The Tattoo on my HeartWords: 6752

Eighteen years, Eighteen months, Eighteen weeks, Eighteen days, Eighteen hours, Eighteen minutes later.........

"Wait, wait, wait, wait..... hold on, hold on......so you are telling me that you dreamed that he died after he dreamed in your dream that you died....?" Junha asked, staring stupidly at his father.

"Does that even make sense??" he asked before Taehyung could even open his mouth to answer him.

"So....wait, wait....he died in your dream after you died in his dream.....?" Junha continued.

"No, no......you dreamed that he dreamed that you died....and he died in your dream.....but he didn't actually dream that you die-"

"Junha, you are going to land yourself in a mental hospital if you think too hard about it" Jungkook stopped his eighteen year old son from pulling his hair out.

"Even I am still confused about what actually happened. Don't worry your pretty little head about it" he said.

"HEY!! MY HEAD ISN'T LITTLE!! AND I AM NOT 'PRETTY'!! I AM 'HANDSOME'!!!!" Junha exclaimed. Jungkook and Taehyung rolled their eyes.

"Yeah, okay, okay. Now go. Jeongyeon must be waiting for you" Taehyung said.

Junha sighed. "But...so wait....in your dream, he drea-" "Junha. Go." Jungkook said sternly. "Geez, okay, okay" Junha said and dashed out of the room, still muttering about how Taehyung dreamed that Jungkook died after dreaming that Taehyung died.

He had never been curious about his parents' love story.

He knew that his father had been blind for almost two and a half years and that he had married his other father a week after he got his sight fixed and that they had adopted him a year after that.

But he had never been curious about the details until he met his girlfriend, Jeongyeon. Now that he was in love with someone, he wanted to know his parents' love story too.

So he finally asked them about it, and got a riddle in return.

"He is gonna drive Jeongyeon up the wall now" Taehyung said after Junha left. "Obviously" Jungkook chuckled. "I hope he doesn't drive himself crazy with it" he said.

Taehyung chuckled. The chuckle turned to two chuckles. Two turned to five, five turned to fifty, and soon, he was laughing his head off along with his husband.

"I still can't believe I actually dreamed that you died after you dreamed that I died" he said.

"I know, right?! Like....how the hell did you dream of a dream?! Does that even happen?!" Jungkook asked.

Taehyung snorted. "Well, if I were a writer, I would have written a story based on those dreams" he said.

Jungkook shook his head. "Too bad you became a literary critic" he said. Taehyung chuckled again and cuddled against his husband.

Jungkook kissed Taehyung's forehead before switching the TV on and playing a random movie to pass the time.

But Taehyung couldn't concentrate on the movie. Before he knew it, his mind drifted back to the day he woke up, panicking hard and demanding to see Jungkook.

Eighteen years, Eighteen months, Eighteen weeks, Eighteen days, Eighteen hours, Eighteen minutes plus Eighteen minutes ago........

"JUNGKOOK!!!!" Taehyung yelled as he jolted awake. He frantically tried to pull the sheets off of him and get out of the bed, forgetting the fact that he was in an unknown territory.

"TAE!! TAE!! What the hell?!?!?!" Namjoon yelled as he ran to push his brother back onto his bed.

"HYUNG!! GET JUNGKOOK!! I NEED TO SEE HIM, GET HIM, OH MY GOD, GET HIM, HYUNG!! I NEED TO SEE HIM NOW!! HYUNG!! JUNGKO-"

"Hey, hey, chill, rel-"

"NO!! GET HIM HERE, HYUNG!! PLEASE GET HI-"

"Tae, he is on the way! Chi-"

"NO, HYUNG!! I C-CAN'T CHILL!! I NEED TO S-SEE HI-"

"Tae, you are panicking, baby. Shhh, take a deep breath for me" Namjoon said, but Taehyung couldn't. If anything, his breath worsened.

"I-I...I N-NEED TO S-SE-" "Shhhhhhhhhhh" Namjoon dragged as he tackled him into a tight hug.

"Take a deep breath" he said, rubbing his trembling brother's back vigorously. "Jin hyung called him already" he said, gesturing to his fiance to call Jungkook.

"B-But I-I need to see him!! I need him here!! He can't die! He has to..."

Seokjin showed his thumbs, telling him that he already called Jungkook.

"Tae, he did not die, baby. You need to take a de-"

"No, no, I need to see him. I d-don't need deep breath! I n-need K-Kook!! I-.."

Namjoon asked Seokjin to call Jungkook again.

"J-Jungkook...I need my Kookie....H-He can't die like tha-"

"Tae, here! Talk to him. He is on phone" Seokjin said, passing his phone to Taehyung.

"Tae-"

"KOOKIE!!! COME HERE, PLEASE!! I NEED YOU TO LIVE!! YOU CAN'T DIE ON ME!! YOU HAVE TO LIVE!!! COM-"

"Shh, I am already at the hospital, baby. I am in the elevator now. Shhh, I am coming!!" Jungkook said and before Taehyung knew it, his heavenly scent invaded him.

"Shh, shhhhhhh, what got my baby all scared and shaky like this, huh?" Jungkook asked, rubbing his back and peppering his face with kisses.

"Y-Yo-You...You can't d-die on me" Taehyung stuttered, trying his best to stop trembling, now that he made sure that his fiance was alive. He trailed his hands up and frantically tried to feel Jungkook's face.

"Of course not, baby. I wouldn't dare to die on you. Did you have a bad dream?" Jungkook asked, bringing Taehyung's head to his shoulder and stroking it head gently. "H-Horrible dream" Taehyung whispered into Jungkook's shoulder.

"Awww, I am sorry, baby. It's okay now. I'm here, okay? Take a deep breath for me" Jungkook said. Taehyung obeyed.

After ten minutes, he calmed down enough to let the doctor handle his bandages.

He didn't let go of Jungkook when everyone else hugged him after the doctor removed his bandages.

He didn't let go of him the whole week. The only time he let him out of his sight was when Jungkook had to pee.

He didn't let go of him even when he had to get ready for his wedding.

He didn't let go of him even when he had to walk down the aisle. As a result, the two of them walked down the aisle together.

He didn't let go when the priest announced that they could kiss each other, making the audience chuckle at them.

It took two whole months for him to accept the fact that it was just a dream and that it was not going to happen.

"Tae, I really, really, reallllllyyy need to pee, baby" Jungkook said. "B-But....you'll come back, right?" Taehyung asked.

"Of course, baby. I can't stay in the bathroom forever. I come back every time, don't I?" Jungkook asked.

Taehyung bit his lip. "You do" he whispered hesitantly. Jungkook chuckled at him. "My baby" he cooed and pecked his lips.

"Now I really have to pee. I will come back and continue that kiss, okay?" he said.

"You better" Taehyung muttered.

"Of course, baby. I love you!!" Jungkook yelled as he ran to the washroom.

"I LOVE YOU TOO!!" Taehyung yelled at him, earning another chuckle from him.
