I Need You | pjm•kth

It seemed like forever for Friday to finally come, Jimin happy that after this day he wouldn't have school for another two days. But the situation he was currently in had not gotten any better. Jungkook still hadn't made up his mind as to whether or not he wanted to continue his relationship with Jimin and the latter hadn't spoken to Taehyung since that morning.

In every class they had together, Taehyung requested to move seats so he was no longer sat with the red head. Talking to the younger had crossed his mind but he didn't want to further anger Jungkook if he were to find out.

Both Jimin and Hoseok were on their way to the sports hall for their gym class, heading towards the locker room where everyone was changing. As they entered, Jimin's eyes fell upon Taehyung who was in the corner undressing, surrounded by a group of guys.

He couldn't help but feel slightly irritated when those guys let their stares linger on Taehyung's body a little too longer than necessary. The younger didn't even notice Jimin, not once looking in his direction which was painful for the latter. He didn't realise how hard it would be to stop speaking to Taehyung.

He didn't realise how much of an impact he had on his life already.

"Jimin-ah, are you even listening to me?" He heard Hoseok say, snapping him out of his thoughts. "Hm? Sorry, what were you saying?" The older simply shook his head, shrugging it off as he began to change into his sports uniform. "Are you okay? You've been spacing out a lot nowadays"

Jimin simply sighed as he took off his shirt. "I feel like everything was just pointless" He spoke, grabbing his T-shirt from his bag. "I said I'll lose contact with Taehyung so I could save my relationship with Jungkook but is there even a relationship? I just lost a friendship and a relationship"

Hoseok simply listened to his friend, knowing that he had a lot to say that he was keeping to himself. "And I understand that Jungkook is pissed off, I would be too. But I think it's stupid that he told me to forget about Taehyung if he doesn't want to even be with me anymore"

Even though they were being as quiet as they could be, Taehyung had overheard the majority of the conversation and couldn't help but to feel sympathetic towards the red head. He didn't know that Jungkook still wasn't talking to Jimin. He put those thoughts aside when someone called for him to go to the halls.

Meanwhile, Jimin and Hoseok were still getting ready, distracted by their talks. "But you know who I'm the most mad at? Myself. I let Taehyung take the blame for all this when it wasn't his fault at all. He was fucking drunk, how was he to know what had happened? It's all my fault. Why did he try save my relationship with Jungkook? Why did I let him?"

Hoseok paused for a moment, slightly confused. "Jimin.. Do you want to continue your relationship with Kookie? I mean, I know that you're waiting for his answer but to me it seems like you're not a hundred percent okay with going back into it"

The red head heaved a sigh, sitting down on one of the benches as he put on his trainers. "I love him, I really do. And I'd do anything for him, I've shown that to him so many times already. But I feel like that's not enough for him and I don't know what else to do. I feel like whatever I do doesn't please him yet I can't do anything else. This relationship isn't feeling like a relationship anymore"

Jimin felt horrible for saying such words about his and Jungkook's relationship. The latter meant the world to him and didn't want to hurt him in any way. "And I think that this one mistake that I made is the beginning of our relationship falling apart."

Since almost everyone had exited the changing rooms, the two decided to follow, quietly continuing their conversation.

"You guys need to talk and figure it out. Only then can you work on your relationship with Taehyung. If there even is one anymore" Hoseok advised, Jimin shrugging his shoulders. "I guess so. There's not much I can actually do at this moment"

Lunchtime came and Jimin headed over to sit at the table with Jin, something he'd often do when he didn't want to be alone. The older was great company and helped him forget about his problems and worries.

"Hey, Jimin" Jin smiled brightly, waving. The younger returned the smile as he took a seat next to him, placing his bag on the floor. He then noticed another food tray on the opposite side of Jin, causing him to raise an eyebrow. "Is someone else sitting here?" He questioned.

"Actually, yeah. Jimin, I spoke to-"

Before Jin was able to finish his sentence, a familiar face sat down beside him, surprising Jimin a little. He stared at the silver haired boy, slightly confused. "Namjoon hyung?" The latter simply waved his hand before picking up a grape from his tray and placing it into his mouth.

Jimin glanced between the two, trying but unable to make a link between them. "Explain?"

"Well, yesterday when you ditched me at lunch," Jin began, narrowing his eyes at the red haired boy who sheepishly looked away. "Namjoon joined me. I couldn't find Jungkook or anyone so I was sat alone and he decided to sit with me. And we talked for a long time so I told him to sit with us regularly since Taehyung-"

Jin abrubtly stopped, glancing over at Jimin whose face dropped instantly on hearing the name.

"Anyways, I was bored since I broke up with my girlfriend so I have no one to be with. Jin is great company so I'm glad he invited me to sit with him again" Namjoon spoke up, trying to change the topic before it became too awkward.

"Yeah, hyung is amazing company" Jimin smiled softly as he let out a small sigh.

"Have you.. spoken to Taehyung?" He asked Namjoon who nodded his head. "I try go to his house whenever I can but he doesn't really speak much about what happened. I'm just happy he's not pushing me away again"

Jimin furrowed his eyebrows at that. "Again?" The silver haired boy let out a small sigh. "In our old school, before I left, I could tell that he wanted to stop what he was doing and get rid of his reputation by starting again. But no one would let him. I tried helping him but I guess he didn't want me involved in any way because he cut off contact with me for a bit. I wouldn't let him, though. Even though I was ignored by him, I continued to speak to him until he eventually responded again"

Namjoon let out a sigh, resting his chin on the palm of his hand. "But I don't want it to happen again. And I don't want him to start this up again. I know that deep down, he doesn't want to do this"

Jimin was now conflicted. If he wanted to help Taehyung, there would be no relationship with him and Jungkook. But if he didn't help Taehyung, it could possibly get out of hand. He chewed on his bottom lip as he stared down at his food tray.

It was hard to choose between the two.
