"Why? Tell me why!!?"

I remember shouting and banging the door with all my strength. I remember crying while shamelessly begging in front of that door.

"Please....open the door...just..."

I tried to speak in between my sobs as I fell on my knees, softly knocking on the door.

"Just please...please talk to me."

I pleaded though I knew he wouldn't listen. I've been doing this for days and I want to keep on doing this until he'd talk to me.

"Hey...Why?"

I softly asked. I felt no strength to even speak anymore. I just don't understand why must this happen. He told me that he'd never leave, that we'll go through everything together, that no matter what, he will still love me.

"You said you were scared that I'd leave you someday.....look who's leaving."

I sarcastically laughed and took a deep breath.

"Please...open this door..please."

I mumbled and after a moment, I heard a click from the door which seemed to open as I slowly raised my head while squinting my eyes at the bright light.

"Hey! Hey!!"

I heard voices and I blinked a few times to make my vision clearer.

"He's alive!! Oh my god! Thank goodness!"

I looked at the two guys who looked relieved, breathing heavily as I looked around, realizing what happened.

I was driving then suddenly, the truck appeared and thanks to my fast reflex, I steered the wheels quickly, hoping to avoid the impact. Fortunately, my car crashed on a tree and I survived with only a scratch and a dented bumper but my nose slightly hurt because of the airbag and I think I lost consciousness for a while.

"Hey kid! Let's go to the hospital!"

The old man said while looking so nervous and concerned.

"No need. I'm okay."

"But-"

"I said I'm okay."

I replied and closed the car door before starting the car and driving away, ignoring whatever they're saying.

"What the fuck Jeon Jungkook."

~•~•~••~•~•~

Taehyung entered the house slightly pushing past the crowd until he saw Hoseok who was waving his two arms and smiling brightly. Honestly, even though it's dark and only the hanging disco balls illuminate the house, Hoseok still shines brightly.

"Hyuuuung!"

Taehyung yelled while running towards his friends who were at the balcony. Hoseok was having a cola while Jin was drinking a cocktail and Namjoon was drinking something stronger.

"Yow Taetae! You're late!" Hoseok stated.

"Hi Hobi hyung! Uhmm I got lost on the way so...." Taehyung answered with an embarassed tone and chuckle.

"That's the typical Taehyung." Namjoon commented smiling while shaking his head as he took another shot of his drink.

"That's why I was so worried when you said you wouldn't go together!" Jin said looking so worried.

"It's okay! I'm here now! But...where's Jimin and Yoongi hyung? I haven't seen them yet." Taehyung asked excitedly.

"I don't know but maybe Jimin is at the middle of the dance floor and Yoongi is somewhere less crowded." Hoseok answered.

"I see...Well, since they aren't answering their phones, I'll go search for them." Taehyung said and went ahead excitedly to search for his friends.

He went to the dance floor which is literally just the huge living room. But before he got there, he got lost multiple times, opening doors and seeing things he shouldn't have seen, entering rooms that have different groups of people enjoying their own things, some are smoking and some are playing games.

He was really tired of looking around while trying to avoid the sexual remarks and actions of others who were eyeing him seductively.

Jungkook's house is really big and he's living only with his butler. Taehyung was new to his house since he just started living alone when he entered university and that's why Taehyung didn't know the way....or...he just normally gets lost on his own that's why we couldn't blame people who thought of installing GPS in his brain.

At least he finally opened the right room, seeing the people dancing randomly to the loud music which is controlled by Jackson who was at the mini DJ booth.

He was wondering on how to look for his friends in the dancing crowd but he suddenly got an opportunity when Jackson changed the music to a classic slow love song, making the crowd calm down and it made it easier for Taehyung to move around.

He was trying to get through the people who started dancing sweetly with their partners, feeling the song until someone pulled his arm, his back hitting someone's chest.

"Hey...Wanna dance?"

The man turned Taehyung around and smiled at him sweetly.

"Do you remember me?"

"Uhmmmmmm...ah!"

Taehyung gasped in surprise when he realized that the guy in front of him is his classmate from middle and high school and who was actually one of the closest friend he had.

"You're back!!"

He exclaimed as his doe eyes sparkle in excitement and blissful feeling.

"Yes! I just came back from America yesterday and I heard from Namjoom that Jungkook will have a house party and he said I should come and so I did! I'm so happy to see you!"

"Me too!"

"I wanted to contact you but all of your accounts were suddenly deleted. What happened?"

"Uhmm...it's a long story."

"So, where's your boyfriend? Where's Jungkook?"

"Uhhh..."

"Taehyungieeee~"

Taehyung was cut off when he saw Jimin going towards them while dragging Jungkook.

"Jiminie! Congratulations!!"

He gave Jimin a quick hug and Jimin did the same but after they let go of each other, Jimin noticed the tall guy behind Taehyung.

"Jungkook?"

The tall guy said while eyeing Jungkook up and down and Jungkook did the same.

"Oh my god! It's you!"

Jungkook exclaimed and they quickly bro-hugged each other while big smiles were plastered on their faces.

"I just came back yesterday. So you and Tae-"

"THIS IS JIMIN!"

Taehyung cut him off by suddenly raising his voice and tugging the his arm to face Jimin who looked a little puzzled.

Jungkook then snaked his arm around Jimin's waist.

"This party is my gift for my baby boy because he worked hard for his recital, right?"

He stated while looking at his lover who was starting to blush really hard.

"I see...so that's how it is."

The tall man muttered to himself as he took a glance at Taehyung's forced smile.

"Hi! I'm Bogum."

He said as he handshaked with Jimin. After they let go of each other's hands, he smirked and suddenly pulled Taehyung into a hug, Taehyung's face was pressed on his broad chest as his arms wrapped around the younger's torso.

"And I really like Taehyung!"

Bogum proclaimed which made the three widen their eyes in shock. Taehyung was frozen as he felt the heat rising from his neck to the tip of his ears while Jimin was shocked but soon became giddy, already fan girling on his newly found ship.

Meanwhile, the other one was shocked but for some reason, he felt heavy. He felt irritated and pissed...he felt that something inside him was triggered.

"G-gummie hyung..."

Taehyung finally spoke while softly pushing Bogum's chest.

"Ohh..yeah..uhmm..Nice to meet you Jimin! And Jungkook, thanks for this party! We're just gonna enjoy!"

Bogum said and before Taehyung could utter anything, he was already dragged to the middle of the dance floor, leaving the couple, one is happy but confused while the other is feeling extremely irritated and anxious.

Meanwhile, Bogum was hugging Taehyung as they both made small steps and sways, matching the slow love song.

Taehyung didn't hugged back but he lets his head rest on the crook of Bogum's neck.

"Hyung...why did you-"

"Just let me comfort you. I know the others already did but now...I am the one who's here...just let me."

Back then, even though Bogum and Taehyung had different circle of friends, from time to time, they would all hang out together that's why Namjoon and the others were also his friends.

Taehyung hummed in response and Bogum tightened the hug and the other didn't mind since Bogum had always treat him like that. He smiled weakly when he remembered how jealous Jungkook was everytime Bogum was around but because of their family business, Bogum had to move abroad when they were sophomores in high school.

He was always caring and touchy when it comes to Taehyung. He really likes Taehyung but at some point, he just likes teasing Jungkook.

"I don't know what happened but it's clear that you two aren't together anymore...and obviously, you still love him."

Taehyung tensed up as his eyes widen while he bit his lip.

"But hyung...he's already..."

Taehyung raised his arms and hugged back.

"I know."

Bogum softly said before landing a gentle kiss on Taehyung's head.

They stayed like that for awhile until the song changed into another lively party song and before the crowd start to get wild, Bogum dragged Taehyung away from the dance floor and they went to seat at the bar counter which rich houses normally have.

"Do you want- Oh, I remember you can't drink liquor."

Bogum said and Taehyung smiled at him. He was just happy to be with Bogum but he also liked others to be with them.

"Hyung, have you seen Namjoon hyung and the others?"

"There."

Taehyung turned his head to where Bogum was pointing and he saw his friends being the usual them, Hoseok being extra, dancing widely while creating different noises at the middle of the dance floor while Jin and Namjoon were having their dance battle.

Yup. They are his friends.

Taehyung was laughing while watching them. Suddenly, he jolted when he felt something cold pressed on his cheek.

"Here." Bogum gave him a strawberry juice.

"Thanks hyung!"

He drank it happily while Bogum watched him adoringly. He noticed the looks on the older's eyes and his cheeks flashed a cute color of pink.

"W-why? Is t-there something on my face?"

"Taehyung...I believe I told you this before I left."

He slowly raised his hand to caress Taehyung's cheek while their gazes were directed at each others.

"And I meant it...I really like you."

He said and Taehyung froze on the spot, not knowing what to say or do as he felt his heart beating so fast and his head started getting fuzzy with the mixed emotions he's suddenly forced to face. He's happy, shocked, confused and flattered at the same time.

Bogum leaned closer...slowly, their faces were getting closer by each second.

Bogum paused as he felt Taehyung's breath against his lips. He closed his eyes and pressed his lips against the younger who remained frozen at the moment.

It was just a pure soft kiss, lips pressed against each other without moving.

They stayed like that for awhile until Taehyung snapped out of his thoughts and backed away.

He averted eye contact and tries to hide his beet red face.

"Uhmm...hyung sorry. I just need to go to the comfort room."

He stated and sprinted away. He ran and ran and realized that he ended up on an empty hallway.

"Where am I?"

He asked himself and continued to walk until he heard voices. He followed the noise that seemed to be in the next hallway...and that time, he honestly regrets his decision.

He saw Jungkook passionately kissing Jimin in front of a door that Taehyung assumed to be Jungkook's bedroom.

He stood there watching Jungkook hungrily kiss Jimin as if he was craving for his taste but his vision blurred as tears started welling up.

Please move..

Move..

C'mon!

Why?

My legs aren't listening to me.

I can't move...

Please...move...

I thought I got used to it...

But I guess I haven't.

No matter how far I reach for you,
It is just an empty dream dream dream
No matter how crazy I run,
I remain on the same place place place
Just burn me! Yes, push me out!
This is crazy-fool’s love running
