Jikook: Only When We're Drunk

4: Guilt Can Change You

No Jungkook, I'm sorry. I'm sorry that you hate me so much.

Jimin's words echoed in Jungkook's mind. He never actually hated Jimin. He just hated that he didn't know any boundaries.

Jungkook was exhausted the next morning to say the least. He barely got any sleep.

He heard soft knocking on his door.

"Jimin-hyung?"

"No, it's Tae."

"Oh, come on in."

Tae opened the door and crawled in bed with the maknae.

"Wow you look awful," he said.

"Gee thanks Tae, that's exactly what I wanted to hear right now," Jungkook replied sarcastically.

"What happened buddy? You can tell me."

Jungkook sighed and stretched to stall. Then yawned. Then rubbed his eyes.

"Jungkook stop stalling. What happened?" Tae asked more serious than previously.

"Uhh well you see I just really didn't want to eat at the Votre Destin last night, that's all."

Tae didn't buy it for a second. "That's bull Jungkook."

"Fine you got me... it's just Jimin and I aren't very good terms hyung. I just... I don't even know how to explain it but... I just don't understand him."

"Hmm well Jungkook, it seems he probably doesn't understand you either. Maybe you should start by apologizing, then try to understand each other better."

"You're a real piece of work you know that Tae?"

"Shut up Jungkook, I'm serious."

"Sorry Tae, I cant take your advice seriously," he said with a laugh. "Wait why should I even apologize to Jimin? He's the one that started this!!"

Jimin is the one who doesn't know personal space and keeps freaking touching me. What did I do wrong? So what if I scared him? He caused this. Jungkook thought.

"It doesn't matter." Tae stated. "Teasing someone is completely different than scaring the life out of someone. You scared all of us when you stormed out, actually."

Jungkook sighed. "Maybe you're right... I'll... I'll apologize first. But I swear to god if that bastard doesn't apologize back I'm throwing fists-"

"Jungkook. This is serious. He's actually sad. And please, try to make an effort to understand each other, 'kay? I don't like when our members are in a fight. We should be like family and help each other."

"You're so family oriented Tae."

Tae raised his eyebrows.

"Okay fine, I promise to make an effort to understand him. Now can we drop this for now?"

"Okay Kook, just make sure to do it soon."

Jungkook finally got the courage to walk into the kitchen for breakfast, knowing the rest of the group was probably there.

Everyone was there except Jimin.

"Uh where's-"

"Where's Jimin? He's having breakfast with some of the staff today." Suga answered monotoned as usual.

"Oh okay.." Jungkook felt so guilty. He knew he was the reason Jimin was eating with the staff.

"Hey Jungkook what even happened last night? That's not like you." Jhope asked.

"I-"

"It's okay guys Jungkook already told me. It's going to be fine soon. Right Jungkook?" Tae said.

"Yeah..."

"Okay Jungkook just please don't ever do that again." Namjoon said.

"Okay.."

"Now let's have my amazing breakfast!" Jin said, obviously trying to lighten the mood.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

They had a concert today but Jungkook couldn't focus.

Jimin made sure not to make eye contact with the maknae. He completely ignored him in fact.

Jungkook sighed before they went to perform. He walked beside Jimin, who refused to look at him.

"Listen Jimin, I'll give you a proper apology later but I would just like to say I'm sorry and please don't let this ruin your performance. You're..." Ugh I cant believe I'm about to say this but, "You're an amazing performer Jimin. And Army deserves to see us perform our best..."

Jimin just slightly nodded, still facing away from him.

Jungkook thinks I'm an amazing performer? Jimin thought. A small smile formed on his face.
