Resolution
Maybe it's time to end this all.
With shaky hands, Taehyung grasped the circled rope in his hands as he released a breathy cry.
He forgot what time it was. All he saw was a dark room being lightened by the sun about to set. Every painful memory, every hurtful conversations, it all flash backed to his mind in a split second.
'So this is what happens if you decide everything's over'. he thought. "I- I should've written a note." he sadly smiled.
Everything was set, all he needed to do was to jump. But for some reason, something is stopping him from doing it.
"No-Nobody is going to notice," he negatively assured himself. "I-It'll be painful, but it will all be over soon."
Creak.
"What the--"
A sudden push made Taehyung tumble down the ground. His sides hurt because of the sudden impact, but at least there was no rope around his neck.
His eyes were still damp with tears, so his eye sight was a bit blurry. Nevertheless, he tried to stand up from the floor to go back up. Maybe it wasn't somebody or the wind pushing him, maybe it was just his knees that went soft, causing him to fall down side first on the floor.
Taehyung planted both of his palms underneath him to push himself up, but before he can even add strength to push, a sudden warmth surrounded his body. He didn't know what or who it was, although after that happened, he began to break down in tears.
"What the fuck are you doing?" a person asked behind him, tightening his grasp around Taehyung's body. "I've been looking for you at the dormitory. I'm lucky I knew where you lived, I got to stop you from trying to--Tae!"
"Don't hold me! I need to disappear, I want to!" Taehyung cried, shoving the arms of the person behind him away as he reached for the chair.

"You don't know what you're saying. You can't disappear."
Taehyung hardheadedly continued to push the person behind him away while hugging the chair. The person was right, he wasn't thinking properly right now. All he wanted to do was to be gone.
"Why?! Why do you want to die?!" the person shouted for Taehyung to hear him. The room was filled by his painful sobs, it was hard to calm a person who was mentally breaking down.
"I-I fucked up my life. Everything is against me... don't touch me! You wouldn't understand!"
As he said those words, Taehyung went up the chair in a hurry, back to position he was in earlier. He even accidentally scratched the person's cheek and arm in the process.
"T-Taehyung, don't do this. Please..." the person begged, slowly walking closer to the boy who's life can be gone in a second. He also began crying, not because of the scratches he received, it didn't matter to him even if he was wounded a million times. The thing making him crying right now is that somebody he loved wanted to end his life, right in front of him.
"D-Don't come closer." Taehyung warned, slowly inserting his head to the circled rope.
The person turned his hands into fists and shouted with all his sincerity.
"I thought you were my family?! My parents left me alone, but that didn't matter to me because you told me that you are my family. You gave me love more than they could ever give. And now you're leaving me as well?! Please, don't break your promise!"
After hearing the other's scream, Taehyung finally went back to his senses and frighteningly went down the chair slowly. "I-I'll n-never leave y-you..."
"Then why? Why do you want to kill yourself right in front of me?" Jungkook softly asked as he cried unto his palms. Taehyung ran to his direction and hugged him tight. The moment he did, both of them collapsed to a sitting position on the floor, he leaned his head to Jungkook's right shoulder and both of them cried all of their feelings out.

"I-I'm sorry, I'm sorry..." Taehyung sobbed to Jungkook's shoulders, the other's hands circled their way to his torso and brought him close, making them shift to a more comfortable position.
Jungkook silenced for a second as he ruffled Taehyung's hair. "No, I'm sorry." he said, thinking about the unwanted actions he did.
"What do you mean?" Taehyung asked him in confusion. "It's not your fault. I should be the one sorry, you have the right to run away at that moment when you saw us. I should've just told Jimin."
His innocent remark made Jungkook bit his trembling lips. Just for the sake of not messing this up anymore, he shouldn't tell.
Or maybe he should.
"Tae," Jungkook backed away slightly to put some small distance between them. "I-I... you need to know something."
"What?"
"I-I think, something happened... a f-few nights ago." Jungkook admitted, unsure how to start explaining everything.
"What happened?" Taehyung asked. The other couldn't help but to feel his guilt swallowing him up whole.
Jungkook gulped a lump on his throat and continued. "The night when we got together and fought... the next d-day I woke up on the bed with E-Eunbi."
He expected to hear a shout from Taehyung, maybe a slap on the cheek would do. He closed his eyes and waited for an impact, but a few seconds later, nothing happened. All the other showed was a blank gaze.
"...so... you're saying that..." Taehyung started to talk slow, digesting every single word that Jungkook admitted right in front of him. "Is it what I think it is?"
Jungkook can't even look him straight in the eye as he confessed. "T-That's what she said."
"Oh."
His lack of remark made Jungkook worry. Taehyung wasn't like this, he was a jolly person that easily cried over something light. But why is he not mad? He has the right to.
"Please slap me, beat me with your fists. Anything, I deserve it." Jungkook offered as he bowed down a bit.
"No."
"What?"
"I wouldn't dare to hurt my family," Taehyung's steady lips changed into a slight smile. "Tell me the whole story from your point of view. I will listen to you."
"Why aren't you mad? You should be!"
"I think I learned my lesson when we were at the courtyard. You know what is missing from our relationship, kookie? Communication. I'll listen to your words."
Jungkook blushed. 'He's definitely the one I want to spend a lot of my time left with.'
"O-Okay." he coughed. "I-I was drunk and I had no clue about what happened next."
"But do you think you actually did it or not?"
"Definitely not. I even think of you when I'm sleeping, how can somebody like her replace you?" Jungkook said as he ruffled the other's hair.
Taehyung looked embarrassed by Jungkook's sudden cheesy remark. His face looked so cute that Jungkook couldn't stop his urge to lean in and place a kiss on his lips.
-
Two weeks after that, Jungkook told his friends about their relationship. Taehyung did the same for Jimin. Even though with the haters giving dirty looks because they were holding hands in public, many supported their relationship.
It was all at peace for them.
But what they didn't know if that somebody was holding a paper in their hands, waiting for a moment to approach.
i think this fucked up, seriously. ;; is there somebody out there who is still curious on how this thing would end?
