb and forefinger forcing me to stare more deeply into his eyes. I closed my eyes in attempts to hold back the liquid glazing over my eyes, breathing heavily. Suddenly I felt a pair of soft lips on my forehead as well as the warmth of his breath. "Please don't cry, I just want to help you."

"I'm not crying. I don't want you to help me. I don't deserve this." I responded looking down, my eyes still closed and his hand moving back up to caress my cheek. He moved his other hand up to my other cheek using them to push my head up again so he could look me in the eyes, slightly squishing them.

"y/n. Please don't say that. I 'm sorry I'm being so persistent. Let's go back and play with Jimin; like he asked." He smiled at me, awaiting my response. I opened my eyes and smile back, a small tear running down my cheek. He used his thumb to wipe it away before wrapping his arms around my neck and pulling me into his bear-like embrace, continuing to apologise repeatedly. Honestly, I really appreciated what he was doing it was just that a huge part of me felt really guilty for all of the love and kindness he's shown me. I don't think I had ever received this scale of affection from even my own family. I never had anyone who understood me or showed this much concern for me and to receive from someone I didn't even know existed a week ago baffled yet amazed me. 

We both stood up and he motioned for me to walk ahead of him. I put my hand on the handle of the door and sighed heavily. He placed his hand on my lower back 

"Are you okay, y/n?" He said a hint of concern engulfing his tone. I nodded and proceeded to make my way downstairs, Taehyung following close by me, his hand gradually wrapping more and more around my waist. We made our way to the living room in which Jimin and Jungkook were sat on the floor playing Overwatch. Taehyung and I collapsed onto the sofa behind them, dropping his head onto my shoulder whilst i leaned my head against his. 

"y/n, do you want to play?" Jungkook asked softly, handing me the controller, with a warm smile plastered across his face. I nodded, taking it from him. Around half an hour had past before Hoseok strolled in, stopping in his tracks upon seeing Taehyung asleep, his head in my lap and my free hand running through his hair.

"Oh, um y/n, can you help me now?" he widened his eyes, reminding me of what he said earlier.

"yeah... sure..." I looked down at Taehyung, who was soundly and comfortably asleep in my lap then back at Hoseok as a way of asking for help. He playfully rolled his eyes and and chuckled before helping me escape from the heavy boulder that was Taehyung, trapping me in my seat. I followed him upstairs to my room and sat down.

"Girl, you have to tell me what's going on," He breathed waiting for an explanation. I shrugged my shoulders and he sighed. "So you clearly like him but where does that leave Yoongi and Jungkook?"

"What do you mean?"

"Don't start that, I know you went out with Jungkook and you fell asleep in his jacket. And let's not forget what happened this morning with Yoongi"

"Ugh don't remind me. But no I don't like Jungkook like that, he's just a really kindhearted boy. And Yoongi, I mean he seems nice but I don't like him either"

"SO YOU DO LIKE TAEHYUNG" he shouted. "You two have been awfully close today, are you already a thing? What happened earlier?" 

"Keep it down oh my god. Nothing happened earlier. And no i don't like him either. I can't"

"Why not?" he sounded upset and hurt but I felt I trusted him enough to tell him.

"I'm leaving in two days, I don't want to get caught up in feeling I can't control"

"I get that. I'm sorry. Now go back to your boyfriend." Hoseok teased.

"HOSEOK I SWEAR TO G-" He laughed, hurrying out of the room before I began to chase after him. I followed him down the stairs into the living room, both of us still laughing obnoxiously loudly. The remaining six boy were already sat there, relaxing, until they suddenly stopped to look at the two of us, confused. Taehyung suddenly sat up rubbing his eyes. 

"Why are you laughing so much, some people are trying to sleep." His deep, raspy voice unleashed the monstrous butterflies within my stomach, my heart erupting from my chest. I stayed silent. Hoseok noticed the redness flooding my cheeks and began to apologise in an excessive manner in order to draw all of the attention upon himself. I watched him, trying to cool down my burning cheeks and noticed Jungkook still watching me, a grin smothering his face.
