28 Days | Jungkook ✔

Trapped

My eyes were shut closed but I was sifting in and out of reality...

I heard a loud, perky voice a few feet away from me.

"Aw, they look so cute together!"

Was that Mom? Is she really saying that or is this a dream...

I felt someone's arm around me. Is that my brother, Hyuk?

I open my right eye and peek over my shoulder. I'm surprised to find that it's... Taehyung.

I'm too tired to even say anything so I try to get out of his grasp. Big mistake. Taehyung then tightens his leg around me.

I whisper, "Taehyung, please get off."

    "No, Jimin-ah... One more minute..."

You think I'm Jimin? You wish.

    "I'M NOT JIMIN!" I push him off me. Startled, he falls off the bed. Thump.

"Ugh, sorry I just get grumpy in the morning..." I mumble.

As I begin to help Taehyung off the floor, I'm more surprised by the sight in front of me. Right at my door, are my parents holding their cellphones, directed towards us.

"What are you doing?" I'm completely startled.

My mom lowers her cellphone and grins. "Nothing." She then glances at her screen and giggles.

I'm horrified. "Were you guys taking pictures of me and Taehyung, sleeping?"

My parents yell at the same time. "No!" But from the corner of my eye, I see my mom's screen with a photo of me and Taehyung on the bed.

I groan. "Why are you guys so embarrassing? This is an invasion of privacy!"

My mom speaks out. "Sorry, we just thought this was a one in a life time chance."

"Huh?" I'm bewildered.

My dad clarifies. "Sure we were a bit upset with you bringing a boy home without our permission, but we realized we were a bit harsh."

I raise my eyebrow. "Okay..."

"And we realized that this was the first time that you ever actually brought a boy home! And secretly! So obviously he must mean a lot to you." My mom wiggles her eyebrow.

I rub my temples. "Yeah, sure he means a lot to me but that doesn't mean I only see him romantically-"

My mom interrupts. "Taehyung is tall and gorgeous, and although he may be sickly pale and homeless, we've accepted his flaws! We give you permission for him to court you."

"Mom, you do realize that he did cheat on me, right?" I point at him.

My parents shrugged. "We've accepted his flaws and so should you."

I look at Taehyung and apologetically grimace. Taehyung grins, clearly immune to my parents' weirdness.

Surprisingly, he finally speaks out. "Y/n is a gorgeous girl, both the inside and out. But my heart is taken by a different man."

My parents were quiet.

"I was heartbroken for a long time. And I never thought I'd be able to like someone ever again... until Y/n came into the picture."

My parents coo.

"But then I met again the man who broke my heart.. it wasn't his fault, though. And I thought I'd be able to have a chance again, but he was forced to move away," Taehyung sighs.
