Fifth Lie

Jungkook

Fifth Lie: I love my girlfriend more than anything or anyone

"Kook, where have you been all day, you have been ignoring my calls", Miranda whines. "I've been busy okay, I don't need to be with you every second of every day", I say annoyed, "let's go, I want to go home." She called and asked for a ride home after cheerleading practice, I agreed hoping it would take my mind off of the memory of watching Jin drive away with Dr. Handsome but now I have to hear her bitch. "I'm pregnant Kook", she says nonchalantly.

I look over at her and sigh, on the way to her house I pull into the drug store and take my wallet out giving her money, "go get a test." "You are an asshole do you know that", she screeches. "Yes I do, now go", I say annoyed. A few minutes later she is back in the passenger seat with a small plastic bag containing her pregnancy test.

When I pull out of the parking lot she notices the way I am heading, "why are we going this way and not to your house." "I have things to do and you know my dad doesn't like you at the house, so I am taking you home", I say telling her the truth. Tears threaten to fall from her eyes, "whatever."

When we get to her house I follow her inside and up to her room, I sit on her bed and wait, she looks at me confused, "TAKE THE FUCKING TEST MIRANDA." She jumps and starts crying, running into the bathroom and slamming the door, a few seconds later she comes out and looks at me sadly, "I lied, I'm not pregnant, I just wanted some attention."

I sigh and stand up, "Miranda the past year has been great but this has to end", I say. "NO Jungkook, you can't leave me, I love you", she cries, "I'm sorry I lied, I won't do it again." "That's not why I am leaving you M, we just haven't been in a good place, you can do better than me", I say rubbing her shoulders.

"Kook, please", she begs. "I'm sorry M", I kiss her forehead and walk out, heading downstairs I hear things hitting her bedroom door, I shake my head, I should feel bad but I don't, because I know I did the right thing.

I pull in my driveway and when I step out of my car I hear screaming, fuck that's Jin, I run into his house when I find the front door unlocked and see Gino twisting Jin's bad arm behind his back, "YOU ARE A FUCKING IDIOT, YOU LOST YOUR SCHOLARSHIP OVER A STUPID FIGHT." I run over and push Gino away making him stumble, giving me time to grab Jin and get him out of this fucking house.

I practically carry him to my house and into my bedroom, I lay him down on my bed as he cries and holds his shoulder, I sit beside him, "did he dislocate it again." "I don't think so", he says starting to calm down but hiding his face in my pillow, he is embarrassed. "You don't have to hide from me Jin, this is me remember", I say reaching to play with his hair but he sits up quickly making me pull my hand back.

"Remember, did you say remember, do you know what I remember Jungkook, all the hateful slurs, all the glares, all the times you shoved your girlfriend in my face to hurt me, that's what I remember, the pain my dad inflicts me will never hurt as much as the pain you have caused me", he tries to get up but I grab him and hug him to me.

"Seokjin I am so sorry, I was a huge asshole, I'm so sorry", I plead. He gets out of my grip and stands, holding his shoulder, "what am I supposed to say, that it's all okay because you apologized, yet all the times I apologized I got nothing from you, fuck you."

I turn to leave but he grabs my wrist, "don't leave, he will only go after you again, just stay here, I won't bother you but please just stay here." I sigh, "fine." "Let me go get you some ice for you shoulder, I'll be right back", Jungkook says leaving his room. When he comes back he tells me to lay on the bed on my stomach, "I'll lay the ice pack on your shoulder." I must have fallen asleep because when I wake up it's dark outside, I sit up and look around, Jungkook is sitting at his desk doing homework, "what time is it."

He turns and looks at his phone, "almost 8, are you hungry, I just ordered some pizzas." "Yea, thank you for the ice, my shoulder feels better", I say scooting to the edge of the bed and running my hands thru my hair. "You can shower if you want, I have clothes you can use", he says closing his book. "Stop being nice, it's weird", I say walking into the bathroom and shutting the door. I let the hot water run over me, thoughts of what Dr. Han said going thru my mind, is Jungkook really jealous, I guess I could test the theory and see his reaction. 

I step out and dry my hair leaving my body wet, I wrap the towel around me and walk out, his eyes darken and his nostrils flare as he stares at my wet chest, then down at the towel that doesn't do a lot to hide my bulge. "You said you had clothes I could borrow", I say snapping him out of his thoughts. "Oh ah yea, are sweatpants okay", he says standing and going to his dresser. "Yes that's fine", I say with a smirk. "Maybe I should go, I don't want to overstay my welcome, Han wants to go out tonight so maybe I'll just", my words are cut off when he hands me the pants. 

"No, I ordered us pizzas and thought we'd watch a movie, like we used to", he says sheepishly. I want to smile but I don't because he can change his mind at anytime, "okay, I'll stay if you are sure but won't Miranda get upset." "We broke up this afternoon", he says like it's no big deal. "You did, why", I ask. "You were right, I don't love her, I never did, so it wasn't fair to keep stringing her along", he says. 

He walks to his dresser and grabs a bottle of soju, "stole it from the liquor cabinet." I feel my mouth quirk up into a small smile, "I miss that ya know." "What", I ask. "That naughty grin of yours, I always knew we'd get in trouble whenever I saw it", he says. I look at him, his eyes bore into mine, "I'm tired Jungkook, I'm tired of fighting, tired of missing you." "I'm tired too, I miss my best friend, just promise you won't try to kiss me", he says. I sigh, "I said I was sorry, I promise to never try to kiss you again."
