"Jungkook, ah- I, uh-" Jimin stared at the dumbfounded Jungkook that stood before him. He quickly closed the diary and threw it behind him. He was caught red handed. He braced himself for the worst.
Jungkook still didn't speak. He just stared at the scene before him, tears of embarassment and utter disbelief welling up in his eyes. He felt like he needed to sit before his legs gave out from under him.
"Why didn't you tell me?" Jimin asked, on the verge of crying himself. Jungkook still didn't move. He felt like he was in a severe state of shock. His secret was out.
"Jungkook, why didn't you-" Jimin started to go towards Jungkook but couldn't finish his sentence, because JK turned and began running out the front door at a very fast rate that was hard to keep up with.
Jungkook ran and ran, tears now falling down his face. He planned to run away as far as he could. He was going to run until he could no longer run. The cold air stung his face, but it felt great against the tears that were now burning his eyes. He kept running, never stopping. He heard Jimin close behind him, but he kept going.
"Jungkook, stop! Please! Just talk to me!" Jimin yelled, making it obvious in his voice that he was crying.
Jungkook briefly stopped, at least five feet ahead of Jimin and yelled back, "JUST LEAVE ME ALONE! YOU KNOW WHY I'VE BEEN SO DAMN SAD! ARE YOU HAPPY NOW? JUST LEAVE ME ALONE!" JK said, falling to his knees, crying even harder than he was before.
Jimin ran up to where he was, knelt down in front of him, still crying and said with a lump in his throat, "Oh my god I'm so sorry."
JK looked up and grabbed him for a hug, continuing to cry. He was pissed, but he needed someone to let it all out on. After about a minute, Jimin let go, grabbed JK by the shoulders and said, "It was wrong of me. I'm so sorry, JK. I really am. But why didn't you tell me you felt that way about Taehyung?"
JK continued crying, but still spoke through the lump in his throat. "Are you seriously asking me that right now? He sees me like a brother. It'll never happen. He told me he-" He stopped to catch his breath from crying before continuing. "He told me he thinks Lisa is 'the one' and...she feels the same." More crying followed saying this statement out loud.
"I'm so sorry." Jimin whispered, hugging the crying JK once more while crying himself.
"I can feel my heart breaking, Jimin ssi." JK whispered. More crying followed this.
They sat there in painful silence for what felt like forever. JK felt pissed at Jimin, but he was really the only one he had right now, and he needed someone.

[Back at home]
The others went to their rooms. They saw JK and Jimin run out the front door, but they thought it'd be best to leave them alone, considering how Jimin had previously said that JK would reveal more if they weren't around. Taehyung didn't go to his room. He remained in the gathering space, wide awake, despite how late the hour was getting. He couldn't stop worrying. He couldn't seem to decipher Jungkook and what was wrong, and that scared him. He knew him for five years, and yet seemed to barely know him in times like this. Tae would alternate between sitting and pacing around the gathering space. Jimin and JK have been gone for almost an hour now. He almost went out to go find them a couple times, but thought that it would be best to leave them alone.
In a time like this, he needed someone, so he decided to call Lisa. He felt like he could count on her and he felt like she might know something about that night when JK slept on the bathroom floor. He dialed her number and waited. It rang four times before she answered.
Lisa: Hello?
Taehyung: Hey Lisa, it's Taehyung. I have a bit of a problem and I just needed someone to talk to.
Lisa: You know I'm always here for you...what's up?
Taehyung: It's Jungkook. He's been acting VERY strange lately and I don't know what's wrong. You were with him the night he fell asleep in the bathroom. You seemed very shaky when I saw you. Do you know anything about why he slept in there?
Lisa: *sigh*. Listen Tae, I want to help you out, but I don't know if what I'm thinking could be the real reason IS the real reason. I have to be wrong, because that's such a ridiculous thing to even think up. There's no way he-...I don't know Tae, I just know that he ran to the bathroom and got terribly sick after I started talking to him and he insisted on being left alone when I tried helping him. He literally refused help, so there wasn't much I could've done. I'm sorry. I wish I could help you.
Taehyung: It's alright. You did what you could. I think I know what's wrong now!
Lisa: What do you think is wrong?
Taehyung: I think he likes you! I mean it makes sense. He got sick and nervous after talking to you, which is a telltale sign that a guy likes a girl. I would know.
Lisa: Oh no. Taehyung I don't think that's i-
Taehyung: Thanks for the info, Lisa! You're the best!
Lisa: Anytime, Tae.
Taehyung: Bye now, I'll call you if anything else happens.
Lisa: Ok. Bye.
Lisa sighed when she put down the phone. She failed to tell Tae about how she told JK that she thought he was 'the one' right before he got sick, and how he begged her not to retrieve Tae when he was sick. She knew Jungkook was in love with Taehyung, not her, but she thought it'd be best not to say anything about it. After all, it might not even be true! It couldn't be true. That was just...impossible.

Hello lovely people who read this far in the story! I hope you're enjoying it. My eyes burn right now but I need to keep writing.
The story will be coming to a close soon, but don't worry, the depression will seize.
Also, I hope you're all enjoying the gifs I've been including. I have literally 100 Vkook gifs and pictures saved in my phone, but I can sadly only include one per chapter, so I had to pick the best of the best.
I'm done, enjoy the rest!
