It was Saturday morning and Taehyung was glad to have day off from classes. Sleep was one of his favorite things, so he was glad to be able to sleep in a little later on this beautiful morning. He walked down the hall toward the kitchen, his eyes squinted and light brown hair sticking up in all different directions. He scratched his stomach as he made his way to the refrigerator.

He found the almond milk and pulled his favorite Captain Crunch cereal out of the cupboard. As he was fixing up his bowl of cereal, he heard his small roomate tip-toe out of his bedroom. As he always did now first thing in the morning, Jimin went straight to the bathroom and shut the door quietly behind him. He must not have realized that Taehyung was already up.

After only a couple bites, Taehyung put his bowl down, leaving it on the counter. He serruptitiously crept over to the bathroom door, putting his ear up against the wood and cringing at what he could hear. Appetite gone.

Although Jimin had told his friend group that he had gone to the doctor and that he wasn't getting sick anymore, only Taehyung knew the truth. He hears Jimin almost every morning emptying his stomach in the toilet and he's fairly certain of the reason behind it.

Jimin hasn't been exactly great at hiding all of the evidence around the apartment. Taehyung found the box for the pregnancy test in the bathroom trash can a couple days after Jimin took it. He never did find the actual pee stick that contained the results, but he assumed that the smaller took it and hid it somewhere. Jimin also started buying a lot more groceries, stalking up their kitchen cabinets with an excessive amount of goodies, which was unusual for the older because he was always so strict with his diet.

It still wasn't enough evidence to conclude that Jimin was in fact with child, but the prenatal vitamins on his nightstand were dead giveaway.

It explained so much to Taehyung about his friend. This is why he's been so sick, so hungry, so exhausted, and so grouchy.

Plus, the older has distanced himself a great deal from the other and the thought breaks Taehyung's heart. He misses spending time with Jimin. They used to watch movies and TV series' on Netflix together, cuddled up on the couch. They would stay up late just to goof around with each other.

But lately, things have been different. Jimin just goes straight to his room after class or work and recluses, only coming out to grab a snack or use the restroom. He always seemed so hopeless, lonely, and sad.

Another thing that hurts Taehyung, is knowing that the older is trying to deal with this entirely on his own. He won't open up about it. Taehyung has been patient and hasn't pried, knowing that doing so usually just pisses him off, which gets him nowhere. The younger hoped that Jimin would eventually unfold everything, but he doesn't think he can be patient anymore.

As much as Jimin will try to deny it, he needs help. He doesn't need to carry all of this on his own.

So Taehyung makes the decision to finally speak up.

After the dry heaving seems to have halted. Taehyung throws the door open, startling the older who's currently sitting on the bathroom tile.

Flustered, Jimin scurries over to flush the toilet and closes the lid, scrambling to sit on top of it.

"Morning T-Tae" he stuttered. "Sorry, I think I ate something bad last night. I'm not feeling too well. I'll be out in just a second if you're needing to use the-"

"Jimin, I know." They were both silent after Taehyung's sentence, staring at one another. The taller could tell Jimin was nervous by the way he fidgeted with his fingers in his lap.

"You know...?" The older roommate asked, trying to play dumb, but Taehyung wasn't having it.

"Don't act like you don't know what I mean by that" he said with a serious tone. "You know exactly what I'm saying."

Jimin trembled where he sat, looking up at his roommate with watery eyes. "Tae..." he sniffles. "It's been so hard" his voice cracked in the middle of his sentence.

That's all it took for Taehyung's firm expression to break and turn into one of compassion and sorrow. He instantly wrapped Jimin into his arms and let the older sob into his chest, sifting his fingers through his dark brown hair.

Jimin pulled away first, looking Taehyung in the eyes. "H-how did you find out?"

"About hyung or about the baby?" He cautiously asked.

This seemed to throw Jimin off a bit more. "You know about Yoongi?" The boy's cheeks turned a shade of pink and you could tell he was a little more uncomfortable by the way he fidgeted some more.

Taehyung sighed. "Yeah, I know about it. You guys weren't as discreet as you probably thought," he admitted. This caused Jimin to blush harder as Taehyung continued.

"I don't know how things started between you guys, and I don't know what drove you two apart. But I'm guessing it's something pretty serious. I also know that that's his baby in there" he gestured to the older's tummy.

Jimin took a deep breath and clenched his eyes shut. This was not going to be an easy conversation to have, but Taehyung deserved to know the truth... about everything.

Before Jimin could start the story Taehyung asked, "Does Yoongi know about the baby?" As soon as he asked his eyes lit up as though he connected all the dots, but they weren't accurate. "Is that the reason you guys are fighting!? Because he was pissed about the baby? Ohhh, I'm gonna beat his ass. He needs to take responsibility for knocking you-"

"Tae!" Jimin snapped. "No, he doesn't know. He can't know." He whispered the last sentence. "Let me tell you the whole story from the beginning."

Jimin really did tell him everything, from Yoongi and Sera's break up, to the sex, to the end, to his current secret pregnancy, and even Sera's threat. He couldn't get through the whole story without shedding a few tears here and there. If he says it out loud, it makes it all real. His pregnancy hormones definitely don't help.

Taehyung listened patiently to the whole story, shedding a few tears himself. He wishes that he could've been there for his friend through all of it. Jimin didn't deserve any of it.

When the smaller finally finished, he took a deep breath and wiped away his leftover tears with the back of his hand. "I'm so sorry I kept it all from you, Tae." Jimin looked down to the tiled floor in shame. They sat in the bathroom the entire time.

Taehyung looked up at the older, his face showed all of his regrets. "I just wish you would have told me sooner" he sighed, but there was something else he needed to say. "So that day, when the cookies burnt... Yoongi was here?" He couldn't believe that Yoongi had left Jimin like that.

"Jimin, I'm gonna kill that son of a bitch." Taehyung stood up abruptly. He was furious. "How could he-"

"Tae, stop!" Jimin pleaded, tugging on Taehyung's pant leg to get him to sit down again. "I don't want to see Yoongi anytime soon. And I may be pitiful, but even after all of this, I don't want to see him dead. I want him to be happy. That's why I can't tell him about the baby."

Taehyung sat back down with a sigh, aggressively running his hands through his hair. "Jimin, it's not fair. Why do you have to deal with all of the repercussions for what he's partially to blame for. Why are you putting yourself through this?" He knew the answer to the question already, but he hoped Jimin would say differently.

Jimin had a guilty expression when he said what was expected, "Because I love him."

Instead of scolding him, the younger pulled him into his arms. "No more secrets, okay?" Jimin nodded in his chest. "You're not doing this alone anymore. You have me, okay" Jimin nodded again.

"When's your next appointment?" the taller roommate asked.

"Next week. It's the first ultrasound. Will you go with me?"

"Of course." He kissed the top of Jimin's head.

They finally separated and smiled at one another. Jimin was truly glad that Taehyung knew now and wishes he would have told him sooner. It has sucked to be so alone lately.

"Now get up, brush your teeth, and wash your face and hands because you smell like vomit." Taehyung cringed and held his nose.

Jimin just rolled his eyes.

~~~~~~~~~~
Yayyy!!! Taehyung finally knows EVERYTHING! And Jimin isn't alone anymore.

This was such an emotional chapter and I almost teared up while writing it.
