14 - He Loves Him
"What?! No way in hell I'm doing that." Hoseok yelled at Jungkook who was practically convincing him to fake date Jimin.
And that fake being real for everyone except Hoseok, Taehyung and him.
"Why do you want hyung to do that kook?" Taehyung questioned.
"Hear me out." Jungkook crossed his hands, "Yoongi hyung definitely loves him or at least he likes him a lot."
Hoseok chocked on air while Taehyung nearly fell from the spinning chair he was swinging on.
"Guys I'm not joking."
"For god's sake kook, Yoongi hyung is straight." Taehyung widened his orbs.
"Fuck it. That midget hyung is an exception." Jungkook paused, "And Yoongi hyung definitely likes him. He said his lips are kissable."
Poor them, don't even know that 'straight' Yoongi has already kissed Jimin.
"He said what?" Hoseok was staggered.
"He said that Jimin hyung's lips are kissable." Jungkook repeated.
"Okay so let me tell you something." Hoseok began, "If Jimin loves hyung then he'll never date me. Second, if, by any chance, hyung loves him back, he'll definitely kill me."
"That's the whole point hyung. If he kills you that means he'll have to accept the feeling." Jungkook tried to sound convincing.
"He means if he tries to kill you." Taehyung added.
"I don't think it will work." Hoseok scoffed.
"Listen hyung, that will definitely work. If he reacts over that we would have a chance to question him that why does he care? Plus about Jimin hyung, you may ask him for not so serious date and all. I guess he's not so happy with getting no love from hyung so maybe he'll accept, to give it a try. If he doesn't, we'll help."
Hoseok sighed, he looked at Taehyung.
"That sounds good." Taehyung shrugged, "After all I want my soulmate to be happy with his love."
Hoseok gave up, "Okay!" He mumbled, "I'm risking my friendship with Yoongi hyung for this."
-
Knock!
Come in!
"Hey hyung!" Jimin chirped.
"Yes?" Yoongi spat coldly.
"I brought some food. We can eat together." Jimin offered.
"I don't really feel hungry right now, you may eat." Yoongi still didn't glance the other male.
"You're hungry and you're stubborn. Eat!"
"Shut up Jimin and go to your cabin. I don't wanna eat, I don't wanna talk, I don't wanna do any fucking thing. I've to work and that's what I'm doing."
There was silence for a while. Yoongi didn't mind to look at the younger about what he was upto. He just continued to work with a damn frustrated mind.
That was when he felt a pair of arms around his neck and a chin over his head.
Yoongi inhaled deeply, the fresh scent occupying his nasal area, "Just leave already Jimin."
"You don't want me to leave, I know that hyung!" Jimin whispered.
This! This was the thing Yoongi admired about Jimin. The younger understands him well. After Jungkook, he was the only one in that queue.
No he's not saying that all of his other friends we insensitive towards him. He was grateful for everyone being on his side but a few things made these two younger ones different.
Both of them knew when Yoongi needed some space and when he needed some warmth although he would always ask the former person to leave him alone.
"I know you're worried because of Mr. Jeon, do you want to share it with me?" Jimin interrupted Yoongi's thoughts.
"Yes" Yoongi mumbled without a second thought.
Jimin parted away from Yoongi. He dragged a stool, turned Yoongi's chair towards him and finally asked him to continue.
Yoongi revealed every single detail of his conversation with Su-jin, "I don't know how to confront kook now."
"That's easy hyung." Jimin chuckled, "Haven't you yourself said that he's strong now?"
"I know he's but you know, it's so sudden. Moreover he's not on good terms with his past. He still gets tensed up, he still faces nightmares. I don't know how will he react."
"Well," Jimin began, "that depends on the way you try to convince him."
"Pardon?"
"Hyung it's simple. If you burden it over him by talking about your mom's demand then I don't think it would be okay. I would recommend you not to reveal him that particular stuff. Simply ask him if he wants to visit or not? And yeah, try to sound like 100% of your decision depends on his choice."
"And what if he denies?" Yoongi readily questioned.
"Then you've to choose between your brother's mental health and your mom's demands."
Yoongi was fast to capture all of the things Jimin suggested, "Thankyou, chim."
Jimin was stunned. The way that nickname rolled out from Yoongi's tongue was too much for his heart as it happened all of a sudden.
Yoongi smiled, "Sorry if you don't like it."
"Nahh, I love it. Now will you please eat? I'm hungry as well." Jimin pleaded dramatically.
"Of course let me finish this."
Jimin rolled his eyes. He was extremely impatient to taste the blissful food. He ignored the older's statement and began to unwrap the food. He smiled to the pleasant aroma and immediately found a bite.
Yoongi stared at the bite of food held in front of him and then averted his gaze to Jimin.
"C'mon hyung hurry up." Jimin was indeed restless.
Yoongi chuckled and gladly accepted the food. Maybe it got tastier no?
Jimin then himself took a bite, pleasing his tongue as well as tummy.
Yoongi was done with the work but he didn't let Jimin know. He kept acting as if he was working and kept enjoying the pleasant food through Jimin's hands.
"Thankyou" was all Yoongi could say to the younger.
"Huh you always tryna make me a stranger don't you?"
Yoongi let out a low chuckle after which Jimin left the cabin.
-
"He's alright Mr. Min. It was after a very long time so he was extra panicked. Take care of him and don't stress him out much. He may feel a little bit weak but a good amount of rest would do." The doctor informed Yoongi who was standing against a particular hospital room. The clock said 2:14 am, Yoongi sighed and was about to walk into the room when he heard a voice.
"Hyung!!" Jimin and Taehyung yelled in unison while walking towards Yoongi. They were being followed by Jin, Namjoon and Hoseok who were asking him to keep their voices low.
Yoongi was staggered by the crowd, "Why are you all here?"
"Of course to see Jungkook!" Taehyung tried to catch his breathe as he was panting heavily, "What happened to him?"
"How do you know?" This was all Yoongi could reply.
"Does that even matter hyung?" Hoseok interrupted, "How's he?"
"He's all good. The doctor said that there's nothing to worry about." Yoongi informed.
Loud sighs of relief were heard to which Jin frowned, "Be quiet you unnecessarily loud pigs. This is a hospital!"
"Sorry." Jimin mumbled, "What had happened to him hyung?"
"But how do you know?!" Yoongi questioned again, ignoring the question earning several scrowls.
"Taehyung called Jungkook which he didn't pick up. He didn't feel right so Tae called your home's landline which wasn't answered either. At last, he called the guards who informed about you rushing to the hospital with Jungkook." Namjoon hurriedly explained.
"Hyung can you tell us that why is he in the hospital?" Taehyung impatiently questioned.
"Um yeah, he-" Yoongi paused, "Food poisoning."
"No way!" Hoseok squealed, "Hairi noona is always cautious in case of food so this is nearly impossible."
"I know." Yoongi slightly coughed, "He- I mean we stopped by a cafe to have some pastries, they didn't suit him."
"Okay, let's meet and cheer him up. What say?" Namjoon suggested to which everyone agreed.
Well, everyone except Yoongi, "No!" He slightly yelled, startling everyone.
"He's asleep." Yoongi lowered his voice, "The doctor gave him sleeping pills as well plus it's already 2 in the morning. There's no use of meeting him, you all should rest at your home."
"And what about you?" Jimin asked, concerned.
"I'll manage in here. Text me when you all reach home, I'm going to check if everything is alright in there." Yoongi calmly stated to which everyone nodded in agreement. They began to leave after uttering assuring words while Yoongi stepped into the room.
"Wait!" Jin mumbled to which everyone halted, "I'm going to stay back Joon."
"What happened?" Namjoon inched closer to Jin.
"Nothing. It's not feeling right to leave them alone so I'll stay."
"Can I stay as well?" Taehyung pleaded to which Jin nodded.
"No don't even think about that." Jin glared the other three when they were about to ask for staying back as well, "We're not supposed to create a fuss in here. I and Tae will stay back, rest of you, go home. Here take the keys Joon."
-
Jungkook's eyes fluttered open when he sensed another presence around him, "Hyung!" He managed to smile softly.
Yoongi took a seat besides Jungkook who was lying on the bed and caressed his soft locks.
"I'm sorry." Jungkook mumbled, dejected over himself.
"No why are you sorry kook? It's alright, are you okay now?"
Jungkook nodded and looked away.
Yoongi cupped his cheeks and turned his face towards his own, "It's not your fault okay? It's not! Don't stress over it."
"You'll never accept my flaws hyung." Jungkook mumbled, "For you, I'm never at fault. You'll never say that I did wrong by letting my past trigger me again. You'll never let me know about your disappointment over me when I fail to be strong."
Yoongi paused for a while, "Here look at me kook. Do you really think that I never warn you about your wrong doings? I do right?"
Jungkook nodded.
"Why should I blame you when you're genuinely not at fault here? There's no human being in the world who can stay strong forever. Everyone has their own weaknesses, it depends on them over how they face them. And I'm glad that you're doing great!!"
"I'm not." Jungkook denied.
"Why not? Listen kook, what happened years ago was indeed traumatizing. People can't even survive their lives after that but you did. You even managed to cope up with that to live a cheerful life with all of us. How can you forget all this if it triggers you once or twice in an year?"
"I love you hyung!" Jungkook beamed.
"Love you too bun." Yoongi kissed Jungkook's forehead, "I'm coming in a while, you should sleep. And yes, they visited the hospital."
Jungkook's jaw dropped, "The hyungs? You didn't tell them anything right?"
"I didn't. I told them that you suffered food poisoning. Well, forget all that, sleep! Good night." Yoongi assured and left the room only to be met with two pairs of sharp glares.
"Why are you both here?" He questioned.
"Leaving you both on your own didn't feel right, so we stayed." Jin averted his gaze.
"Why did you lie to us hyung? We clearly saw from the glass that you were talking to Jungkook that means he isn't sleeping." Taehyung enquired.
"I misunderstood, sorry. When I walked into the room to check on him, he was awake."
"Can I meet him?" Taehyung waited for an answer eagerly.
"Yes." Yoongi answered and Taehyung immediately walked into the room.
"Aren't you going to meet him hyung?" Yoongi asked Jin.
Jin glared him in answer, "Come with me." He dragged him to an isolated corner of the hospital coridoor.
"What is it hyung?!" Yoongi slightly yelled.
"It wasn't food poisoning right? Right?" Jin finally spoke earning only silence from the younger, "That means I'm guessing it right."
Yoongi nodded while lowering his head.
"Why Yoongi why? All of us got worried and rushed to the hospital at this hour only to see him, if he's fine or not. Do you know how dejected they were when you asked them to leave without letting them even have a glance on him? Everyone is more than ready to help and co-operate but you still have to hide everything from them." Jin blurted out everything at once.
Flashback
"Do you miss them?" Yoongi finally asked after a lot of useless talks while they sat in the living room of their mansion.
"Whom?" Jungkook questioned.
"Umm not them, only mom. Do you miss mom?" Yoongi hesitated.
Jungkook took a deep breathe, "Y-Yes. I do but-"
"But?"
"But I need you, only."
"I know kook, I'm just eager to know what you think about them."
"Them?"
Yoongi sighed, "Da- Mr. Jeon as well. See we can drop this topic right here if you want."
"No no, it's alright." Jungkook instantly answered, "I told you hyung, I do miss them. After all I've spent a huge part of my life with them before the end months when everything turned wrong."
"Do you- I mean-" Yoongi paused, "Do you- like if you get a chance to- like I'm not forcing you, no one can but still- you know what I want to say right? Do you-"
Jungkook's confused look was now replaced by hesitation as well, "want to meet them?" He completed Yoongi's sentence who nodded.
"Do you want to meet them?" Jungkook cross questioned.
"Depends on you." Yoongi caressed Jungkook's hairs, "If you say yes, I'll agree as well and vice versa. I don't really have an opinion over this."
"I don't want to go there." Jungkook mumbled softly.
Yoongi's conscience hit a lot of thoughts that worried him, he immediately embraced the younger.
"Of course we'll not see them, never in our life. Okay kook? Don't worry, let's watch something, choose!" Yoongi changed the topic.
"Nothing hyung. I'm already tired, I want to sleep." Jungkook left for his room after their conversation while Yoongi stayed back in the living room.
After closing the door behind him, Jungkook went to change his clothes and get ready for bed, trying his best to ignore the thoughts lingering in his mind.
"Such a useless piece of shit you are. Shame on you Jungkook shame on you. Do you even know what have you done?" Su-jin yelled, his harsh voice echoing in the dark room.
"Now stay locked up here until your mind begins to work!"
"No dad, please no! It's dark out here!" Jungkook begged while clutching his dad's right leg.
"Shut up and don't call me dad. You've lost me after the sin you've comitted and you know what, soon you'll loose everyone."
"Nooo" Jungkook cried.
"Yes. Your mom will hate you and so will your hyung. They'll abandon you and begin a new happy chapter of their life, without you! No one needs you, you should die yourself."
"Nooooo!" Jungkook yelled lowly. Tears streaming down through his eyes while he clutched his chest harshly. He managed to walk towards the drawer and pulled out a specific can of pills.
"You don't deserve anyone. The only thing your deserve is to die alone, in this dark room." His dad slapped him twice.
Jungkook covered his ears to ignore all of the memories that came in flashing into his mind after a long time.
He poured himself a glass of water but before he could intake the pills everything fell from his hand. The pills were scattered on the wooden floor while the glass shattered into pieces.
His hands were trembling and so were his legs. He could feel his body going numb.
"I'll be glad if I get rid of you. Your mom and hyung wouldn't say it out loud but they want the same. You're just a burden to our cheerful lives. You've ruined everything. You've disrupted our happiness."
And next, he could feel himself falling in the darkness as well. He could no more feel any of the memories as his mind was too tired to think about anything. He felt the contentment of nearly falling unconscious because it helped him to get rid of the bitter memories.
-
Thud!
Yoongi heard a loud sound from Jungkook's room. He immediately rushed towards the door and knocked it.
No answer.
He banged the door vigorously and screamed, "Kook! Open the door! Be strong and open the door!"
"Hyung please don't leave me." A low, frail voice was heard from behind the door which worried Yoongi even more.
"I'm not leaving you kook! Just open the door, please?!" Yoongi begged but earned silence in response.
He couldn't wait anymore, he can't bear any kind of risk. After 3-4 attempts, he managed to break the door.
His jaw dropped from the scenario. The room was a mess. Pills scattered, water spilled, glass broken, sheets messed and Jungkook curled up in one corner of the room. He was clutching his chest and mumbling incoherent words.
Yoongi ran to his younger brother and placed his head on his lap while caressing his locks.
Jungkook was sweating, he was nearly unconscious as well.
"Kook! Wake up kook!" Yoongi splashed a few drops of water over face.
Jungkook's face scrunched but his condition didn't get better.
"Hyung, everyone will leave me." Jungkook muttered while panting hard.
"No one will leave you kook! You're precious okay? Now get up for hyung, please! Don't close your eyes." No matter how much Yoongi tried, the condition remained the same.
Finally giving up, Yoongi decided that he has to rush to the hospital. He somehow made Jungkook stand. The younger's hands were wrapped around Yoongi's shoulders as the older dragged him towards the main door.
As soon as the main door opened, the guards instantly noticed the two males. They rushed to help Yoongi and walked thek towards to the car.
"Hospital!" Yoongi ordered as the ignition was immediately turned on and the car aimed it's destination.
Present
"I'm sorry hyung but I can't reveal this to everyone. It's Jungkook's wish as well." Yoongi admitted.
"Bullshit. You're doing wrong." Jin remarked.
"No hyung it's not wrong. All he would get after revealing this would be sympathy and pity. No one will treat him casually afterwards, they'll think twice before talking to him and eventually it would build a wall between him and others."
"Do you even know what the fuck you're speaking right now?" Jin spat, "Pity? Sympathy? Wall? Yoongi, what we do is called worrying and being carefull."
"Whatever it is hyung. He's alright, don't worry. It's just that the topic itself surfaced over him after a long time so he couldn't bear it. Besides, everything is all okay." Yoongi assured.
"If you say so." Jin mumbled.
