Third Person's POV

Six months ago...

"Good morning,"

Jungkook felt his heart stop as he heard a sweet voice that is very familiar to him, he turned his head to where the sound is and saw a young boy with a small frame standing in front of the counter. The taller one can't see his face.

"Can I have caramel macchiato, please."

He stood up ignoring the weird gaze from Taehyung, heart pounding in his chest, eyes not leaving the smaller male as he slowly walked towards him, he could hear his own heart beat as he gets closer.

He stood in there silently, acting as if he was checking the displayed pastries before he glances over the smaller male. Jungkook suddenly felt the time has stopped for a second as he stared at younger's face and felt a familiar feeling inside his chest when he realized it was really Jimin.

"Are you new here?" The worker in front of him asked. Jimin gave her a small and sincere smile that Jungkook adore the most.

"Yeah, we just moved here last month." He answered tone sweet and soft.

"Where did you come from?"

"Busan." He answered, Jimin frowned because felt like someone is staring at him, he shifted his gaze and looked at the man beside him, but the said man looks away.

"Here is your order." Jimin looks away and stared at the employee instead and took the coffee in his hand, "Thank you. I'll go ahead." The smaller waves a goodbye and he secretly glance back at the taller boy but failed to see his face.

Jimin felt himself being followed. He nervously looked behind his back but there is no one. He bit his lower lip and scanned the place again, heart racing violently against his ribcage.

"Maybe I'm just being paranoid." He mumbled assuring himself and resumes walking, ignoring the fear he felt earlier.

Little did he know, he wasn't being paranoid.

He was being followed.

He was being tailed by someone. Someone from his past.

Since the day, Jungkook saw him. He always tails him and watched him from afar.

Wishing that, he could stay close to him, that he could hold him into his arms securely and tell him how he misses him every day, how much he meant to him and how he was sorry for what he did.

But Jungkook knew he can't. . .

Jimin hates him and Jungkook deserves it.

A month later, Jungkook decided to stop tailing him. He decided to stay out of his life just like what he did before.

But fate brought them together again, it was raining heavily, he was standing from a far, watching how Jimin stayed there, glued on his spot while observing other people as they look out for a shelter.

"Stupid." Jungkook mumbled and walked towards the smaller male's direction.

When their eyes meet. . .

The only thing that Jungkook wanted to do is pull him into his arms and never let him go ever again. . .

"I'm Park Jimin,"

I know. . .

"...you are?"

Jungkook, your ex-boyfriend, you despised.

Instead he answered,

"Someone who isn't part of your life anymore."

Jungkook left the younger that night and promised, he would stay away from him and never show himself again.

Because he's afraid that he will remember him, Jungkook doesn't want him to regain his memory back. He doesn't want Jimin to get hurt again. Jungkook can't stand to see him getting hurt again.

But destiny brings them together again. . .

Jungkook didn't expect that he would see Jimin again, sitting alone inside an abandoned place, hugging himself, trembling with fear making Jungkook's heart shattered in pieces, he badly wants to give him a tight embrace and make him feel safe in his arms.

"Jungkook!" Taehyung shouts, expression annoyed, Jungkook glared at him, he was standing in front of Jungkook, hands on his hips.

"You're spacing out again, bro." He says and the latter looks away, completely ignoring the other, Taehyung mentally rolled his eyes.

"Look, I'm sorry okay? Let's be friends again, pretty please." Taehyung says tone soft, blinking cutely at Jungkook but his expression fell down because Jungkook looks like he doesn't care at all, the latter huff in annoyance.

"I let you punch me that day but you still refuse to be my friend again?" Taehyung spat tone laced with sadness.

"What do you want?" Jungkook asked, shifting his gaze to Taehyung. The latter's eyes lit up, "Be your friend again." He answered quickly and Jungkook crack a smile.

"Since we are friends now, let's go!" He said dragging him out of their hideout, the latter groans and pushed his friend off him.

"I'm not in the mood."

"Don't make excuses, you need to get laid, it's been a while." Jungkook frowned and looked at Taehyung curiously.

"When did you become interested in my sex life?"

*_*_

It's been two days since they talked to each other and Jimin hadn't seen him after their conversation that night, a sighed escaped from his lips.

Jimin's class ended and asked Seokjin if he can fetch him and latter agreed. Jimin knew he's a busy person considering he's working in a well known company but he doesn't have any choice.

Namjoon had instructed his brother to drive Jimin home after classes but it looks like Jungkook doesn't like the idea or is it because Jimin didn't contact him at all, to inform him that his class ended and he needs him to drive him home.

But the younger feels like Jungkook is ignoring him on purpose considering Namjoon gave him his number and gave him his schedule which Jimin find funny at first.

"Hey," He heard a voice snapping his thought.

"Hi," The younger greets and they shared a small. Jimin noticed how exhausted the older looks and Jimin felt bad.

"I'm sorry." The latter shook his head and ruffles the younger's hair. They both went inside the car and Seokjin starts the engine and drive off.

"Seokjin," Jimin trailed off and the older notices the younger's hesitation, he glance at Jimin and gave him a warm smile, encouraging him to continue.

"N-nothing," He says and looked outside the window instead. If he wants to know more about Jungkook, he needs to do it on his own and not bother other people.

"Are you sure? You can ask me anything."

"It's nothing."

"Oh right, you are staying at Jungkook's place for about three weeks because I don't want you to be alone in my apartment." Jimin glances at the older with large eyes. Jungkook clearly doesn't like him. He is ignoring Jimin intentionally but he also confuses the hell out of him and needs to know more about him. Jimin doesn't know what to feel hearing the news from Seokjin, he was having a mix emotion.

"My boss told me yesterday that we are leaving the country and I forgot to tell you. I'm sorry, Jimin." Jimin played the hem of his shirt, looking down.

"I-it's okay, Seokjin. B-but why Jungkook?" He mentally scolds himself for stuttering.

"Because, Namjoon, doesn't always stay at home Jimin. I asked him first but he advised me to let you stay at his brother." Seokjin turned his head on the younger, "Why did you asked? You don't like Jungkook?" He asked tone laced with curiosity.

"Y-yes, I mean, no? I don't know." Jimin said unsure, Seokjin chuckles at his cuteness.

"You don't have to worry about Jungkook. I think he cares about you." Jimin frowned, still looking down.

"He cares about me?" He asked tone laced with amusement.

"Yeah, I think so, I can see it through his eyes." A smile spread across the younger's lips. Jimin doesn't know why but he felt his heart warms, knowing that Jungkook cares about him.

They stayed silent after that.
