The Devil's Work || Yoonseok

30: Spill

"Jimin. It's really none of your business."

"Oh trust me, I know that. But whatever you and Yoongi have going on is affecting his friends a lot more than you think. Yoongi is getting irritable and slightly impulsive. I need you two fix it. Pronto." Jimin said, Hoseok saw Jungkook nodding along behind him as he sipped his drink.

"Do you promise not to bring this up with Yoongi?" Hoseok asked, Jimin nodded, sticking out his pinky, Jungkook doing the same. "Pinky promise." He said, Hoseok rolled his eyes as he wrapped his pinky around theirs before pulling away.

"Spill."

"Give me a second." Hoseok said, sighing as he leaned back in the booth, he didn't know if he should tell Jimin and Jungkook the whole story, he could trust them, sure. But the more he told, the more they might shift to Yoongi's side. "Yoongi and I have been fighting over this guy."

Jimin gasped as he turned to look at Jungkook. "Love triangle?"

"No."

"Oh."

Hoseok shrugged as he continued. "You already knew this, but Yoongi doesn't think of us as a couple, he thinks of us as some kind of fuck buddies, so he doesn't care about fucking around." Hoseok said, Jimin nodded, opening his mouth to speak but shaking his head and letting Hoseok continue.

"I'm possessive. I want Yoongi for myself because he is my tie. But Yoongi is interested in this other guy. He wants to have sex with this guy but I don't want him to, I want him for myself."

"And Yoongi hates that," Jungkook said, Hoseok nodded, "We had so many fights for so long over this guy. And the other day, I guess I took it too far..." Hoseok trailed off, this is the part where he decides to tell them about the curse and risk them hating Hoseok just like Yoongi hates him.

He looked at the two and saw nothing but encouragement. He had their full attention, and they weren't rushing him to say anything. He turned away from them, looking around the bar rather than at the two friends. "I took it too far and put a curse on him...the guy, I mean."

"Curse?" Jungkook asked, Jimin also giving him a questioning look. Hoseok nodded, "They can range from okay to bad to really bad, some even so bad it can kill a person, or bring them close to death." Hoseok said, he wasn't going to go in detail about his curses, sometimes they can be...gruesome.

"Well, what kind did you put on the guy?" Jimin asked, they were asking questions like Hoseok is reading them a bedtime story. "Really bad. One that could've brought him close to death if Yoongi hadn't found him."

Jungkook made an O shape with his lips as Jimin hummed in acknowledgement, they must understand how bad it is for Yoongi to be the one to find him. Are they on his side right now? "What happened then?"

"Jin took care of him while Yoongi yelled at me, it went on for awhile until he finally...snapped, I guess. He told me he was done with me, and that he wants nothing to do with me anymore." Hoseok said, sighing, "It shouldn't have hit me as hard as it did. But it reminded me of my past and I kinda..broke down." Hosoek explained, Jimin nodded as he finished his second drink, reaching for the third.

"That's what happened at Tae's place?"

"That's what happened..." Hoseok said, Jimin once again nodded, he looked at Hoseok and then to Jungkook before looking down at his glass. "You know. Not to throw Jungkook under the bus.."

"Oh no."

"But I understand the possessiveness." Jimin said, "I'm not sure if you were around at that time, but I got really upset with Jungkook because of all the time he was spending with Tae rather than me. I made my baby cry a couple of times as well. It was shitty of me but I was just scared. Scared of losing Taehyung. Especially after all the fights we had before this."
