Remember to read chapter 56
(I posted it early this week)

"Hey y/n" the voice beckons.

You look up to be met with the burning gaze from Chanyeol's eyes.

"Eh- Hey?" You asked confused.

Why the hell was Chanyeol talking to you? He used to never speak directly to you.

But he did talk behind your back a lot.

Everyone did, calling you a loner and such.

But you just adapted to ignoring them.

"No boyfriend with you?" He smirked.

"He'll be here later" you nervously smiled.

He better freaking be here later.

"Ah, I see" he leaned against the kitchen counter beside you. "Who would've thought that our very own Park Jimin would choose you as his damsel in distress" he said in a mocking tone.

"What?"

"Well we all had to choose someone. I'm just surprised he chose you. We all thought he was pretty locked in with him and Alex's relationship" he explained, but you were still confused.

"Can you explain on your point? Otherwise I'm leaving" you said witha bored tone.

"All right foxy" he said teasingly.

"Don't call me that"

"All right, I won't princess" he smirked, seeing your annoyance.

"That's even worse"

"Well too bad. Princess isn't allowed have everything go her way" he said.

You rolled your eyes. "Just tell me what you meant before"

"Oh just the fact that before we made our special pact, he use to not like you. That's why we were surprised he chose you" you were beginning to get frustrated.

"Oh for goodness sake! Just tell me that whole story, from the beginning. No gaps, no snarky comments and no calling me princess"

He reaches over you, coming dangerously close to you. He noticed how you flinched a little.

"Calm down, I'm only getting a drink" he said returning to his original position with the red cup now in his hand.

You relaxed a little, seeing him leave your personal space.

"Can we go somewhere else?" He asked.

"Why?"

"Because I don't want to shout this entire story of the sound of people talking and this music" he stated.

You nodded slightly.

Before he left to find somewhere quieter, he filled up another red cup.

"You're not even finished the one already have" you stated.

He chuckled.

"This is for you princess, not me"

"I don't want an alcoholic drink" you said in a normal tone voice, hoping the sound of music and people dancing would drown out your voice, but it didn't.

"You're adorable. "An alcoholic drink" that's so innocent" he mocked.

He brought the drink with him anyways.

"Will we find a bedroom to talk in?"

You knew he didn't want to do anything with you, but if someone caught you, you would be dead meat.

"I know that you didn't intend for that to sound that way, but let's go somewhere else"

"What do you mean?"

"You want to come to a bedroom to chat, with drinks for the both of us"

He eyes widened in realization and his cheeks tinted pink.

"Okay, yeah let's not go in there" he laughed nervously. "How about the garden?"

You nodded and he led the way outside.

"Where do I begin?" He sighed. "Well about a month before you left, me, Jimin and the three others made a pact to date someone. We all had to do it to get the really annoying clingy girls off us"

Oh how bad his life must be, you rolled your eyes.

"So we all thought that Jimin already complete his end of the pact as he was dating Alex, but one day he said that he found some loser in his class that morning"

Loser.

Loser.

Loser.

Loser.

Loser?

Why would he think I'm a loser?, you thought.

He told you that he had liked you from the moment he laid eyes on you in the cafe and now he's telling his friends that he saw you, a loser apparently, on some random day.

That's so fucked up.

"And next thing we know he has new friends from home moving here and both you and him were out for a week. Then you came back but he didn't, and then Alex disappeared the next day" he said, reciting what happened in chronological order.

"Next thing we know Alex comes back to school, and now Jimin is back and he's dating you? The one he called a loser? I honestly don't get it" he said shaking his head from his confused.

"Yeah" you replied, even though you were completely out of the conversation.

"Did he call me anything else?" You asked zoning into the conversation again.

You were ready to burst into tears, ready to run away to somewhere quiet and tranquil and cry until no one could hear you.

You considered the thought of Chanyeol lying, but why would he, what would be the point?

Nevertheless, you needed to hear what he was going to say.

He looked hesitant.

"I don't know if I shou-"

"Tell me" you interrupted.

He sighed and looked sparingly at you.

"He called you...uh" he was clearly hesitant.

"Just spit it out!"

"A whore! Okay? He called you a whore" he shouted, but slowly calmed himself towards the end of his words.

"A- a what?" Your tears were beginning to drop from your eyelashes.

"A whore" he said quietly.

"Why on earth would he call me that?" You asked as your heart felt like it was going to burst.

"Because someone said something about you being poor, and then he said that you probably sold yourself for money" he said in a low, sympathetic voice.

And then, you grabbed the red cup which was filled for you, and chugged it.

"Woah, woah, slow down. You shouldn't be drinking that much in your first go"

Then you grabbed his drink from his hand and downed that too.

Unfortunately you didn't know that you were a lightweight.

You knew Jimin wasn't the nicest of people around, everyone in that group- when he was apart of it- were all dickheads.

But you thought he had changed.

You thought he loved you from the moment he saw you.

And all for what?

A pact?

"I have to go" you whispered.

"I don't think you should-"

"Well I am!" You shouted.

You ran inside, not giving a damn about Chanyeol, or Jimin, or anyone for that matter.

Screw everyone else.

You entered the back door and was met with the stench of alcohol again. Everything was fuzzy and disoriented, but you didn't focus on that, you just wanted to leave.

And everything was going well, you were near the door when someone familiar came into view.

"Muffin?"

There he was.

Standing by the door after just arriving.

With his incredibly good looks - but that was besides the point -

He smiled, that famous smile that you adored.

"What are you doing here?" He said happily.

And to think, you almost believed it.

This must have been the fake smile he has been using for the past few months.

"Muffin are you okay?" He asked, seeing your hazed state. "Woah, are you drunk"

You weren't drunk, just....tipsy?

Very tipsy at that.

You dodged his grabby hands and bolted for the door.

When you made it outside you just ran. You weren't heading in any particular direction, just somewhere.

Anywhere.

But unfortunately, drunk you isn't as fast as you think you are.

Jimin easily catches up to you.

He grabbed your arm.

"What's wrong with you?" He scolded.

"What wrong with me? What the hell is wrong with you!" You screamed.

"Babe what's wrong, why are you crying?" He asked worried.

"Oh please, give up the act" you scoffed.

"What do you mean-"

"So I'm a loser and a whore. Oh sure of course that's how I make my money apparently!" You mock and he sighs in realization.

"Which one told you?"

"What does that matter?" You cried.

"Muffin-"

"You don't love me" you wept. "I'm only part of your stupid pact. What? Did you think I was easy because I'm some stripper or am I a prostitute? Go on and tell me, considering you know everything about me" you screamed.

"Don't you ever say that I don't love you y/n, I love you with everything I have. I gave up everything I had for you" he explained his view.

"You said you loved me from the moment you saw me in the cafe months ago" you whispered.

"And I wasn't lying. You have to understand what has happened to me since I met you. I've changed in so many ways. I used to treat people so poorly, because that's all I ever knew, that's the environment I grew up in. But when you met me I was still that guy, but I swear it was like I changed over night"

"Why should I believe you?"

"Because y/n, the day we met I went to the cafe with Alex to see you after I mentioned you to my 'friends'" he said with quotations. "And ever since the moment I started talking to you I was hooked. Literally. I went to the cafe and walked you home every day and that one day I ran away when I was walking you home was because I realized my feelings for you, and I didn't know how to handle that" he explained.

You recall the memory.

"Please believe me, I know I was an ass and an absolute jerk, but Muffin I do love you and I did back then I just didn't know how to handle it" he said, wiping his thumb under your tired, red eyes.

"I don't know- I'm not really thinking clearly" you said seeing stars in your vision.

"How much did you drink?" He asked, seeing your face turn pale.

"Enough" you coughed.

"Maybe we should get you home" he whispered and you nodded. He picked you up and carried you home.

///

After about five minutes of Jimin trying to unlock your door with only one hand, he eventually got inside your apartment.

He carried you all the way to your room and placed you down on the bed, but you didn't I latch your arms from around him.

"Muffin" you whispered.

"Hmm?" You whispered half asleep.

"I'm a little bit stuck"

You let your arms unclasp from him and your drunken giggles filled the void of silence in the room.

"What?" He smiled, the feeling of sadness and guilt still evident in his voice.

"You're so cute" you said looking over at Jimin who was tucking you into bed.

"So are you Muffin" he kissed your head. "Now get some rest, I'll talk to you tomorrow" he said and you nodded.

"Okay" you sighed, feeling your consciousness fall.

"You know I love you, right?" He asked you in your sleepy state, hoping to get the honest answer.

"I know you love me, and I love you whole lot" you smile and he could feel his heart thump out of his chest.

"I'm so beyond happy that you know that and that you feel that way" he said soothingly.

"I'm glad, I like making you happy"

And that's the last thing you said before you fell asleep, and drifted off into a happier place.

A/N: I'm finishing this fanfic really soon by the way, high-key sad ngl :///

I took a chance with taking this turn in the story, and I know it took a dramatic change and it was fast. I only did it so I could get to an end somehow, the end will most likely not be good, but I'll try.

That's all I can do.

Thank you so much for reading,

Lots of love xx
