jimin sighed as he waited for yoongi and seokjin to text back.

deciding that jungkook was more important than his disappointment in taehyung, he sent a text to the boy he had gotten closest to when he had first made the team.

✧
listen i'm still mad but i need to ask something

✧
is jungkook okay

taehyung
right, i get it.

taehyung
how am i supposed to know?

✧
you used to be really close when i first joined

taehyung
true.

✧
i just wanted to know his relationship with his brother

taehyung
listen, no offense, but if jungkook wanted you to know he would've told you.

✧
he'll never tell me

✧
jungkook doesn't like me in the least so he wouldn't even bother telling me about the important things in his life, much less anything serious

taehyung
why do you care so much?

taehyung
he's only ever been a jerk to you.

✧
because i love him

✧
and there's always a reason to everything

taehyung
jimin, you could do so much better.

taehyung
be with someone like namjoon.

✧
i don't want better

✧
i just want to make sure the person i love is okay

taehyung
fine.

taehyung
their relationship is fucked.

taehyung
jungkook didn't want to play volleyball so his brother started threatening him.

taehyung
then when he was in middle school and lost the last game of the season his brother started hitting him to train.

jimin
he used to hit him?

taehyung
yeah, but now he beats the shit out of him whenever he doesn't train enough, or isn't good enough or isn't fast enough.

✧
You knew this all along and you still threatened to kick him off the team?

✧
His brother would probably literally kill him.

taehyung
it was for you.

✧
Don't.

✧
That's the stupidest shit i've ever heard.

taehyung
jimin, i'm sorry.
