TAEHYUNG'S VIEW

Taehyung was curled up in the couch, Jimin on his side as he tried to console the crying boy. Taehyung had asked Jimin to drive him home after seeing the news, said he wanted to wait for jungkook to come back. He couldn't help but cry, thinking of the possibilities of how things may turn out.

"Tae you should stop crying, you know reporters are desperate for money so they could write and exaggerate anything just to get paid" Jimin says, masking the anger in his heart at the fact that Jungkook was making his best friend cry like this.

"It's been almost an hour since I called, Jimin do you think he'll come home?" Taehyung whispers as he tried to dry his nonstop tears with his palms. "I'm so scared" he cried out as he couldn't help but feel insecure.

"Tae-"

"What if he leaves me? Jimin what to I do then?"

"Taehyung what is wrong with you! It's just a damn article and it's not like Jungkook hadn't told you about her!" Jimin yells, he doesn't know why he's so pissed but he can't help it.

Taehyung cried harder as Jimin yelled "H-he only t-told me a..bout the p-past Jimin" he stutters as he couldn't ever talk properly from all the crying.

"Tae... you're okay, I'm sorry please don't cry" Jimin said, bringing Taehyung into an embrace and the Burnett cries in his chest.

"Every one leaves me, I- I try to not give too much or too little, but it a-always happen" Taehyung rambles.

"Oh my god tae you're overeating again! Jungkook would never leave you and everyone knows that"

"Every one ends up leaving me. D-dad had left because of me. Mom had to struggle to raise me all alone, while dad was living happily with is second family."

Jimin just sighs, he stopped trying to talk the boys out of it and just allowed him let out his feelings.

Taehyung had stopped crying, but still was talking, because if he stopped talking, he'd just continue crying.

"Although she's not the nicest, but she sure is pretty.. why if the people are right? What if Jungkook is better off with her than with me?"

"Tae you serious read the comments?" Jimin asks in disbelieve. Taehyung just hid his face on the blondes chest more. "People always give their uncalled opinions tae, despite the fact that they know literally nothing so you shouldn't let them get to you" Jimin encouraged.

"And if the boy really is jungkook's, I can't make the little boy pass through what I went through. I don't think I'll be able to survive of the guilt Jimin. I I'm overthinking but I can't help it." The boy mumbled, eyes getting heavy from all the crying and he felt sleepy.

Before Jimin could respond, he heard soft snores coming from the brunette's parted lips. He sighs. He doesn't remember the last time he had seen Taehyung in this state.

Knowing the boy since elementary school, he know Taehyung was an over thinker. The boy had gone through a lot. From having his father leave them because of Taehyung's preference in love, because of his sexuality to Taehyung being bullied in high school for same reason.

People just couldn't accept him for who he is and people he call friends before had also parted from him for same reason.

Jimin had introduced Jungkook to Taehyung as he'd also known Jungkook for a long time. He trusted Jungkook to never hurt Taehyung, but seeing the latter like this, he couldn't help but feel disappointed.

He's thought was interrupted as Jungkook rushed through the doors.

"Took you long enough" Jimin says as he carefully lays Taehyung so the Burnett was laying on his side on the couch.

"I'm so sorry traffic was so bad I couldn't-"

"You don't owe me any fucking explanation, Jungkook" Jimin glares at the panting boy. "You better have a valid explanation for the shit you just pulled, and no, I don't need you to tell me" Jimin finished, clearly passed, eyes filled with anger and disappointment. He walks towards the door, purposely bumping shoulders with Jungkook and he left the house.

Jungkook just stands there, looking at the brunette who was peacefully sleeping. Then Guilts downs upon him, seeing Taehyung's swollen eyes and tears stained face.

He caused this.

He hurt Taehyung.

JUNGKOOK'S VIEW

He walks towards the couch and lifts the older, carrying him towards their bedroom and laying him on the bed.

But all the movements had disturbed the latter's sleep and he had woken up.

Taehyung opens his eyes as Jungkook drops him on the bed. He immediately sits up, feeling relief wash through him as he sees that Jungkook is here, he hadn't left him.

Jungkook slowly sits on the edge of the bed as he rests his palm on Taehyung's thigh. Taehyung sits comfortably, Leaning his back on the headboard as he stares at his love. Saying nothing, just waiting for jungkook to saying something.

"Baby, I'm so sorry" Jungkook starts, eyes filled with regret as he looks at his hand on the Burnett's thigh, unable to meet his gaze.

"I was going to tell you, but being a coward, I just couldn't find a way" Jungkook continued as Taehyung remains quiet.

Jungkook felt his heart beat a faster at the lack of response from the Burnett but he just continued talking.

"I- that day I met her.. it was at the cafe... I know I shouldn't have met with her, but I knew she'd never stop bothering me so I just..." Jungkook sighed, still can't find the right words to say.

"When I asked what she wanted... she said— she gave me some, uh... some files" Taehyung still just stared at him..

"Uhm, tae, apparently, the- the boy... the child she's with-"

Taehyung's heart threatened to beat out of his chest as he knew what was coming next...

"It's— she said he's m-mine"

Taehyung looks down, tears rolling down his cheek, he hoped for the rumors to be false.

"Tae.. baby" jungkook's calls as he moved onto the bed fully, making Taehyung rest his head on his chest... "please don't cry I can't stand it" he said, feeling the guilt in his heart worsening.

"Wh-why didn't you tell me?" Taehyung finally says, voice sore as he's been crying too much.

"I'm so sorry tae, I should have told you but I wanted everything to be under control first.. baby please stop crying, it changes nothing"

"You have a child Jungkook, it changes everything" Taehyung whispered.

Jungkook's heartbeat increased. "Tae don't say that please, I don't know why but I have a feeling she's lying" Jungkook tries to convince Taehyung.

"And the dna results?" Taehyung asked

"I'm getting the ones she gave validated, it's taking so much time"

"What if it's positive?" Taehyung asked

"I'll pay my duties"

"You're going to abandon you child?"

"I'll still go see him sometimes tae, please" Jungkook doesn't know why he's begging, but it can help but be scared, what if Taehyung calls off the wedding?

Hari had given Taehyung a hint all these time, he just ignored it. Taehyung's hakes his head as he remembers what Hari said in the make up booth that time.

"Maybe luck is on his side, don't you think?"
"Maybe luck is on his side, maybe I'll bring that luck out to light"

Taehyung just hugs Jungkook tighter. "I trust you Kook, and I love you too much to let this come between us" Taehyung says.

A wave of relief rushed through Jungkook untill-

"But this is... all too much for me right now, Jungkook I think I should stay at mom's for a while" Taehyung says, moving away from jungkook

"W-what? B—but why?" Jungkook's eyes were teary

"Not sure"
