Over the course of the past few weeks, Taehyung had noticed something. There was a bit of a boundary between him and the other members. He always felt a bit disconnected.
He hated feeling left out. It always made him feel like he had done something wrong. Even if Taehyung tried to console himself, he couldn't help but feel bad for himself when the others clearly avoided him.
That's exactly what was happening now.

"Jimin?" Taehyung called.
Jimin turned around in surprise. "Yeah?"
"Can we hang out together sometime today? Maybe watch a movie together, or play video games or...?"
Jimin shook his head apologetically. He had a pout on his face. "I'm so sorry Taehyung. I promised Jin hyung that I would help him clean out his room today."
"Since when do you like cleaning?"
"Um... I don't like it," Jimin said. "It's just that hyung asked me, and he seems like he's going through a rough time, so..."
"Oh." Taehyung sighed. "Can I help too then?"
"You'd have to ask him, I'm sorry." Jimin shrugged.
Taehyung's face turned red. He felt the familiar creep of embarrassment go up his spine. Nobody really wanted him around, he was sure.
"I'm sure we can pick another day to hangout Taehyung," Jimin said kindly. "I'm just busy today."
"Tomorrow?"
"Oh no... I have a dance thing to go to with Hoseok."
Taehyung sighed. "Well-"
"We'll figure it out, don't worry."
Taehyung could only feel bad for himself. He wanted to go ask the others if they were free, but he was too embarrassed and tired. None of them ever noticed him and wanted to hang out with him. He was the one who was always asking them if he could come along or join. They never did the same for him.
The truth stung.
------
Taehyung decided to play up his game a bit. He whined louder when something happened the way he didn't want it to. He expected the others to find it cute and endearing. But he was afraid, his efforts went in the opposite direction.
"For heaven's sake Taehyung, quit the complaining," Jin said. "I know that none of us like getting up in the morning, but that isn't going to change anything!"
Taehyung shut his mouth, embarrassed. He had just been trying to be funny by talking about how much he hated getting up in the morning. Usually the others joined him. But now they didn't look the slightest bit amused now. Jimin sighed.
Taehyung felt his heart break. Of course, he had annoyed them now. He couldn't think of anything to calm them down.
"Okay, I'll be heading off to bed now," Namjoon said. He didn't pay any attention to Taehyung's hurt gaze.
"Make sure you set your alarm for five!" Jungkook said. "Everyone, all of you, don't forget!"
"Yeah." Jin sighed.
Taehyung looked down at his lap. They didn't even bother addressing him! He was just an extra accessory for them.
He abruptly got up and left the table. He heard the conversation continue like usual behind him. Nobody even acknowledged the fact that he left! Nobody cared.
