Chapter 28

A/N Hello! Loverofpearls here! I just want to say that I am shocked and still in disbelief that Sugar has gotten so much love! I never expected this book to even get more than a thousand reads, but now its over 55k views and I am speechless. When I saw the rankings this book has and saw #1 for taekook, I sat and stared at my phone for ten minutes before I screamed my head off. XD Even though I am lacking in writing skills, many people are being so supportive that it just warms my heart so much! Once again I'd like to thank each and every single one of you amazing readers! 

Anyways, sorry for the very long introduction and thank you again for being so supportive!

Taehyung

"Ah! Oh my, ah....that hurts..."

Taehyung blinked away the tears that began to form in his eyes as he reached for the fifth band-aid that day and placed it over the small cut on his left index finger after rinsing it with water. He never realized that decorating a "cake" would be this difficult. 

"Cake"

Taehyung stared at the irregular lump of what could sorta pass for a cake on the kitchen counter. It was nearing 6 pm when Taehyung had  gotten something that barely resembled a cake after about three tries before giving up and deciding to just start decorating. Now, an hour and a half later, Taehyung had cuts all over his hands as he tried to use the kitchen knife to hand cut out all the fondant details. 

He forgot to get any cutters when he went binge shopping for baking supplies. 

Overall, the lump of sugary bread that he had started with was looking fairly good. Even if Taehyung had no confidence in his baking skills, his decorating skills were definitely up there at the top. So thankfully, he had managed to save the utter disaster of a cake by leveling it off, dolloping fresh whipped cream and smoothing all the edges, and finally garnishing it with fresh fruit. At the moment, he was struggling to cut out the fondant letters/shapes that he wanted to put on the cake.

"JK <3 TAE"

He was just finishing the red heart in the center when there was a loud clunk at the door and Taehyung immediately startled, gripping the kitchen knife in fear. 

"Ow...Frick, that hurt."

Taehyung ignored the fact that the voice sounded oddly familiar and put down the kitchen knife quietly, reaching for the broomstick instead. Whoever this intruder was, he wasn't going to go down without a fight. 

Crouching low and silently slithering his way towards the living room, Taehyung held his breath as a series of more profane language and grumbles could be heard. 

Just as he reached the edge of the sofa and the entrance was just a few more steps away, Taehyung could hear the loud steps of someone coming closer, quietly, as if they were trying to make no sound. 

Then, all chaos broke loose. 

"AH!! WHO ARE YOU!! GO AWAY!!!" Taehyung screamed, clenching his eyes closed as he blindly swung the broomstick, hitting the stranger more times than missing.

"What the fricK!?!?!? TAE!!! What are you- BABY!!!"

Taehyung froze as whoever this stranger was grasped at his wrists with firm arms. Angrily, Taehyung opened his eyes to give this stranger a piece of his mind when-

"J-Jungkook??"

Jungkook looked positively wrecked. His usually fluffy and well-kept or slick and swept back hair was in a disarray as well as the state of his wrinkled clothes. 

"What the heck was that, Tae???" the younger sighed, loosening his tight grip around Taehyung's wrists.

"W-What? Why are you here?" Taehyung blurted out in surprise. Did Jungkook forget something at the dorm? Was that was he stopped by way before he was supposed to leave work?
