my brother's friend; kv

chapter 4

the next morning taehyung wakes up with a headache.

he just thinks that he messed up all his chances with jeongguk.

he really likes the beautiful stranger and he doesn't even know why.

no one besides jimin knows how much taehyung hates himself. and since the incident at the party, he hates himself even more.

but he will hide it. he will hide it by dressing up, putting on make up and talking about how good he looks.

but right now he just wants to take off his pyjamas and change into other comfortable clothes.

but when he takes off his shirt he notices something. he goes to the mirror to look at it properly.

and then he screams.

he screams before starting to cry because of all the hickeys on his neck down to his collarbones.

he doesn't even want to touch them with his shaking hands. he wants them to be gone.

suddenly the door slams open and taehyung's eyes widen when he sees the beautiful stranger standing there.

for a second taehyung thought that he saw a tone of worry in his eyes, but as soon as the thought crossed his mind, again he just sees the emotionless face of the beautiful stranger.

"your brother is in the shower and told me to look after you, since you... screamed."

"i-it's okay. you can go.", he says.

he notices how jeongguk is looking at the hickeys and taehyung wishes that he could sink in the ground right now.

he quickly grabs his shirt to cover the spots before yelling a "get out."

jeongguk goes away and closes the door. "fuck.", taehyung says to himself, regretting how he just yelled at the other. could he even mess up more?

he didn't want jeongguk to see all the hickeys, he's already scared of what he thinks about him..

taehyung sighs frustratedly, running his hand through his hair. then he takes a deep breath and puts on his clothes.

jeongguk is in the shower, yoongi is still sleeping and namjoon is in the livingroom, doing something on his phone.

"hyung?"

"yeah?"

"can you tell him that i'm sorry for yelling at him?"

"you mean jeongguk?"

jeongguk

jeongguk

jeongguk

he repeats the beautiful name of the beautiful human in his head over and over again.

"tae?", namjoon asks, making him notice that he didn't reply.

"y-yeah? um, yeah. jeongguk."

he likes the way the name feels on his tongue.

"um.. sure.", namjoon says and taehyung says a little "thank you.", before going to his room again.

there he sees that jimin is calling.

"tae? what happened? why did you leave early?-"
