Baby Calm Down | Jikook ✔️

Chapter 10: Namjin (pt 2)

By the time we reached the dorm it was quite late.

"Where is he?" I asked Jungkook after giving him a hug as soon as we reached.

"In his room hyung."

"Did he eat?" Namjoon hyung asked.

"No," Tae sighed, "I tried but he wouldn't."

"The others back yet?"

Tae shook his head, and Namjoon slumped.

"I... I don't know what to do." he admitted dejectedly. I watched as he went to sit at the kitchen table, after poring himself a glass of water. I followed him into the room and sat on the seat next to our leader.

"Should I try talking to him hyung?" I asked, unsure of what to do myself.

"And tell him what Jimin? You know how stubborn he is."

"I know hyung."

"Hyung?" Jungkook's quiet voice spoke up. "I-I'm so sorry." he said, starting to cry. "It's all my fault Jin hyung's not eating. It's my fault the two of you are suffering. It-It's all my fault."

"What do you mean Kookie?" Namjoon asked, he opened his arms for a hug which Jungkook gave him instantly.

"I told him you liked him hyung." He cried, "without a-asking for your (hic) permission first. I just blurted it out. I'm so sorry hyung. It's all my fault."

"Jungkook," Namjoon gave him a small reassuring smile, "It's not your fault. He was bound to find out I liked him eventually. Don't beat yourself up over it okay? Trust me it's not your fault."

"It is hyung! I'm sorry. I'm so sorry!"

"Kookie," I sighed, reaching out for him, but he pushed my hand away, getting up from his seat.

"No hyung!" He cried out, "I shouldn't have said anything. I thought it was for the best but I ruined everything. I don't know why you're trying to make me feel better when what I did was wrong. I'm sorry. I don't know what to do to make this all better. It's all my fault."

"Jungkook stop it."

I looked up startled to see Jin hyung standing there, a scowl on his face. He had come in so quietly that I never even suspected his presence.

Tae instantly brightened up rushing over to Jin hyung's side instantly. However he was brushed off. Jungkook had yet to stop crying, still looking guiltily at the ground.

"Jimin, take Jungkook to your room, make sure he calms down." he instructed. I gave a small smile, even in his state, his priority was to keep us comfortable. "And Taehyung, check in with the others, it's pretty late, make sure they come home soon."

"Yes hyung." he said, rushing off with his phone in hand.

"Yes hyung." I also said, taking Jungkook's hand in mine, casting a glance at Namjoon and leading the two of us out of the kitchen.

"Let me go." Jungkook whisper-yelled at me, struggling to get my grip on his wrist off. We had barely made it a few steps away from the kitchen where Namjoon and Jin hyung still remained.

"What're you trying to do?" I asked alarmed as I saw him press his ear to the kitchen door. 

"I want to hear what they are saying."

"Jungkook no." I said sternly, "that's not fair."

"I know hyung," he pouted, "but I have to know. I... I feel too guilty. I want to make sure they work things out."
