「 holding the moon」

Taehyung can easily push him away---he can easily break the hold on his face because the ravenette holds him with tender, in such an delicate manner that Taehyung can easily run away,

The model inhales shakily, unconsciously lifting his hands to rest over the ravenette's chest and they stay there for a moment---they share a look; a broken feeling and it gets conveyed so easily that Taehyung wants to pretend to be naive---even when he can read everything---he wants to pretend that he can't.

"I'm standing in front of you with my heart on the table, waiting for you to accept it---again and again." Jeongguk keeps moving forward, bodies rubbing together that makes Taehyung to clasp onto the ravenette's blazer,

"You are so cruel to do this to me," he whispers, teeth clenched tightly as tears shine in his eyes and with those, the pain flashes.

" Jeongguk," Taehyung thumps softly against his chest and the ravenette steps back,

" I'm sorry," Taehyung cries, cupping his jaw softly as Jeongguk drops his face in his neck, sniffling as he holds the model tightly into his arms, securely and gently.

"No! You're not sorry at all!" Jeongguk replies, face digged deep in the nape of the model,

"I'm really sorry," Taehyung cries and Jeongguk shakes his head, vigorously---in anger and desperation.

" Taehyung-ah." Jeongguk whispers, voice breaking into a whine---as if complaining, yet so small that it gets swallowed within the model's honey skin,

Jeongguk steps back and creates a space between them, within that space remains all their regrets and pain---wanting to fill it with love, but he can't.

"Jeongguk, don't." Taehyung mutters under his breath, making it almost inaudible.

" Okay, I won't."

Taehyung's eyes slightly widen, feels his mind dazed for a moment and he lifts his eyes to dart them on the ravenette---feels his body cold when their eyes meet,

" You know, it's kind of sad," Jeongguk chuckles, humorlessly and Taehyung feels the pain in his words,

"I never thought that I would love someone so deeply and endlessly," He spreads his arms, announcing his appearance as he steps back, Taehyung can't lift his gaze away,

"but here I'm, begging like a pathetic person." Jeongguk scoffs at himself, finding himself more than pathetic at this point.

Taehyung nibbles onto his lower lips to prevent them from trembling, every part of his body feels on fire---the burn is suffocating,

" And I never thought I'd be loved, "

This time, Taehyung shuts his eyes tightly, these words stab his heart like sharpened daggers,

" So, thank you.  .  . for loving me, I won't ask for forever, that shit never exists in reality." Jeongguk laughs a little, finding his own humor funny.

Thank you----for holding me in your arms,

"Thank you for tonight," he smiles a little and Taehyung feels his heart crack open,

"for enjoying this moment with me, I guess it is my fault---I thought maybe this moment could last forever," Jeongguk is most probably trying hard to smile,

"I will not bother you anymore, whatever it was---trying or pretending, both ends here," Jeongguk steps a little forward and Taehyung lifts his gaze, feels his a wave of rush flowing all over his body when their eyes meet----Jeongguk never looked away from him, this all time.
