28 Days | Jungkook ✔

Fault

Taehyung turns around and we make eye contact. I notice the fear in his eyes for being caught- but not the regret. His hair was messily tousled, his lips bright red, but he had this radiant glow. He clearly didn't regret the kiss at all.

He clearly didn't regret cheating on me.

     Jimin finally opened his eyes and saw me too.

      "Y/n," Taehyung called my name, but I slammed the door and ran before I could hear him continue.

Tears streamed down my face. All I could see was the blurry vision of the empty hallway with multiple doors. All I could hear was the cracking sound of my heart. All I could feel was this cold heaviness in my body. And all I could think about was...

How happy Taehyung looked kissing Jimin. How his face had this brilliant radiance after kissing him, that I've never seen him had with me. That passion they had holding each other was something I could only dream of. I really didn't mean anything to him.

       I continued running down the hallway until I bumped my head into a hard figure.

"Ow," I cried, rubbing my head. Great now not just my heart was hurting.

I heard Jungkook's voice. "Y/n, I've been looking for you everywhere-wait are you alright?" He ruffled my hair.

"Yes, I'm fine." I sniffled.

Jungkook nodded. "Okay, good. For a second there, I thought-"

"You silly goose! Look at how messed up my makeup is, my mascara running down my cheeks! And now on top of that, my head hurts from hitting against your body! Of course I'm not fine, how could you think that? Are you that stupid?" I go off at him, senselessly.

Jungkook raises his hands, his palms facing towards me. "Sorry. This is clearly my fault."

       "No. It's not your fault."  I let out a deep breath and sit down on a bench. He plops down beside me.

       "It's my fault for trusting people." A pathetic tear fell onto my cheek. Hesitantly, Jungkook wipes it away with his finger.

        "Do you want to talk about it?"

I shake my head. "No, tonight was supposed to be your special night. I can't believe you were holding in so many secrets, and you finally let it out. Please tell me what happened after I was escorted out-"

      "But not just my night is important. Yours is too. Your existence is important, and so are your problems," Jungkook tells me.

"I just don't want to talk about myself... I don't want to be a burden," I sigh.

"You barely do talk about yourself. I've told you so much, and yet you barely tell about your secrets. Allowing me to know about what's going on in your mind...it would be a privilege."

I smiled cheekily. "I'm undeserving to be in your presence, Jungkook. You're too sweet."

     Jungkook puts his hand on my shoulder. "That's exactly how I feel about you."

     I'm entranced by his gaze for a few seconds and abruptly look away. "Well, I guess I should start out with the terrible truth. Taehyung cheated on me."

      "Your fake boyfriend?" Jungkook raised his eyebrow.

       I groan and put my hand through my hair. "It's complicated. First, we pretended to date for awhile. Then, we both confessed to each other and decided we would continue seeing each other after that."
