EPISODE 14

Morning light streams through Jimin's window, illuminating his tear-stained face. He wakes up with a start, his heart heavy from the previous day's events. Jimin reaches for his phone, hoping for a message or call from Jungkook, but there is nothing — no texts, no calls, no notifications.

Jimin's anxiety spikes. Why hasn’t Jungkook reached out? Is he still with Taehyung? The uncertainty suffocates him, and he decides to take matters into his own hands.

MEANWHILE TAEKOOK.

Jungkook wakes up, smiling at Taehyung beside him. "Good morning, love," he whispers.

Taehyung replies with a smile, his eyes still closed. "Good morning, Kookie."

"Do you remember everything that happened yesterday?" Jungkook asks.

Taehyung nods.

Jungkook's heart skips a beat. His voice trembles as he says, "I know it's too early to ask, but... will you be my boyfriend?"

Taehyung opens his eyes, and he smiles. "I'm already your boyfriend, Jungkook."

Jungkook's excitement overflows. He pulls Taehyung closer, and he kisses him. Their lips meet in a slow, tender kiss. "Thank you so much, Taehyung."

Jimin arrives at Jungkook's house, expecting to find him alone. He greets Jungkook's mother in the kitchen and makes his way to Jungkook's room, wanting to surprise him. But when he opens the door, his heart stops. Jungkook and Taehyung are kissing.

Jimin's world crumbles around him. He feels like an intruder, the pain of betrayal stabbing at his chest. Without a word, Jimin turns and walks away, silently closing the door and disappearing from view.

Jungkook and Taehyung remain lost in their intimate moment, unaware of Jimin's brief presence. Jimin's mind reels as he navigates the quiet streets, his thoughts consumed by the shocking scene he has just witnessed.

AFTER SOMETIME.

Taehyung's voice turns playful, with a hint of poutiness. "I need to go home to change my clothes."

Jungkook's eyes sparkle with mischief. "Mind if you wear mine? I have two uniforms."

Taehyung raises an eyebrow, a smile teasing his lips. "You want me to wear your uniform?"

Jungkook nods, his face inches from Taehyung's. "Yeah, it'll look better on you anyway."

Taehyung's cheeks flush, but he can't hide the excitement. "Okay, but just for today."

Jungkook grins, pulling Taehyung closer. "Just for today, then."

As Jungkook hands Taehyung a crisp uniform, their fingers intertwine. The intimacy of sharing clothes feels like a secret promise, solidifying their newfound connection.

At school, Jungkook spots Jimin across the hallway. He hurries over, a bright smile on his face. "Good morning!" Jungkook chimes, expecting his usual warm response.

But Jimin's expression remains cold, his eyes avoiding Jungkook's. He walks past, ignoring Jungkook's greeting.

Jungkook's smile falters, confusion etched on his face. "Jimin?" he calls out, but Jimin continues walking, disappearing into the crowd.

Taehyung, noticing Jungkook's concern, steps closer. "What's wrong?" he whispers.

Jungkook's eyes linger on Jimin's retreating figure. "I don't know. Jimin just ignores me."

Taehyung's expression turns thoughtful. "Maybe he's just having a bad day?"

But Jungkook knows Jimin better. Something is off. Little does he know, Jimin's heart still aches from the morning's scene.
