BTS One Shots [Requests Closed]

Inner Child (Taehyung x Reader)

A/N

Onto part three of the four part series! I hope you guys like it so far. I've been thinking about this since I came up with the idea, just takes me awhile to work on it.

Now this takes place where it left off in the last part with Jungkook, but it's Taehyung's turn now.

~~~~~

Seeing (Y/N) pull away from the man she was hugging revealed her stomach, a big baby bump present. Taehyung watched as she gave the man a small smile before he walked away. She sent a glance Taehyung's way, quickly going into a café nearby. Taehyung followed behind her, ruffling his hair in an attempt to fix it. He saw her sit down alone, not getting anything for herself.

Taehyung looked between her at the table and the counter, trying to decide if he wanted to get her something. Taking a look at her, he decided to get (Y/N) her favourite drink. He quickly ordered something for both her and himself, paying and quickly sitting down across from her. He slid the drink towards her, "Here." He said softly.

She glanced at him before bringing the drink closer to her, taking a sip, "Thanks. I'm surprised you remembered what I liked."

Taehyung smiled, "Of course I did. Why would I forget that?"

(Y/N) sent him another glance, facing forward to talk to him, "Why are you here?"

He scratched the back of his neck, "I can't talk to my ex-girlfriend? I just wanted to talk like old friends."

She glared at him for a second before closing her eyes, sighing, "Fine. What did you want to talk about?"

Taehyung perked up at that, "Maybe catch up? How's the pregnancy going?"

She shrugged, taking another sip of her drink, "It's not as bad as I thought. It's just hard to do chores sometimes. And I get pretty bad cravings."

"What?!" Taehyung exclaimed, choking on his drink.

(Y/N) nodded, "Yeah. The craving can range from just a snack to--"

"No, that's not what I'm talking about," Taehyung cut her off. "Why are you doing chores while pregnant? You're supposed to be resting and keeping healthy. Your boyfriend is supposed to do the chores for you."

She looked down sadly, "He doesn't have time for that. He works hard every day to save money for my child. He comes home tired so he should rest."

Taehyung reached forward, wanting to hold her hand but she quickly pulled it back. Taehyung brought his hand back to himself and sighed, "I understand where you're coming from but he's not the one carrying the baby. If it were me, I would--"

"You wouldn't do anything," (Y/N) said, interrupting Taehyung. "You wouldn't even be around that often. You'd be focused on your work even more compared to my boyfriend. You can't compare yourself to him when you know that you'd be worse at this job. And I get that you're just trying to make up for what happened all of those months ago, but it's not working too well. I'm sorry, Taehyung. I have to go now anyways. Thanks for the drink but this doesn't really change anything." And with that, she left the café.

Taehyung could only sit there, thinking about how everything went wrong so quickly. Ever since she left, he had thought about everything she said. And she wasn't wrong. Even after she moved in with him, she still got the same amount of attention she did when she lived in her home country. It wasn't often that he got days off and he would spend those days relaxing, catching up on shows and music he didn't have time for. (Y/N) thought that she would be able to spend a lot more time with him but his busy schedule got in the way.
