Jungkook couldn't even move from his place. He is not someone who usually throws tantrums on getting punishments. He never disobeys his hyungs in matter like that. But he just can't kneel down today; his knees are bruised badly to even walk!
And he is too scared to even talk with Taehyung about it. If he says that he is injured, then Taehyung will never make him kneel down. But he will start with his questions and if he says he got hurt while running, he is surely gonna get an earful from his hyung as he knows Taehyung had already told him not to do such childish works that can made him injured. And he can't tell the truth anyway! So he decided to stay quiet in that very moment...
Taehyung glared at the boy in front of him who was for the first time hesitating to obey his any command like this.
Tae: I said to kneel down, Jungkook. Why you are still stilting huh?
Jungkook flinched and slowly stood up, looking at him with his teary eyes, more like pleading silently.
Taehyung was a bit surprised. He knows Jungkook very well, he never tries to throw tantrums about the punishments when he knows he is worthy of it. And more importantly, it's just kneeling down, that's not harsh punishment for the younger, is it?
Tae: Do you have the intention to waste more time standing like a statue here?' he asked coldly and Jungkook shook his head looking down, but didn't move a bit! Taehyung sighed frustratingly.
Tae: What the heck is wrong with this boy! Jungkook? Are you even getting me?' he said running his fingers on his hairs annoyingly.
Jungkook didn't answer as usual. He is too scared of his Tae hyung to tell about his injuries and that is also right now when his mood is in worst! Taehyung frowned when he observed the uneasiness on his facial expression. Something is not right with this boy, what it could be?
Tae: What happened to you Jungkook?' he asked way more gently than before and that caught Jungkook's attention fully. He looked at his hyung with tearful eyes and sniffled softly before whispering.
Jungkook: I-I...I don't want to kneel down hyung...'
Tae's eyes blazed hearing him, 'What do you mean by that?'
And Jungkook felt like banging his head on the wall and die! He was trying to say the different thing, but in fear it just came out in the wrong way and made it look like he is rejecting his brother's order here!
Taehyung crossed his arms over his chest and shot a glare to younger, 'I asked you something Kim Jungkook. What do you mean by 'you don't want', hmm? From when you started giving your opinion on deciding your punishments, huh?' his voice is damn calm. Jungkook felt like to run away from here but his feet are frozen in place!
Jungkook gulped hardly and tried to take back his words, 'H-hyung....I didn't m-mean it...I mean I d-didn't wanted t-to say t-that...' he shuttered miserably and of course failed to give a suitable answer to Taehyung. Tae frowned his eyebrows dangerously.
Tae: Then what you meant really?' he added some pressure on the word 'really'.
Jungkook: I-I....c-can I get a-anything else hyung?' he finally gathered enough courage to speak.
Tae: Like?
Jungkook: Any other punishment hyung....please not kneeling down.' He pleaded softly and Taehyung find it very unlikely to Jungkook. Why his brother is behaving in this way?
Tae: What happened to you Jungkook? Why are you behaving this weird today?
Jungkook bit his lower lips, 'I-I'm fine hyung. Just not do this please?'
Tae: But why? You never asked it before and neither had you disobeyed any punishment given to you. Why now?' there is a hint of concern on his voice, that made Jungkook guilty for lying to him like that. But he kept on acting like that.
Tae: Are you bothered somehow? You can talk with me, Kookie.' He is much softer than before. He must be really worried for his younger.
Jungkook: N-nothing hyung.'
Tae: there is something. Come on kook! Tell me if there is any reason-
Jungkook: I just don't want to kneel down hyung. WHY DON'T YOU UNDERSTAND?' he burst out out suddenly and immediately regretted for it once he understood what he just did!
He just let out all of his frustration of the day on Tae hyung! Holy goodness! He shot up his look on Tae's face and saw the ultimate fury on it! He is dead for sure tonight...
-Well, that's enough!' Taehyung finally blasted after a long silence...
Taehyung stood up aggressively; he had enough of him for tonight! He tried to get the answer from him by hook or crook, but looks like this boy has took a vow to not to open up in front of him. And that yelling...That took his anger and worries in a different level of vehemence!
Taehyung walked towards the shaking afraid boy and his each step made the boy tremble. He scares his Tae hyung like a monster when he is angry!
Taehyung grabbed Jungkook's wrist harshly and slightly twisted it making Jungkook winch in pain. Jungkook's eyes turned glossy once again as he looked at his brother with painful scared eyes. Taehyung felt a sharp pain on his heart, but he ignored it anyway.
Tae: I had enough of you Kim Jungkook. I know I was tough, but I also tried to be gentle and all that for only one thing. I just wanted to know what is bothering you. but that doesn't mean you will yell on your hyung without telling the reason of your frustration!' he pulled Jungkook towards his bed and he himself sat in edge of it, he made Jungkook stand in front of him and looked at his crying face with fire eyes, 'I know something is going wrong with you. I will ignore your disrespect on me for this time, if you just give me honest answer and it will be best for you. I'm giving you a chance Jungkook. Freaking answer me!'
Jungkook just sobbed and looked down, he is still being too hard to break. Taehyung sighed annoyingly and finally decided to go on the harder way.
Tae: Well, you called it for yourself then.' He sighed and suddenly pulled Jungkook over his lap. Jungkook landed on Taehyung's knees by his stomach with a sudden push up and at once he understood what is gonna happen now! He tried to get off from Taehyung's hold, but that hold is unforgivable! Taehyung hold him in place with his left hand and another hand just went straight up to air and...
~SMACK!' it landed on Jungkook's rear with a huge force, making Jungkook yelped in pain and his eyes bowled up instantly!
Jungkook: AAAAH! HYUNGGGG!!' he cried out but who is Tae to hear him now? He kept smacking Jungkook's bottom in an unmerciful way. He is too angry with Jungkook and that's why each smacks are powerful than ever.
Taehyung didn't give a chance to breathe to the poor horrified boy as he started right away without any warm ups and kept the pace fast...Jungkook was having a hard time to control himself. He tried to kick his leg on ground and Tae locked them with one of his feet! Jungkook whimpered but Tae ignored it anyway...
Smack Smack Smack Smack
Jungkook: H-Hyung...AH! Please! Please! OWWW! Sorry...s-so sorry...AAH! P-please s-stop hyung-ie....Ouch-' Jungkook cried his heart out and pleaded to Taehyung to stop. He squirmed in his hold, but Tae tightened his grip around him.
Tae: Stop struggling Jungkook. You brought it by yourself.' He placed two smacks more and Jungkook jolted forward.
Jungkook: AGH! I-it's hurting hyung-ie...p-please!
Tae: It meant (smack) to be hurt! (smack) Or else how you (smack) will learn huh? (smack) My words isn't enough (smack) to you learn, is it? (smack)
Jungkook: Ouch! Ahh...please s-stop hyung...I- Oww! I l-learned...Please- I didn't mean to disobey or disrespect you! AH! I swear hyung-
But Tae ignored it until he reached to twenty! After his twentieth hit, he finally gave a break to his hand and Jungkook's butt. Jungkook was sobbing uncontrollably laying limp on Tae's lap. Tae hyung put his hand on Jungkook's back and asked him in his cold voice_
Tae: Will you answer me now or still need some pushes?
Jungkook sobbed louder, he is in so much pain to talk properly now.
Tae sighed tiredly, 'There should be a limit of being stubborn Jungkook! You are crossing it! Or you don't believe me enough to open up, huh?'
Jungkook shook his head vigorously, 'N-no hyung...I-I trust you....I promise!'
Tae made Jungkook stand up, 'Then why you are not opening up to me? Why this stubbornness?'
Jungkook sniffed and scrunched his nose looking down. Taehyung sighed tiredly and rubbed his temple in frustration. He is so done with him. Now Taehyung himself need some time to cool down...
He pointed the corner of the room and said calmly, 'Go and stand there facing the wall.'
Jungkook pouted sadly as he didn't get any comfort- not like he expected any, but still...he just obeyed him silently. Taehyung stood up and walked out of the room to cool himself down, leaving the poor bunny boy alone in the corner.
