Love Me || Taekook

|17|

It wasn't until late at night that Jungkook finally woke up. Almost everyone had gone to sleep, including Taehyung who had refused to go home even after being confronted by Mr. Jung. Only Jin and Namjoon managing to stay up late enough to be aware of Taehyung coming down to get his mate some water. They followed him back up of course, checking that everything was okay before going to bed themselves.

Jungkook was quite shocked when he heard what had happened, not remembering most of it. Taehyung sleepily answered all his questions until he eventually dozed off again, the warmth of Jungkook's body wrapped around his own making the bliss of dream land too enticing to resist. The alpha wasn't exactly tired though. He had just woken up from hours of sleep and didn't feel the need to return to that state quite yet. After a couple of hours focusing on Taehyung's sleeping form, however, he managed to fall asleep again, getting a much deserved rest.

When morning came, neither of the two boys cuddled up together were ready for it. Taehyung's mother and Mr. Jung had come over early to check on Jungkook and try to talk with the omega. "Taehyung...wake up sweetie." Mrs. Kim shook Taehyung lightly, smiling when he stirred and groaned, opening his eyes and glancing at her.

"Go away...." He pushed himself further into Jungkook who was still sleeping like a rock beside him, taking advantage of the warmth and comfort.

"Tae, honey...you need to get up and get ready for school." His mother tried to coax him into listening with her sweet voice. It had always worked in the past, so she didn't see why it wouldn't now.

"I'm not going to school. I'm staying here." His words were a bit muffled by Jungkook's chest, but still audible and determined.

"No...Tae you've already missed too much school recently. You can't skip again. Get out of bed and come home to get ready." She reached out and grabbed her son's arm, pulling on it to drag him out from underneath the covers. Taehyung wasn't happy with this.

"I'm not going back to that damn house!" He jerked his arm back and wrapped it around Jungkook tightly, waking the alpha in the process. "I'm not going back there until he finally gets his head on straight."

"Hey...what's going on?" Jungkook's voice was deep and groggy. He tried to rub some sleep from his eyes, but only managed to wake up a bit. "Tae, what's the matter?" He could smell how distressed his mate was and it was definitely worrying.

"Don't worry about it Jungkook. You still need to rest. We just came to get Taehyung to take him back. Go back to sleep." The deep voice came from behind Taehyung's mother. Mr. Jung's words only made the omega hold onto his mate tighter, making his point that he wouldn't be going willingly. "Taehyung...it's time to go. Listen to your mother and get up."

After a few very long seconds filled with tension, Taehyung hesitantly shook his head. Jungkook was getting ahold of the situation and concern immediately shot its way through him at seeing Taehyung's defiance. He tightened his grip around the now shaking omega and kissed his cheek, anticipating and somewhat fearing what would come next.

"Kim Taehyung get out of that bed."

A loud whine left Taehyung's throat and his body tensed. He unwilling began to push against Junkook to leave the bed. The grip around him only tightened. When he looked up, a shiver went down his spine. Jungkook's eyes were glowing a deep red, anger seeping out through his scent. "Don't move." Taehyung's movements halted.

Jungkook stared up at the other wolves, slowly moving so that he was hovering over his mate protectively, low growls emanating from his throat.

With a sigh, the leader placed a hand on Taehyung's mother. "I think we should give up for now. He's not letting the kid move from that spot without putting up a fight. We'll come back later." He led the woman out of the room and closed the door behind him.

Jungkook didn't relax until he heard their footsteps fade far enough away that he thought it was safe. His eyes reverted to their normal state and his muscles relaxed. He closed his eyes and sank down next to Taehyung, hugging him tightly. He opened his eyes to look at his mate once he noticed his shaking. The first thing he noticed was tears slowly slipping down the poor omega's face. "What's the matter baby? I sent them away. Don't worry okay?"

Taehyung shook his head and moved to wrap his arms around the older, burying his face in the alpha's chest and beginning to cry harder. "You both-...." he tightened his grip. "That voice...I can't..."

"Oh Taehyung..." Jungkook closed his eyes and rubbed his mate's back. He felt awful. "I'm sorry Tae. I wouldn't have used that if I didn't need to. I'm so sorry. It's just-"

"It's okay..." Taehyung sniffled, calming down from the rush of emotion but not making any movement to pull away from his tight hold. "Thank you for stopping them...I didn't want to go."

"I didn't want you to go either." He left a quick his on Taehyung's head, smiling a bit. "I wish we could just cuddle like this forever. I honestly wouldn't mind."

Taehyung giggled and nodded. "That's sounds like a good time to me." He relaxed his muscles a bit and shuffled back so he could see Jungkook's face, leaning up to leave a quick kiss on his lips. He blushed a bit, remembering what had happened the last time they kissed, and turned his body around so his back was pressed against the alpha's torso. "Let's go back to sleep. I'm tired."

"Hmm...okay.." Jungkook agreed happily, placing a few warm kisses against Taehyung's neck before settling down and closing his eyes.
