(Continuation of previous chapter)

(Concept: Taehyung was the secret boyfriend. He has no idea Tzuyu was set up in an arranged marriage with Jungkook. Now he's mad and willing to fight for this love)

(Taehyung POV)

I haven't spoken to Tzuyu since that night we spent in the backseat of my car. I've been trying to contact her, but I've had no luck. I just want to talk.

Everyday, I pass by her house, hoping I would catch her coming or going. I've seen her parents a few times, but I didn't dare confront them. Tzuyu told me all about them and how much trouble they gave her.

One day, I saw someone else leaving their house. It was a guy, dressed casually, he looked to be about my age, maybe younger. When I looked closer, I realized: that was Jeon Jungkook. The guy that married Tzuyu.

I didn't think twice about talking to him.

"Excuse me!"

He looks up, a bit startled, "Oh, yes?"

"Are you Jeon Jungkook, by any chance?"

"Yes..." He started to get suspicious.

"My name is Kim Taehyung, do you have a second to talk?"

____________

"How long have you and Tzuyu been together?"

"Not too long. Why do you ask?"

Should I tell this guy the truth? Should I tell him that I had sex with her just before they got married?

"Do you know where she is? I'd like to speak to her."

He suddenly puts a hand on my chest, holding me back.

"What do you want with my wife?" He asks.

I scoff, "Your wife? I guess she didn't tell you about me, huh?"

His expression turns dark. In a split second, he swung and punched me in the face. I was on the ground for a moment. Now I was mad. I was this close to completely jumping on this guy, until someone stopped us.

"Taehyung-ah!"

Both of us turn to see who it was.

It was Tzuyu.

"Tae, what are you doing here? Are you okay?" She rushes to my side, leaving Jungkook confused.

"I just wanted to see you." I get up, dusting myself off.

Jungkook and I were staring each other down. Tzuyu quickly got the hint.

"T-Taehyung, Jungkook, it's not what you think." She says, "I can explain."

"Oh, please do." Jungkook steps aside.

"Let's talk inside."

"Why didn't you say that before we got married?" Jungkook asks

"Because no one knew and if my parents found out, they would be furious." Tzuyu explains.

"So you just left me behind and married another guy?" I jump in.

"No, well..." Her voice shrinks, "I didn't want them coming after you. And besides, this wasnt really our choice."

She looks to Jungkook. I could tell he cared about her, but things were still kind of awkward between them.

"So...just be with him." Jungkook says.

We both look at him, confused.

"You have real feelings for him." He explains, "You'd be much happier with him than you would with me."

"That's not the problem though." Tzuyu sighs, "It's my parents."

"Just go. Run away with him. What are they going to do? You're an adult and they don't have custody over you. If you don't want tot do that, then just tell them the truth."

Tzuyu looks to me, "Can we do that?"

"Divorce him first." I say.

"Taehyung-"

"What? If we ever want to get married one day, I can't marry you if you're still married to him."

She looks to Jungkook and he nods.

"I'll get the papers tomorrow." She gives in, "Now my parents will be back soon. Tae, you have to get out of here before they see you."

I sigh, letting myself out, "Find me when you're ready."

____________

We bought a few train tickets to get far away from here. I had some family living in the more rural part of the country. I asked them if we could stay with for a bit and they didn't mind.

Tzuyu seemed nervous as we were basically running away from everything she's ever known. She was tense while we were on the train.

"It's gonna be okay." I say, holding her hand tight.

"What if they find us?" She asks.

"They can't hurt you, Tzuyu. I promise, I won't let them hurt you."

She leans her head on my shoulder. We had a long ride ahead of us.

"I'm sorry." She says suddenly, her voice breaking.

"Sorry?"

"I'm sorry for leaving you for so long. I never stopped loving you, Taehyung." She was crying at this point.

"It's okay." I comfort her, stroking her hair, "I knew we'd be back together. You're here with me now, that's all that matters. "

It took us a while to settle into our new life. Eventually, we were able to move out of my family's home and find our own place to stay.

Tzuyu's parents never bothered her again. I don't even know if they ever found her.

But we're happy now.

If her parents are upset that she's gone, they never should have been so controlling over her life. All she did was listen to them. This was the only time she couldn't go by their rules.

Now she gets to live her life how she wants. I don't know what we're going to do next, but I'm sure we'll figure it out.

All in the name of love.
