//5 YEARS LATER//

Taehyung blinked his eyes open, the sunlight from the large window in the room streaming down on his face. He rubbed his eyes and yawned loudly, stretching his arms over his head.

Taehyung turned around on his side, expecting to see Jungkook sleeping beside him, but instead fell off the couch with a loud thud. Oh right, the couch. There was no Jungkook.

He grunted and pulled himself up from the floor, and walked to the bedroom, scratching his head, his red sweats and grey shirt clinging to his body. He opened the door carefully, peeking in to see what Jungkook was doing.

The room was empty.

Taehyung walked in, a bit confused, and then heard the sound of the shower running. He walked to the bathroom and pulled open the door, seeing Jungkook standing under the shower, scrubbing his chest with a loofah.

"Good morning." Taehyung said, walking up to the sink, his voice seeming hoarse after just waking up. Jungkook didn't respond.

"I said good morning." Taehyung repeated, turning on the tap and splashing some water on his face. Jungkook rolled his eyes from the side, "What's so good about this morning?"

"Oh come on. Don't tell me you are still upset about what happened last night, are you?" Taehyung scoffed, trying to squeeze out some toothpaste from an empty tube. Jungkook whipped around to face him, angry, "Of course I'm still upset about what happened. How can I not be? I am mad."

"You are just being dramatic. It was not that big of a deal." Taehyung said, rolling his eyes and started brushing his teeth, having finally gotten some toothpaste out.

"Not that big of a deal? You fucking cheated on me. With Jia! Taehyung that is not a big deal for you? You didn't think twice about my feelings, did you? I should never have trusted you. I can't believe I trusted you. I can't believe I'm living with a cheater!" Jungkook snapped, glaring at Taehyung as he brushed his teeth.

"Fine-" Taehyung said, spitting the toothpaste out and gargling his mouth clean. He turned the tap off and turned to Jungkook, "Move out then."

"I will. I am breaking up with you, I'm packing my clothes and I'm taking a flight back to Daegu. Right now! I don't want to live with you. I should have never gotten together with you. I hate you. I DESPISE you, Kim Taehyung. I can't believe you would do this to me. After all we've been through, Tae? I'm done with you. I'm calling my mom and-"

"Jungkook-"

"No- no you shut up this instant! You are not getting away with what you did. I am calling my Mom and Dad, and I'm telling them what a cheating scumbag you are-"

"Stop making it seem like I hooked up with Jia or something. It was a fucking Ludo game for fucks sake!" Taehyung snapped, stomping his foot on the ground in annoyance.

Jungkook glared at him, "So? That doesn't make you any less of a cheater." He said and then turned away, rubbing the large pink loofah over his arms aggressively. Taehyung sighed, a small smile on his face as he took his shirt off.

Taehyung stripped his clothes off and threw them in the laundry basket before walking into the shower with Jungkook. He wrapped his arms around Jungkook from behind, the water running down on both of their bodies, and brought his lips to Jungkook's ear, "I'm sorry."
