there for me (␌)

t h r e e

should i ask?

this sentace wandered in yoongi's mind for a long time.

the younger had already stopped crying, though that didn't mean he didn't need someone close to him, not that taehyung would want to pull away anyway.

yoongi slowly and carefully released taehyung, as if he were namjoon holding a glass vase.

the younger looked down at his hyung, waiting for him to speak up.

„taehyungie, what happened?"

yoongi had used the other's favourite nickname, trying to make him feel less tense.

„yoongi hyung, sit down."

the younger commanded. the shorter male was taken aback by taehyung's sudden command, though he did as he was told, wanting to know what's wrong.

„i don't know how it's appropriate to tell someone this, but, i saw jungkook-ah and jimin-ah... doing something... uh..."

as taehyung was struggling to describe what he saw, his hyung had already guessed what they were doing.

„were they... cheating
on us... with each other?"

he asked, not mentioning what he thought of, as to not disturb the younger.

taehyung slowly nodded as tears welled up in his eyes. the older softly pulled the crying boy in a hug, wanting to hide his own tears as well.
