RICH, SPOILED, BRAT

TWENTY FOUR

JEON JUNGKOOK

The car ride was excruciatingly quiet for Jungkook as Hoseok drove him and Namjoon home. He could sense the tension from his friends and was already fed up with it. He doesn't want to spend fifteen minutes in a car with awkward silence.

"Go on. I know you guys are dying to say something", Jungkook remarked, leaning back against the backseat of the sedan.

His friends glanced at each other before having one of them speak.

"What you said back there was really mean, Kook", Namjoon said and Hoseok immediately agreed.

"Yeah, Joon is right. What were you thinking?"

Jungkook took deep breaths still angry at what had happened and to hear his friends defend someone other than him was pissing him off more.

"All I did was tell him what he needed to hear", he said, subconsciously touching the hidden sore side of his neck. He was reminded of what occurred at the house and thought that he was nowhere near in the wrong for his actions. This wouldn't have happened if the boy would've left him alone to begin with.

"But what you said really hurt his feelings"

Like I give a shit about his feelings

"Okay and what about mine? Why should I give a fuck about his feelings when he clearly doesn't care for mine?", Jungkook defended and the two sighed at his response.

"You went too far, Jungkook"

Jungkook's eyes fluttered in bafflement at what he was hearing. His friends were actually taking his opposer's side. He couldn't believe this. He's been harassed by the brat for weeks before he was forced to live with him and now that he does, and things get out of hand, forcing him to do something about it, he's in the wrong.

"Are you serious? That asshole has been harassing me for weeks! And you guys want to sit here and tell me that I'm the bad guy for hurting his feelings? Whose side are you on?"

"We're not taking sides we're just saying—"

"Yes you are! I'm telling you that he harassed me. Are you even listening?", Jungkook cried out, wanting his friends to understand him but it was no use. They both stayed silent with nothing to add on.

"I'm not even surprised. When I told you guys that I was forced to live with a literal creep all you guys said was 'oh he's Park Jimin it can't be that bad' as if my feelings don't matter! Even now, when I'm telling you how I feel and why I said what I said, you still defend him!", Jungkook explained passionately as the two listened shamefully with nothing to spare.

"Forget it...", he sighed and stared out of the car window.

"Kook, we think you should just apologize. What you said was harsh", Joon tried to convince his friend once again.

"Where's his apology? When he crosses my boundaries not one person asks him to apologize, but I tell him the truth about himself and suddenly I need to drop to my knees and beg for forgiveness", Jungkook retorted, feeling his anger rise and his heart ache. He knew his friends will never come to understand where he is coming from.
