Time will tell | VKOOK [C]

Chapter 31

Jungkook pov

Classes were over. I had finally agreed to help Taehyung with the plan. Anything to make him happy.

I still didn't trust Yoongi or Hoseok but as far as Taehyung agreed with them it was fine.

So as I was saying earlier, classes for the day were over. I hated going to the hangout room on these days. Yoongi was always there first on a Wednesday and today was a Wednesday.

I walked to where I knew Jimin would be having classes today. He would be out in...

"hey Kook!" Jimin chirped. My timing was always correct.

"hey Jimin. I'm going out. Wanna join?"

"since when did you start inviting me to go out with you?" I gasped as if offended, "hold up! Who are you and what did you do to my Jungkook?! You're even gasping!" I laughed and pulled his hand towards the parking lot of the school.

"get in." I said watching as he sat inside of the car. I sat down on my seat and turned in the engine, driving out of campus.

A few minutes later, Jimin had an uncomfortable expression on his face.

"are you ok?" I asked, placing a hand in his thighs and looking towards his direction.

"where are we headed?"

"it's a surprise. I thought you loved surprises?" I said focusing back in the road

"I do. Why are we headed here?"

"this is the way." he began squirming uncomfortably on his seat, "what's wrong?"

"huh? Nothing. I just left my car in school. I don't want anyone to steal it you know?" he said chuckling nervously.

"Jimin you're lying. I drove you to school. Remember?"

"oh right." he said scratching his nape.

"wow look. We're here." I said turning off the ignition. His eyes widened comically.

I opened the car door and stepped out, closing it and walking towards Jimin's door, "Jimin, let's go."

"w-what are we doing here?!"

"Tae invited me over and I knew you'll be bored alone so I brought you with me. Let's go." I said pulling him out of the car and pressing the door bell on the door.

The door opened to a smiling Taehyung. One of the most beautiful smiles ever may I add. The bright boxy smile that graced his features made my heart do leaps.

"hey Kookie!" he exclaimed hugging me, "you did it." he whispered in my ear. His breath on my ear sent shivers down my spine. He pulled away from the hug. I wish I could keep that warmth with me forever.

"hey Min!" he said hugging Jimin. Why wasn't he hugging me? Jimin had probably received more hugs than I have. So why was he still hugging him?

Was I... Jealous? Is this jealousy? Is this what it feels like to be jealous?

I felt my tongue poke my cheek, harshly. I was really angry. They were hugging for too long. I watched as Jimin looked at me and his smile turned to a smirk. I smiled. He was gonna be mad in a few minutes.

I cleared my throat I annoyance and watched as they jumped away from each other.

"Tae, did you forget we were still outside?" I asked giving a tight lipped smile.

"oh! Sorry! Totally forgot." he said making way for us to pass. He closed the door and I saw his brother sitting on the couch.

"hey Taehyung's friend... Jimin?" I took that as a cue to leave.

"Tae and I will just..." I began to pull Taehyung upstairs to his room. The sound of foot steps were heard and a commotion I think.

"what's going on?" I asked.

"as you can see, I am downstairs so I would know. How would I know when we are in the same room? upstairs."

"I know you guys like to play Hobi and Tae but... Jimin?"  The thudding of Yoongi's footsteps were fading.  I think he was going downstairs.

"this is gonna be a long day." Taehyung said yawning and tapping the space beside him. I took the hint that he wanted me to sit beside him. I sat on the bed and he scooted closer towards me.

"how did you make Jimin come with you?" he asked looking like a curious puppy. I sighed and smiled and began to narrate how I was able to bring him here.

In between my narration, I felt something on my shoulder. I turned and saw him lying on my shoulder with his eyes closed and his lips parted, releasing little puffs of air.

I looked at the love of my life in adoration. He was willing to help other people date, but why not himself? He didn't want to be in a relationship and certainly not with me.

The thought of that made my heart crack. I didn't know what I would do if he rejected me. I looked at his lovely face and pushed the few strands of hair covering his face away. I admired his beautiful eyes, nose and lips.

I knew that him laying on my shoulder was not a comfortable position so I lifted him and placed him on the bed. I walked out of the room and closed the door, tiptoeing so I could see the people who were once arguing?

When did they even stop?

I looked at them as they were cuddling on the couch. I smiled. Jimin was going to be happy again.

I ran back to the room trying to make as less noise as possible, tapping Taehyung and waking him up.

"they're together Tae! You did it!"

"what?! You're not joking right?"

"no!"

"woo hoo!" he said in happiness. He ran towards me and hugged me. I could get used to this. I held him up and spinned him around.

"God, I love you." I blurted out. I froze with him midair. He giggled.

"I love you too Kookie," he said making my hopes fly up, "as friends." he said smiling.

"yeah as fr-friends." I mumbled. What was I thinking? This hurt a lot. Goodness. Being friend zoned. I never thought I'll experience that. We were back to hugging with his head in the crook of my neck. At least he was hugging me.

"Kook? What happened we heard- oh."  Jimin mumbled smiling. Taehyung jumped away from me.

"Minnie! Come tell me what happened. You're together now yeah?!" he said jumping around holding Jimin's hand.

"yah! Slow down. I'm tired." Jimin said throwing himself on the bed. I watched as Jimin began to narrate with a huge smile on his and Taehyung's face wearing big smiles.

At least all the important people in my life were happy. What more could I want?

Taehyung.
