Taehyung's  P.O.V.

"You're right, I don't like you."

I saw as her expression turned into sorrow, her eyes dulled. She gulped, tears formed in her eyes but she didn't spill them. She looked down, her hair covering her face, I couldn't see her face. She nodded and I saw as she wiped her eyes before those tears could flow down.

"I don't like you," I repeated myself, trying to convey my message to her.

I don't like her.

I don't think I can just like her. She looked up, her eyes filled with tears and this time a tear escaped her eye. I took a step forward and wiped her tear with my thumb and didn't remove my hand from her face.

"I love you."

Her head snapped in my direction. Her eyes brightened like they just came back to life.

Her eyes wide, mouth parted. "W-What?" She breathed out in disbelief, I smiled and removed my glasses then put them in my pocket.

"I don't like you, what I feel for you is nowhere near like, it's a lot more than like. I had liked you from the moment I have set my eyes on you, I tried to move on but you were just so irresistible. That turned into something bigger and stronger, I was afraid that you wouldn't reciprocate my feelings but I was wrong. I didn't lie to Jimin, I don't like you, I love you, so much that it hurts."

Tears fell from her eyes and I panicked but stopped when I saw a bright smile on her face, that smile which makes her glow, that beautiful smile of her which makes me weak.

She wrapped her arms around my waist as she sobbed in my chest. I didn't hesitate to wrap my arms around her, one around her waist while I placed the other at the back of her head. I placed a kiss on her head and started stroking her hair, I sighed in content.

This is the moment I've been waiting for for so long.

Flashback

I was sitting in the library, reading a book when someone cleared their throat, "C-Can I sit here?" It was Rosé. I just nodded and focused back on reading.

After a while, I stretched my neck and suddenly my eyes went towards the window, my heart skipped a beat. There she was, looking beautiful as always, laughing with her friends.

Oh, how I wish I was there instead of her friends.

I always had a crush on Jennie, from the moment I had set my eyes on her, I knew I was a goner. Who wouldn't like her, she was just so beautiful, just seeing her smile makes my heart flutter.

When Jimin asked me to save Rosé from Jennie because he was being a coward and he didn't want to gain attention by saving her or else she would've been bullied more. I only agreed because I was getting a chance to look at her closely.

When I grabbed her wrist, I felt tingled run through my hand. She was glaring at me yet I found myself getting lost in her eyes.

"Let go of me, now!" She demanded and that's when I snapped back to reality and reluctantly let go of her wrist, instead, I held Rosé's wrist and dragged her.

My second encounter with her was when I was strolling around the back of the school's ground, I found her leaning against the wall, sleeping.

For half an hour, I just kept staring at her like a creep, trying to drink in her features, it was my first that I got to see her this close without any interruptions.

I was happy.

When the bell rang, I snapped out of my trance and decided to wake her up. I was lucky enough to the point that I made skin contact with her, though it would be nothing to others to me, it was everything, the feeling of her soft and small wrist against my hand made my heart flutter.

I felt ecstatic.

I was disappointed and sad at what she did to Rosé but for some reason, I couldn't stay angry at her. I saw how she turned dull gradually, I thought she wouldn't be affected by that incident but I didn't know her well to know what was happening to her, but whatever it was, it was bad.

I would secretly look at her from the window, how I wanted to comfort her, oh how I wanted to hold her and tell her I'm here for her but she barely knew about my existence.

One day, the Principal called me. I was nervous because I haven't done anything wrong to be called there. I entered his office and saw him beaming at me while a girl was sitting on the chair in front of him, her back facing me.

When she turned her head and locked eyes with me, my breath hitched, I was shocked and the news that the principal broke at me made me stumble a bit and I had to grab a chair to stable myself.

She's driving me crazy.

I wanted to hug the principal but refrained.

When she said that she wants to study at my house, that made my whole day. I was trying really hard to conceal my emotions in front of her because if I didn't I would freak her out. I thought she was going to be hard to handle but I was wrong. She wasn't like the Jennie I was used to seeing at school.

She was different.

She looked so cute when she got embarrassed that her stomach growled, I found that I liked it when she blushed, especially because of me.

That was the day I knew I had dug my grave deeper to the point where there's no returning.

The next day, I was looking forward to meeting her, I bumped into her but she didn't look okay. I was getting worried but I kept my concern to myself, she was spacing out so much and when I held her wrist, she winced.

I didn't hold her wrist too tightly and that just made me even more worried. Although I kept a blank face, internally I was screaming at myself to help her but I knew I couldn't, that's why I kept looking at her wrist.

That day when we reached home, her stomach growled again, she blushed adorably but then I noticed something which made me frown. I saw blood on her hand, I was horrified, I grabbed her hand and tugged her towards me. I had a slight idea from where she got the cut from, but I didn't want to believe it, I just couldn't, it broke me.

She wouldn't do something like this, right?

After bandaging her wrist, I cooked her something because she was hungry and also to avoid the subject, for now, I didn't want to pressure her. I first wanted to relax her around me then I'll ask her. I felt so satisfied when I fed her.

I don't know what got into me that I decided to eat the remaining soup from the same spoon as hers. I just hoped that she didn't notice my red ears, I was embarrassed yet happy.

The next day, I approached her house with my bicycle. I was afraid of her reaction to my bicycle, I didn't want to be judged but yet again, this girl continued to surprise me. When she hugged me from behind while I was paddling, I felt my heart beating fast, I could also feel her heart beating fast.

Maybe because it was her first time sitting on a bicycle.

When we reached school, the way she wasn't getting off the bicycle and that cute little pout that rested on her face made her look more adorable.

We entered school, I could hear whispers but what hurt me that she started avoiding me because of those whispers.

When school ended, I was angry, I wanted to leave her but I couldn't, my heart wasn't letting me, so when she walked out of her class, I followed her.

To my surprise, she entered the old music room, and then she started playing the piano flawlessly, running her fingers along with the keys smoothly, and to make things even better, she sang.

Her voice, oh that voice of hers, I could sit there for a whole day just listen to her singing.

I couldn't help but appreciate her, so I clapped. She was gaping at me while I took a seat beside her. I don't know what got into me but I found myself singing, something I wrote long ago.

After a while when I saw that we were both comfortable, I dropped the question that was bugging me and she doesn't know how much her answer relieved me.

After coming home, I had fun teaching her how to ride a bicycle. The fact that her feet couldn't reach the ground made her even more adorable in my eyes and I got the chance to almost have her in my arms, she sat at the front with her head almost touching my chest. Whenever she got scared that I would crash the bicycle, she would hide her face in my chest and I felt butterflies in my stomach.

Everything was going good after that, I openly showed my emotions to her because at this point it was becoming impossible to hide them from her. I fell deeper every day and I didn't regret it for a second.

But it was like calm before the storm.

Jimin came and destroyed everything, I really didn't lie to him when I said I don't like her, I fucking love her.

After that, she started to distance herself, she was always zoning out, she wasn't herself anymore and to say that I was worried would be an understatement. I tried to give her space, I thought maybe she needed it. But the day when she was about to fall, I felt my whole world turned upside down.

Seeing her half-conscious self in my arms broke me completely.

I didn't know that's how I was going to hold her in my arms for the first time.

Ahe looked so thin and pale that I cursed at myself for not noticing it before.

As she asked me, I didn't move, I sat there holding her hand while she slept which looked like she needed it. While she was sleeping, she moved a bit and her sleeve ridded up a bit. The thing I saw next had my heart sinking.

There were new cut marks on her wrist and her old marks could be seen faintly. My breath hitched, I could feel tears forming in my eyes. She was hurting herself all along and I didn't know, I never noticed.

What made her do this?

I could hear my heart cracking into pieces. She was in so much pain and I didn't know about it, I felt ashamed of myself.

When she confessed her reasons when she cried, it pained me that she thought I would hate her, I can never hate my angel.

So I helped her, I wasn't there when she was hurting before but now I want to help, I want to be there for her, I want her to know that I'll always be here for her.

I planned to distract Jimin and she'll apologize to Rosé in the meanwhile. I'm grateful to Rosé that she forgives Jennie because I could practically see that a huge burden has been removed off of her shoulders.

I knew from the start that there was something with her which she hides from others, she wasn't the strong Jennie people knew, she was broken from inside.

But she overcame her hurdles, strongly, I feel so proud of her.

Now a days, there was a bounce in her steps, her eyes are full of life, she looked like she was glowing. I don't know if it was possible but she became even more beautiful than before.

Present

She has calmed down and we were just hugging each other, enjoying each others presence. I pulled away a bit but still didn't removed my arms around her. I placed my forehead on hers, "Be mine." I whispered and she smiled at that.

"On one condition," she whispered back, "Anything," I whispered, desperately. "You have to be mine too." I was scared of her reply for a second, I couldn't help but chuckle at that.

"I'm all yours, love." And with that, we sealed the deal by closing the gap between us and connecting our lips in a blissful kiss. Sparks flew the moment our lips connected, it was the most wonderful feeling ever. I didn't move my lips at first and she did the same, just taking in the feeling of each other's lips against each other.

I tangled my fingers in her hair as my thumb caressed her cheek. I slowly started to move my lips, trying to savor the sweet and addicting taste of her lips against mine, her movements were hesitant, meaning it was her first kiss and that made me smile through our kiss.

Our lips perfectly molded against each other, moving in perfect sync, dancing in harmony. It was gentle yet passionate and I pour everything to express my love through this kiss.

We pulled back to catch our breaths, her whole face has turned red while I could feel my blood rushing towards my ears, but we didn't care, we were smiling from ear to ear.

"This is my first kiss." She blurts out and I knew it from her lack of experience in our kiss, yet it was the most beautiful moment of my life.

"Really? But you are my second one," She looked shocked yet sad, she smiled and nodded but it wasn't like her usual smiles.

"W-Who was your first one?" She asked, as much as she tried to hide it, I could still feel her jealousy through it.

I smiled.

"You." Her eyes widened, "But ho—" I cut her off by placing my lips on her again, catching her off guard.

She didn't respond quickly because of the shock but after a while, she kissed back.

I pulled away and saw her breathing heavily while gaping at me.

"This! Is my second kiss," I said while smiling at her. She looked dumbfounded for a moment and I chuckled at her cuteness.

She pouted and punched my chest then hid her face in my chest. I tightened my hold on her and kissed her forehead.

Finally, she's my girl now.
