Taemin x Reader- Flame of Love

Burning brightly crimson, flame of love
Fragments of love
Soar above once again like fire sparks
Melting your heart
It will be kept aflame until then, flame of love

Your relationship with Taemin was like any other relationship. You had your ups and downs, whether it be one towered over the other. You both worked it out and eventually forgave each other for what had happened. Your fights weren't frequent, nor were they long either. It only happened when something super dramatic had happened. With this last fight, Taemin had definitely crossed the line.

"Taemin what the hell!?"

Your room was in ruins. Your bed sheets were tossed all over your bed, clothes scattered across the floor, drawers opened, and right in the middle was Taemin, the culprit of the whole catastrophe. You walked into the room, already fuming from what your eyes had seen. You only then decided that he crossed the line when you found the glass bird that your mother had given you broken. You picked up the broken shards, eyes brimming with tears.

"Why'd you go through my shit? And above it all, you broke my prized possession. What the fuck is wrong with you."

"(Y/N), I just needed to get something."

"Bullshit you did. Why is my room like this if you just wanted something."

"I couldn't find it."

"And what was this thing that you couldn't find?"

He described the object, and you looked on your nightstand. You shoved past him and grabbed the object, turning around and glaring at him.

"It was right here in plain sight. Now tell the fucking truth, Taemin."

He looked at you for a long time, then finally spoke, "I was looking for signs that you were cheating on me. I was looking through your clothes and one of your jackets hit the shelf, causing the bird to fall just as you walked into the door."

"You actually believe that I would cheat on you." Taemin went to spoke, but you held your hand up, "Don't speak another word to me. Get out of my house. You believe that I would cheat on you after three years of dating you, and then you go and break something my mother gave me. You disgust me at this point. Pack your shit and leave. Now."

Without a word, he packs his things and leaves the house. When you slam the door shut, he looks back and his shoulders slump down. He messed up big time and he knew there was nothing he could do to make up for it. For weeks he slept at Minho's house, endlessly laying in his bed that his friend had gave him, not eating and not moving. At times Minho would walk in and give him water, tell him he needed to shower and at least get him to eat a little bit of food.

The days passed by with no sign of you two ever getting back together. After a long time, Minho finally got Taemin to get out of the house and see the light of day. The sunlight burned his eyes, but he soon got over it and continued on his walk. Heading to the mall was just one of the things Minho had wanted to do and forced Taemin to go along with.

They entered the mall, and Taemin's eyes immediately landed on your figure. He hadn't seen you in so long, and looking at you hurt him a bit. He grew the courage to go and talk to you, only to be let down when he saw you with another guy. You both held hands and smiled, you kissing the boys cheek and giggling. You looked at the door and made eye contact with Taemin.

Time seemed to slow down. Taemin watched as your smile faded and you frowned at him. You turned away and started walking away with your new boyfriend. Taemin's eyes filled with tears and he backed away a little bit. He didn't want to believe it was true, but he also could not deny what he had just seen.

He turned away and walked out of the malls doors. He'd continue to stay at Minho's house, not coming out of his room, continuing not to eat. He wanted nothing more than to forget you and what had happened. He wanted to forget his mistakes. He wanted to forget that you had moved on and he could never have you back again. But he knew that you were someone that he could never forget. His heart didn't want to, and everything reminded him of you. His pain would remain with him endlessly, never would he be able to repay his mistake.

No matter how brightly the stars shine
I'm reminded of you and I am only pained
If all things beautiful were to disappear
Would I be able to forget?
========================
I've had this in the drafts for so long lmao I'm sorry for holding back on it for so long
