Andrea's POV

It's almost 5am and Taehyung has to go to work, but he hasn't woken up yet. His warm body nuzzling close to me keeping me under his grip. I bring myself closer to him hugging his waist. His smell is refreshing..

After bursting out at him yesterday I feel light. I look up to him my eyes tracing over his features. How did I land up with him?

My body snuggles closer to him gaining a reaction from him as he holds me tighter. For the first time in a while my body doesn't hurt. Usually when I wake up my body aches, now that I think about it my eyes didn't give me any trouble this morning.

I let out a breath feeling relaxed, because I'm with him.

"Taehyung?" I lightly shake him. " Tae... wake up,"

He groans and yawns going down on the bed and laying his head on my chest like he used to. I smile and gently run my fingers on his hair.

"Honey?" His morning voice causes shivers down my spine and his fingers rubbing circles around my waist causes a tingling sensation. "You awake?"

"Mhm," I nod my head. "You should get ready for work,"

His motions stop and he lays his head on his palm facing me. "I don't want to go to work today." He smiles slyly causing me to blush and look away. "I want to stay with you," he whispers.

"Okay." I bite my lip smiling down at him.

We gaze into each other's eyes for minutes. How do I always manage to come back to him just by the way he looks at me? My heart still hurts a little bit but I know that I've forgiven him.

"The swelling seems to have gone down," his hand reaches up to my face lightly going over my cheek. "I'm not gonna do anything stupid like that again. I promise." He whispers. I nod my head, my heart slowing down.

He sits up on the bed and I join him. His fingers intertwines with mine. "Look.." he sighes rubbing his hair. "I'm an asshole but you are my gem. You tolerate me and my flaws and never once leave me alone. I'm stupid for doing what I did.. For beating you.. I took all my anger and frustration in me that day and completly.. I completely became my father. Please forgive me." He looks away but I hold his face in my hands so that he can look in my eyes.

"I've forgiven you," I tenderly smile. "Yes I have... It wasn't easy but I did forgive you,"

He kisses my hand laying his head on them. "I know it wasn't easy and I'm sorry. But what made you forgive me?"

"Because leaving you would mean I'd given up on everything we've been through. I forgave you because you said sorry. With all that time spent away, we had lots of things to think about and rectify. So when you said that one word, my heart was pieced back together. I was still mad, but I did feel that you meant it and that you thought about it. But also because for the most parts when it came to making a decision your brother as well as my mum gave me lots of advice,"

"No wonder," Taehyung nods his head. "Your mum was giving me lots of advice yesterday about how to manage my anger and how to channel my emotions," He just smiles and plays with my hands. "I wanna do something for you,"

"What?" I ask as he suddenly gets up and tells me to wait.

Taehyung's pov

Breakfast. I decided to make breakfast.

I decide to make something not too complex. Bread buns and avocado shake plus dip. Avocado because it has vitamin k and can heal and repair her skin instantly. I can even make raw beat avocado to apply on her face. I just want her to get better.

"Can I help?"

I turn around facing Namjoon who's slowly opening the fridge bringing out a bottle of water and strolls over to me. "Uhm..I'm just making breakfast,"

"That's why I offered, you're breakfast is dangerous," he says.

I lick my lips remembering the old times when he teased my cooking. "Okay, I'm making an avocado meal,"

"Great thinking," he says as he takes the four avocados on my tray and strolls over to the counter. He places the avocados on the counter and tries getting up, he successfully gets up keeping balance with the wheelchair behind him. He takes the knife and begins to unravish the avocados, taking over my job. I boil water and wait patiently for it to stop so that I can make the tea.

"Thanks," I mumble loud enough. "For.. bringing Andrea and I together again. I really appreciate it,"

He says nothing but nods his head. It's silent between the both of us until the cattle stops boiling. I quietly make some tea for all of us including Namjoon.

"Avocados help with healing and repairing. Mum told me that," he says. I take the bread packet and help him spread it over the bread adding some sugar. "She always told me that dad didn't mean to hit her. He hit her because he loved her. I didn't believe that shit and I promised myself that I wouldn't do that to my woman," I gulp feeling guilty. "As you're my brother I would like for you to also respect women, especially Andrea. Even if it gets rough between the two of you, you shouldn't lash out on her again," He finishes the avocados shake and brings me in for a hug. Which surprises me.

"You aren't like dad. You are caring, understanding, sweet, loving, adoring and so much more." He says.
