22:It's Time

Author POV
"You're going to Itaewon?" Jimin received a news that Eunwoo will be shooting a film for his friends YouTube channel.
It was going to be a short series of it but the shoot was at Itaewon. Jimin was happy for him but he was going to miss the taller.
"Make sure you call me okay?"
"Of course I will. You can ask Jungkook to accompany you Jimin" Eunwoo chuckles. Jimin rolls his eyes.
"I don't need him Eunu" Eunwoo half-smiles, knowing that's not the truth.

Flashback.
Eunwoo came downstairs to check on Jimin but he saw that he was still talking to Jungkook so he didn't bother.
But Jimin's words made him stop his track.

"I'm sorry, I should stop.."
"I stil love you Jungkook." Jimin looks at him sadly.
"I never stopped. But I wish I did" Eunwoo's eyes widen. He lean closer to the wall and listens.
"It's because of Eunwoo right?" Jimin nods.
"It's not fair for him. I know that. I love him so much. He's done so much for me, I gave him my heart"

Does that mean...he only dated me because he wanted to move on from Jungkook? And nothing more?

Eunwoo saw the two played with each other after the little argument. It made Eunwoo insecure about himself.
"Have I not made Jimin happy? Has he been hiding his pain all this time?" He thought. He gulped. He felt sick.
"I need to leave" He ran upstairs when he saw the two wanting to get in.
He watches Jungkook leave at his bedroom window. He saw the two hugging each other.
And he saw Jimin kiss the taller's cheek.

Now don't get him wrong. He knows that Jimin was very affectionate towards everyone so Eunwoo wouldn't mind if Jimin kissed Taehyung and Seokjin. But Jungkook?
Jungkook had not only been Jimin's best friend, but he was also the smaller's first crush.
And Eunwoo can't help but overthink everything.
It didn't help that Jungkook was more flirty than ever. The taller would always come and see Jimin whenever he could and the two would always end up having lunch together or having a reading session together.

"We're just friends Eunu" Eunwoo would always ask Jimin about his day and sometimes slip up his jealousy, to which it did not go unnoticed by Jimin.
"I-I know that, I was just-" Jimin cuts him off with a kiss on the lips.
"Trust me Eunu, I don't have feelings for him"

And Eunwoo would believe him.

But it was as if everyday, whenever Jungkook came, Jimin would smile brightly like the sun. Eunwoo has never seen Jimin this happy. It was then the taller realized that, even with their early stage of them dating, it has always been
Jungkook, Jungkook, Jungkook. It was not about him. That hurt Eunwoo.
He laughs bitterly. Jimin was sleeping while he was drinking his water.
"I'm so stupid.." He mumbles. He dranks the last cup of water before going upstairs.
He saw Jimin sleeping soundly and that made him smile.
"Oh Jimin.." Eunwoo sits at the edge of the bed. His hand travelled slowly at Jimin's hair before stroking them softly.
"Do I really have you my love? Or....does Jungkook have you?" Eunwoo's eyes watered.

"Do you even love me?"

Flashback ends.

"Eunu, are you okay?" Jimin panics when he sees the taller cried unexpectedly.
"Eunu? Eunu! Hey! Talk to me!" Eunwoo snapped out his thoughts and looks at Jimin.
"H-Huh? What?"
"Why are you crying Eunu? Are you hurt?" Eunwoo fake-smiles and nods.
"I'm fine." He removes Jimin's hand from his cheek and wraps his arm around Jimin's waist.

"I just..need a hug.." He closes his eyes.
"Please.." Jimin doesn't understand what was going on. But he knew that his boyfriend needed it.
So he hugs him. Eunwoo sighs in content, the warmth of Jimin's body with the sweet scent of strawberries on his neck made him feel in heaven.
"Aren't you going to be late Eunu-" Eunwoo tightens his hold.
"Shh" he shushes the smaller.

I know what to do now..

And I'll hate every single of it...

"Let me stay with you longer my love and then...I'll let you go.." Jimin wishes he could ask what was going on. Because Eunwoo sounded desperate yet broken. It made Jimin worry.
But Eunwoo doesn't like to be forced so Jimin only smiles softly.
"Okay Eunu" the taller bit his lip, trying not to cry as he felt Jimin kiss his head.
"I'll let you stay longer.."

(Let's skip to 3 days after)
"Jungkook? Don't you to a shoot today?" Eunwoo had left and now Jimin was alone. Or so he thought.
Jungkook was infront of him, holding a bouquet of flowers.
"Hi Jimin"
"Don't hi me, don't you have work?"
"It's my break time"
"And you came here instead?" Jungkook nods. Jimin rolls his eyes and looks down at the flowers.
"What's this for?"
"It's for you. You seem to like flowers so much so I thought I should buy some"

It was hard for Jungkook to choose since he wanted to know what the names of the flowers were.

"Excuse me sir, what do you call these?"
"Young man, have you been living under a rock? These are called roses"
"Oh...sorry, I'm dyslexic"
"Oh my! How insensitive of me! Come come! I'll teach you the names!"

Thankfully, the owner of the place was kind enough to tell him each of the names.

"So apparently, this one is called sunflower, this one is called tulips and this one is white rose" Jimin found it cute.
"If you happen to see one of these, what would you have called it?" Jimin asked.
"Honestly...I would have called it, Mustard (Sunflower), Radish (tulips) and Cauliflower cloud(white rose)" the smaller instantly burst out laughing. Jungkook smiled sheepishly and hands out the bouquet.
"Here..I hope you like it" Jimin giggles and nods.
"I do. Hey, how long is your break?"
"Not sure, it depends on my auntie calling me"
"Okay..then..can you accompany me to buy some books? I heard they have a good sale"

"You're so cheap"
"I'm trying to save money for food dumbass"
"Fine.."

The two went and arrived at Prince Books. Even after a long time, Jimin absolutely loved how simple and nostalgic the place was. Especially the smell of the books inside.
"Smell the fresh books Jungkook-ah" Jungkook smells it.
"Hm..smells like ramen.."
"Oh yeah, I bought ramen for us to eat"
Jungkook never realized this but he had never been book shopping with Jimin. It was only him that went to buy it during high school. So, having this moment infront of him, made him smile happily. Jimin looked pretty as he picked out the books he wanted.

"Why are you buying so much?" Jimin giggles.
"Well..today Eunu looked sad for some reason and I know he's at Itaewon right now but I thought I should buy him the book he wanted for his birthday! Or maybe I should call him and tell him what the book is like?" Jimin thoughts for awhile, pursing his lips. He looks at Jungkook and said "What do you think Kookie?"
Jungkook gulps.

There was a reason why he came today.

Flashback.
Cafe
"Hey dude, you call me?" Eunwoo nods and asked Jungkook to sit down.
"What's this about? Are you nervous?" He shook his head.
"I'm not..I'm..I'm.." Jungkook looks at him worriedly. Eunwoo looked pale like white snow and his lips were chapped.
"What's wrong Eunwoo are you really okay-"
"You still love Jimin right?"

Jungkook's heart drops.

"I.." He lets our a nervous laugh.
"N-No I don't"
"I'm not mad Jungkook" Eunwoo smiles sadly.
"I actually have a favor to ask" at that, Jungkook can't help but think that Eunwoo was going to tell him that he can't meet Jimin. Or he may have watched too many k-dramas.
"What is it..if you want me to stop seeing Jimin, okay fine. But at least let call him-" Eunwoo chuckles.
"It's not that Jungkook. Gosh, you need to stop watching K-dramas"

"Oh" Jungkook felt embarrassed.
"Then..what is it?"
Eunwoo looked he was going to cry again, his eyes were tired and his body felt drained.
"I've been thinking a lot about it and I know it has come to this point." Eunwoo gulps.
"I know I'm suppose to fight for our love but I think this is the best option" Eunwoo looks at Jungkook and smiles sadly

"Jungkook-ah.."

"Yes?" A tear escape from Eunwoo's eyes.

"Please make Jimin love you again"
