After reading those texts from Hoseok, Jungkook returned, confused and mad at the situation, because he didn't know what to do. Minhyuk's words bugged him. He saw the sculpture sitting on the floor, looking broken.
Jimin slowly looked up at Jungkook, holding himself as he shook. He looked the younger over before pursing his lips, seeing how upset Jungkook was.
Shakily, Jimin stood, approaching Jungkook. "G-Googie, are you o-okay? D-Do you want me to h-hold you?"
Jungkook took two steps backward. "N-No. Don't go near me."
"I-I'm sorry." Jimin fell to his knees and bowed. "I-I'm sorry f-for loving you."
Jungkook clenched his fist as tears started to form in his eyes.
"How can I love or be loved by someone who is just a sculpture and doesn't have feeling or a heart?! What? It's just one-sided?! I want to feel loved by a human, like me, but you aren't even one! I wish I never created you." Jungkook screamed.
Curling up into himself, Jimin let out a choked sob, rocking back and forth as he mumbled countless apologies. He was terrified. Jungkook had never yelled at him before. Having him yell at him about the thing he was most self conscious about... it broke him.
"J-Just throw me away!" Jimin cried out. "Y-You make me hate myself!"
Jungkook froze. Seeing the tears falling from Jimin's eyes surprised him.
"J-Jimin. Y-You're crying..."
Oh, no...
He never wanted this.
This was all an attempt at prevention, to make Jimin stop trying to compare himself to humans, to stop trying to play pretend. Yet here he was, crying for real, tears coming from his eyes.
Jungkook suddenly approached Jimin, wiping Jimin's tears, and stared at him, and his red, blotchy face. He ended up touching Jimin to try and ground himself, yet he still couldn't process what was happening.
"P-Please don't yell." Jimin squeezed his eyes shut, tears still spilling.
Jungkook's chest suddenly felt heavy. "I-I'm sorry. But, Jimin. Y-You're crying..."
Jimin touched his wet cheeks and looked at Jungkook with his bloodshot eyes. "I—what's going on?"
Jungkook continued wiping his tears and said, "I think you're a human now, Jimin..."
The elder's eyes widened slightly, but he couldn't stop crying. He reached out a hand and grabbed one of Jungkook's, placing it to his chest. Under the artist's hand, the fast thrumming of a heartbeat could be felt.
"I-It hurts... knowing that I-I'm not enough... that y-you can't love me back, because I love you s-so much." Jimin sniffled. "It h-hurts. My ch-chest. It hurts."
Jungkook could finally feel Jimin's heartbeat. The tears from Jungkook's eyes fell, remembering all the bad things he did to Jimin made him want to punch himself. He suddenly pulled Jimin closer to him, crying, and hugging the older one.
"J-Jimin, I'm so sorry. I-I'm sorry... I'm truly s-sorry... I'm a b-bad human. I-I shouldn't have treated y-you like that... You are enough... I'm sorry.. If I let you q-question yourself... I..." Jungkook couldn't even finish his words because he was crying too much.
"A-Are you not gonna throw me a-away?" Jimin whimpered pathetically, burying himself into Jungkook.
Jungkook slowly pulled away as he cupped Jimin's face and said, "N-No, baby. I-I'm not going to throw you away... I love you... I think I'm the one who d-doesn't deserve your love..."
Jimin looked away. "D-Do you love m-me, or just that I'm... that I'm h-human?"
Oh, baby... What have I done?
"Look at me, please."
He sniffled, listening to Jungkook. "Y-You..."
"I-I already had feelings for you, way back then, when you were still not a human... It's just... I was confused... I-I don't know how to say, and to express it to you... I'm a coward... I-I was always denying it, because I-I was afraid... I tried to remove my feelings by using someone, but i-it won't work... I-I didn't mean what I told you last time... I know it's hard for you to believe me, because I did terrible things... I made out with someone. It's okay if you don't want to forgive me today... I can wait... But Jimin, I love you. I r-really do..." Jungkook stared at him, tears still falling from his eyes.
"H-Hobi said you... had sex... with him..." Jimin closed his eyes. "I-I was j-jealous. I-It wasn't fair..."
"What Hobi said... is true... I-I'm sorry, Jimin. I'm so sorry." Jungkook kneeled. "I-I'm sorry..."
"N-Never again. M-My Googie." He pouted, wiping his red nose.
"I promise... I will never do that again... I'm sorry..."
Jimin blushed. "O-Only with me..."
Jungkook looked at him, cheeks reddened. "A-Are you going to f-forgive me?"
Slowly, Jimin grabbed Jungkook's hands and placed them on his thighs, crawling into his lap. "Soft? Warm? I think... That's the feeling, right?"
Jungkook nodded. "Yes, It is..."
Jimin rested his head against Jungkook's chest. "Warm... I love it... I love you. I forgive you."
Jungkook wrapped his arms around him. "Thank you... I love you more"
Cute giggles left Jimin's mouth as he nuzzled into Jungkook. "You love me."
"D-Do you still want to kiss?" Jungkook asked.
This made Jimin snap up, pouting cutely as he nodded quickly. "W-Wanna kiss you..."
Jungkook pinched his cheeks. "Here or in bed?"
"Bed. Can you carry me?" Jimin asked, his voice small.
Jungkook smiled. "Yes. I'll carry you."
Jungkook carefully lifted him up as he walked towards the bed, and he gently placed Jimin on the bed, staring at his lips.
Jimin's eyes fell closed. "I haven't done this before, so you're going to have to be slow and gentle..."
Jungkook softly chuckled. "I'll be gentle, Mimi."
"Good." He bit his lip. "Can you take charge? I don't want to mess up."
"Sure, baby."
