Jimin's pov 

As soon as I woke up this morning, I found someone sitting at the foot of my bed watching me sleep. My vison still blurry, I wasn't able to decipher who it was.

"Taehyung?" A pained chuckled followed my question. "It's me. Jungkook." I rubbed my eyes attempting to clear my vision. Like he'd said, there he was. Jungkook was sitting at the foot of my bed looking a tad bit offended.

"Oh, sorry. I just thought..." I didn't finish my sentence. I didn't want to. "It's okay. What's important is that you're okay." Jungkook held one of my hands and rubbed circles into it. "I heard what happened. I'm really sorry. The police managed to find him, but unfortunately not before he killed someone with the name of Kim Hyunwoo. The poor guy had a family too. What's surprising was that he was the leader of the biggest mafia in South Korea." Jungkook says.

Kim Hyunwoo.

Wasn't he Taehyung's father? He was mafia?

"He had a family?" I asked. I was dying to know more about this case. "Yeah, a son and a wife. Well, he kind of left his family but he still had one." Jungkook says sympathetically. I felt a wave of sadness crash over me as if I was the one grieving for my own father.

I'd already experienced it first hand but this time was different. It wasn't sympathy. It was merely as if I knew exactly what Taehyung was feeling. 

"You okay?" Jungkook must've noticed my facial expressions. "I'm fine." I lied. He nodded and asked me something I was not expecting. "Will you be my boyfriend?" I looked at him feeling shocked. "I know it's kind if early but we've kissed and gone out a few times and I always love everything about you. The days you were gone, I didn't know what to do. I was so scared and I felt guilty that I couldn't save you. Now that you're back, I don't want to lose you again."

I thought about Taehyung yesterday. Was he even officially gay? Did he even like me? Was he just kissing me because I wanted him to ir did he actually enjoy it too? 

Maybe it would be better off if I dated someone that I knew had feelings for me.

"Yes." It sounded more like a question but Jungkook's bunny smile was plastered on his face.

He hugged me and kissed me on the cheek. "I'm so happy I can finally call you 'mine'." I smiled shyly and he pulled me in for a soft kiss. 

"Thankyou so much. I promise I'll take care of you." Jungkook whispered. "Can we take some pictures? I want to post them." I nodded and we took a few selcas with random stamps. He posted them and kissed me on the forehead.

He got off my bed and left the room leaving me alone with my thoughts again.

I checked my phone for any messages but found none. I was kind of expecting some from Taehyung, but realized that he must be grieving. I switched off my phine and sighed. 

How was I going to explain that Jungkook and I were dating.

-

Before I knew it, it was Monday again. My body had healed so I could walk by myself. I set off to school meeting Jungkook along the way. We chatted and I promised to meet him after school today so he could take me on a date for my birthday.

When we split up, I made my way to my locker to grab my language textbook before going to the classroom. I sat in the same seat I had sat in before and waited for Taehyung to arrive. Small bubbles formed in the pit if my stomach st the thought of Taehyung. Even though I was dating Jungkook, I was still in love with Taehyung.

I tried to ignore the euphoric feeling and focus on Jungkook for a minute, but I couldn't. As time passed, more students came in filling the classroom. The bell ramg and there was still no sign of Taehyung. I slumped in my chair feeling dissapointed. 

The teacher made his way in explained this weeks topic. "This week we will be focusing on a topic that has to do with finances. The topic will be investing. How can investing improve your life and how can it help you gain money from doing nothing. This time I want 8 pages. Does anyone want to come out and confess?" The room was silent.

I mentally groaned. Taehyung wasn't here and we had a boring subject. "Okay then. Does everyone have a partner?" The teacher asked. I raised my had feeling my cheeks get warm from the attention I was getting. "Yes mr. Park." I spoke. "Kim Taehyung is not here today." He nodded and pointed another boy to come sit next to me. "You'll work with him." I sighed at the thought of working with someone besides Taehyung and biwed my head politely at the boy. 

"You can start." The language teacher passed out papers and we git to work. I started by introducing myself. "Hi, I'm Park Jimin. I'm kimd of new here." I say. It had been two weeks but only two weeks. "Nice to meet you. I'm Kim Minjun." He stuck his hand out for me to shake it and I did. The hand shake gave me some kind of nostalgia. 

He smiled and we statted our project. We decided to work together instead of splitting the work so we could double check for the other person. We agreed to meet at his house the next day after school.

We mostly chatted and got to know eachother and I had a good feeling about this guy. He was nice and charming. Whenever I talked about myself, he seemed genuinely interested nit like he was just trying to make a good impression on me. The bell rang while we were in the middle of talking. I was packing my stuff whenhe called me. "Jimin?" I turned my head. "Can I have your number so I can contact you?" I smiled and gave it to him. I had a weird feeling that he didn't just want my number for the project but to also contact me personally.

"Thanks." He left the classroom. There was an angry person at the doorframe when I was ready to leave the classroom. "Jimin. That guy was flirting with you." I met eyes with a very angry very jealous Jungkook. "No he wasn't! He was just being nice." I defended Minjun. "He winked at you!" Jungkook threw hus hands in the air. 

"Calm down! You're the one I'm dating. Not him." I assured my boyfriend by getting on my tippy toes giving him a quick peck. I locked eyes with Jungkook before someone behind him distracted me.

Taehyung. 

"I-, uh, should probably get going." I try to push away from Jungkook. "Wait!" He pulled me closer to him holding my waist pressing his lips against mine. Another meaningless kiss. "I'll see you at lunch." Jungkook dashed away happily. 

I looked backto where I had originally seen Taehyung. He was gone.

I went go my next three classes without a problem. I tried focusing but the only image in my mind was the hurt look on Taehyung's face.
