DOLCE AMORE | VKOOK

chapter ten.

"Let's fucking end this."

Taehyung's deep voice is brimming with irritation.

The omega just shamelessly revealed that he got sick on purpose just to bring Taehyung here at his apartment.

"No." Hyuji shook his head, clutching tightly on the bed sheets. "I don't want to."

"Hyuji." Taehyung grits his teeth. Annoyance bubbling in his chest. "This whole thing between us, you know damn well it's never gonna last. It's going nowhere and I hate myself for using you and for fooling myself."

"Taehyung, please..." He hears the omega beg but he couldn't give a damn anymore, he needed to let the words out.

"I've clearly told you in the beginning. I just needed you to forget someone else!"

"And I also told you that I don't care about that Tae! Is it still him? Huh? Does your heart... does it still beat for that person?" Hyuji is now close to having a breakdown.

The alpha closes his eyes shut and turns his back to the omega. An ache started to form in his forehead and he balls his hands into fists.

Taehyung knows he's a big time asshole for what he's doing. He's very aware of that fact and he hates it. He hates how he can easily hurt other people just because his stupid heart wants someone who's forbidden for him.

And the pain seeped through his veins when his brain reminded him that he too, hurt Jungkook in the process.

"Hyuji, I..." Taehyung took a deep breath. "You know I can't."

"Can't what?" Hyuji raises his voice louder, doe eyes brimming with tears. "Can't accept the fact that I'm in love with you? And that you can't love me back? Is that it?"

"For fuck's sake Hyuji!" The alpha quickly turns around to face him again, now fuming mad. "I have reminded you for a hundred times that this relationship between us will never ever be serious. You agreed, Hyuji. You fucking agreed in our deal and you were even the one who even initiated it. I've just accepted it!"

"Fucking hell, Tae." Hyuji curses, shaking his head in disbelief as if he couldn't believe the words that were coming out of the alpha's mouth. "Is this really it? You're just gonna end this thing between us?"

"Hyuji." Taehyung's voice softens, he feels something twisting in his gut as he sees the hurt evidently flashes in the omega's eyes.

Almost ten months ago, the pair met at the Prism Club in Itaewon. Taehyung just happens to get drunk out of his mind when he sees continuous Instagram posts of Jungkook with an alpha while stalking his profile.

He was restless. He couldn't stop the pain aching in his chest. He knew he shouldn't feel that way. He doesn't have the right. Why would anyone feel that way towards their cousin? Feel jealous because they're hanging out with someone?

Determined to bury the forbidden emotions consuming his whole body, he went to the club to temporarily forget and distract himself.

And in that place, he met Hyuji who has the same eyes as the person he's aching for.

It was simply a hookup but both of them met again in the same university. And from there, the omega proposed a deal with him.

"Use me to forget that person." Hyuji exclaims as he exhales out the smoke from his cigarette.

The two were in his apartment that time, just finished reaching their climaxes. There was a message from his mother that Jungkook would be studying in SNU in the next five months.

Taehyung quickly diverts his eyes from his phone to the omega, bewildered. "Do you even hear what you're saying right now?"

"I mean," Hyuji shrugs. "I wouldn't mind."
