"Can i kiss you?"
The words rung inside of Taehyung's head, making him shiver as a small smile etched it's way onto his pretty lips.
He couldn't help but bury his face in his hands as he flushed a deep pink, the memory of what happened still vividly replaying in his mind.
He uncovered his face slightly, a crooked grin on sight as he chuckled lightly.
Who knew Jungkook was such a romantic?

"Can i kiss you?"
Taehyung visibly widened his eyes at the request, all normal thoughts flying out of his head at what Jungkook had asked.
He remembered gulping, raising an eyebrow as he looked at the ravenette before him.
"W-what was that?" Taehyung stuttered, wondering if his ears had heard what he thought he heard.
"Can i kiss you?" Jungkook repeated softly, no signs of making a move as he patiently waited for the brunette's response.
Taehyung couldn't believe his ears. This had to be a dream. But the hot breath fanning his lips told him that this was more than real.
Suddenly, Taehyung panicked.
He started getting hot and jittery as he felt himself turn to jelly. Taehyung felt cold sweat form on his forehead as he instantly shut his eyes tightly from the horrible feeling. He suddenly felt weak, but he didn't know why.
He felt his legs lose control as he collapsed onto the floor, waiting for an impact. But it never came.
Instead, he felt strong arms envelope him, pulling him onto the floor gently. He landed on someone's lap, instantly realising it was Jungkook's.
"Shh, what's wrong?" Jungkook whispered, caressing Taehyung's back softly as the other visibly trembled.
Taehyung didn't say anything, instead, horrible thoughts came flying into his mind, blocking out any positive or rational thinking.
Jungkook wanted to kiss him.
But for some reason, Taehyung wasn't ready.
Yes, he had felt a strong connection to the alpha ever since he arrived at this pack, and he couldn't deny that he had felt some sort of attraction to the raven haired male.
But the lingering thought at the back of his mind prevented him from taking it a step further, afraid he would end up broken again if Jungkook decided to leave him, just like how everything else did.
That's why Taehyung had panicked.
He was scared, and you can't blame him when he came from a broken home and had a pretty horrible life before this.
His anxieties and fears were kicking in, and Jungkook could feel it.
His wolf could feel the sudden pain his mate was feeling.
So, Jungkook tightened his grip on the brunette, eliciting a small whimper from the smaller male.
"Taehyung." Jungkook breathed. "Look at me."
Taehyung shook his head, afraid to meet the other's eyes.
"Taehyung."
Taehyung cried softly, peeling his hands off of his face as he slowly looked up, instantly catching the ravenette's gaze.
It wasn't hard or angry.
Instead, his gaze was soft and tender, as a hand slowly made it's way to caress Taehyung's face lovingly.
"Taehyung." Jungkook repeated softly, staring into the other's eyes. "You are my mate, yes. Whether you believe it or not. But i will not force anything upon you. I'm not that type of person. Just know, that no matter how long it takes for you to accept me, be it a thousand years or more, i will patiently wait."
Taehyung felt himself melt at the ravenette's words, tears threatening to fall from his eyes as he suddenly launched himself forward and enveloped Jungkook into a tight embrace, seemingly surprising the other too.
Jungkook slowly returned the tight hug, loving how his small mate felt in his arms. He had never felt this much contentment in a long time, and he smiled at the thought.
"T-thank you, Jungkook." Taehyung whispered, his face nuzzled on Jungkook's chest.
Jungkook smiled softly, caressing the other's curly, brunette locks.
"You're my mate, Taehyung..." Jungkook whispered. "I'd do anything for you."

Taehyung flushed at the memory, a big smile on his face as he flopped onto his bed, his happiness pouring ten folds.
He giggled like a young, school girl at the ravenette's words, a sudden wave of gratefullness washing over him.
He turned to his side, heart content as he smiled softly, Jungkook's words etched in his mind.
"Thank you for waiting for me..." he whispered, a sudden surge of sleepiness washing over him as he finally closed his eyes, feeling content beyond belief.

Across the pack house, another happy soul hopped onto his bed, hands behind his head as he wore a goofy smile.
Jungkook sighed happily, remembering the feeling of the other in his arms.
"You didn't even get to kiss him, you fool." Jeongguk huffed, whining at the fact Jungkook hadn't kissed his mate.
"Oh, patience, Guk. You have to understand that i'm not going to force anything on him." Jungkook replies, the smile still plastered on his face.
"Well you better hurry up, or i might just have to take over." Jeongguk said, making Jungkook roll his eyes.
"I know you won't be able to force anything on him. You may look like a big monster to everybody, but you're such a softie when it comes to Tae." Jungkook laughs, hearing a huff from his wolf.
"Very funny, Kook." Jeongguk laughs sarcastically before his voice goes into a serious whisper. "But promise me something. No matter what happens, you'll protect Taehyung, alright?"
Jungkook's gaze darkens as he internally nods.
"I'm no where far from doing just that."
~
I'm sorry you didn't get your long awaited kiss, but i promise it'll be in upcoming chapters. Just understand that Tae's not ready yet.
And i thought that Jungkook saying he's willing to wait for Tae was cute, so--
Anyways, take care of yourselves during this period, okay? Wash your hands and drink lots of water.
Love you petals 🌹
