Third person P.O.V
"Seriously man.. I never thought that Hyungsik is the mastermind behind this all." Hoseok chuckled closing the file that he made while searching for Kim.
His friend chuckled and shrugged his shoulders.
"We can't see what's coming dude. Earth is always spinning~." With that, both burst into laughter but Hoseok suddenly fell silent.
"But that innocent boy suffered a lot because of his evil father. He never deserved that all. Jungkook forgiving that old freak is still a question for me." His friend nodded in agreement. They all knew that Jungkook did forgive the other but no one knew the reason.
"Forget it. Just chill. You are coming to the party this weekend? There will be many girls?" His friend said with a mischievous smile and Hoseok rolled his eyes.
"Why not." He laughed a little as he deleted the pictures of Taehyung and all related stuff to him that he gathered while privately digging into the case.
"The case is closed." He mumbled when the files were finally deleted by his phone but he was happy that through this case, he did find a new friend in form of Jin.
Jungkook was staring from time to time at Taehyung who had his head resting over the car window. Yoongi was driving their car as Namjoon and Jin were in Taehyung's car, going somewhere.? Well...
"Are you tired?" Jungkook asked in a soft voice and Taehyung slightly tilted his head with a pout.
"Running a marathon because a certain someone was trying to sneak away silently, yeah I am tired." The sarcasm was too cute to feel anything and Jungkook bit his lower lip to stop himself from laughing because for now, Taehyung was looking a little mad.
Once they left the airport, with Taehyung in Jungkook's arms, the former started showing a bit of attitude but honestly, Jungkook was still liking that salty Tata.
But when he asked Taehyung where he wanted to go, his reply gave him all the happiness he was in need.
"With you."
Those two words were enough to make Jungkook the happiest man on the planet earth and he happily declared that they will be going to Jeon's mansion... of course.
The mansion was quite distant from the airport so they were still on the road and Taehyung was now sulking with tiredness. After feeling all the things settled down, his body was in need of some rest that he didn't give before.
Jungkook scooted more closer to the younger and patted his shoulder.
"Here. Have a nap. We are still half an hour away from the mansion." Taehyung gasped dramatically but huffed in the end.
"My back is aching." He complained with a pout but his tired look was clear on his face.
Jungkook sighed and in the next moment he dragged the blond gently towards himself as now Taehyung was practically sitting over his lap.
"What th-"
"Shh.. have a nap. You look too tired Tae." Jungkook softly said as his one hand protectively settled Taehyung on his lap causing his both legs to dangle to a side and his side was leaning over Jungkook's chest.
Jungkook started massaging his back gently while nuzzling his nose in his blond locks. Taehyung felt so contented by the actions and leaned more to his chest, feeling the other so close... very very close.
"Thank you Kookie." Taehyung mumbled feeling his eyes closing in the gentle warmth of the older. Within a minute or two, his breathing become steady as his body was totally relaxed.
Yoongi smiled as he saw from the rearview mirror. The way Jungkook was looking at sleeping Taehyung, it felt like he was looking at his universe. He felt so good seeing Jungkook that much happy for the very first time.
"Didn't I tell you before, it was your luck that he arrived at the right time." He finally said to Jungkook, who without tearing away his gaze from Taehyung replied.
"Yeah.. I am lucky.. indeed."
Jungkook picked up the still-sleeping boy very carefully and entered his mansion with a smile, surprising all of his men. He walked straight to his room and placed Taehyung on the bed. He realized that the other was still wearing his office suit, his dark green coat with the white shirt was matching with his complexion.
He thought to remove the coat but finally decided to leave the other rest for a bit more, right when he untangled his arms from Taehyung's body and turned back to leave, a small tug on his sleeve stopped him again. He turned back to see Taehyung looking at him with half-closed eyes.
"Where are you going?" His a bit hoarse voice asked out and Jungkook felt his lips twitch at the way the younger was looking at him.
He sat on one knee and gently caressed Taehyung's hand with a smile.
"You think I can go anywhere now when you are here.. with me?" The way Taehyung's ear turned red was the scene that made him laugh wholeheartedly. His very unique laughter echoed in the dark walls of his room, which was always gloomy.
Taehyung sat up, his eyes fixed on the other's bunny teeth, heart thumping in joy at the unique voice of the other. He also smiled unconsciously, feeling contended.
"Your laughter is beautiful.. you should laugh more." Taehyung blabbered out and Jungkook's smile faded when his gaze fell on the adorable human looking at him with a smile.
"If you stay with me, I will definitely laugh more.. the thing I actually forgot years ago," Jungkook said, eyes fixed on Taehyung's soft ones.
Taehyung quickly averted his gaze, his cheeks heating up and he was sure that he must be looking like a tomato. So he decided to change the topic.
"Um- I- I don't feel comfortable in these. Can you give me some clothes?" He said, pointing towards his very formal clothes. Jungkook also felt his ear burning and he nodded his head, got up from the floor, and went to his closet to grab some soft clothes. His eyes wandered around his closet for a whole minute, finding something more colorful and soft for the blond but sighed when he found nothing like that.
He grabbed some black sweatpants and a loose black shirt.. well all was black in the closet.
Taking the clothes in his hands, he felt a memory flash, how the other had to remain in his marriage clothes for days when he-
"Kookie?" A voice interrupted his thoughts and a pang of new guilt built up in his chest when he walked towards the bed.
"Here.. I- I don't have many collections." He said apologetically and Taehyung nodded his head with a smile.
"No worries. These are still comfortable." Taehyung replied and quickly rushed to the bathroom after confirming that.
Jungkook sat there with the guilt, he started fidgeting with his fingers like a scolded child.
After about 10 minutes, Taehyung came out of the room.. his hair was wet, showing that he had a shower. His cheeks were red as he finally realized what he had done.
But when he saw Jungkook sitting on the bed while spacing out, he made his way toward him.
"Kookie? You ok?" He asked softly as he patted the other's shoulder a bit.
"I- I did so bad with you. You were... you were so alone in that small room, you were screaming for help... you- you," Jungkook choked on his sob and quickly covered his face with his hands.
Taehyung's heart clenched at that. He did suffer too much back there but he really wanted to forget about that. He can't blame Jungkook for that all.
"Kookie, look at me. Please." He softly mumbled taking a seat beside the other, facing the crying male.
Jungkook slowly removed his hands and Taehyung wasted no time and leaned forward to press his lips over his forehead.
Jungkook's breath hitched when he felt soft and warm lips over his skin. He was surprised by the action but remained silent as Taehyung slowly pulled back, hands cupping his cheeks softly.
"I said before and I am repeating. I don't blame you. The past is gone and I don't want to live in that. Please try to forget it like I am trying. But if you- if you continue remembering those days like that, none of us will be able to forget about that and it will only hurt us. And I don't want it." Taehyung gently explained, directly looking into Jungkook's eyes.
Jungkook closed his eyes and a shaky sigh left his lips to which Taehyung reacted by hugging him tightly.
"I don't feel good, seeing you like that. Please don't cry Kookie.. please." Jungkook bit his lip again so harshly as all the scenes repeated in his eyes, how the innocent boy screamed in pain when he punched him, all those agonizing screams were haunting his mind, drowning him in the deep abyss.
He couldn't help but nuzzle in Taehyung's neck, sobbing badly, hands clutching over Taehyung's shirt tightly.
"I am sorry Tae... I am so sorry.. I won't do anything to hurt you again... never again." Taehyung smiled through his tears and patted Jungkook's back.
"Then promise me that you won't cry like this because of those days. Never blame yourself for what happened. See the bright side, if it hadn't happened that way, we wouldn't be able to meet each other." Taehyung stated, trying to soothe the raven-haired, and pulled back to see Jungkook looking at him with so many emotion-filled eyes.
Jungkook was thinking, how someone can be so optimistic about such things?
Taehyung shook his head and wiped his and Jungkook's tears quickly and sniffed.
"I just thought, how did you find out about me being.. you know.. Tata?" Taehyung was always curious but never got the chance to ask and Jungkook sadly smiled recalling the eventful night, so painful night of his life.
"I heard you singing that song... that your mother sang for you." Taehyung nodded his head and his eyes roamed here and there as he also recalled the night.
Jungkook was again spacing out and Taehyung didn't like that a bit.
"Kookie~ I am hungry. Are you planning to starve me?" Shaking his head, he plopped back on the mattress, and whined cutely, Jungkook snapped out of his thoughts, and he chuckled when he saw Taehyung sprawled on the bed with his wet hair spread on the sheets.
He got up and ruffled those wet hair affectionately.
"Dry them up little baby.. and dinner would be ready in little time." Taehyung blushed at the name but turned on his side to hide his face as Jungkook went to the door.
"Any special dish?" Jungkook asked and Taehyung smiled again.
"You know well." Jungkook grinned and quickly rushed outside to order his cook to make Japchae for Taehyung.
Taehyung was playing with his fork after finishing up the whole plate of his favorite dish. Yoongi decided to have his dinner in his room, so as not to disturb the two young ones. While Namjoon was nowhere to be found, um- something suspicious, right?
"Ice cream?" Jungkook asked and Taehyung beamed in happiness, vigorously nodding his head.
They enjoyed ice cream in blankets because Taehyung said his back was still aching. At his request, they were watching a movie.. a cliche romantic one.
Jungkook kept glancing over at the younger, trying to believe that it wasn't a dream while Taehyung could feel his gaze but let him be, too shy to say anything.
Everything was quick for both but Taehyung was still feeling very satisfied. He felt like it was bound to happen and the way it happened, doesn't matter now.
He slightly leaned over Jungkook for some warmth and felt that Jungkook went stiff for a second before relaxing. They enjoyed the movie, as Taehyung was giggling at the funny scenes while Jungkook felt his heart swell every time he heard that. They were almost at the end of the movie right when Taehyung's phone buzzed and he frowned when he saw Jin's contact. He accepted the call and the older said something to him.
Jungkook saw how the phone slipped from Taehyung's hand and his face went pale.
"Tae? Hey, what happened?" He asked and shook the blond with a worried face but Taehyung was frozen.
When Jungkook saw the call still going on, he picked up the phone.
"What happened?" His authoritative voice boomed and Jin told him.
He felt a lump in his throat as he looked back at Taehyung who was sitting like a statue and finally said a few words after so long.
"Can't I be happy?"
