Ch 4

Taehyung spit the toothpasted water out of his mouth, before rinsing the sink with warm water. It was a day off from school, but he couldn't sleep at all tonight from the loud noises coming from their garage

He didn't want to tell his cousin to quiet down, only feeling relieved that yoongi is enjoying himself and being happy.

It had been sure a long time ago since he ever saw his smile, and to keep remembering it he needs to stay that way

Grabbing into his cane, he walked himself downstairs. Hoping he didn't wake yoongi up this early in the morning.

The stairs always felt the same, terrifying. Even though he had his cane by his side as always, it still didn't feel like he was safe when walking down stairs

He didn't know where his foot would lay, and everytime he laid it down, he felt so relieved. Almost like surviving

"what the hell"

The raspy morning voice grunted beside him, after he had without the meaning of it, stumbled on the laying person on the floor beneath the stairs

"Jungkook?"

The blond told startled upon hearing the voice of the other. Jungkook, once his eyes were fully recovered from the slumber he was in, finnaly realized who the person next to him on the floor was

As startled as him he stared at the blond

"what are you doing here"

It sounded rather like a statement than a question to the blond. Neither less he couldn't help let out a soft chuckle at the comment

"I don't know, I thought I lived here"

The blond told, Jungkook was quiet for a while before he got up on his knees. He was ready to turn and leave to get his stuff. Feeling his head throb uncomfortable from last night. He didn't feel like staying any longer than needed.

But before he got to take more than a few steps, he turned around again

A sigh left his lips before he took a hold of Taehyungs tan arm, and dragged him up from the floor like a feather. He was so light, which caught him off guard at first.

Taehyung had let out a weird noise from the sudden action. The other let go of his wrist, replacing it with laying his cane instead in Taehyung hand before turning to leave without any other word exchange.

Taehyung was pretty much to traumatized to talk. So he coped with it by going into the kitchen to prepare a whole lot of breakfast, as he seemed to stumble over plenty body's on his way there

It was surely a long time ago he had got to see these kind of mornings in this house. He used to despise it most of the times, the loud noises, and the cleaning throughout the day made it worse

But today, he felt like the smile on his face was showing otherwise. He felt glad for sure because he missed it. He didn't mind making tons of breakfast for these friends of his cousin

"You sure are just as bad at cooking"

Yoongi said once he walking in on Taehyung setting the table. There were half burned eggs and Burnt toast on the table. Taehyung immediately sent him a death look

"Shut up, like you are any better. Last time you cooked I was never hungry for days after that"

"doesn't that mean it was good?"

"It means it was disgusting, silly. But I ate it anyway. So I don't hurt your feeling like you did now"

Taehyung quietly told the last part, before settling himself down on a chair next to Yoongi.

His plate always had the foods where they are supposed to be. Toast to the right and the burnt eggs to the left. That way, he wouldn't bring unnecessary help from others

For some reason he couldn't start eating, feeling like something was still running around in his mind. He slowly stroked his hand on his arm that had a feeling marked on it from earlier

It still lingered there like an annoying question. Bothering him with over thinking thoughts

"I didn't flinch"

Yoongis attention was brought to his blond cousin when he had quietly said that

"I didn't do anything when he touched me yoongi"

"I didn't"

He continued, a small tug in his lips were formed as he continued to stroke his arm. Yoongi smiled at his cousin, before laying his head on the blonds shoulder

Feeling the warmth from the other, as he couldn't help the smile on his face as the other kept repeating his words while stroking his touched arm

"I didn't flinch"

He whispered again from the memory of Jungkook suddenly grabbing his arm, his cheek staining from his tears as a smile grew on his lips
