HE USED TO LOVE ME..
Chapter 38...
As her mom cried uncontrollably, Yeri turned and saw the state he was in. She knew something was wrong. She felt her eyes water.
Because she knew it was about Jungkook and she felt bad because somehow, she thought that was her fault. She didn't see Jungkook since her 5 years old and she was so much younger at the time but she knew how Taehyung and him were in love with each other.
A tear escaped from her eye as she couldn't take her gaze from Taehyung.
Tae closed his eyes and took a deep breath. He had to pull himself together. As he was looking for something to wipe away his tears, the man next to him handed him a handkerchief. He stared at it and looked at him. The guy smiled.
- Take it.
Taehyung chuckled and took it gladly. He wiped his wet cheeks and sniffed.
- You are very emotional. Are you close to the married? He asked.
Tae: I am Eunho's ex husband. He said a bit amused of the situation.
The other man was pretty shocked.
- Oh wao. What are you doing at your ex's wedding??
Tae: He invited me. We are in good terms so it's okay. Plus I have to look after my daughter. She is there.
- Oh yeri? I meet her often when I go to Eunho but I never met her mother.
Tae: Well. Your lucky day, it's me. Hahaha.
He left a little chuckle and sighed.
Tae: You. Are you close to the married?
- I am one of Eunho's bestfriends .
Taehyung turned to him and raised his eyebrows.
Tae: How come I never saw you before? I think if I did, I would remember. Haha.
- I used to live abroad. So it's normal. Can I know your name?
Taehyung lowered his head and giggled.
Tae: Maybe after the ceremony.
- Tss tss. Hahaha. Okay. I'm looking forward to know it.
Tae: mmmm.
Then, they stayed quiet. The ceremony ended some minutes after.
They all went to the huge hall where the party would be held.
Yeri went to hug Tae and ran to play with her cousins.
Tae: Don't fall!
Yeri: *nod*
Tae laughed slightly and took seat at his table. He pulled out his phone and began to check his messages when suddenly, someone sat in front of him.
He raised his eyes.
- Waaa. We are at the same table. What a coincidence.
Tae: I see that. He said putting back his phone inside his bag.
- So.. What is your name?
Tae: Kim Taehyung sir.
- Oh. Beautiful name which suit well your beautiful face.
They looked at each other and bursted in laugh.
- Okay that was..
Tae: cliché. Hahaha.
- Sorry. Hahaha.
Tae: Mmm. What about yours?
- Park Changho. Nice to meet you.
Tae: Should I call you hyung?
CH : I am 32.
Tae: Okay then. Hyung. Hahaha.
CH: that suits your mouth. I love it.
Tae: what a flirt. Seriously.
CH: So, Kim Taehyungshi. What are you doing for living?
Tae: I am a copywriter.
CH: oh wao.
Tae: And you?
CH: The best lawyer of the country.
Tae: I see. Humble.
CH: I am just confident in myself.
Tae: That's good. Hahaha.
CH: that sucks to be alone at a wedding right? It's boring.
Tae: Yeah. I will go back home soon.
CH: or,
Tae: What?
CH: Or I can be your partner for the day.
Tae: Mmm. No. Not interested.
CH: Come on. Don't leave me alone here with all those couples. Don't you prefer having fun with me than going home alone?
Tae: Hah.
CH: Mmm?
Taehyung rolled his eyes and chuckled.
Tae: Okay. You'll be my partner for the day then.
Changho smiled proudly and got closer to Taehyung.
Taehyung smiled softly and they began to talk. Got to know each other better.
They ate in a good mood.
Taehyung didn't even notice the sun setting. He, who said he had to be back home before getting dark. Well, this new meeting would completely changed his plans.
Tae: I can't believe you made me drink that. Eww.
CH: This is good for health. Hahaha. But reassure me you are not drunk?
Tae: No. I mean not yet. Hahaha.
Changho stared at the boy and smiled. He grabbed his hand.
Tae: ah?
CH: Shall we dance?
Tae: I can't dance.
CH : Neither can I. He said and pulled him on the dance floor.
Eunho turned and spotted the couple. He taped his wife 's arm and smiled.
EH: Look.
- Only Changho can push Taehyung to do such a thing . Hahaha.
EH: I am glad he is having fun..
Changho held Taehyung 's waist gently and pulled him close to his chest. Taehyung gasped and wrapped his hands slowly around the boy's neck. Then, they began to move following the rhythm of the song.
CH: see? This is not that hard.
Taehyung 's cheeks flushed. He lowered his head and chuckled.
Tae: You hold me too tight.
Changho giggled and made Taehyung turn.
Then, they stared at each other a long moment.. Changho leaned slowly..
Taehyung shut his eyes making the older chuckle. He just connected their foreheads..
CH: why did you close your eyes?
Tae: Ah?
CH: will you let me kiss you that easily at our first meeting? I thought you would make me wait until the third date at least. Hahaha
Taehyung pushed Changho lightly all embarassed and was about to walk away but the latter held his hand and patted his hair gently.
Tae: I should leave now. I am tired. He said as he went to talk to Eunho.
Changho just looked at him and sighed.
Tae congratulated the newly weds and said good bye to his daughter who will stay with Eunho's parents.
Tae: Be wise okay?
Yeri: " Are you okay? "She signed making Tae smile.
Tae: You saw me crying?
Yeri nodded.
Tae: don't worry for me honey. I am fine. Have fun with your cousins. Bye.
They hugged and Taehyung walked out of the hall. Chango hesitated but went after him.
Tae was about to enter his car when..
CH: TAEHYUNG!
Tae: Yes?
CH: Can I have your number?
Tae: why?
CH: Isn't it obvious? I want o meet you again.
Taehyung stared at the boy a moment and licked his lips.
Tae: what about ending the evening at my place ?
CH: ah? Want to eat ramyeon?
Taehyung bite his bottom lip.
Tae: You can just follow me.
He said and entered the car.
Changho rolled his tongue with a smirk and got in his car. Then, he followed Tae.
They got in front of Taehyung 's building some minutes after.
Tae: Shall we go?
Changho nodded. They walked to the elevator and as soon as the door closed, Tae turned to Changho and pulled him by his tie into a deep kiss.
Changho was flustered and kinda surprised but kissed back. He held the back of Taehyung 's head and groaned.
Taehyung bite his lips and slide his tongue inside the boy's mouth.
CH: mmmmm~
Tae: Hah~
Some minutes after, they were in the flat, kissing each other as if their lives depended on it.
Taehyung sat on Changho's laps and began to unbotton his shirt while the later kissed his neck leaving Hickeys everywhere.
But when Tae looked behind him, he saw " Love at first sight" on the table.
That blocked him right away because Jungkook 's face passed through his mind.
Tae: fuck.. I.. I am sorry hyung.. I..
He sat properly and rubbed his face in frustration.
Tae: I am sorry. For.. Wasting your time. I just.. can't.
Changho looked at him with round eyes and smiled.
CH: It's okay. Don't worry.
Tae: I understand if you don't want to meet me again.
CH: What? Of course not. We will have to have an official date. Hahaha.
Taehyung chuckled and sighed.
CH: an ex?
Tae: what?
CH: is it about someone from your past?
Tae: ......
CH: You can talk to me you know?
Tae: I am the one who ended it..
CH: Ah?
Tae: Why am I hurt when I am the one who called hin and said that we should break up?
CH: ...why?
Tae: Because I felt insecure..he was so far and I began to be paranoid. I couldn't trust him.. Maybe you ignore it but, Your friend Eunho *chuckles* cheated on me.
CH: .....
Tae: I have trust issues.. Even if I know he is not like him.. They are totally opposite...still, I couldn't help but find anything he was doing and saying suspicious. Why did it take him so long to pick up, to answer my texts...
Changho licked his lips and pulled Taehyung in a hug.
Taehyung bursted in tears in his arms.
Tae: I am sorry hyung.. That is inappropriate to talk about that to you..
CH: For you to move on, you have to say good bye to the past and to evacuate everything. So it's okay.. You can cry as long as you want.
Tae: hahhh.
Changho patted his back gently and kissed his hair.
Tae: *sniff*
Taehyung cried during a long hour and ended up falling asleep. He was indeed tired. Changho carried him to his room and lied him on the bed.
CH: I hope you will get over him soon.. He said and kissed his forehead.
Then, he covered him with a blanket and grabbed his jacket. He left a little note with his number on the table and left.
" I am waiting for your call ***********. I spent a marvelous day with you.
Changho "
..........
............... The next monday
.........................
Taehyung woke up soon because of work. He couldn't be late.
He took a quick breakfast alone. Yeri was still at her grandparent's house.
Then, he drove to work..on the way, he turned on his phone which was charging all night.
Tae: missing calls.. 33 missing calls??? From Jimin, Wung, yoongi, Hoseok??? What the..
He arrived at the company a while after and got welcomed by an irritated Jimin.
JM: Ya.
Tae: why did you guys call me so many times? He asked as he got inside.
JM: why didn't you pick up?? You..
Tae: we will talk later okay? I have so much work.
JM: Tae!
Taehyung got in the elevator and arrived at his floor. Everyone looked at him.
WG: Hyung.. Why didn't you pick up?
- yeah.
Tae: wae wae?
Tae walked to his office and stopped short when he noticed someone in Jungkook 's old office.
Tae: who is working in there??
- .......
JM: Listen to me! Aish!
Tae: Why is there someone...
The someone raised his eyes and met Taehyung 's.
The world stopped a moment..
.....................silence...................
JM: Yeah.
Taehyung shut his eyes. He thought he was hallucinating.
They all looked at him with sad eyes.
His heart sped up as he opened them. Jungkook stood up and opened the door. He has changed a lot.
Tae:.......
Taehyung 's breath got heavy. He held his bag tight and got in his office quickly.
JM: Hah.
JK: .........
Tae: Hahh... Inhale, exhale... He said with a trembling voice..
JM: He is just.. Very surprised.
JK: I guess so. Anyway. I need coffee. *chuckle*
Jimin smiled and nodded.
JK: I'll be right back. The boy said as he walked away.
WG: That will be akward from now on.. Uuuh.
Taehyung sat and pulled himself together. He couldn't believe , he just met Jungkook.
He didn't leave his office all the morning scared to have him face to face. And at noon, he sneaked out of there to eat.
He walked to the parking and ran into a familiar face.
Tae: Hyung?
CH: Hey.
He chuckled and approached him.
Tae: How did you know that I was working here?
CH: Eunho.
Tae: This little brat. Hahaha.
Ch: Yeah. So.. Shall we grab lunch together?
Tae: Mmm. S-
- Taehyung!
Taehyung 's body freeze. He gulped and turned around.
JK: Shall we go eat together?
Tae: A-ah?
CH: .....
JK: .......
Tae: Hum....
