Seokjin

I know.

I already know what you're thinking.

And you are right.

I'm an ass.

I know.

Listen, it is not my fault...

Okay, it's 100% my fault but listen anyway and hopefully you will understand. I'm not condoning my behavior toward Ma-ri but I had my reasons, whether they are good reasons is a gray area. This wasn't how it was supposed to go...

"I'm going to pick up Hobi hyung's cake, want to come with?" Jimin asked, standing in my door frame

"No thanks"

"Let me rephrase that, I'm going to pick up the cake let's go, now" He stated with his arms crossed over his chest. I sighed and got up from my desk chair

"Why do I have to go and why am I listening to you? I'm the eldest"

"Not today. Today you are not my older my teammate today you are my boyfriend and we need to talk"

"About what?"

"Not what but who" I rolled my eyes. I knew this was coming. Everyone gave me lectures on how I act towards Ma-ri and I was sick of hearing them but Jimin hadn't given me one yet so it was his turn.

I already knew I was wrong but I had a plan to apologize and redeem myself but I didn't want anyone to know yet. Not until I needed their help but everyone just kept chewing me out for being rude to her and ignoring her, rightfully so, but I hated repeatedly hearing how much of an ass I was being to her.

"Jimin, I know, okay? I know"

"Do you? Because you have made very few attempts to rectify the situation"

"Yes I do" I groaned, snatching my jacket off the back of my door. I followed him out the house and to his car. I climbed in the passenger seat and buckled up then we were off to one of our favorite bake shops, we've been getting Hoseok's cake from here for years. They make the best strawberry cakes in Korea.

"Jin I'm not trying to nag and be a broken record but I just don't understand why you were so hard on her in the first place" He said as we neared the shop, parking on the street

"I just wasn't expecting her and it's taking me some time to get used to her being my soulmate" He nodded then unlocked the car doors. I climbed out first since I was near the safe side.

"I don't know if the two are related but I noticed you have been acting differently, strange even for months now. Long before Ma-ri came to us you weren't being yourself"

Why is his short ass so observant?

We entered the shop, blending in with the few people already in there. We stood in line, only two people were in front of us so we moved up quickly. Jimin communicated with the clerk while my mind raced

If Jimin noticed then who's to say the others haven't? And if they have noticed why didn't anyone say anything until after Ma-ri showed up? Maybe I should just tell them the truth now, it's going to come out eventually. I debated myself over and over again as to what I should do and when but I was scared of what they'd think of me once they knew.

"Thank you, see you next time" Jimin said, smiling beneath his mask as he accepted the boxed dessert

"Good?" I asked as he examined it through the plastic window on the top

"Yeah, lets go" I took the cake from him and we got back in the car, he started it up and we drove back home quietly. "Thanks for riding with me"

"You didn't really give me a choice" I huffed out receiving a sideways look from Jimin. I hate the fact that I keep snapping on everyone and being short with the loves of my life but I can't help it. I pray I will be back to normal soon "Sorry. You're welcome"
