TATTOOS | KOOKV

Ch 20

They were here again, invading the small space of Yoongis apartment as they always did

the voices of theirs filling the whole living room, reaching upstairs. they were laughing, cracking jokes and secrets as they always did

But this time Taehyung didn't know why it bothered him today, it never did. He used to love it, hearing them having fun, hearing yoongi be alive

But this time he couldn't help hate it, when his thoughts were filled with what his cousin had told him yesterday. Things he didn't know about Jungkook

He couldn't stop thinking about what those things could have been

He slowly walked down the stairs, holding his stick close to his body as their voices grew closer

Once the living room came to his reach he could hear them all, gathered around the couch and floor in their own world

Jungkook, who had looked up and noticed the other by the doorway to the living room. watched him in almost confusion as he felt off

Taehyung wished he could meet his eyes right now, to explore them and maybe get some kind of answer to his dying questions

"Tae, come in here why are you just standing there"

Jin said, as they had all now noticed the blond joining them

"I'm fine, I was just going to the kitchen"

The blond told, suprising himself with the rapsy voice that had came out from his mouth

before he could hear any answers he turned and left, walking towards the kitchen instead with his stick.

But before he could walk inside the kitchen he was stopped in the hallway by the voice of the person he was trying to avoid

"Hey, you okay?"

Jungkook said from behind him, Taehyung couldn't help closing his eyes from hearing that voice.

Taehyung turned around, facing the other as he couldn't bring himself to say anything but the questions he was holding

he wanted to say he was fine or anything to just answer his question and move on but he couldn't

"Jungkook, do you tell me everything?"

"What are you talk-"

"Please, just answer my question kook"

Taehyungs soft, but raspy voice told, interupting the other who was now staring intensly into the blonds eyes, he now instead seeking an answer

The blond could hear how the other sighed. Jungkook leaned himself against the wall behind him as he ran his tattoed hand through his hair

"I don't know, I can't really answer that"

"How can you not know, why can't you just tell me- just tell me if there is something I need to know"

Taehyung almost wanted to shout it out, as his legs almost started giving up on himself.

Jungkook traveled his eyes back to him, watched the uneasy expression on the others soft feautures

"Who told you"

Jungkook said atlast

"told me?"

Taehyung answered confused, wondering if he was talking about Yoongi and what he had told him yesterday

Jungkook ran his hand through his hair again before looking away from the other before they were fixated on the blond again

"Told you about Jane"

It felt like that named freezed Taehyung, he didn't know what he was expecting for answers, but in the end the last thing he expected was this

Because his Jungkook, the Jungkook he had known wouldn't name a girl would he? instead of just telling him a secret other than that

like that he smoked, or that he had bad grades or that he had a bad relationship with his parents or - just something, something that wasn't what he had just said

He didn't know a jane and he didn't know Jungkook

He couldn't help the the tears that were dwelling up in his eyes, trying to hold them in as he slowly took a step back, which made Jungkook take notice and stand up from his leaned position against the wall

"Taehyung-"

"I guess there were things I didn't know about"

The blond said, his shaky voice almost unheard before he left
