“taehyung!” jungkook called out as he stepped into the room, eyes scanning each corners.

“i'm in my room!” he heard taehyung replied from a distance.

jungkook hurriedly walked into the younger’s room, as he held the gun in his waistband firmly.

jimin, that guy, could have done everything to harm taehyung, he could have even kidnapped him but thank god he didn't even try or he would have experienced having a bullet shower from jungkook’s ammunition.

the first thing that jungkook noticed when he barged into the nude colored room was taehyung’s lithe shaking frame, he was holding his knees against his chest. with his forehead ducked against it.

jungkook suddenly felt guilty of leaving taehyung of the dorm knowing the risks of it.

“hey..” he sighed as he sat on the edge of taehyung’s bed.

but before he could reach over the other, taehyung was already kneeling and throwing himself to jungkook.

sure, taehyung felt absolutely pathetic of doing the action but he never felt so scared in his whole life.

jungkook was caught off guard but still managed to recover himself seconds after, taehyung was a sobbing mess in his chest.

he chuckled, “didn't know that part of my job was to always hug you when you cry..” he murmured against the other’s temple as he caged him in his arms, trying to lighten up the mood.

“kookie, i..” a hiccup, “was so scared.. ” taehyung whispered, loud enough for jungkook to hear.

“i-i’m here.. no one’s gonna hurt you alright?” he stuttered, taehyung sounded so broken.

taehyung looked up with his bloodshot eyes and sat on his heels, facing jungkook.

he sniffed before speaking at the latter, “please don't.. leave me again.” he said through his breathe shakily.

he reached out for jungkook’s tattooed hands before repeating his words, looking at the other pleadingly.

“please.. don't. i'm scared jungkook, i-i don't know what to do..”

“i won't taehyung.” he uttered with conviction, as if he was so sure about his words.

he raised his large to taehyung’s cheeks and slowly worked his thumb to wipe the tears on the younger’s cheeks.

taehyung leaned in against the warm touch as he held jungkook’s wrist.

“promise?”

“yeah, i promise.”

the next day was stressful as hell to say the least, jungkook was informed that jimin already dropped out of the university.

probably hiding and planning something horrible with his parents.

jungkook looked at the sleeping taehyung on the couch, peace was painted across the younger’s flushed face.

he was having nightmares which jungkook found melancholic, taehyung couldn't act like before anymore.

jungkook knew that the situation was causing an emotional and psychological toll on taehyung.

he would always run to jungkook’s side or hold jungkook’s hand whenever he hears knocks coming from the door.

suddenly jungkook’s phone rang, breaking his train of thoughts.
