Can I Love You

37

Taehyung has been silent, she hasn't spoken since this morning. Jungkook has his flight this evening and Taehyung thinks her voice would break if she will speak

She will be deeply missed him though it's not her first time to be left behind, she's been thinking what life will she have once Jungkook is far from her and those thoughts that can't be out of her brain

What if he found someone else's there, that he can find confort when he needed it the most. Will he break up with her right away or hide it from her since there's no way she can found out. She doesn't know where she's getting this idea? She's not into movies to know these things but it bothers her so much that makes her think it will be easy on them if he break up with her before he go

Jungkook grab her waist pulling her to his chest. Taehyung blinks feeling his chest on her back. Jungkook kisses the side of her neck

"What are you thinking?"
He smells her scent

"Nothing"

He shakes her head and smile at him but Jungkook knows there is something on her mind

"Here..."

Jungkook could have a plan to be a little more romantic of the ways how he make her wears there's engagement ring but he's running out of time.. his flight will be tonight and there's a lot of thing he wants to do with her

He gets a small box on his pocket and shows it to her. Taehyung knows what is it but afraid to hold it. Jungkook opens it for her, showing a simple diamond in a thin silver band

He holds her hand while they're still in that position and slide it on her finger

"I love you Tae"
He whispers on her side. Taehyung has tears in her eyes while staring at the ring on her. She wants to see him, to face him but she's a crying mess by now and she doesn't want him to see her like that. She hides her face with her palms and sob

She feels so happy just to feel him behind her and a ring on her finger. Jungkook holds her tight and let her subside her cry

She finally turns to face him and wipes all her tears. Jungkook chuckles on her, she's so cute even she's crying

"Shhh.. take a breath"
He teases that makes her slap his chest

"Don't make fun of me"
She whines making her face clear of tears but it continue to flows. Jungkook helps her

"You're crazy! You think it will be simple to slide a ring on my finger?!"
She pouts still not looking at his face

"Yeah, i just did"
He laughs and pull her on his chest. He runs a hand on her hair

"I love you Tae and i promise you. We'll get married the moment I'll return, okay?"
He kisses her head. Taehyung nods and continue to sniff

Suddenly, all her worries disappears

"I still have time, so what do you want to do?"

Jungkook doesn't want her to come in the airport cause he knows, he might've not come with his grandparents to board the plane knowing she's will be left behind so they decided to spend the whole day together instead

Taehyung pulls him to have a snack in a street food then have an ice cream on a ice cream parlor and eats. They were just like having a simple date. Jungkook gets her on a stationary stores and bought her the biggest teddy bear

It's so big, she can fit on her bed. Jungkook can't able to hide it behind him but he tries. Taehyung laughs seeing him walking around with it behind him

"Are you really trying to surprise me with that?"
She points at it with her boxy smile

"Yeah, I'm trying" he laughs and finally show it to her

"This is so huge"
She holds it with both hands like she's holding a baby under their arms but Jungkook takes it as a compliment and teases her playfully

"Mine is still bigger than this" he whispers and sees how she turns tomato red understanding what he meant. She pushes him with the bear

"You're naughty!"
She pouts angrily.. how could he be like this, they were too young to know these things and they are not in that level of relationship but Jungkook pulls her close, hands on her waist and kisses her deeply on the lips

It caught her off guard surprised to feel his lips on her till her arms swing on his shoulder enjoying the kiss he's giving her

"I love you, I know it will be early to think of these kind but I want you to know that there's a lot of plan i want to make with you by my side"

Taehyung grips on his shirt and blushes more

"Hyung.. I love you too, I'll wait for you"

"Oh Tae.. you'll better be"
He smirks and kisses her again

They go back in her home and put the plushie on her bed. It's big enough for her to hug it while sleeping

"Think of it was me"

"Yeah"
They stay close, just embracing each other. Few more minutes and he needs to go. Taehyung tightens her hold on him, feeling crying again but Jungkook beat her to it. This time he can't help it but to cry

It will be the last time he can feel her and they need to wait for another year to hold her again for a visit

"This is insane"
He sniff   "I can feel you again after years and... Oh God i will missed you! I'll do everything so I can get you, okay? I don't want to wait for 5 years not to be with you.. you'll follow me, alright?"

Taehyung nods, she's crying again

"yes, you take care okay? And no other girls"

Jungkook feels her possessiveness and it makes him so happy to know he doesn't want to lose him

"I'll be the most faithful man in the world for you Love"
He kiss her again and again till his Mom needed to him out of her house

" Jungkook.. it's time, we're going to be late"
Mrs. Jeon waves her hand outside their gate. Jungkook shouts telling her to wait for a minute

"I'll be going now.."
They were holding hands just beside her room door

"I love you.. I'll call often and we will have a lot of video calls"
He feels the ring on her and shows her another box of ring. This time it's for him, a simple silver ring around his finger.. he feels the need to show off that he already has someone waiting for him back home

"Take care Jungkook hyungie. I love you"
She releases him as he go downstairs to be his Mom. She watch them in her window, waving a hand on them till their car is gone

She sits on her bed and cries a river. She doesn't know how long she's been crying her heart out while hugging the teddy bear on her lap

Jungkook is gone and she needs to face her days without him

Sorry for this sad short update. Separation anxiety sucks. Everyone has it. I'm worried for my ginger cat! He's been missing since yesterday and I can't find him anywhere. He might be hungry cause he has always been :(
