Starting my first story
Taehyung didn't notice it at first.
It slipped out quietly-from between the pages of his notebook-and landed near his shoe.
Taehyung frowned and bent down to pick it up.
Tae
"Why is this here...?"
He was sure.
Absolutely sure.
He didn't carry flowers.
kook
Did you leave already??
Taehyung stared at the petal resting on his palm before replying.
kook
Okay. Text me when you reach home.
Taehyung typed okay... then paused.
He looked at the petal again.
Tae
Jungkook.
Were you near my desk today? 🤔
kook
What kind of something?
Taehyung hesitated, then sent a photo.
A single rose petal on his notebook.
The typing bubble froze for a long second.
Just one word.
Taehyung's heart beat faster for no reason.🫀💓
kook
If I say yes... will you throw it away?
Taehyung looked at the petal again.
He didn't know why, he thought of throwing it away felt wrong.
The typing dots blinked... blinked... then disappeared.
Taehyung thought Jungkook wouldn't reply.
kook
Because giving a full rose is scary.
But a petal...
a petal doesn't demand anything.
Taehyung's fingers tightened around his phone.
Tae
This is the first one.
Taehyung slid the petal carefully back into his notebook.
Tae
I'll keep it.
But don't make it a habit.
On the other side of the city, Jungkook smiled softly.
Taehyung didn't know it yet-but that single rose petal was the beginning of everything.
Rose petal {2}
Taehyung stood near the window, the city lights blurring into soft gold. In his hand lay the second rose petal-slightly curled at the edges, as if it had already lived a small life before reaching him.
He should have thrown it away.
But instead, he opened his diary.
Two petals now rested between the pages.
Two quiet confessions Jungkook hadn't spoken aloud.
Tae
Why are you doing this to me?
He whispered, though Jungkook wasn't there to hear it.
kook
Taehyung leaned against the wall, fingers tightening around the phone.
Tae
You're not even trying to hide it anymore.
kook
Because I want you to notice.
Taehyung closed his eyes.
All his life, love had been loud-expectations, demands, heartbreak. But this? This was quiet. Soft. Dangerous in its gentleness.
Later that evening, Taehyung met Jungkook by chance in the corridor. Their eyes met for a second too long.
kook
"Did I... cross a line?" he asked softly.
Rose petal {3}
Tae
. "I don't know where the line is anymore."
Jungkook's gaze fell to Taehyung's bag.
kook
You Kept it, didn't you?"
Taehyung didn't answer. He just turned and walked away.
But when Jungkook returned to his room that night, he found something on his desk.
And beneath it, written in Taehyung's handwriting:
[If you keep leaving pieces of your heart with me, don't be surprised if I start holding onto them.]
Jungkook smiled, heart racing.
This wasn't just about petals anymore.
It was about two people slowly learning how to fall-
[The dried rose petals remind me of the time passed...]
