20 - Pain

~Beth's Point of View~

"Something is very wrong," I whispered in Taehyung's ear, and he nodded gravely. We were sat in the living room, with the others, except Sam and Jungkook. We all had noticed their strange behaviour - hardly talking. Sam's tear streaked face even through she kept denying it, and Jungkook's unsmiling expression and bandaged hand. Something happened, but no one knew what. Sam was in the kitchen, and Jungkook was coming the stairs; I could hear his footsteps. I quickly got up and, after Jungkook went into the kitchen, followed him and stood in the shadow of the doorway so they couldn't see me.

~Jungkook's Point of View~

I dragged myself downstairs; the others would ask too many questions if I didn't make an appearance the whole night but honestly I wasn't in the mood to speak to anyone. I walked into the kitchen first, to get a drink, but stopped when I saw who was standing at the sink.

~Sam's Point of View~

I stood at the sink, tears dropping down my face. I came in here under the pretence of getting a drink, but in reality I just didn't want them to see me cry. I heard footsteps behind me, and quickly wiped my face with the back of my hand and plastered a smile on my face, before turning around. My smile dropped when I saw who it was.

~Jungkook's Point of View~

Her eyes were red and puffy. She'd been crying. I wanted to cuddle her, tell her not to cry. I almost asked her what's wrong before stopping myself. She doesn't care about you, why would you care about her? Why would she be crying all of a sudden anyway, probably the next part of her pretence. Well, I'm not falling for it.

~Sam's Point of View~

I could have sworn his expression softened for a moment before it turned cold. His steely gaze looked past mine, as he grabbed a glass and poured himself some water. It was then that I saw his hand - wrapped in a bandage.
"Your hand! What happened!" I gasped, forgetting for a moment... He snatched his hand away and walked out, without a second glance. What, he's dropped his nice act now? Isn't even going to pretend to like me anymore?
I sank to my knees and put my head in my hands, sobbing. "Jungkook..."

"Sam!" I heard a gasp and someone ran to me, kneeling beside me and wrapping their arms around me. I knew it was Beth.
"Let's go upstairs, so you can explain..."
I nodded, and let her pull me up. I dragged myself up the stairs, and flopped onto my bed, my face buried into the pillow.

~Beth's Point of View~

After leading Sam up the stairs, I scurried back down and into the living room. No sign of Jungkook. I quickly explained what I witnessed in the kitchen, and watched the boys' faces turn shocked and serious.
"I need to go to her," Suga stood up, but I shook my head at him.
"No, I'll just go. I know her better, she doesn't like crowds when she's upset... And I've never seen her this bad," I sighed, and left the room.

~Suga's Point of View~

I watched Beth leave the room, and sat back down, placing my head in my hands. When Sam first arrived... I don't know. It felt different; I felt different around her. I thought maybe, that I felt something for her. But, I knew Jungkook liked her, so I didn't do anything about it. And I'm glad I didn't, because when I saw the pair yesterday the happiness on both of their faces was undeniable. And, strangely, I didn't feel the slightest bit upset or jealous... And I realised that my feelings weren't that I like her in that way, it was because of how good of a friend she was to me; she was like a sister. And I didn't want to see either her, nor Jungkook whom I also loved very much and cared for, upset like this.
"Right, when Beth comes back down, we're going to do something about this." I stated, and no one spoke, only nodded.

~Beth's Point of View~

Sam sobbed and sobbed. It frightened me to see it, honestly - I'd seen her cry before, but never like this. It was Jungkook; he did this, and my anger was building up at him, but I couldn't say anything until I knew what the problem was.
"Hey..." I said gently, placing a hand on her back as she eventually stopped crying. "What's the matter? What did he do?"

She didn't say anything for a while, and I waited patiently for her response.
"I... Don't want to talk about it. I'm sorry," She whispered, and I understood. She must be really upset because she usually tells me when she's worried about something. I sighed and told her to sleep, which she dutifully did, burying her face in the pillow. I walked out, switching off the light on the way out. I knew how much Jungkook meant to her, and we had to put this right.

~Jin's Point of View~

Beth stepped back into the living room, where we were waiting.
"How is she?" Suga asked. "Can I go see her?"
Beth answered sadly, "She's sleeping, she cried herself to sleep..."
I sighed. What exactly happened?
"I'm going to go find Jungkook," I said, and Rapmon nodded at me. I stood up and wandered the downstairs of the house. No one. I then went upstairs, but still no sign of him. Where could he have gone?
Suddenly, it occurred to me where he would be.
I went into the kitchen and turned the handle of the back door, which was already unlocked. I stepped out into the dark, and began walking down the garden. I could see a lone figure right at the back, sitting in the swing in the corner. I walked up to him and sat next to him, placing a hand on his shoulder.
"Jungkook..."

"Jin hyung..." He whispered. I didn't say anything; I knew when he needed peace.
"I really like her, I don't know what I did..." He whispered, barely audible.
"What happened?" I asked gently, but he didn't reply. I sighed and put an arm around his shoulder. After minutes of silence, I grabbed him by the shoulders and pulled him up, leading him back into the house.

~Suga's Point of View~

"Neither of them will tell us what is wrong! How do we do anything to help?" Jimin said frustrated.
Taehyung sighed, "But if we do nothing it'll get worse..."
"Well, they could resolve it themselves, they are mature enough for that." Rapmon suggested, but J-Hope disagreed.
"No, it seems too big of a thing to sort itself out in my opinion..."

The discussion continued like this, making no progress. I sighed and stood up, walking out of the room and up the stairs, to Sam's room.
Tentatively, I opened the door, and stepped inside. She was curled up on her side, the blankets pulled close to her. Her face was printed with tear stains. It saddened me to see her like this, because all the while we'd seen her and Beth, even if it was only a few weeks, they were always smiling no matter what. I gingerly sat on the edge of the bed, and tucked a strand of hair out of her face. She shuffled, and mumbled something. I leaned closer to hear what she was saying.
"Stay... Please don't go.." She mumbled in her sleep. She probably meant that for Jungkook... She gripped my hand all of a sudden and didn't let go. I guess I'll have to stay until she fell back into a deeper sleep, not that I minded.

~Jungkook's Point of View~

"Just go to bed, get some sleep Jungkookie," Jin said to me, using one of my nicknames. I nodded and slowly trekked up the stairs, and subconsciously slowed as I passed her room. The door was slightly ajar... Suga was sitting by her side, holding her hand as she slept. I frowned angrily; that should be me...NO. No it shouldn't. She doesn't care remember.
I turned away and headed to my room, not taking a second glance.
