Betrayal

~ Hyerin's POV ~

After taking care of my business, I casually walked out of the restroom.

Suddenly, I gasped at the sight of Jimin leaning against the wall right outside of the restroom.

"Oh, hey Hyerin." He said with a devious grin plastered on his face, gradually approaching me with his hands stuffed in his pockets.

Nervously gulping, I attempted to walk past him, only to be stopped by Jimin forcefully trapping me in between his arms.

"Where do you think you're going?" He asked, causing me to slowly look at him in fear.

"G-Get away from me..." I reluctantly muttered, my heart beat increasing from how close he was to me.

"Not until you tell me why you're avoiding me." Jimin stated.

Slowly looking up at him, my heart shattered as I saw him looking at me with great pain and fear visible in his eyes.

Suddenly, Jimin tightly embraced me in his arms and attacked me with a hug, causing me to completely freeze in my position.

"Please, please don't avoid me... I can't take it anymore..." He grievously muttered, the anguish in his voice breaking my heart even more.

I've never seen this side of him.

The fact that I had pushed him so far to the point that he wasn't able to endure his pain hurt me so much.

"I-I'm so sorry..." I muttered in utter regret, apologizing for the great torment I had caused him.

Letting out a deep sigh, Jimin gradually pulled away from me.

"Why did you avoid me?" He asked, his eyes pleading me to tell him the truth.

Although I hesitated at first, I knew I couldn't bear to hide it from him anymore.

"M-Mr. Kim ordered me to stay away from you and Jungkook since I was being a distraction to you guys.." I confessed.

Upon hearing this, Jimin's eyes immediately furrowed as his eyes burned with great enmity.

"That bastard." He furiously muttered, tightly clenching his fists as he gritted his teeth.

"Please don't get mad at him Jimin. He only did it for the sake of you two." I calmly assured as I warmly smiled at him.

Attempting to calm his anger, he took a deep breathe, and let it out.

"At least you're talking to me again." He said in relief, a genuine smile finally appearing on his face.

"Wanna take a break?" Jimin suddenly asked, probably wanting to talk about all that happened throughout this entire week that we haven't spoken about.

I happily nodded in agreement.

~ On The Rooftop ~

"A-Are you sure we're allowed to be here?" I anxiously asked Jimin as we reached the rooftop of the building.

"Don't worry, I do this all the time." Jimin assured, stuffing his hands in his pockets as he looked up at the azure sky.

I walked over and stood next to him, a warm smile appearing on my face as the cooling breeze brushed against my skin.

"Ah, I remember when we used to sneak out of class together and just hangout at the rooftop of our high school." I said, letting out a chuckle as I remembered the indelible memory I shared with him.

"Hyerin, do you remember what I said to you when I broke up with you?" Jimin suddenly asked.

I froze from his unexpected question, nervously gulping as I wondered why he was even bringing it up.

How could I possibly forget?

"I-I've lost my feelings for you."

His words were tattooed onto my heart, haunting me throughout all these years.

"Y-Yeah?" I reluctantly answered.

He stayed silent for a while, suddenly letting out a sigh as he looked at me.

"To be completely honest with you, I only said that so you would hate me, making it easier for you move on from me. I couldn't bear to imagine you waiting for me even after we graduated, just suffering and enduring the pain of not being able to see each other." Jimin admitted as he hung his head low, letting a weak laugh escape his mouth.

"I actually wasn't expecting myself to fall in love with you all over again, making me feel so fucking stupid and regret the words I said to you."

I widened my eyes as my cheeks immediately flared up from his sudden confession, making me doubt my ears if I had heard him wrong.

Jimin... loves... me?

"And the thing is, you used to be mine. I used to have you in my arms. I used to own your heart, and now I've lost it." He continued as he sorely clenched his fists.

"I made a mistake, and now I'm living with the consequences. I regret it, I really do. And I'm sorry." Jimin grievously muttered as he looked at me, giving me a weak, forced smile.

Although my heart was beating completely out of control, and I literally felt like I was going to faint, I knew I had to tell him how I felt.

"J-Jimin, I really don't want to betray Jiyeon but-"

"Ah, I get it. It's okay, you don't have to tell me." Jimin said as he cut me off, probably thinking I was going to reject him or something.

I grumpily pouted at him as I lightly him him on his chest.

"Let me finish you idiot." I said, causing him to look at me in confusion.

"Although I really don't want to betray my best friend, I just cant lie to my feelings Jimin." I said, a warm smile gradually forming on my face.

Jimin's eyes widened as he looked at me with his cheeks growing extremely red.

"A-Are you saying-"

But before he could speak up, I quickly tiptoed and attacked him with a quick peck on his lips.

"Yes, I'm saying I love you too Park Jimin." I shyly confessed as I grinned at him, who was staring at me in utter shock with his face completely flushed.

Jimin suddenly placed his forehead onto mine, his signature grin gradually creeping onto his face.

"I bet I'm a better kisser than you."

I couldn't help but smile at his competitiveness.

Slowly bringing my hands up to his face, I gently cupped his face with the palm of my hands.

"Then prove it."

With that, Jimin and I clashed our lips against each other.

I gradually melted into the loving kiss we shared, our lips moving in sync as our hearts burned with the great passion and adoration we felt towards each other.

I know, this was wrong.

I know, I was betraying my best friend.

I know, I was being a terrible friend.

But I'm sorry Jiyeon,

I'm breaking our promise.
