Jungkook sighed as he made his way to the senior dorms, his jacket and arms wrapped so warmly around himself as it was starting to get cold outside.

All he planned to do was talk to Seokjin. He'd never held things against people before, no matter how hard he'd try. Hell, he even forgave Chanseok after a few apologies for what he had done before. Not that Jungkook would go near him or move back into his dorm, but still, just like now, as he made his way to Seokjin's dorm to talk it out... He was going to let it all go.

He needed to.

If he had known that Seokjin was going to be this upset over careless words the younger had said, he wouldn't have been so harsh on him. Even Jungkook didn't like how harsh he was. He's too gentle for such things.

Not that day, apparently.

It's just so confusing, though. Seokjin deserved this. Jungkook didn't owe him anything at all. It's just... Jwan didn't deserve it as much as Jin did. He had a hard time separating the two of them simply because there is no "two of them."

Jwan is Seokjin. Seokjin is Jwan.

How?

Jwan is so nice, caring, fun, patient when it came to Jungkook, never questioned him when they'd play that game together, was always thankful for Jungkook helping him, always joking with him and making him blush. Called him baby. Cute.

Seokjin was the complete opposite. Rude, always looking bored with the world, looked like he'd never laughed a day in his life, only knows how to speak in rude responses, and he doesn't even call Jungkook by his name; freshman.

Jungkook was only some useless freshman to him, but to Jwan he was a friend. He was baby...

Maybe Jungkook had gotten too caught up in his little crush on Jwan. Maybe that was the reason he found himself walking up to Seokjin's dorm on this cold, miserable day.

He wasted no time in knocking on the door, knowing he'd back out if he didn't do it soon.

"Jin?"

His knock wasn't too aggressive or anything. He didn't even know what he was going to say when Seokjin opened the door. The plan was to let Seokjin say something first.

However, all he got in return was a thud from the inside of the dorm and a curse, a frown forming on his face as he recognized Seokjin's voice.

Why was Jungkook so nervous? Why was he picking at his jacket strings and waiting there like he was; his heart beating so quickly at the thought of talking to each other.

Why wasn't Seokjin opening the door?

"Seokjin..?" He knocked again, but this time he got silence. Nothing.

He backed away from the door and glanced around, feeling small amongst the seniors wandering the hall, some with their doors wide open and some watching Jungkook curiously.

Seokjin's door wasn't opening anytime soon. He had walked all the way over here just to be ignored.

After a whole five minutes of just standing there like some creep, he finally decided to quit trying. Finally decided that being lied to is one thing, but being ignored sucked just as much.

Maybe the rumors weren't true— Seokjin being locked in his room because of Jungkook.

Maybe Seokjin didn't want to see him. Maybe Jungkook was the only one making such a big deal out of it. Maybe Seokjin just... didn't care.
