episode 3

It’s been years since renowned actors (and exes) Kim Taehyung and Jeon Jungkook have last spoken to each other.

They meet again as the main leads of an upcoming BL movie, and it goes about as well as you would expect. But, who knows? Maybe along the way they don’t have to act in love.

If Taehyung and Jeongguk were to describe in colors; they would be found on the opposite side of a spectrum. They never see anything eye to eye, And they couldn't stand each other’s presence. The sky might split into half someday, but you would never see them acting civil.

But everything began to change when they became roommates in the second term of the College.

A modern Romeo & Juliet with a twist — Taehyung and Jungkook’s houses may not be at war (far from it, actually, given that they’re planning an arranged marriage between their two sons to solidify a corporate merger), but the two boys have enough enmity for one another to rival a generations-long blood feud.

Featuring: Jungkook as a Juliet who’d rather swallow poison than be married off to the pretentious Kim heir; and Taehyung as a Romeo who may be just as lovelorn as the titular character, but would rather drive a dagger into his own chest than admit it.

So not like Romeo and Juliet at all, basically.

Jungkook has lived his life bleakly; always has been a pawn to the king he serves.

Taehyung comes in the picture, showing him a life filled with love, painting his world into a beautiful shade of gold.

Alternatively,

Jungkook's king instructs him to kidnap Taehyung, wanting to exploit Taehyung's ability to make plants grow with his magic. Along the way, both of them set aside their differences and fall in love.

And, to be honest, he rushed there to get away from all the people and because he needed to tell Jimin he just bumped into Jeon Jungkook himself.

“Jeon Jungkook? As in high schooler Jeon that was in love with you and declared his love outside the school Jungkook?”

“He’s not a kid anymore, but, yeah, the one and only.”

“Who is Jungkook?”

(...)

“What? I want to know… What happened between you and this Jungkook guy?” Yoongi was genuinely curious.

Where at the tender age of fifteen, Taehyung’s father teaches him that trusting people only gets you hurt.

And Jeongguk is a boxer with a bad shoulder and anger issues.

Taehyung helps with both.

Or: Taehyung doesn’t know what to expect when Jeongguk stumbles into his tiny medic office needing stitches, but it sure isn’t falling for him so easy it feels like breathing.

Taehyung has spent the last couple years solely focused on his career. It wasn't anything special, but he was good at it. He had completely sworn off dating, too damaged by past heartbreaks to even think of falling in love again.

He thought it would continue on like this forever until his best friend Jimin gifted him the trip of a lifetime. Little did he know he'd be sharing this vacation getaway with none of other than his first and most devastating heartbreak, Jeon Jungkook
