Taehyung's P.O.V

" If you think you'll get away this time, you're in a delusion my friend.."

" I'm not.. I just want to clear things between us, and I don't have anyone to talk about these issues except you.."

" What about your long lost best friend Jimin?" He chuckles..

" Jimin literally got an idea that I'm the bad person in this story.. But how could I let him believe that I came to sort things, not to ruin.." I sigh..

" LMAO! I pity you.. All the time it's you who come in the blunder, and you're the one to blame.. Jokes apart.. What did you do this time?" Jungkook eases himself a little, and looks at me..

I take a deep breath, and say all the things I've bottled up in me for a long time.. Each and everything.. About me and Maya.. About my feelings for Areum.. Everything.. After listening to everything he raises his brow..

" So you told her everything but the main part, and how dare you to torture the readers like this? Why don't you finish everything in one go? What is this intermission in each chapter?" He shrugged his shoulders..

" Blame it on your dear friend okay? I wanted to clear everything between us, but she didn't listen.."

" And you thought I would?" I look at him with pleading eyes..

" Jungkook.. You want your friend to be happy right.. Tell me one thing, is Seokjin really gonna make her happy?"

" Why would he make her happy when she already broke up with him?"

" SHE DID WHAT??" I stand up from the seat..

" She didn't tell you? It's been nearly a week.." My mouth hangs open but then my face lightens up.. I look at Jungkook who thinks I'm being weird.. I sit beside him.. " My dear friend.." I eye smile..

" Yah get off!!"

" Jungkook.. My one and only dearest motherfu- I mean a good human being, and I'm blessed to have you as my friend.." He scrunches his nose..

" Who the fuck told you I'm your friend bitch!!" He tried to jerk me off, but I held his hand and pointed out his pinky, and intertwined with mine one.. " There, now we've become best friends!!" I smiled with my teeth out, and he just stopped reacting..

" The FUCK is your problem Taehyung!" He jerks his hand from me.. " Look, just help me this time.. I promise I'll clear everything between us.. This time it'll be Areum who'll decide what will happen to us, but not me, nor Seokjin, nor anyone, but her.. Please help me.." I hold his hand again..

He looks at me for some time with suspicious eyes.. " What do I've to do?"

" Where's she now?"

" With my girl, who she stole away from me.. I'm missing her already.." He pouts..

" Well, call her, and ask her where they can be.." Jungkook rolls his eyes, and calls her.. After being 10 minutes saying he's missing her, giving kisses on phone finally he hung up.. I looked at him with a disgusted face, when he just narrowed his eyes.. " A grumpy ass fart like you won't understand the gesture of love.. They're going to a party I guess.. She'll send me the address.."

I try to protest him, but stop.. " Let's go then.." I get up..

" For what?" I look at him and smirk..

" To steal our girls.." I wink..

----------------------------------------------

Areum's P.O.V

" There.. This will look good on you.." Yuri is showing me dresses for the party.. Holding a red dress in my hand, I observe her moves..

She has dragged me to her room for 'the talk', and after that she's just showing me her dresses.. I huff, and place the dresses beside me.. I've no interest in dressing myself up, I've already been tortured by Suzy.. That is enough for today.. " Umm Yuri, anything will be okay.. You don't need to show me your whole closet.."

" oh I insist.." She says, handing me another pile of dresses.. I groan lightly which definitely gets noticed by her..

" You're definitely his sister.. I don't believe in biological shits.."

" Your opinion doesn't matter, because I'm legally his sister.." I state..

" Feisty like the lovely brother ha?" She smirks, and sits on the bed..

" Care to tell me what you wanted to say, because if it's about your relationship with my brother.. I don't give a fuck about it.. It's your life you can do anything.. I've nothing to say in this.."

" Well I guess you do.."

I look at her.. " No I don't.."

" Yes you do Kuzi.. You've a lot to say in this matter.."

" 1st and last thing.. Do not ever call me with that name.. I fucking hate if anyone call me with this name except Oppa.."

" I guessed it right.." She smiles..

" What?" I knit my brows

" You're pissed off.."

" I'M NOT!!"

" You're Areum.. Which is why I brought you here to talk about everything.." I sigh, and nod at her to speak..

" I know what happened back in the institute.." Well definitely she would.. She's been working with Seokjin for years.. She knows everything..

" I'm here to talk about my family.. Not about someone else.. So cut to the chase.." I clench my jaw

" Areum I'm also here to talk about your family.. But your family is attached to me.. And the family member you're talking about.. Yoongi really is concerned about you, Areum.." My face softens..

" Look I understand you've so many things on your hand which keep you so blind that you can't see things properly.."

" Mean?" I ask..

She exhales heavily.. " I've been working with him since you came here.. The thing is, it's true he cares for you.. he maybe even loves you.. But don't you think that was odd just proposing to you then and there??"

" Yuri, sorry to break the ice like this, but I've already talked with him about this, and I broke up with him.. I'm also thinking about going back to Korea with Oppa.." Her face lightens a little..

" Did you tell Yoongi about it?"

" No.. He's not talking with me.. It's like I'm the one who hurt him, but it's actually me who got hurt.." I look on my lap

She puts a hand over my lap to get my attention" Look it's not like that.. He's not even talking with me.. It's true we still aren't in any official relationship.. But he trusts me so do I.. I think you should take the 1st step this time.."

" I'm too much confused with everything Yuri.. On top of that these two bitches are making my life hell.."

" Bitches?"

" I'm talking about your boss, and well Taehyung.. With whom the institute paired up for a project.."

" Oh that handsome fella.. Really he's so eye-catching.. I almost started drooling over him when-" She stops in the middle seeing my stare..

" By any chance, did I offend you?"

" What? No.. I was just listening to you carefully.. Sorry.." I blink sometimes, but she smirks..

" Anyway as you've no problem with me being your brother's girlfriend, then I can accept his proposal I guess.." She shrugs her shoulders..

" Why don't you ask permission from me too each time you fuck my brother as well?" I bitterly smile and roll my eyes..

" You should have told me that before last week.. You know.. we didn't need permission to fuck back then.." I gasp, and she starts laughing which makes me laugh too..

" Come'on.. Let's make you something.."

" Make me what?"

" You just said your life became a hell.. So why don't you also let yourself in, and be hot as hell.." She winks, but I don't get what she has pointed...

------------------------------------------------

" YURI I CAN'T WEAR THIS FOR FUCK SAKE PLEASE!!" I scream from the walk-in closet..

" What happened?" She asks..

" It's too revealing and short for me.. I can't wear this please.."

" You'll wear this.." She suddenly comes inside the change room, and I cover myself..

She purses her lips.. " I'm not here to fuck you, remove the cloth.."

" I-I'm not.."

" Comfortable?" She softly smiles.. She comes to me, and slowly removes the cloth from me, and checks me from up to toe.. Her gaze is making me crunch, making me so uncomfortable. I think she has just started judging me by my appearance..

"You telling me you're just hiding yourself for these scars? Please don't, I won't believe this.." I remain silent, and she takes that as a yes.. She exhales deeply, and holds my shoulder..

" This doesn't define you.. There's nothing wrong with having scars like this.. If people judge you by this, that's their toxic mentality.. That's not your problem.. Why do you feel so insecure about yourself?"

" I don't.." I shrug.. "It's like I'm comfortable with what I wear.. Can you please give me something like that?"

" Do you dress like this all the time? Even in your high school days?" I try to laugh but control myself. It was the high school time when everything was ruined..

Including me..

" Yuri, give me something like I usually wear.." I plead, and she thinks for a while, and nods..

" NO WAY IN HELL I'M WEARING THIS YURI!!" I shout again..

" Gurl will you stop it.. What's the problem here?"

" Can't you see it? It's off shoulder, and the slit? On top of that there's nothing to cover my back!! It's too much for me.. I can't wear this.."

" So what? It's not as revealing as the previous one.."

" But Yuri-"

" Areum, just try it once.. You're looking gorgeous please don't disappoint me.."

" But I can't-"

" Areum why don't-"

" YURI PLEASE FOR FUCK SAKE I SAID I CAN'T!!" I burst out.. She's literally forcing me to wear the dress but why do I wear something which will make me uncomfortable.. I walk past her, not trying to be rude, I stop myself..

" Listen Yuri.. I came here to talk with Dasom, not to make myself a clown that you-" I look back and stop, when she takes a makeup wipe, and starts rubbing her forearm with it.. The more she rubs it, the more I see some visible bruises, and marks on her skin.. My eyes widen when she looks at me..

" Just in case if you think you're the only one who has a brutal past.." She smiles at me.. " Stop living in nightmare love.. Trust me I've been there.. There's nothing good in there.."

She comes to me, and holds my face.. " You're beautiful, Areum.. Learn to praise yourself.. I don't know what the fuck happened with you, but I know at least it's you who can get back the previous you.. I assume you faced something worse than mine.. But there's nothing bad to make yourself better that also for yourself right?" She smiles, and starts dressing herself up..

My mind goes somewhere, drags me to thinking about today's incident.. Or should I be specific.. The words..

" These scars are the one that make you different from everyone out there.. That no one can beat you.. No one can be you.. Got it?"

" Stop living in a nightmare love.. Trust me I've been there.. There's nothing good in there.."

"Never ever show your weak side to anyone.. You carry the best version of yourself... No matter what happens, never let anyone feel that you've changed, or become weak.."

" I'm asking you to pamper yourself.. We buy these not to impress, but doll ourself up.. Why don't you do it too?"

" You're beautiful, Areum.. Learn to praise yourself.."

I look in the mirror for the 2nd time.. My scars are visible.. The bruises from last night can be seen too.. My hands, legs, shoulders are engraved with signs that proves me that I'm much more stronger than I think I'm.. The eye bags make me nothing less than a nun..

I look at Yuri who is applying foundation on her face.. " Cover them.." I ask, and she looks at me confusedly..

" The scars.." I smile.. "Cover them, Unnie.." Her eyes glisten, and her smile lights up hearing this.. I wipe the tears that fell on my cheek.. She takes the brush.. " From where should we start then?"

30 minutes later

" Okay now like this.."

" muah.."

" Ah this one better.." Me and Yuri come to the hall room where two beautiful ladies are taking selfies, after selfies that they haven't noticed us.. So I come behind them and cock my head between them.. " May I join?"

They stop, and raise their brow with a shocking face after seeing me.. " OH. MY. GOD!! Who is this lady?"

I flip my hair a little, and wink.. Yuri has curled my hair, gave me a smokey eye look with a nude lip.. A little hint of blush, and that's it.. It's been so long since I used makeup, but now as I do... Why doesn't it feel weird, as I thought it would be?

" My my I can't keep my eyes off you Areum.. Is this really you? " Dasom asks while checking on me..

" You guys don't look bad yourself.." Dasom has worn a half slit black velvet dress with stone working on it, where Suzy choses the most decent one.. An off shoulder gown.. And Yuri has worn a bodycon with pearl's design on the collar.. All of us are really looking beautiful.. After taking thousands of selfies, suddenly Suzy speaks..

" Umm but what's my reason for this sudden party? You all have something to play as a card.. What about me?" She shrugs..

" You just got the love of your life back, right? What else do you need to celebrate Suzy?" I ask, making her blush..

" Okay ladies, the car is here.. Shall we go?"

" Roger that Queen.." Suzy winked, and we all laughed, and headed to the club..

------------------------------------------

The place is already jammed with people, but all of their attention gets on us when we enter the dance floor.. We walk past it, and sit on the bar..

"So who's gonna place the bet?" Yuri asks..

" What bet?"

" Who's getting wasted 1st from all of us?" She smirks..

" I'm placing my bet on Dasom.." Suzy says..

" Then mine will be on you.." Dasom replies

" Okay then mine will be on Areum.." Yuri says..

" Get ready to lose already.." I smirk.. The bartender comes to us, and takes our order.. I look around.. So many people.. Some have come to enjoy, some to spend time, some to live the life, and some are like me to forget everything, and live the time..

I sigh, and drink a little.. I can keep myself sober up more than any other alcoholics.. Thanks to Jonathan who let me just drink for days, didn't give me actual food because sometimes I refused to sleep with someone.. Sometimes bad things might work I guess.. I look at the girls who are gossiping, I'm joining them now and then.. They're really fun type people..

" One Rose Sangria please, without ice.." Someone beside me orders something..
But the voice..
That husky voice..
The voice that can make you on your knees, but not me.. I can't be mistaken it's him.. It's definitely him.. I look beside me, and I definitely am right..

" Last time I remembered I told you not to come anywhere near me.." I say with a straight face, when he looks at me..

Taehyung's P.O.V

The whole evening I waited for Suzy's text.. She doesn't even know where they're heading to.. She turns on the location of her phone, by that we've found the club address..

I already take the best get up I could hold.. I'm gonna take my girl today.. No matter what happens.. I'm not going to let her go this time.. It's between me, and my ability.. The minute I heard that she broke up with that douche bag.. I took this as a chance for me as well.. If I can't sort out things with her before Seokjin does.. I'm losing her forever.. Which I can't let happen..

My phone buzzed off with her message.. I've told her everything, and she has given me the idea of using the chance I'm having without even asking..

My Purple Heart💜💜

" Did you leave already?"

" Nah I'm getting ready.. Any comments?" I take a selfie and send it to her..

" Ooooooo~~ You're slaying King.. 

Go get your queen back!!"

" I love you so much Maya.."

" I love you too babe.. 

Now don't make her wait much longer.." 

I smiled when Jungkook told me we're leaving..

The minute I step inside the club, my eyes start searching for her.. And I can't be mistaken.. I can sense her when she's close to me.. My heart starts beating so fast, and it only stops when I see her face, as I see her right now.. The place is smoky, and the lights are dimmed as well.. But still I can see a bunch of girls, and there's standing my queen bee.. I look at her closely and-

HOLY MOLY FUCK!!! That's the only thing I could say after seeing her.. This is the 1st time I'm seeing her in any kind of party dress! With off shoulders, and the slit? FUCK ME!!

She's giggling with others, and sipping her drinks now and then.. Her slit on her dress is really making me crazy.. It's giving a little view of her beautiful legs, then again hiding it from me.. Her curves feels like someone has shaped them with proper measurement.. In that dark blue dress she's really looking Hot as Hell..

I haven't realized my mouth is hang open, with widen eyes, when Jungkook lifts my chin, closing my mouth, and dragging me to reality.. " You're so shameless. You're here for someone, and you're drooling over some other girl.." I smirk..

" If you look closely, you'll feel ashamed that you mixed your best friend with someone else.." He knits his brows, and looks where I'm looking at.. After a while he gasps loudly.. I wave in front of his eyes, and start walking to the bar, where they are chilling..

" One Rose Sangria please, without ice.." I say, which obviously catches her attention.. She looks at me.. I look at her when she says something, and suddenly I get hypnotized..

I never saw her using makeup, that is also the heavy one .. Her smoking eyes are taking my sanity.. She's hiding all of these for whom? Why didn't she show her this side to me when she took care of me? Well even without it.. I'm still head over heels for her..

She snaps her fingers, and I blink a little.. " You're becoming a creep day by day you realize that?" I laugh.. " I can't help, baby.. If being around you makes me creep, then be it.." I sip my drink..

She rolls her eyes.. " Why are you here?"

" Areum don't be so full of yourself okay? I'm here with my friend, and I accidently bumped into you.." I click my tongue..

She flatten her lips.. " Where's your dearest friend, may I know?"

I look past her, and she follows my eyes to see Jungkook has already gotten Suzy, and they are giggling like some clingy couple.. He looks at Areum..

She groans, and looks at me with a puckered face.. I shrug my shoulders.. She drinks her whole glass in one go, and asks for another one, showing me her back.. She's making me insane.. Then why don't take revenge?

She moves her hair from the back, and her exposed back comes in front of my eyes.. I haven't noticed it till now.. I can't help myself when I see her back this much closely.. I'm a man, it makes me things.. I can't help it for fuck sake she's already making me insane when I haven't even started to talk with her..

Areum, you'll pay for this I swear..

I slowly move my hand on her back, placing my fingertip a little like not even touching her.. And suddenly caresing lightly which makes her flinch.. She looks back at me with deadly eyes, and shoves her hair on her back, to hide it from my view.. I smirk.. I slowly move her curly hair, placing my hand all over her back, when she faces me..

" THE FUCK IS YOUR PROBLEM TAEHYUNG!!!" She screams which catches the attention of others.. I smirk..

" Our dress color matched, did you notice that? I was calling your name but you didn't listen, so I had to call you like this.." I smile sinisterly..

" If I knew you would be here I would never come here, let alone matching the dress color.." She fists her hands, takes her clutch.. " I'm going to the restroom.." She eyes me and leaves the place.. Guess I hit a nerve lol!!

A/N P.O.V

After 15 minutes she comes back only to find no one is at the bar.. All of them are on the dance floor, jamming up with the song.. Taehyung already notices her, but when she does, he starts playing his game..

Taehyung is dancing with a really hot girl.. Being so close to her.. She glues her back with him, when he holds her waist firmly.. Resting his chin on her shoulder, they're moving their bodies with the rhythm.. Taehyung can sense Areum's gaze over him.. He's not even looking at her.. He focuses on the girl he's dancing right now..

Areum on the other hand is feeling cold from the inside.. Her heart feels cold to her.. It's true she will never accept her feelings to Taehyung, but she loves him.. But Taehyung doesn't deserve this actually.. Still she's feeling hurt seeing him being comfortable with anyone but her.. What would happen if she would be with him, instead of her?

He spins her around and makes her face him.. She's giving him all kinds of signals to take her somewhere quiet and wrecks her then and there, but Taehyung has other plans on his mind.. He pulls her close to him, closing the gap, and slightly looks at Areum, who is blankly watching his moves..

He fixes his eyes on the girl, she's saying something he doesn't even understand.. He's smiling, and praising how hot, sexy she is.. Girls like compliments that also from a handsome man like him.. Game over!!

He looks at where Areum is standing to find out she isn't there anymore.. He searches for her for a while but can't find her.. He stops dancing, which makes that girl ask him repeatedly what happened.. He kisses her cheeks lightly saying he'll be back only to give her false hope, because he's not coming back anytime soon..

He starts searching the whole place, looking for her but she's nowhere to be found, when he suddenly sees her.. But what he sees makes his jaw clenched..

Areum is dancing with someone towering her.. Holding her waist, touching her curves, and by his surprise she's letting him do that.. All he was doing just to make Areum jealous over him, because he knows pretty well how much he means to Areum.. She's just upset with her, and he's ready to do anything to sort things out with her..

But Areum would never let anyone touch her, except it's someone she knows personally.. Then who's this is? She still doesn't see him.. Taehyung fists his hands, and waits for her to notice him, and she does..

Areum gets startled a little by seeing him like this.. His eyes are dark like black hole.. Just one strike, and he'll burst out in anger, and may do something she doesn't want to.. Or does she?

Areum tears her gaze from him, focusing on the man who is giving her sweet compliments from the beginning.. After seeing Taehyung with someone, she comes to the bar, and starts drinking again, when a man comes to her, and asks her if she wants to dance, because he's alone as well.. She hesitates a little, but accepts, and they move to a quiet place, and start moving their bodies with the music, when the man holds her waist.. She flinches of course, but she isn't feeling weird with him, so she lets him do what he's doing..

Areum turns, and lets her exposed back touch his torso.. His hand doesn't leave her waist.. He's thinking that today is his lucky day.. Maybe he finally has found someone who may do something more than a one night stand..

But his dream ruins in a splits of second, when Taehyung grabs Areum's wrist, and pulls her away from him.. Glaring at her with deadly eyes, he gives pressure on her wrist.. " The fuck you think you're doing?" He grits..

" None of your business.. Leave my hand.." She tries to jerk off his hand but he gives even more pressure on it, which will obviously leave scars on her wrist..

" If there is anything in my business, it's you.. What do you think you're doing?"

" Are you her boyfriend, or something? If not then leave her hand.. You can't treat her like that.." That man says..

" Who the fuck is talking to you? Back off!!" Taehyung growls.. Areum is still struggling to move her hand, but Taehyung doesn't leave her..

" Taehyung the fuck do you want? Why are you reacting like this? Fucking leave my hand!!" Areum doesn't scream that much louder, but people start to notice them..

" I'm reacting like this? What're you doing huh? How shameless you could be?"

" I'm being shameless?? What you did, you might forget ha? It's you who always do these shameless types of works, and you're calling me shameless? Oh how much hypocrisy I've to see from you!!" Taehyung suddenly loses his grip on her.. Areum is about to snatch her hand from him, but he holds it again..

" I'm shameless right?" He says with a cold tone...

" Want me to write it to you? Leave. My. Hand.." Areum glares at him, but Taehyung smirks..

" As you've already labeled me as a shameless person, now why would I stop to show how much shameless I could be?" His sinister smile makes her stop struggling with her hand.. She gulps a little by seeing his eyes, and that smile.. Something definitely is going on in his mind, and she's sure that won't be good for her..

" What are you talking abo- AHHH!!" Taehyung suddenly holds her lower legs, lifts her up on his shoulder, and starts walking..

" WHAT THE FUCK TAEHYUNG PUT ME DOWN!!!" Areum is screaming but he doesn't listen..

" PUT ME DOWN!! HELP!!!!" She started hitting his back, but he didn't dodge.. Rather he left a hard slap on her ass, that made her yelp..

" TAEHYUNG WHAT THE- AHH!!" He slaps her round butt once again..

" The more you'll scream, the more I'll spank you.." With another slap he says.. Except Jungkook nobody notices the whole scene due to the loud music.. Suzy sees Jungkook is looking somewhere, so she hits his chest..

" Whom are you checking out, that is also in front of me?" Jungkook smirks, and pecks her lips. " When I've got world's most sexy girl in front of me, why would I need to see other girls.."

" Then?" Suzy gets confused..

Jungkook smirks.. " Someone is getting laid today after a long time, baby.." With that he kisses her lips..

Taehyung puts Areum in his car.. Her butt is aching from having so much slaps from him.. She hisses a little, and about to get up, when Taehyung locks the door..

" What is your fucking problem?" She asks, trying to get away from the car.. Taehyung doesn't listen to her, and sits on the driving seat, and starts the engine..

" Taehyung fucking sto-" Before she finishes her words, Taehyung holds her nape of the neck. He pulls her close and takes her lips in his, and kisses her deeply.. Biting her lips a little, makes her hissed in pain, he parts from her..

" Utter another word, and I'll kiss you again.. And just to let you know, I won't control myself as I'm doing right now.." Taehyung glares at her, and drives off from the club, having Areum in her flustered state..
