Taekook Oneshots

From Now On

I saw the sun begin to dim
And felt that winter wind
Blow cold

"Tae, please-"
"Don't talk to me," I snap, leaving the house. "If you really cared, you'd accept it straight away, before I tried to end my own fucking life. But no. It had to take me drowning in my own blood for you to see sense. I'm moving out."

"We're your parents, you can't just leave-"
"Yes I can," I return bravely, holding my head up high. "You were going to cast me out anyway. What difference does it make?"

A man learns who is there for him
When the glitter fades and the walls won't hold

"Taehyung, baby, let's go," I hear my boyfriend murmur from behind me, "they aren't worth the struggle." I turn to look at him, see the love and the pain in his beautiful eyes. "Please, I can't bear to see you like this. They don't deserve to talk to you, after everything that happened."

"Stop talking, you freak! It's your fault he did that-"

I squeeze Jungkook's hand, walking away before I can listen to any more of their lies.

Cause from then, rubble
What remains
Can only be what's true

"F-Fuck, Tae," he groans, tilting his head back, hands knotting into my hair, and I smirk for a moment at his reaction. This is where I belong, with the love of my life, whether it's in his arms or on my knees in front of him.

He was the one to find me, half conscious in the bathroom, surrounded by a river of my blood, deep cuts on my arms flowing out and adding to the mess on the floor. He screamed, I can still remember the sound of it, rushing over to stop the flow and call for help. If it wasn't for him, I would be dead now.

If all was lost
Is more I gain
Cause it led me back
To you

When I opened my eyes, in a hospital bed, he was there, head bowed and face stained with tears. He was numb, dark circles under his eyes and small scratches on his palms from digging his nails in out of stress. All I had to do was whisper his name, and the light in his eyes returned in moments. He was almost literally over the moon at the sound of my voice, weak as it was.

And that's when I realised how big of a mistake it was to give up on life. No matter what my parents said, they couldn't stop me from being the way I was. And I didn't want to be ashamed of a relationship that made me happy.

It didn't seem right.

From now on
These eyes will not be blinded by the light

"I love you," I whisper into his neck, merely an hour later, and he smiles, hand coming to rest gently on the back of my neck.
"I love you too. I'm proud of you, you know that right? I know how hard it is to let your parents go like that. But they weren't treating you right. It's all up from here. I promise."

"I know, I trust you."

From now on
What's waited till tomorrow starts tonight
Tonight

My eyes widen, filling with tears, as Jungkook suddenly drops to one knee on the pavement in front of me, in public, maybe a week after the incident with my parents. "Kookie, are you about to-"

He smiles a little, nervously, pulling a small velvet box out of his pocket. "Oh my god, Kookie, oh my-"

Let this promise in me start
Like an anthem in my heart
