Chapter 8 - Call

20 2 6
                                    

His eyes into mine's, like in a bubble, the skin of my fingers was craving for his, why?

Still looking at me, he took a long sip of that drink, opened his mouth saying my name with calm raspy voice
"Seokjin maybe I.."
A phone.
Unbelievable, a phone rang, my phone.

Incomoming call: Taetae

"Oh, not now"
I clicked on "decline the call", I wanted to hear Joonie.

"Sorry, Namjoon, what were you.."
Again, my phone

Incoming call: Chimchim

Jimin too?
I looked in Namjoon's direction, not knowing what to do
"Go Jin, maybe it's important" he was disappointed, I saw that in his eyes, but both of my boys called me, knowing I was on a "maybe it's a date" and..

"Jimin?"
"H-Hyung I'm Tae, I-m.."
He was sobbing uncontrollably
"Taehyung what's goin on? Tae, is everything alright, are you ok? Is Jimin ok?"
I was so loud and people were staring at me, a dude screaming in Korean was not an enjoyable view.
Namjoon was worried, he came by my side, taking my arm, trying to calm me down but god, I was so fuckin worried.
Behind the phone I still heard Tae crying

"Taehyung, I'm coming but tell me you and Jimin are.."
"It's Jungkook"
Kookie?
"What? Jungkook what?"
"He, he didn't reply to my texts for all day, he didn't pick up calls he.."

That was weird for Jungkook, he was the sweetest stocky person I've known so far

"..and hyung I called his mum and.."

I was panicking, my body was shaking, I forgot about Namjoon, about everything

"Taehyung is he alright?"

"H-Hes not injured or something, but I don't know, she said he didn't wanna talk with me, hyung why?"
"Let me talk to Jimin, please"
"O-Okay hyung"

I was trembeling, I needed to go home, to collect the shattered pieces of Taehyung, I had to figure out what the hell happened, god the day before they were cool and now..

"Hyung"
"Jimin tell me something"
Jimin was quiet, I heard Tae's sobbing in the background.
"Jin hyung, I don't know what to do, please come home, Tae is in pieces I.." his voice cracked "..I cant see him like this, oh no, I'm crying too"

Jimin and Taehyung were soul friends, their friendship was the purest thing in the world, they found each other years ago, both lonely, both with their issues and struggles. They shared a lot of lifetime together, if one was hurt, the other suffered too, if one was happy, the other smiled too.

"Jimin, don't cry, I'm your hyung I'll take care of everything I swear, I'm coming"
"Hurry up, please"
His voice was like a light from a dyeing candle.

Tae was broken, so was Jimin. Two bodies, one soul.

Only after the end of the call I realized that everyone was staring and Namjoon was holding mi fingers in his hands, with eyes full of tense

"Seokjin you're shaking"

Was I? God, nothing scared me the most than one of my boys' pain.
Back in Korea I didn't have a lot of friends, well maybe I didn't have any. Just occasional people, ordinary, boring people. I had some dates, a couple of boyfriends, even a girlfriend when I was still in the closet, but never had true friends.
Until them, first Taehyung.
I met him at work: I was a waiter in an art cafe, I wanted money on my own so i had to work, he was the weird boy in the corner, with his golden glasses, fluffy hair and the usual extra large cappuccino with a lot of cocoa powder and a lot, really a lot, of sugar
Sometimes I noticed that he was staring at me, not in a creepy way, but with his typical curious look.
One day he started talking to me, word after word he gained a little bit of my heart
"Hyung are you gay?"
"What? Oh, fuck, shut up! You know they're not so chill about that, I can lose my job I.."
"but are you?"
Yes, I was and he helped me to come out, with my family first and with the world then, he was my first real friend, until he introduced me to Jimin, then I had two real friends, until he decided to finally kiss the boy, and then Jungkook became my friend too.
They were family, I couldn't stand their sobbing voices.

So yes, I was totally shaking.

"Namjoon, I have to go home, I'm sorry"
He smiled calmly and softly "don't worry Jinnie, do you want me to come?"
Oh, I didn't deserve him, he didn't know me but he was worried anyway.

"Joon you're precious, but don't worry, I'll take care of that"
"Go then"
He was still holdin my hand 'til that moment, I looked in his eyes with a lot of gratitude and I started to run, in the middle of a fancy bar, in the middle of Rome, to the metro station.

Horrible thoughts, my mind was full of horrible thoughts.

Home.

"Jimin, Tae-what?"
Jimin had a killer look painted on his face, Taehyung was pale and expressionless.
Tae's phone was broken in the corner of the floor, like if someone threw it away
Everything was quiet, too quiet.
"What happened?"
Tae looked into my eyes, broken

"He cheated"

He what?
