I Need You

Two Became One

Taehyung

"Okay. Let's do this." She said.

We watched as everyone took their place, leaving an open space in the middle of the stage. The music began to play as I held her hand and walked her out, filling the gap. I could practically hear her heartbeat as she pulled close to me.

"You're alright. Ignore everyone. Focus on me. Dance with me like we were the only two in the room." I said loud enough for only her to hear.

She closed her eyes, took a deep breath and exhaled before opening them and locking eyes with me. At that moment, I fell into my own advice. Her and I became the only two on stage and the music took a hold of us both. I placed my fingers in her soft curls as she tilted her head back, her eyes closing. Reopening them, she continued to her visual hold on me as the song played.

Poison in our veins, but we don't even care. Candles dripping on your body, baby. This ain't truth or dare.

I gently spun her around and let the tips of my fingers dance along her arms and over her shoulders before wrapping both arms around her. One arm went across her chest, the other wrapped around her waist before dancing over her skin and leaving her form. She gave a small twirl before linking her left arm in my right one. Leaning forward a bit, she kicked herself into the air while leaning back against my back. Rolling across, her right arm linked with my left one to support her landing before she danced away, pulling me with her.

My body on your body baby, sticking like some glue.

I pulled her against me, my left arm around her at her lower back while her right arm was between us. She gave off a small body roll before I took her free hand in mine and brought them both up above our heads. We stared into one another's eyes as we danced, for the moment, forgetting we were even performing.

I'm gon' ride. I'm gon' ride. I'm gon' ride. I'm-I'm gon' ride. On you baby. On you lady. All night.

I stood at her side and watched as we both side stepped to the beat of the song. She pushed herself back from me, creating a small space between us before dancing to behind me. I stood so that my legs were apart before kneeling down, my hand going to my groin in a caressing motion. She crouched behind me, her hand snaking over my thigh and fitting its fingers between mine. She stood up and began to walk away, again, only for me to pull her back against me.

Bringing her body to mine, I began to back her up, step by step, her left arm around my shoulder and her hand in my hair. My right hand rested on the small of her back, while the left held her right hand next to our heads. As we backed up, we both gave repeated body rolls against each other. Our hands went out in an arch before wrapping around each other, both of hers at my neck, and mine at her waist.

She dipped back, rolling her body as I held her up before straightening herself out and turning to press her back against me before allowing me to run my hands the length of her torso and quickly grab her hands. She dropped, to the floor, one leg out to the side and curling behind my ankles while her hands wrapped around my hips and her head turning to the side.

I could feel every bit of her emotion as she danced about. This was no longer acting for her. This was her letting her emotions out. Just as it was for me.

We continued our dance, everything seeming more obvious to me. The fullness of her lips, the way her eyes sparkled when she danced. Her natural scent as it came through her perfume. Every contact my hands made with any bare skin on her brought tingles to my body. Like I someone was pushing small electric currents through my nerves. My skin burned where she touched, even through my clothes, and it sent my body into overdrive.

She jumped up, allowing me to lift her into the air, the skirt of her dress falling forward. One of her hands braced her on my shoulder while the other caressed my cheek. I looked up at her and into her eyes only to see them cloud over and grow darker. Her fingers touched my face so lightly as if a feather were touching it. I dropped her into my arms and the entire feel of the dance seemed to grow more passionate. Her moves became fierce but still soft, my body heated up and matched with her. Upon the song coming to a closing, I pulled her tight against me and pressed my lips to hers, caressing her cheek while the fingers of her hands locked behind my shoulders.

I felt like I was on fire. The room grew hotter and the stage lights seemed like they were right in front of us. What broke me from the moment was hearing a roaring applause. We pulled back from our kiss and looked at each other for a moment before coming back. I turned my head and looked out at the audience as people stood out of their seats, one by one. Cheering was heard along with whistles and hooting. The judges stood to their feet and gave massive smiled while they clapped.

I felt her turn to look at everyone behind us only for me to follow in suit. They were all standing, each pair holding hands. I saw the guys look at us and each gave their own form of approval. Min-Hee and I stood in the same pose and held our arms out before dipping into a bow. After straightening up, we followed everyone off stage and waited until we were outside of the stage area to celebrate.

"That was amazing, you two! Holy shit!" Jungkook said, running to us.

"I agree! That was incredible! You two put so much into that dance that I could feel the passion!" Namjoon said, smiling.

"That was better than I ever could have done." Jimin said, smiling and walking to us.

I turned to her to find her eyes watering. I got worried and cupped her face in my hands, searching for an answer.

"What's wrong?" I asked.

"I saw them. I saw Mom and dad." She said.

"I did too." Jungkook said. "They looked extremely happy.

"No. I saw my birth parents. They were behind us after the dance." She said. "They said they were proud of me and they love me." She said.

I pulled her close only for her to slip away and hug Jungkook.

"They also said they're happy I have a brother like you. And they think you should go easy on Tae. He's good for me, they said." She smiled and kissed her brother's cheek. "And they said they love you as if you were their son, too."

Jungkook gave a laugh and wiped his eyes before gently wiping her cheeks dry. "I love them too." Jungkook said, pulling her into a tight hug.
