Chapter 39

You woke up when the sun wasn't even up. Blinking your eyes, you turned your head to the window. Despite the curtains being drawn, you could tell that it was still dark outside. You had tried looking around Taehyung's room for a clock but he didn't have one. Now you were wide awake in his bed, not knowing what time it was. 

Taehyung grumbled in his sleep and snuggled into you more- tightening his arms around you. He had shifted closer and closer to you in his sleep, his face a mere centimeters from yours. His breath was warm, his body rose up and down in a steady and calm manner. His lips were parted slightly and his long lashes gave his shut eyes the perfect final touch. 

"You enjoy staring at my face?" Taehyung sudden asked, his eyes still closed. You jumped back out of shock. Taehyung smiled and opened his eyes, moving closer to close the distance between the two of you. "So, how was the view?" Taehyung continued, his voice low and smooth. 

"It was terrible," you huffed, turning around so your back was to him. A blush of embarrassment crept up to your cheeks. 

"That hurt," Taehyung whined, nuzzling his head to your neck, his arm looped back over your waist. "But you shouldn't lie," Taehyung murmured, giving your neck a light nip with his fangs. He rolled away laughing before you could retaliate. 

"Taehyung!" you cried, turning to face him crossing your arms. You immediately shut your mouth, quiet again. You had forgotten that it was still dark outside- the other members may still be sleeping. 

"You called?" Taehyung smirked. You huffed again and began to turn around again. "Sorry sorry sorry," Taehyung whispered laughingly, stopping you with his arm. He brought you around to face him. "Forgive me?" he asked, giving you puppy eyes. You rolled your eyes before giving him a smile. Taehyung brightened and brought you into a hug. 

Your head was against his chest, your arms going around to his back. You could feel his muscles move under your fingers and his shirt with each movement. His chin rested your head, one hand on your lower back, the other on your waist. His legs rested against yours- intertwining. The two of you stayed in this position, quiet and calm. 

"Taehyung," you called, breaking the silence. 

"Yes?" 

"What," you began before stopping, unsure how to word your sentence. "What are we?" you finished a few moments later. The question had been boggling your mind for a while? What specifically was the type of relationship you and Taehyung were in?

"What do you mean? I'm Taehyung and you're Y/N," Taehyung laughed, missing your point. 

"That's not what I mean," you replied, pulling away from his embrace to meet his gaze. A hurt look passed across his face before it disappeared. 

"Then what do you mean?" Taehyung asked, no longer joking. You noticed how he didn't close the distance between the two of you.

"Well, you know how the two of us are bound by a blood pact," you began before pausing to point the thorned rose marking, "Are we just that? Is there anything more? What are we- you and I?" you finished. Are we just two people bound by a contract? Are we something more? Are we possibly lovers?

"Do you want something more?" Taehyung asked slowly. He cocked his head sideways and his face was slightly shocked- taken back. Your heart fell. Maybe it was just the blood pact and fated pair aspect that was making his vampire instincts act all 'lovingly' and close. 

"N-Nevermind," you muttered, sitting up and sliding off the bed. You padded around to the door. You felt embarrassed and hurt- had you gotten things mixed up? A slight twinge of shame also poked at you as tears threatened to fall. 

"Y/N!" Taehyung called. You didn't turn around and increased your walking speed instead. You were almost at the door. 

"Y/N!" Taehyung called again. Your hand touched the door knob- beginning to turn it. 

"Y/N!" Taehyung growled- suddenly in front of you. His eyes were slightly red and you caught a glimpse of his fangs. 

"Wha-" you began, confused at how he appeared in front of you. Oh, shadow-travel. You gave yourself a mental slap and cleared your mind. "Let me go," you replied, slightly pleading. 

"No," Taehyung said lowly, reaching to grab your hand. You moved away and you heard him cuss. He tried again and you dodged again. Eventually he turned you around and pinned you again the wall. 

"Let me go!" you cried again, unable to hold back your tears. Please don't look at me anymore.

"Dammit Y/N," Taehyung growled. Immediately his mouth was on yours. Quick, rough, and hungry for more. You didn't move, frozen. Taehyung continued for a few more moments- his lips on yours- before pulling away, his eyes searching your face. "Fuck," he muttered, brushing his head through his hair before letting it fall. He took a step back and looked away- sighing. You stood there frozen against the wall- breathing rapidly in shock. 

"You told me to let you go," Taehyung said, breaking the silence. He nodded his head to the door, continuing to not meet your eyes. You didn't move. "You want some more mouth to mouth action?" Taehyung smirked, a flirt voice on- a facade to hide his true emotions.

"Taehyung," you called. 

"Just go," he snapped, walking back to his bed and sitting down on it. Acting from the tone of his voice, you moved to the door- opening it. 

"But Y/N, before you leave, I want to tell you something," Taehyung began, stopping you in your tracks. Turning around and closing the door, you met his eyes. 

"Yes?" you replied. 

"I don't know why you started crying to be honest. If I had to say it, I should be in the one in your position. When you asked what we were, I thought your were dropping a hint- an opening that we could be something more. But turns out you didn't and I'm sorry for fucking things up," Taehyung said, speaking rapidly. His fingers fidgeted and he tapped his foot repeated on the ground. "Y/N," Taehyung began, looking up, "I'm sorry."

"Taehyung," you called after he was finished. "I think I should tell you something as well." 

"Is it necessary?"

You walked towards Taehyung and sat beside him- on the edge of the bed. Taehyung's breathing hitched slightly and he tried moving away. Grabbing his arm you tried stopping him. He broke away from your grip. Giving up because you knew you couldn't beat his vampire strength, you continued on. 

"Taehyung," you began. You paused to look at Taehyung- he was biting his lip, continuing to fidget nervously. "I asked what we were because I was slightly confused. I didn't know whether you were acting the way you do towards me because of your vampire instincts or if there was something more-" 

"Define what 'something more' is," Taehyung interrupted suddenly. 

"Like emotions, feelings, just something m-more," you sputtered. Your face blushed slightly. 

"What feelings?" Taehyung asked, pressing on. He was facing you, a smirk on his face. 

"Um...just like..." you trailed off, your face flaming. What was up with the sudden mood change?

"Like this?" Taehyung asked. Before you could answer, he brought his face to yours- kissing you. It wasn't like the rough, quick, and desperate kisses from before. These were slow, soft, and passionate. One hand cupped your face while the other one slid around to your waist. Without realizing, you were moving your mouth against his. When he broke away, the two of you were breathing deeply. 

"That was, oh- wow," Taehyung breathed, brushing his hair out of his eyes. 

"Oh my god," you squeaked, realizing what had just happened. You hid your face behind your hands and hair. 

"What?" Taehyung asked. Without seeing him, you could hear the smile in his voice. The bed shifted as he brought himself close to you again. "Y/N," Taehyung cooed, "let me see your face." 

"No," you squeaked again. 

"Fine, I guess I'll just have to say it to your hair then." The bed shifted as Taehyung rolled over beside you, laying down. You peeked at him, he was looking at the ceiling. 

"I think I'm an idiot," Taehyung began, smiling, "I also think that I failed my duty as your future boyfriend for making you cry." 

"What?" you exclaimed, brushing your hair and moving your hands out of your face. 

"Ah, there's my beautiful girl," Taehyung smiled. "Anyways, I'm sorry for jumping to conclusions so fast- I think that's where most of my faults are. I'm sorry for not realizing my emotions sooner. I'm sorry for taking so long to say it- I should've manned up and tackled my feelings straight on."

"Taehyung," you began. You had realized your mistake. Just like him, you had jumped to conclusions too quickly. Just like him you realized how you felt. "I think I-"

"Let me say it and redeem myself," Taehyung cut you off, sitting up and facing you, "Y/LN Y/N, I think I like you. No that came out wrong. I know I love you and please tell me you feel the same," Taehyung confessed- caressing your hand and biting his lips. 

Suddenly you busted into laughter. Taehyung blinked rapidly at the sudden outburst. You realized how dumb and stupid the two of you were- beating around the bush only to realize the other party felt the same way. 

"Y/N," Taehyung called desperately worried, "did I say something wrong? Did I-"

"No," you interjected. 

"Then, what is your answer-" Taehyung began again, only to be cut off again. 

"Kim Taehyung," you began, situating yourself so that you were closer to him, "I officially announce us as idiots." 

"What-"

You cut Taehyung off by giving him a kiss- a light feathery peck on his soft and luscious lips. You pulled away to see Taehyung shocked, his ears red as a blush worked his way up to his cheeks. You laughed at his expression. 

"God dammit Y/N," Taehyung growled, snapping out of his shock, "you can't just leave me hanging with one kiss." 

With a swift motion, he picked you up and plopped you into his lap while slamming his mouth on yours. He kissed you desperately- making up for the lost time when the two of you were beating around the bush. Rough yet gently, desperate and passionate- he kissed you. Shifting yourself into a more comfortable position, you didn't break contact. Occasionally Taehyung's fangs nipped your lips but you didn't mind- in fact it just made it hotter. As the rush slowed, Taehyung's kissed went from quick and passionate to slow and light pecks before you pulled away- panting. 

"Well, this is a nice position," Taehyung smirked. In the middle of your massive make out session, Taehyung had laid down on his back as you leaned over him- straddling him. Blushing furiously, you rolled off of him. 

"I'm going to go jump into a hole now," you muttered, hiding your face again. 

"Don't do that- I can't be your boyfriend if you die," Taehyung whined, nuzzling into your neck. Gently prying your hands from you face, Taehyung gave each finger a light kiss. 

"My lips are up here," you laughed. 

"You want more? A little tongue action this time?" Taehyung smirked. You blushed in defeat and Taehyung pulled you into a hug- resting against you. 

"Taehyung, what are we?" you asked again, smiling. 

"Labels aren't really a thing now but if you insist, I guess you are my gf and I am your bf," Taehyung answered.

"Best friend?" you joked. 

"I guess since you won't call me boyfriend," Taehyung pouted, brushing fake tears from his eyes. 

"What- no!" you exclaimed. Taehyung laughed and rearranged the bed- tucking the two of you back under his Tata comforter. He snuggled up against you. 

"Hey bf," you called after a few moments, breaking the silence. 

"Yes gf?" Taehyung answered, laughing. 

"What time is it?" 

"Time for us to be us but seriously, I have no idea."
