Chapter 7: It Hurts Us Both

"Jungkook?"

Taehyung was just about to take a quick shower when he heard the doorbell rings like crazy. Annoyed with that, he walks toward the door just to find Jungkook standing in front of his door, drenched.

"What the hell happened to you dude!?"

Jungkook said nothing but walks inside. Taehyung stares in horror at Jungkook's state. Well, one, he never saw Jungkook in this state before. Drenched in rain, bloody fist, blood-shot eyes, everything about Jungkook is a total mess right now. And two, he's certainly didn't want Jungkook to roam around his house with his wet body, especially not on his newly bought couch!

Taehyung throws his towel towards Jungkook and let him dry himself with that. Surprisingly, Jungkook knelt down on the floor and starts to cry, making Taehyung shocked in panic. Never, not even once he had seen Jungkook like this.

"Jungkook, what happened?"

Jungkook said nothing. He just lets his tears fall and he keeps on punching the floor with both of his fist. He's losing control and Taehyung knows it. Taehyung said nothing, he just sit in front of Jungkook. Letting him released all his build-up emotions.

Once Jungkook calms himself down, Taehyung gives him a set of cloth and some hot chocolate. He sits down next to Jungkook, waiting for him to say something.

"..................... I divorced him"

Taehyung's eyes widen when he heard that. He opens and closed his mouth, trying to say something but he didn't know what to say. Like, is Jungkook gone crazy? He loves Jimin too much. Too freaking much.

"He cheated on me" Jungkook lowers his head. He clenched his fist again. Still hurts when that words comes from his mouth.

"................. Kook. Are you sure? We know Jimin. He wouldn't--"

"There's pictures of them on bed. Naked."

"............ with whom? Are you sure?"

"HOW CAN I NOT BE SURE TAE!? THE MAN THAT I MARRIED, THE MAN THAT I WISH TO SPEND ALL MY LIFE WITH! THE LOVE OF MY LIFE, CHEATED ON ME WITH HIS BEST FRIEND, LEE TAEMIN!!" Jungkook shouts in frustrations. How could he be wrong? He knows exactly how his husband looks like. He knows exactly, every inch of Jimin's perfect body. How he wish his eyes deceived him. He tried. He tried to take a better look at the picture, trying to find a proof that that was not his Jimin. But he couldn't. That's is his husband with someone else wrapping his filthy hands around his Jimin.

Taehyung couldn't say anything. Jungkook never lies. Seeing Jungkook in this state is a proof that Jungkook said the truth. Taehyung clenched his fist. He didn't know that Jimin would do such a thing. He's the one who introduced Jimin to Jungkook. Now, he regrets that. He regrets every bits of it.

-----------------

Jimin knocks on the door repeatedly. He has nowhere to go. The only person that he can leans on right now is min Yoongi, his best friend from college. The only person, the last person that anyone could think of for him to stay with.

"Jimin? Wh—what are you doing here in the middle of the night?" Yoongi is completely shocked seeing his best friend, carrying a bag in his hand with dried tears stained on his cheeks.

"Babe, who's there?"

Yoongi turns his head towards the voice but immediately turns his gaze on Jimin again.

"hyung.... I-I need help. Please" Jimin's tears rolls down his cheeks again making Yoongi flustered. He steps aside, gesturing Jimin to come inside before taking his bag from his hand. The only thing that Yoongi didn't take away is the picture, securely held on his chest with his tiny hand.

Jin, Yoongi's boyfriend who's now in the middle of flipping the channel on the tv froze when he sees a man standing right in middle of the hallway. He glances at Yoongi asking for explanations because the last thing that he wanted to hear tonight is Yoongi having an affair with this boy and maybe even worse, making him pregnant.

"Babe, this is Jimin, my best friend that I've told you about and Jimin, this is my boyfriend, Jin."

"Ummm... sorry for disturbing you, but I really need a place to stay for tonight. I'm sorry for barging in like this."

Jin somehow feels sympathy at the man in front of him. He didn't know why but the boy's gaze is too sad, too lost in his eyes. He smiles towards Jimin gesturing him to take a sit next to him.

"Jimin ah, you know you're always welcome here. But please tell me what happened" Jin said, obviously not letting someone he didn't even know crashing, without knowing the reasons why.

Jimin bites his lips worriedly. He didn't want to tell them about this. Not yet. He knows Yoongi loves Jungkook. Sure Yoongi is protective over Jimin but Jungkook is his favorite among all of them. He wasn't ready to tell him about this, worried that Yoongi would kick him out. But either way, he need to tell him.

"Hyung, I—Jungkook and i.... we've divorced" Jimin couldn't hold on any longer. He just let his tears fall free on his cheeks. His hands still tightly holding the picture on his chest.

"It's okay. Breathe Jimin, breathe." Yoongi pulls Jimin into a hug. He's hurt seeing his best friend like this. Jin couldn't look at Jimin right now, his heart is aching so badly. Not because of he's jealous of Yoongi hugging Jimin but because of how hurtful Jimin looks right now. Without realizing it, Jin also shedding his own tears.

"It's okay, you got me. You got us. Don't worry. Stay as long as you want." Yoongi looks at Jin right after he said that, pleading for Jin to say yes. And of course, Jin nods his head. He wouldn't even let Jimin wanders around alone in this state.
