Chapter Six

(a/n - double update 😙)

JIMIN

"I'M HOME BEECH"

Letting out a soft cry as my phone collided with my nose, I hold it as I sit up, looking towards the front door that just collided with the wall. Tae stood there, his bag hanging from his arm and head was thrown back in a dramatic way.  "You're home early" I hiss, mostly to my nose. "What happened to you being gone for another month?"

Tae puffed out his bottom lip, dropping his bag onto the floor and crossing his arms that were now empty, bulging out his hip to make it even more ridiculous, but the corner of my lips try to tug a smile. "Huh? You want me gone or something? I see you didn't miss me, so mean Jiminie"

It finally broke into a smile, not being able to hold a straight face anymore, sitting up straight and place my phone on the table, jumping up and running over before he can blink, tackle hugging him as his back hits the wall. He lets out a surprised yelp before his body is racked with giggles, hugging me back with an iron grip as we kind of have a hug battle.

"I did miss you!" I squeal dramatically, hugging him as tight as I can. He only laughed harder, squeezing me back even tighter as if we were in a contest. I tap his bicep, whining as he squeezes me the hardest, making me hit his bicep more. "Yaahhh stop you're gonna break me in half"

I could almost feel him roll his eyes, finally letting me go and smiles, patting my head making me glare playfully but then just smile not even a second later. "Sorry sorry, I just really missed you"

"Well, go get unpacked so we can sit and talk. I wanna hear everything about your trip"

I hear a soft grunt and I blink as it came from my right. I look over and my eyes widen as the realization hit me. I didn't tell Taehyung about Jungkook. Out of the corner of my eye, I see Tae look over as well. Jungkook had his arms crossed, looking Taehyung up and down before looking over towards me. He was wearing a pair of his loose boxer shorts and a beanie, but a solid black tee too.

"Uhh... Hi?", Tae says quietly, looking over at me and whispering, "Who is this?"

"Ah, I forgot to tell you Tae this i-"

"Ahh is this your boyfriend perhaps Jiminie?"

I felt my face turn a bright red and burn as heat rushed to my cheeks. "Ah- n-no no! This is... a friend of mine that was staying here till he gets a place. He needed help, nowhere else to go"

"Ohh", Taehyung smiles patting my back, "You are always so sweet Jiminie". Taehyung looked over to Jungkook, holding out his hand. I look over at Jungkook with him, a little confused about why Jungkook had almost a hurt expression. Jungkook looked away, looking towards Taehyung and grabbing his hand, giving it a careful shake.

"Well", I clap my hands and slap Taehyung on the back, "Go unpack and I'll put on some ramen for us to eat. Celebrate your return, my dear friend"

He looked over, rolling his eyes, and laughed as he hit my back in return. "Fine fine, I can't wait to eat your famous instant ramen, you world-famous chef"

"Aish shush and go unpack before I kick you out"

"We both rent the-"

"Goooooooooooo"

He only laughed, walking away after giving a bright smile to Jungkook who only gave a small smile back. I watched, waiting till Taehyung gets to his room and shuts his door before turning to Jungkook with a frown.

"I um... I'm sorry for not telling you about Taehyung. I was just so distracted with you being here, that I forgot to mention that I actually do have a friend that lives with m- Jungkook?"

I frown bigger when he just brushes past me, heading to the living room and sitting down onto the couch. "Jungkook?"

~~~

The rest of the day was basically hell, or at least for me. Maybe you would think that when your best friend and your other... partner (?) were getting along really well you would be happy. It's not a fun time when they're both basically ignoring you and doing their own things together, even on the first day of meeting each other. 

When I tried to talk to Jungkook, he would just look at me with the most soured look on his face, glare, and then continue listening to Taehyung. They were always sitting next to each other really close, Jungkook practically sitting on Taehyungs lap. Taehyung also showed Jungkook how to play a game on his PC in his room. I only sat in the living room watching the news as I heard laughs and giggles coming from the room as well as Taehyungs yells of vengeance against the enemy players. 

So here I am, laying on my bed, staring up at the ceiling while listening to the two of them watch something in the living room on the tv. I let out a quiet sigh before sitting up, running my fingers through my hair, and glance over to my clock on the bedside table, seeing it's only 3 pm, still having a whole day. 

I look over to my closet, walking over to it and change into ripped jeans and a sweater that gave me big sweater paws. I only wore it because my hands were cold. I head into the living with light feet, peaking around the corner to see them cuddled up on the couch watching some sort of drama on the tv.

"Hey, do you two wanna go to the mall? I heard the was a sale in most of the stores" I mumble but loud enough the I know they heard me. There was no answer, they didn't even look over. Maybe they really didn't hear me. "Guys?"

Taehyung looks over and smiles. "Hey, Jiminie? Wanna watch this with us?"

Jungkook looks over and I almost felt like I could shrink into my sweater. He had a cold glare and teary eyes before looking away back at the tv.

"Ah, I asked if you wanna go to the mall. It's a nice day and I thought it would be nice get out and walk around" I say a little louder than I did before.

Taehyung frowned a little as I could physically see Jungkooks grip on Taehyungs' arm tightened. "Ah well, actually I told Jungkook I was gonna take him the arcade later. You can come if you want"

I tap my finger on the wall a little, glancing back at Jungkook before giving a small smile and shaking my head. "You two have fun"

I quickly walk back around the corner before he had the chance to comments, heading back into my room and shutting the door. I strip off my sweater, tossing it near my closet, not bothering to hang it back up in the closet and huff. Slipping on a solid white tee I plop down onto my bed, looking back up at my ceiling like I was doing just 10 minutes ago.

What is happening? Before Taehyung came back home, me and Jungkook were hanging out and getting close like we knew each other when we were just born. When he came home, no it's like I'm a ghost to both of them. I wanted to go to the arcade with them, but it was like a slap to the face when I thought about me just walking behind them as they had fun; watching from afar. 

I roll over onto my side facing the wall, laying my head onto my arms with an nth sigh. Maybe I should just head to sleep...
