SOUL } 21

Taehyung was sitting on one side of the door inside his and Namjoon's bedroom, and I was sitting on the other. I knew he was sitting because my back was pressed against the low left side of the door. 

"Let me in, Tae, it'll be fine." I say for the fourteenth time. "Ara you don't understand. We took some pictures with Hoseok's sister's friend once, and she got attacked online by our fans. That was forever ago. This is all my fault." He says, his voice strained and in pain.

"Tae, baby, calm down," I hum. "I'll be fine. Just let me in." 

"I just- I feel so bad. They might hurt you and it- it's all my fault." He says, his voice breaking.

I made the boys go to the backyard, and Namjoon backed me up.

"Baby, just let me in. It's not your fault, I promise." I say, and I slide up against the door as he does. He opens the door and we slide into each other's arms like magnets. I hold him as he shakes, and I pull him to sit on his bed. 

"None of the other boys were as reckless as I was! I ruined everything!" He says, his voice unstable and shaking. "It's not your fault, Tae. It's in my Soul to be with you guys, to be with you idols. It would've happened anyways." I say, and he sniffles. His eyes are filled with tears, and his bottom lip is quivering. 

"You don't deserve this though, Ara." He whispers as he looks me in the eye. "I can handle it, Taehyung. I can handle your fans. I can handle the real you. I can love the real you, and I'm not going to be punished for it. Okay?" I ask, and then I realize how close we are and then he kisses me. His lips are soft, and I feel the sparks fly everywhere, as if they start from my heart. He pulls me onto his lap so I'm straddling him, and he turns his head to get better access. His hands lower to the small of my back, and I swear I felt the change of Finalization but it might've been just the kissing. 

When I pull back for a breath, he leans his forehead on mine. "Okay, Ara. Okay." He says, his breathing ragged and unstable but in a good way this time. "I think we Finalized." I say, and he chuckles airily. "Yeah?" He asks. I chuckle too, leaning back to admire his features. "You're so gorgeous, Ara." He hums, and I nod. "You are too. Do you feel better?" I ask. He nods.

"Good, let's go eat." I say, turning. He pulls me back for another soft kiss, before letting me go. I am right, he does let go of me. The magnetic pull is gone, but I don't feel the need to be close disappear. He keeps pace with me, holding my hand tightly. I walk outside with him, and the rest of the boys look up. Everyone is holding their phones, eyes wide. "They even found your name." Jungkook mumbles. 

I nod. "Anyways, I think TaeTae and I just Finalized." I hum, and Tae nods. Jin and Jungkookie look at each other. "I think you should have the night, Jagiya." Jin hums, and I smile softly. "Thank you, Jinnie." I hum, my eyelids drooping. "'M hungry." I mumble, and Namjoon walks forward. He wraps his arm around my waist and him and Tae lead everyone inside. We unpack the food as Namjoon shows pictures of how they got yearbook pictures of me from my high school.

"Your sasaengs are creepy." I say, and they nod in agreement. "It sucks because when most international people look in they see the sasaengs not for just us but for all the other idols. They hate us because the think our fans are all sasaengs." Namjoon says, and I nod. "We'll have a few bodyguards on you when you go out, if that's okay." Jimin say. I raise my eyebrow. "I literally have electricity fingertips, I'll be fine." I hum. He sighs as we eat. Tae takes it upon himself to feed me bites here and there.

My eyelids are drooping by the time I finish my food. "I'll take her to bed." Taehyung hums, and just kind of picks me up before anyone can say anything. He whisks me away to his and Namjoon's room, and shuts the door. He helps me take off the belt, and I yawn. Then he helps me slide down the skinny jeans, and I'm so tired I don't even try to cover my legs. He then helps me pull on some of his (huge) pajama pants. 

He pulls off Yoongi's beanie and puts it on the dresser with Jimin's pants and his belt. Then he un-braids my hair and lays me down in the bed. He dresses in pajama pants and stays shirtless before he climbs into his bed with me. He pulls me close to him, and then kisses me on the nose. I lean up and kiss him softly, making him chuckle. "Go to sleep, little angel." He whispers, and I kiss him again, softly. 

"Goodnight, TaeTae." I mumble as I curl into his chest.
