Mask Off [kth x jjk] (COMPLETED)

Introduction

Jungkook:

How many days has it been since i last ate? How many scars did i get this past week? Should I wear the bunny mask or a normal mask to school today? Those were the first thoughts that pop up in my head as I got ready for school. I'm so glad my mom is passed out drunk today.

I'm Jeon Jungkook. I've always been abused, beaten by my mother since my father's death. I always wear a bunny mask to school and never ever take it off. I don't usually take it off at home too unless i have to shower. I also pretend to be mute so that nobody would ever talk to me. And I can say, it works but bullies started appearing.

Taehyung:

Am I going to see him again today? Why does he always wear a mask? I'm so curious about him. I'm dying for the day that he will notice and talk to me. What are you hiding Jeon Jungkook?

I'm Kim Taehyung. And for the longest time since I went to bighit high, I've always had my eyes glued to Jeon Jungkook. He makes me so curious about what he looks like and what he lives his life like. When will I be able to take your mask of Jeon Jungkook? When will I be close to you?

At school....

Jungkook's POV

"Freak!" One of the guys yelled.
"Crazy!" The other one would yell.
"I know... i have so many people calling me that already" Jungkook thought as he rushed past the group of guys in front of him.
He knew that it was way too easy for him to get past them today. Something was up and sadly, he was right. He made it into an isolated corner only to get beat up by Taeyong... again... for the 3rd time of the day. Jungkook knew it was useless to make them stop or to make an effort to fight back. He was too powerless. He hasn't even eaten anything since last week. So, he just laid down on the ground helplessly. Some time after, all the bullies left him alone. He was too weak to walk and too ashamed. He cried tears knowing nobody would save him. And so, he limped and clutched his stomach until he reached the rooftop. Boy oh boy was he surprised to see someone else there.

Someone none other than

Kim Taehyung

He really wanted to run out of there but he had no strength left so he hid on the corner of the staircase until Taehyung would leave. Yes, Jungkook knew who Taehyung was. He was the nice and popular kid. He was the captain of his class and had the most handsome face anyone could ever have. In short, Jungkook has a crush on him. But he has never even talked to Taehyung. Let alone go near him. "He wouldn't want me after he sees what I really am and what I really look like" he thinks to himself.

A few moments later....

Taehyung had left the rooftop and to Jungkook's luck, Taehyung never noticed the boy who was holding back sobs in the corner because he was wearing his headphones. Jungkook was limping towards the bench Taehyung sat on earlier. And he couldn't hold it anymore. He began to sob as hard as he could right then and there.

Why did you leave me dad?

Why is everything so unfair?

Am I really that much of a freak?

Am I too ugly for everyone?

Should I.....

Kill myself?

Luckily, his train of thoughts were cut off by the loud bell ringing. Signaling him to go to his class which was chemistry. Jungkook had learned that if he ever skipped a subject, the school would call his mom and he would always receive more beatings than usual so he rushed inside his chemistry class. One of the three classes he had with Kim Taehyung.

Taehyung's POV

The bell rang minutes ago and he still isn't here. Where is Jungkook? Why am i this worried over him? Just as I thought about him, the boy ran inside class looking so messy. His hair was sticking in different directions and i noticed that he was limping a bit. Just as I was about to offer him a seat next to me, a girl's annoying voice disturbed the whole thing.

"Taehyung oppa! I wanna sit with youu." She whined. My table soon became crowded, filled with the screams of girls. Yes, I am a pretty popular guy. And yes i do get lots of girls' and guys' attention. Before i could even say no, the girl was clinging onto my arm as she made her way on my lap. I glimpsed at Jungkook for a quick second and he had his head down walking past my table and going to the one near the window. I couldn't help but notice....

Was he crying? Why does his eyes look so red?

Jungkook's POV

I almost cried again when the girl sat on Taehyung's lap. Why did i feel this way? I never talk to him ever. So why?

"Shit" Jungkook muttered under his breath as tears flow once again. I was happy I wore his bunny mask today. It covered my full face including my bloodshot doe eyes. I could see that Taehyung was looking my direction as I made my way to the table near a window.

As the students sat down, the teacher decided to arrange our seatmates. She began mentioning names until eventually, she got to my name.

"Jungkook & Vernon"

Boy was I glad i didn't get to sit with Taehyung. But i was wrong. I, Jeon Jungkook have the worst luck. The teacher told all of us to pair up with a person that's sitting behind to get to know our classmates better. And you could already guess that the person is none other than

Kim Taehyung.
