Chapter 20;
Finally

Yoongi sprawled himself on the couch as he watched Jimin and Hoseok play Mario Kart 8 together. He would sometimes chuckle when one of them would scream when being hit with an item like a shell or slip on a random banana. Jimin would scream the most because he sucks at the game.

"That's bullshit! How the fuck did you get a blue shell?!" Jimin screamed, clutching onto the control as he smiled widely.

Hoseok returned the smile. "Obviously from the rainbow cube." Jimin snorted.

"Rainbow cube?" Yoongi chuckled, finding Hoseok's choice of words funny. Jimin smiled back at him, finding his lover cute. Hoseok rolled his eyes but still smiled.

"Yes, rainbow cube,"

And with that, the three continued to talk, laugh, and yell at each other with massive amounts of profanities which is how they talk to each other twenty-four-seven. They didn't mind this. But they all felt that something was missing.

Taehyung.

Taehyung usually hung around the three, finding them very peaceful. Even with all their yelling and crude remarks to one another, he felt himself at ease with them, and he loved it. He remembers not wanting it to end at all. Jimin, Hoseok, and Yoongi felt the same.

But now look at where they are.

Broken, confused, and hurt. Neither of them doesn't know what to do, or how to talk about it. Jimin wants to ask how Taehyung is doing, Hoseok wants them to ask how Taehyung is doing, and Yoongi wants to ask about these feelings he has for the younger.

Jimin decided to end it all. He paused the game, set the controller down and stared at Hoseok. Hoseok found himself doing the same.

"How is he?" Jimin said, his voice sounding like a whisper. He found it hard to find his voice with all the voices and questions running through his head. Hoseok couldn't help but frown.

"We... don't know. He won't speak to anyone, but he lets us hug him and stuff. I feel like he can't trust himself to speak since Jackson wouldn't listen to it. I feel like he can't tell anyone anything because he thinks that they won't listen to him." Hoseok said, saddening both Yoongi and Jimin.

"But... he is alright though, right?" Yoongi said, pushing himself up straight. Jimin glanced at Yoongi and switched his gaze back to Hoseok when he sighed.

"I think so. We've been trying to have him see a therapist, but he always refuses. He keeps writing down how he doesn't need that, but someone else. We still don't know who he is talking about. We tried Jungkook, but Jungkook always says he won't tell him anything either." Hoseok murmured, finding his gaze drift from Jimin to Yoongi. His gaze stayed on Yoongi, and the older knew what he was implying. He nodded and stood up.

"Call the others and tell them to meet at Taehyung's," Yoongi ordered, walking to his bedroom. Jimin and Hoseok looked at each other before nodding and getting up.

"Care to tell me why the hell that midget is here?" Jungkook sneered, looking directly at Yoongi. Yoongi rolled his eyes at the younger's remark and pointed towards Taehyung's door.

"Hoseok, Jimin, and I thought that since he wouldn't see a therapist, we thought that one of us could help him open up. Now look; I fucked up. We fucked up. We know that. But we're also worried about Taehyung. We still care for him just as much as you guys do." Yoongi said, eyeing all of the men in the living room. Yoongi made sure not to raise his voice for he might let Taehyung know they were here (they found his hidden key and snuck in). They all looked at each other, some believing him and others not. Jungkook especially.

"You do realize that this is your fault, right?" Jungkook spoke up again, marching towards the older. He stared him down. Yoongi nodded.

"It is not entirely my fault and you know it. But I do know I am one of the main reasons why is he acting like this, that's why I'm going to fix it." Yoongi growled, feeling a pulse of jealousy shoot through his veins. He glared up at the younger, who slowly backed down after hearing the venom in his voice. Jungkook clicked his tongue.

"Jimin should go first," he said after he backed down. Yoongi looked back at Jimin and squeezed his hand in reassurance. Jimin smiled sadly and looked at Jungkook, finding a bright smile dance on his lips when he looked at the younger. Although he kept it hidden under his hand.

"Alright.. here I go," Jimin muttered to himself before he went in.

Jimin stepped out with a small smile on his face, walking towards the group.

"When I got in there he was crying in his sleep so I comforted him and apologized for everything I did. He said he forgives me.." Jimin smiled, happy that his best friend spoke to him. Everyone sighed in relief and turned towards Yoongi, who looked worried as he stared at the door.

Everyone saw as his fingers trembled when he reached for the doorknob. They saw how he hesitated.

Yoongi inhaled and slowly opened the door.

cliffhanger.

also can we talk about how shitty some people can be?

okay so, i had these two best friends named... M and B. we would hang out all the fucking time after school because we live in the same neighborhood. Although they were a school year younger then me. So i'm in 8th (god i hate being in 8th grade) while theyre in 7th. Now something happened to my step sister Thursday and ran out of the house crying. (i didnt do anything it was my step brother). they found her crying while i went to my friends house (i didnt know she ran out of the house) and they comforted her and shit. I found her after i came back and thats when i knew something was weird. they wouldnt speak to me that much, they only spoke to her. i felt left out but i knew she needed comforting so i let it slide. the next day at the bus stop they kept talking and talking and my step sister ended up sitting in my seat (next to m) and so i had nowhere to sit. i sat in the back.. i ended up crying because i knew something was going to happen to us and i couldnt handle it. so at lunch, B called me over to talk to her and she said that we should stop being friends. she said i kept talking bad about them (i have my opinions about them, and they have their opinions about me.) and how since i was going to 9th grade soon it wouldnt matter anyway. not to mention how they were going to hang out with my step sister from now on, leaving me behind. i said 'i knew this was going to happen, its okay.'

but it's not. i felt so... broken. ive never cried this much. they were my best friends, they got me out of that hell hole i called a home. they made me feel at peace every time i was with them. i never felt alone with them. and now theyre no longer with me. i hate this. so much. i dont want to live anymore. i want to tell them what they are doing is messed up. but i cant. they blocked me on all social media and even blocked my number. they left me all alone. and i dont know what to do.'

is it my fault? it probably is.

thanks for listening... or reading i guess.

bye bye, have a good day.

(hi this whole thing is like two years old,, it has blown over and i am okay with the both of them but i dont talk to them.)
