Lost Memories (Taehyung x Jennie) [The Final Book]

◆ Eight ◆

I'm here...
At a dark warehouse...
There is a light...
A silhouette.
And...Taehyung?

I walked closer to them...
And as I walked closer, I'm able to watch...

How the silhouette pointed the gun at Taehyung.

"Ani!"
        I want to run and stop the silhouette but...I can't move...I am frozen.

"Taehyung-a! RUN!"
        I yelled but he's not able to hear me.

Taehyung raises his head, chin up and chest out...as if ready to catch any bullet from the gun.

"Just kill me...instead of her."
        Taehyung's words...

"Is he...pertaining to me?"

"You said...you love her...then at least...after killing me...don't bother her."
           Taehyung's voice bacame sweet...he was smiling at the silhouette, seems like it's fine for him to die just for me.

"Ani. You can't die...we still have our..."

"Kill me now...but before that, promise me you won't bother her again."
           His eyes...slowly teared up but as his tears dropped...

Everything turned slow...
He fell on the ground slowly...
I can't feel the coldness already.

I felt so scared as I saw him fell on the ground.

As I heard the sound of the gun shot...

"Hyung...promise me too...you would watch her for me."
        Taehyung talked to the phone before...

Another gun shot was addressed to him by the silhouette.

I just fell on the floor...
Kneeling down...
Watching everything...

"Taehyung-a..."

And I can't do anything...
For what I saw and just happened.

"Why can't we live together....forever?"

As I am crying on my knees...
I felt arms on the back of my head...

And I heard someone yelling my name...

"Jennie!"

"JENNIE!"

"JENNIE! WAKE UP! JEN..."
       I opened my eyes...
And I immediately saw...

Taehyung cupping my face...
Jisoo, Chaeyoung and Lisa startled and worried looking at me. Jin holding a towel, Jimin holding a basil of water and Jungkook giving Taehyung the thermometer.

I sat up...
I feel burning.

Everyone's eyes are on me.
I squinted my eyes to avoid the bright light of the room and I looked at everyone...it is tensing to see everyone looking dead panic on me.

"Jennie...you had a nightmare, don't you?"
         And upon Jin asking, I just remembered what happened.

I froze as I remembered....
That was just a nightmare...

"A such terrifying nightmare..."

Shivers was sent down to my spine as I rememebred everything that happened inside my nightmare.

"Someone died...
And I can't do anything but to watch..
And what's the most horrible thing?

The person that died...was the man that I love."

"Jennie."
       And Taehyung held my hand as I was literally not answering while wondering about the nightmare.

I looked at him...

"I don't know...someone...died...everyone's in panic to find someone...someone's missing...and inside my nightmare, all of you...can't see me nor hear me."
       I answered...
And my forehead started to ache, just like when I'm remembering some memories that my amnesia took away from me.

And my ear heard nothing but a ting...
A long ting sound...

I can see them, crouching infront of me, and they're talking but I can't hear until the ting sound started to fade.

"You're burning, Jennie."
        Jisoo touched my neck and my forehead to check.

I'm sweating and I feel like I'm burning...
Fever.

"Jennie, are you fine?"
           Taehyung asked, worries in his eyes.

I nodded...and creases my forehead after Lisa checked my temperature.

"Don't worry, it's just a nightmare, noona."
           Jungkook cheered up and smiled at me.

"That's right, nothing's gonna happen."
           Jimin reassured and smiled at me as well.

Jin just winked at me to cheer me up.
But honestly...I feel dizzy and drowzy.

"Otteoke? We have a performance tomorrow, eonnie."
        Suddenly, Chaeyoung panicked and in a habit, she bit her nails while looking at me.

"Gwaenchana. Perhaps, some rest would make me feel better."
       I answered and was about to lie back again but...

"But feeling better is enough, you should be better, literally better."
         Yaehyung butted in and scolded me a bit.

I looked at him and answered...

"That's fine."
          His brows furrowed as I nut headedly answered him.

"Then, you still have several of time to rest, our performances are in the evening. We'll make our way there during early noon, then, practices after an hour lunch break. Then, the performances."
           Jin informed, he knew the schedule since they are also participating.

"Then, we shall leave you hear. Take care, Jennie. Don't think about the nightmare you had earlier, that's just a nightmare."
        And the boys left our room.

"Eonnie, get well. We can't be a black pink without you. Besides that, I hate seeing you like that, being so sick. It hurts me."
        Lisa pouted and caressed my hands before walking out of the door.

"Take care. Take care of her, Taehyung."
        Jisoo demanded.

"Get enough sleep, eonnie. And get enough time of rest. Saranghae."
         Then, Chaeyoung closed the door.

So, I lied to my bed back.
Taehyung is still looking at me thickly.

"Have some rest. And I need to watch you, Jennie. You mightnhave another nightmare."
       Seriously, he spoke while caressing my hair.

"I'm afraid...I'm afraid to have a nightmare again..."

"Please, lay with me. I'm afraid that I might have another nightmare...jebal."
         With weak voice, I wished and pleaded him. He didn'y bother asking...

He just did my command and he hugged me from behind.

"This way is more warmer and comfortable..."

"Taehyung-a...
You can't die.
We're going to last until eternity, right?"
