Chapter sixteen ~ jealous

I'll probably post another chapter today~

    Jimin woke up to the sound of alarm at 7:30. As Taehyung had guessed, he didn’t remember anything about waking up an hour ago. Jimin turned to his boyfriend and that he was all dressed up. His mind started racing, why would Tae wake up to dress during the night? Where would he need to go? He hated himself for being so gullible and falling in love so quickly. What was he doing, talking and helping the boy who had too many issues anyways? Maybe Yoongi was right, he didn’t know why he had kept pushing even though he knew he would get hurt in the end. He also hated himself for acting too desperate the day before, jumping on the last chance he had with the boy who so obviously didn’t like Jimin as Jimin did him. He hated himself for not being mad at Taehyung.

    He looked at his boyfriend, he was sleeping so peacefully. He stopped thinking. He remembered tuesday night, the night he first slept with Tae, the night of their first kiss. He remembered looking at him in the morning and how a boy with that many problems could sleep so much like a baby. Now, he was wondering how he could still want to wake him up by kissing him, this badly. Instead, though, he stood up and started getting dressed for school.

    Taehyung woke up when Jimin sat back on the bed to put his socks on. His first thought was to hug him from his back but he held himself, remembering what he did.

    “Good morning.”   

    “Mornin” Jimin mumbled back, not bothering to look at him.

    “You slept well?” Taehyung took a mental note to search “good conversation openers while talking to your boyfriend that hates you” in google whenever he had the chance.

    “Better than you, it seems.” Jimin looked at Taehyung, a cold glare from head to toe, indicating that he had noticed Taehyung was dressed and he wanted to know why. Tae could see in Jimin’s eyes that he was more terrified than mad. Jimin was scared of his answer, which made him feel worse. He had managed to wreck his trust completely and it would take a long time to build it back up.

    “I got up in the morning to talk to my parents about… something urgent. I didn’t want to wake you up so I got dressed and went outside.”

    “Oh.” Jimin’s face lit up for a second before he became serious again. He was really relieved to hear that Taehyung didn’t sneak into Jungkook’s room at the middle of the night. He trusted Tae to tell the truth about it. Taehyung noticed the joy in Jimin’s face for a short second, he involuntarily smiled and continued.

    “I didn’t do anything stupid.”

    “Again.” Jimin added, which made Tae’s face fall again.

    “Come on Jiminie-”

    “Jimin.”

    “Come on Jimin, let’s just go downstairs.”

    Jimin didn’t protest to that. They went to the living room and ate their toasts while waiting for Jungkook. After five minutes, Taehyung mumbled to himself.

    “Where is this boy?! I should go check on him.” but before he even could stand up he was pushed back down.

    “I’ll go, you don’t have to bother getting up.”

    “Jungkookie? Are you awake?” Jimin knocked on the door but there wasn’t an answer. “I’m coming in!” Jimin opened the door, hoping Jungkook didn’t like to sleep completely naked.

    He was surprised to see Jungkook sitting on the edge of the bed, his feet few inches off the ground. He was covering his face with his hands and his body was shaking. He didn’t seem like he noticed Jimin.
