SaVe Me Ft. Kim Taehyung (BTS) {COMPLETED ✔️}

Part Thirty-One 삼십일

I still feel my cheek tangle from Mick's hand. I can't believe he actually hit me... My old friend Mick hit me...

I hold onto the wall to keep myself from falling. My cheek tingles and starts to burn. I feel tears burning in my eyes, but I don't want to cry. I don't want to give him that satisfaction!

"HEY!" I hear a car door slam. I hear footsteps running towards us. I look up and feel a cheer of joy in my bones when I see Taehyung running towards us. When he gets closer, I notice how angry he is. Taehyung grabs Mick and literally throws him away from me. Mick falls on the ground and groans of pain. "What the hell?!" He shouts.

Taehyung stands in front of me, facing Mick like a shield between Mick and me. Mick stands up again and looks at Taehyung. "Get away from her," Taehyung warns him. I hear anger in voice, something I've never heard before. I see how Taehyung clenches his fists of anger.

Mick looks from Taehyung at me. He seems completely confused by the sight of Taehyung defending me. He stares at Taehyung, like he is figuring out who he is. "Wait a minute..." He says. He takes a step closer to Taehyung, but keeps staring at his face. "You are one of them, aren't you?!" Mick asks. Taehyung doesn't say anything.

Mick looks from Taehyung at me. "Are you serious, Alyssa?!" He asks me. "Now I know why you didn't fall for me! You want to get into his pants!" Mick shouts. Taehyung takes a threatening step closer towards Mick. "Watch it," He warns Mick. Mick looks at Taehyung and laughs. "Are you completely stupid?" He asks Taehyung.

"Mick!" I warn him, but Mick keeps staring at Taehyung. "I hate to break it to you, dude, but she doesn't like you," Mick says, "She just wants to use you to get what she wants! Because that is all she does! She uses other people to get what Alyssa wants. She doesn't give a crap about you!" Mick grins proudly. "I've been there too, you know. She used me to get to you. And now she is using you to get famous!" Mick says. "Because that is who she really is!" He shouts.

Taehyung seems to have enough. He takes a step closer to Mick and hits him in his face, hard. Mick falls on the ground and moans in pain. "Listen, jerk, you need to get as far away from her as possible. Don't you dare show your face ever again! Because you will regret it!" Taehyung threatens him. Mick looks up to Taehyung and looks a little scared. I get it though, Taehyung looks really intimidating standing over him.

Mick looks from Taehyung to me. He looks really angry, but doesn't say anything. Taehyung turns back around to me and walks back to me. "Let's get out of here," Taehyung says. I nod and grab my bag and box from the ground. Taehyung takes the box from me and I follow him to his car. Mick stands up from the ground, but he doesn't say anything else and he doesn't follow us.

Taehyung opens the car door and I put my bag and the box in the car. We both get in the car, Taehyung starts the car and drives away. "Are you okay?" Taehyung asks me. "Yes," I tell him. I can feel the tension and adrenaline in the car. I hear the high speed of Taehyung's breathing. I look at his hands and see how he holds the steering wheel with all of his strength.

A few minutes later, we arrive at Taehyung's house. He parks the car in front of the house and turns it off. He turns around to me and looks at me with concern in his eyes. "I am sorry I hit him," he tells me. I smile and grab his hand. "I don't mind. If I could, I would hit him myself," I tell him. Taehyung smiles a little, but then looks at my face. The worry returns to his eyes and he moves his hand to my cheek. "Does it hurt?" He asks. "A little," I tell him.

Taehyung sighs. "I am so sorry he hit you," he says, "I arrived and saw how he hit you, but I couldn't do anything about it... I wish I would've arrived sooner..." I smile of his concern and squeeze his hand a little. "It's not your fault," I tell him, "I am glad you came when you came." Taehyung smiles and wraps his arms around me. Even though it isn't really comfortable, hugging in his car, it feels amazing. After the fear I felt a few minutes ago, I finally feel safe again.

Taehyung lets go of me and looks outside. "I don't know if you wanted to go here or to go home, but I just drove here," he says. I smile, "that's okay." "I can get you home if you want," Taehyung says. I grab his hand. "I really want to stay with you," I tell him. Taehyung blushes and puts his hand on my - not hurting - cheek. He leans in and kisses my lips. I relax completely and feel joy and happiness again. After the strange day I just had, it feels amazing to be with him, especially being this close to him.

We both let go and get out of the car. I leave my bag and the box with my work stuff in the car and follow Taehyung to the house. As a real gentleman, Taehyung holds the door for me and lets me go inside first. I thank him with a smile and go inside. I see Namjoon and Jungkook in the living room.

They look up when Taehyung and I come inside and smile. "Hey guys!" Namjoon says. "Ali, we heard you were able to quit at your job already! Congrats!" Jungkook says. I smile wide. "Thank you! I am very happy about it and can't wait to start at my new job," I say. "We can't wait either! You'll start tomorrow, right?" Namjoon asks. I nod, "Yes, it's very exciting!"

Taehyung puts his hand on my back. "Come with me," he says. He grabs my hand and I follow him into the kitchen. Taehyung turns around to me and puts his hands on my hips. He picks me up and lets me sit on the kitchen counter. "Let's take care of that cute cheek of yours," he says and grabs a bag of ice. He softly holds it against my cheek.

It hurts a little bit and feels really, really cold, but it feels good. I still feel how Mick hit me... My heartbeat speeds up as I think back to everything Mick said. I feel tears burning in my eyes. I really thought Mick was my friend... I thought he was one of the sweetest people I knew... Clearly I was wrong, I was so, so wrong...

"Are you okay?" Taehyung asks me. I look at him and feel a lost tear escape my eye. Taehyung wipes it away and caresses my cheek with his thumb. "The things he said..." I say. Taehyung smiles weakly, "Those were all lies." I look at him and feel scared. "How do you know that for sure?" I ask him. He puts the bag of ice down and looks at me.

He laughs, "Because I know you." I smile, but still feel a little scared. "But you don't know me that long," I remind him. Taehyung smiles, "Baby, I know enough to know that everything he said was a lie. He thought he could mess things up between us, but he can't. I know you are nothing like the person he pretended you to be. You have a big heart and you would never use anyone for your own good." I smile wide. "I know the real you," he says, "the you who stole my heart and the you who I love very much."

I blush and smile at him. I put my hands in his neck and kiss his lips. He puts his hands on my back and stands closer to me. I wrap my legs around his waist to keep him as close to me as possible.

I was scared Mick would change Taehyung's mind about me. But now I realize that that won't happen. The connection Taehyung and I have is way stronger than that. Like he said, he knows me. He knows the real me. And he loves me for who I am. That's all I need in life. I only need him.
