Time l Taekook

The tower, the tower where we had our first kiss, the tower where our love was born, that's where he'll be, that's where I'll find him. After half an hour driving I finally got there, I shut down the engine and raced out of my car and entered the tower. I went up to the top and finally, I saw him there, sitting on the edge of the window, he hadn't seen me yet, I coughed to let him know I was here, he immediately turned around, his eyes were red from crying but it seemed like he hadn't slept in days, he looked weak, he was pale, he looked sick, it broke my heart to see him like this but what was worst was the fear in his eyes when I started to walk towards him.

"No" his voice was trembling. "Stay there, don't come near me"

"Tae it's okay, I'm not here to hurt you"

"No, stay back, stay back or I jump right away" that made me stop right away.

"Tae why do you even want to jump at all??" Dumb question I know but I wanted him to really explain to me.

"There is nothing left for me here, I don't have an interest in living, why would I want to live with someone who mocked me, rejected me, played with my feelings and doesn't even care about how I end up"

"Tae I do care about you, that's why I'm here and I do love you"

"God stop lying!! I heard you, I heard you and Jin talking, okay!" tears started to run down his cheeks, I wanted to take him in my arms and wipe those tears away, I wanted to explain to him, tell him how much I loved him and what he meant to me but I was afraid he would jump if I came near him.

"Tae please, I only said that to Jin because I didn't want him to know I still loved you"

"Why not?"

"I thought he would tell you and you would leave me, I had finally won your friendship again I didn't want to lose it again." His head dropped down, I thought he was maybe finally understanding so I walked up to him and softly patted his head not wanting to frighten him. He didn't do anything.

"Tae, look at me" slowly I lifted his chin, there wasn't any fear in his eyes anymore but they still didn't sparkle like they used to do. "I love you, I always have and I will do anything to prove it to you"

"I-I love you too Kookie, please forgive me" he got up and was about to jump but I was faster than him and grabbed him by the waist trying to pull him back.

"Taehyung don't I'm begging you" he was still trying to wriggle out of my grip but nothing was going to make me let go. "You just confessed to me, please let me try and fix what I broke" he stopped moving.

"Please Tae, give me a chance to prove to you how much I love you, please, I won't ever hurt you again, I will protect you from everything, I won't let anything happen to you, I promise you" finally he turned around and I grabbed him, moving away from the window. When I saw we were both safe I hugged him tightly and he finally hugged me back, I was never letting him go. We both fell on the floor never breaking our embrace, we were holding on so tight our knuckles were turning white, we were both afraid that if we let go the other one would disappear, after everything we had been through we finally had found each other again.

"Jungkook, the other day, when you were outside my door and you told me you loved me do you remember?" he was still in my arms and I felt him shiver as he asked me.

"Yes, what about it?" I kissed his forehead encouraging him to continue.

"Why did you wait so long before telling me you loved me?"

"I always knew I felt something for you Tae, I just needed time to figure out it was love." Now I was sitting down, leaning against the wall, holding Tae in my arms, I lifted him up, so his head rested on my collar and slowly we drifted to sleep.

No one's P.O.V

As Jungkook woke up he felt something heavy resting on his chest, he looked down and saw the one person he loved and smiled lightly, remembering yesterday's events, he had finally convinced Taehyung to give him a second chance and he wasn't going to waste it. He slowly shook Tae to try and wake him up, when that didn't work and started to squish the other's cheek but was scared when he felt how cold they were. He started to touch his arms and shoulders, his entire body was cold.

"Tae? Taehyung??" no answer, he shook him and slapped him softly then harder. He wasn't moving.

"Tae, Tae wake up! WAKE UP! PLEASE TAE!!" he screamed and screamed but nothing happened, slowly he took his arm and felt for a pulse. Tears ran down his face as he put down his lover's arm, scrunched up in one of Taehyung's hand was a piece of paper. Carefully Jungkook unrolled the paper, the words were barely legible.

You didn't keep your promise, but I forgive you,

Don't stop fighting, please, do it for me hyung,

I love you my bunny,

Your TaeTae.

Jungkook's P.O.V

At that moment I understood, it all made sense now, Tae really was sick, during those days alone had catch a cold or something and I was too dumb to notice it and do something. And now my lover had died in my arms. He was right, I didn't keep my promise. I leaned and kissed his forehead.

"I will keep fighting for you Tae and I won't ever stop loving you, I promise you" after I final goodbye I called my hyungs and the police as I wrapped Tae in a final embrace.
