I Heart U

Chapter 15

Jungkook blinked a few times as he read the message a few times.  Seokjin’s father wanted to see him, talk to him.

What could it mean?

Was this bad?  Good?

Should he even go?  What if it was about what happened?

“Fuck…” he said softly to himself.  “What do I fucking do?”  Deep down, he really wanted to go to Seokjin.  He wanted to tell him that he loved him, that he was okay with this, that he forgave him.  But…what if this was serious?

He slowly stood up and ran a hand through his hair.  He’d go.  He’d go and talk to Seokjoon.  It…it would be good, right?  Yeah…yeah…

“Jimin, I’m…gonna head out,” Jungkook called to his older brother.  “I’ll be back soon.”

“Okay, but don’t take too long, I’m gonna make dinner,” Jimin called back to him.  Jungkook nodded a little and put on his shoes before grabbing his coat.  He slipped outside and let out a shaky breath.  It was just better to go see the man and get this over with.  Who knows…maybe it was something really important.  He started walking down the street, deciding against the bus or having Jimin drive him.  He needed to clear his head and make sure he didn’t mess things up with Seokjin more when he finally talked to him at some point.

“Just tell him you love him,” he told himself.  “Tell Seokjin that I, Jeon Jungkook, love him.  It’s not Taengie’s heart, it’s me.”  He looked ahead, pretending the doctor was in front of him.  “Kim Seokjin, I love you.  It’s not the heart that makes me say this, it’s me.  I’ve fallen in love with you, and I want to be with you.  Please be mine.”

Maybe he’d leave that last bit out.  He didn’t want to put it on too strongly.  Or maybe he did?

“Fuck, this is harder than I thought,” he said out loud.  “Maybe I’ll just…wing it.  Yeah, that’s always been a great thing to do.  Just like in the movies.  Spontaneous confession.  Confess that I-“  He stopped mid-sentence when he got to the mansion. Jungkook take a deep breath before entering, he enter.

“It’s okay, Mom! it’s a house as long dad is alright.,” Seokjin cooed.

“Yeah, we’ll be fine,” Namjoon said in agreement.  Seokjoon taking to the ambulance, unconscious with air mask while Jungkook cover in a warm blankethad joined late and was standing to the side awkwardly.  Taehyung stayed close to Seokjin.

“I’m so sorry this happened,” the blonde apologized.  “You’ve had such horrible luck…”

“But we’ll be okay,” Seokjin said firmly.  “We’ll get a new house, new things.  The important thing is that everyone is safe.”

“Excuse me.”

One of the firemen came out with a burned up gas can in his gloved hands.

“We think the fire was started with this.”

“Someone tried to do this on purpose?” Namjoon said in disbelief.

“Who the fuck would do something like that?” Taehyung snapped.  “Do your job and find them, arrest the sick bastard for trying to murder his father.”  He gestured to Seokjoon slightly.

“Sir, calm down.  We have to analyze everything first.”

The fireman walked off to hand off the evidence.

“Seokjin,” Jungkook started to say.

“You should go home,” Seokjin stated, avoiding the young male’s gaze.  “We’ll be fine.”  Jimin’s car pulled up before a very frantic Jimin jumped out of the car and ran over to hug Namjoon tightly.
