IN YOUR EYES ( TAEKOOK ) SHORT STORY
IN YOUR EYES - 10 (´∩。• ᵕ •。∩`)
Jungkook didn’t understand why it was happening
Why he started waiting for Taehyung’s voice
Why his chest felt lighter whenever Taehyung was near
Why his hands always reached out before he could stop them
Because feeling something meant having something to lose
And Jungkook had lost enough
One night, after the café closed, Taehyung stayed behind
JUNGKOOK
(Leaning against the piano, fingers tracing the keys absently)
TAEHYUNG
Your uncle called me today (said suddenly)
TAEHYUNG
(exhaled, his voice carefully controlled) He told me to stay away from you
JUNGKOOK
(Grip on the piano tightened)
TAEHYUNG
(Hesitated, then said) He thinks you’re getting too attached
Before he could reply, Taehyung stepped closer
Not enough to touch—but close enough that Jungkook could feel him
TAEHYUNG
Is that true? (his voice barely above a whisper)
JUNGKOOK
I— (didn’t know what to say)
Then, Taehyung did something unexpected
He reached out, slowly, deliberately—giving Jungkook a chance to stop him
TAEHYUNG
(Fingers brushed against Jungkook’s hand—warm, steady, grounding)
TAEHYUNG
Tell me to let go (murmured)
JUNGKOOK
(Because for the first time—he didn’t want to)
TAEHYUNG
(Gently intertwined their fingers)
JUNGKOOK
(Didn’t pull away)
Later that night, Jungkook lay in bed, his hand still tingling.
He couldn’t stop thinking about it
Not the touch itself, but the feeling it left behind
For years, his world had been dark, cold, empty
Now, it was filled with warmth he didn’t know how to handle
ME
Don't forget to give like 😤
