There are about eighteen thousand bars in Seoul. You know this because youâve just googled it. Out of curiosity? Not really. Just because you couldnât wrap your head around the fact that out of all the bars in Seoul, all the eighteen thousand bars in Seoul, Jungkook had to pick the one where your ex is currently working.Â
Not to blame it on Jungkook, poor guy. There was no way in hell he could know this and youâre sure that if you told him, heâd be crushed, since, according to him, heâs been trying to muster up the courage to ask you out for months. To be fair, you didnât even know Jimin had left his partner, Seokjin, and his own bar to start working behind the counter again. Not that it's any of your business, anyway. He can go to hell for all you care, especially after dumping your ass three days before your four year anniversary for some random girl he met on that stupid fucking bar of his.
That fucking stupid bar he clearly didnât even own anymore. Jokeâs on him.
It broke your heart in a way youâre not sure itâs ever going to heal. He meant the world to you, all that butterfly bullshit and everything. When he left you, it felt like your world was falling to pieces. You shared a life, even shared a home. A small apartment near his stupid fucking bar, you were so happy when you two finally moved in together.Â
Building intimacy takes time, compromising to someone elseâs well being and happiness costs more than only your time. Learning how to share your space, your insecurities, your feelings, your everyday life. That shit takes time. Giving yourself to a person takes more than that. It takes courage.Â
You gave all of that and much more to Park Jimin. But you regret doing so with every fiber of your being. Learning to live your life again without having him in it was one of the hardest things youâve had to do so far.
You had your share of revenge after fucking his best friend, Taehyung, and making sure to tell him about it when you went to your apartment to get his stuff back. If you felt like shit, you had to try to make him feel at least one percent of the heartbreak you had been feeling. After that, you heard that he and Taehyung got into a physical fight and had cut ties.Â
It was definitely not a very peaceful break up experience, both of you were extremely proud people and could not stand losing. It took you a great amount of therapy sessions in order to stop dreaming and thinking about him 24/7.Â
Do you still believe in love after that? Youâre not sure, probably not, but it doesnât mean you canât have some fun. Jungkook was a very sweet and flirty distraction in the middle of your heartbreak. Not to mention the guy is hot as fuck, but right now, you swear you could just punch him in the face.Â
Because out of all the bars in Seoul, here you are. At the one your fucking nasty ex boyfriend works in.Â
As soon as you walked in, you felt something was off with this one. It felt like the universe itself was trying to spare you from this experience. Of course, you didnât listen to your intuition, especially because Jungkook told you a friend of his has been talking wonders about the drinks from this specific bar.Â
Once you looked over at the bar, you saw him. For a split second, you froze. He looked as gorgeous as ever, dark locks obscuring his eyes from where you could see. You didn't allow yourself to feel any type of way with the sight of him, you were over him, you definitely didn't want to go back to the pit where you recently came out of, thank you very much. He was too busy with whatever he was doing at the moment to notice you, fortunately. You just rushed over to Jungkook, locking your arms out of nervousness, leaving him quite giddy about it.Â
Did you ask him to leave and look for another place to spend the night? No.Â
Should you have done so? Maybe.
But you wouldn't deny yourself the satisfaction of showing Jungkook off to him in the place Jimin works. It didn't matter that only looking at him made you miss him more than words can ever say, you know that heâd feel pissed out of his mind. Youâd deal with your feelings some other time.
âLooks nice, huh?â Jungkook asks you with a sweet smile hanging on his pierced lips, bringing you back to planet Earth.
You nod faintly, showing him a warm smile.Â
âThere's a balcony back there, do you see it?â He asks again, holding your hand now. You werenât even able to react to Jungkookâs gestures properly, you were too lost in your thoughts about Jimin. âItâs got a very nice view of the city, if anything, we can take some nice photos here. You look hot, by the wayâ.
âOh- I- Thanks, Jungkook. You too, by the wayâ, you tried smirking. âA-Are we getting a table or what?â
You usually donât get thrown off by his compliments. You love when it happens, of course, but youâre usually good at flirting, you see he gets slightly puzzled as to why would you react like that all of a sudden. Â
âAre you okay, Y/n?â He asks you, caressing the back of your hand with his thumb, a little concern can be sensed in his voice tone.Â
âOf course! Why do you ask?â You reply, tilting your head a bit, trying to sound convincingly confused.Â
You would not simply ruin your date by mentioning your ex boyfriend is the bartender heâs been listening compliments about. Â
âNevermind⊠Why donât you go ahead and grab us a spot on the balcony? Iâll do the honors and order our drinks. Any preferences?â
âSurprise meâ, you challenge him, squeezing his hand before letting go of it, still trying to hold the confident demeanor heâs used to.Â
You head over to the balcony, not really looking over at the bar, trying your best to forget about the fact that Jimin was here and could notice youâre here too at any moment. The most annoying thing about this situation is that youâre feeling too nervous about seeing him. Much more than you should be.
So what Jimin is here? Youâre over him, remember? Get your shit together. Youâre here with Jungkook, enjoy your date.
You try distracting yourself by scrolling on your social media, not really paying attention to anything in particular, just trying to keep your mind away from Jimin. You canât really understand why you feel almost shaky, maybe thatâs how your body reacts to someone you hate.Â
You only had the courage to look into his direction again when you felt Jungkook was coming back to your table, with a warm expression adorning his beautiful features, holding two drinks in his hands. It would have been the beginning of a nice date, if you couldnât see Jiminâs eyes shooting daggers in your direction from above Jungkookâs shoulder.Â
Yes, heâs seen you already. Of course heâs seen you.Â
Naturally, since you noticed Jiminâs eyes on you, you were simply not able to relax. Jungkook was acting like his normal charming self, completely unaware of what was going on inside your head. You simply nodded whenever it felt like he was waiting for a reply from you.
âWhy are you nodding? Did you hear what I said?â He asks you, with an embarrassed half smile, making you feel slightly guilty for not giving him the attention he deserves.
Damn you, Park Jimin.
âSorry, Kook, I zoned out for a second. What was the question again?â
âI said the restrooms here are amazing and that you should see itâ, he repeats himself, pointing to the drink in front of you, he continues. âI need to use the toilet again, by the way, do you want another mimosa?â
âOh, sure. Thanksâ, you reply with a gentle smile, the nicest one you could flash at him.
You honestly liked him. He was a very good person, from what you could tell. Unfortunately, you completely lost the focus on this date, maybe it was your fight or flight instincts taking over your thoughts, but the only thing you could think about was Jiminâs burning gaze on you and how badly you wanted to escape.
You were pretty sure you got over him, heâs your past. Thatâs a fact. He is past, thereâs no other way. The idea that he can look at you like youâre doing something wrong by moving on with your life makes you feel livid, thatâs all there is to it.Â
Heâs always had the talent to make everything be about him, but this time around it genuinely pisses you off. This whole situation was actually just a coincidence, heâs the one needing to get over himself.
âSo, whoâs the idol wannabe?â A voice startles you.
A voice you know all too well.
Following the sound of this voice with your eyes, you contemplate the one and only Park Jimin, the man who cheated on you. The once love of your life. You refuse to allow his presence to affect you in any type of way, though.
âIdol wannabe?â You snort, crossing your arms in front of your chest. âOh, you mean my date? Wow, Mini, you sound so frustrated when you put it like that⊠Cause, you know, youâre an ex idol wannabe tooâ.
âVery funny, babe. Whoâs the guy?â He jerks his head in the direction Jungkook went, with an authoritative expression on his face.
Like he had any right to be asking you questions about your life.Â
âWhatâs that, Mini? A public jealousy display?â You figured the best way to deal with him was by not giving him what he wants.
âIsn't that what you wanted bringing him to the place I work?â
âI canât believe- Why do you think I care about how you feel or donât feel, Park Jimin-ssi?â You blurt out, trying to keep your composure as much as possible. The last thing you want is to make a scene. âItâs funny that you think Iâd give myself the trouble to make you feel jealous. I didn't even know you left The Waveâ.
âAnd you expect me to believe that?â He cocks his brows, eyes not leaving your face. âYou're a character, Y/l/n Y/n-ssiâ.
âAs Iâve stated before, Park Jimin-ssi, I do not care about anything thatâs related to you anymore. Iâm sorry if my presence here feels like an insult or whatever, but, you know⊠You should have moved on with your life by now tooâ, as you spit these words at him, you see his eyes flickering with an indignation he would not be allowed to lash out the way you know he wants to, because, after all, this is where he works. âSo, if you excuse me, my date can come back at any second and I have no interest in letting him know youâre my exâ.
He grimaced, not uttering another word. That is so unlike him, itâs funny... and kind of weird. He has quite the explosive demeanor and you know you were kind of harsh to him right now. You almost feel guilty, but then you remember how humiliating it was finding out about his infidelity.
What he made you go through was way worse.Â
Placing a Daiquiri glass in front of you on the table, he smirks, but you see his smile does not really meet his eyes, covered by a darker cloak you couldnât actually explain where it came from.Â
âAlright, Y/n-ssi. Hereâs your drinkâ, bowing to you, as he takes his leave. âYouâre looking as gorgeous as ever. Good luck with your idol boyâ.Â
âJimin-ssi, thatâs not really what we orderedâ, you raise your voice tone slightly, just so you made sure he could hear you.
âOh, I know, babe. But we both know youâre not really much of a mimosa womanâ, he answers, the irony lying underneath every single one of the words that came out of his mouth, turning to you again. âI know you very well, unlike your date, apparently. Donât worry, this oneâs a little more expensive, so, itâs on meâ.
He blinks at you, turning on his heels again, this time around not taking another glance in your direction again, leaving you with an almost bittersweet taste in your mouth, that only goes away when you see Jungkookâs smile getting near you again.Â
He sits in front of you again and you honestly donât understand how you allowed Jimin to get under your skin for even a split second. Jungkook was everything you could ask for a guy to be: stunning, into you and not your complicated ex.
âA daiquiri?â He asks you in a gentle tone, knitting his brows together. âSorry, I guess the bartender didn't understand what I saidâ.
âNo. Itâs fine, Iâve started drinking this one alreadyâ, you state.
Itâs kind of cute that he paid attention to you to a degree in which he noticed the drink you were having. Heâs a sweetheart, but Jimin was right, at the end of the day. Youâre not much of a mimosa girl.Â
âDon't worry, heâs the one who made the mistake⊠Iâm sure heâll bring you a new oneâ, Jungkook turns in what you know is Jimin's direction, with his right arm raised, gesturing for him to come over to your table. Then, he turns back to you, with a sweet smile hanging from his pierced lips. âHeâs comingâ.
Jungkook calling him over was something you simply didn't expect to happen, you didn't have time to react, to think about something to say or for a reason to stop him. You figured you couldnât have a very strong reaction here, since for all that matters to your date, this guy is just the bartender, not your ex-boyfriend from a relationship that ended really badly.Â
Naturally, it doesnât take Jimin more than ten seconds to get to you, and knowing Jimin, he would stop anything he was doing so he could come over and be petty, if possible.Â
âCan I help you?â You hear his voice, but refuse to turn your head in his direction.
You know heâs looking at you, though.
âWe have actually ordered a mimosa, but, maybe there was some confusion, and we ended up getting a daiquiri instead. I was wondering if thereâs something we can do about itâ, Jungkook had both sides of his mouth turned up in a likeable smile, as he gazed in Jiminâs direction.Â
You know Jungkookâs niceness would only piss Jimin off even more.Â
âOh, yes, the daiquiri. Thereâs no mistake, actuallyâ, Jimin mimics the smile Jungkook flashed at him, but you know his isn't a heartfelt one. âI think it suits her better than a mimosa. Anything else?â
âIâm sorry?â Your dateâs brows snapped together and the niceness in his smile dissolved into disbelief. âHow did you come to a conclusion about the type of drink she prefers?â
âOh, believe me, I know itâ, Jimin snapped back, in a controlled tone.Â
Jungkookâs eyes darted in your direction, kind of looking for some sort of endorsement to what he was saying to Jimin, obviously baffled by the boldness of this guy. He, obviously, didnât find the same kind of expression on your features. It didnât take him too long to understand that something was off, in a split second, you saw the realization dawning in his face.
You felt cold to your bones, concentrating on using every single bit of what was left from your self control in order not to run away from this bar and leave both of them bickering over the goddamned daiquiri.
âWell, she seems pleased with your choice of drinkâ, Jungkook tried, clearing his throat. âThank you for your service, I guess. Keep up with the good workâ.
Jimin bows to Jungkook and then to you.Â
The atmosphere Jimin leaves behind is so heavy you can almost touch it, you feel the air weighing all around you and Jungkook, who was focused on playing with the napkins on the right side of your table. You open your mouth, but the words just refuse to leave your lips.
You don't even know how to start. What could you possibly say in a situation like that? Most importantly, would you be able to actually explain anything without bursting into tears in front of Jungkook? Not only did you run into your ex for the first time in almost a year, but also he had to come over and make a scene in front of the guy you were seeing.
It was only your second date with Jungkook, after going out for a very nice dinner, in which the two of you couldnât stop smiling and laughing at each otherâs jokes. If only you two had gone two any other of the eighteen thousand bars in this city, you would have never seen Jimin and youâd also not be feeling this terrible uneasiness in your chest.
âSoâ, Jungkook breaks the silence, but you see heâs still looking at his hands as if those damn napkins were the most amusing thing in the world. âYou apparently know each otherâ.Â
âWe do. But honestly, I donât really want to get onto this, Jungkook. Sorryâ, you confess, not really knowing if youâre angry or simply dejected by this encounter.
Jungkook could have also just not mentioned the fact that it was clear you and Jimin have some kind of history. Why do men have to be so clueless all the time? Honestly, it feels like a curse liking men sometimes. The whole situation was so off putting, you truly just wanted to go home, it didnât matter Jungkook was hot and the nicest guy ever, Jimin was able to kill the mood for you completely.
You see Jungkook is fighting some sort of internal battle and you feel extremely bad for being the reason behind it.. He had been the sweetest person you had a date with in a very long time. You obviously were not ready to try dating again, Jimin was still all over you, and unfortunately, not only figuratively speaking.
"I'm so sorry for dragging you into this mess", you finally break the silence, making Jungkook look at you again. "I honestly don't feel so good right nowâŠ"
"Yeah, I imagined. All I can do is wholeheartedly tell you that it's alright if you wanna go home or something. I don't really know what happened between the two of you, but I can tell something definitely happened", he sympatized and you could tell he was being genuine, not really knowing why, you just saw it in his eyes.
You feel like going home, for sure. Just laying in bed for a couple of hours and crying your eyes out would be the only medicine for this. Maybe, tomorrow after work, youâd need the âbest friend plus romantic sad movies comboâ, but youâd be alright. Unfortunately, seeing Jimin after this time apart was not as easy as you thought. You just knew that the lump in your throat wouldn't just disappear after installing itself there once again.
Looking deep into Jungkook's eyes, searching for some sort of judgment or resentment, which you do not find, you muster up the strength to be fully honest. If nothing, he deserved it.
"I do want to go, Jungkook", you confess, taking his hand, that rested upon the table, into yours and squeezing it lightly. "I'm really sorry for being a louzy date tonight. I promise I'll try to make it up to you".
"Hey, don't worryâŠ" He says softly. Jungkook squeezes your hand back, but lets go of it and pulls it back, leaving yours hanging on the table by itself. "I have kind of waited a long time to ask you out, but I can wait some more. Date number one was amazing, but we canât always win. I just want us to have a good time together. I'll let you make it up to me, it's fine".
âIâm really sorryâŠâ
âItâs fineâ, he shakes his head, a soft smile hanging loosely on his pierced lips, sounding convincing enough to you. He is genuinely a good person. âBut for out next date, youâre the one who should be asking me out. Deal?â
He extends his tattooed hand to you, still beaming at you.Â
âFair enoughâ, you shake his hand back, feeling a little better for his reassurance. âDealâ.
You must be the most stupid person to ever walk this earth and you know it. Losing your chance with a guy like Jungkook is one of the most ridiculous things you've ever put yourself through. But what can you objectively do? You just ran into your ex and it was awful. You just wanted to cry curled up onto your pillows until you forgot, once again, what the sound of Jimin's voice felt like against your ears. You were in no mood for small talk and flirtation anymore. It was better ending the night like this, than being a statue around him, right? And if he said you could make it up to him later, you could really try to.Â
You know that if you weren't feeling this blue, you'd be embarassed as fuck. Maybe, tomorrow, you will.Â
Jungkook insists on paying for your drinks, saying that you could pay on the next time. Good to know that he's really counting on a next time and he didn't say it just to be polite before. Fortunately, he doesn't really offer to take you home and you call yourself a car. All you wanted was to be alone with your thoughts for a while.
This whole situation wouldn't be this awful if you didn't feel Jimin's eyes on you the whole fucking time. You knew he was watching the whole scene unravel in front of his eyes with an indescribable delight.Â
Indeed, he won this time. But you could only hope that this was the only battle he'd win from now on. You needed to find your way back to yourself.Â
And you will, itâll just take you a little bit of time again.
The light breeze gently touches your skin, as you feel the warmness of the rising sun delicately kissing your hair. The star emerges from behind the hills, as you stand in front of them, tall and strong, deeply rooted to the depths of the earth.
Suddenly, you hear a very loud noise, sounding like a distant bell. Looking around you, youâre not able to find the source of it. Itâs not possible that itâs coming from one of the trees, is it?
You hear it again, this time, longer and more annoyingly depriving you from enjoying this beautiful day out in the meadows.
But then, you realize this is a dream. And as soon as the realization hits you, you wake up. You hate being an occasional lucid dreamer, who wakes up as soon as you notice youâre in a dream. It has prevented you from fulfilling many of your fantasies with your celebrity crushes because you always feel like the scenarios are too good to be true.
Then you hear the unblessed noise that woke you up one more time, noticing itâs been the sound of your doorbell this whole time. Finally finding your phone, after your hands grop on your bedside table looking for it, you see itâs 3:27 in the morning. Why the hell would anyone ring your doorbell in such an ungodly hour?Â
Well, a burglar wouldnât ring the doorbell, right? You reason, trying not to freak the fuck out.Â
The doorbell rings one more time, then you hear what seems to be a muffled attempt at verbal communication. Should you go to the door? Should you call the cops? You have no idea.Â
It could be one of your neighbors looking for help. What if it was an emergency?
âMrs. Hong? Is that you?â You blurted, voice a bit shaky from the anticipation.Â
You hear another muffled response, not really understanding anything this person is saying, but you know it definitely isnât Mrs. Hong.Â
Fuck, Y/n, are you stupid? Whoever this is, now they know youâre inside!
You feel your whole body starting to tremble, heartbeat racing as the worst images possible flash through your mind. You want to go back to your bedroom, call the cops and hide under your bed until someone comes to save you from whoever is this weirdo at your doorstep. The sound of your parentsâ voice saying you were crazy for moving out of their house to live by yourself echo through your brain and you can feel the tears start brewing in the corners of your eyes when youâre able to distinguish a word from the muffled bumbling from outside your door.
You are positive you heard the person finishing their sentence with a âbabeâ. Instantly, you feel a warm wave of relaxation invading your body, in contrast with the uneasy feeling you had a minute ago. You know exactly who it is on the other side of your door. Looking at the peephole, you find the exact person you expected to see leaning against your door frame. Park Jimin. A very, very drunk Park Jimin, from what you can see.
Your hand goes straight to the door handle, opening the door with a blunt movement. When he realizes whatâs happening, his eyes land on yours and you see them turning into the shapes of small crescent moons, as a smile rests on his plumpy lips.Â
âYou almost gave me a fucking heart attack, Jimin-ssi! What the fuck are you doing here?â you bark, watching the smile disappear from his face.Â
âSorry, I swear I didnât mean to scare you! I just want to talk to you and if Iâm here, itâs your fault! I could have just called, but you fucking blocked me everywhereâ, he pants in a high pitched voice, one he uses when heâs allowing his irritating to take control over him.Â
âItâs almost four in the morning⊠Youâre clearly drunk⊠I really donât want to do this, Jiminâ, you state, pinching the bridge of your nose. âPlease, get the fuck out of here before you disturb my neighbors tooâ. Â
Slamming the door on his face, you turn on your heels towards your bedroom, but before youâre able to walk four steps in its direction, Jiminâs voice can be heard from the inside again. Only this time, he didnât have his face buried on your door and he was shouting in front of your house.
âY/n-ssi! I just want to talk to you, pleaseeeâ, and the there was a knock on your door. âY/n-ssi! Let me in, Y/n-ssi!â
You feel your blood boiling like magma in your veins, knowing you gave him the perfect weapon to use against you when you mentioned your neighbors. He knows you wouldnât want these people to talk about you, to talk about the guy who was making a fuss by yelling your name for the whole street to hear in front of your house. You know him and you know that he knows how he plays his games, even when heâs drunk. In a blunt movement, you open the door and grab Jimin by his coat, this time, dragging him inside.Â
For a second, the two of you just stare at each other. Due to the closeness, youâre able to sense the scent of his cologne, the musky one you gave him on the last Valentineâs day the two of you have spent as a couple. You hate him even more for not getting rid of whatâs left of you in him.Â
âYou wanted to talk, didnât you? So, talk!â You hiss, crossing your arms in front of your chest, feeling the need to break the silence before you did something youâd end up regretting.
He blinks, clearly still mesmerized by the fact that his lousy strategy to get you to do what he wanted worked.Â
âI saw you left not even five minutes later from that⊠Well, awkward momentâ, he wiggles his eyebrows exaggeratedly as he speaks. âYou got yourself a nice suitor, huh?â
âThe moment was awkward all thanks to you!â You fumed, unconsciously raising your pointer finger in his direction. âYou asshole!â
âWhy am I the asshole here? I just told him the truth!â He stated emphatically, with a flicker in his eyes you were just not able to identify precisely.
You were able to smell the alcohol in his breath, due to the closeness, and you felt even more disgusted to be in his presence.
âAfter cheating on me, you think you have the right to come back and interfere in my love life?â You whisper, angrily. It feels like the temperature in your house is rising, but you know itâs just your anger making you feel hot on the inside. âWhat did I do to you, Jimin-ssi? Why do you feel like destroying my life every chance you get? Just leave me alone!âÂ
You see your words have an effect on him and whatever he was about to say, you feel like your words have just stopped him from going on. He sighs loudly and when you were about to kick him out of your house, he starts again.
âWho⊠Who is he, babe?â He looked down as the question finally left his lips.Â
You almost missed him, his arms around you, his voice whispering soft words in your ears. You almost allow his vulnerable demeanor to get to you.
Almost, but you know better.
Sighing, just like he did seconds ago, you voiced.
âWhy do you even care, Jimin? You have nothing to do with my life anymore, you know?â You run your hands through your hair, nervously, looking away from him for a second. âAs Iâve told you earlier today, you shouldâve moved on by now, after all, you were the one who chatead. Own up to your mistakes, dear, youâre a grown ass man. And stop calling me babe!â
He looks at you, wide eyed after you snap at him. The fact that after all these months without seeing him, you were finally able to say everything you wanted to say to his face brought you some sort of relief.Â
âWhen I saw you today, after all the time weâve been apart, I realized that's the problem⊠I have nothing to do with your life anymore. I miss you, Y/nâ.
It's so hard to hear him saying those things. Mostly, because, deep down you know you miss him too. It hurts so bad to know that you can never have him back, despite loving him. You'd never be able to truly let go of what he did to you. Acknowledging it was the hardest part, it felt like the lump in your throat just got bigger.Â
âYou can't change that unless you have a time machineâ, you said under your breath, more to yourself than to him.
âI can't believe he took this away from me too⊠FuckâŠ", he snorts, rubbing his face harshly with both of his hands.â
âWhat are you trying to say? Who is he?", you ask him impatiently. You would not have him just throwing crazy and riddled information at you at this point. "Are you talking about Taehyung?
âNo. It's not about Taehyung. Nevermind", his eyelids drop as he mumbles.
âReally? Is that how shitâs gonna go down? You come to my house to pester me in the middle of the night like you had the right to still be in my life after what you did? And you talk in riddles, like, if there's something I still need to know, now's the only time!â You stop, trying to find the right words to try to get to him as much as he did to you. He didn't move, his eyes were still closed as you spoke. As he made no move, you felt like you could continue. âYou know whatâs funny, though? I guess if things had worked out with miss thing, you wouldnât be here right now. So, thank you for showing me youâre just a lonely piece of shit. It's good to know you're in pain tooâ.Â
âYou still have no idea, do you?â He snorts, mouth agape as he eyed you.
âOh well, I don't know if I do. Please, enlighten me, Jimin-ssi. Did the illuminati make you cheat on me or something?"â Scorn spewing out of your words.
He looks at you once more, his eyes burning with longing. It just made your blood boil even more inside of your veins.
âIâm sorry, Y/n. I canât even say how all of that broke my heart in, like, one million piecesâ, he whimpered lowly, his head down as the words left his lips, not really entertaining your mockery.
You snort.Â
âHow all of that broke your heart? Have you considered that if you had not cheated, weâd still be together? Have you thought about how all of that broke my heart?â You poke him angrily on his chest, feeling the unwelcome misery settling once more in your chest once you heard Jiminâs words. âIt was all your fault, Jimin! If weâre not together right now, it's your fault! You broke my heart!â
You vomit all those words at him, holding back the years with every single bit of strength left in you. His eyes travel up to meet yours as you spoke, Jiminâs features are clouded by something you canât quite name. Is it regret? It must be, itâs the only thing that makes sense. Maybe heâs genuinely sad about it too, but it honestly doesnât matter. Or maybe there was really something he was trying to tell.Â
Whatever it is, hee deserves to deal with it on his own. You donât have to allow him to drag you back to the hole of pain you were able to come out of, very recently, by the way.
âYouâre right, Y/n-ssi. It was all my fault. I shouldnât have come here, I donât know what I was thinking.â He sighs, running his hands through his dark locks that fell to the sides, looking partially messed, in a very attractive way. âAgain, Iâm sorry. For everything. Maybe, someday-â.
âYeah, sure. It doesnât matter anymoreâ, you cut him short. You just canât do this anymore, you canât listen to him whining. Not without bursting into tears and you definitely didn't want to cry in front of him.Â
On the other hand, the attraction you feel for him, right now, standing before your front door, his features barely lit by the only source of light coming from your bedroom behind you. You hate him for still looking great, for still messing with you, for still being the most handsome man youâve ever seen. You hate yourself too for feeling like that about him, after all this time.
âIs⊠This guy. Is he nice to you?â He breaks the silence, his voice as soft as feather touch against your ears.
âHeâs just a guy, Jimin. But just stop⊠Stop askingâ, you mutter. âPlease, just goâ.
He nods, still gazing at you with his magnetic dark eyes.
âI hope you know thisâ, he points to himself and to you, as he jerks his head in your direction. âUs. Me being here. It means I still have very strong feelings for you. Very strong feelings I canât control, I guessâ.
âI donât wanna know, Jimin-ssi. Reallyâ.
âIâm sorry, but by the way you still look at me⊠Iâm sure there's still something there. Maybe youâve done a nice job locking it away, but I know itâs still thereâ.
âI donât-â, you stop yourself, and turn to him with a louder tone. âJust fucking go!â
The control you had over yourself so far was gone, you just want him out of your sight. Hopefully, out of your mind too.
When it finally seemed like he was ready to leave, he turned to you once more, gazing intensely into your eyes. Before you had the chance to tell him the get the fuck out for the last time, he had his arms around your waist and his lips found yours; hungrily.Â
His kiss was exactly the way you remembered. Intense. Passionate. Breathtaking. Right. It just felt like home. His tongue pursues yours in a fervent twirl and your tongue corresponds in the same intensity. His hand travels upwards, resting on the nape of your neck, spreading a pleasurable warm sensation where it touched.Â
He pins you up against the wall, his lips not leaving yours for a split second. He pressed his body against yours and you wrapped your arms around his neck, enclosing any space that could be left between your body and his. He felt so warm against you and the way his touch felt against your skin made it impossible for your brain to think about anything other than the right now and how much you longed for him.
âIâve missed thisâ, he said softly, his plumpy lips against yours. âSo muchâ.
He presses his lips against yours once more, but now you realize you can taste the soju on his tongue. Then, you come to your senses.
Youâre missing your drunk ex-boyfriend in the middle of the night. This is the man who cheated on you. The man who made a fool out of you and didnât give a fuck about your feelings. You swore you wouldn't allow him to touch ever again. Here you are, breaking your own promise. Worse part is, maybe he wonât even remember anything that was said or done when we wakes up tomorrow.
In an instinctive impulse, you push him as hard as you can, trying to create as much distance as possible from Jimin. You don't face him long enough to know what happens to him, besides the confused look on his face after forcing him away from you.
âJimin-ssi⊠Just get the fuck out of my houseâ, you start babbling, but trying to control the wobbliness in your voice.Â
You hate yourself for being so weak, all it took him was a kiss and you almost dropped all the defenses youâd worked so hard to build up.
âY/n, just hear me out, please⊠I wanna tell you everythingâ, he cried out, his somewhat wobbly voice coming from behind you.
âJimin, please!â You murmur, imploring. âJust leave me alone.
And there was silence. It felt like time had stopped, you just focused on not allowing the weight on your chest to take over you. You donât know how long it takes, but you hear your front door being slammed, then all you could do was allow yourself the tears you were holding back to roll down your cheeks in an attempt to release this pain from your chest.
