Jimin had to take Taehyung to his place because he couldn't let his soulmate be alone at the very vulnerable moment.

Taehyung had been sobbing throughout the way while Jimin drove, his words of comfort never helping the other male.

As soon as Jimin parked his car, Taehyung rushed into his house and dropped down on the couch to cry like a freak.

The same couch where he bawled his eyes out when he found out Seojoon was cheating on him.

This time it was way more heartbreaking for him. Taehyung sobbed louder now, his face turning red and puffier and Jimin panicked, quickly embracing his quivering frame in his arms.

"N-no he didn't… he… he s-said he loved me… no he didn't…" Taehyung cried on Jimin's shoulder who tried to comfort him but Taehyung was not able to let his mind off what just happened.

Afterall Jungkook showed him the best moments of life.

Jimin had always been protective and possessive because he never wanted a day in his life to have Taehyung sobbing in his arms like that but still it happened.

Taehyung too never imagined for a day to come like that, he really thought he had seen the worst and now was getting better but eventually it all fell apart, back to where it was.

All those nights of insecurities when Jungkook would act strange and would ignore conversations, Taehyung never even imagined it to turn out this way which was nothing more than just a huge misunderstanding but for now he felt like rotting in hell.

The tears of pain and trauma didn't stop Taehyung's eyes the whole night and Jimin had to be by his side the entire time until he fell asleep in his embrace.

Jimin couldn't help but only whisper words of comfort to him, Taehyung was his first best friend, his source of happiness and the one who always encouraged him when he was feeling down and now watching him down made him feel helpless.

He really hated Jungkook at the moment and swore would never let Taehyung see his face ever again.

~♡~

Taehyung twisted and turned his position on the bed the whole night, finally ending his game of pretending just for the sake of his friend who couldn't fall asleep before making sure that Taehyung was asleep.

Now that Jimin had fallen asleep, Taehyung turned himself over, getting up and heading to the living room. He finally let everything come out as he sat down on the couch, letting his tears fall as he checked his phone.

Not even a single text by Jungkook yet. Did he really not need him anymore? Or what happened was exactly right?

Taehyung couldn't help but feel extremely unimportant, lost and more exhausted.

He really thought Jungkook was the one, the one who would be his last but now he was watching everything not lasting anymore but falling apart.

He couldn't help but check his phone again and again, wanting to call Jungkook but the inner side didn't want to.

Why was he the only one to make efforts?

Everything was happening again for him, his heart was broken again, he was cheated again.

It was happening again but having Jungkook was way more different. He made him experience so many wonderful things that no one else ever did and now it's so hard to forget because he gave him so much to remember.

Taehyung waited, longed for his phone to ring once and he was ready to run back into his arms.

But it didn't happen.

~♡~

The next morning Jimin was early to wake up. He made his way to the kitchen after getting a quick shower to prepare meals for the two.

He then filled the tray with food before heading to the bedroom to wake Taehyung up who was curled up on the bed, hugging his knees while shedding silent tears.

"Good morning, Tae!" Jimin called out simply to check if he was awake and put the tray on the nightstand to peek and watch Taehyung's face who was back facing him.

"Tae? Hey!" Jimin panicked once he found Taehyung crying silently who finally burst out loudly into tears, not able to keep his tears anymore.

He waited for Jungkook's call the whole night but now he felt so unimportant.

"Oh my God." Jimin turned him to himself, embracing him again.

"Tae… stop~~" Jimin whined as Taehyung buried his face into his neck, letting Jimin caress his back.

"W-why me? Why me all the time? D-didn't I love him enough… w-why?" Taehyung sobbed, repeatedly whispering the same questions again and Jimin felt helpless.

"You're not alone. You're not. Okay?" Jimin said in a comforting way, bringing Taehyung's face in his hands now.

"Look at me." Jimin demanded but Taehyung only cried, not wanting to face but hug him.

Jimin let it be, let Taehyung hug him and bury his face in his neck.

"You don't deserve this pain and he doesn't deserve these tears of yours. I feel helpless and out of words but Taehyung I am always here for you no matter what. You have to know that you're not alone, you're never alone. You have me, you have. Seokjin hyung, Hobi hyung. We all love you like always. Everything will be alright. It will all be alright." Jimin whispered sweet nothings to his ear, hands sliding up and down on his back.

"I r-really loved h-him…. I loved h-him so much."

"He doesn't deserve you, not when you spent days and nights of worries because of him. Look at me, look me in the eyes now." Jimin brought Taehyung's face in his hands, making him face himself.

"It's your heart not a toy. Don't let him or anyone play with it. It takes a lot of time to mend it again and I can't see you hurt. So I'm telling you again, you're not alone. If he did you wrong, you don't need him anymore. And today I'll get your stuff out of there. You won't see his face again." Jimin said with seriousness in his voice, Taehyung's condition had activated all his protective senses.

Taehyung kept quiet. He did want to see Jungkook again, hold him again, fight with him, ask him why he did him wrong but then again he just didn't want to play stupid and let his heart break again.

Even after trying so hard, Taehyung fell for everything that Jungkook did.

~♡~

The burnt and fused cigarettes were scattered all over Jungkook's marble floor. His exhausted watery bloodshot eyes didn't close for the whole night. He stayed awake, burning his lungs with only Taehyung in his mind.

Jungkook had played with many people throughout his life, he had been with many people but not more than just a hookup. He even was in a relationship that lasted for only two months but he never played with anyone's feelings or tried to be unloyal.

Jungkook had made things clear from the start with everyone he met in his life because he never chose feelings to play with but his persona was completely different from what he actually was from inside.

His flirtatious, moody and bratty side made him stand out like some playboy who fucks people and leaves them, exactly what Taehyung started thinking of him.

It took him days to win Taehyung's heart, make him believe he was more than what people think of him but in the end he was back at it again.

His phone blew up many times, showing up his father's number but he was fucked up and not in a state of picking up because how Taehyung accused him had him feeling very small and worthless, at the end of the day he was nothing but a playboy to him.

Jungkook's life was in a complete mess and he wanted to see Taehyung so bad but what held him back was the flashbacks of last night. The way Taehyung chose to walk away instead of a sober conversation.

Jungkook was guilty for bursting out but he was sure that they would work this out but he felt so worthless because after everything he has done, Taehyung didn't believe him.

Shuffling sound coming from the outside had caught Jungkook's attention and he fused his cigarette below his feet before rushing outside with only Taehyung in his mind.

The door flew open to Taehyung's house and Jungkook entered through the opened door, longing eyes wandering everywhere around.

"Taehyung!... T-taehyung…" he shouted and entered his bedroom to only find Jimin pulling out bags and stuffing his clothes in them.

"What are you doing?" Jungkook's exhaustion filled and shock laced voice asked when he saw Jimin stuffing bags after bags.

"He won't be here anymore, not with you and not beside you." Jimin said straight to his face and Jungkook's face turned pale.

"W-what? No… he will not." Jungkook said, trying to stop Jimin from walking away with the bags.

"You don't even know half of the story. Let him and I deal with it. I know it's all messed up but we will work this out Jimin, I swear."

"Work out what? Care to explain how you work out cheating?"

"I didn't cheat on him, Jimin, mind your tongue." Jungkook whispered through gritted teeth, on the edge of losing his temper.

"Then what do you have to say about the day when you treated him like shit as if he doesn't exist anymore. What about taking your girl to the hospital if it isn't your child?" And Jungkook grabbed Jimin's collar.

"Shut your mouth." Jungkook warned, peering dangerously into his eyes.

"Then what? You will hit me? Cheater." And the way Jimin scoffed Jungkook lost his control and raised his fist to land on his face but before he could, a scream from behind stopped him.

Jungkook turned his head, finding Taehyung witnessing everything and he was messed up more than before.
