A few days passed and Taehyung was still at Jungkook's. It was sunday.
The boys didn't go to college the past days because Jungkook still thought that Taehyung had to rest. He still felt bad for him, but he couldn't show his pity. He just pretended to not like him really much because Jungkook didn't know how to show feelings and emotions..

———————

Jungkook still laid in bed while Taehyung was preparing the breakfast downstairs. He was looking at his phone. But suddenly there was this strange feeling again... he felt like he had to protect Taehyung.
Even though the other boy was just downstairs, Jungkook wanted to check if he's fine. So he quickly left his bed and took a look at himself in the mirror. He still looked really sleepy and his hair was messy. He rushed down the stairs and Taehyung was already done with the breakfast. He sat on the couch, snuggled into the big, cosy blanket, looking at his phone.
"Good morning."
"Good morning~"
He looked up from his phone and a little smile was shown on his face. Jungkook was surprised. I swear this was the first time I saw him smile...
But then he recognized the breakfast and got really amazed.
"thank you~"
"Of course~"
The boys ate breakfast together and the rest of the day passed. They didn't do anything special.

—————

It was really late since they spent the evening playing games on Jungkook's switch. Taehyung was about to change clothes when Jungkook entered the room.
"Oh- sorry.. Do you feel uncomfortable when I brush my teeth while you're in here?" Jungkook asked, when the boys were in the bathroom.
"Uh... n-no. Just brush your teeth..." Taehyung mumbled and started to take his hoodie off. He wanted to grab the new pullover, when he suddenly felt Jungkook reaching his wrist.
"Wh-what..."
"Huh?" Taehyung was confused. What did Jungkook mean?
"What... what happened?" he pointed at Taehyung's cut skin full of scars.
"Oh... uh- nothing."
Taehyung quickly pulled his arm away, hiding it behind his back.
"Y-you cut yourself...?"
Jungkook stared at the smaller in shock. He didn't expect anything like that.
"Yeah. Don't worry or something, that was the only way I could calm down." Taehyung explained.
"T-Taehyung..."
"It's okay."
"Don't do that again." Jungkook said.
"Why do you care?" Taehyung asked, pulling the new hoodie over his head.
"I don't know. But where are those bruises from?" he pointed at Taehyung's back and his wrists.
"My stepfather..."

A few minutes later, they laid in bed and talked to each other.
"Jungkook? I think we have to go to college tomorrow."
"Yeah probably. I bet they're missing us."
"No one's missing me.. i don't have friends."
"You have me now."
Taehyung started to giggle a bit and Jungkook smiled when he heard that, but he didn't laugh or smile often.
The lights were already turned off and they both didn't say anything, when Taehyung suddenly whispered something.
"I love you Jungkook..."
He knew the other boy would never respond to that...
