29| everything alright?

*ding dong*

"bogum! can you please open the door, it's an old friend of your father!"

bogum groaned annoyed and got up of the couch, to go and open the door like his mother requested. his eyes widened though when he recognized the man's face. "junghyun!" he engulfed him into a hug out of surprise and smiled widely.

"hello, big boy. you've grown up so much, bogum." junghyun smiled, patting the boy's shoulder. "you were like 12 when i saw you for the last time, how old are you now? 74?"

bogum laughed. "20 to be exactly."

"well i wasn't far from that, was i?" junghyung joked.

"just 54 years, but isn't that far." bogum laughed.

"ah junghyun, my old friend, how have you been?" the third male that arrived said.

"seojoon, nice to meet you after such a long time." they hugged each other brotherly.

"how is jungkook?" seojoon then asked and jungkook's father visibly stiffened. "jungkook is fine, but i didn't got to see him much lately. that boy has become an adult, made his own life. found a nice lover..." he glanced to bogum at the last part, who didn't seem to get what he was trying to tell him.

"he lives here in seoul now, i visited, that's why i'm here."

soon they were sitting on the dinner table, mr and mrs park, bogum and mr jeon in front of each other.

"you said your son is in a relationship? i wish bogum could find someone soon."

bogum rolled his eyes.

junghyun saw bogum's expression and smirked. "yes, jungkook really did find a good boyfriend. i heard he goes to the same school as you bogum... what was his name? was it taemin? taeyong? ah no wait, it's taehyung!" he laughed and the others on the table stopped talking, looking at bogum who seemed tense.

"oh, so... kim taehyung?" bogum's mother asked and mr jeon nodded. he smiled victoriously when he saw bogum fuming in anger.

"bogum? do you know taehyung?" he asked, trying not to laugh out loud.

the boy sighed. "n-no, i don't, who is that?"

junghyun smirked but kept his mask. "oh you must know him! he is this tall, shining silver hair, i have to admit he's one pretty guy. he's also in your age, at least you've seen him before."

"okay, junghyun? do you want some more steak?" ms park asked the man.

"i'll go wash my hands." bogum said and jumped up and left the room.

"excuse me seojoon, ara, i'll be back." junghyun also got up, went to the wahsroom where he found an angry bogum splashing water into his face. junhyun leaned against the door frame and watched with an amused expression.

"oh boy, how i hate this taehyung guy."

bogum haltered in his moves, looking from the mirror to the man standing in the door. "what?"

"you've heard me right, i don't like to see my son with him. they don't belong together." he said, trying to hide his homophobia since bogum doesn't seem to be straight either.

"why are you telling me this?"

"well, well, bogumie. i know about you and taehyung and it's visible you two belong more together. you're like made for each other."

bogum clenched his fists. "he can go and do whatever he wants, i don't want him anymore. i j-just hate that he is happy now, while i suffered so much."

"resentment, anger, shame, a want of revenge? am i right?" junghyun raised one eyebrow.

bogum looked up to him with knitted eyebrows. "what do you want?"

"i want my son and that boy to stop seeing each other and for you to get your revenge. the rest is my part." junghyun winked at him.

bogum thought for a while. he doesn't love taehyung anymore, all he would do is just fuck him for his body, but that's it. the only attraction towards taehyung he has is the want of getting paid back. he wants to embarrass taehyung the way he did to him.

"fine. what do i have to do?"

junghyun smirked.

"you are so quiet today, is everything alright?" jungkook asked taehyung worriedly, who seemed to be spacing out again. they were on their way of going to the canteen, since it was lunch time. they'd meet their friends there.
taehyung smiled, a smile that didn't reach his eyes and jungkook immediately noticed. "i'm fine, kookie, don't worry."

just like always, everyone(except jimin) was already there. "ayo, visual couple, wassup." hobi greeted them and they laughed as they sat to them.

"i'm the real visual here though." jin scoffed. "yeah totally, compared to taehyung and jungkook, you're a mob." yoongi clicked his tongue.

"i hate you." jin squinted his eyes.

"you know you love me." yoongi looked to namjoon. "platonically."

"and how do you come to that idea?"

yoongi and jin kept bickering, the table filled with laughter. but jungkook was missing the laughter of his favorite person, who was deep in thoughts rather than participating in their conversation like he always does.

"angel, is everything really alright?"

taehyung turned to look to jungkook and his heart did a flip by the worried expression of the other. "it's just i have to write that ugly exam after lunch and i can't stop thinking about what if i don't pass."

"since when do you care about that? you always get full marks?" namjoon asked.

taehyung laughed nervously. "t-this one today is important."

"it's an exam in music, you have to analyze a song given to you, what on that is important?"

"hey guys!" jimin came running to the table. taehyung breathed out.

"ugh finally now you're all here, i have to tell you something." jin started and everyone looked to him interested. everyone except jungkook who still eyed taehyung worriedly. the silver haired knew his boyfriend was looking at him, but he tried to ignore it.

"s-so euh what.. what i wanna say is.. namjoon you do that." jin patted the other's shoulder.

"so we are a couple." namjoon said and was hiding his face.

silence.

jin looked up again. "please at least act surprised."

"no acting needs energy." yoongi said annoyed.

but then there is hoseok, clapping his hands frantically, smiling widely. "congrats!"

"this is the reaction i wanted." jin bro fisted hoseok.

"you're not surprised?" namjoon asked and everyone on the table duh'd.
"you were always a couple for me." taehyung said, smiling again. but it was a forced smile.

"you better tell us now since when you are a couple. never ever are you a couple since this week." jimin laughed.

"well... don't be surprised, guys.. but since two years?"

silence.

"comon TWO YEARS, YOU CAN'T TELL ME THIS DOESN'T SURPRISE YOU?!" jin ranted and namjoon patted his back, calming him down.

"nope not at all."

"i thought it'd be 3 years."

"i thought they were born as a couple."

"okay stop." namjoon butted in, still trying to calm his furious boyfriend. "we understand."

"my parents aren't at home today." jimin said and everyone already understood what was running through his mind. "you down for a party, since i had to cancel the other?"

"yeah i'd like too." jin said and namjoon nodded.

"i'm there for the alcohol." yoongi said.
"i'm always down for fun!" hoseok laughed.

jimin turned to look at jungkook and taehyung.

"are you coming too, taehyung?"

taehyung who was in a starre snapped out. "wh-what?"

"i asked you if you wanna come to my party."

everyone looked at taehyung worriedly now, but the silver haired only brushed it off. "i-i never liked parties, i'm sorry."

"it's okay." jimin then looked at jungkook. "i won't ask you since i know your answer, you'll be with taehyung, right?" jimin scoffed.

the younger gritted his teeth. "exactly." he said, maintaining a killing eye contact with jimin.

the school bell then ringed and the boys got up, went to their classes.

but jungkook could only think about taehyung and the way he was so lost in thoughts the whole day over.

they're on their way to jungkook's home, holding hands, but not talking. jungkook stopped, making taehyung stop to. the silver haired looked confused at his boyfriend.

"can i kiss you?" the ravenette asked and taehyung was more than confused. "i- you don't need to ask me-

jungkook quickly connected their lips, taehyung more than surprised, but gladly kissed back. and it was as if all feelings crawled to him and mixed with each other. he hadn't slept one bit last night, hasn't eaten yet, but also doesn't feel like it. he was so deep in thoughts, the whole night and day over, and the thoughts were making him to a mess.

so a small tear escaped his eye, but he didn't cry.

jungkook cut off. "good, i thought you were mad at me." he laughed, but stopped noticing the tear.

he sighed. "baby, what's wrong?"
