JIN

I looked at the bright smile on Jungkook's face when I had said that Taehyung sent me to help him.

I knew he really liked Taehyung and Taehyung liked Jungkook, but I don't think they realized their own feeling.

I rolled my eyes at their obliviousness.

I really liked Kookie and wanted him to be happy but I knew that I couldn't give him the happiness that he deserved.

I just hoped Taehyung confesses and doesn't mess anything up.

"B-bye Jin!"

I smiled sadly as I walked out of the room

"Bye Kookie."

I looked back one more time and watched Kookie blush and smile to himself.

I sighed.

I had remembered the hopeful look that Jungkook gave me when I had found him in the bathroom but it fell slightly and I knew why, he had wanted Taehyung.

I smiled weakly.

They were really cute and good for eachother and I wanted to help them with..whatever they have.

Ok! I'm gonna help Taehyung win Jungkook's heart!

Cuz...I'm his...friend....

I still remembered the conversation that we had at the ice cream place on Kookie's second day of school.

It felt like ages ago and I suppose it was.

~~~

'BTS' had been waiting for Jungkook to get to the ice cream shop and we had already ordered our ice creams.

When Jungkook had got there, we greeted him and Jimin immediately clung to him.

I had chuckled at them and complained to Yoongi about the children.

"They're so troublesome."

"Yeah.."

I looked at Yoongi when he replied quietly.

He had his eyes locked unto the kid who clung to Jungkook so tightly and I wanted to hug Yoongi.

Jimin was utterly oblivious to everything and seemed to love Jungkook like a puppy...aish...

"Yoongi..."

I rubbed his back when Jimin shared his ice cream with Jungkook and he had looked away, hurt flashing in his dark, tired eyes.

"Hyung, I don't know what to do anymore."

I nodded and gave him a hug.

"It's ok. I know he'll notice someday. He may be stupid and a complete idiot, but he can't be that slow..right?"

The younger just chuckled sadly.

"He can..."

The sound of Jimin and Jungkook's laughing could be heard and Taehyung's bickering too.

"And he will...."

Hoseok was laughing at the three dongsaengs.

"Because I've been doing this for 3 years..."

I wanted to cry at his sad voice, the voice of someone who held so much love for someone who didn't know for 3 years. The sound of a broken heart.

"And nothing's changed..."

I didn't know what to do and tried to hug Yoongi harder but he pulled away, smiling softly at us and saying he was gonna go outside for a bit.

"Get some air you know?"

Namjoon and Hoseok had nodded but Jimin continued to tease Jungkook and Taehyung stared at them a little angrily.

My heart broke.

I was the oldest so wasn't I suppose to do something?

But what was I suppose to do!?

I wanted to slap Jimin. Can't he see what he's doing to Yoongi?

I stared at Yoongi as his face fell when Jimin didn't even glance his way and he walked out of the ice cream shop.

Love hurts.

But sometimes.

You just can't help but fall.

I sighed heavily and took my time to stare at the situation in front of me.

Jimin's puppy love was being confused for something bigger and I hoped he didn't get hurt.

Hoseok looked tired as he attempted and failed to take Taehyung's attention away from Jungkook and Jimin and I felt a pang at my heart.

Namjoon was just looking at the ceiling sadly, and seemed to be thinking hard about something. Sometimes he would glance at me.

What was up with us today?

I saw glimpses of Yoongi walking along the parking lot, staring at his feet.

Another pang.

Taehyung was jealous at the JiKook couple and I bet he didn't even know it

And Jimin was staring adoringly at Jungkook, who seemed a little uncomfortable and annoyed, trying to push him away.

Stab.

This group was just full of sadness and unrequited love......

But I think that's why we stayed together....cuz we understood each others dilemma.

I sighed and stood up, pulling Jungkook away from Jimin's grabby hands and Taehyung's angry faces.

"Jungkook and I are gonna talk. Alone."

The standing Jimin's face fell when I had said alone and I shook my head.

I also liked Jungkook but I can't help but see what he's doing to this group.

Such a big impact.

He must be so important.

I led Jungkook to a table outside and waved at Yoongi, who was standing by the railing, looking out at the river. He just looked away from Jungkook and I.

Stab stab. Sigh.

"Jungkook- "

"Hyung, I'm really sorry!"

I looked surprised and annoyed. He interrupted me...to say sorry?

"For what?"

"Well....you looked angry with me yesterday and I thought I did something to upset you..."

I looked at the younger. His head was down and he was biting his lip.

I'm just confused with my feelings for you and what you're doing to me..to us..

"I was just tired and upset that Taehyung and Jimin were bothering you so much."

"Oh...No! They aren't bothering me! I'm happy to have them as friends, it makes me less lonely!"

I nodded slowly.

"And I really appreciate having you all as friends too! I thought I'd be lonely on my first day, you know?"

I smiled at the blush on Kookie's face.

"And Taehyung bought me lunch cuz I forgot it."

A small blush painted Jungkook's face and it made me look down.

"And I really appreciate you too!"

My eyes widened at what he said and he grabbed my hands excitedly.

"And you showed me around but I still got lost...."

I chuckled and turned away to hide my face.

"I just- I'm really happy cuz I lost a lot of my friends when I moved..."

I nodded.

"Then...are we friends?"

"O-of course hyung!"

Just friends...

"And will we be able to share things with eachother? Secrets, feelings, and stuff?"

"Yes!"

"Will we be close?"

"Yeah hyung...super close..."

I smiled sadly and nodded again, taking my hands out of his and putting them in my lap.

"Ah..yea....close friends.....sounds nice.."

I was glad Kookie couldn't hear the sadness in my voice or see the hurt that flashed across my face.

"So...what did you want to tell me? You didn't dragged me out here for nothing right?

I nodded slowly

"Yeah...I just wanted to uh- ask where you were yesterday. I saw you in the hall but that's about it."

"Oh!"

Kookie blushed and it didn't go unnoticed.

"I was....tutoring Taehyung you know? He said he needed help so.."

I looked at him shocked

So he really did it?

"Ah...I see..that's good."

Jungkook nodded

"Yeah.."

"Well did you go to his house?"

Another nod.

"So you know where he lived and probably his number too, right?"

More nodding.

Taehyung and him are so close now...

My heart did the strange clenching again, like yesterday.

"Then..I'll give you mine too! And you give me yours! We'll all get your number so we can all talk! Is that ok?"

The younger smiled brightly and nodded enthusiastically.

Hehe...cute....

And after we exchanged numbers, we went back inside to see Hoseok and Jimin bickering.

Aish...kids...

I looked to my side and saw Jungkook roll his eyes at them too.

I guess this begins our relationship....our friendship, for me and for BTS.
