Misunderstanding

"Hyung....."  I choked out.

"What are you doing here? I thought you'd still be sleeping in your room?"

"She came out to meet me," Yoongi answered for me.

My mouth had run dry and I couldn't speak.

Did he see Yoongi kiss my cheek? I hope he didn't misunderstand that there is anything going on between Yoongi and me.

"Hyung, I-"

"Hani and I were just about to leave."

Yoongi moved from behind me to stand next to me while he pulled me closer to him by my waist.

"Yoongi!"

"Play along before I kiss you right here," he whispered in my ear.

I froze as my eyes widen and flutter while staring back at Yoongi.

My virgin lips had never been kissed before and I sure as hell didn't want Yoongi to be my first. I didn't want Jimin Hyung to see either. I immediately shut up while closing my lips tightly again.

Yoongi grinned and waved towards Hyung before grabbing hold of my hand and dragging me away. We brush pass Hyung, but he grabbed my free hand by the wrist and started to pull me away from Yoongi. Yoongi only held on tighter. Both holding on to me and neither one was planning on letting go. It was a scene straight out of a Kdrama, only I never thought it would ever happen to me. They were both pulling and it was starting to hurt. I was afraid my hand and wrist were going to break off.

"Guys! Let go of me! You're hurting me!"

They both immediately let go at the same time which caused me to lose my balance. I started falling but Hyung was quick to grab hold of me.

"Are you okay?" He asked me while he held onto my waist.

I nodded and broke free from Hyung's embrace.

"Let's go home. It's too late for you to go anywhere. Your parents wouldn't be too happy if they found out."

"You can cover for her. Hani's mine now so run along to your little girlfriend," Yoongi answered again for me.

I turned to look at the mint hair boy who seems to be having fun while playing around with my feelings. He knew how much I liked Hyung, what my plan was, and the reason behind my plan. I had begged him and asked him for help and yet, here he was poking at my already aching heart.

How could he easily just say that I was his in front of Hyung?

I didn't want Hyung to misunderstand, but Yoongi was purposely making him misunderstand us. Before I knew it, my eyes welled up with tears as I looked deep into Yoongi's eyes. He was enjoying me being hurt. This must be his revenge on me for the other day when I kicked him. I took the medicine from Yoongi's hand while my shaky voice replied to him.

"L-let's hangout another time Yoongi. Thanks for the medicine. I won't forget our deal."

Before I could turn away from Yoongi, my tears left my eyes as they streamed down my face. Yoongi seemed to notice them too because he grabbed my shoulders and turned me around to face him again with what looked like worry in his eyes. My moist eyes stared back. My lips were trembling and I couldn't stop the tears from silently falling. I was glad that he turned me to face him because Hyung didn't see me cry.

"Stay with me for just a while then. Let me walk you home," Yoongi said with his hands still tightly on my shoulder. It was as if Yoongi read my mind. I didn't want Hyung to worry so I called out as happily as I could to him without turning away from Yoongi.

"Jimin Hyung, you can go first. We'll be on our way home shortly. Yoongi will walk me home."

************

***Jimin's POV***

I gave Hani the last of the medicine earlier so I decided to go to the nearby drugstore for some more medicine. When I was about 10 feet away from the store, I noticed a girl who looked familiar rushing out of the store.

Hani?

I opened my mouth to call out her name but stopped when I notice a man following behind Hani. He grabbed her wrist and has turned her around to face him. I furrowed my eyebrows to see clearer who the man was. It was the same guy from earlier that had met with Mi-Young and me.

How does she know him? Mi-Young said that she never even told Hani about Hoseok and Yoongi.

He made eye contact with me and he had a smirk on his face before quickly turning his attention back to Hani. He was whispering something to Hani that I couldn't hear. I fasten my pace to get closer to them. I saw Hani slightly turning her cheeks towards Yoongi. Her eyes were closed and Yoongi's eyes soon made their way back to mine. I stopped in my track the moment I saw his face move towards her cheek. The whole scene that played before me left my heart breaking and I was boiling with anger. He had just kissed her on her cheek.

His eyes never left mine as he said something to Hani that I couldn't catch.

"Hani?" I called out to her.

She turned around with a shocked expression.

"H-hyung....."

"What are you doing here? I thought you'd still be sleeping in your room?"

"She came out to meet me."

I glanced at the man before me, annoyed that he was answering for Hani. I didn't ask him so why is he butting in.

"Hyung, I-"

"Hani and I were just about to leave," Yoongi interrupted once again answering for her.

Yoongi moved from behind her to stand next to Hani while he pulled her closer to him. Did I mention that my blood was boiling from watching all this play out in front of me?

They were walking away from me, but I grabbed Hani's wrist. I am not about to lose against Yoongi. She will be going home with me.

"Guys! Let go of me! You're hurting me!"

I quickly let go, not realizing that I was hurting her. I was too angry. She was about to fall so I quickly grabbed her waist.

"Are you okay?" I asked her while trying to calm down my heart from holding her in my arms.

She nodded to answer me that she was fine before she left my arms.

I used her parents as an excuse to get her to come home with me. I didn't want to see her with Yoongi anymore. Somehow, I get a bad feeling with Yoongi. He looked like he had an utter motive with Hani and I didn't like the way he looked at her.

"You can cover for her. Hani's mine now so run along to your little girlfriend,"

I had to control myself from punching this guy.

Is this why she only saw me as a brother? Because of Yoongi?

Hani had turned away from me and was talking to Yoongi.

"L-let's hangout another time Yoongi. Thanks for the medicine. I won't forget our deal."

Deal? What deal do they have going on?

"Stay with me for just a while then. Let me walk you home," Yoongi had asked Hani.

She's not going to let Yoongi walk her home, would she? I'm right here.

"Jimin Hyung, you can go first. We'll be on our way home shortly. Yoongi will walk me home."

How much more is she going to hurt me?  My poor heart couldn't take anymore so I just turned away from the two.

"Don't come home too late," I called out behind me and walked back home in tears.

She choose Yoongi over me....

***Yoongi's POV***

"L-let's hangout another time Yoongi. Thanks for the medicine. I won't forget our deal."

I caught a glimpse of her tears. I grabbed her shoulder and turned her away from her Hyung.

This idiot. Why is she crying? He's is going to see her cry and he'll worry and then start questioning and then he's going to find out everything.

I stared down at the tiny girl in front of me. Her eyes looked at me and her silent cries once again reminded me of myself. The one who I hated the most.

*flashback*

"Yoongi Hyung!!" Hoseok was running towards me. He caught up to me and leaned down and grabbed his knees for support while catching his breath.

"What's up Hobi? Why are you running so fast?" I patted my best friend on his back while he was breathing heavily.

"I... I have.... some really... exciting news... to tell you," he said in between his breath.

"Okay, breath properly first before telling me," I chuckled at him.

"I'm..... I'm....." he breaths out excitedly.

"You're what?"

"I'm.... getting engaged!"

The smile that was plastered on my face soon disappeared.

"You're getting engaged? To who?" I asked with a heavy heart.

"Mi-Youngie. Our parents both agreed to it and they asked me how I felt about Mi-Young. I've always liked her, Hyung. You don't know how happy I am right now."

I couldn't believe my ears. Hoseok, my best friend, was getting engaged to Mi-Young. My heart shattered as Hoseok rambled on about when the engagement party was and how he doesn't know how to confess to Mi-Young how much he likes her.

"Why aren't you happy with me Hyung? I thought you'd be the most excited with me? I didn't tell anyone. You're the first person I told. Mi-Young doesn't even know about the engagement yet."

"I..."

I couldn't answer Hoseok. My eyes were getting watery and I didn't want to cry in front of Hoseok, so I just ran. I ran as fast as I could away from Hoseok. I turned off my phone and didn't even bother going to school for a few weeks.

I had run away to my family's little vacation house. I needed to sort out my feelings before I go back to face those two who I call my best friends. They were going to end up together while I'm going to end up alone. It won't be like how it used to now and it hurts.

When I finally saw them again, after my failed attempt to sort out my feelings, I couldn't stand looking at Mi-Young. It was hurting me to look at her, so I acted mean and cold towards her. I hated myself for acting like such a child.

"Yoongi Oppa, what happened to you? Why have you changed so much?" She silently wept in front of me while grabbing onto my hand. Hoseok was behind her. He didn't say anything and just watched on as I yanked my hand out from hers.

"Don't touch me. You belong to Hoseok now."

"But Yoongi Oppa, we're still friends though aren't we? Why are you treating me like this?"

"BECAUSE I LOVE YOU!" I screamed. I tightly shut my eyes and my lips were quivering.

"W-what did you just say?" Mi-Young quietly asked.

I lowered my head with my eyes still closed. My heart was breaking with every breath that I took. I slowly opening my tearful eyes.

I looked past Mi-Young to the man behind her. I stared into those eyes, those beautiful chocolate color eyes.

Because I love you...
