AND NOW THE BIG QN IS : DO I MAKE TAETAE SUFFER MORE OR NO??? 

"Taetae hyung, are you sure you'll be okay?" Jungkook probed, his worry evident in the deep furrow of his eyebrows. 

Taehyung brushed his worries away with a wave.

"Don't worry about it, Kookie-ah, ur Taetae hyung's just fine." Taehyung said with a grin, even trying to light up his eyes. 

Luckily for Taehyung, since he had been practising acting with the other members, he was certain of his ability in memorising the script and being able to portray Hansung's emotions. 

Or at least try to the best of his abilities to do so. 

The only thing Taehyung was worried about the most would be that perverted director. Seething inside, Taehyung felt as if his patience truly was being tested. 

On one hand he wanted to quit so badly. On the other, he knew BTS could use the exposure.

Internally he sighed and yet tried to put up a front to seem interested and engage in the other's conversation.

However, it was soon time for him to begin his acting job. 

Dreading the time that he was supposed to reach for the shooting, Taehyung couldn't help but grip his seatbelt even tighter. Frustration welled up inside of him.

"I just want him to go away," Taehyung thought, recalling the past messages the director had sent him.

'Bitch, can't wait to feel your body on mine.' sent: 15 Dec; 8.51am

'You best listen to me if you don't want shit to happen to your "family".' sent: 16 Dec; 7.01pm

Taehyung felt as if his heart would stop every single time he received those kinda messages - the kind that made him felt so so so dirty and desperately wanted for it to stop. 

But, in the end, he decided to do his best and ignore these texts. 

Soon, the car got closer and closer to the day of rehearsal; where they had to act out the first scene. 

"Taetae, we're here!" came the exited voice of their manager, Sejin-hyung. 

Taehyung jolted out from his thoughts from before and immediately felt cold sweat start to form behind his neck and on his palms. 

But, he took one look up the intimidating set and who sat in the director's chair and steeled himself. Getting out of the door, Taehyung turned back and hugged goodbye to his other members. 

"Yoon-hyungie, taetae will miss u so veryberry much" Taehyung mumbled in the crook of his neck, squeezing the life out of the elder who sat the closest to the door. 

Yoongi felt his heart break when he heard the younger's vulnerability, but he felt as if Taehyung was just nervous at the prospect of having to leave his hyung so he wrapped his own arms around the younger and gently stroked his hair.

"It's okie Taetae-ah, wherever you go and whatever you do, hyungs will always be close with you, in your heart and on your phone. Come call us whenever okay? Burying his face to the younger's head and pushing his mouth on Taetae's hair, he said in his Daegu accent, "hyungie loves u so very much, so please promise me you'll take care of yourself during shooting okay?"

Taehyung nodded into the elder's shirt and felt his eyes tear up, but hurriedly blinked it away. 

Taehyung then got out of the hug, and immediately went to the other member who already had his arms outstretched.

"Joonie-hyung, don't forget to look after yourself too okay? You look after us so much already, but we feel like you don't look after yourself enough," Drawing away from thle hug, Taehyung saw Namjoon's eyes get glassy and returned the hug with so much more vigor than before. 

Namjoon took this chance to hug back his room mate lots, and without words, just formed his dimpled smile and let the younger go - albeit reluctantly. 

Soon, Taehyung gathered himself up again and went to hug Jin and Hoseok. Both of whom have extended their arms to make room for their ever reliable dongsaeng. 

Jin began by breaking the ice and stroking the younger's hair, "Taetae-ah, hyungies are all very very proud of you and we can't wait to see you on the big screen, okay?" 

Hoseokie backed this up with his smile and nuzzled his head onto Taehyung's head, "You're really precious to us too Taetae so don't get surprised when we drop by randomly, okay?" 

Both of them smothered him with hugs and cuddles for a bit when finally, it was time for them to let go. 

Finally, it was time for Taehyung to come face to face with his soulmate, his 95 liner, his best friend - Park Jimin.

With tears in his eyes, he bent over the seats to reach his bestie, " Taetae's gonna miss you so much, Chimchim." 

Jimin hugged back his soulmate just as fiercely, deep down, he had a gut feeling something was wrong (his best friend would never act this weirdly, but brushed it off as his overimagination), and mumbled into his ear wobbly, "Taetae, imma miss u so much too! Please come back and visit us when you can, okay?" 

Taehyung nodded and gripped him tighter, snivelling in the crook of his neck. 

Moving back to get some distance between them, Taehyung pecked Jimin's cheek and squeezed him just a little bit tighter, "Thank you for everything Chim, I promise to contact you guys frequently!"

Jimin smiled into the younger's hair and nodded shakily, pushing back. 

Jungkook waited impatiently. He couldn't wait to bid goodbye to his favourite hyung while at the same time he wished this didn't have to happen.

But, the moment he saw his Taetae hyung draw back, the younger couldn't help but surge forward. Enveloping the elder into his arms, Jungkook nuzzled onto the elder and couldn't help but sniffle.

"Taetae-hyungie, don't make too many other guy friends okie? Because if you do then imma get jealous, but promise to make some friends too so you won't be lonely, okay? Even if you're lonely, if you call me, I promise to come flying to you or we can play Overwatch together! I love you lots hyungie, and even if we're not here with you, I promise we'll still be able to protect you."

Taehyung sobbed a little bit on the younger's hair when he said that. Feeling his heart grow extremely full, Taehyung reassured the younger, "Don't worry Guk-ah, hyungie will never ever be able to find someone who will replace you! You'll always be number 1 in hyungie's heart! And I'll contact you guys lots, okay?," Lowering his voice, Taehyung muttered, "Don't worry, this time it's hyungie's time to protect yalls!"

For the next couple of months since Taehyung had to stay at the shooting area to ensure that it goes well, he knew that he would not be able to see his BTS members that much and so would miss them dearly. 

Treating each and every farewell like it was his last, Taehyung cherished these and kept it close to his heart. Deep down, he knew these would be the only things that would push him forward in the future shootings.
