9. LOVE

Jungkook opened the door happily, excited to see the older, although he had to keep his distance, he still enjoyed having the older around. The door swung open and Jungkook couldn't breathe. Taehyung stood there, Jimin's tiny face clutched in his hands. To someone else it would have looked something sexual but Jungkook new better. Jimin's eyes found his.

"Jungkook...it's not what it looks like..."

"oh you are here kookie!" Taehyung said, his tone so cold Jungkook wanted to run. "Oh Jimin-ah, you think Kookie will think we have something going on. Such a fool you are. You want to know what he is feeling right now. You want me tell him Kookie?"

Neither of the boys said anything, so Taehyung continued, "He is feeling scared. Scared not because I found you here in my boyfriend's dorm, the person who loves him, no he's scared as to what I'll do to you. He's scared because he has never seen me like this, losing control. I have always been the golden boy in his eyes, but do you wanna know the most fun fact, even after seeing us like this he still loves us both, don't you love?"

Jimin and Jungkook both had their eyes wide open, a total surprise shining in their eyes. Taehyung looked at both of their expressions and started laughing, "Oh god! You didn't knew that? Even after that kiss you shared you didn't know you were in love." Taehyung was now behind the Jungkook, holding his weight as he digested the new information, but Jimin had no support as he fell to the floor.

"Oh Jimin-ah c'mon love don't be so dramatic. The real drama is yet to come. So now that all of us are here and Jungkook finally has seen this side of me, we might as well hear your confession."

Jimin just looked up at Taehyung his eyes lifeless. No words came out of his mouth, Taehyung was infuriated by the silence.

"Jimin-ah seems like you don't value your life so much. But what if it's sweet Kookie's life on the line then what?" The red haired male wondered out loud, kissing down the younger's throat.

"You wouldn't dare!" Jimin said he's voice laced with fear.

"You wanna see?" Taehyung retrieved a small knife from his back pocket and flipped it open, pulling Jungkook closer he held the knife to his throat. Jungkook's breath hitched, he had been observing the whole exchange between the two olders, but he had never thought Taehyung would use him as bait. "Still not convinced?" Taehyung pulled Jungkook against him burrowing his face in the younger's neck, he ran his tongue against the shell of his ears, as he dug the knife deeper. A trickle of blood made its way down Jungkook's neck.

"Taehyung no. Please no. He has nothing to do with this, let him go."

"That's not what I asked. Just say it, say that you fucking killed my brother!" Taehyung's voice boomed through the apartment, Jungkook tensed at the sentence, he could not believe, he would not believe that his Jimin, the sweet boy he had met had killed someone, the whole idea was so ridiculous.

"Taehyung, that is not..."

"I don't want any explanations, love. Just admit it and we will all be on our way."

"Taehyung can you just shut up and hear me out for once. Please Tae I beg you."

"I'm not falling for it again Jimin-ah. No explanations you could give me is gonna make me forgive you. You took away the only family I had left. You broke my trust, you ruined everything." Taehyung shouted, "Everything."

" You are going to hear me out." Jimin said backing away towards the shelf.

" Or what Jimin-ah? What will you do?" Jimin took out the gun from the drawer, he had hidden it into just yesterday. "You are gonna shoot me with your little toy?"

"No of course not, Taehyungie. You know I love you too much for that." Jimin said, pointing to his own heart.

"No!" Taehyung shouted as he ran towards Jimin as he pulled the trigger. The sound of gunshot rang all around them. "Jimin-ah." He craddlef the older's body to against himself. Taehyung had managed to derail the gun, the bullet had missed his heart, but hit him in the shoulder.

"Taehyung you need to believe me... I ... I...did not kill your brother. I.. didn't kill JB." Jimin said, reaching out to the youngers cheek but it fell off before it could reach, Jimin had lost his consciousness. Taehyung cried and cried and that's when he realised how much Jimin meant to him.

The medics had taken away Jimin after Jungkook, who was coherent enough, called an ambulance. He hadn't moved from his place his shirt coloured with the older's blood, his face was stained with blood too, as he had tried to wipe away his tears but instead he had made his face bloody. But he had stopped feeling anything, numb, that's how his whole body was.

Somewhere in the background he heard a phone ringing, it rang on till it went silent. It started ringing again when he realised it might be something related to Jimin.

He put his phone to his ears, "Tae come over to the hospital, it's an emergency. I know you are going through alot together but I need you here, Jimin needs you-"

"I'm on my way." He said not bothering about the blood on his face or his shirt. Clutching his car keys he ran to the parking lot.

All through the ride Taehyung could only think of all the good times he spent with Jimin, how they had been soulmates before any of this happened.

Don't worry Jimin-ah I'm coming for you.
