Taehyung walks out of the airport with sunglasses and mask, his eyes were searching for someone in the crowd.
He waves at the stranded figure of Lisa who is also looking around for him.
"TAEHYUNG" she yells excited and sprint towards crushing him with a bear hug.
"I miss you" Lisa said not letting go of Taehyung and hugging him tight.
"Ahem" She heard someone cough behind her and l
She let go of Taehyung immediately, she smiles sweetly at the girl standing besides her and hug her instead
"Taehyung this is my girlfriend Jennie and Jennie this is Taehyung my best friend ex boyfriend" Lisa introduced them to each other and then instruct Taehyung to follow behind them.
Taehyung nods carrying his suitcase and walking behind them, He was looking at them being sweet to each other with a straight face but his heart pinch a bit when he remembers how him and jungkook used to be like them.
He shrugged the feelings off and ignore how his heart sink at the thought of jungkook especially when Lisa introduced him as jungkook's ex boyfriend.
It has been five years since Jungkook broke up with him for no reason but his heart still beats fast at the mention of jungkook name. He can't forget jungkook no matter how hard he tried,
He remembered how he had questioned jungkook and everything when jungkook broke up with him over the phone without a valid reasons, He was studying aboard when they broke up and almost flew back to Korea to make up with Jungkook.
It took almost a year before he came to realisation that their relationship is over and slowly came to terms with it.
In the past four years, he tried convincing himself he is over jungkook and jungkook means nothing to him anymore but deep down he knows he can't stop thinking about jungkook.
"Gross" Taehyung said with disdain in his voice and look away, Immediately he snaps out of his thoughts he notices Jennie and Lisa kissing right in his face and he looks away disgusted at their action.
He puts on his headphone rest his back against the car seat and close his eyes ignoring everything and everyone around him.
"Come on Taehyung we arrived at the location" Lisa taps his shoulder gently thinking he fell asleep. He open his eye and look around him in a daze state for a minute before he remembers where they are..
He climbs out the car and follow the jiggy Lisa who is full of excitement to the hotel, Their high school classmates organised a get together inviting all their old classmates together to have fun and catch up with each other.
Taehyung could feel his sweaty palms at the thought of seeing jungkook in the get together, He can't pin what exactly he is feeling right now. He doesn't know how he is going to react when he sees jungkook after so may years.
He is happy to see Jungkook but at the same time want to show jungkook how far he has gotten without Jungkook by his side.
But his chest feels heavy at the same time thinking jungkook might show up with his partner and maybe jungkook already moves on from him and found someone else.
He blocks out Lisa bantering and took heavy steps as they got closer to their destination.
"I need to use the restroom" He yells and run the opposite direction leaving confused Lisa and Jennie behind.
No, He can't do this. He is not strong enough to face Jungkook. He is not ready to see Jungkook happy without him, he has thought of this moment a billion times in his head on how he is going to meet jungkook face to face but now that it is becoming a reality, he is scared and run off without a second thought.
He barges into the restroom and locks him in there, He tried holding it in but his shield collapse and tears rush downs his cheek, soft muffled sounds escape from his lips.
He cry his eyes out, letting out all the pain he has been holding in for years.
Few minutes later, He quiet down hearing two people walk into the restroom.
"This get together is going to be the talk of the town, I already planned for us to have so much fun... No one will wanna miss it"
"Too bad jungkook is going to miss it" Taehyung ear perked at the mention of Jungkook's name, He frowns thinking jungkook is avoiding coming to the get together cause he doesn't want to see him
"Yeah poor kid, I heard he had an accident and can't use his leg again"
"He used to love dancing and now that he can't dance anymore, he lost all hope and is living in self-destruction...."
"What did you say happen to jungkook" Taehyung asks grabbing the guy collar and shaking him violently, His vein popping and his eyes red due to crying for so long and hearing the news of jungkook gave him a shock and he lost sense of thinking.
"TELL ME WHAT HAPPENED TO JUNGKOOK" he yell at the guy's face who is scared seeing Taehyung acting so crazy.
He quickly explained what happened five years ago when Taehyung was studying aboard.
Jungkook had an accident a few weeks before one of the performance that can change his life and makes him debut in a kpop group, Even after fracturing his leg jungkook didn't give up on his dream and continue practices after three days of bed rest, all was going well until the day of the performance.
Jungkook had to perform a stunt at the end of the performance and that apply too much pressure on his fractured bone, Breaking his bone and suffering unimaginable pain in the leg.
Even though Jungkook's leg could still walk in the future, he could no longer dance as he used to.
The news of not being able to dance in the future shattered jungkook completely and he gave up on everything including Taehyung and his leg.
He Broke up with Taehyung without explaining why and bluntly refuse to get therapy to treat his leg.
"Jungkook" Taehyung let go of the guy's collar and sit dejected on the cold tiles of the restroom, The only thing running through his mind is how much suffering jungkook is going through.
Jungkook had to give up on his dream forever, He knows how much jungkook dream to be a famous idol and perform on stage infront of millions of people.
Jungkook was going to be the brightest star and was meant to shine bright but now the star is being forced to hide behind the cloud and never show the world a glimpse of how bright it could shine.
In the past five years, he has been going through pain and self blame over thinking why jungkook broke up with him but compare to the pain Jungkook has been through the past five years.
His heart bled at not there when jungkook needed him the most, when jungkook was going through the darkest moments of his life he was living his best life.
He is part of one of the biggest boy group in the world but what about jungkook.
What about jungkook
What about jungkook's dreams.
