71. 'A really, really big apology'

A/N~ Just a heads up, the last three chapters are going to be pretty big, like full-on anime episode length I guess😅 I could've split this one up but... I didn't want to😶 So please just read at your own pace 💜

"You're breaking up with me?"

Hoseok slammed his hands onto their desk in disbelief, turning his head away and fighting back tears as he gazed out the classroom windows into the morning sunrise.

"After everything we've been through?" he whispered, his heart overtaken by betrayal, slowly ripping into two. "This is what I get?"

"I'm sorry, Hobi-hyung--"

"No, you know what?" Hoseok held up a hand, not even bothering to spare a glance at the boy sitting next to him anymore. "I really thought we had something special. But I guess I was wrong."

"Oh, but we still do, Hobi-hyung--"

"No." Hoseok took a deep, shaky breath, lips furling as he slowly shook his head. "No."

"But, Hobi-hyung--"

Hoseok spun his whole body back around, ripping his gaze from the sunrise and blinking away his final tears. "No. Have a nice life with your new bestie, Tae."

"Oh my god," Taehyung mumbled, face-palming himself with both hands. "See, this is exactly why I can't tell you about these types of things, Hobi-hyung. You literally overreact about everything."

"Um, this is not overreacting, Tae," he argued, pinching the little pink bunny charm dangling from Taehyung's cellphone case and holding it up. "Since when do you and Jeon Jungkook have matching best friend phone charms? And why didn't we ever have matching best friend phone charms?"

"Look, it was his idea okay?" Taehyung frowned, yanking his phone charm away from him and holding it tightly against his chest. "And he's gonna be here any second, so do you think you could like go back to your own seat now?"

"Oh, so you want to sit next to him? Next to Jungkook and all of his ugly piercings?" Hoseok scoffed, crossing his arms and turning his gaze to the front of the room. "Well that's real nice, Tae. Why don't you just go ahead and make out with him in the rain for the whole entire school to see while you're at it?"

"Hobi-hyung!" Taehyung's face instantly burst into flames, the grip around his bunny charm loosening ever so slightly. "I-I don't do those types of things--"

"Yeah, that's what they all say, Tae. Next thing you know he's got you pinned up against the wall, makin' out with you in the hallways with his hands all the way up your shirt like it's your own damn hotel room."

"Okay, well then you clearly don't understand I have something called basic human decency," Taehyung told him, cheeks glowing brighter than ever. "And who said I even wanted to make out with him?"

"Make out with who?"

Just then, Jeon Jungkook pulled the earbuds out of his ears, dropping his bag to the ground and setting his phone down right on top of his desk-- his phone, and the little brown bear charm hanging from it, its disgustingly cute face staring straight into Hoseok's soul.

"Oh, hey, Kook--"

"You bitch."

Taehyung's eyes immediately filled with horror, grabbing Hoseok roughly by the arm and forcing him to turn back around so he could scold him properly. "Hobi-hyung, what in the the actual fuck--"
