You're sick of sitting in the hospital.

The overly sweet nurses who bring you tomato soup are starting to get on your nerves. You can practically hear them sharing pitying looks with each other once they step outside your ward.

You tried to convince Sarah that your arm wound wasn't worth a hospital visit, but she refused to listen. In fact, you would have paid to see the look on her face when she walked in to find you unconscious and bleeding on the floor. But you'll have to settle for her babysitting you for the past couple hours, threatening to murder Hannah for what she did.

You still couldn't fully wrap your head around the pure hatred your former roommate slash assaulter felt towards you. Over a boy.

Suddenly, the door to your room swings open to reveal the boy that indirectly caused this mess.

"Y/n! Are you okay?" Jimin rushes to your bedside and begins worriedly stroking your hair. "I'm so sorry I couldn't get here sooner- Sarah told me she had it covered. Otherwise I would have come here immediately."

You allow his warm hands to caress your face for a moment and you smile up at him. "Don't worry about it. I'm totally fine- I've been begging them to discharge me already."

Jimin chuckles under his breath. "My strong girl, of course you have."

Feeling back at home with the man you love, you reach up and grab the back of his neck, pulling him closer to you. You hold him there for a moment, savoring his scent before you lean in and press your lips against his.

But...

It's not the passionate kiss you're used to. It's completely one-sided. His lips are stone-cold against yours, as opposed to his usual pillowy embrace.

You pull back, confused. "Jimin? Why aren't you kissing me back?"

His tongue flicks nervously over his lips as he avoids eye contact. After a few moments of silence, he says, "Y/n, I have something to tell you. Taehyung... he... he kissed me."

Looking back on it, you will probably wish you had a picture of your face in this moment. Your jaw drops in shock.

"He what?!"

"He kissed me," Jimin sighs, "And told me that the reason he's been so adamant on trying to keep us apart is because he had closeted feelings for me."

You sat back in your hospital bed, stunned, and pressed both fingers against your temples, unable to formulate a response.

But I slept with Tae first... Was that him just trying to cover up his feelings for Jimin? How long has this been going on? Does he have feelings for both of us? This is so complicated. How does Jimin feel about this? Does he also have unresolved feelings for Tae? Did he enjoy the kiss?

Jimin sees the millions of questions flying through your head, and waves a hand in front of your face. "Y/n?"

You take a few seconds to collect yourself, and ask the most important question of all:

"So... threesome?"

Taehyung Perspective
Taehyung paces restlessly in his flat, not knowing what to do. His heart was still racing hours after the kiss... the kiss that changed everything.

He craved to know what Jimin was feeling now, and also how he internally reacted immediately after the kiss. Was he disgusted? Surprised? Jimin's blank face had communicated none of his emotions when Tae's lips had pulled away. Then he just left without saying anything.

Taehyung had to admit, it stung a little bit, but it was the reaction he was expecting. They had been friends for so long, it made sense that Jimin wouldn't know how to react.

His mind was still reeling with possibilities when he heard a knock at the door. His head snaps up immediately.

"Jimin?" he asked, before opening the door.

"Nope!" you say cheerfully, before pushing past him and flopping onto the couch. "Were you expecting him?"

Taehyung freezes in his place staring at you. He slowly closes the door and awkwardly walks towards the couch you're on. "No... just have a lot on my mind."

You giggle a little at that before saying, "Oh, yeah, I bet. Was it fun for you? Trying to break us up? You and Hannah, I mean. Because Jimin told me everything. The threatening text he got from Hannah... only to find you in her place. And then you kiss him. I mean, I didn't expect that- it's a pretty good twist. Did you expect her to stab me?"

Taehyung's eyes widen at that. "What?"

You begin to slowly unwrap the layers of bandages around your arm, revealing the fleshy scabs that have begun to form. You wince, saying, "Yep. She took a kitchen knife to me. I guess you'll have to fight her to get to Jimin also."

Taehyung flinches looking at your wounds, then turns away in shame. Tears fill his eyes, and he chokes out, "I'm sorry, Y/n. I've been feeling this way for so long; it hurt so badly to see you together." 

You shift your position on the couch to move closer to him. "Tae, I know how it feels to not have your love reciprocated. It can feel like the world is crumbling down around you just because that one person isn't recognizing the amazing person you are. You're great, Tae. But Jimin is not the one for you."

Taehyung nods his beautiful head slowly. "I know," he sniffles, "It's just going to be hard to accept that after so long."

You place a hand on his shoulder and rub him firmly. "I have one more question before I go, Tae."

He looks up in confusion, his brown eyes staring deep into your soul.

You pout, and say, "Did you really only sleep with me to try and make Jimin jealous? I thought this pussy game was bomb."

Oh my GOSHHHGSHSHSHJSH
It's literally been like 2 years since I've written I'm so sorry. Life just got in the way of everything. If you're still reading ILYYY
