Jungkook harshly wiped his tears.

'How can you cry idiot! Get a hold of yourself!'

He knew what he was going to do now.... But the only problem is Taehyung won't be happy with it.

He scolded himself as he walked towards his car, and drove away. He entered his penthouse with slumped shoulders and walked inside his room. Just then he received a call from Yoongi.

"Kook where are you!? I heard what happened. Don't worry hyung will take care of this matter."

He rambled with worry laced voice. Jungkook sniffled.

"I-i can't believe such a thing happened on a big event like this."

"Kook I understand but don't think about it too much. You are young, you need more experience, such mishaps can happen. Don't take stress. I'll keep the media shut to avoid making any drama about it."

Jungkook nodded in understandment. He talked for a few more minutes and finally cut off the call.

He leaned against his bed. His mind wasn't working properly anymore. He reached for his medicine.

His headaches have been getting worst day by day. Clutching his head in his hand he shut his eyes. A pumping sensation felt through out his head. Hot tears brimming out of his eyes. He spent the night yelping in pain. His chest felt heavy making it difficult for him to breath.

Yejun was taking Taehyung back to his apartment after the eventful night.

He laughed all of a sudden, gaining Taehyung's attention who was busy playing with his fingers. Taehyung looked at him, confused, at his sudden joyful laughter.

"Did you see Jungkook's face? Gosh that was so humiliating. If such a thing happened to me in front of so many people I would die of embarrassment. Man! he still had the courage to walk away keeping his head high."

Taehyung frowned not finding anything amusing at all. He took a deep breath as he parted his lips to speak.

"What's so funny?"

"Isn't he your boss? Then why are you so happy about the humiliation he faced."

Yejun was quiet for a moment but then he started laughing again. Taehyung was astounded by his unusual behaviour.

"I don't like him."

He answered briefly after few seconds. Taehyung was speechless, whenever Jungkook was in front of him Yejun would act as if he's happy and excited about meeting him, but now...

"Why?"

He asked.

"I mean what's there to like about him? He's an arrogant asshole. He always thinks so highly of himself------ and all this, what he has now is just because he's heir of a filthy rich businessman otherwise, do you think he deserves all this luxury--"

Yejun scoffed.

"So why did you act like that in front of him as if you're his well-wisher?"

He asked, with a frown. Yejun chuckled.

"That's called pretending baby. You have to flatter your boss."

Taehyung turned away his head. He felt----- horrible. He didn't know why. It's Yejun's life, his point of view, his opinion about someone yet..... It made Taehyung feel bad.

He didn't say another word the whole ride. They reached his apartment building. Taehyung quickly got out of the car.

"Wait Tae! why are you always in a hurry?"

Yejun shouted exiting the car. Taehyung sucked up a deep breath, turned around to face him but he was not ready for...

Yejun crashed his lips with Taehyung who was stupefied with the sudden kiss. Taehyung couldn't move a muscle, he was frozen. He didn't respond but pushed him away after a few seconds.

Fresh tears were running down his face. He was trembling. Yejun was shocked, he didn't expect this reaction.

"D-don't do this... Again."

Taehyung muttered, breathing heavily as he ran away leaving Yejun standing there.

Entering his apartment he shut the door and sprinted towards the bathroom. He was crying by now. He didn't like it. He hated this feeling.

Turning on the tap he wetted his hand and started rubbing it on his lips. It made him remember the times when Minjun would touch him inappropriately, force himself on him.

Taehyung didn't like someone even if it was Yejun forcefully touching him. After calming down a bit he walked out of the bathroom, towards his bed and layed down.

"Am I the one who's wrong? He had the right to do that because he's my boyfriend?.... Did I overreact?"

He hiccuped. He was back to blaming himself. He couldn't help it. Now whenever something happened he felt like he's the one who was wrong.

After that night Taehyung apologized to Yejun although he didn't know why. Yejun was fine with it. He told him it wasn't his fault and Taehyung felt better hearing, it wasn't his mistake for the first time.

They were back to normal with eachother. Taehyung would go check up on Nara too making sure she and her baby was doing fine.

In the next two months there was no sign of Jungkook. Even when Taehyung would go meet Nara, he won't be at his penthouse. When he would go to their office to meet Yejun, he never bumped into Jungkook again.

He didn't want to worry about him. But he was frightened by even the thought of something happening to Jungkook. After all he was his first ever lov---

"Taetae."

Haneul whined because of lack of attention he was getting from his bestest friend. Taehyung snapped out of his daze as he looked at the cute boy.

"What's wrong Hani?"

"Mwe hungwy."

He uttered pouting. Taehyung cooed at the adorable boy. He got up placing the boy on the sofa.

"I'll go make something from for you."

The boy nodded playing with the toys. He smiled and walked towards the kitchen. He and Jimin were babysitting Haneul as Yoongi, Namjoon and Jin went to an official event as representative of Jeon Corporations.

Hoseok also joined them a few moments ago. He was with Jimin in the garden. After making sandwiches for haneul. He padded towards the garden to join them. He didn't expect to overhear their chat.

"Hyung no need to mention this in front of Tae."

"Yeah I won't. I just went to meet him, it hurted me seeing him in pain."

Jimin rolled his eyes.

"He deserves the pain. I just hope he dies a painful death, nobody even attends his funeral...."

Taehyung knitted his brows hearing jimin's words. He didn't know whom they were talking about but the next sentence ripped his heart into pieces.

" I won't care if that damned Jeon Jungkook died."

"Enough!!"

Taehyung intervened, his eyes filled with tears, jaw clenched and hands curled into fists.

"Stop it! Stop saying such things about him! How could you chim! He's.... he's my----- If something happens to him. I'll kill myself too!!"

Taehyung yelled as he continued sobbing. Jimin and hoseok immediately got up running towards him trying to engulf him into a hug but Taehyung refused.

"I am leaving."

He announced turning around. Jimin held his arm.

"Are you an idiot Taehyung? Why do you care about him? Have you forgotten what he did to you!?"

"No! No---- I haven't!!.....I haven't forgotten a single thing. I still remember everything! Don't worry those memories still haunt me. I still hear my wails, begs, his yells, my baby's cries. I remember everything but I also remember....... His l-laughter , his 'I love you's', his....kisses. I didn't let any memory, I had with him, to fade away."

"But...stop. Stop hoping for him to die, cause I'll die too. He's.... The only person left whom I love to death. At least he's breathing not under six feets of ground. Please, I won't be able to live if something happens to him now."

He cried harder. Jimin engulfed him into a hug rubbing his back.

"Okay I'm sorry. I won't say that again. Please don't cry."

Taehyung sniffled as he pulled away.

"I'm not angry at you... I just can't take it."

Jimin nodded as he hugged him again. They broke the hug after a few seconds. Taehyung turned towards hoseok.

"Hyung where's he?"

Hoseok looked down not knowing if he should tell him or not.

"Please."

Taehyung pleaded. Hoseok sighed.

"At the rehab. He had a really bad rage attack two months ago, that night of the launching. Yoongi found him in a very bad state so they brought him to the hospital. They just said he overdosed himself."

Taehyung's lips trembled as he stumbled back. Jimin held him as he made him sit on the chair. Taehyung looked down.

"H-how's he now?"

His voice came out shaky. Hoseok heaved a deep breath, and sat in front of him.

"He's better now, back to work as usual, just visits rehab after a week or so, today he had an appointment."

Taehyung nodded taking in the information.

Later that day he drove back to his apartment, still disturbed by the news he heard in the morning. Entering his apartment, he slowly padded towards the bedroom.

He sat down at the couch, taking out his phone he went through his contacts. There was his number. Still saved as "My Kookie ❤️"

He didn't know if he still uses this number or not. With teary eyes and heavy heart he pressed on call icon.

It was connected. He tucked his lower lip behind his teeth, gnawing on it anxiously. Somebody picked it up.

"Hello?"

Taehyung didn't recognize the voice. He played with his fingers.

"Is this j-jungkook's number?"

"Yes. May I know who you are?"

The lady spoke. Taehyung's throat felt dry. He didn't know who the person was, why she had Jungkook's phone.

"I'm... Taehyung. C-can I talk to Jungkook? And who are you if you don't mind me asking."

"Oh. Sure. I'll call him. And I'm his maid, I take care of him at jeon's mansion."

The lady added. Taehyung took a breath of relief. After a few minutes he again heard a voice but this time it was his favourite honey sweet voice.

"Tae?"

"H-hi."

He stammered. Jungkook was quiet for a few seconds but then he spoke again.

"Hi sweetheart. How are you?"

Taehyung sniffled not able to control his emotions.

"You are crying?"

He heard Jungkook's worried voice. He shook his head although the aforementioned couldn't see him.

"Can I meet you?"

He asked in a mere whisper.

"Me? Uh.... I'll myself come to see you soon."

Jungkook's surprised voice was heard. Taehyung fiddled with his sweater as he uttered.

"W-when?"

Jungkook was shocked again. He never expected Taehyung to call him ever again or talk to him like this.

"Whenever you want me to."

Taehyung nodded to himself as he wiped his tears.

"Today?" He suggested.

"Today?" Jungkook questioned.

"Can you come today?" He repeated.

"O-okay I'll come."

This time Jungkook stuttered. Taehyung said a few more words and abruptly ended the call. He just wanted to see him once.

He knew Jungkook and him weren't exactly in good terms but he still couldn't afford losing him. In the past years this was his biggest fear; to lose someone he loves.

He got up to tidy up his apartment and make food. After changing his clothes and doing all that work. He sat at the chair near the kitchen table and waited for Jungkook to arrive.

Just as the clock hit eight at night, he heard the door bell. He rushed towards the door opening it immediately. Jungkook stood there wearing a black hoodie with ripped jeans but still managed to look handsome as usual.

Jungkook opened his lips to speak but was caught off the guard, by taehyung's sudden hug. Taehyung threw his arms around his neck as he hiccuped and cried. Jungkook was dumbfounded for a moment.

He started rubbing taehyung's back not knowing what really happened to the aforementioned. He slowly entered the apartment with Taehyung still attached to him. Closing the door after him. He made Taehyung to sit on the couch.

Reaching for a glass of water, he made the crying male drink it all. Taehyung calmed down a bit. Jungkook crouched down near him as he cupped his face.

"What's wrong tae?"

Taehyung didn't answer, rather he latched himself with Jungkook again. Jungkook let him cry this time. He sat down on the couch with Taehyung still in his arms.

"Are you okay?"

Jungkook heard his soft murmur.

"I'm alright."

He replied. Taehyung didn't say anything else and closed his eyes.

He heard soft snores leaving the beauty's mouth a few minutes later. Jungkook had a rough idea of why Taehyung was acting like this. But he couldn't guess who could have possibly told him.

He made Taehyung lay down as he softly caressed his red tinted cheeks. Taehyung was still holding his hand to make sure he won't go anywhere.

The door bell rang, which got Jungkook's attention. He got up and walked towards the door.
