DIRTY SECRET || Kookjin

4

Jin's pov:

I release my tightly held breath as I was agitated. Not that I am scared of him just that sometimes his aura is gloomy and he has my secret over that, which makes me comply to the things I don't want to.

I sigh as I take a deep breath again. My stomach grumbles, I couldn't able to eat anything at home as I hurried over here. Since it is already lunch break I think of grabbing something to eat.

When I was about to get up a familiar figure seats himself in front of me, with a charming smile evident on his face.

"Jimin!" I exclaim as I meet my friend. Who is also a student of this university, majoring in media studies.

"Long time no see, hyung." He smiles as he stuffs his face with a hamburger.

"Yeah, quite busy these days," I say scratching my head. " How are you Jimin?"

"Quite busy huh? You don't even hang out with me anymore. You always say you have this, you have that,hyung!" he nags as he continuous to devour his burger.

I chuckle at his cuteness. Honestly speaking, being socially inept I don't have many friends, those who I had left me just like that. Where as Jimin, I met him during our orientation day. He was having some trouble with finding the dean's office and I helped him. That's it, since then he clung to me as if I did some great deed and never left my side. I was skeptical in the beginning, but later I realized he is a gem of a person, whose presence itself makes people happy. I am very glad that he befriended me. Or else I couldn't imagine myself all alone again.

My train of thoughts break as Jimin snaps his fingers "Earth to hyung...what are you thinking?" he asks, now drinking his chocolate milkshake.

"Nothing Jiminie, just like that." I ruffle his hair, as we both warmly smile at each other.

"Seriously, hyung, you are doing fine right? Please tell me if something is off....these days you always seem so exhausted and over that you rarely hang out with me." He asks me, his voice oozing with concern.

"I am fine Jimin. Don't worry." I lie to him. As much as I want to tell him. I don't wanna get him involved in this mess. It was created by me and I'll only deal with it.

We talk for some time and bid goodbye to each other promising to meet soon.

Now that I think, I do have a leisure period as my lecture got cancelled, why not put that for something productive. So, I visited the library to collect information about our project.

The library is kind of old and antique with voluminous space, placed with numerous large racks of books either sides. Today people seem to be lesser than usual, so I directly stride towards the last section at the very end. Where it is bit dark and secluded, as it doesn't have windows over there.

I climb on the stool and start searching the books in the upper shelf. It must have been some good ten minutes, suddenly I feel a presence looming large behind me. Before I could process, I felt a sudden tight grip of a hand snaking around my waist, lifting me into the air, as my back collied against a sturdy chest.

I panicked in fear with the sudden violation of my personal space. And I start to squirm, unable to scream as that person's hand is over my mouth restraining me to make any sound.

But all my squirming halts as I hear the very similar voice, whisper yelling me. "stop squirming, it's me, Jungkook!" I got goosebumps all over my body as I feel his breath fanning against my ear.

He places me down and turns me around, still having his hand over my mouth as he checks the surrounding carefully.

Once he makes sure it was secluded, he finally removes his hand, stepping backword- giving me some space. His eyes boring into mine, making me look small under his intimidating gaze.

"Couldn't you just reject, when Taehyung asked you?" you wanted it didn't you?" he chuckles sardonically.

What the hell is he saying?! I know he has an ascendency over me, but that doesn't mean he will spout any nonsense!

I take a deep breath, trying to keep my temper " listen, I didn't ask for Taehyung to make me as your partner. Over that, you didn't even let me speak. And let me clear your fogged mind am not dying to be your partner here. So, get a life JK!

My utterance must have triggered him. As he steps closer and slams me against the rack. " Look, here Jin. I really don't care what you want and don't want....There is no way in the world I would let them know what is between us and...."

"As if I am dying here." I chuckle as I cut him off in the middle.

His eyes turn into blood-red as he almost screams. "what the hell did you say?" before he could do anything we both hear the clattering of foot steps against the marble floor nearing us. He suddenly distances himself from me, fixing himself.

"Hey, Jin and Jungkook...you guys here?" I sigh. It is Taehyung. Bless his soul or else who knows what this psycho would have done to me.

" Y-yeah we are collecting information for our project," I state it out hoping not to make it even more complex then already it is.

His mouth forms an 'O'. " Good job guys, keep it up. See, I told you, you guys would make a great team." He beams.

I smile and nod , as Jungkook rolls his eyes, frowning.

"Okay guys, I am gonna go and work out on mine.... Oh, by the way, kook, I wanted to ask....Can you help me in picking up my brother tomorrow at Four a.m from airport? I can't, Since I have given my car to the service."

"What at Four A.m!" he whines.

"Oh, come on, kook. Haven't I come with you every time to that shitty club and I even- "

"Enough Taehyung! Fine I will pick you up in the morning." He hurriedly complies before Taehyung can spit some stupid shit furthermore.

He smirks, knowing exactly how to hit the right spot " You are the best, bro. I'll see you later." Just like that he proceeds to move quickly to join his partner.

I stood there awkwardly, trying to comprehend what were they even talking about. But again his gruff voice breaks me out of trance, as he says,

"I won't be coming tonight. So, don't waste your time waiting for me." He strides away, making me feel the strange presence of voidness in my heart.
