Jungkook overthought and overthought.

Until he came to a conclusion.

Sitting in his bed while looking up to the ceiling as if it were the most interesting thing in the world, he just thought.

The last few days, he started thinking more and more about Taehyung.

Everything seemed to remind him of him.

The ceiling, the bed, the desk, the closet, the colour blue, the colour red, the colour pink,... no matter what it was, everything he saw made him see Taehyung in his head. Ridiculous, huh?

Jungkook personally didn't know how it happened.

How a single thought could turn into something so tremendously serious.

Was he being overdramatic?

But he knew exactly what he was feeling, it was the same feelings he had felt for her, if not, even stronger.

Her, Lee Bora.

A love that he had thought was real, but turned out to be unrequited and a literal lie.

Of course he was over that now, he was immature, too trusting and naive.

But she was his first love and his first heartbreak and he would always remember the pain he had felt, it wasn't easy to deal with.

He didn't want it to happen again.

Luckily he had Taehyung by his side to mend his hurting heart, he had been a huge help for him.

And as if on cue, he started seeing Taehyung's face in his mind again.

Those wide, beautiful puppy eyes. That soft, boopable nose with that cute mole. Those perfectly pink, plump lips with that adorable mole on his bottom lip. Those long, pretty eyelashes...

Jungkook caught himself smiling like a dork and let himself fall back in his bed, sighing loudly.

This couldn't be happening.

He couldn't go around liking someone who would never like him back!

Taehyung would probably immediately reject him and their friendship would be ruined, and so would Jungkook's happiness.

Because he didn't only value Taehyung as a potential love interest, he also valued him as his best friend who supported him and helped him through life, stopped bad influences and made him feel cared for.

And who would he be to throw all that away?

Just for a selfish, little crush?

I can't tell him about this.

If I do, I'll lose him. I'll be heartbroken and this heartbreak will be a lot worse than my first one.

In fact, I don't think I'll ever get over it.

So no, I can't do this to myself.

I'll just try to not raise suspicion, he can't know about this. I'll get over it anyway, I'm a teenager. Not to mention the fact that he's a boy. Maybe this is a phase afterall.

Argh, this is so frustrating!

Jungkook ran a hand through his hair and poked his tongue out in annoyance and as he felt his thoughts drift away to Taehyung yet again, he groaned in frustration.

Was he doomed to like people who didn't like him back?

°○●○●○°

"Okay, so what did you wanna tell me?" Taehyung sat himself on the brick wall near school as he handed over a black pen to the boy sitting beside him.

The redhead next to him took it, grinning, and slipped it back into his pocket. He then cleared his throat, suddenly looking serious.

"Promise me you won't judge, or tell anyone." Taehyung nodded, slightly confused.

Jimin took a deep breath.

"Okay, so... remember my cousin? From the amusement park?"

Taehyung nodded again, not knowing how to feel. It wasn't a good feeling for sure, though.

"So, he told me something... Umm..." Taehyung listened attentively.

"He's gay.

And he likes you." Taehyung widened his eyes, his jaw dropping.

Me? But he doesn't even know anything about me...

"W-Wait wh--," he started, but got interrupted again.

"Are you cool with that?" He hesitatingly nodded, not knowing what else he could've done.

"B-But he doesn't even know anything about me...," he muttered.

"Well, I might've told him a few things about you and he said you're exactly his type and he likes you. By the way, I'm actually surprised at how relaxed you are with everything." Jimin crossed his legs and faced him.

Taehyung started thinking.

Do I tell him?

Yeah, I'll just tell him. What's it gonna do? He seems supportive.

"Uh, actually, Jimin... I'm--" The blonde was interrupted once again.

"You're gay too?" Taehyung quickly looked over to the redhead beside him, who seemed pretty careless.

"Wait, how'd you know?" His eyes hit the floor again, timidness taking over him.

"Mmh, I got a vibe. Don't ask, only took me a wild guess. I never asked because I thought you'd be uncomfortable. But turns out I was right, huh?" Jimin grinned, Taehyung reciprocrating.

That was the first time he came out to someone without getting emotional, this time he just felt... happy.

"So, have you ever told anyone?" He nodded.

"Jungkook and his mom, yes."

By the thought of Jungkook, he felt his heart take a big leap, as always.

"Ah." And suddenly, a loud iPhone ringtone could be heard.

Jimin, the owner of the iPhone, quickly checked the notification by shortly pressing the power button.

"Ooh, speaking of, that was my cousin. He wanted to know if I have told you. Now, before you say anything, hear me out." Taehyung nodded confusedly while cupping his chin in his palm.

What am I supposed to think about this?

"So, he's always been kind of a badly influenced kid. His parents aren't home very often and don't really care about what he does, so he just always did what he wanted to do without facing any consequences or feeling any remorse. But the more he grew up, the more he realized that he shouldn't be doing that.

"He came out to me a few months ago but he really doubted that anyone would come around that could catch his interest. And this is when you come in." Taehyung snapped his eyes forward.

"The first time he saw you was in the cinema, he told me you were really pretty and it was a shame he didn't get to talk to you. I don't know if you remember him, but yeah, we watched the same movie, behind you and Jungkook and he said it was cute how scared you were and stuff. And then there was the amusement park incident...

"Look, I know he probably didn't make a very good first impression on you but I can definetely see how he's trying to change, he also mentioned how beautiful your personality must be. You're like, the most kind-hearted person ever and you would be perfect for him, in terms of relationship and influence. So, what do you say?"

Taehyung bit his lower bit, furrowing his eyebrows.

Jungkook...

Forget it, Taehyung. Jungkook doesn't like you in that way anyway, this is your opportunity to get a lover.

Is this my chance to move on?

Do I really want to do this, though? Am I willing to try to move on from him?

But do I really have to try with someone who grabbed my butt when I stood in the waiting line?

But then again, he's trying to change. Maybe he's good for me after all.

Ugh, I don't know!

"B-But... we don't even know each other at all...," he mumbled, sitting up straight and putting his hands into his lap.

"Well, you're in luck because... he's transferring to our school soon!," Jimin suddenly exclaimed excitedly, clapping his hands.

Taehyung gasped.

"Wh... What? When?!," Taehyung asked, definetely not having expected this.

"Hmm... his school is closing soon, so I'm guessing in a week or two. Maybe you can get to know him better and maybe you guys can like... become friends. Or more." Jimin sent a wink towards him, making him smile slightly.

"We'll see about that... I need time to think."

The two of them finished their little chit-chat, then bidding good-byes to each other.

If this is my only chance to move on from someone who will never like me back, why don't I just take it?

There's nothing wrong with trying.

This is so surprising though, I never expected anything like this to ever happen.

Lost in many confusing thoughts, Taehyung's mind drifted off while his feet carried him along the street, back home.

He snapped out of it as he felt a vibration in his back pocket, indicating that a text message had arrived, and immediately pulled out his phone.

As he saw who the text message was from, he let out a short squeal, his heart starting to race again.

So much for moving on.

But his happiness lasted only shortly as he saw the content of the message, his face hardening.

Jungkook💘💫
