BIPOLAR ( VKOOK ) // COMPLETED

CHAPTER 28

KIM TAEHYUNG P.O.V

The trio went back to their own dorms and I was just left in the cold room with Jung kook by my side. I know that he was getting annoyed and just wanted to rest after the hectic day of getting traumatized by the other students and also almost dying.

I was also trying to keep my cool when Jung kook told me that he saw Park Jimin. How could that guy reveal such a thing when his mental state was as fragile as glass?! What was he thinking?!

Maybe he IS right, I cannot keep Jung kook safe like that ...

No, I love him and that feeling would never change.

I sighed deeply, I was torn between him and the truth , the harsh truth. Jimin was begging to get punched in the jaw. I looked at the raven haired who was seemingly going to pass out when he muttered something under his breath. I could not make out what it was, but his voice was shaking in fear. His eyebrows furrowed and he was starting to sweat, he must be having trouble sleeping.

I grabbed his hand as a sign of reassurance. I rubbed soothing circles on his back and patted him just like a loving father would do for a child...

Except for Jung kook, who never really received these treatments before.

Jung kook, you may not know but I worry for you.

Your mental health is at stake and yet you still behave like this and go around your day doing your own duties. What is going on inside of the head of yours?

" I need to get something from Hoseok, I will be back," I lied, I just wanted to get some fresh air and get some things straight, letting go of his cold hands when he tightened his grip on mine. I jumped and saw him awake, his eyes pleading me to stay beside him.

"Stay with me, I am scared." It was a mere whisper, but I caught what was he saying. I flopped down beside him, knowing that I would be wide awake from the hours of sleep I got from resting. "I cannot sleep without you staying with me."

"Yeah, of course..." I replied, holding his hand as he drifts in and out of consciousness. He wore a small smile before slipping into a deep sleep, it was then I realize after so many years of living alone, he finally gets a loving companion.

I let go of his hand and pulled the covers  over him.

"I guess we don't have the problem of having only one bed anymore, huh." I joked. I got a new set of clothes and changed quickly, frowning as I saw the bandaged soaked through with my own blood. I pressed my hand on it and saw the liquid seeping through once more, staining my skin. I ripped the dressing off and quickly found the medical box at one of the drawers. I flipped optn the covers and found the cleaning alcohol in the white box. I got the cotton swab and cleaned my wound.

I stifled a groan as the burning the flesh and I threw it onto the ground, biting the bottom of my lip to stop me from scream loudly. I paste the gauze onto my belly and wrapped the bandage around it and stood up, kicking the box under the bed.

"Freaking got stabbed." I grumbled, grabbing a black coat from my bag and threw it around me. I stuffed hands into my pockets and went out to the damned corridor, making my way to the cleared area. I stepped onto the sand and looked up, the cold wind soothed my nerves , the moon was hung up high in the sky and it shone down brightly.

I've always thought that the moon was beautiful and always calm me. " It is a nice night..."

"Not for Jung kook." Someone responded, walking towards me.

Why do people keep on popping in and out?

I turned around and saw Jinyoung beside me, his black hair was combed nicely and he was wearing a new set of clothing. "How I his mental state?"

"Not good," I replied bitterly, looking back at the moon again. "He was terrified of the dark a few moments ago... I am really worried."

"Seems like it, he don't seem stable anymore. Any constant violent outbursts yet?"

"Not violent, he did go on a task and he met Park Jimin. " I explained, turning to Jinyoung who was looking at me seriously. He had his arms crossed and he seemed to be thinking. " He cried when he came back from it. He did not seem to complete the task."

"Shit, this is bad. He is not suppose to mean Park Jimin here! This makes everything worse! He is not suppose to meet that guy! Oh gosh..." Jinyoung rambled on, his hands pulling at his black coloured hair.

"What do we do? We cannot leave this place until Wednesday, the teachers won't allow him to get out of here," I said, looking at Jinyoung.

"You two aren't leaving... I just need you to stay away from Jung kook." Jinyoung stated, looking at me. "You are a now target of his father's and it will cause an uproar if you die."

"No! I cannot leave him." I fought back, looking at him in total horror. " What are you saying?!"

"I am sorry, spend your last days with him till Wednesday. If not I will have tale this matter into my own hands. " Jinyoung said matter-of-factly. " Break connections with him, it is for your own good."

"But, Park Jinyoung ! I love him! You cannot just tell me to break ties with Jung kook!" I shouted, anger boiling inside of me. How dare Jinyoung say that, both of us just confessed to one another and confirmed each of our feelings to each other.

Jung kook just received the shock of his life and I am suppose to put him back together in one piece but now, I need to break him. He would be miserable but I have no other choice.

"Do you want him to die ?!" Jinyoung shouted back, his fists clenched. " I am trying to save the both of you! It is better that you don't get involve in these things!"

"This is a selfish act!" I protested, throwing my arms into the cold air.

"You and I don't have any choice! And you know it!" He yelled, pointing at me. "You know best and you should know what choices you are supposed to make! I am helping you here, Kim Taehyung."

I stopped talking. He was right, I do know that I have no other choice. I hung my head low, I heard Jinyoung walk away and I was left there, I was on the brink of tears and I was controlling myself to not shout into the empty air. I looked up into the sky, the moon was covered by the dark clouds, only some light peeked through the mass of clouds.

"What do I do ?!" I yelled at the sky and felt the temperature drop ten degrees. I knelt on the ground, letting my tears fall freely. I felt a small tingle at my fingertips, my head shot up and saw white snow falling overhead, coating my jacket and hands. Usually I would play around in the snow, feeling elated as winter was my favourite season and it came really early that year.

But then I just felt miserable and the snow just added to my misery. I force back another cry as I stood up and trudged back to the room where Jung kook was sleeping peacefully. A rhythmic breathing was seen and he snuggling into the warm covers. 

I just wanted to let everything out and tell him everything was okay for the both of us. That we could stay with each other forever . But it was no achievable, both of us were direct opposites and god forbid us staying together happily. God does not want peace. Well, there is no peace between us anymore.

It breaks my heart to know that I must leave Jung kook without telling him the reason why. It makes me feel selfish and I gritted my teeth as I went into the room, my hands shaking terribly.

I closed the door, brushing off the snow which landed on my black jacket, under low lighting, it looks like dust and grime. I am so sorry Jung kook, I love you but...

But...I have to end this non-existent fairytale between us. There is no happily ever after and there is no knight in shining armour.

I am so sorry.
