Kim Tae Hyung POV

"Jungkook...Jung - Jungkook...Kook...," I call out his name in vain as I lay in bed.

"Taehyung, stop it. You're even more sick!," Seokjin scolded in annoyance as he put a wet cloth on my forehead.

"I - I can't...," I stutter.

Why did he leave again?

"Jungkook's gone. Face it!," Seokjin told me angrily as he covered me with the sheets.

"I. Want. Jungkook!," I speak firmly. I look at him straight in the eyes with a fierce gaze that makes Seokjin speechless as he stares back at me.

Seokjin is quiet for a while as he averts his gaze from me. It's as if he's deciding something.

"Taehyung?," Seokjin calls in his deep voice.

"What?," I respond boringly; the pain in my heart has no interests to melt away soon.

And the next thing he tells me, sends me jumping out the bed and onto my two feet.
I grab my jacket and leave his apartment in a run.

Kim Seok Jin POV

I sit still in the chair. I don't even look back when Taehyung leaves in a run.

Maybe I shouldn't have told him -

Flashback ~

After Taehyung falls deeply into sleep, Jungkook slowly shifts him away and gets up from the bed.

"Thank you for coming over!," I say with a smile cause I know Taehyung will feel much better now.

Jungkook nods with a smile. And then in a fleeting moment, his smile disappears. Sadness covers his face.

"Jungkook, what is it?," I ask worriedly as I grip his shoulder; insisting him to tell me.

Jungkook hesitates at first; but then holding back his tears, he tells me everything.
Everything.

I take a step back in shock. Regret fills my heart. I shouldn't have listened. The thought of Jungkook leaving me shatters me.

"Seokjin hyung - ," Jungkook calls.

The final time I'll be hearing him call my name. The final time I'll be hearing his voice.

Just then Jungkook's cell phone buzzes. He take it out and checks the message. Instantly his eyes widen as he covers his mouth with his hand.

"What?," I ask him.

Jungkook looks frozen. Broken. He hands me his cell phone and I read the message -

Jungkook, something came up. Come home. We're leaving TONIGHT!

I stumble back. What's going on so suddenly? What trick is fate playing with us?!

Jungkook takes his phone back from me. I turn to look at him and see tears in his eyes.

"Take care of yourself...and Taehyung!," Jungkook says with a sad smile as he wipes away his tears with the back of his hand.

"Jungkook...," I call.

Jungkook waits a while for me to continue.

Should I tell him how much he means to me?
Should I tell him I need him?
Should I tell him I love him?

I want you to stay even if you belong to someone else.

"Jungkook...we're friends, right?," I ask nervously as I change my reply.

"Yes, we're friends," Jungkook replies with a smile. And then he leaves me alone.

Flashback Ends ~

For a minute, I thought about making Taehyung wait.
I wanted to look out for myself.
I didn't want to be the good guy anymore.
But...
You looked so hurt.

I fell for you.
I never knew my heart could beat so fast.
But I was too slow and cowardly to beat the love you shared with him.

I like you.

Kim Tae Hyung POV

I run down the streets.
I run as fast as my legs can go.

Jungkook, how can you do this to me?!

I run blindly, bumping into people on my way; but I don't stop to say sorry to them.

I run. And run.

Jungkook, I'm coming; so please don't leave just yet...

I run faster.
My legs start giving up, but I couldn't care less.

Finally, I see Jungkook's house in the distance. A small smile reaches over my face, but it disappears when I see Mr. Jeon's car leaving from the driveway.

"Jungkook!," I yell at the top of my lungs as I run after the already far away car.

I can't give up.

Jeon Jung Kook POV

I stare out the car's window, blankly, as we drive past many houses in the neighborhood.

All I can think about is of Taehyung.

I thought about how he reacted when he woke up to find me gone...for the second time.
Taehyung must hate me so much.

You're a Caramel Macchiato.
Your scent is still sweet on my lips.

I feel someone grab my hand. I turn to see it was my mother's. She smiles at me reassuringly; but I just shrug her hand off of from mine.

"Jungkook!," someone shouts.

Immediately I jerk up when I hear someone call my name. That voice sounds so much like -
Can it be - ?

I pull down the windows and stick my head out. I smile happily when I see Taehyung chasing after the car as he shouts out my name.

"Taehyung!," I shout back.

My mother pulls me back inside and orders my father to drive faster.

"Step on it!," my mother shouts.

"Stop the car!," I order.

My father hesitates. He doesn't knows who he should listen to - his mad wife or his crazy son.

"Jungkook, stop it! Taehyung and you are not meant to be!," my mother shouts at me angrily.

"Taehyung and I met only because of you leaving me. Just leave again!," I shout back.

My mother gasps.
In rage, she slaps me right across my cheek. I feel my cheek burning, but I don't care.

"If you don't stop the car, then - ," I speak as I open the car's door, "I'll jump out!"

"Jungkook!," my mother gasp in shock.

Immediately my father stops the car in the middle of the streets.
I jump out and run towards Taehyung who's panting hard on his knees.

"Kim Taehyung!," I call softly as I fall down on my knees beside him.

Taehyung looks at me in shock. Then he smiles as he caresses both my cheeks.

"You - You're not leaving, right?," Taehyung stutters as tears fills his brown eyes.

I nod with a smile as I try to hold back my tears.

Taehyung smiles even more and then he embraces me into his arms.

How can I not cry now?

I cry out of happiness.
I was back in his arms.

THE END

**********

I'm sorry if the ending is a bit cliche XD

What happens next is up to you to decide...you can either imagine them fighting Jungkook's mother wishes or you can imagine Jungkook's mother having a change of heart and letting her son get married...😁😁😁😁😁😁

Anyways, I'm writing a new story and its called BTS : NEW MEMBER.

It's about Jungkook who gets selected to be the new member of the famous boy band BTS...

IF YOU LIKE THE LOVERS THEN I BET YOU'LL LOVE MY OTHER STORES TOO!😊😊😊😊
