Imaginary - Vkook/Taekook ✔️

Chapter 3

Jungkook's POV

"See! I- shit! t-told you!" I pointed at the bunny cage that sat in my room, a blue bunny roaming around in the cage. "He's s-still alive!"

"You two look similar." Taehyung laughed, putting his finger in between the bars to bet the bunny's head.

I opened the cage and took my bunny out, holding him like a baby that was the size of my hand. Taehyung kept his eyes on him, petting his white tummy. I felt like I was protected again, just by him being near me. I just don't understand why no one else can see him. Maybe they're just being mean.

"So. . . You're graduating this year?" He asked.

"Yeah! It's- fuck! been a l-long year this- dogs! year."

He nodded, he used to talk so much back then. I wonder if something is on his mind or if something is bothering him. He took my bunny from my hands and held him close to his face. They looked each other in the eyes.

"Kookie is so old now." He said.

"I k-know."

"He's still vibrant though." He pet his head.

I smiled brightly, I love seeing Taehyung with animals. It makes me so happy.

The door opened to my bedroom, my mother standing by the frame. I placed Kookie back in his cage and faced my mother, repeatedly hitting my chest while random words spilled out.

"Are you talking to someone on the phone?" She asked.

"No! Look- fuck! wh-who's back!" I pointed at Taehyung who was laying on the bed, one leg in a triangular shape whole the other was flat.

"Honey there's no one there, it's just your bed." She said.

I scrunched my eyebrows, is she being serious? How can she not see Taehyung? "He's right- fuck! there, mom! He's l-laying on my- cunt! bed!" I put my hand on Taehyung's leg, while he scrolled through his phone.

"Baby, there's no one there." She chuckled slightly and walking to me, putting her hand on my forehead. I took her hand away and pouted.

"Eomma! Taehyung-ssi is- coat! right here!!" I bounced up and down a little, pointing at Taehyung.

She looked right where Taehyung was sitting, his face looking like a cute puppy. They were staring each other right in the eyes. My mom had to be joking around!

"Ah! Taehyung! You're back?" She asked.

"Of course I'm back." He flicked non existent dust from his fingers, looking uninterested.

She nodded in understanding and looked at me, patting my head. "You should get ready for school tomorrow. It's your last day." And she walked out.

I looked at Taehyung, confused. "Why d-did you- keys! act like that?"

"Act like what?"

"Unint-terest-ted."

"I didn't mean to. I guess it's just hard for me to be back all of a sudden. I mean both of us are older now. . ." His fingers played with the bottom of his shirt.

I sat next to him, taking his hand. He looked into my eyes, my neck jerking as I blinked rapidly. He placed his hands on the back of my neck, pressing my head on his neck. I felt him sigh deeply, I could tell something was off. I moved away from his neck and looked into his eyes, they were glossed over and red. I wrapped my arms around his neck and hugged him tightly while burying my face into his neck once again. I felt his arms wrap around my waist, pulling me close to him. "I'm sorry I left you, I really couldn't help it. . ." His voice was shaky, but I didn't respond. I kept hugging him tightly. As I placed my head on his shoulder and looked at the wall, colorful butterflies filled the room. All sorts of different colors. Bright purple and blue ones started to form a rose on the wall, the purple ones outlining the blue. I reached one of my arms out to let one land on my finger, and a bright yellow one landed on my pointer finger.

"Taehyungah, l-look." I whispered. Taehyung turned around and looked at my finger with the butterfly on it. He reached his hand out as well, a bright blue one landing on his hand. We looked at each other, our eyes wide. "What- cunt! d-does this- bunnies! mean?"

"I don't know." His eyes scanned the blue and purple butterflies on the wall, the light illuminating his tanned face. I don't know why, but I couldn't stop looking at him. He just looked so pretty with the lights.
