BEHIND THE CAMERA || KTH

Chapter 10

He circled his arms around my waist, calmly trapping me as if I were a very delicate and fragile object which will crumble if touched.

I wrapped my arms around his neck and sobbed in his chest. I was mumbling profanities to myself in his chest and he brushed my hair empathetically, trying to relieve my stress.

We just engulfed in each other not caring about the world. I just cried and he peacefully comforted me.

Taehyung P.O.V

In that moment of feeling her so close I am awake somehow, more alive than I have been in so very long.
For there are times where I think of her as a butterfly who yearns for the cocoon, to be safe within walls, protected.
That's what I feel. It helps. So if it would be okay, if that's what she wants too, I will wrap my arms around her every chance the universe is kind enough to bring.

Y/N P.O.V
Jungkook texted me and told me to come at a nearby cafè. The bell jingled as I reached there and saw his silhouette waiting patiently.

He turned around at the sound and flashed me a fake smile which provided a cover to all the emotions of guilt, stress and disappointment.

I returned the smile and approached towards him feeling a pang of guilt for rejecting him.
"Hi."said Jungkook as I sat down. "Hey."I grinned. "So umm..about yesterday. Listen..I really liked Serena but when I was with her I couldn't be myself. I felt that she wasn't the right one for me. And as you read in the diary yesterday, my parents forced me to date her."frowned Jungkook.

"I've known you since I was a kid and always thought about how cool you are. You are a badass Y/N."added Jungkook and chuckled.

Jungkook is a really handsome, loving and caring boy. He is everything a girl wants but I just can't see him that way because I practically grew up with him. I never thought of him that way.

"Jungkook, I really love you but I just can't give you the answer you want."I said as sincerely as I can trying my best not to hurt him.

That's the most clichè thing I've ever said. Jungkook sighed and looked up again trying to hide his tears. When he cried there was a rawness to it, like the pain was still an open wound.

He would clasp onto something for support, anything, a table or the back of a chair, and then his whole body would shake.

The sobs were stifled at first as he attempted to hide his grief, then overcome by the wave of his emotions he would break down entirely, all his defences washed away in those salty tears.

When he at last turned his face to me he was a picture of grief, loss, devastation. It was the face of the one who had suffered before and didn't know if he could do it again.

Then, just when I thought the breakthrough would come and he would trust me with his vulnerability, the shutters would come down, his emotion walled off behind a mask of coping. He would just wear it until everything was right again, he didn't know another way.

"It's ok Y/N."he said and wiped his tears with his sleeve. "About Serena. Do you think she would do something like running away just because you didn't love her?"I asked him and he shook his head.

"No. Not at all. We ended things on good terms and she said that she was happy because I was honest about my feelings towards her. She would never run away."he demanded.

"Did she ever talk about being stalked or has she ever felt that someone is following her?" I asked as curiosity took the best of me.

"Not that I know of."he said while pouting and frowning as he looked at the chocolate cake in front of him.

"I think we should leave."I suggested and prepared to stand up. He stood up too and I tightly wrapped my arms around his neck. He hesitated at first but gave in.

I buried my head in his chest, feeling the warmth of my best friend. He wrapped his arms around my waist, caressing it periodically. And again, I felt happy. Yes, I did. The fear of losing him was gone as happiness surrounded me like a warm blanket.

Happiness is in the moment, the more focused the more intense, like a beam of light to the soul. And just as with well focused light, it is then we find better resolution.

We pulled away and I kissed him on his cheek. He chuckled and put his muscly arm around my shoulders and we exited the bijou cafè.

We both were talking casually until Cole texted the both of us at the same time.

Cole: Hurry up! Come to Taehyung's house.

We both looked at each other and stopped dead in our tracks. We quickly walked to Taehyung's house and saw Cole, Jimin, Rachael and of course Taehyung.

"What were you both doing together?"Taehyung asked as he eyed Jungkook's hand which was wrapped around my wrist because Jungkook thought I was walking slower than a sloth and grabbed my wrist so that I could keep up with him.

"Oohh...someone's jealous."I said emphasising the word 'jealous'. "I wasn't jealous. I was angry because you both came l-late." Taehyung said as he tried his best to act tough.

"Stop with the chit-chat and look at this." declared Cole.
