Chapter Twenty Four

Third Person's POV



Past; October 6th, 2016


1:01 p.m


"You accepted his marriage proposal?" Kai asked the younger male. Jimin nodded his head and he was about to show his finger where he had his ring on but his eyes widens and suddenly remembers he removes the ring when he showered and forgot to put it on back.


"Did you already forgot you still have problem in your relationship?" His attention went back to the other male. Jimin furrowed his brows and Kai crosses his arms over his chest, expression not amuse, realization hit the younger male.


"You really forgot, huh?" Kai asks but Jimin stayed silent.

"You should've told him to fix his attitude before he decided to ask you to marry him. He always over think everything, he gets jealous over nothing, pushing your friends away from you. He literally attacked everyone, who would want to stay as your friend? You're lucky I'm still here for you." Jimin smile not reaching his eyes.

"He's just scared. That's all." Jimin mumbled under his breath.

"Scared of what? Losing you? If he has trust on you, he wouldn't be scared. Tell him to build trust first before marrying you." Kai says tone bitter while giving Jimin a pointed look.




"It didn't happen again so it's okay." Kai laughed at the younger one.



"It didn't happen again because you're not hanging with us anymore, what do you expect?You're kind of funny you know? Are you even using your head?" Kai snapped out, Jimin sighs and bit his lower lip nervously, Kai was right. Everything went peaceful when he started not hanging out with them anymore.


"Fix your issue first before everything, I'm telling you, he'll be more obsessed and possessive of you once you're already tied to him. You're still boyfriends yet he's acting like that, he's always around you, he's watching you, he's everywhere, he's controlling you, it's not healthy, aren't you scared?" He asked tone worried. Jungkook wasn't violent, he's a little possessive but he never once hurt the smaller male. Jimin looked down and fist clenching.

"I want to clarify things, Jungkook is not controlling me at all, he is just a little posessive and love me a little too much, that's all." Jimin says tone sad and paused for a moment, "... and we already talked about that but I felt guilty and take back what I said." Jimin says tone sad.

"That's exactly the problem, you're too nice." Jimin inhaled sharply and looks away.

"What should I do? I tried to explain things to him but it didn't end well." Jimin blurted out.

"Then explain it to him again." Kai replied.

"What if he'll get mad again? Break up with me? Easier said than done." Jimin says looking back at the other male.

"Jungkook will break up with you?" Kai laughs, "It's more convincing if you're the first one to break things off with him but Jungkook? Nah, he's so in love with you to let that happen." Kai continued. Jimin's phone suddenly vibrates, he grab his phone that was placed on the table and checks the caller ID.


It was Jungkook.



"See that's what I'm telling you." Kai said. Jimin turned his phone into a silent mode and places it inside his bag.


"Why aren't you answering him?" Kai asked grinning.


"I told him, I was at home, I didn't inform him about meeting you today. If I answer his call and tell him about this, it's either he'll fetch me or ask me to go home." Jimin says face sad, Kai's heart drop, pitying his friend. Kai held the smaller male's hand and squeeze it lightly, they both look at each other and shared a sincere smile. Kai frown when he felt suddenly strange, he look at different direction and sees him.



"I think it's the first option." Jimin frowned and look over the direction Kai is looking and when he turned around he sees Jungkook outside the glass wall, phone in his hand still trying to call him. Jimin felt his heart sank in disappointment.



"I'll go ahead." Kai excused himself and let go of the younger hand but Jimin immediately turned to look at him and grab his wrist shaking his head.


"I'll talk to him, just stay." Jimin pleaded.


"I don't want to get in fight with him. Let's just talk later, I promise." Jimin gave him a small and sad smile before nodding his head.


Kai stood up and walked towards the door and ran into Jungkook. He purposely bumped into him and they both stop before throwing each other a look.


"Don't wait until the time come Jimin leaves you because he's tired of you, fix that attitude of yours before it's too late." Kai warned before walking past him but Jungkook grab his arm to make Kai face him again.


"What did you say?" Jungkook asked face darkened. Shivers ran down across the latter's spine but he ignores it and harshly removed Jungkook's hand from holding him. Kai glared at him.


"You know damn well what I'm saying, Jungkook." Kai said before walking outside the restaurant. Jungkook frowned and look at the smaller male suspiciously.


"Are you following me?" Jimin asks annoyed tone rough as soon as Jungkook got closer, Jungkook frown at his accusation.



"I didn't. I was about to meet Namjoon and saw you here. Why are you using that tone to me? Are you angry because I ruined your date with him?" Jungkook retorts, Jimin rolled his eyes.


"I thought you said you're chilling at home? Now explain why you didn't even texted me that you're gonna meet that guy and purposely ignored my calls!" Jungkook ask half-shouting trying so hard to keep his voice calm, Jimin shook his head in annoyance and sighs, he stood up and grabbed his bag before walking past the other male, Jungkook scoffed before following him.

"Jimin, stop!" Jungkook says tailing the latter behind, Jimin walked up faster and was about to stop a taxi but the other male was quick to grab him and yank him towards the alleyway. Jimin curses under his breath, twisting his wrist for Jungkook to let him go.


"Let's go home and talk." Jimin keep on twisting his wrist and Jungkook finally let go of him, "What's with that attitude, huh? Are you really that upset?" Jungkook mocked.




"I'm not going with you." Jimin response and with that Jungkook could feel the jealousy swelling up inside him, without so much thought he grabbed the smaller male's arm tightly. Jimin winces and looked up at him angrily but his face fell.

His heart feels like it stops as soon as their eyes met.

The look he's giving me right now, it reminded me of my father...

It was very similar on how he looks at my mom.


They looked dangerous and scary.


It gives me back the painful memories that I desperately want to forget...



"Why? You're going with Kai instead?" He snaps bringing back Jimin into the reality, Jungkook smiled, "Oh, right. You don't even want him to leave in the first place right? You even held into him, preventing him from going anywhere." He continued voice sarcastic. Jimin gulped and looks away.


"W-we are just catching up and it's clearly none of your business." He mumbled under his breath.

"It is, I'm your boyfriend--" Jimin raises his hand as if stopping Jungkook from talking, he doesn't want to listen to him anymore.


"Stop, shut up." Jimin says voice tired, Jungkook's eyes landed on his hand and notices that the younger male didn't use his ring.


"You're not even wearing our engagement ring." Jungkook muttered eyes filled with disappointment and drop his hand, Jimin didn't catch it at first but when he did his heart clenches.


Jungkook's phone suddenly rang, he pull out his phone and looks at different direction.


"Okay, I'm heading there." Jungkook says before looking back at the latter, he grabbed Jimin's wrist softly and dragged him.


They both waited for a Taxi to stop. Afterwards, Jungkook opened the door for Jimin to get him inside then he instructed the driver to drive Jimin home and even pay for it. Jimin had his eyes on the other male but Jungkook intentionally ignored him, refusing to meet his eyes until the car drove away.



Jimin sighs heavily, trying his best to not cry inside the cab.



***

Namjoon arched his brow, just earlier they were talking about the date of the wedding but now Jungkook's mind is pre occupied once again.


"Jungkook-ah, what's wrong?" Jungkook sighs and looked at his brother with bothered expression.

"Jimin and I had a small fight." He replied voice laced with sadness.


"Already?" Jungkook gave him a tight smile and nodded his head.

"We had a heated argument earlier, all I want was to know why he lied to me. I just saw him earlier with Kai. He's meeting other people behind my back." Namjoon mentally rolled his eyes at the stupidity of his younger brother.


"I know you're possessive about the things you like but Jimin is not a thing Jungkook, he's a human and what's wrong with meeting other people? He might be your boyfriend but you don't own him, maybe his heart but not his life." Namjoon pointed out, giving some senses into his idiot brother.

"Jimin is so naïve, he get easily attach to people, it doesn't also help that, everyone likes him, he's oblivious, he doesn't realize how he affects them and made them fall for him. I've been always so bothered about it since then, even before we started dating each other but I just kept it to myself." Jungkook tells him.

"But I lost it, when his bestfriend confessed, Jimin's first love." He added bitterly.


"First love is nothing, you're the love of his life now." Namjoon said face suddenly fell and felt bad knowing that his brother has reason for it.

"I know that, I just couldn't control myself sometimes." Jungkook said small smile in his lips.


"You should control yourself don't make him feel as if you're controlling over his life." Namjoon says concern.


"I swear things would be different once we're already married. By that time, he has already my surname, everyone would address him as Jeon Jimin." Jungkook says, lips twitching upward forming into a genuine smile, "By that time, I could fully claim Jimin as mine and have no reason to be jealous anymore, I'm already his husband and he's tied to me for the rest of our lives." He continued tone laced with nothing but pure happiness. Namjoon smiled faintly at the sight, amused how big Jungkook's love is for Jimin.


"You really love him."

"He snatches my heart even before knowing him," Jungkook smiled weakly and look up at Namjoon, "He'll be my first and my last." He added tone sincere.




***


Jungkook is now driving home after he and Namjoon talked about things regarding about his plan for their wedding.


January 23, 2015... It was the day where, destiny brought them together.


They started of as a friend after knowing they both attend the same School. Everything went slow and they didn't rush anything, they ended their friendship when Jimin confessed after being friends for more than six months.




The confession happened on August first of 2015 where Jimin got jealous over a girl that he assumed Jungkook was flirting with.


Bringing back the memories of how they met, fell in love, started of as a friends and now already a couple brings a smile on his face.


Jungkook wanted to held the wedding next year, it will be on January 23, 2017. He was suppose to meet Jimin after he and his brother talked to inform him about it and was positive that the younger would love the date of their marriage but the argument happened.

He was really upset.

Jungkook freezes on his place when he saw Jimin outside of his house sitting on the floor head hang low and hugging his knees as he waits for him.

Jungkook frowned and walked up towards the younger male, he crouched down and Jimin perked up and slowly looked up, nose and cheeks red.

"What are you doing?" Jungkook asked tone soft and concern, "Waiting for you." Jimin mumbled softly.

"You must be cold, let's get inside." Jungkook muttered before placing his hands on his both arms and help him to stand up.

Jungkook brought the smaller male inside his house. He closed the door behind him and walked up with Jimin behind his back. The shorter male suddenly stops walking which made Jungkook turned to look at him.


"Fuck," The other male cursed and guide Jimin immediately on the couch. He made the smaller male leaned forward and rushed towards the bathroom to get some tissues.


"It's happening again, you shouldn't have waited for me." Jungkook says as he cupped Jimin's cheek and tilt his head to side to make him look at him and wiped off the blood that was dripping down his nose.


"I'm sorry." Jimin says which made Jungkook heart warms. "I'm not mad, annoyed yes but I can't be mad at you." Jimin smiled.



"Isn't that just the same thing?" Jimin asked teasingly and Jungkook smiled cheekily, "Of course it's not." He replied which made Jimin chuckling.



They both lying down on the bed, cuddling each other while Jungkook looking down admiring his boyfriend's beauty.



"About the ring, I forgot to put it back on after I showered. It wasn't intentional, I know it was so stupid of me but--" Jungkook cuts in.



"Ssh, it's okay, now. I overreacted, it wasn't your fault." Jimin's heart melts and snuggle closer and hide his face on the crook of Jungkook's neck, giving him a light kiss.


"Trust me." Jimin mumbled under his breath, "Please trust me, Jungkook-ah." He pleaded tone laced with sadness, a weak smile started to form in the latter's lips.


"I trust you."


It's already seven in the evening when the smaller male woke up, he removes Jungkook's hands that was wrapped on him and walk out from the room.



He walk towards the terrace and stayed there, feeling how the fresh air hit his face and watch the beautiful view in front of him.



Jimin's expression fell when he remembers the scene from earlier.



The look that Jungkook gave me earlier, reminds me of my father. I'm starting to see my father in him, as much as I want to deny it, I can't because it was the truth and that's what I truly feel.



My father gets jealous easily and was abusive towards mom, mom can't leave him because of the reason she loves him. She loves him with all his heart.


Until one day their fight worsened, dad accidentally killed mom, he regretted his actions and killed himself afterwards.



If only mom had left him, none of that happened. Maybe she's still with us leaving dad to rot in jail.


Jimin wiped of his tears and sighs,



I hate this feeling, I know Jungkook wouldn't hurt me, I know that but...


Jungkook reminded me of him and I don't want that.


Jungkook smiled upon seeing his lover, standing there, using his white-shirt, that's too big for him, shoulder exposed.

Jungkook slowly wrapped his arms around Jimin and kisses his exposed shoulder. Jimin held Jungkook's arms and Jimin pressed his eyes shut tightly.

I don't want to experience what my parents gone through.


My father doesn't have trust in my mom causing their relationship to crumble in a blink of an eye.

I want Jungkook to have fully trust in me because I don't want our relationship to get destroyed by it.


I love Jungkook but...


Love is nothing without it.
