betrayal's the best part of this

Yoongi still remembered the first time he met Hoseok.

It wasn't easy to remember the first time you met the literal love of your life, but Yoongi remembered down to the exact hour. Call it cynical, or just Yoongi having a fantastic memory, but falling for Hoseok on that day had been the last of his concerns.

He had been, after all, just a sophomore trying to pass his English class.

Was it cliche to say that he fell in love with the person who was supposed to tutor him? Of course. It wasn't like they were enemies or anything. They just hadn't known each other. Yoongi was just trying to pass,, and Hoseok was just trying to get extra credit, and somewhere along the way, they both fell for each other.

More accurately, Yoongi fell for Hoseok. Hard.

Yoongi resisted the urge to throw his phone against the wall. He was currently locked in his bathroom, having excused himself to read the messages he hadn't expected to read. Jay hadn't messaged him in so long, and then he suddenly started getting a flurry of messages, ones he hadn't expected.

Now, he was a sobbing mess, and there was nothing anyone could do about it.

He felt so stupid.

Scratch that. 

He was stupid.

"Yoongi, you okay?"

Yoongi could hear the worry in Jimin's voice, hear him trying to open the door to no avail. Still, he said nothing, his eyes focusing on the blocked user. Not even Jimin could help him out of this one. No, not when Jimin knew who Jay was. 

Everyone knew who Jay was. Everyone knew that it was Hoseok. They'd lied to him. He'd let Hoseok's friends in, confided in them, BONDED with them, and this was how they repaid him? It hurt most coming from Jimin, Jin, and Taehyung, his ACTUAL friends. 

"Yoongi?"

"Go away!" Yoongi yelled, his voice coming out low and strangled.

From the opposite end,  Jimin had no idea what had gotten Yoongi in this mood. He immediately whipped his head towards Jungkook, who raised his arms up, as if to say he didn't have anything to do with it. Seokjin's eyebrows furrowed as he walked towards Jimin, knocking on the bathroom door, calling out Yoongi's name as well.

 "Leave me alone!"

"Did something happen?" Namjoon asked, immediately taking out his phone. "Jungkook, you were the last one talking with him. What happened?"

"I dunno. He said he needed a min to read sum messages he got," Jungkook answered, eyes widening slightly. "Ya think Seok had some to do with it?"

"One hundred percent," Namjoon grimaced, quickly sending a message to Hoseok. "Question is, what did he do?"

"Yoongi, if you don't open the door, I'm going to open it," Jimin called out, knocking on the door. "Come on. Whatever it is that's going on, we can help you."

"Oh yeah?"

There was slight shuffling. Slowly, the bathroom door unlocked, revealing a red-eyed Yoongi, who thrust the phone into Jimin's hands. 

"When were you going to tell me that you've been talking to Hoseok?" Yoongi demanded. Jimin and Seokjin froze at the question. "Yeah. I know. You've known he's been here all this time! You invited his fucking friends over. Do I look like a fucking idiot to you?"

"Yoongi, we can explain—" Seokjin began, only to be immediately interrupted.

"No!" Yoongi yelled, more tears streaming down his cheeks. "Why would you guys lie to me? Why would you guys keep this from me? You, Jimin, and Taehyung. Taehyung's been going to meet him! When were you guys planning on telling me?"

They all fell into a stunned silence. Yoongi waited expectantly for a few moments, scoffing as he wiped the tears off his face.

"The love of my life left me years ago, and I find out now that he's here, in Seoul, and you guys have been in contact with him." Yoongi laughed dryly. "The people I trusted the most. Do you realize how fucked up this all is?"

"Yoongi, we didn't have a choice." Jimin said, bottom lip quivering as he looked at Yoongi with guilt. "You know I wouldn't hide something like this from you."

"There's always a choice and you did exactly that." 

Yoongi pushed past them, ignoring Namjoon and Jungkook, who immediately got out of his way. Jimin immediately rushed after him, only to be grabbed by Namjoon, who shook his head at him.

"He needs time to himself." Namjoon murmured. "Let him go. There's no use trying to talk sense into someone who's extremely emotional."

"He wouldn't be like this if your friend hadn't messed up the way he did!" Jimin hissed, struggling to get out of Namjoon's grip. 

"You're going to make things worse." 

Jimin watched helplessly as Yoongi grabbed his car keys, before slamming the door behind him.

now imagine how yoongi is gonna feel that his fucking best friend hid something like this

in his eyes you'll be a villain too.

a/n: fast paced, wild, confusing— all emotions that convey what's going on rn.
