So like, can we appreciate Jungkook's long hair?

"Hi little one, what's your name?" the lady asks. Jimin looks up at her with big eyes, trying to remember her name.

Mrs. Adams?

"J-Jimin," he answers, hugging his stuffed animal tightly to his chest. The man next to Mrs. Adams looks scary, he's probably her husband. But Jimin doesn't like him. He doesn't like anyone here.

"Where's papa?" he asks, still confused why he got dragged away from his father, even though he said he didn't want to. The police took him to the station afterward, he has been driving ever since. He doesn't know where he is or where he's going. He's so scared.

"Your papa is here," the woman smiles, pointing at the man behind her. Jimin frowns.

"That's not my papa," he states.

The couple shares a look. Probably worried.

The female sighs before smiling, "I know, but we are family now, okay?"

It has been almost a month and Taehyung hasn't gotten better, mentally speaking. Jungkook has been living with him every day since Taehyung tried to kill himself... again. 

He was at school, suddenly a girl came running down the stairs screaming for help. Taehyung was about to jump from the rooftop.

Luckily, Jungkook reached him in time. He wanted to seek professional help, but for some reason, he felt that Taehyung would feel uncomfortable about that.

Now, he's sitting on the couch, the brunette's head resting on his lap. Taehyung fell asleep there and Jungkook can't hold himself back from staring the other down.

He's getting better physically since Jungkook has 'forced' him to eat, making him a meal three times a day. Jungkook has totally ignored his friends and only spent time with Taehyung. He doesn't know why, but he wants to care for the elder.

Maybe he did right from the start, he was just too cocky to notice.

He remembers the times where he bumped into Taehyung, giving the brunette an extra glance as he just continued down the hall like he didn't just collide with the most popular guy in the school.

And yeah sure, Jungkook is cocky, cold and rude... but he still has a heart and he loves that he's not under parents' or friends' gaze when he's with Taehyung. On the contrary, he does keep a low profile at school. 

Though, right now, it's horrible to be with the elder. It's not good for Jungkook's heart seeing Taehyung like this.

They barely know each other, yet Jungkook still feels his stomach take a turn every time he thinks about where Jimin is now.

Christmas is coming around, and Jungkook starts wondering what he should buy for the elder. Then it hits him. He knows the perfect gift.

"Here," Jungkook sits on the bed beside Taehyung, holding a glass of water.

"Thanks," the brunette answers while reaching for it. He gulps it all in one go, sighing loudly in relief.

Jungkook is currently fixing the sheets they are sitting on, giving Taehyung the time to observe his moves.

"Thank you," he mumbles and Jungkook looks up confused.

"You already said that Tae," the younger giggles.

"No, I mean... thank you f-for being here and helping me out. I would have been dead by now otherwise..." he looks down, fumbling with his slender fingers. "I-I feel less lonely."

Suddenly, he feels a warm palm on his cheek, Jungkook's thump rubbing the tanned skin.

"You're welcome... I'm sorry," he says.

They just sit like that for a while, enjoying the silence in the room. Taehyung has finally gotten away from his father, meaning he won't have to get raped by elder men anymore.

But he can't help but feel a pang of fear as Jungkook leans in, their faces only inches apart. He gulps and closes his eyes, letting the younger seal their lips together.

Jungkook's hand finds its way to the back of Taehyung's head, deepening the kiss. Taehyung gasps as Jungkook forces his tongue inside before grabbing around the raven's neck.

Taehyung is soon on Jungkook's lap, kissing deeply.

The elder tips his head to the side to get better access, his hands running through the black locks. The lewd sounds of their mouths moving together fills the room.

This feels different from what Taehyung has tried before. It's not forced or rough, it's calm and caring, making his entire body heat up.

Suddenly, a feeling of guilt hits his stomach making him pull away from the kiss and look down. He tries to stand but Jungkook grabs him.

"Hey, what's wrong?" the younger asks.

"Let me go," Taehyung answers.

"No, Tae... tell me," Jungkook pushes it.

Taehyung bites his lips and shuts his eyes tightly.

"I can't do it..." he mumbles. Jungkook frowns and once again cares for the other's cheek, waiting for him to continue.

Taehyung suddenly feels his tears rushing to the corner of his eye, escaping their way down his face.

"I c-can't be happy... I-I can't be happy without him," he sobs. He misses Jimin so much. So, so much it makes his heart squeeze painfully, his body trembling.

Jungkook immediately pulls the elder into a hug, rocking him back and forth. God, it hurts.
