Chapter twelve: let's still be friends

❀~~~~❀~~~~❀~~~~❀

Ⓦhen Taehyung exited his house to go to school, he had completely forgotten Jungkook was waiting outside for him to tag along and help him. As he tried hiding his surprised gasp, he only ignored his small greeting, although he couldn't exactly walk faster anymore.

"Are you angry with me?" Jungkook asked as he approached him and walked along beside him.

Taehyung sighed. "No."

Jungkook still stared at him. "I can tell you are."

"I said I'm not," he barked back, but it only raised Jungkook's suspiciousness.

"You really can't handle being rejected, can you?" he snapped back, and Taehyung stopped walking immediately and glared at Jungkook.

"I can't handle? I've been handling it ever since these stupid feelings came! You have no idea, you jerk! I've been suppressing my feelings for a long time, and when you happily presented your girlfriend to me, I was forcing myself to pretend like everything was okay!"

Jungkook was speechless - Taehyung had never talked back to him like that before, or admitting his feelings for that matter. "How could I know you had feelings for me? I thought you were my friend. Stuff like that happens in movies only! Am I supposed to be a mind reader?" he asked.

Taehyung rolled his eyes. "Can you go, please? I want to be alone."

Jungkook glared at him, refusing to listen to him. "There you go again!" he shouted. "Running away because you're a chicken who can't handle a little argument. Is it that hard to just talk to me? I'm not an asshole that doesn't give a shit about you, you know!"

"I know that!" Taehyung barked. "But I don't want to talk about it!"

"Because you're a baby!"

"Whoa, what's happening here?" someone interrupted them.

"Nothing Hoseok, stay out of it," Jungkook snapped at him, which surprised both their friend and Taehyung; Jungkook was always nice to people.

"We're done. Come on Hoseok," Taehyung muttered as he started limping, and that's when Hoseok realised he was on crutches.

"Oh my god!" he gasped. "What happened Tae?"

"A car drove over my leg," he answered quickly, hoping Jungkook had disappeared, but to his usual irony luck, he was still tailing behind.

"Why are you arguing anyways?" Hoseok asked, glancing back at the male from behind.

"He knows," Taehyung sighed.

"Oh, so everyone knew except from me?" Jungkook yelled from behind, but Taehyung ignored.

"Knew what?"

"That I like him," Taehyung muttered, "he knows now."

"Did you confess?" Hoseok gasped. "Did you have to do it now? He has a girlfriend, you know."

"I didn't confess," Taehyung rolled his eyes, "he figured it out."

"Shit," he mumbled as he glanced back at Jungkook again, who was staring at Taehyung's back all the way to the school as he walked a bit further behind.

"Where did you disappear to yesterday anyways?" Taehyung asked his friend when they reached their classroom, and Jungkook was finally out of sight.

"I went home after I saw you and Jungkook were suddenly gone," he explained.

"Idiot," Taehyung sighed, "he forced me to tell him why I was avoiding him and stuff. It was a hell." Taehyung had to stop and think. His worst nightmare had come. "He's going to hate me now, if he doesn't already."
