The Truth Untold- 지극

VI

With that Tae left the room with only Jimin and Jungkook now. Jungkook kept laughing until he heard sobs.

Jungkook slowed down and looked at Jimin. The sliver head had his head buried in his arms, his shoulder shaking and small sniffs were heard.

Jungkooks's heart dropped to the bottom of his chest when he realised Jimin was crying.

"Jimin..." he quickly ran up to him and grabbed his shoulders. "Hey...hey, what's wrong? Jimin please.."

"J-Jungkook..." Jimin shuttered between his sobs. He slowly raised his head, his red teary eyes meeting Jungkook's worried stares.

Oh no he looks so miserable.

"I lied Jungkook. I am a horrible person. I lied about Jaykay being my boyfriend. I don't know him. I fucking don't even know what does he look like?!!" Jimin yelled out in frustation as he grabbed on either side of his mentals.

"I-I....I'm gonna tell him the truth." Jimin hiccuped. "Doesn't matter if he kicks me out. I'm gonna- gonna...." He started crying loudly in his palms making Jungkook panick.

oh fuck.

No no no Jimin please don't cry!!

"Jimin. Hey, stop crying. I'll help you. I'll help you Jimin. We can get out of this together, yeah?" Jungkook whispered rubbing his hand on the shorter's back.

"How would you help me, Jungkook?" Jimin sighed. "It's of no use. I know I'm fucked up. I shouldn't have started this in the first place. But I was helpless..."

"If I wouldn't lie and tell them that Jaykay was my boyfriend I'd probably loose my job way back then and be homeless by now. I think I wouldn't be even be alive. But it's okay cause now I'm gonna be jobless and lifeless-"
He cried louder again.

Jungkook rubbed his forehead. He so bad wanted to tell the shorter that he was 'Jaykay' his boyfriend but he couldn't.

"I can be your boyfriend. "

What?

Jimin stopped suddenly. He raised his head and sniffed loudly, trying to view Jungkook through his blurry visions.

"But Tae was doing the same thing. It makes no difference if you do it or any other guy. " he said lowly.

"I'll try my best Jimin. And I promise..." Jungkook reached out his hand and cupped Jimin's face with his one hand, lifting his face up while he rubbed his thumb on Jimin's tears with the other hand. "...I promise I won't let you down, Jimin."

Jungkook was so into calming the boy down, he didn't even notice his close their face was now. The taller kept rubbing his thumb over Jimin's cheeks, until they subconsciously landed down on his lips.

Jimin gulped, he looked into his black doe eyes that looked somewhat different today. His gaze slowly darting down to Jungkook's lips.

The tension between them was so high and so pent up, they didn't get it even when they subconsciously leaned in so much close that there was barely an inch gap between their lips.

Jimin had already closed his eyes but Jungkook was staring at those plump lips with so much emotions in his stares, like the was starving since a week and those lips of Jimin were the last thing he could devour on.

But something inside Jungkook, told him to stop. The fact that Jimin is unaware of the truth. Blinded by the fake lies of band over his eyes by Jungkook, Jimin was still on the innocent side.

And Jungkook didn't want to proceed without telling him the truth. He didn't want to break his heart. He didn't want to be a betrayer.

So he pulled over. He took the very moment to admire the way Jimin had sliver hair scattered all across his forehead, his teary eyes shut, his button nose red from sobbing and his lips pouted a little for the kiss?
