TROUBLE | VKOOK

13.The exhausting man

Jungkook spent the next night crying and that kept happening for the rest of the week. It was such a bad time for Jungkook to be like that, so unproductive since it was a very pressuring month at school, filled with tons of homework. All he could do was lie in bed, the mattress swallowing his body.

It was the first time in his life that someone had rejected him and his feelings so openly. Well, he had kind of been rejected, but not really. Taehyung had admitted that he liked him but he had denied being in love with him which translated into rejection in Jungkook's head.

Jungkook had found the courage to confess his feelings. He had left himself exposed to Taehyung, but yet Taehyung had managed to make him feel insecure for having feelings which was something so natural.

In some of Jungkook's crying sessions, the thought of Taehyung liking him had popped into his head ready to calm him down, but it had actually only made it worse confusing him even more. He couldn't make sense of the situation. He could not quite understand what Taehyung's issue could have been with being in love with him. Taehyung himself had said that he was into him. Did he feel guilty of not having as deep feelings for Jungkook as the boy did? Was that the matter?

No matter what Taehyung really felt, Jungkook had taken the situation pretty badly having gotten his pillowcase wet from his tears. Jimin had tried to comfort him by telling him that he had at least tried. It was always better to try and fail rather not try at all.

Truth was that the only thing that could make Jungkook feel better would be Taehyung coming there to tell him he loved him back.

Jungkook had not even realised how much he had fallen before that. He had though it was just a big crush, but maybe it was bigger than.

It hurt so much to be rejected like that because there was still hope for more in his head. He could not understand what was actually going on inside Taehyung's head.

Jungkook happened to meet Taehyung randomly when he was walking back home from school.

It was like nothing had ever happened for Taehyung. He was still so charming making Jungkook almost feel special with his words, but the boy didn't know how to feel about them because no matter what the man was saying, it still felt like rejection to him.

"I actually want to ask you something." Taehyung bit his bottom lip and then ran his tongue over it. "There's this guy, Lucas, my ex-roommate if you remember him."

"Yeah, I remember him." Of course he did. When he had first met Taehyung they had seemed very close but he ended up becoming the main reason for Taehyung's moving...

"Yeah, I do." Jungkook frowned, his arms crossing against his chest.

"He's interested in you."

Jungkook blinked. He wanted to let Taehyung explain, because why would he care? He had confessed to him just a few days ago, hadn't he?

"And I told him that we could have a threesome if you're up to that." Taehyung said in a lower voice, his eyes glued on the boy's lips, but with no intention of kissing them.

Jungkook had not seen that coming at all. There were a lot of things he wanted to ask, but there was one specific thing that he would die if he didn't ask about. So he tried to look unaffected by the suggestion."I thought you said he was interested in me. Why a threesome then?"

Taehyungs smirked. "Because we're exclusive, aren't we? I'm not letting you fuck another guy if I'm not there."

Why did Jungkook blush at that? He was so pathetic. He should have been mad at Taehyung for being so possessive even after having rejected the his feelings.
