Married My Brother's Cold Hubby ~ Taekook
Even If You Hate Me~
Rain lashes against the windows. The sound fills the room, heavy and cold. Jungkook sits on the edge of the bed, dressed in the remnants of his wedding suit, head bowed. Taehyung stands near the mirror, his reflection pale and rigid.
Kim Taehyung
You should… take the bed. I’ll sleep on the couch
Kim Jungkook
I’ve slept on worse. You don’t have to pretend to be kind.
Kim Taehyung
It’s not kindness. It’s decency.
Kim Jungkook
Decency? From your family? That’s rich.
Kim Taehyung
You think I enjoy this either? Having my parents whisper about how I married my brother's omega?
Kim Jungkook
I didn’t plan this, Taehyung. I didn’t plan to be left standing alone in front of a thousand people. I didn’t plan for your brother to run away with someone else and drag my name through the mud.
Kim Taehyung
Don’t say his name
*Tense*
Kim Jungkook
Why not? It’s the only name your family remembers when they look at me.
Kim Taehyung
You think you’re the only one who lost something? He was my brother, Jungkook. He disappeared and never came back. I had to face our parents every morning, pretending not to hear them cry behind closed doors.
Kim Jungkook
Then we’re both left behind. Congratulations.
Kim Taehyung
You don’t have to be cruel.
*Hurt*
Kim Jungkook
I’m not being cruel. Just honest. Cruelty came from everyone else — your father’s disgust, your mother’s fake blessings, and this sham of a marriage that binds me to their hate.
Taehyung says nothing. Jungkook exhales shakily and looks at the bed again
Kim Jungkook
You can take the bed, plenty places to lie down
He takes the blanket and walks toward the couch. Taehyung watches him go, his heart tight but his pride heavier.
Kim Not Jeon Jungkook ~
Kim Seok-Jin
You’re quiet again, Jeon Jungkook. Is silence the only thing you can offer this family now?
Kim Taehyung
💭Kim Jungkook not Jeon Jungkook
*Sigh**
Kim Jungkook
I didn’t realize speaking would make you forgive me.
Kim Seok-Jin
Forgive you? You should be asking us for forgiveness every day you breathe under this roof.
Kim Namjoon
Your husband ran away, Jungkook. You ruined our family name, and you still have the audacity to sit here like nothing happened?
Kim Jungkook
Yoongi left me, Mr. Kim. I didn’t ask him to disappear
Kim Seok-Jin
A good partner doesn’t make someone run away
Kim Seok-Jin
Don’t, Taehyung. You weren’t here when the reporters surrounded our gate. You didn’t see the headlines calling your brother a coward for leaving his omega.
Kim Taehyung
And yet you blame the omega instead of your own son
The table goes still. Jungkook’s spoon clinks against his plate
Kim Jungkook
I'm done eating.
Kim Seok-Jin
As if we invited you to do so.
Jungkook stands, cold and composed. He doesn’t look at any of them
Kim Taehyung
Jungkook wait..
Kim Jungkook
Don’t. I don’t need your sympathy, Taehyung
He walks away. Taehyung watches him go, his chest tight with something unnamed — guilt, anger, longing.
Taehyung went after him but still Jungkook shut him out.
Kim Taehyung
You didn’t eat much. I brought tea. It might help you sleep.
Kim Jungkook
You think I can sleep in this house?
*Said coldly**
Kim Taehyung
You can’t keep starving yourself. They’ll only use it against you
Kim Jungkook
I don’t care what they use. I’m just waiting for them to get tired of me and throw me out.
Kim Taehyung
You think I’d let that happen?
Kim Jungkook
And why do you care?
Kim Jungkook
I’m the reason your brother’s gone. Because your parents hate me. Because this house feels cursed every time I breathe.
Kim Taehyung
You didn’t make him leave, Jungkook. He did.
Kim Jungkook
And yet I’m the one everyone spits on.
Their eyes meet — tension thick, unspoken desire simmering beneath the anger. Jungkook’s lips part, breath shaky.
Jungkook’s eyes flicker away; he grabs the cup, his fingers brushing Taehyung’s — electric, unwanted, too much
Kim Taehyung
💭Fine you can keep acting coldly towards me but I know you will break soon, Jungkook
I'm Your Husband Now Not Him~
Taehyung finds Jungkook outside, kneeling by the roses Yoongi once planted.
Kim Taehyung
You're still taking care of it
Kim Jungkook
Someone has to.
Kim Jungkook
Your Dad threatened to uproot it if I stop taking care of it.
He wipes dirt from his fingers, refusing to meet Taehyung’s gaze.
Kim Taehyung
Jungkook, you're not his anymore ~ You're married to me now
Kim Jungkook
Stop— you don’t know what you’re saying.
Kim Taehyung
I know exactly what I’m saying. Every time I see you sit at that table, silent while they tear you apart—every time you flinch when someone says his name—I want to tear the whole world down just to make you breathe again
Long silence. Jungkook finally turns to him, eyes shimmering with both grief and hate.
Kim Jungkook
Taehyung, I hate you and your family ~ don't dare tell me who I belong to and what I need to do
Kim Taehyung
I think that's too late for that.
Jungkook sighed heavily and went inside ~ Taehyung follows him in.
Kim Jungkook
You shouldn’t keep coming to me like this, Taehyung
Kim Jungkook
Because your parents look at me like I’ve already seduced you.
Kim Taehyung
You think silence makes it better? You think pretending we don’t feel anything fixes what’s already broken?
Kim Jungkook
We’re not supposed to feel anything! You’re my husband’s brother!
Kim Taehyung
He’s gone, Jungkook.
Kim Jungkook
He's still my husband
Kim Taehyung
I'M YOUR HUSBAND, JUNGKOOK!
Kim Taehyung
He left you. He abandoned you. How long are you going to keep holding on to a ghost?
Taehyung stares at him — angry, heartbroken.
Kim Taehyung
You think that’s living? Sitting here every day pretending you don’t bleed?
Kim Jungkook
And what do you want me to do? Replace him? With you?
The word echoes, raw and desperate. Jungkook’s eyes widen, pain flashing through them
Kim Taehyung
Why not? You think I don’t see the way you look at me sometimes? You think I don’t feel it too?
Kim Taehyung
I’ve known since the night I found you crying in the hallway, whispering his name like a prayer you hated yourself for saying.
Kim Jungkook
You don’t understand what it means to be unwanted in your own marriage. To wake up every morning next to someone who swore they loved you—then disappeared without goodbye.
Kim Taehyung
And you think I don’t know what it’s like watching you love someone who never deserved you?
Silence. Rain pounding outside. Jungkook’s lips tremble.
