Basorexia

Chapter 27

Taehyung's pov:

Taehyung walked down the school's corridor keeping an eye out for certain people. The more he walked the more his legs trembled and he could feel his legs nearly give way.

They have been calm for the past two weeks and this stirred a little fear in Taehyung. No matter how hard he's tried to convince himself that maybe they just kept ditching, the fear still stuck to him.

Taehyung sighed as he was finally out of school gates. Now all he needed to do was look for his ride. With roaming eyes scanning the parking lot Taehyung's heart began to race.

His designated driver wasn't there. He check his phone and noticed a message saying the car broke down so it would take a while to pick up Taehyung. The boy's heart squeezed itself up to his throat.

One, one small tap sent shivers down Taehyung's spine. Jooheon sent a sick smile his way. Taehyung wanted to vomit. His heart was still punching in his ears.

He could feel his throat tighten. "Hey, mister kissy! Been a while, no?" Jooheon said. Kihyun places his hands on Taehyung's shoulders. This bound to happen; Taehyung was well aware of how good his days have been.

For once Taehyung found a boy who was fine with his basorexia. He began to make friends, and even lucked out in finding a boyfriend. Everything was good, too good for Taehyung.

Since birth the boy was meant to have a difficult life. It was since his mention of his disorder that Taehyung knew happiness wasn't a thing. Being rich is just the small amount of comfort given to him.

Taehyung sighs as he looks at the ground. No, it wasn't a surprise that he was going to have a bad thing happen. Jooheon lifts his head up, "Don't be so down. We are just here to remind you."

Taehyung is confused. Remind? What should they need to remind him of? Either way it was for sure nothing good. Jooheon pulls out a phone from his pocket. A play button is on the screen.

The memories of that dreaded day with Hyungeon return. He drops to his knees. What a disgusting waste. Taehyung thinks as his hands tremble and tears begin to form.

Shownu notifies Jooheon, "Your ride his here. Kihyun you were going to hitch a ride with him too, right?" Jooheon and Kihyun both nod getting up and leaving the boys alone. Taehyung hugs himself to feel some sort of comfort.

He can't seem to find the strength in his legs to get up. A hand is placed on his shoulder gently. Taehyung looks up at a saddened Shownu. The boy give him a soft smile.

He grabs Taehyung's hands and pulls the boy to his feet. He dusts away the dirt on the frail boy's pants. Shownu bows, "Please forgive Joohoney's actions. He's struggling with personal things. Both him and Kihyun."

Taehyung pulls the boy up from the bow and smiles. Yes, although it hurts to get punched and kicked he couldn't hold a grudge on someone who was hurting.

"It's fine. May I ask what he is going through?" Taehyung questions Shownu. Shownu was hesitant which cause Taehyung to add, "You don't have to if you don't want to. I wouldn't want it to ruin your friendship."

After that was said Shownu admitted, "They are afraid of their sexuality. Joohoney, and I-we have something, but he's reluctant. Kihyun and Hyungwon..." Taehyung nods understanding the situation.

In all honesty he feels bad for Shownu considering that the boy seems deeply in love with Jooheon. Still he can't force anything on the boy because it could ruin their friendship. Taehyung chews his lip.

He really didn't know what to do. He was at a loss for words. He wanted to apologize to Shownu about his situation, but that would only make the boy sad.

As Taehyung wanted to say something Shownu pecks his lips. Taehyung is surprised, and watched as Shownu dives in for another kiss.

This time Shownu swipes his tongue on the boys bottom lip. Taehyung is so stunned he doesn't even move. Soon Shownu pulls away tears in his eyes. "P-please help me forget him."

Taehyung didn't like the kiss. It was strange since he found Shownu's lips appealing. There has been a number of times the boy has wanted to kiss Shownu, but the guilt are away at his desires.

Taehyung patted the boy's back letting the boy cry on his shoulder. They embrace each other in a warm hug. Shownu continues to cry.

Ok so the scene ain't happening in this chapter, but this one does lead to the scene. -lazynim
