Keep Trying

Past...

"Do you think it's a good thing letting Hoseok move in with you," Seokjin asked Jimin?

Jimin smiled at Seokjin and raised his drink to his lips. Taehyung rolled his eyes at his friend who he knew found joy in having more males around him than he should. Seokjin still sat confused at Jimin's moments.

"I think it's a great idea. Firstly we need a man around the house."

Taehyung snorted, "What about Kookie? He not man enough."

"Correction: child is better suit for him," Jimin answered Taehyung back with making Seokjin shake his head in disbelief.

"Don't talk shit about him when he's not here to defend himself."

Jimin waved his hand at Seokjin, dismissing his words as he takes the drink back up to his lips.

"Speaking of man, how's Yoongi, Seokjin," Jimin asked with a smirk that had Seokjin on edge.

"His well being isn't of your concern."

Taehyung's laughter of the situation muted as he felt Seokjin's anger rising up. He got up and grabbed a laughing Jimin from his seat and dragged him into the kitchen away from their other friend.

"Don't think you're the only one around the house waiting on a ''man' to come around. You probably ain't the only one checking for new eye candy," Seokjin's words never stuck to Jimin.

Jimin hated Seokjin with a passion anyways...

Present...

"So Im going to leave and hopefully you won't be so bratty then."

Jungkook gave a confused look at his boyfriend. Since the start of their relationship, Jungkook felt like he gave his all and Jimin gave his two cents when ever he felt as if he needed to reassure Jungkook that he still mattered. He latched to Jimin like anyone younger male would to a senior. He looked up to Jimin, he carried himself with so much pride and made everyone know he was what the world meant by 'being determining to strive for excellence'. He still had the natural flaws, but Jungkook didn't care about that cause everyone got them in things. Shit he wasn't looking for perfect no way. Soon that admire he had turned to love when he started to hang with him.

He let his love for Jimin decided his future, moving in with him when high school was over(being kicked out made it easier to move) and letting the male do any and everything to him that he could, even if his parents hated Jimin faithfully.

But recently, things went south for the both of their relationship.

"Where are you going?"

"To Taehyung obviously," Jimin said getting himself his jacket as he walked to the mirror of their shared room. He was checking himself and smiling to himself something he had been doing for the past week and it was starting to irritate Jungkook.

"So you dressing up for Taehyung now?"

Jimin stopped his movement and slowly turned his head to stare at his boyfriend.

"No, why, you jealous?"

"Nawl, I'm just trying to figure out why my boyfriend has been leaving everyday this week and dressing up for his best friend but not his boyfriend?"

Jimin rolled his eyes, "I'm leaving. Feed the pet and make sure you make food for Hoseok. I'll be back then."

His body wouldn't move to grab the boy, his legs didn't move to get up and his mouth said closed and let him walk. His mind wanted him to walk.

So he let him, the door closed up and stayed there till the door closed shut and locked.

3 Hour later...

"Kookie!"

Jungkook woke up quickly thinking something was wrong. His eyes adjusted to the light around him, blinking to see clearly. He eyes looked straight into Hoseok's who was kneeling down beside his head.

Jungkook sat up and stretched his muscles as Hoseok sat back on his knees and let him do him.

"What time is it?"

"10 o clock."

Jungkook stood up quickly and looked through different doors of the house. Freaking out while Hoseok followed right behind him trying to understand what was going on.

"What are looking for!?!"

Jungkook ignored him, going up the stairs looking into him and his boyfriend's shared room and not seeing him there.

"Where's Jimin?"

Hoseok stopped and watched the boy turned to stare at Hoseok waiting on an answer.

"Where-"

"Yes where is he?"

Hoseok gave a look, "I didn't know I was his keeper. I don't know where he's at. Maybe with his friends."

Jungkook grabbed his phone from his pocket and started to dial his boyfriend's number.

"Hello?"

Jungkook gave a look to the phone, not understanding why the boy sound tired.

"Jimin, where are you?"

"Where am I? -Ah fuvk- Kookie what do you want?"

Jungkook's mind was piecing together why he would sound like that and what he was doing but he bypassed multiple reason as to why it could be like that.

"Where are you," he asked in a serious tone.

"At Tae-Taehyung house. Oh shit, Namjoon~ ."

"WHAT THE FUCK ARE YOU DOING?"

Dead silence.

Jimin had hung up on him leaving him standing there, red and pissed.

Hoseok watched and shook his head to the boy, feeling bad for him even if he couldn't hear the conversation at all.

"Jungkook..."

He watched the boy's hand raise to stop his words. He didn't want to hear anyone speak. He didn't trust his response at all.

He didn't expect Hoseok to grab his hand and yank him close to him. Jungkook felt his face push into Hoseok's shoulder and arms wrap around his body.

He felt clarity

He felt secure for some reason.

And for the first time in a long time, he felt the care that he wished Jimin would have given to him.

"Don't shut me out. I told you when I moved in that I wouldn't leave your side and I ain't gonna start now."

Jungkook let his words sink in and sink deep. The hurt that he wanted to push away and the thoughts of Jimin doing wrong against him pushed the tears to fall from his eyes.

"Why Hoseok? I left everything for him, why would he do me like this?"

And for the first time, Hoseok didn't have the answers to give Jungkook.

"Let's not think the worse."

He let the boy cry on him that whole night, knowing that it wasn't the first or the last time Jimin wouldn't come home at night.
