chapter 2

"we're getting shit faced before pampering ourselves." he says, handing me a mic before typing in a song number.

the music plays and it breaks my heart even more.

"**** you asshole." I spat, glaring at my best friend who simply smiled at me.

"let it all out." he says.

"all I ask is if..

this is my last night with you..

hold me like I'm more than just a friend..

give me a memory I can use..

take me by the hand while we do

what lovers do

it matters how this ends

cause what if I never love..again?"

I let the tears stream slow down my cheeks, feeling my heart break another time.

small but strong arms wrap around my body, holding me against a well-built chest.

I sibbed and sobbed until I felt my body go weak.

"what are you gonna do now..?" Jimin asks, rubbing my arm as an act of comfort.

"tonight. one last night before I make calls to cancel off the wedding, to end things." I say, feeling Jimin shake me.

"woah, woah. let's back up a bit. maybe it was a mistake?? maybe that wasn't kook you saw, Tae." he says, watching me as I shake my head.

"I know that cherry head anywhere. plus, no one else was allowed to come upstairs other than Kook and I. that was our rule." I said, my voice breaking.

"well.. are you.. are you sure you're willing to throw 5 years away?" Jimin asks.

"I don't know, Jimin. why don't you ask him? 5 years. and he had to cheat on me two days before our wedding. our fucking wedding Jimin! how could one possibly do that??" I yelled from the top of my lungs, instantly regretting it when I saw my best friend's lower lip quiver.

"I'm sorry. I just... I can't be with someone who's not committed. sure we were together for 5 years, but all those could simply be wiped away in under a minute or two.." I say, completely drained.

Jimin squeezes my arms before giving me a warm smile.

"Let's get pampered." he says, causing a smile to allear on my face.

•••

I walk inside the house, feeling completely freshed from Jimin and I's day out.

"babe? you're home?"

and the tears are back.

I lick my lips, closing my eyes and taking a deep breath before letting it all out.

I play with my diamond ring wrapped around my finger.

"babe?" his voice comes closer.

Jungkook steps out of the kitchen with basketball shorts and an apron on.

I give him my fakest smile before letting him kiss my cheek.

"come on, I made dinner." he smiles.
