"... Jimin, hey don't be upset..."
Hoseok stood in front of the couple, his eyes looking down at his flinching hands. "I know you can get a bad temper at moments like these, but I promise you it's okay if you don't want to be my friend anymore..."
Jimin sighs, crossing his arms over his chest. "I don't have a lot of time for this, so please just get this done with. What is this meeting all about?"
Yoongi stands by Jimin's side, reassuring him by putting one hand on his shoulder. "Let him explain..."
"I'm going to step outside to look for Jungkook," Yoongi says, "I'll be back, okay? He needs to be here."
Jimin nods, pecking his cheek. Yoongi pats his back before turning away to leave.
"W-Wait, Yoongi!" Hoseok looks up, "... I cant explain it alone-" He watches the door close shut, and his eyes are back on Jimin.
Jimin tilts his head, his jaw clenching slightly. "... This sounds bad, What's wrong?"
"... You hurt both Yoongi and Jungkook," Hoseok quietly says, "... I need you to stop hurting both of them..."
"You're awfully quiet," Jimin runs his fingers through his hair, "You're usually loud, so just say it loud and clear..."
"I need you to be better as a friend and a boyfriend," Hoseok sighs, "... I love Yoongi, and I need someone to take care of him, but you're not taking responsibility-"
"... Love?" Jimin says before covering his mouth to snicker a laugh, "... Hoseok, you're silly. I'm doing fairly well with Yoongi, my parents like him too. So, what's the problem?"
"He's an adult, he can take care of himself," Jimin shrugs his shoulders, "Hoseok you're just too timid sometimes. Jungkook's moved on, I've moved on. Yoongi's doing perfectly fine."
"Maybe the only problem here is you, Hoseok."
Jimin shoves his hands in his pockets. "My love makes Yoongi happy. All you do is baby him around, that's not love. Jungkook was just in his imagination when we dated. Both you and Jungkook get choked up on romance, it's funny."
"Waiting for someone to take your virginity is useless too," Jimin hums, pitting his hand on Hoseok's shoulder, "Waiting for a first love is a waste of time. You'll learn about love when you go out, get drunk, and if a miracle happens, wake up next to a stranger."
Hoseok gulps. "I love Yoongi-"
"No you don't."
Hoseok grabs his shoulders, gripping them tightly. "Jimin, I-I love Yoongi. I can be the one there for him, I sweat Jimin. I just, I want him to have better-"
He chokes on his words when he feels a strong bang to his stomach, it felt like a boulder hitting his stomach. His hand trembles on Jimin's shoulder as his other holds his reddening abdomen, choking up a cough from the sudden pain.
Jimin's knuckles were white and his hand begins to redden as he retracts his fist from Hoseok's stomach. He places a hand on Hoseok's swollen tattooed arm, squeezing tightly on the irritate skin before ripping Hoseok's hand off of his own shoulder.
Hoseok stumbles back, his tears welling up from the sudden pain in his arm and stomach. "... I-It's okay, I'm sorry alright?" He stammers, with teary eyes.
He manages to place a trembling smile on his lips, crinkling his eyes as tears streamed down his cheeks. "... All I ask of you, is to be a better person for both of them. They loved you, don't let that go to waste," he wipes his cheeks furiously.
Jimin sighs, shaking his head. "You really don't get anything, do you?"
Hoseok takes a deep breath, and stands straight when he hears the door open, he puts his hand over his stomach. Jimin shoves his reddening hand in his pocket and with a gentle smile, he pecks Yoongi's cheek once again.
Hoseok smiles, his cheeks dry but red. "We fixed things, he said it's okay..." The smile on his lips covers the lies on his tongue.
Yoongi sighs softly, and nods. "... Jungkook's coming right now, we need to talk all together."
"Baby," Jimin grabs Yoongi's arm, "Let's go get a couple of drinks just in case our talk is longer than expected. Hoseok can just stay here..."
Yoongi looks at Hoseok, who continues to smile, before nodding and leaving with Jimin. "... We'll be back soon..."
Hoseok waits for the door to lock once it closes before collapsing into the living room floor from the immense , curling up into a ball as he grips his pain aching stomach. He lets out groans, gripping the fabric of his hoodie till his knuckles turn white.
He could hear the clock ticking, and his stomach churning. His throat burned, and he could feel his lunch crawl up his throat. He covers his mouth with his other hand, and the burning got worse.
He hears the door click open again, Yoongi must of left it unlocked. Before he could get up, exhaustion got to him faster. He swallows down, before he see's footsteps step inside and close his eyes.
He laid there, curled up in a ball, alone.
Jungkook stepped inside, Taehyung in hand. "... Sorry for dragging you here, I don't think I could confront all of them alone. Since the party..."
Taehyung sighs, squeezing his hand in reassurance. "... It's alright. I don't think anyone is home. This is Hoseok's apartment right?"
Taehyung and Jungkook stop when they see Hoseok curled on the floor, his cheeks damp again.
"... What happened?"
"... Taehyung, h-help him up!"
Jungkook grabs his phone and tries to look for Yoongi's contact, scrolling through all he could find was Jimin's. "S-Shit."
Taehyung gently sits up Hoseok, moving his hair away from his closed eyes, he rests him back on the coffee table. He looks back at Jungkook, "... Why is he all alone?"
