CHAPTER 88

Jennie's P.O.V.

"Goodnight unnie." I bid my goodbye as I held unto the door handle, ready to go in. As unnie walks away, I readily held unto the door knob to get inside when something caught my arm.

Taehyung grabbed my wrists, halting me to go inside. "Can we talk?" I nodded right away, closing the door shut. We walked through corridors, carefully using the stairs and leads me to the beach.

My footsteps printed on the sand as I take a step every second. The rushing wind hits my skin, the cold breeze making me shiver.

"Do you know how calming is the sea?" Taehyung's sudden, random question made my brows raise, "It is very calming." I replied.

"It is very calming. Blue and deep, beautiful and natural, soothing and makes me want to go to it when I am in sorrow." I continued to furrow my brows, not knowing where his conversation is leading to.

"It's calming how your body feels warm from the rays of the sun, what it feels like to have your feet in the sand, to breathe deep and smell the ocean air, and then everything suddenly is gonna be alright." We sat on a bench, facing the sea with waves colliding and crashing under the silvery moonlight.

"But of course except the rays of the sun since it is night time tight now." He informs as he realizes, which made me smile a little.

"But do you know why am I talking about all these things?" I looked at him as his eyes stared intently unto my own, "No?" I responded and then he curves his lips up to a smile.

"It's because the ocean reminds me of you, you remind me of the ocean..." His low and angelic voice says, with his deep, and almond eyes staring unto mine.

"Everytime I look at the ocean, feel the sand on my feet, feel the breeze hitting my skin, it makes me feel at peace." I couldn't help but get my eyes teary as he said such words.

"Just like how I smile when I see you smile, I feel special when you're with me, I feel at peace when I just feel your touch, your warm embrace and to hear your angelic voice."

Taehyung....

He took my hand and intertwined it with his, "For the past week, all I could think of is you. I really miss you."

"I know you are facing some difficulties now, and that you are still not ready to continue the relationship we used to share," He stops for a while, and puts his thumb on my chin, making me face him.

"But I'll wait for you. I will." His smile even became wider, which made me scream hapiness deep inside.

"Taehyung, I really missed you too." My eyes were glies to the ground, lips bitten in anxiety.

"I thought I'd be fine without you. I thought, I wouldn't long for you at all. But the more you are gone, the more I miss you. Everything about you..."

"Jennie-" I cut him off with a shush, "The thing is, I'm always afraid of everything. If I'll be happy with you again, I'm sure there is some tragedy on replace of joy." I looked at the beach waves at they crash to the shore faster, with my tears streaming continously.

"I'm afraid to be judged, to dissapoint anyone, to bring loneliness to anyone." I stated, with him massaging the palm of my hand.

He made me face him again, carresing my cheek as he wipes my tears away.

"You said you are afraid to make someone sad. But do you think I would be happy without you?" He says, which made me stop.

"I know the fear inside you is eating you up like a monster, I know a lot of people dislike you and look down of you." He tugs my hair behind my ears,"But they don't define you."

"Notice those who loves you and cherishes you, and smile. Don't let yourself down because of other's words." His words hit me like a knife, piercing through my heart directly.

"And Jennie, I love you. Look into the hearts of those love you, and tell yourself someone loves you."

I know someone loves me dearly but... words from other people make me doubt myself.

"Taehyung..." before words could escape my mouth, I pulled him into an embrace, sobbing into his shirt.

"Stop crying, you baby. Look at me and smile." He placed two fingers by the side of my lips, forming it into a big smile.

"It still doesn't feel right..." He says. I tugged my lips into a real smile, "Is this alright now?" And so he nods with a big smile on his face.

"Taehyung, let me do it over again. For the past week you made me realize how much I needed you." I started right again, sighing.

"And right now, you just showed to me my purpose and meaning to you. You made me smile, just like you always do."

"And Taehyung, I really love you..." I confessed, with my heart pounding like crazy, blood rushing on my veins as my smile becomes wider.

"If before it was just simple feelings, just liking you, right now it's different."

"I love you."

"I love you more Jennie..." He pulled me closer to him, petting my head as we embrace. "No, I love you most Taehyung."

"Then, I love you mostest Jennie." I pulled myself from the hug, looking at him with a furious look.

"But there's no such word as mostest!" I say at loud, "Aish, who cares.. But I really do love you more than words can say." He flatters me again, making my cheeks heat up, flustered and red.

"Let's just go back to our rooms. You are being silly now." I say, standing up from my seat.

........
"That was a reay short walk. I never thought the room was just this near..." I pouted, "I'd like to spend some more time with you too, darling."

"But it's time to go to sleep now." He says, "Goodnight pumpkin, I love you." He kisses my forehead, staring into my eyes intently.

"Goodnight Taehyung, love you too. Bye." I bid my goodbye and opened my room, when a hand blocked it from closing.

"Taehyung?!" He went inside my room without any notice, jumping to my bed afterwards.

"It's been a while since I last saw you, hugged you and kiss you. You wanted to spend more time right? Me too." I tried to kick him off the bed,

"Yah, what if our manager will know about this? Are you insane? Get out of my room now!" I yelled, hitting him with a pillow.

"I'm not doing anything, I just want to sleep with you. It's been a while since I last slept with you." He says, with a wide grin written on his face.

"Have you forgotten we aren't siblings anymore? Taehyung, just get out of the room before anyone would know about this." I tried to push him off, when he gripped on my waist, pulling me to lay on the bed.

"No. I'm staying here." He insists, and I roll my eyes in annoyance. "Okay, but let's put pillows in between us."

"And why?" He asks, "You are a man, I am a woman in one bed." I grabbed a pillow and started putting it in between us.

"We are in a relationship. We could do all those fun things in bed." He winked, while I hit his face with a huge pillow.

"Okay okay, let's put pillows in between then." He rolls his eyes and just starts to make the border in between.

"Goodnight, Jennie." He placed his soft lips against mine, leaving a small peck. "Goodnight Taehyung."

I faced the other wall and try to close my eyes to sleep. But no matter what, I can't sleep at all.

I can't sleep at all, smiling like a fool as I think of you again and again...
