Jungkook smiles bitterly, tracing his hands over the cold grave stone.
He presses a soft kiss on it before standing up and facing his friends, they look at him pitifully with tears pooling their eyes.
He just flashes them a smile that doesn't reach his eyes "I'm going home" he announces, making his way to his car
They don't stop him, and jungkook's thankful for that. He just wants to be alone for now
He glances at the grave where the love of his life is buried one last time before making his way to his car
The drive back home is silent it wasn't always like that, either he was excited to go home to his love or jimin would have been by his side holding his hand humming to the songs playing on the radio or laughing whenever he told him a joke
He feels numb
He swallows thickly when a lump grows in his throat remembering those moments.
He hopes that it's all a nightmare, he'll wake up with jimin peacefully sleeping by his side.
But reality is cruel
He unbuckels his seat belt and gets out of the car once he reaches his destination
He looks around the garden, flowers are blooming prettily, he recalls jimin spending hours working in their to make sure the garden looks beautiful and lively
Now he'll have to hire someone to take care of it as jimin isn't there to do it anymore or it will be ruined
sighing loudly he makes his way inside,no one's there to welcome him with warm hugs and kisses, their house feels so cold and empty......it wasn't always like this

"kookie, where are we going" jimin asks for the tenth time "be patient baby" jungkook said without looking at him making jimin pout
After a while jungkook parks the car in front of a beautiful house. "we're here, lets go" jungkook announces getting out of the car
"why are we here?" Jimin asked looking at the beautiful house infornt of him "it's our new home love" jimin gasps "omg kook, really?" jimin asks "you don't believe me?" jungkook said playfully raising an eyebrow causing jimin's face to break into a wide smile

He walks further inside going into the living room, a smile decorates his face after seeing jimin's pictures with him and their friends. They look so happy he wishes that everything could have stayed like that
He looks over the couch where him and jimin would cuddle watching movies, He vividly sees jimin sleeping there with a book in his hand, waiting for him to come home from work
He feels bad for all the times jimin
had to wait for him
He glances towards the kitchen where him and jimin would cook together, laughing and giggling. Talking about their future while eating dinner
there's no future for him without jimin
He heads towards the bedroom, everything is neatly arranged as if never touched, it's too empty. He doesn't want to believe that jimin is gone
He changes his clothes and lays on the
bed. Jungkook finds it hard to fall asleep without holding someone, now he'll have to get used to sleeping alone
His eyes fall on the book shelf, filled with books. There are so many of them that jimin couldn't read before passing away
.

Jungkook met jimin at the library he used to work at. Jimin would sit there for hours on weekends reading books
They quickly became friends because of jimin being a social butterfly
Jungkook couldnt help but to fall in love with that tiny human with blonde hairs and a beautiful eye smile
jimin was the one who asked him out, he remembers crying like a baby and hugging jimin tightly after he agreed to be his boyfriend

Jungkooks world crashed down when they found out that Jimin has stage 3 cancer
He couldn't do anything to save him, jungkook helplessly watched jimin fading away, he remembers how jimin smiled brightly at him last time
Jimin slipped from his like hands and he couldn't do anything about it
He breaks out of his trance when he hears his phone ringing, he doesn't plan to answer it until it rings for the fifth time
A sigh escapes his lips after he sees taehyung's number flashing on the screen "hello" he mummers "hey kook sorry to disturb you" taehyung speaks "what is it? " jungkook asks clearly not in the mood to talk "I'm sending you a video, jimin wanted you to see it" theres a brief pause on the other side before tae speaks again "be strong for him kook". Jungkook doesn't say anything further before cutting the call
After a minute or two, tae sends him the video. Jimins smiling face is the first thing he sees
He takes a deep breath before playing the video "hey, love" jimins soft voice filles the empty room "I hope your holding in there bravely" tears start to pool his eyes "I'm sorry that I couldn't stay longer" jimin looks up smiling at the camera, jungkook can see tears in his eyes but jimin refuses to let them out
His stubborn baby
How bad he wants to be there, holding jimin tight telling him its not his fault.
It's to late for that now
"I know it will be hard for you, but be brave for me, move forward and be happy" jimin pauses for a moment before talking again
"kook-ah if you don't want me to be sad then try to find happiness , I don't want you to stay alone forever" Jimin says looking down
"if it's all to much move out, maybe out of Korea go somewhere, where my memories won't chase you. You have a long life ahead kook don't spend it mourning after me" jimin flashes an eye smile before continuing again
"find someone who'll love you like I do, be strong I love you, bye"
Jungkook finally breaks down clutching onto the tightly.....he misses him so damn much...why is life so cruel to him? he cries until there arwe no tears left
Jungkook hears jimins voice whispering "I love you" before darkness takes over him
"The moon split in half and the stars crumbled, falling like fire works into
the sea. I watched my world fall apart
the day my love left me"
