Smiling For You/ yoonmin ff

"Are you sure?"

"So sure."

"But, our families. Your brother. His parents!"

"Life's too short. We need to save ourselves and I'm gonna make sure you're free. Free from all the shit you never deserved. From the stuff that should never have happened to you. From your house. From that fucking lawn that we both know went to shit. From the memory of when everything was perfect. From your mother."

"Don't talk about her. Please."

"I won't. That'll be the last of it. But I will free you. And plus, I already arranged for us to stay at an apartment."

"Ok, fine. We need to get Kookie."

He just kept running.

Running. Running. Sobbing all the way.

Followed closely by the boy who couldn't let the bunny go.

"Please! Please wait! I'm. So. Fucking. Tired." Tae said, panting more with each word that managed to escape his lips.

Sadly, those words were not heard as they were each no louder than a whisper.

So the boy with the brown hair didn't stop. No. He just kept running and running.

RRRRRING! RRRRRING!

He stopped.

Oh thank fuck, was all Tae thought, working hard to catch his breath.

He picked up his phone and answered.

"Mmm-- yeah?"

Taehyung was almost close enough to hear the mumbling that came from the phone practically glued on to the bunny's ear. But Tae was not close enough

"I'm, uh, I'm somewhere near there, yeah. Is that the place? Is that where we're gonna stay?"

"——————"

"Ok ok ok. That sounds, uh, fine, I guess. It's walking distance from where I am right now. At leas--"

He was interrupted.

"No. I'll walk. Don't pick me up in that trashy car."

The call seemed to end abruptly because the brunette said 'hello?' once and then once more and quickly put the phone back into his pocket.

Taehyung saw as the boy did not seem to want to start running again. He sighed in relief. That is, until he noticed the brown haired boy turn to step into a building. A large, large, laaaaarge building. Much bigger than the apartment building where Tae lives in with his brother. Nonetheless, the cherry head continued to follow.

The boy's cheeks were still puffy from all the crying, but it seemed to have gotten better during the time it took to walk to the pretty building from the park. Taehyung took notice of this fact.

'Goddamn it. Stairs.'

Taehyung saw as the bunny made his way to the staircase and he internally punched himself for following this boy. Getting so much unwanted exercise.

Finally at the last step after three floors, a panting Taehyung was almost to the point of crawling.

But the obviously more fit boy kept walking, well, more like speed-walking. Something Tae did not agree with.

Knock.
Knock.
Knock.

"Open up guys!" the bunny shouted.

"Coming Kookie!" said a familiar voice.

Lost in thought, Taehyung forgot to introduce himself to the brunette and let him escape into the room as the door opened and shut too quickly for the red head to process fast enough.

So, of course, like anybody would do, Taehyung started to bang on the door. He had no idea what his plan was or why he was knocking so aggressively, but only God could remove his shaking hand now.

Or maybe, a very cute bunny with a very concerned look on his face.
