Dark Desire

Part 4

JUNGKOOK POV

I wonder if Jimin has taken the call in the meantime. I turn unobtrusively to the back and notice that Jimin is sitting in front of the camera.

So he has seen with his own eyes that you are not faithful to him.

I turn to you and watch you for a while. You look cute when you are completely exhausted. I stroke your flushed cheeks, which are positively glowing.

Why can't I be happy about this situation now? That's all I wanted. Otherwise you two would have been married. I had to do something.

"What are you thinking about?"

You snap me out of my thoughts.
"It was beautiful with you," I whisper to you.

You smile at me in love. I look into your eyes for a while and lose myself in them. Automatically I start to smile too.

You give me a little kiss. "I also found it beautiful with you." Your words give me goosebumps all over my body and my heartbeat quickens. Suddenly a thought comes to my mind. The camera. I have to make it disappear.

I try to look normal and lie down next to you. My gaze wanders unobtrusively to the camera, which now shows a black background. I take a sigh of relief. Jimin has ended the call in the meantime. Now I just have to make the mobile phone disappear.

I put my arm around your body and pull you close to me. "Try to get some sleep now."

You lay your head on my chest and close your eyes. I give you a little kiss on the forehead and pretend to try to fall asleep too.

Meanwhile, guilt engulfs me more and more. How could I have been so stupid? I embarrassed you in front of Jimin. I embarrassed you in a way that couldn't have been worse. And why did I do that? Because I'm jealous. I'm jealous of Jimin. I told him in confidence at the time that I was falling in love with you. He advised me then not to tell you because our friendship might suffer. And what does he do? He starts dating you a week later. At first I tried to accept it. I told myself that the most important thing is that you're happy. But after the engagement, I couldn't take it anymore. I can't watch someone steal my girl.

Half an hour passes until you finally fall asleep. Slowly I detach myself from you and get up. I go to the shelf and take my mobile phone in my hand. I quickly let it disappear into my trousers, which are lying on the floor. Relieved, I run my hand through my hair.

To clear my head, I go to your balcony and stare into the air. I light a cigarette and breathe deeply. How am I supposed to make up for this?

JIMIN POV

I'm just on my way home from a business trip. I'm looking forward to surprising you tonight. You think I'll be back in the evening, but I'll be with you in 30 minutes. When you wake up this morning, I'll already be lying next to you.

I start to smile. Just the thought of having you with me again is indescribable.

I am pulled out of my thoughts when my mobile phone starts ringing. A Facetime call from Jungkook at 4am? What does he want from me at this hour. Maybe he's dialled the wrong number.

I stare at the display for a few seconds. He doesn't seem to have dialled the wrong number, the mobile is still ringing. I take an exhausted breath and answer the call.

My heart stops.

I recognise you and Jungkook doing it in bed together. You are kissing. You are touching. You are
fucking.

My heart. It shatters into a thousand shards. It begins to hurt like hell. I have to look away, but I can't. I just can't take my eyes off it.

Anger gathers in my entire body. I focus this anger on Jungkook in particular. I know he seduced you. You would never have gotten involved otherwise. Maybe you are drunk.

I clench my hands into fists. He will pay for this. I wipe a tear from my face. I won't give in that easily.

Y/N POV

"Y/n. Hey. Wake up..."

Jungkook's whispering voice slowly wakes you up. Confused, you look left and right to find Jungkook sitting next to you.

"What...is wrong?" I rub my eyes tiredly.

"I did something terrible and I'm being swallowed up by guilt." Jungkook stares at the floor with watery eyes. He looks pretty beat up.

"Hey..." I reach for his hand and take it tightly in mine. "If anyone needs to feel guilty, it's me. I'm engaged to him and I cheated on him. If then he'll be angry at me and not you."

"No you don't understand." Jungkook takes his hand out of your grip and stands up. He walks to the window and looks into the distance.

"What do you mean Jungkook?" I stand up as well and walk to him.

Jungkook turns to me and looks me in the eye.
"While you had the blindfold on, I called Jimin via Facetime. He was watching us have sex."

My heart skips a beat and I swallow. I would have expected many things but not this confession.

My whole body begins to tremble. I slap him in anger. Bitterly, I start to cry.

"How could you do this to me Jungkook!" I slump to the ground as my trembling legs can no longer hold me up. I feel as bad and used as anyone can feel.
