Black Magic [Jikook]

"Before you"

[Jungkook's POV]

I've never completely understood what went wrong in Taehyung and I's relationship. It kinda just happened before my eyes. All the cursing, the arguments and now the abuse. It was all too much to bare. I truly want to stay with him. For god sakes, he was my first love and my first - everything. But then Jimin comes along and puts me on the highest pedastal. He loves me and it just changes everything. Everything in my life just goes horribly wrong. If I made Taehyung hate me, who's to say Jimin won't soon hate me too?

I wake up on the porch and the corners of my mouth curled up. The thoughts of Jimin came flooding in my mind and I don't know how to make it stop. Why was this person; this boy, effecting and controlling so much of me? After today, I don't know if I ever want to talk to Taehyung. My body still aches from the way he treated me last night. I'm also scared that when I opened my front door, my mom will see the black and blue marks. I'm not ready for her to go ballistic on me. She never supported me and Taehyung's relationship in the first place.

I pause, resting my head back. I looked up at the stars and sighed. Slowly raising my hand up above my face to pretend to touch a glinting star. I move my fingers over the endless galaxy. I felt lost and free, no longer bound to rules or to anyone. The feeling of non-exsistance, It was breathtaking. Even though the stars were billions of miles and or light years away, they have never felt so close. I close my eyes shut and take a deep breath. I would kill to be a star right now. "Jimin...". I quickly sat up and chocked on the name I uttered. In a flash, I saw Taehyung, sitting on my porch steps and staring at me.

Taehyung took a deep breath and gestured for me to come sit next to him. I hesitated at first. I'm pretty sure he heard me call out Jimin's name. That's doesn't mean good for me but I agreed anyway and sat next to him, avoiding his continuous stare. The awkwardness was sinking in and the only thing that could be heard was the songs of crickets. Taehyung then turns to me. "How long?". He asked and I didn't understand what he meant. How long have I've been missing us? Or How long have I've been lonely and hurt by his decisions? But I'm sure it was how long have I've been out of love with him? Easy. "Only a month." I whispered my response. It has been a month since I've kissed Jimin for the first time and ever since then, Taehyung was the least on my mind.

Taehyung laughed and it kind of shocked me. "Is that so?" He exhaled and I felt tense. "Jungkook. I've never meant to hurt you. You know that, right?" He turned to me, desperation in his voice. He knew we were over and that I wouldn't take him back. It was all up to forgiveness. Never in my nightmares have I imagined breaking up with Taehyung. I loved him. I wanted to expand our lives together, maybe even get married if god willing, we could. I had many future goals for us. It was almost magical we lasted this long. For 5 years, I've known Kim Taehyung and have been his boyfriend for 3. I'll never forget him but what we got or what we used to have. It's long gone. I'm going to start looking forward. To conquer happiness.

"I know that. But I can't allow it to continue on like this. Taehyung, there are something's that don't last. So please, just let me go. You'll find happiness and so will I. I just can't-anymore , okay? I rather you say it first. For closure." I smile and get ready for Taehyung to speak.

"Jungkook. Let's break up."
