You set Jungkook down after a few moments, grabbing Taehyung's hand and leading him to your bathroom. 

"We gotta give you a bath, okay babe? You'll feel so much better if you're clean, trust me."

You turned on the bath water, only putting in a few sprinkles of bath salts because his nose was so sensitive. You turned to see that he had already stripped, a blush coating your cheeks at his nudity. You helped him into the bath, reaching for the shampoo when his hand grasped your wrist.

"Wait, will you get in with me?"

You bit the inside of your cheek, blush only deepening, "Are you sure you're comfortable with that?"

He didn't answer, only nodded vigorously and tugged at your shirt. You let out a breathy laugh before stripping, climbing into the warm bath water and sitting across from him.

He made grabby hands at you, crossing his legs in the water before tugging you towards him. He lifted you, setting you in his lap and nuzzling his face into your neck. You grabbed the shampoo from behind him, squirting a generous amount into the palm of your hand. You rubbed it into his hair, getting some on your chest and shoulders as he was still laying with his head in your neck. You were careful to avoid his dog ears as you scrubbed with your nails, only touching them later gently and rubbing the shampoo into them, careful to keep soap out of the insides. You didn't want him to get an ear infection. You took a cup from the corner of the tub, telling him to tuck his ears flat onto his head before slowly pouring the warm water over his scalp. 

He whined slightly at the feeling of the water, prompting you to shush him and run your hands through his hair. You rinsed his hair two more times before all of the shampoo was out. You leaned back, giggling when his ears popped up and flung water towards you and the wall behind him.

You kissed his forehead, cupping his cheeks in your hands and cooing when he pushed his face further into your hands so that his cheeks were squished in your palms. He puckered his lips a few times, looking pouty from the way that his cheeks were squished. You leaned in, gently pulling his face towards you and capturing his lips in a sweet kiss. Taehyung slid his tongue into your mouth, but you'd long since gotten used to the forward way that dog hybrids like him kissed. You let him lead for a few moments, humming softly as you broke away.

"We should wash your tail. I noticed it was pretty battered. Does it hurt?"

"A little bit. She put it in her- well, you know. And she held it so tight, it really hurt." His whimpered admission filled you with disgust, not aimed towards him of course. You wanted nothing more than to track down the woman who had abused him so much and give her a piece of your mind.

"Baby, I'm so sorry. I'm so sorry that I couldn't find you sooner, that you got taken in the first place, it's all my f-"

He cut you off with another kiss, pushing your head back slightly and cupping the back of your neck with his hand.

"It's not your fault Y/N! I was the one who ran ahead, I should have stayed with you. I hid my bracelet in the pocket of the jeans I was wearing , but I put it back on after she left. I'm just glad I didn't lose it." He brandished his wrist, showing off his slightly dingy but still shiny silver ID tag. You smiled, kissing the back of his hand above his bracelet and reaching for the shampoo again. You took his tail gently in your hands, pulling it out of the water and lathering the exposed part with shampoo, scrubbing the part that was still underwater as best you could. You rinsed it by dunking it underwater again, rubbing all of the excess shampoo out until he was clean.

You washed his body as well, slowly sliding the soapy loofa over his body and using your cupped hands to rinse his body. When you were done, you stepped out, wrapping yourself in a towel before offering him a hand. He took it, pulling you into him with it once he had stepped out. You grabbed a towel, wrapping him up in it and gently ruffling his hair, rubbing his ears as well.

He leaned into your towel-clad hand, closing his eyes and hugging you. You pulled away slightly, sliding his towel in between yours and his chest and wrapping it around his waist. You made your way out of the bathroom, pulling him along to the closet. You each got dressed in one of Taehyung's shirts, he pulled on one that smelled strongly of you, it was one that you had worn when he was gone to keep yourself together. He always liked it when you wore his clothes because then they smelled like you.

You had all invited Yugyeom to stay with his brothers for the time being in a spare room. You and Taehyung had tucked Jungkook into bed, alongside Namjoon who was tucking Joy in. Joy and Jungkook had a spare room that they slept in together sometimes, wanting to have sleepovers instead of staying with their respective adults.

You grasped Taehyung's hand in yours as you left their room, walking down the hallway and shouting a quick, 'goodnight' through the house before you went inside. He collapsed on the bed, pulling you down to rest on top of him. You went with it, wrapping your legs around him and resting your head on his chest. You pecked his chin, lacing a hand in his hair and petting him to sleep. You drifted off in your lovers arms once again, the feeling nothing short of euphoria.
