"What the fuck, Jeon?" Taehyung stepped forward, his face contorted into an angered expression. "How could you leave me there for so long? Why didn't you come g-get me?" His voice wavered, obvious tears starting to trail down his cheeks. Taehyung felt his knees buckle, his whole body sinking to the ground.

Jungkook was quick to react, slinking beside the crying male. He wrapped his arms around the boy, whispering apologies over and over, wishing for one to explain how bad he felt. Baekhyun and Yoongi left the room, trying to give the two some much needed privacy while discussing this issue.

"Baby look- i'm so fucking sorry- i- im so so- so so sorry." He had that on repeat, worded differently, in hopes of gaining Taehyung's forgiveness. His simple, agreement to his apology. Even though in this case, "sorry" would never truly be enough. "We were so busy, baby please- "

Taehyung lifted his face to look at Jungkook clearly. Dried tears stained his reddened cheeks. He wiped them away with his sleeve, sniffling. His eyes glossed over, a shiny, glistened red tint that made him, in Jungkook's eyes, look absolutely stunning.

Jungkook's apologies never seemed to stop, so much that Taehyung started to get annoyed by them, he watched with an irritated attitude, constantly saying the words "baby" and "sorry" over and over. It almost drove him insane. Taehyung was out of energy from crying, he felt like falling asleep, like folding in on himself and just being, content.

He pressed his lips to the mafia leader's for a mere second, not because he was done being mad, he just wanted the boy to stop apologizing, "Just, shut up, okay?" He said, sounding almost drunk. He was drunk with exhaustion in reality of course.

Jungkook nodded slowly, his hands now resting on Taehyung's hips. He was such a sappy person when it came down to this boy. He would do anything for his forgiveness, even plead for hours.

"You are such a dick head, you know that?" Taehyung said bluntly, now crawling into Jungkook's lap, resting his head onto the boy's chest. Jungkook drew circles on the boy's back.

"I know. I hate myself for doing that to you."

"Mhmm, you should."

Jungkook scoffed, but nonetheless still held the boy as close as he could to himself, still loving the sloppy mess he was. He loved everything about Taehyung. He adored his features, his strange personality.

Yoongi and Baekhyun had walked back into the office now, eyes widening at the scene. "That was quick." Yoongi commented, pointing at the two, who were being clingy and touchy as usual.

"I'm sorry to break you guys up, but I have to talk with you, Taehyung. It's quite important." Baekhyun told him, and Taehyung pried himself from Jungkook's grip, walking outside of the office with Baekhyun.

"How do you think he will take it?" Jungkook asked Yoongi, who sprawled out on the office couch, already growing comfortable on the furniture.

"I don't know."

Baekhyun rested his hands gently on Taehyung's shoulders, patting them softly. He sighed deeply. "Taehyung, I want you to think back to when you were a kid, when you were with your family. Can you vividly remember?"

Taehyung shook his head, "I'm sorry, I can't.."

Baekhyun smiled, "It's okay. Just try for me. Remember those long scary nights, when Mom would scream at you, and Dad would throw a wine glass at you. You'd cry, you'd scream and run. You'd duck for cover under a blanket. Remember one day, your dad came home and held a gun to your head, threatening to pull the trigger. Does any of this ring a bell?"

Taehyung nodded gently, "Y-yes.."

Baekhyun dipped his head, "Do you.. do y-you know now? Do you know who stayed by your side whenever mom would scream- and when dad would hurt us?" Baekhyun had tears brewing in his eyes now.

The next thing he knew, he was on the floor, on his back, a heavy weight on top of him, hugging him tightly as he weeped into his shirt.

"B-baekie.. i l-love you so much.." Taehyung hiccuped, nuzzling his tear stained face into the boy's shirt, letting out ugly sobs as his face turned into an uncontrollable mess, more than it already was.


Baekhyun just rubbed his back gently, his own tears hindering his words, but not enough for Taehyung to be unclear of them.


"I l-love you too, Taehyung."
