A short boring chapter~ (it's just a build up to the next chapters)

Days passed and Jungkook's been feeling more and more restless. It's like his heart is trying to tell him something but it speaks in a language that he cannot understand. Earlier when he used to look at Namjoon, his love was more than the pain he felt but when he looks at Namjoon it's pain and anger. He knows....he knows it's wrong but he's human after all.

He feels sane when he's with Taehyung but he started feeling that Taehyung was hiding something from him. It hurt to know that Taehyung didn't think of him as someone important and worthy to share his private life. It's always Jungkook who talks, gossips, vents but if he asks Taehyung to talk about his stories he refuses to do it. It's like Taehyung was building up a wall.

Was Taehyung getting sick of him? or was he just being paranoid.

Taehyung even refused to hangout with Jungkook a couple of times, but fortunately or unfortunately Taehyung agreed to come see the basketball match of Jungkook's uni. The one Yoongi was playing in....for Yoongi but Jungkook was still happy that Taehyung would come with him.

at the game~

As Jungkook watched the basketball match, he couldn't help but steal glances at Taehyung, who was sitting beside him. Taehyung looked amazing in his casual outfit, and Jungkook felt his heart race every time their eyes met. He wondered why Taehyung was being distant with him lately, but he didn't want to push him away by asking too many questions.

After the match, Jungkook and Taehyung walked with Yoongi and Jimin who were bickering about yet another thing but they giggly and cute. Jungkook felt a pang of jealousy, watching Yoongi talk to someone he used to love. He wondered how it felt to be loved so deeply by someone and then have them leave you.

"c'mon I'll drop you" Yoongi said to Jimin.

"you sure?"

"yeah"

"shit! my bag is in your car" Jimin looked at Jungkook and Taehyung.

"wait here" Taehyung said to Jungkook, "i'll be back"

Taehyung and Jimin walked away leaving Yoongi and Jungkook alone.

"what's on your mind kid?" Yoongi asked leaning against his car.

"nothing.." Jungkook hesitated.

"tell me"

Jungkook finally mustered the courage to ask Yoongi, "Hyung, what is love?"

Yoongi looked at him, surprised by the question, and then smiled softly. "Love is like a firework."

"cliche" Jungkook rolled his eyes.

"No. seriously. It's beautiful and powerful, but it can also burn you if you're not careful. It's different for everyone, and it changes with time. But when you find the right person, it's worth all the pain and sacrifice."

Jungkook listened intently to Yoongi's words, feeling a sense of longing wash over him. He wondered if he would ever find that kind of love, or if he would spend the rest of his life searching for it.

Taehyung and Jimin came back with the bag and they all bid their goodbyes and walked over to their cars.

As they got back home, Jungkook couldn't help but watch Taehyung disappear into his room, he looked like he was lost in thought. He wanted to tell Taehyung how he felt, but he didn't want to ruin their friendship. Even he didn't know what he felt.

Taehyung fell face first in his bed, staring at the ceiling with a heavy heart. He had been in love with Jungkook for what felt like forever, but he knew deep down that his feelings would never be reciprocated. Jungkook had always been kind to him, but he was clearly in love with Namjoon. Taehyung had tried to keep his distance, to not let his feelings get in the way of their friendship, but it was getting harder and harder.

He couldn't bear the thought of living with Jungkook, seeing him every day, and not being able to hold him or tell him how he felt. It was torture, and Taehyung knew that he couldn't continue like this.
