Heartbeat (ON HOLD)

Just Admit It

Taehyung's POV
Not even a day and I was going nuts. Is she okay? Is she still alive? Is she hurt? Why did she leave? Why did she.... leave..... me... "Your majesty. Are you okay? You've been a bit off lately." A guard said. Lately? "H-How long ago did she leave?" I asked not looking at him. "About a month. Why?" He returned. I dropped the glass I had in my hand. A month?! Didn't she just... "What? I.... didn't she just..." I trail. "Sir..." He trails. "Did.... do you perhaps.... have feelings for her?" He asked carefully. Any other day or blood I would've yelled. But I didn't, I just scoffed and went to my room. Suddenly my phone began to ring. I answer. "Yes?" I asked. "Taehyung. Is it true? Did you let her go?" The voice of Namjoon asked. "I... did." I respond. "How can you protect her?" He asked. "I don't know." I whispered. "What if she's in danger and you can't save her?" He continues. I grit my teeth and clench my fist. "I. Don't. Know." I said slowly. "Taehyung... what if she's dead?" He asked. "I DON'T KNOW OKAY!? I DON'T KNOW AND I'M TRYING NOT TO THINK ABOUT THE POSSIBILITIES OF HER BEING IN DANGER! CAUSE EVERY TIME I DO IT MAKES ME SICK! OKAY?! I! DON'T! KNOW!" I yell into the phone. I hear a chuckle. "What's so funny?" I asked irritated. "Maybe you should just admit you have feelings for her Taehyung." He says and hangs up. Admit? There's nothing to admit. I roll my eyes and collapse onto my bed. I hope you're okay. It's driving me nuts knowing I can't protect you.

Jungkook's POV
I had sent Marisol on an errand. When she came back she brought a little surprise. "(Yn)?" I asked quietly. I look and see her form, very thin, badly beaten, bruised and just over all.... not in good condition. "What in the..." I whispered. "He-hello." She said. Not long after her eyes roll to the back of her head and she collapses. Marisol grabs her before she hits the ground, but is struggling to keep her up. I scoop up the girl, and see the crest still on her neck. He didn't want anyone else to drink her blood. So he had her keep it. I take the girl to Marisol's room, and place her on the bed. I turn around and see Marisol. I give her a neutral face, I jerk my to the side to signal her to follow me. We get to my room and I turn back to her. "I-I'm sorry... I don't know what else to do, she was just standing there against the wall in an alley I—" She starts rambling. I hold my hand up and she's instantly becomes silent. She looks down at her shoes. "Look at me." I commanded. She slowly raises her head to look at me. I step closer to her, I towered over her quite a bit. I look down at her. She looks down again. I budget her chin up to look at me. "I'm sorry." She whispers again. Her eyes darting about the room. "Look at me." I command again. She looks at me in the eyes, her hands shaking, and her lips trembling. She thinks I'm mad at her. She thinks she's in trouble. She thinks she's going to get punished. "Don't be so terrified." I state. She continues to shake and says nothing. I move my face down closer to hers and her heart starts pounding. "You're not in trouble, Marisol. You did a good thing today. Relax." I whisper and back away from her. My words seem to click, and her whole body relaxes. She looks up at me. "Y-You're r-really not mad, S-Sir Jeon?" She stutters. I smirk. "Why would I be?" I asked. "... I... couldn't bring home any of the things you had asked of me... she was.... I didn't.... and I couldn't...." She stammered. It was only then that I realized she didn't have any of the things I asked for. I shrugged. "Then we'll go and get them." I said and started walking away. I had locked the door to Marisol's room, so no one could get in. "W-We?" She stuttered and followed behind me as I grabbed a coat. I nod with a smirk. "Oh, put this on." I said and tossed her a choker (At the top). "Y-you're crest... but you said..." She trails. I walk up to her. "You earned it, sweetheart." I say with a wink. Her face turns red, causing my smirk to grow. "Th-Thank you..." She whispers. "Come. We have to get a few things." I said and continued to walk. We get out of the castle. "Will she be okay?" She asked. I glance over my shoulder at her. "I hope so. For the sake of Taehyung's sanity." I responded quietly. "For his sanity?" She asked. I smirked. "Poor doofus can't see he has feelings for her. According to Namjoon he's going nuts." I responded with a laugh. I hear giggling which causes me to stop in my tracks. I feel someone bump into my back and the giggling stops. I turn around and see Marisol staring at me with wide eyes. "S-Sorry." She whispers. "Were you... giggling?" I asked. "U-um..." She stutters. "Well.. y-you were laughing and... laughter is contagious...." She stammered. I laughed again and she just froze, her face red from embarrassment. "You have a cute giggle." I say before turning around and walking again. "I— wait what?" She squeaks And follows close behind me. "I said you have a cute giggle." I said again with a smirk. "I heard you I just..." She trailed I stop and turn to her with a smirks I bend down to her level. "You just what... Princess?" I said, my smirk growing as her face turned a tint of pink from being flustered. "Didn't expect... you saying something like that... or uh.... yeah..." she mutters. I smirk more. "Get used to it, cause the more I hear it. The more I'll say it... Princess." I mutter with a wink, before continuing to walk. I'll admit it once Taehyung does. But for now, I'll stick with how it is currently.
