For You ( Kim Taehyung) ✔️

Chapter 45

Taehyung was sitting on the couch in the living room, browsing through random Japanese tv-shows on the television. It has been hours ever since Yura ran to her room and she didn't even come out at all. He looks at the clock hung near the kitchen door and sighs realizing it is very late.

2.00 a.m.

Yawning as he switched off the television, boredom striking as he couldnt find anything of his interest. Reaching for the small pillows on the couch, he adjusts his position so that he could sleep. Resting his head comfortably, he stares blankly at the off-white ceiling. He remembers his conversation with his mother after sending out the annulment. He clearly remembers how his mother, sounding outraged and speechless, asked if he really wants an annulment. It took his whole bravery to confess his real intention to his mother.

It was a mess, but it got him here.

He has no idea that Yura is actually working with the company, not until Soyeon pointed it out. She saw Yura's name in the list and thought the name sounded familiar. She used her connections to inquire about Yura and it turns around that it was really her. Taehyung did all he can to make sure that he was sent here for the project and he was lucky to get it.

He just wants to see Yura again.

Taehyung was about to doze to sleep when he suddenly hears a faint whimper coming out from Yura's room. His eyes flicked open as he got up into a sitting position, turning his head to look at Yura's bedroom door. He stayed still as he tries to listen to the sound again.

It sounds just like that night when she had a nightmare

Taehyung got to his feet, quickly dashing towards Yura's room before gripping the door knob. He was hesitant to open the door at first but then as the sound of Yura's panting become clearer, he couldn't wait any longer. Twisting the knob open, he quickly pushed himself in to find Yura on her bed, hugging herself in her sleep, panting as she sweats. She looks entirely frightened and that made his heart drop.

He quickly ran to her side, slowly gripping her hand as he calls out her name.

"Yura, wake up", he calls out to her, again and again.

Yura was struggling as she tries to get out of her nightmare, feeling the warm touch of a hand holding her, she gripped the hand tighter. As if she was dropped from a height, Yura wakes up panting, almost breathless as she opens her eyes. She got up in panic, feeling a tug on her hand making her turn to look to her side.

Taehyung

"Yura, I am here", he said softly as he pushes a few strands of her hair to the back.

Feeling the image of the nightmare crawling back to her, she tightens the grip of her hand on Taehyung's, looking down as she holds her tears from falling. She feels scared, almost being haunted by the same terrifying dreams for years. Sana was always there whenever it happens, but then this time Taehyung is here. And she never felt safer.

Taehyung watches as Yura looks down and without any second thoughts, he pulled her into his arms. One hand still holding her hand and another at the back of her head, pulling her closer to him.

"Don't be scared, I am here"

Yura froze when he pulled her into him but then, she feels at ease feeling his hand in her hair, keeping her close. Taehyung tighten the grip of his hand and pulled her closer to him, wanting to comfort her. She slowly rests her heard on his chest, leaning onto him as she tries to calm herself. Being close to him, inhaling the scent of him is making her feel at home. The sweet smell of lavender oil lingers around her senses, making her remember everything pieces of memory she had left behind.

Both of them stayed like that, letting time walked them through the moment slowly. As if being in Taehyung's arms is a healing, Yura feels herself getting calmer as all those horrifying images of her nightmare seems to disappear as seconds passes by. She feels at ease, and safe in his arms.

After a while, realizing the situation, she snapped out of her trance and  pulls away, clearing her throat. She quickly took her hand and held them together in a fist as her eyes wanders around her room. Just seconds ago, she was deeply embracing the moment being in Taehyung's arms but now, she feels her cheeks burning and her entire body seems to tense.

Now what

"Are you feeling better now?", he asked as he looks at her worriedly.

"I- I am"

"Do you need anything?"

"No", inching backward, trying to distant herself from Taehyung.

"Go back to sleep. I'll be at the living room if you need me", slowly getting off the bed, Taehyung helps her adjust the blanket as she lies down once again.

"Thank you", she said as she turns her back to him, feeling the heat rushing to her face as she remembers what happened. It's not that she doesn't want to look at him, but with her feeling flustered, she wouldn't dare to show her face to him.

Taehyung watches as she pulls the blanket all the way to her shoulder, snuggling into her blanket as she lies down, looking so small and fragile.

"Goodnight"

Slowly heading towards the door, he was about to reach for the doorknob when she suddenly called him.

"Taehyung", her voice was faint whisper, but still loud enough for him to hear.

He slowly turns around, looking at Yura still having her back on him.

"Stay"
