The Butterfly Code

November 24

Jungkook was confused with everything.

Well- mostly.

He was particularly confused at the moment, as he listened to the argument echoing from the hallways. It was obvious whatever happened a couple of days ago between Namjoon and Jin, was not good. The two had been making up and then arguing again. Making up, then arguing.

For the past three, four days.

This argument was particularly loud. And also long. The others didn't even realize that something had happened between them until Yoongi and Taehyung approached them saying the two had come back upset. That was the day Jin had gone to the Han River Bridge. Then they noticed how they would be nice yet awkward. And then vanish. Then come back upset.

Jungkook looked at Yoongi, the second oldest sighing as the other three flinched with the sound of a door slamming shut. Footsteps approached them, the boys glancing back to see a frustrated Namjoon.

"Namjoon-"

"Don't talk to me!" Namjoon yelled at Yoongi, dropping honorifics, the older male seeming taken back.

The maknae's and Hoseok sucked in breaths as the two rappers held a gaze. Yoongi's eyes hardened, but he still spoke calmly, "Yah, I'm your hyung!"

Namjoon clenched his jaw before huffing, "Sorry hyung,"

"Hyung what's going on?" Jimin asked carefully.

Namjoon only looked more frustrated, "Why don't you ask Seokjin hyung, I bet he'd love to tell you all!"

Jungkook's jaw dropped.

Seokjin hyung

Not even a hyungie.

Jungkook frowned, "Namjoon hyung...you seem really upset. I thought you two made up,"

Namjoon sighed, "Look...I don't want to think about this right now. Just...make sure he doesn't get hurt. I'm going to go out"

The leader glanced down the hallway, before turning away. He gave them a nod and walked towards the door, adjusting his jacket. Grabbing his keys, the rapper slid on his shoes, before leaving the dorm just as Jin emerged from the hallway with a gaze that held a mixture of emotions.

"Come sit hyung," Taehyung smiled softly, but it dropped when Jin asked.

"He left, didn't he?"

The five glanced at one another. Hoseok stood up, walking over to the older gently. Jin was quick to bury his face in Hoseok's shoulder, muttering, "Why am I so annoying? Am I annoying, Hobi? Am I a bad boyfriend? We keep arguing,"

Jin began to shake, the dancer tightening the hug. He gave them a worried frown, the mood in the dorm dropping even lower. Jungkook sighed, noticing how Jimin grabbed his phone. Most likely to text Namjoon about the situation.

The whole situation was confusing. No one understood what was going on. The two would squabble. Then kiss and make up, only to argue again.

Jungkook frowned, thinking of the events. Searching if he and the others had missed something. Had Jin done something wrong? Had Namjoon done something wrong? Or was it just the stress getting to both of them?

The youngest wasn't sure.

"Hyungie, " Jungkook tried, "Why are you and Namjoon hyung arguing again?"

Jin sighed, "I don't know! It's dumb! Every time it's dumb! Once it was because I told him I didn't want to keep living like some crippled person. Another time it was because he brought up not giving up when clearly I have. And today we just began yelling!"
