seokjin furiously dried the tears that glistened on his beautiful face. "taehyung- don't you think you are overstepping your boundaries. i am not obliged to tell you everything", seokjin muttered harshly. seokjin was almost sure that this would happen then why was he dismayed. he had to be strong. how could he allow himself to cry. 'seokjinnie- you are a crybaby. you have to be stronger', his brother smiled. stronger. seokjin has to be stronger. 

taehyung brushed his hair away from his eyes. "i understand. you don't have to tell me anything that doesn't concern me but this does", taehyung spoke carefully watching the other boy's expressions. "look. i may behave like a kid but i really am not that oblivious. your stomach isn't upset. you didn't want to talk to namjoon-hyung. you know him don't you.", taehyung continued. seokjin did not look at taehyung, "see. it is better we don't talk about this. you will be leaving in twenty days and then we will never see each other again. that is it. i don't know why you are so stubborn", seokjin spoke gathering some courage. taehyung was now digging his nails into his palm, "is that it seokjin. don't tell me i am just your annoying room mate who can't wake up on his own", he mumbled. "it doesn't matter", seokjin spoke. taehyung nodded, "you are right. it doesn't. right now, i want to know what is it that you are keeping from me. because i know it concerns my brother and what concerns my brother concerns me", taehyung said boldly.

"brother, brother, brother!", seokjin spat. "my brother is this, my brother is that. you are all about him. he was responsible for someone's death but he is still perfect to you. you blamed yourself for the death instead. you took up his sentence. did you ever think that because of your brother someone else lost their brother too", seokjin spat. taehyung was now unable to prevent the tears from dashing across his cheeks. "i can't believe you. what is wrong with you. i thought you understood that it was an accident. i thought you believed my brother was a nice person. i didn't know you had so much hate against my brother piled up in your heart.", taehyung poured out. "you know, in that accident, i almost lost namjoon-hyung too. you don't understand. you aren't the only one", taehyung whispered, instantly regretting the words that he spoke.

seokjin sighed, "stop taehyung, stop. i didn't tell you everything about me for your sympathy. i never asked for it. i never asked for jungkookie to be dead. my jugkookie", seokjin trembled.

taehyung was astonished. "jungkookie-", he asked with a frown. "jungkook, my step brother. september one. it was his birthday. i wanted to surprise him. i arranged a picnic by the river. i was supposed to pick him up but i had something came up. nonetheless i could make it on time to the river. i asked him to drive to the river on his own but he never came. never. he died in a car accident. jungkook had showed a photo of a handsome man. the boy was a senior, about to graduate but the two had managed to fall in love. he said he was really falling in love with the man. he refused to tell me the name. it is too soon, he shrugged. the photo, it was your brother- namjoon." seokjin spoke. taehyung was dumbfounded. he didn't know what to say or what to do. "why didn't you tell me before", he managed to utter. "i wan't sure. today when i saw your brother. it confirmed that my jungkookie was the same jungkook that you told me about. besides i was too afraid to accept the reality. i was afraid that if i accepted the reality, we wouldn't be the same. 

taehyung drew a deep breath before placing his lips on the brunette's plump lips slowly sucking on them "i am sorry, jinnie. i am really". seokjin was tempted to wrap his arms around the blonde's waist and draw him closer but the images of his dead brother in the coffin cramped his mind. he pulled away, "i am sorry taehyung- i can't do this. not right now"

just joking, not so soon baby.

if any of you are confused as to why i suddenly updated a chapter called part one, it is because i have decided that the book will be dived into three (or four) parts. with this being the end of the first part.
