he can't stop crying.

his lashes are sodden, heavy with tears that clot at his midnight eyes.

his wails rip at the others skins, slashing at their stomachs as the young boy clutches hopelessly at the limp figure that is draped white linen.

they can't do anything.

whether they like it or not.

and that sense of powerlessness annoyed them. irked them to the highest sense of hate.

"get away from him."

strong hands rip the crying boy from the frail body, the rough contact of the floor beneath his back tingling his skin in a heated mess of silent hisses.

"it's your fault!"

balled fists clutch at the younger's collar, his body shaken mid air, starry eyes wide with fear.

"it's your fault he's dead! you're fault that he suffered that damn long!"

hands hurry to separate the two boys, furrowed brows and jutted lips pointed towards the fuming boy, eyebrows raised for an explanation.

"he loved you!"the small boy seethes, teary eyes narrowed at the younger, "he loved you so much that he believed dying was a better choice than losing his feelings for you!"

jungkook can't grasp the situation. his best friend had loved him. loved him enough to die for him.

guilt eats at his gut, vision blurry as he stumbles to his feet.

taehyung loved him.

why could he not believe the simple statement? faggot, he had called the couple faggots right before his eyes.

his throat constricts painfully, mind unable to process the thought of his best friend in pain.

but yet, it's not the fact that he regretted not comforting his friend before taehyung had fallen onto his death bed, it's the cruel side of him that's thankful that taehyung hadn't told him.

for jungkook could never love him back.
