Nothing Left For You (Vminkook)

Jimin

I thank Yoongi as he hand me the coffee I asked for, I was thankful that I had a friend like him, someone I could depend on no matter what.

"You went home this morning?" He asks as he sits across from me at the kitchen table.

I nod. "Yeah. I had to talk to Taehyung."

He nods, drumming his fingers against the table. "Is everything okay?"

"No." I say with a sigh. "But I'm sure everything will work out soon."

"Work out? Like, your relationship working out?" He asks, his expression holding concern and a bit of confusion.

"I don't know, honestly." I say with a shrug. "I'm trying to listen to my heart, but it's hard to understand what it's saying."

"I understand." Yoongi says. "If you want to talk about anything I'm here. Okay?"

I smile. "Thank you. You seriously mean the world to me."

He chuckles a little. "I'm glad that I am somewhat significant in your life."

I chuckle a little as well, my smile fading after a moment. "Do you think I'd be a fool to go back to him, Yoongi?"

"Of course not." He says. "If that's what your heart wants I can't think of you as a fool."

"What if my heart is being over emotional and irrational?" I ask, looking down at the black coffee in my cup. "Or what if it's scared to let go?"

"That sounds like your head talking to me, Jiminie." He says, his tone gentle and comforting as he continues. "I've never been in a long term relationship like you and Taehyung, but I know that after all this time you guys have developed a bond like no other. You watched each other grow up from adolescence into adulthood and that's something not everyone has the luck to experience. And if I were you, even if someone hurt you like this, I'd be afraid to think about a life without them."

I nod along with his words, tears burning my eyes.

"But the heart, your heart, Jimin. It knows you better than you think it does. And if you feel it in your heart that you are meant to stay with Taehyung, then I think you should stay." He says, his eyes almost sad as he does. "Only you can make that decision though, despite what I say."

I sigh, my heart tugging again as I contemplate leaving Taehyung.

"I just think I'm being weak." I say honestly. "And if I wouldn't have found out he would have never told me."

"You're still overthinking things." Yoongi says. "Tell me this, Jimin. In your heart, is there even a smidgen of forgiveness for Taehyung?"

"Of course there is, I want to forgive him." I say honestly. "It just hurts, Yoongi. That he can do this, for years and still have me in the end. Like all these years of infidelity didn't matter."

"I understand. And it isn't fair. He shouldn't come out with the prize in the end. But this isn't about him, Jimin. It's about you. What do you want?" Yoongi asks.

I sigh, what do I want? "I want to be with him."

"So, instead of trying to make him pay, which he should, follow your heart. Be with the person you love." He says, his voice unmistakably sad.

"Are you upset, Yoongi?" I ask after noticing.

"What?" He asks, his expression changing immediately. "No, I'm just trying to help."

I nod. "You've helped me far more than you'll ever know, Yoongi. You're the greatest best friend anyone could ever ask for."

He laughs softly. "I'm glad."

I stand and walk around the table, hugging him from behind his chair.

"Thank you for helping me follow my heart."

"Of course. I hope you're happy with your decisions, Jimin. You deserve to be happy."

Hoseok

When I open the door to Jungkook's house it looks as if he isn't home initially, the lights are out and the curtains are drawn.

    "Kook?" I say into the darkness as I turn on the kitchen light, illuminating the living and a bit of the hall way. "Hey, Kook? It's, Hobi."

I walk down the hall towards his bedroom, finding the door slightly ajar, quiet sniffles coming from within the pitch dark room.

I push the door open and step inside, flipping on the light to find him laying in his bed.

He's laying on his side facing away from the door, his body shaking in small sobs.

    "Jungkook-ah." I say heartbrokenly as I sit next to him against the headboard. "Come on, sit up and talk to me."

He sniffles some more as he wipes his face before pushing himself up into a sitting position.

I sigh sadly as I take in his appearance, bloodshot eyes still puffy from crying. "Jeez, Kook. I hate seeing you like this."

"It's my fault." He says, his voice small and distant as he pulls his knees to his chest. "I was an idiot."

"You weren't." I say, pulling him into a hug.

"I was. I was an idiot to think he'd leave him for me." He cries as he hugs me back. "In the back of my mind I always knew it'd never work. I knew that, but I love him. I love him, Hobi. He was supposed to love me too, how could he do this to me?"

I shush his as I rock him slowly. "I know, Kook. I'm sorry."

"I waited for him." He sobs, his hands grasping my shirt like it's the only thing keeping him grounded as he cries. "I waited for him for so long, Hobi."

"I know, Jungkook." I say, my throat tightening up with tears as I try to soothe him. "I'm so sorry."

He continues to cry as I hold him close, his tears wetting my shirt as I do so.

His sobs sound so sad, so heartbroken, something I never expected to hear out of someone like Jungkook.

He wasn't meant to be this broken by anything or anyone and even though he contributed to some of the hurt he was feeling he still didn't deserve it.

It wasn't his fault that he fell in love, he couldn't control that part.

"I know it hurts right now, Jungkook. But I just want you to know that this hurt you are feeling is only temporary. And in the future you'll look back and realize that through all the hurt you're feeling right now came a little wisdom." I tell him. "You're already wiser than you were a few days ago. And you're wise enough to know that you have to be careful about who you fall in love with. Because you love hard, Kook. And sometimes loving hard gets you hurt."

He nods through his tears, his breathing slowly calming down as he tries to stop crying.

"It's okay to cry for a little while, but you have to keep going. You can't let this keep you down. Okay?" I ask him.

"O-Okay, Hobi." He sniffles, tears falling less frequently.

He was going to get through this heartbreak, despite the pain of loving someone and suddenly having to live without loving them, he'd get through this.
