You were back home. Quicker than you thought you would be. Just as you had started 'breakfasting' he had received a message from Krystal saying she was on her way to his place.
Taehyung got all nervous and didn't know what to do, you were confused too but he asked you politely to leave.

"Let's talk this out later, okay?", he tried to smile at you but trying to cheer you up was a waste of energy.

Without saying anything much anymore you left quietly and on your way home you saw Krystal walking towards his building. She didn't recognise you since she was busy with her phone, lucky for you. And for Taehyung.

It felt strange. Taehyung had missed you, he had told you. He wanted to be with you again but there was Krystal standing in your way. Obviously you knew that you were being the evil itself by letting him cheat on Krystal but once you had let your feelings out there was no way in containing them anymore.

Wendy was waiting for you at home with her smiley face. She knew what had happened but she quickly noticed your negative aura too.

"What happened?", she asked you after you had sit down next to her.

"We... had a beautiful night. But got interrupted by his... girlfriend."

"She caught you?", Wendy almost screamed full in shock.

Immediately you shook your head, calming her that Krystal hadn't seen you.

"Krystal was on her way to his place and he... sent me off.", your head hung low at this humiliation.

"No way!", Wendy jumped off.

Sadly you nodded, thinking about how pathetic it was of you to crawl back to him. But there still was this feeling that all of this had been mutual, he wanted it too. Not only you.

"He said he'll come later to talk it out."

"And you said okay?"

"I didn't say anything. I'm disappointed and humiliated. Somehow I'm mad at myself somehow at him, my feelings are so complicated I know I love him but he keeps on hurting me. What should I do, I have no idea!", the despair in your voice was obvious to hear.

Wendy thought about it before putting her arm around you and hugging you tightly: "Make him realise that you're better for him than Krystal. Man, you both belong together!"

Even though small tears had formed on your cheek you were nodding and smiling. Wendy was extremely good at motivating you. And didn't fail to motivate you and get you ready for your probably most difficult problem in your whole life.

Just when Wendy had left you slowly felt the dizziness kicking in. It had been chasing you the past weeks, non stop. You stumbled into your bathroom when the nausea hit in. There was definitely something wrong with you, you blamed in on the recent stress.

At around 8 pm you heard the bell ring. Was this Taehyung? As you opened the door you were surprised to not see Taehyung but Jimin. Your eyes widened and you felt your cheeks heating up. Your body was stiff and he noticed this awkward situation immediately.

"Can I... come in?", Jimin peeked over your shoulder to check if no one else was there.

Hastily you nodded and opened the door for him. He stepped in and put his shoes on Taehyung's spot which made your heart throb. What if Taehyung came while you were with Jimin? It would be the same situation as earlier in which he had to decide for you or Krystal. The decision about what you would do was,even though your heart didn't tell you so, was clear already.

Being all comfy Jimin let himself fall on your sofa waiting for you to accompany him. Still shocked by his presence you slowly sat down.
For the first few moments both you didn't say anything. You sat in silence not knowing the right words.

"Have you been with Taehyung, last night?", Jimin said quietly while playing with the pillow.

"Jimin!", you moaned at the edge of crying. This feeling of guilt was unbearable and you had no idea how to ignore it, it was too strong.

"No, it's okay. Really you can tell me.", he shrugged as if he already knew and as if he didn't really care.

But he did and the pain in his eyes was obvious. Making you want to crawl behind the sofa and never come out again.
Slowly you nodded your head. He was nodding to, accepting your answer.

"See... I'm sad. I really am, I wish I could go inside your soul and fix it, you know? Fix it so that you don't love him anymore and you can be happy, with me, because I really love you ", he sighed and had to steady himself before continuing: "I should be mad at you I know that. And if I'm honest I am, a little bit. The fact that you were only using me is really tearing me apart but I'm trying to look behind that and rather face the reason behind it. I haven't experienced that kind of feeling before but I'm trying to imagine it. To understand you and accept this situation. Even though we'll never work out romantically... I don't want to let you alone. Taehyung will hurt you again, I hope you're aware of that. And I want to stand by your side, as your friend."

You were facing the ground trying to prevent yourself from sobbing when you suddenly felt his strong arms around you.

"Let it out.", he whispered hugging you tightly.

And just when you were about to 'let it out' the bell rang. Shocked you looked up at Jimin who's eyebrows were raised. Quickly he understood who that was.

"Stay here.", you demanded him and went to the door.

Taehyung was leaning against the door and as usual he seemed pretty drunk. Without saying anything he was entering your apartment. He looked wasted. His eyes were red and his hair was messy. The scent of alcohol was filling up your nostrils.

"Don't come in.", you mumbled standing in front of him.

He ignored you and was about to put his shoes off when he saw Jimin's pair of shoes on his place. At first he looked at you and then he quickly threw his shoes off and tumbled into the living room where Jimin was already standing and ready to leave.

"What are you doing here?", Taehyung yelled at Jimin.

"Visiting my ex-girlfriend. And you seem to do the same, visiting your ex - girlfriend.", Jimin snapped at him.

Taehyung laughed and let his head fall back as if there was any reason to find this funny. There was none and the sting in your stomach became more painful by second.

"Well, you need to leave right now.", Taehyung leaned against the wall and smirked at Jimin.

"She told me to stay so I'll rather do that.", Jimin had his arms crossed but managed to stay calm.

"Really?", he laughed again and looked at you and back at him: "You want to stay even though she cheated on you and even had sex with me last night after confessing she never cared about you?"

If you were able you would have pressed the button to die at this very moment. Taehyung was drunk, but this was no excuse for what show he was pulling here.

"Fuck off!", you grabbed Taehyung but failed to make him leave.

For him this was ridiculous, a weak girl pulling him. He didn't move a centimetre.

Jimin looked as if he was about to explode and you just wanted to kneel in front of him and ask him for forgiveness. Things were doing so great until Taehyung came.

"Jimin just leave.", Taehyung shook his head at Jimin who had his fists balled already.

"I don't want him to leave.", you were standing right in front of Taehyung.

Taehyung raised his eyebrows as he was looking down at you.

"Don't try to revenge on me for this morning. You're only using him again.", Taehyung mumbled making your body shiver.

He was right. And everyone in this room knew. Quietly Jimin passed you to go to the front door and put on his shoes. You ran after him, watching him putting on his shoes.

"Jimin-", he interrupted you by putting his finger on your lips.

"It's okay. I'm still here for you. Because you're important to me, okay? Take care.", he kissed your forehead before he finally left. Leaving you standing there perplexed.

As you walked back into the living room you saw Taehyung already spread on your sofa. He looked confident and happy with what just had happened. He won - as usual.

"I hate you right now!", you yelled at him standing in front of the sofa.

"No, you don't. But hey continue! Let your anger out.", he said calmly out of sudden.

"Why are you treating me like your puppet? Don't you have any morality?"

He stayed quiet but his eyes were still locked with yours. The gaze he was giving you was unreadable.

"Say something!", you yelled at him.

"What should I say? You're right! I'm being selfish!", he sat up because his voice was rising now too.

"You're hurting me! I... I thought last night was mutual. But then Krystal came and all of sudden I'm trash again! What did I do to you?"

Silence. For a few moments you were quiet and just staring at each other. Right now you wished you could read his mind. What was he thinking? The question of what you did to him was seriously muting him. You had caught a string but you didn't know which one exactly.

"I should leave.", he stood up but you stopped him.

"No, you should talk!"

"I can't.", he shook his head and tried to pass you but you stayed resistant.

"That way it'll never work out, Taehyung, don't you realise that?"

"It won't work out ever! Don't you realise that?"

His words hit you. It felt like a million shots had been shot at you and you couldn't die or hide - you had to endure the pain.

"Was last night a lie?", you stepped a step back.

"No.", he shook his head but still couldn't look at you.

"What the fuck Taehyung!", you yelled at him again.

He rose his voice now too: "I don't know! This is not only difficult for you, it's even more complicated for me! Since the day I visited you I'm so confused this is not good! We only harm each other, I should leave."

Quickly you grabbed him again:"Taehyung it could be easy. You know how!"

Finally he looked up at you but his eyes were empty. Slowly he shook his head, succeeding in letting your heart bleed out again.

"It's for the better if I leave", were his last words before he opened the door and left.

You were back at zero.
