— kth

black.
that's all i see and boy do i like it.
dark, bland and perfectly reflects my life.

all i want to do is to fall in deep and just never wake up.
the voices just screaming at me, criticising me.
my cuts begging and pleading for me to add more and stain my wrist with lines.

i feel weight on my right hand.
using all my energy, i squeeze the hand.

— 3rd

tae's eyes flutter open as he blinks his sleep away.
the older smiles softly and places a small kiss on his forehead.
the ivory haired male rests his forehead on tae's.

"how are you feeling baby?" yoongi whispers as he settles on the bed.

"b-better. i just wanna go h-home and c-cuddle." tae blushes a little.

yoongi chuckles. "soon baby."

the rest of the boys walk in one by one with utmost gloomy features on their faces.
jimin walks over to his best friend and hugs the shit out of him, but careful enough not to hurt the poor, fragile boy.

tae smiles slightly and hugs back weakly but gasps when he feels warm liquid going down his back.

"m-minnie?" tae whispers.

jimin pulls away and sighs, looking down at his fingers.

"i was so w-worried a-about you tae. n-never do t-that." jimin says softly whilst caressing tae's cheek.

tae looks down but doesn't respond.
yoongi rubs tae's hand with his thumb to soothe the poor boy.
the grey haired male sighs softly and snuggles into yoongi for warmth.

~ a few days later : tae has been discharged ~

"we should tell him you know." jeongguk says.

the boys were now settled in the living room, discussing about the counseling for tae.
only tae wasn't present and they needed to notify the boy.
namjoon and yoongi nod in agreement.

"he needs to know." namjoon replies.

"who needs to know what?" a sudden voice startles the boys.

tae walks over and settles down beside yoongi.
giving him a little kiss on the cheek, the young latter focuses his attention on the leader.
his doe eyes filled with pain, sorrow and curiosity.

"well...um..." jin stutters.

"the manager ever believes that you should go for counseling and we agree." namjoon says.

tae blinks his eyes. "oh."

the boys flinch at how monotoned his voice sounded.
tae's face blank as ever and the amount of hurt on his face was mind blowing.
worry crawls through all their veins as they see tae's hurt but blank expression to the news.

"i m-mean just t-try today and s-see if you want to c-continue." namjoon curses himself for stuttering.

"oh okay. when do we go?" tae asks.
