Chapter 22

"I think you should give him a chance, he deserves that nonetheless," jungkook said to jimin who was refusing to take even a sip of alcohol not forgetting how he lost control last time, "He deserves that? Seriously Jungkook you don't know anything you are taking his side because you like him" jimin replied shifting his position uncomfortably because deep down he agrees with jungkook too but is too stubborn to accept it

"I know more than you guys so please don't you 'don't know anything' me" jungkook sips down another glass of soju " and how so? And you said we are going to club this is not a club kook" jimin took his jacket off, his clothes were too extra for an ordinary restaurant

"I overheard your conversation with taehyung and I did a little investigation with namjoon hyung don't tell taehyung he'll kill me and I want to come here with someone and the people I know are too rich to come here" and jungkook took his jacket off too it was getting hot because of the alcohol and the heat of the restaurant and the old poor air conditioners aren't doing their best job either

"I'm rich too brat and what did you know that we don't," jimin asked "why your mother does all of that" jungkook added and jimin looked up at him in utter shock it wasn't something he knew, his mother took the secret to her grave then how jungkook found out "why?" He finally gave up and takes a shot of soju

"Taehyung's father told her to take you away from his son because taehyung told him he won't take over his business and live an ordinary life with you so he gave her a blank check and you know what happened next" jimin stayed quiet

Feeling his soul leave his body and re-enter, he didn't know what to say or feel his emotions were mixed with anger, sadness, and lastly guilt

He had now realized that after all, taehyung wasn't the one at fault "w-what...h-how" jimin was at a loss of words "how do you know?" He questioned jungkook his voice shaky eyes glistening with the salty tears he had held back

"namjoon hyung worked for his father before me so I asked him about her and he told me about all of this and I took out the bank statement of taehyung's father account of that year too and found out he was right" jungkook explained when jimin didn't say anything he sighed

"jimin I've been with him for the past seven years, he wasn't in his best state either, I saw him crying on the floor wasting his life in a bottle of alcohol, I've seen stars dying in his eyes day by day I was so curious about the boy he missed and screamed for in his drunken state but how he reacted after your first meeting I got a clue it's you, it's always you jimin he loved you and still does"

"I'm afraid what if he breaks my heart again? What if I let my guards down and get weak again? What if I won't be able to protect myself or maybe even taemin" jimin cries out breaking into sobs jungkook quickly stands up from his seat and sat beside him hugging his body

"it won't happen jimin and you can't let your fears come in between your happiness you and taehyung deserve to be happy and to be honest you both are each other's happiness" jungkook comforts him patting his back as he sobs in his chest

"And if he breaks your heart again you can kill him and I will help you bury his body" jimin giggles and slowly punched jungkook "ouch!! it still hurt" they both laughed in sync jimin pushed him away and wipes his tears,

"Your Cologne, I've smelled it somewhere before," jimin said sniffing jungkook again trying to remember where he smell this before "you are living with me for months, you obviously smelled it before" jungkook replies "no you don't smell like that I have a sensitive nose and I remember every Cologne I've ever smelled and it's very...." He thinks for a second and then shrugged off "I don't know"

"Uhh... I remember I'm wearing the perfume someone gifted me because I told them I like their Cologne you probably smelled it before at that party we went to last time" jungkook said chewing on his fries that he ordered with bottles of sujo as the small blush crept through his face "isn't it that someone you told me about?" jimin asked in a teasing tone
