__________

"Let's break up..," I said with my shivering voice.

"Are you sure you want that, Seoyeon?"

I kept silent. I didn't make it to say yes, because deep inside, I didn't want to. I didn't want us to break up. I didn't want to leave Taehyung. I didn't want our love to be over, but I can't bear to see Jungkook suffer like this.

"I'll respect your decision, Seoyeon," Taehyung suddenly said, catching me off-guard as I didn't expect that answer. "Whatever your decision may be, I'll support it." Taehyung flashed a smile although his eyes were showing hint of sadness.

"Thank you, Taehyung," I said. I felt tears forming in my eyes, but I didn't want him to see them. I clenched my fists and bit my lower lip, trying to not burst out into tears. "Goodbye." I quickly entered my house and left Taehyung behind. I went up the stairs and locked myself in my room.

What have I done...

**

I knocked nervously, waiting for someone to open the door. Finally, Jungkook's mom opened up for me and greeted me with a smile.

"I'm glad you are here, Seoyeon," his mom said and let me in. "Jungkook is upstairs, in his room. I nodded and walked upstairs. I knocked on his door and Jungkook asked who it was.

"It's me, Seoyeon," I said and Jungkook immediately opened the door for me. I entered his room. "How are you?," I asked.

"Better," he answered shortly.

"Okay then," I said, putting my bag down. I didn't realize that it was open and a few books and sheets fell to the ground.

"Ahh, sorry, Jungkook," I apologized and crouched down to pick them up. Jungkook did the same, helping me, but he suddenly stopped his movements and stared blankly at a piece of paper.

"What's wrong?," I asked until I noticed what he was looking at. I quickly snatched the paper away from him and put it into my bag. Unfortunately, he already saw it was the lyrics for 'Hold me tight'

"Seoyeon..," he began speaking. I kept silent. "Is it true that you on Taehyung broke up because of me?," he suddenly said.

It took me a while before I could answer to his question. I didn't expect him to ask that. "We did break up... but it's not because of you," I lied. I didn't want Jungkook to blame himself for Taehyung and my break-up. I didn't want him to feel guilty for something he can't do nothing about. "How did you know?," I then asked, my voice leading with curiosity.

"Jiyoon told me..," he confessed and I smiled lightly.

"Don't worry about it, Jungkook." Awkward silence took over us and I tried to change the topic. "Oh by the way, are you hungry or something? Because I am. I'm starving. Let's go out and eat somethi-"

"Seoyeon," Jungkook interrupted me. His voice sounded serious. Like it never did before. Usually his voice is... playful... but it is not today. "Go back to Taehyung," he said, his voice leading with sadness.

"Jungkook...I-"

"I'll be fine. I promise. I won't skip any meals and get enough sleep. I don't want to be the reason you're unhappy. I want you to be happy, even if it''s not with me. I once told you, didn't I? As long as you're happy, i am too," he confessed, smiling faintly at me.

"Jungkook... I'm sorry..."

"You don't have to be," he said. "Weren't you the one who always used to say that one can't control his feelings and doesn't choose with whom to fall in love with? It's the same with you. It wasn't your choice to fall in love with Taehyung, neither was it mine to fall in love with you." He suddenly held out his pinky in front of me. "Promise me you'll be happy, Seoyeon."

Tears were filling the corner of my eyes. "I promise..," I said before we both brought our pinkies together.

"Jungkook, do you think he'll forgive me?," I asked him. I was worried. What if Taehyung won't forgive me? I dumped him after all.

Jungkook let out a chuckle. "Of course he will. He loves you after all. Now go to him. I know you want to see him right now."

I smiled at Jungkook. "Thank you," was the last thing I said before I took my bag and left Jungkook's room. I told his parents that Jungkook is fine and headed for the dorm. I didn't realize I ran until the air brushed harshly against my face.

Being the clumsy me, I tripped a few times, but it didn't prevent me from going faster. Finally, as I reached the dorm, panting hard, I walked toward the entrance. Before I rang the bell, I tried to find my breath again. After calming down, I eventually rang the bell. It took a while before Hoseok opened up for me.

"Oh, hiya, Seoyeon. What's up?," he asked enthusiastically.

"Hey, Hoseok. Is Taehyung here?" I peeked inside.

He wrinkled his brow. "Well, uhh, he's behind you?"

"Huh?" I turned around and immediately flinched after seeing Taehyung standing behind me. "Where did you come from?," I asked shocked.

"You two didn't come together?," Hoseok wanted to know and I shook my head.

"Seoyeon..." I flinched as I suddenly heard his deep voice behind me. I haven't heard it in a long time... "What are you doing here?," he wondered.

"Uhh... c-can we talk?," I asked him. He looked surprised seeing me.

"Sure," he said. "Let's go inside." The two of us walked to his room. Hoseok closed the door again, wondering what's happening.

Taehyung opened the door for me and I quickly entered his room and sat down on his bed.

"What did you want to talk about?"

"Well..," I struggled, not knowing how to start, but it didn't take me long to come up with something. I cleared my throat and took a deep breath before I started to sing.

"I can only see you
I can only see you alone
Look, I'm fair with everyone else but you
Now I can't live a day without you, please"

My voice was unstable because I was very nervous, but I kept on singing while watching Taehyung's reaction. His lips were parted in surprise.

"Hold me tight, hug me
Can you trust me,
can you trust me
can you trust me
Pull me in tight
Hold me tight, hug me
Can you trust me, can you trust me
Please, please, please pull me in and hug me"

Before I realized it, Taehyung started to sing with me and the two of us harmonized throughout the song, making me feel goosebumps all over me. His deep voice contrasted well with mine. We never diverted our eyes from each other while singing.

"You still shine
You're like a scented flower
Now trust me, hold me once again
So I can feel you, hold me
Without you, I can't breathe
I'm nothing without you
Open my closed heart, drench my heart
So I can feel you, hold me."

It was silent after we finished.

"Taehyung, I-...," I started, but he cut me off with wrapping his arms around me and hugging me tightly. "...love you," I whispered.

"I missed you, Seoyeon," he said. "I love you."
