Lacy Secret | Jikook

➤ Chapter : 20

"So, this is how you ended up making him avoid and hate your existence even more ?"

"I said, shut up! This is all because of you!" Jimin yelled as he increased the pace of walking,

"You should've held your horses instead of accusing me who just tried to help two love birds sort things-"

"If you DO NOT shut your as-"

"Eh eh eh!!!" Taehyung yelps at the abrupt halt and Jimin's one fist on his collor while other directed to his face, "Don't you dare! You've already done enough damage!" Taehyung complained as his finger pointed at his own left cheek which had bandaid pasted on it.

Jimin scoffed and let Taehyung go with an eyeroll, " You're embarrassingly dramatic. The punch wasn't even that serious to show up with flowery bandaid on your good for nothing face in this University."

"What are you ? Two? You're embarrassing me, aish." Jimin completed as his face creased in disgrace. He then walked through the hallway covering the side of his face with a file while Taehyung followed,

"Yaah, punk!! You know exactly why I still have that bandaid on my face, then how could you-"

"Get out of your imagination, Taehyung-ah. Hoseok hyung does NOT like you like that." Jimin lent a breathy chuckle to Taehyung while tapping his shoulder with sympathy.

Only then Jimin felt his hand being held, making him stop and turn to look at suddenly serious and grim turned Taehyung, "Hey, I know we're bestfriends but do not talk about this matter like that!"

Jimin snickered, "like what ?, Like I know how he does not have a slight romantic feeling towards y-"

"If he didn't, why would he have protected me every fucking time ? Why does he care about me more than my brother ever did to me ? Why does he always sides with me whenever we quarrel? Like he did yesterday ?"

"He would do same for anyone, duh?" Jimin's eyebrows moulded in to deliver the tragic look, "And about me and you... He sides with you so you simply don't feel bad."

Taehyung's nose flared as he moved closer to Jimin with his finger agressively pointing at Jimin's face, "What you're saying is, he pities m-"

"Calm down, calm down our chocolate boy!" Taehyung was cut off in middle by the third voice, which actually made him shut instantly with a humph.

"I can hear your wrath from the end of the hallway."

"I'm skipping classes today, Changkyun. " Taehyung turned at the the familiar calm and composed handsome friend, I.M. who had subtle expression of surprise on his face,

"What happened to your cheeks ?!" I.M. asked and Taehyung took no time to point his finger to his left cheek to announce, "Park Jimin smacked me!"

I.M. glanced at unbothered Jimin who had lost investment in conversing as soon as I. M. was involved.
The boy had never really initiated or showed interest in talking to I.M. since the day one, that even the members of their gang had gotten used to of it. Even though I.M. belonged to the same group, Taehyung and Jackson never really tried to know or trespass in their buisness to talk or to not talk.

"You must've done something not so asked." I.m. shook his head, knowing Taehyung too well.

"Are you too withdrawing from my team ?!"

I.M. chuckled shaking his head at Taehyung's pout, "did Jimin do this too ?" He now asked curiously as he pointed at the other bandaid on the right cheek of Taehyung's speechless face,

"Umm..no.. This.. Actually this one umm.."

Taehyung broke at Jimin's mocking chuckle and narrowed his eyes, "what?!"
