Don't Leave Me

Chapter 26*

This part mentions an almost r*pe so if you are triggered by that stop at 'Jungkook holds my hands and nods to have me continue' and skip to 'I felt tears streaming down my face again'

Taehyung P.O.V.

"She told me you killed someone...." Jungkook says, looking away

I gasp

I can't believe my mother would tell Jungkook about that. I didn't kill anyone, it wasn't my fault. He doesn't believe her right? He wouldn't... he knows me better than that. Please....

I can feel myself start to panic

"Tae?"

"Tae, you need to calm down"

"Baby?"

"Tae-baby, are you okay?"

I her the concerned voices but I can't focus on them

"Taehyungie, I need you to listen to my voice"

Frowning I try to listen to them

"I need you to breath... in and out"

I feel a hand grasp my own

"In... and out"

The voice continues to guide my breathing, and I slowly calm down

I realize it's Jungkook holding my hand and Jimin sitting in front of me

After glancing around I realize I'm on the floor

"Wh-wha?" I ask looking around

"You started panicking Tae Tae, and you collapsed" Jimin says, putting his hand against my forehead

I nod slowly, sitting up

Jin walks over and hands me a glass of water

"How are you feeling Tae?" He asks, squatting next to Jimin

"I-I'm alright" I say looking at him

"I think you and Jungkook need to talk" Namjoon says, coming to stand behind Jin

I look up at him and nod slightly

One by one they leave the room, making sure I'm alright before doing so

"Tae? Baby? Please look at me" Jungkook says, running his hand along my cheek

I finally turn my head to look at him, tears in my eyes

His expression turns to sadness, before hugging me

"Baby, why are you crying?"

"I-I just don't want you to hate me... or leave me" I say, sobbing into his shoulder

"Why would I leave you baby?" He asks, rubbing the tears off my cheeks

I look down "What she said was partially true"

"What do you mean?" Jungkook asks hesitantly

Rubbing my eyes I look up at him again

"I am the cause of somebody's death, but it wasn't my fault"

Jungkook holds my hands and nods to have me continue

"A few years ago, my mom sent this guy to the club... she knew by then that I was working as a dancer. I can choose to go off the stage as I please to give lap dances. I don't do it that often unless I think the person's cute... but that's besides the point. She sent one of Baekhyun's homophobic friends to the club that night. I had no idea who he was, but he came to see me dance. I thought he was cute so I decided to give him a lap dance, he kept touching me inappropriately so I cut the dance short. He wasn't happy about that but he didn't make a scene."
