I Need You Dangerously [BOOK 2]

CHAPTER 21: NO ONE WILL HURT YOU

[MEANWHILE AT JUNGKOOK]

'He's alive, but the Taehyung I knew died,' he thought.

Hoseok knelt down beside him, he cried way worse than when he found out that he 'died'.

He wrapped his arms around Jungkook to comfort him, Jungkook was so broken, he can't even utter a word, the mere fact that he was unexpectedly pushed away like that, things couldn't get any worse than this.

He was supposed to be happy, and have him wrapped on the longing warmth of his arms, but instead, his head wrapped around the ugly idea of Taehyung being disgusted with him.

He was supposed to bring him home, along with the joy he was deprived of, but instead, he brought a broken heart.

He was supposed to smile up to his eyes, but instead they shed tears.

Hoseok knew how lost and melancholic he was, he didn't expect that it would worsen.

Also the thought that he accidentally punched him in the eye, he thought that it would decrease the chances of getting him back, and he just realised how much of a monster he was.

Hoseok wiped his tears with the back of his hand and shushed him, "don't give up, he'll retrieve his memory soon. And we can try to make him remember us, okay?"

He was right, it may be possible to restart their relationship as strangers all over again, but will Taehyung cooperate?

"Ouch!" he yelped in pain as Jin added minimal pressure to the cold compress on his eye. Taehyung held the compress in place as Jin let go of it.

Jin shook his head in disbelief, he couldn't process efficiently as Taehyung got harmed by a "stranger" or better known as Jungkook, who, will wholeheartedly, not hurt the hybrid's feelings ever.

"It was really that impactful huh?" He questioned, not tearing his gaze away.

"That fucktard," Taehyung cursed.

"If he weren't drunk, I would've kicked his ass real hard," he didn't want to beat someone drunk, as he didn't want him to wake up in a hospital bed once's he's sober.

Jin chuckled at his statement,"okay, okay that's enough, it's over and you can't do anything about it."

"But you know what, I actually regretted not being there by your side, I felt like——" his speech was interrupted by a weep.

Taehyung sat a little upright in his bed and shuffled his black hair, "why are you crying?"

Jin collapsed his head on the bed, while holding Taehyung's hand, "I-I felt like I've failed on my words that I'll be there by your side."

He lifted his face to meet Taehyung's soft stare, hence the hybrid responded with a kiss on his forehead, then followed,"it wasn't your fault it happened, don't blame yourself for the unexpected."

[MEANWHILE AT JIN]

Whenever he sees the person he likes get hurt, it brings out the fragile side of him, it's like he felt the pain they felt and it already hurts to think about it.

With every waking moment that passed, and with the grain of time freely pouring in the hourglass, he suppressed his feelings for Taehyung for a while.

Well, two years to be exact, he started to like him after three months of his stay, it's just that he had been in denial.

He couldn't wait anymore, so he leaned closer to Taehyung and kissed him.

He was expecting a slap but no...

He was kissed back.

Jin slightly tilted his head to the side and shut his eyes, then he held Taehyung's cheek with one hand.

[MEANWHILE AT TAEHYUNG]

He was taken aback from the kiss, he never thought that Jin would have such feelings to kiss him.

It takes a lot to kiss someone, no scratch that, it takes a load of guts to kiss someone.

Jin withdrew from the kiss, and stated, "Taehyung, I love you."

His eyes widened at Jin's confession. Had he knew that he liked him earlier, he should've voiced out his feelings much sooner.

He saw Jin's anticipation and he chuckled cutely, "Jin, you don't know? I love you too."

It was true, it wasn't forced or just for the sake of keeping their relationship good, he did have feelings for him after all.

Jin upheld a grin, a sweet grin just like how a kid would see their candy right before their eyes, being held by their parents whenever they do something good.

His head laid down on Taehyung's chest, then held his hand tightly.

"I never thought you would return my feelings for you," he spoke gently.

They talked for an hour or two and before you knew it, Jin was beside Taehyung in the bed, whilst the younger nestled his head on Jin's chest.

"And then—-" Jin was interrupted by Taehyung's loud snore, so he chuckled and kissed his boyfriend's nose and whispered a promise, "no one will hurt you ever again."

"The subscriber cannot be reached, please try again later."

"Shit!" He angrily tossed his phone on the bed, he had been calling Jin for over an hour, wanting to retrieve Taehyung back.

"Why isn't he picking up?" He asked to himself, he sat on the bed and hung his head low, he had come to put both of his hands on the top of his head, he sharply withdrew a breath.

He hoped to himself that he hasn't touch Taehyung yet, or God forbid him from doing something he'll regret.

Not that he thought Jin's a bad person, which he wasn't, but, when it comes to Taehyung, only HE wanted to be with him, only HE wanted to be loved, only HE should be desired.

'He better not be doing something with Taehyung' he thought.

Little did he know...

He was a little too late.
