Heartbeat (ON HOLD)

If I Was Worth It

Taehyung's POV

"Because if I was worth it, you would love me." I blinked. My eyes returned to normal and I just stared at her. "You're really going to base your worth... off of me...?" I asked softly. "Yes..." she responded. I push off the bed and move away from her. She looks down. Because if I was worth it, you would love me. What could I say to that? "You shouldn't base your worth off of someone else."

"There's a lot of things I shouldn't do, but that doesn't stop me from doing it. We were all much better off before you vampires took over." I growled at that. "I was much better off before I met you." I glared at her. She's just hurt. Don't do anything you'll regret... you've done that before. "You don't mean that." She looks me dead in the eyes. "But I do." My jaw clenched. I leave the room slamming the door behind me.

Because if I was worth it, you would love me. I shook my head. "She's just hurt... she didn't mean what she said... she didn't..." "Taehyung? Are you okay?" Namjoon asked as I walked into the living room. I sat down in one of the chairs and let out a stressed sigh. "No." "What's wrong?" I shake my head. "I guess we'll do this the hard way..." He rolled his eyes, the. He began to ask questions.

"Does this have to do with (Yn)?" I nod. "What exactly about her?" I sighed, and then I told him the conversation. "Ouch." Was his response once I finished. Because if I was worth it, you would love me. "She didn't mean any of that... right....?" "I don't know Taehyung, I would like to say he's and that she's just hurt, but... maybe on some level it's true.... because before she met you, she may not have had the best life being constantly in the run from our kind but..."

"But at least she didn't have a broken heart, she didn't fall in love with someone who obviously doesn't love her back, or that's what she thinks because the person she's in love with refuses to admit it." I rolled my eyes at the last bit. "I'm not refusing to admit anything I—" "Taehyung. Your body became attached, and you know that your body wants only her."

"You even admitted yourself that you would—" "I know what I said, you don't have to say it back to me." He smirked at me. "Does that embarrass you Taehyung? Hearing out loud back to you that—" "Yes! It does!" I cut him off, cringing internally. "You really have no idea how you feel about her do you?" "... no... I don't..." "Hoseok told me something earlier."

Uh oh... "He said when he went to get you both for lunch, you were very close to each other, and I mean your faces were. He said if you moved forward even a little bit you would've ended up kissing her." My face turned red. And now I have to kill Hobi. "Taehyung, I know you don't see it. But dude, you're head over heels for this girl." I blinked. No I'm not.

"I know you don't think that, but you really really are. I've seen the way you look at her, how you treat her, and don't even get me started on the way you smile at her. Taehyung, you're so determined to protect her and worry about her that you don't realize how hard you've fallen." "When you called that meeting, I had never seen you so angry. You never cared before when your Bloods got away but then one you let go willing, and with your crest around her neck."

"Hyung—" "Taehyung, just think about it. Okay?" With that he stood up and left. Because if I was worth it, you would love me. "Do I...?"

Your POV

I flinched when he slammed the door. I only partially meant what I said, while I do think my life was better before meeting him... I almost preferred the vampires rule.... for one, at least they made sure everyone in their territories were fed properly... at least if they cooperated... I got onto the bed more and laid down. I curled my legs into myself and I sighed as a tear involuntarily fell from my eye.

I'm such an idiot... I should apologize... I sighed and sat back up. Please legs... work... I took a deep breath and I tried to stand. It was very shaky. I stumbled forward I get to the door, and keep myself standing. Come one. You can do this. You can do this. I took another breath and I opened the door.

I used the wall as support as I tried to find Taehyung. My legs began to shake more. They still don't have their strength back. I take a few more steps before my legs give out on me.

Taehyung's POV

I heard footsteps and a hand hitting a wall every now and then. I turn my head just as I see (Yn) falling. In an instant I'm up and I catch her before she hits the ground. "(Yn), what are you doing! You should be resting!" I told her as I carried her back to the room. She looked me in the eyes as I stood in front of her again. "I'm sorry for what I said earlier." I blinked.

"I didn't mean it..." Because if I was worth it, you would love me. "But you did..." "No, Taehyung I didn't I just—" "No, you did mean it." "Taehyung—" I snapped my fingers locking the door again. "You're life probably was better before we found you... you weren't hurt...." She looked down. "Don't base your worth off me. You're the most beautiful woman I have ever met."

She shakes her head. "Taehyung—" "You can't convince me otherwise, and if I have to spend an eternity trying to prove it to you, then so be it." I put my hands on the bed again, retuning to the closeness we've had two times already today. I know what my body wants me to do... but I don't know if I can.

"Then I'll spend an eternity trying to prove to you that I'm not, because I—" She looked up at me and gasped. I smirked. Her heart began to pound loudly in her chest. Oh how I missed this. "Because you what, Princess?" Her eyes widened and her face turned redder. "Be-because I— u-um I'm n-not beautiful, I'm—" "You're right." She blinks and her hurt shows loud and clear in her eyes.

"Wh-what?" I move closer, her heart pounds faster. "You're right. You're not beautiful." She looks down. "Hey. Look at me." She slowly looks back at me, I see the tears starting to form in her eyes. I smile softly. "You're far beyond that. You're drop dead gorgeous Princess." I move even closer. Any closer and... "You're gorgeous inside and out, you're more attractive than any vampire I have met."

"You're amazing, you're kind, you're caring, you're talented, your voice is gorgeous, both you speaking and singing, everything about you, is just gorgeous and I—" I can't say it... I can't say it... Her heart pounded louder and her eyes were locked on my lips. "(Yn)?" She hummed in response, very distracted. I smirked. "Heartbeat." With that I crashed my lips into hers.
