That Should Be Me

By: Justin Bieber

"Wh-what?" Jeongguk managed to choke out, eyes watering as he forced a whimper back in his throat.

"I said let's break up" Taehyung said, voice shaky as he tried to look away but Jeongguk shook his head and cupped his face, forcing him to look at him. Hand shaking as he stroked his cheekbones, tears welling in his eyes as he can feel himself weakening in every way possible.

"You're joking" Jeongguk stated, a hopeful glint in his eyes as a smile grew on his lips, one that doesn't reach his eyes. Taehyung just shook his head, removing his hands as he stepped away and Jeongguk can feel every piece of hil breaking at that moment.

"What a funny joke Taehyung" Jeongguk started laughing, the one that has his nose scrunching up like a bunny but there's something wrong with it. Because along with his lively laugh, the way his head throw back as he clutched his stomach, tears are glistening his eyes, cascading down his cheeks.

Taehyung balled his fist at that, not liking how hurt the younger looked but this needs to be done. He really loved Jeongguk—loved...but right now...right now he doesn't know anymore.

Jeongguk's laughs turn into whimpers, the hand placed on his stomach now on his chest as he dropped on the floor with a soft thud, right infront of Taehyung. His breathing heavy and ragged as his bruised hand tried to cover his mouth, cannot even bring himself to look at the brunette right now.

"I-im sorry Jeongguk. I just—got tired, so tired I think I can't continue this relationship anymore. I-im starting to lose myself" Taehyung started, and Jeongguk only whimpered more, curling himself into a ball on the floor, bringing his legs in his chest as Taehyung sat in front of him, tears also on his eyes.

"H-how can you? You promised me! You promised me you will never leave me" Jeongguk uttered, biting his shaky lips as he sniffed.

"I know Jeonggukie. But you see—once a relationship is not working like it should be, it will only grew tiring and fake" Taehyung explained, trying to touch the ravenette but he only inched away, and the brunette can only lower his hand on defeat.

"How should it work?! How should it fucking work?!" Jeongguk snapped, bloodshot eyes looking at Taehyung with pain, sorrow and question that even Taehyung can't answer.

"You fucking promised that you will never leave me! I am an already broken boy Tae, and you promised to remove my edges, my sharp sides that can hurt you so we can work together! You're only shar-sharpening them right now!" Jeongguk harshly wiped his tears as he looked at Taehyung whose eyes are casted down, hands shaking along with his shoulders, looking defeated.

Jeongguk licked his lips, blinking his tears as he slightly crawled towards the older, holding one of his hand as he cupped his cheek.

"Does he make you happy?" Jeongguk's voice break in the end, can not even believe that this is really happening. That he really have to let go of his Taehyungie. Taehyung, however, froze at that, wide eyes looking at Jeongguk.

"I knew about him. And I certainly knew that's the reason why you asked for space and now breaking up with me"

Taehyung only felt worse, biting his lip as he suddenly hugged Jeongguk, muttering a string of sorry's as the boy break down in his embrace.

"I'm so sorry Jeonggukie" Taehyung said but Jeongguk shushed him as he smiled through his tears, smiling at him reassuringly as he kissed his forehead.

"I love you" Jeongguk whispered before placing a chaste kiss on his lips, the brunette feeling the tears that escape the other's eyes that caress his cheeks.
