FORBIDDEN DESIRE | Jungkook × Reader ✔

48. Harmed

"Auntie...she slapped me because I was crying from being scared..." his tears roll down his cheeks, gazing at Jungkook with his sorrow. I hate that woman so much.

"Where did this bad person hurt you?"

"Here..." he presses his finger on the back of his head, "And here..." he shows his shoulder and back.

"Sweetie..." he stops at his car and lets go of my hand to caress the boy's cheek wet with his tears. "I'm going to hug you a lot and heal your little hurtful spots. I promise I won't ever let anyone touch you again my little baby." he kisses his face with a gentle pressure of his lips.

"I love you Jungkook..." he gives him a peck and snuggles his head in the crook of his neck, making a smile grow on Jungkook's face as he stroke the baby's back. He opened the car and gestured me to enter in the back, to get by my brother's side as he joined the front, to get on his driver seat and start the vehicle.

"I missed you cuddle..." he fiddles with his fingers, his gaze down he leans to the side and rests his head on my arm. My heart pounded against my chest at this sudden softness and I couldn't hold back from taking his little hand into mine, to press my lips on the top of his head. "I missed you too my love."

After some short minutes on the road, we finally arrived at our house, I took Daehan in my arms and Jungkook grabbed his school bag to follow us and enter the building, walking up the stairs to reach the floor where my space is. I get inside of it without waiting and let Jungkook lock the door behind him while I'm taking my shoes then coat off and doing the same for my little brother who's holding me tight.

I head to the couch and sit down on it, landing the small body I'm embracing on my lap for him to rest his head on my chest and encircle my waist with his arms. It's rather quiet, no one really dares to say a word. I pass my fingers through Daehan's hair, combing them to soothe him as I know that hearing the sound of my heartbeat is something he likes and needs whenever he's feeling stressed or worried.

I drift my eyes away from his small and fragile frame to take a look at Jungkook who's staying at the side, our eyes met as he was already fixed on me to my unknown. A warm smile was given by his features and he came closer to me, sitting by my side.

"Do you want me to cook something for you?" he leans closer to me, resting his torso on my arm to stroke the back of my little brother with his hand. Daehan shook his head and closed his eyes. That's the first time I see him acting this way, he doesn't speak but just remain on me, his head on my chest to stay calm and maybe fall asleep in my arms.

Jungkook turned his head to look at me and whisper, "Are you hungry?"

"No, I'm okay." I smile at him, reassuring his worries as I noticed that he was concerned about us. He places one arm on the back of the sofa right behind my head and passes his fingers through my hair, leaning his head in to press his lips on my temple. "I love you."

I look at him in the eyes and tell the same words fondly. He smiled at my response and kissed my lips with tenderness.

From all this relief and more I cannot hold back the pressure leaving my body but causing some tears to form into my eyes. I look away to not face Jungkook but wipe the water rolling down my cheeks. Thank god Daehan has fallen asleep.

"Baby..." Jungkook cup my jawline to make me turn my head and look at him as my face must be ridiculously full of tears. "Why are you crying...?"

"I was so scared..." I snivel with my heartbeat torturing my chest but drop my gaze down as I cannot keep my eyes into Jungkook's one. His face expressing a lot of concern, he places his arm around my neck and pulls me closer to him for his lips to kiss my temple. "Don't cry, honey...Everything's alright now, he's here and we're all together..."
