You see ... Taehyung and I have been friends for a while now and when I say a while I mean my whole life. We practically grew up together as my mom and his have always been great friends. Everything went smoothly.
Days spent playing in the park, eating cookies late at night and his nocturnal escapes to get into my room in the middle of the night so we could watch movies together were an habit for us. He entered the window in the middle of the night and left in the morning, risking to fall asleep in class during lessons due to lack of sleep. Let's say that in any case he was not exactly an excellence as far as school was concerned.
But everything had changed since the night of my seventeenth birthday. 'Y/n let's go to a party tonight' he had suddenly proposed leaving me a little perplexed. 'You'll have fun you'll see, I promise you that if you don't like it we'll go home and dive under the covers and watch endless series'
In the end I accepted, I could not refuse his request especially after he had made his teddy bear eyes. ' All right'
'You'll like it you'll see' and a smile, the sweetest one had formed on his lips . 'Let me get off!' I screamed when he picked me up and whirled me around the room. I smile at that memory. But later that night a disaster happened.
Lukas a drunk American friend of his approached me at the party and in response I started dancing with him, slightly taken by alcohol. Tae's friends were all his age so they were all older than me, but even though Taehyung was nineteen and I was seventeen the age difference had never been a problem for us.
'Come with me' Lukas shouted over the sound of the music of that place full of dim lights from the vodka and the cocktails running through my veins. I giggled and, grabbing his hand, I followed him into one of the dressing rooms at the back of the hall. The music was slightly softer there and I could see it better. His dark curly hair, his chocolate brown skin and emerald eyes were very sexy.
Without thinking twice we had started kissing and his hands wandered along my body covered only by a very tight and flashy dress because of all the bright colors tending to pink. I felt very dirty and thrilled. 'WHAT THE FUCK IS HAPPENING HERE!' The hand of a Taehyung I did not recognize had slammed the door of the narrow room. I am yanked by his hand and pushed away by Lukas. 'What's going on?'
I ask out of concern.
'Hey man, why didn't you tell me about her earlier?' And a look that makes me sick to stomach forms on Lukas's face. 'Get lost before your teeth are all gone' Taehyung grabbed him by the collar and knocked him to the ground. I didn't understand anything anymore, I couldn't move, and seeing how my best friend was in that state frightened and confused me so much that from that point I don't remember anything.
It had been three days since I had heard Tae.
So I decided to go and see him. 'Mom, I'm going to auntie, so please don't pester me if I come back late,' I warn her as I put on the first clothes that come my way and head towards Taehyung's house.
Not knowing why my heart was pounding, I chew a strawberry candy and immediately feel relieved. Arriving in front of his house, I don't wait long before my aunt opens the door for me. 'Y/n honey, how are you? Why didn't you show up these days? ' 'Semester-end exams are stealing a lot of my time lately' I lie 'Is Tae upstairs?'
'No, he left an hour ago but he hasn't come back yet, meanwhile if you want you can go upstairs, he should be back soon' I nod and walk up the stairs to the room of the boy that was like a brother to me, but when I open the door I risk banging my head on the wall in fright. 'OH My God Ta-' but his hand covers my mouth and keeps me from falling to the ground. 'Don't scream, I don't want my mom to see me like that' And streams of blood dripped from his eyebrow.
I nod and as soon as he lets go, I frame his face with my hands and, worried, I ask him 'Oh Taehyung, what did you do?' I run my finger over his split, swollen lips and a strange grimace appears on his face 'What about your knuckles? Did you get into a fight with anyone? Come let's sit on the bed ' 'Y/n calm down' suddenly stops me grabbing my shoulders and crossing our eyes 'It's nothing' he chuckles. 'Who are you trying to fool?' snorted 'Come on, let your wounds be disinfected' I force him to listen to me and open his bedside table taking out the disinfectant and the patches.
I sit between his legs at the edge of the bed and he leans against the head of the bed, letting me do it. As I cleanse his wounds he can't take his eyes off me and I feel like butterflies fly into my stomach. 'Why are you looking at me like that? Do you want to explain me what do you have lately? You ask me to come to a party with you, and you risk hitting your friend. I call you and you don't pick up my calls. And now? You come out here from I don't know where covered in beaten and blood. Tae...'
