Chapter Five
~Y/N POV~
I don't know what's going to come of this conversation or whatever with Taehyung. I'm still surprised that he even remembers this place but I've come like he asked so I could get some possible answers from him about a few things. Just between us so there's no interruptions.
No Jungkook.
No Yeri.
Not even Jimin or Jisoo.
Just the two of us, alone and it's been a while since that has ever happened. The closest we've been to being alone was once when I was in the kitchen making breakfast and he came downstairs, stared at me in the doorway but left before I could say anything. That moment did last about a full minute in silence at least but hopefully this last longer than a minute and there's actual talking involved.
Hopefully I can muster enough words to speak to him. I have this feeling Taehyung may not feel much of what I do like he use to before he died. I think things are a little different now but not from my end, its more like from his.
Sitting on this hill, I curled up my knees to my chest, pulling up my cardigan from my shoulder and sat in waiting gazing out to the view around me. Even in the evening as the sun is going down, it's still a great view which is why it was Taehyung and I's place to come and enjoy each others company alone but yet out of the house.
There's good memories here but since Taehyung has come back its turned into sad memories. I just want things to be the same like they use to even if I know that wont happen for more than two reasons.
Honestly I'm not in a rush to get home, Taejun is safe with Jungkook for the evening. He offered to watch Taejun but wasn't so keen on myself coming here to speak to Taehyung alone but I shrugged him off about it knowing it's actually probably the best thing to do right now.
I just want to know what Taehyung has to say and how he remembers this place. Is his memory even coming back?
Deep in my thoughts I felt the hairs on the back of my neck stick up and this fluttering sensation in my stomach. I know what that means and yet I turned my head around over my shoulder to see what was behind me.
Taehyung.
I found him just standing there about ten feet away from me, hands tucking into his jeans and blank expression boring into my very soul. If I didn't know any better he was reading me, which is what he use to do all the time, stare at me blankly from a far and read me as if he could read my thoughts.
I sent him an awkward smile and waved at him just to turn back around to face the front. I heard him sigh softly and listened to his footsteps come towards me until he sat down beside me, pulling his legs up to his chest like myself and gazed off to the hills beyond.
There was silence between us and as much as I wanted to ask him what he wanted, I thought maybe to let him take his time and honestly I was just enjoying his company. I even counted up to 60 seconds which is a minute to see if he would leave like last time but no. It has to be at least ten minutes of silence before I heard Taehyung sigh again which was more heavier than the last.
"You can stop counting down the minutes Y/n. I'm not going anywhere soon." Taehyung
My eyes widen, showing my shock and turned my face towards him. Taehyung was still staring off to the sky but glanced at me raising a brow but grew a small smile after seeing my shocked face.
So he can really feel what I'm thinking then? I just thought it was a hunch of his or something.
"Y/n as soon as I came back I still felt connected to you. I was just very confused about it. All I could feel was your pain and that you needed me but instead I found Jungkook in the woods." Taehyung
He looked down to his lap, dropping his legs to the ground and straightening them out and leaned back using his arms to support himself.
"I know you have a lot of questions Y/n and I do too." Taehyung
He looked up to the sky opening his eyes and took soft yet deep breathes through his nose and lips. I just stared at his side profile, his handsome face that hasn't changed and will always hold my heart no matter how much he tries to push it away.
"H-How'd you....know?"
I asked him still in whisper and gestured to the open space around us, meaning how he remembers this place, the place we always came to spend alone time together.
Taehyung grew a smile and turned his head to face me.
"It's nice to finally hear your voice Y/n I've been meaning to tell you that." Taehyung
A sudden blush crept upon my face and I shyly looked away just to hear him chuckle next to me.
"But to answer your question, I dreamt of this place last night." Taehyung
I gasped and whipped my head back around to face him but he was already staring right at me.
"There was a few times we came here and just talked, cuddled, kissed. Seeing all that made everything all the more real to me which is why I wanted to spend time with you all today. It seems that maybe things are coming back to me in pieces in my dreams." Taehyung
Happy to hear that I placed my hand on top of his on the grass and thankfully even when he glances down to my hand on his, he doesn't remove it. In fact his smile grows into his famous boxy smile and even giggles. I'd be lying if I say I didn't have tears brimming in my eyes just to see that smile. I've missed that smile and even when he's been back, that smile has never truly appeared until now.
"But I also wanted to make things clear with you about Yeri before you get the wrong idea." Taehyung
He spoke deepening his voice and dropping his smile.
I didn't like the sound of that and rolled my eyes taking my hand away from him but he quickly grabbed my hand and pulled me closer, my chest bumping into his shoulder.
"I was serious the other night when I said Yeri and I are only friends. Nothing more, I would never do something with her that could hurt you." Taehyung
I managed to pluck up the nerve to look him in the eyes, showing my sadness when I recall what he said a few days ago in the meeting room. He wished that I rejected him and I don't want to do that, ever.
Taehyung in seeing my sadness closed his eyes, expressing pain and guilt and taking a deep breath before he opens his eyes again to meet my own.
"I am sorry about that Y/n. I didn't mean any of that. My jealousy of you and Jungkook got the best of me. I'll make it up to you and him some way or another." Taehyung
I nod but gritted my teeth together when I started to think about how Yeri needs to leave. She's causing trouble again and needs to leave, she's over stayed her welcome.
"Y/n, Yeri wont be a problem. She's just my friend." Taehyung
I scoffed, thinking about how she was suppose to be his mate once upon a time and they've had sex before. How can he even be so protective of her when she was the one that also contributed to his death, it was her mate that did it.
Taehyung suddenly gapsed and pushed me away harshly just to stand up showing his angry face.
"Y/n, Yeri would never be capable of doing such a thing!! That asshole was not here mate, she's mate less!" Taehyung
Enraged myself I stood up, angry that he just shoved me and defended her again, I jumped up to my feet and slapped Taehyung cross the face, the echo of the slap filled the air around us.
Taehyung's head struck to the side and he cupped his cheek panting heavily until I angrily grabbed the top of his head and forced his head to face me and stared at him deep in the eyes. If he can see or feel my thoughts then maybe he can see what I remember from the past with what Yeri did to me and that she truly did have a mate.
He stared intensely into my eyes as I released any memory of Yeri with both the two of us almost two years ago. All the way from where she would verbally abuse me to the time she actually laid her hands on me and Taehyung threw her out the pack. Then to when she came back to the house and ended up explaining her mate Sehun was coming to kill him. I may have not witnessed that but I showed him conversations with Jungkook, his dad, Jisoo and Jimin and Hoseok all saying the same thing.
We only kept her here to help her through therapy to get over the loss of her mate or she was going to die and we as a pack are not heartless. After that she was due to go on her way and make a life of her own but since Taehyung came back she's made excuses to stay. I will not put up with it anymore and Taehyung must make her leave or I will do it.
After I was done, I was actually quite surprised I managed to do that and pushed his hand back and stepped backwards a couple feet and watched his expression. Taehyung's face was scrunched up with confusion, shock and anger.
"Y-Y/n, what the fuck was that?" Taehyung
He finally managed to ask and I shrugged.
"Ask your precious Yeri."
I told him and turned my back to him, pushing my hair back over my shoulder and walked away leaving him alone to deal with what he needs to do. Its best for everyone that Yeri leaves, now.
