NO ONE'S P.O.V.

Namjoon gave the two boys a lecture of their life time that they wouldn't be making the same mistake in next three lives. Jin being there as well was just cherry on top. It felt like they were their actual parents.

When Jungkook and Taehyung left the room they had absolutely no voice left. They hadn't even had breakfast yet and their tummies already felt full with the scolding.

"What did he say?" Jimin came up as cheerful as always but seeing the color drained from the other two's faces he piped down.

"Is everything alright?"

"I'm not gonna touch anything here without asking hyung again." Taehyung said with a shudder and Jimin's giggles started.

"Do you have any idea what he said to us?" Taehyung glared at him.

Taehyung and Jimin started their childish fight and didn't notice Jungkook slipping away silently. He made his way to his room and locked the door. He knew he had to share it but he still did it, anyways.

Jungkook went to wash up, first since he hadn't done that properly yet what with all that hangover and stuff. When he came out he looked around aimlessly before sitting on the bed. Everything seemed to be happening in slow motion, now. He felt like he had lost all energy.

/What the hell happened today?/

He just sat there looking ahead at the plain wall as if it was for his therapy.

*knock knock*

His gaze shifted to the door but he didn't move.

*knock knock*

After the second time he slowly moved to open the door and saw Hoseok standing there.

"Hey- What happened to you?"

Jungkook only shook his head and moved back to his spot.

Hoseok watched as the boy moved around like a corpse and even looked like a corpse. The only thing that he could gather from it was that Namjoon must have given him a pretty hard time.

"Did hyung say something?" Jungkook didn't respond. Now Hoseok was sure it was exactly the case. So, he came closer and sat next to him putting his hand on the younger's back.

"It's ok, Kookie. He was just worried about you, you must understand that. He didn't mean to hurt you or anything. He just wanted to-"

"Taehyung kissed me."

Hoseok blinked his eyes at him.

"What?"

"Taehyung kissed me." Jungkook repeated like a robot.

"WHAT?"

Now he heard him right.

"Taehyung kis-"

"I heard that. But when, where, how, why?" He was getting louder and louder while Jungkook was just sitting there with a blank expression.

"Come on. Tell me, already~" Hoseok whined.

"Taehyung ki-"

"Kookie if you say say that one more time I'm gonna hit you." Hoseok went from soft to hard in a second and he really looked like he was about to hit him as he gripped the younger's shoulders tightly and stared at his shocked eyes.

"Hobiii you'll never guess what Taehyung- " Jimin barged in fully pumped but stopped in his tracks when he saw Hoseok and Jungkook sitting on the bed with Hoseok holding the younger by his shoulders and their faces only inches apart. In a split second Jimin held Hoseok by his collar and lifted him up.

"What do you think you are doing? He's Taehyung's."

Hoseok held his hands up in the air in surrender and shook his head vigorously.

"I know I know. I wasn't doing anything. I swear."

And Jimin let him go after a hard glare.

Then both of them turned towards Jungkook who looked like he didn't just witness that. He was still looking like a corpse. Jimin plopped on the bed beside Jungkook and held his neck in his arms.

"Jungkookie~ Why didn't you tell me about it?"

Jungkook looked at him like Jimin had grown two heads.

"What? Why aren't you happy? You liked Tae too didn't you?"

"I did?"

And now Jimin was looking at Jungkook as if he had grown two heads.

"Are you serious right now?" Hoseok looked like he was about to burst any second now as he screeched.

"How can you be so oblivious? We saw you staring at him multiple times, you were practically choking on your own spit the other day and other stuff. What the hell is all that supposed to mean?" Jimin's arms were flying around haphazardly and it seemed like they would be flying away from his body at any moment.

Jungkook just blinked at them trying to take in all that since it was happening so fast that he wasn't able to keep up.

"Can you give me a minute?" Hoseok and Jimin paused instantly at Jungkook's sudden faint request and before Jimin could say anything further Hoseok was dragging him out with him, covering Jimin's mouth with his free hand.

"Tell us when you are feeling good, okay?" and with that Hoseok closed the door behind him.

Jungkook took in a deep breath and laid back down.

/This is the craziest day of my life./

He closed his eyes and breathed in and out slowly trying to relax. He needed to relax first. Everything was too overwhelming and he couldn't think straight in panic mode. He waited for his breathing to calm down before he started thinking.

Time ticked by and he went over everything in details using the silence to soothe himself whenever he felt like freaking out, again. After a very long time of pondering he finally sat up.

"Okay. I got this." And with that he got up and out of the room looking for a certain someone.

When he spotted the familiar tuft of hair he took in a deep breath and moved towards them.

This was it.

This was his decision.

This was his conclusion.

Everything made sense now.

And he was going to do exactly what he decided.

He walked over and when he was only a few meters away he stopped.

Could he really do this?

Is this really right?

Should he do this?

Those doubtful words of his conscience made his feet stagger. His determined look dropped and he started to question himself. And he turned around and was about to leave as quietly as he came, when he was held back by a familiar voice. Taehyung's voice.

"Jungkook!"

/Well fuck./

He turned around looking unfazed as if he wasn't expecting anyone else to be there.

"Yeah?"

Taehyung jogged over to Jungkook but his smile dimmed when he saw Jungkook's bored face.

"You.. You haven't eaten yet, right?"

Jungkook only gave a nod.

"The others already ate so it's just you and me left."

Jungkook just blinked at him before saying the words he didn't want to say.

"I'm not hungry."

And Taehyung's heart clenched at the cold tone.

"Oh."

Before Taehyung could say anything Jungkook turned around to leave. He was barely managing to keep his straight face and only seeing Taehyung from a far made his senses blur. How was he supposed to keep it together when Taehyung was standing so close to him? He had to leave and think about his strategy, again.

Jungkook hadn't walked much distance when Taehyung rushed his feet and came to stand in front of him.

"Kookie I'm sorry for doing that. Please don't ignore me like this. Let's... Let's just forget about it hm?" Taehyung was so desperate that his words were dripping with it but the impassive look on Jungkook's face put him on the verge of tears.

"Please Kookie? Let's just forget about it and go back to being friends? Please? I'm really sorry and I promise I won't do anything stupid, again. Please Kookie?" Taehyung's eyes were brimming with tears but Jungkook couldn't look at him. His gaze was fixed on the ground behind Taehyung and his silence remained which persisted even after Taehyung stopped talking.

When Jungkook didn't speak Taehyung took in a deep breath as he held onto the tears that were threatening to drop and mumbled an apology one last time before turning away to leave.
