song: heart- alone
After an exhausting day of trying to hide my hurt, I arrive back at the dorm with Jimin and begin setting up food and drinks for the guys coming over.
Jungkook didn't show up to any of the afternoon classes and I don't think he'll be showing up tonight either. All day it's been all I can think about. Not once have my nerves settled. Jimin even told me my eyes had been flickering green on and off the whole afternoon.
I just wanted him to know the truth and now I've pushed him away again. The aching in my heart only seems to get worse the longer I wait. I guess suppressing emotions does that to someone though. I know I only have myself to blame. I've been too self-absorbed in trying to push my power away that I barely spared a thought about how much that hurt him. Since both are so closely connected, pushing my power away only pushed him away even more.
"Grey are you gonna be okay with everyone here tonight?" Jimin asks as we finish setting up the kitchen island with snacks.
"What? Oh...yeah I'll be fine." I breathe out as I take a seat on the sofa.
He sits down beside me tilting his head as he searches my face for an answer. "Are you sure? Your eyes haven't stopped flickering since class."
"Faulty powers I guess." I chuckle slightly turning away from him.
Ugh I'm a terrible liar.
Feeling too tense to stay seated, I get up again and head back to the kitchen to grab a glass of water and try to distract myself from my thoughts.
"Grey did something happen when you left with Jungkook earlier?" He calls from the sofa.
I stay where I am, back facing him so he can't see the tears beginning to pool in my eyes. I take a deep breath steadying my voice before answering. "Course not, we were just talking."
"What did you talk about?"
His voice gets louder the closer he gets to me. Dammit Jimin leave it alone.
"Just class. Why all the questions? I told you I'm fine." I say frustrated.
"And I don't believe you." He says from right behind me.
I lower my head and sigh defeated as I turn to face him. "Fine. He doesn't want anything to do with me anymore okay?" I suddenly feel the tears I was holding back all afternoon leave my eyes all at once.
Jimin pulls me into a hug and gently rubs my back, "He doesn't mean that Grey."
"He does this time."
He pulls away from me eyebrows crossed as he huffs out a frustrated sigh, "Tell me what he said. There's no way in hell he doesn't want you anymore. You're pretty much the only thing he's ever wanted."
