»I like you, Kim Taehyung.«

The sounds of the firework and the cheers of the people around them vanished completely as Taehyung's eyes widened. It all made sense now.

'Whatever, just don't break his heart.'
'Why would I break his heart??'
'Just forget it.'

'I guess that's what you call whipped.'
.

'Right now, you're the definiton of being whipped, you know?'

I felt a pair of eyes on my body and as I turned to see who it was I saw Jungkook shamelessly checking out my naked chest. I saw Yoongi whisper a 'Kook, he noticed' and our eyes met. He quickly looked away, cheeks burning like fire what made me chuckle.

And for the first time in his entire life Taehyung acknowledged his heart which was beating against his chest, loud and hard.

Jungkook liked him.

They were still staring at each other, Taehyung was completely taken aback while Jungkook slowly but surely became scared. Why wasn't the other saying anything? Was he going to hate Jungkook now?

Was Taehyung about to reject him?

Meanwhile, Taehyung felt like a weight was lifted off his shoulders as his heart began beating faster and faster and he realised that the younger boy was the cause of all this. Jungkook was the reason why his heart was beating faster, why he was stuttering and why he was blushing like a maniac. Taehyung remembered that he once even glared at Namjoon because he had been too close to the younger.

The grip around his hands got tighter and Taehyung blinked twice, coming back into reality. Jungkook's eyes were emitting a certain nervousness, fear but also hope.

"S-so?" the younger stuttered quietly, his voice dangerously close to breaking.

"I—" like you, too. You don't know how much you changed my life ever since I've met you. I was mean to you at first but you didn't give up and showed me who you really are. Slowly but surely, you made me fall hard for you, your wonderful and stunning character, your gorgeous features, your beautiful laugh, your cute bunny teeth, your sexy thighs— for every part of you to be exact. I promise I will cherish you with every of your imperfections, so please accept mine, too! You were the one who made my heart beat so fast that I thought it would jump out of my chest. You were the one who endured the phases in which I did something to you that you didn't like. You were the one who accepted me even when I didn't give you a chance at first. But I can't thank you enough for waiting for me. I like you, too, Jeon Jungkook.

Was what Taehyung probably wanted to say. He knew this was the right moment to let all of his feelings out.

Now or never.
































"I-I'm sorry."

That's when Jungkook's world shattered into a billion pieces.

"I'm sorry." Taehyung repeated again, voice shaking.

Why?! the voice at the back of his head screamed, Why are you doing this?!

"B-but I—"

Why, just why are you rejecting him?!

The air was knocked out of Taehyung's lungs as he saw how the younger lowered his head, tears streaming down his cheeks like waterfalls. The hands which were holding Taehyung's began to quiver violently, just like the younger's whole body.

Why, why was he rejecting Jungkook?

Taehyung was scared. Scared because if was the first time ever he experienced such feelings. Scared that they wouldn't be strong enough. He was scared of what was going to happen if he got together with Jungkook. He was scared about how the younger would think of him when they got to know each other better. Would people from school start to hate him because he was gay, because he was together with an unpopular boy? He was scared because he knew all to well how people can break you with only using words. And besides, there was still kookie97, right..?

"I-I'm sorry, b-but I can't do this.." Taehyung whispered while the brightness of the fireworks lightening up Jungkook's already tear-stained face. The younger didn't reply anything and just withdrew his hands in a quick motion before standing up while wiping his never ending tears.

"J-Jungkook?" Taehyung croaked but when the brunette looked at him, guilt hit the older like a punch to the gut and he felt nauseous.

Those shining and twinkling eyes he fell for so many times already were now full of sadness, disappointment and pain. A small sob escaped the Maknae's lips as he took a step back, legs shaking because he was crying so hard. Taehyung was quick to get up aswell and softly grabbed the younger's hands but Jungkook instantly pulled away and took one more step backwards before turning around and running off.

"Jungkook, wait!" Taehyung wanted to follow him but a hand on his chest stopped him from doing so.

"Why did you reject him?" the blonde's eyes widened as he suddenly saw Yoongi standing infront of him.

"W-what's going on—"

Taehyung gasped when he saw the rest of the boys coming out of the bushes.

"W-why are you all here?" he weakly croaked out.

"That's insignificant." Yoongi growled, eyes turning dark.

"Why did you reject him?"

"I-I was scared... How would people from school react—"

"YOU CARE MORE ABOUT YOUR FUCKING REPUTATION THAN THE PERSON YOU LIKE!?" Yoongi screamed and Taehyung shivered in fear, he had never seen Yoongi so furious.

"B-but t-there's still kookie97..."

Yoongi let out a bitter chuckle, cracking his knuckles.

"Which year was Jungkook born?"

"W-what?"

"Just answer!" Yoongi shouted.

"1997..?"

"How does his mom call him?"

"K-Kookie...?"

"Good, now combine the name with the last two numbers of his birthyear. There you have your beloved idol."

Everyone's eyes widened as it made click in their heads but Taehyung's eyes were filled with horror. It was Jungkook he had been texting with all the time. The younger had known about his crush on kookie97 but still had the courage to confess to him.

"Don't even think of trying to come back to him." were Yoongi's last words before he chased after Jungkook.
