Take Her Down (BTS FF)

°•○●FIN●○•°

He wrapped his arms around me from behind locking me in place 

"Please..please wait"

I started sobbing, I put my hands over my face and cried while he kept his arms around me
"Hey! He's hurting Ms Daisy!" one of the kids yelled out before he ran over and started hitting Tae's back "let her go!" 
He released me and apologized to the little boy, I thanked him and then stared at Taehyung while Arabella continued to cry
"I have to go" 
"Please, I need to talk to you" his eyes started to water and I felt myself breaking all over again 
"I will feed her, and you will talk. That's all you will get" 
"Deal" he bit his bottom lip and looked over at Arabella, I picked her up and soothed her as I wiped the tears from my face 

We walked outside and sat across from each other in the garden while I fed the baby 
"Is she.." he asked as he gripped the ends of his chef's coat, he was nervous and fidgety 
I sighed and nodded "she is. Arabella Kim" 
His eyes went wide and before I knew it he was sobbing into his hands, Arabella had fallen asleep after she was done her bottle so I held her and burped her as I silently cried and tried to look at anything other than the love of my life sobbing on his knees in the grass. 

After a few moments had passed he finally collected himself and wiped his face as he continued to sniffle and stare at the ground 
"I'm so sorry Daisy" 
I remained silent 
"I don't blame you for not telling me. I don't blame you for not returning my calls, I know Steph told you every time, I deserve that. I did this to myself" 
He finally sat on his butt and stared up at me 
"I hurt you. That's the worst thing I've ever done in my life. I don't ever expect you to forgive me or take me back" 
He thought about what to say next 
"If you don't want me to be involved in her life, I understand. I hate it, I hate it so fucking much. I missed your pregnancy, I missed her birth, I've already missed what? Three? Four months of her life? Time I'll never get back. And that's my fault. I understand that" he nodded as he put his head back down
"I thought nothing good came out of such a shitty situation, but two amazing things happened" he softly smiled "My daughter was born, and Namjoon is away for life. After everything he did. He's gone" 
His daughter. 
God, those words. 
My heart broke again. 
"Tae" I spoke up "I can forgive you for what you've done. I understand it to an extent, I don't like it, and it took me months of therapy to learn how to cope. But I forgive you"
"Daisy" he gasped, he went to move towards me but I flinched making him halt his movements
"With that being said. I will not be taking you back. I understand you want to be in our daughter's life, I expected that, and honestly I'd be more pissed off if you didn't because even though I think you're an asshole, I also know that you can be a genuinely good person" I sighed "if you want to be in her life, I'm all for it and willing to work with you. I'm not the type of person to keep a child away from a parent. I won't tell you no to spending time with her with in reason you can't just call me and say 'I'm taking her for three days have her ready in five' it doesn't work like that an-" 
"I will take any amount of time you will give me Daisy. If I cross any boundaries or mess anything up tell me, I want to be there for her always, for you as well. I still love you Daisy..I meant every word I ever said. I know you believe that, you still wear my ring, you named our daughter after a flower that just happens to be purple? Like it's not my favorite? I won't pressure you, but if ever there is a chance...even a little one..that you will take me back, just know I'm yours" 
"That, Tae, that is boundaries. We're discussing our daughter, not our past" 
"Okay" he whispered 
"Do you want to hold her?"
"Are you sure?"
"She's your daughter Tae, of course I'm sure" 
"Thank you" he whispered as he stood up from the ground and sat next to me on the bench, I handed her to him carefully and as soon as she was in his arms he started to cry again. 
"She's perfect" he whispered as he caressed her face with his fingers 

As the weeks went by Tae was at my house almost every single day to see Arabella, we kept our conversations to a minimum. We got used to each other's company and would walk around each other as we cared for our daughter. 

I came out of the shower one night and found them both asleep on the sofa, Tae had his feet up on the coffee table with his legs bent and Arabella sleeping soundly on her back on his thighs, his head was down as if he fell asleep staring at her. 

My heart melted. 

He really was a great father. 

I would catch myself smiling when he played with her, bathed her, any interaction between the two of them made my heart race. More often than not I found myself going to the bathroom to cry because my emotions were all over the place. He could tell I had been crying, and I would find him opening his mouth to say something and then quickly close it. 
I was disappointed. 
But he was only following the boundaries I had placed for us. 

Arabella was six months old when I had finally made up my mind. 

"I guess now that she's asleep, I'll get going" he said as he stood up from the couch and grabbed his keys 

"Tae?"

"Hmm?"

"Don't go.." I felt my eyes water 

"Okay" he whispered 

Tears started to fall down my face, and I started to sob 

"Don't go" 

He took fast steps towards me and wrapped his arms around me tightly 

"I'll never go anywhere without you Daisy" he whispered as his tears hit my shoulder and I cried into his chest holding onto his shirt for dear life. 

He stayed true to his word. 

He was mine, forever.
