Honestly, (Taekook)

"No. I don't like him," was Jungkook's answer.

They all stared at Taehyung.Then they all burst into laughter.

"Wel, you must be really drunk," Jimin said, wiping a tear.

Jungkook stayed calm. Taehyung felt the tension rising in his body, slowly going down. They started to talk about other things such as girls, cars and jokes that Jungkook didn't understand. Taehyung was watching him but when their eyes met, he would immediately gaze away. There was a strange atmosphere in the room. Some were laughing. Some were down. Some were just happy and some wanted to run away just like Jungkook right now. When Taehyung's friend asked him to come, he wanted to decline but the reason why he accepted to come, is still unknown. He knows that if it was for someone else, he wouldn't go but when it come to Taehyung, he always find himself being drawn to him, to the point of hurting himself. Right now, it was hurting to see Taehyung, in front him, ignoring him and laughing like there is no tomorrow.

Taehyung was the type of person to appear as cool and happy in front of his friends, the type to never lose. Jungkook could clearly see that since that day he lied to Jimin, saying he confessed when he didn't. That night, Jungkook couldn't sleep, unable to understand why Taehyung would tell such a lie. He decided to shrug off that idea and forget about him. But, here he is today, casually drinking with Taehyung's friends.

It was three in the morning. Everyone was feeling sleepy. Except for Taehyung, Suga and Jungkook. The others already left and Namjoon told the rest to sleepover since they live far. Suga followed Namjoon in bedroom, grabbing the half empty vodka bottle and two glasses. Jungkook was left all alone, in the living room, with Taehyung lazily sitting on the couch. Taehyung stared emptily at the wall before suddenly sighing heavily.

"I'll go first," he declared as he walked towards a room.

Jungkook nodded and stood there, not knowing what to do. Taehyung stood next to the room's door and opened it widely. He stared at Jungkook and showed him the way by moving his head right. Jungkook took slow step before reaching the entrance of the room. Taehyung entered in and closed the door behind Jungkook. There was a double sized bed. The younger leaned his back on the wall, trying to process the situation. Taehyung jumped on the bed, his head softly crushing on the pillow. On the hand, Jungkook sat carefully on the bed, far from Taehyung. Silence haunted the place for a long moment. It's the first time that they stay in the same place for a long time together. Both sensed some tensions rising inside their body but their expressions didn't show any feelings.

"Is it true ?" Taehyung suddenly asked.

"What ?"

"That you don't like me."

Jungkook remained silent. However, Jungkook's silence started to irritate Taehyung. It was like he was in presence of a kid. He is clearly aware of Jungkook's feelings towards him but the other acted like there was nothing between them. How can Jungkook say that he don't like him? If it wasn't the case why he would approach him. It was getting so confusing in Taehyung's head. Taehyung wanted to be nice and leave him alone but Jungkook was acting in a way that makes him want to hurt him more. His silence, his stares and his sudden hate for Taehyung, were what Taehyung wanted to crush.

"It is it's true. I don't like you at all."

Taehyung felt a huge anger, it was as if someone stepped on his pride. He suddenly grabbed Jungkook by his shoulders and pushed him on the bed, climbing on top of him. Taehyung's eyes were filled with anger and pain at the same time. He approached Jungkook's lips but the boy stopped him. Taehyung looked straight into Jungkook's eyes. He looked scary at that moment. The darkness in his eyes was stronger than ever. He moved away. What just happened ? he asked to himself. Jungkook sat on the bed and passed a hand through his hair. He looked so pissed off, he was about to say something but suddenly he had a strong headache, making him fall on the bed. He eventually drifted off to sleep.

The sun rose. Jungkook opened his eyes slowly. It was still too bright. He blinked and stared at the ceiling. He felt dizzy and disgusted. The back of his head was hurting him and his all body was in pain. The room was messy and clothes were laying on the floor. It was his clothes. He couldn't remember a single thing except the fact that he was asked out by Taehyung's friends. Slowly, he remembers the cup of alcohol he drank last night. He remembers the face of Taehyung close to his and his lips trying to reach his lips. The memories were back and organized. Jungkook looked at his right and there was Taehyung sleeping. Jungkook's head was still hurting him so he didn't take the time to think and grabbed his clothes, got dressed and went out of the room. It was empty. Everyone was sleeping. Jungkook checked the time and it was past 12'pm. It was Saturday so he didn't have work, but he couldn't stay here. It stinks alcohol and men hormones. He left without making a sound.

As soon as he came back home, Jungkook lay down on his bed. His mind was full of thoughts. He was experiencing something new. The taste of alcohol, talks about sex with guys, lust and unknown painful feelings. He realized how much he changed since he met Taehyung. It was not something to be proud of. That night, when Taehyung was about to kiss him, he actually wanted to do so but he felt like that Taehyung's aim was different from his. He hoped for Taehyung to touch him with his heart. If he let Taehyung do as he wishes, he would have become an easy prey for him and he would lose the future he dreamed of. Jungkook just want an ordinary peaceful like but Taehyung entering his life will only create chaos.

Suddenly, his phone rang. It was Shin.

"Man I got 2 tickets for Daegu , will you come ?"

"Really ? When ? "

"The first week of holidays, I'll bring it to your place tomorrow."

"Alright. See ya. "

Jungkook felt excited about going on a trip with his best friend. He would finally able to forget everything related to Taehyung and spend some good time, far from this place.
