Third Person POV

Jeongguk wakes up in Yoongi and Namjoon's guest room with a tired body and a heavy tongue and an inability to properly open his eyes. So, he goes back to sleep because the sun wasn't out yet.

It's probably a few hours later that Yoongi comes to wake him up and he doesn't feel much of the tiredness he did before as he accepts a glass of water from Yoongi.

"You awake now?" Yoongi asks and Jeongguk looks at him, nods. Yoongi takes a seat on the edge of the bed.

"If you ever, ever fucking used a dr*g again just because you're a jealous bastard, I swear---".

"It was just one---".

"One line or a million, don't you dare do it again. I will not let you fall in that stupid routine just like you did after your mother died." Yoongi says.

"It was barely two weeks. You stopped me right there and then and I haven't used them ever since." Jeongguk defends himself.

"Till yesterday and that was not supposed to happen!" Yoongi exclaims.

"It's fine. It was just a one time thing." Jeongguk shrugs.

"And you can thank all the deities out there that I stopped you all those years ago or who knows what would've happened!" Yoongi exclaims.

"I know! I stopped and I know how you feel about dr*gs but you don't stop Hoseok, Jimin or Jin hyung either!" Jeongguk utters, huffing in frustration.

"Because they've got no reasons to be addicted to them. They know how to control them and I can't make them stop using it altogether but I know they're not using it every minute of their lives. There's a difference." Yoongi says.

"Really? You're the one saying this?" Jeongguk asks.

"Yes because they have two fucking examples right in front of them to not be reckless with them." Yoongi says and Jeongguk looks at his lap, sighs.

"You know I won't use them again. I just---I was not thinking clearly and I know you two have suffered because of what I thought is a one time thing last night." Jeongguk mumbles.

"Yes, I know. Eunwoo was worried as well." Yoongi says.

"It was because of him." Jeongguk snorts and Yoongi shakes his head.

"You're stupid. It was no reason to get high on it. You're not coping up with it the way you should." Yoongi shakes his head.

"It won't happen again. Tell Eunwoo I'm fine." Jeongguk assures.

"Tell him yourself." Yoongi shrugs.

"Promise me you won't do that again." Yoongi says after a moment.

"I promise---".

"Because this isn't a way to make things right with Taehyung. If you want to make things right, don't ever do this again." Yoongi says and Jeongguk nods immediately.

"I promise I won't." Jeongguk assures.

"Also, your car is at the repair." Yoongi utters and Jeongguk frowns.

"Don't fucking drive when you're drunk or high you fucker." Yoongi groans.

"And do you remember what you did last night?" Yoongi asks and Jeongguk looks at him, eyes widening.

"At Taehyung's shop?" Yoongi says and Jeongguk seems to be frozen at the spot, probably his mind making him remember all the stuff he did as much as it can.
