SPOILED LOVE [TaeKook FF. jjk. kth]

22.

Taehyung had his eyes wide and pained. His chest beating fast, his hand and knees trembling. His eyes staring straight into the whole scene. A girl all over his ma--.

ah. right. Jeongguk is not his man. He's just his husband on the paper and he had no right to actually be mad. His mind got clouded and he didn't hear any further words even though he saw Jeongguk's lips moving as if an attempt for an explanation. 

In a blink of an eye, he turned and started to walk away, leaving the place with a heart painfully stabbed over and over again as the scene replayed in his mind. It was painful. Taehyung had never been so sure of someone before and he never did realize that it would be this rash for his first time.

Wow, love sucks...

In Taehyung's mind, he replayed all the times he had with the man. The way he first saw him, all so handsome and his perfect ideal type. Long curly hair and a nice suit making him even more handsome. The fact that he was surrounded by all other luxuries, he still seemed to be the most expensive one. He thought of the way he had tugged his father's vest and asked him to get him that man. He thought of the way he got mad when he got the answer that he did not like. He thought of the way he pushed his way to the stage and took over the microphone and said those words that changed his whole life.

"I announce my and that man's wedding. We're engaged."

the sound of his own voice echoed his mind and tears, that he did not notice earlier, came rushing down his cheeks and his knees fell to the ground without further thoughts. He got all weak and all he needed now was to go home. There back in Korea.

"Tae!!" He heard a voice calling for him. But what did he hate the most was the fact that he longed for that voice calling his name. He's thankful that they are at the part of the building where there aren't any people for it is exclusive for people with high positions in the company.

He tried to get up from his knees and walk away but he felt strong arms wrapping around his waist and a hard chest pressing against his back, pulling him closer for a tight back hug.

"Shhh," Taehyung immediately said. No. He can't listen to that or any of the reasons or any of his explanations. He knew it would be just as painful as what he had seen. Somewhere in the line of 'Why are you here?' or 'Why are you crying? We're not really husbands, you know that'

and Taehyung is not ready for that...

He immediately wiped his tears and tried to take off the arms around his waist, preventing to let any sob escape his lips. 

"Tae--" 

He'll never be ready for such...

He composed himself and pretended to be fine though his eyes are getting a little swollen and his nose is a little runny. He succeeded with taking the man's arms around his waist and turned to look at him with the most agonizing smile he had ever shown him. Not even on one of their fights.

"S-Sorry... I-I didn't know you were still busy..."

"I-I..." Taehyung was about to speak but Jeongguk cut him with that line he had expected to come.

"Why are you here?" the words sounded too painful to Taehyung's ears as he felt like he's even more unwanted. His eyes moved to that woman standing a few meters away from where he and Jeongguk were standing.

'S-She's... really pretty...' He thought.

"I-I wanted to... u-Uhm..." He mumbled and realized that there was no point in telling him any of it. It would be pointless! Now, he's sure that Jeongguk does not feel the same. "I just went here for fun. I-- I like... F-France..." He said and inhaled, gathering any remaining energy to keep his stance. His eyes went back to Jeongguk and there was a pang of pain on his chest again.
