  Taehyung didn't let Yoongi's words affect him after. Yoongi seemed really sad and he didn't seem to really care about others, so Taehyung decided that someone like him shouldn't be able to hurt him, no matter how cool and collected he was.

It was Friday, and Jungkook was sitting in first period. Those two girls that liked to tell each other the daily drama at school were at it again, but this time Jungkook caught something that peaked his interest.

"That Yoongi guy—"

"Oh, he's so hot."

"True, but everyone thinks he's gay now," the first girl frowns.

The other gasps, "Why?"

The girl glances at Jungkook who was pretending like he wasn't listening, even though he totally was.

"He was seen hanging out with that gay freak that got shot," she says, the other girl gasping, once again, and whining.

"No fair!"

Jungkook didn't understand. Taehyung with Yoongi? Did he do something to him? Did he touch him? Threaten him? Why on earth would Taehyung talk to that thief?

So at lunch, Jungkook asked the question while the three ate on the roof.

"Tae," Jungkook says, getting his attention as he looked off into the distance.

"Mhm?"

"How's Yoongi doing?"

Jimin looked over, his mouth full of bread, "How would he know?"

Jungkook hums, "They were spotted hanging out yesterday."

Jimin whips his head to face Taehyung, "What?"

Taehyung sighs and shrugs, putting his sandwich down, "I saw him alone so I went and talked to him. He's a sad person."

"Did he do anything to you?" Jungkook asks, his eyebrow raised.

Taehyung shook his head, "No. he just needs some friends in his life, really."

Jimin pulls Taehyung closer to him, "Don't talk to him, babe."

Taehyung pushes back, "You did when you decided to bring him back home. Why can't I?

Jimin kinda freezes, "Uhhh..."

"What did you two even talk about?" Taehyung asks, crossing his arms.

Jimin starts to nervously bite his lip, turning to Jungkook for help. Jungkook starts to speak but stops himself, "Sorry, I kinda wanna hear it too."

Jimin glared, "I'm going to beat your ass," he whispers before he sighs and faces forward.

"We didn't talk much. It was mostly me talking, and he just kinda stared at me with boredom until I suggested... going to my house," Jimin shrugged.

Taehyung just sits there with his arms crossed, "Yeah, well at least I didn't ask him to sleep with me."

Jimin deflated, "Come on! You can't possibly still be mad at me! What did you two talk about, huh?"

Taehyung scoffed, "He asked about me being shot and I lied. It wasn't anything extremely interesting."

"Why does he care?"

Jungkook sighed and grabbed Jimin's shoulders, slightly massaging them, "Calm down, Jimin. He didn't do anything."

Jimin huffs, letting Jungkook calm him down. He wasn't even sure why he was so angry. He just didn't want Yoongi to talk to Taehyung because he was flirting with Jimin, even thought Jimin started it, and he didn't want him to mess with his Tae. He was also upset that Taehyung brought up the whole incident again. He really did feel bad that he was going to go through with it, even though he said he wasn't.
