[a]"hey, little bear" jungkook coos as the five year old squeals when the raven haired carried the little boy up. "Dada!" jeonghan giggles uncontrollably as jungkook leaves little pecks on his cute face.
"did you miss dada, hannie?" jungkook asks as a grin on his face appear. "hmm, i missed dada!" the little boy confirms as he cutely nodded his head, his small hands firmly holding the man's neck tightly. "hm, i missed my little hannie too but do you know who misses you more?" jungkook softly squeezes the boy in arms.
"taetae!" jungkook smiles and sets the little boy down on the baby seat at the back and put on the seat belt. "let's go to taetae!" the raven giggles. It's ten minutes later that jungkook finally parks in front of his house, getting out and helping little jeonghannie out of his seat, jungkook holds the boy's hand and to the front entrance, one hand holding the baby's backpack.
"taetae at home?" the little boy says as jungkook opens the door to home, the raven hums with a small smile.
"We're Home!" jungkook announces as he closes the front door and helps the little boy take off his cute pair of shoes. "At the Kitchen!" they hear a familiar voice, coming from the kitchen and jeonghan squeals at his favorite caregiver's voice and rushes towards where the voice where. "hey, hannie" taehyung grins as he saw the five year old, he kneels down and embraces jeonghan, leaving butterfly kisses around the boy's cheeks, like what jungkook did.
"dada drove me home today, hannie is very happy!" taehyung giggles with little jeonghan.
"hmm, you've been complaining about your dada not picking you up, so taetae convinced him" the said male leans against the entrance of the kitchen, taehyung notices and smiles. "hey" taehyung softly says. jungkook heartbeat fastens as he saw the smile but he ignores it.
"hey, when did you arrive?" the raven asks, "I arrived an hour ago and checked the fridge, but it's empty so i did some grocery, I also bought some take out" taehyung stands up, both male watches as jeonghan searches for a snack and run out of the kitchen. jungkook looks away as his cheeks reddens from embarrassment.
"i get busy a lot of times you know, that's why i hired you" jungkook shrugs as he avoids taehyung's stare, he could hear his heart beating again. "even though i'm here just for hannie you must take care of yourself, what if i'm busy with work and you get sick, who's gonna take care of jeonghan?"
"get a lot of groceries too, because you have jeonghan now, you have a little boy now" taehyung sighs as he continues to organize the groceries he bought. "i have you to take care of me" jungkook says lightly and taehyung softly smiles.
"hm. i have two kids to take care of now" taehyung commented. then it's silent.
"i was thinking—" the caregiver starts, he carefully looks at jungkook. "what is it?" the younger looks curious now. " finding someone, you know, there are a lot of girls i know that adores kids, they are kind and pretty, one of them would be perfect for you"
"i can't be here all the time you know?, starting next week i'm going to be really busy, i might not have time to take care of jeonghan, maybe jin hyu—"
"no." taehyung purses his lips. he looks up at the younger, his hands on the marbled table.
jungkook feels his heart aches and numb. he knows taehyung doesn't feel the same way about him. it's fine, it's whatever. however, the look on jungkook makes taehyung wince. he should've know better. "i'm sorry."
"i–i don't want to" jungkook whispers, the noise coming from jeonghan's favorite cartoon show could be heard. "it's not that i can't. i–just -don't want to"
"gguk" taehyung sighs, as he feels his eyes tearing up. "i know, i'm being selfish and stubborn, but i–, i want it to be you. you know?, i promised myself that if it's not you... then— then i would just live alone, with jeonghan" jungkook gives taehyung a forced smile, the younger sighs, "but, i couldn't have you, so, it's no one else right now, unless... unless you want to... try" jungkook looks up at him with pleading eyes.
taehyung's heart clenches, it feels like they were back at the past, where jungkook doesn't have jeonghan yet. it feels similar. it was the end of the class and they were at the back of the school grounds, where jungkook had confessed, where taehyung broke jungkook's heart. it's cruel. but jungkook refuse to be apart from the elder's life.
so. jungkook stayed, with a broken heart, as a friend. a bestfriend.
"i'm so sorry." taehyung looks down as soon as he saw jungkook's eyes starting to get teary. "yeah. i– i know." the younger stutters, he puts his hands onto his slacks pockets and,"i'll just –i'll just go check up on jeonghan"
jungkook shakes his head lightly, 'he waited for years, and confessing now doesn't make a change" the younger sniffs, as he walks past his child and straight to his bedroom, and if taehyung hears jungkook's cry, nobody talks about it.
"gguk?" jungkook hears a familiar voice and he looks at the side, it's namjoon-hyung. "just drink all your sorrows away, bud" yoongi pats his back from the other side of the counter.
"ah. tae came by?" namjoon nodded his head and yoongi passes him a drink. "i was on my way to pick up jeonghan today and tae texted me he would come by. the house." jungkook slurs as he puts the glass down and asks for another one.
"i confessed. for the fifth time!" jungkook giggles, his vision blurs."and guess what, —i got rejected again" his friends sighs.
"jungkook-ah, stop it now, hm, it's just going to hurt you" jin says as jimin agrees with him. the blonde frowns when yoongi makes another glass for jungkook.
the younger giggles,"what's the point of stopping now?, i love him, i loooove taehyung" jungkook is drunk but everyone knows that those were his sober thoughts he kept on pushing away.
"we don't understand you, gguk" hoseok sighs as he stares at the drunken boy, "it's been long since you liked tae"
"eight. it's eight years and i. am. still. inlove. with him, but i can't seem to let him go. taehyung has his own life, his fucking living it, i'm happy jeonghan's in it, i'm happy his got all of you in it. i'm just a little saddened that it's not me he's living his life with, don't get me wrong, i'm thankful that taehyung decides to keep me around, you know?" jungkook covers his face between his crossed arms at the top of the table.
"are you really never letting go?" jimin sadly smiles as he watches jungkook's shoulders shake. yoongi, hoseok, jin and namjoon watches too, there heart aching, seeing the younger.
"hm. no. i'll keep on holding onto that love until my last breath" jungkook sobs.
no ones at fault though. jungkook's inlove with taehyung, and taehyung simply doesn't feel the same way at jungkook. their friends never intervene as they can't change jungkook not to have feelings for the said elder and there friends can't force taehyung to suddenly feel the same way for the younger. simply, they aren't meant to be.
