I sighed as I walked in to work, smiling to one of the cashiers who worked morning shift.

I made my way back to the break room, about to set my wallet and keys down when I felt eyes on me.

I looked up and saw Taehyung, a small smile forming. But it died when I realized he was caged against the break table.

And it just had to be him. Jeon Jungkook. The only guy I had developed a crush on in two years.

And Tae...

"Jimin, don't-"

But I walked away. I didn't want to hear it again. I could feel the tears on my cheeks and everyone was staring at me. I just couldn't stay, though.

Fuck work.

Fuck this job.

Fuck you Kim Taehyung. Fuck you for sleeping with every guy I like. Fuck you for dating all the boys I managed to date under your nose, AFTER I broke up with them. Fuck you for taking money from and my family. Fuck you for asking for rides to work on my day off. Fuck you.

"Jimin!"

"Fuck off!" I yelled, aware that I was in the parking lot and unafraid to scream.

"Jimin, stop. This is ridiculous. Stop being a baby!"

At that I whirled around, my finger already pointed at him. "No! You knew! You knew I liked him! Why do you always have to do this! Is it revenge on me for taking care of you and your sister? For getting you accepted into college? For bailing you out of jail?! What!? What did I do to you?!"

"Guys," our manager came running out to us, standing between us. "Jimin, what's wrong?"

"I quit."

"What? Jimin, you love it here-"

"I quit. Delete my phone number Kim Taehyung. Don't ever call me. Don't come near me. If you ever see me again, just know that you aren't welcome to talk to me."

"Jimin-"

But I was already getting into my car and turning the radio up all the way.

I got a new job at a cafe across town. I ended up moving close to it as well, because I noticed Taehyung walking around my old street a couple times.

I haven't seen him since I moved and I haven't spoken to anyone from my old job. I don't want to know about Jungkook or Taehyung.

I'm better now, without them.

"Can I get a caramel macchiato?"

I looked up from the countertop, putting my dirty rag to the side, ready to smile at the customer. It fell though, when Jeon Jungkook's smirk came into view.

"Haven't seen you...in a while, Park. How are you?"

"Jimin!" My eyes flitted to the door as my boyfriend walked in; Kim Namjoon.

I smiled at him and started to pull my apron off. "Sorry, sir. My shift's ending. My friend can take your order, though."

I pat my new colleague's shoulder as I hurried to put my apron in the laundry and get my backpack from the break room.

I came back out to find Jungkook scowling and Namjoon waiting by the edge of the counter. I happily hopped into his arms and let him kiss my cheek as I hugged him tight.

"Ready to head home?"

"Yeah, but Joonie?"

"Hm?"

"Can I have a real kiss?"

He blushed at first then put me back on my feet before he cupped my cheek.

I giggled and touched my nose to his before pressing forward to kiss him.

He let out his famous, nervous laugh just before I started kissing him, but fell into it just like always.

I smiled as I pulled away, ready to tease him for using the flavored lip balm I bought him (that he said he'd never use). I decided against it, though and held his hand as we started to walk out.

Of course I glanced around at Jungkook before slipping out, loving the eye roll he gave me.

I always thought he liked me.

Sucks he chose having fun over having something real.
