"I...We're friends, right...But...can you...Could you help me?" Taehyung frowns.
"Help you how?" He whispers and Yeona doesn't look at him.
"Move on." Taehyung frowns. He hates the idea of being a person she uses to move on. But at that very moment...

I close my eyes as our faces get closer, Taehyung's soft breath hitting my lips. His eyes are looking down at my lips. His hands are warm on my skin.
Taehyung and I have kissed a hundred times. But this...
His hands on my neck, his lips brushing against mine...It's unfolding all sorts of feelings I didn't think I could feel.
When his lips capture mine between his, our bodies almost automatically collide and my hands move around his waist.
My worries disappear for a few precious seconds. For those few seconds, I see everything clearly.
And I think that's the moment I realised that Taehyung has been so much more than my friend. Of course we haven't really behaved like friends, but I didn't realise just how strong my feelings were until this moment.
It feels like we're irrepressibly attracted to each other, like our lives were always meant to collide.
He's the reason why I couldn't accept Jimin's feelings.
It's been more than six months since he's been here for me on a daily basis, keeping me safe, making sure that I'm okay.
He's always been genuine with me, even though we work in a world of appearances and pretend, even if we constantly live in that universe of lies...
When we pull away, as if trying to enjoy the moment further, I keep my eyes closed, still feeling Taehyung close to me.
"You have no idea how long I've been dying to do that and tell you how much you mean to me, Yeonaah." I open my eyes and frown at his confession.
"Why did you? Wait, I mean?"
I don't know if I would've been ready back then, but I guess he wasn't either. Was he?
"There was so much going on, and you had so much going on. And I didn't know if...well if you and Jimin...I guess I wasn't sure you didn't have feelings for Jimin and I didn't want to come in between. I mean If I'm being honest, even now, I'm not entirely sure-"
This time I'm the one who lift my hands to his face and gently bring his lips to mine.
I have to shut him up, how could he possibly think I still have feelings for Jimin? I mean, yeah he was my first love.
But first my love doesn't mean my only love. I'm over him now. I've been over him for a while. It was hard to do but I did it.
I think Taehyung understands what I'm trying to do, shutting him up this way.
I feel Taehyung smile through the kiss and pull away only to be brought into his tight embrace.
"Okay, now I'm sure." He whispers in a soft chuckle which causes me to smile against his chest.
