Jungkook didn't think that was a good idea. Before he said anything Taehyung handed Jungkook his phone with a new contact open. Jungkook wasn't sure about this but Taehyung had already taken the beer off hands so he could put his number in. Jungkook was debating to just put a fake number in the contact but he knew Taehyung was smart and would realise and then ask questions about why he did so and Jungkook didn't want to go through that.

He hesitated but held Taehyung's phone and shakily typed in his number then handed it back. Taehyung gave back the packet of beer and said "I'll text you so you can save my number. Please message me anytime if your not ok and need help with anything. Like if your hurt." With that Taehyung gave Jungkook his signature box smile and turned around to go into another aisle.

Jungkook sighed and went out of the store to go home. He didn't know if he should be disturbed about what Taehyung said or not. 'Message me if your not ok' why does it seem like he knows too much...This isn't good.

~*~

As soon as Jungkook stepped back in their apartment he nearly dropped the packet of beer on the floor but he knew he would in so much more trouble if he did and something broke. He went to the kitchen bench top and a loud thud could be heard when Jungkook put it down. He looked down and tried to steady his breathing again. Just as he found himself taking normal breaths, an arm snaked around his waist and his breath hitched. His stomach started searing in pain even though Joon wasn't even holding him that tight. His stomach was the most injured and it was immense. "Good job baby" Joon said and kissed Jungkook's neck while he shut his eyes. "You can go sleep now if you want" Joon said taking his arm off Jungkook.

Jungkook nodded gladly. He ached and needed rest. But he needed to inspect his bruises first and treat them before they got worst. Jungkook staggered across to the staircase. Before he got there he heard his phone vibrate from behind signalling he got a text. He turned around to spot his phone on the coffee table. He could have just continued walking up the stairs so he didn't have to walk to the table and then back to stairs but still he went and picked up his phone.

Unknown Number: Hey, it's me Taehyung. Save my number:)

Jungkook's muscles tensed up yet again. He shouldn't be in contact with Taehyung anymore. Not after everything Joon told him. "Who is it?" Joon asked from the kitchen with another bottle of beer in his hand.

"Ugh...no one. Just an unknown number" Jungkook said as smoothly as he possibly could, but even then it wasn't so smooth...

He went back to walking to his room but his phone was snatched out his hand. Jungkook widened his eyes seeing Joon reading the text. Joon's eyes shot back up at him. "It's that boy again isn't it?!" Joon fired at him. Jungkook flinched getting scared once again. He couldn't go through yet another beating...no...not in the same day.

"So now you got his contact number HUH!"

A slap landed on Jungkook's face.

No. Please. Not again. Jungkook's face was already turning red as he tried to prepare himself for another beating.

But it never came. He opened his eyes and saw Joon throw his phone to the ground and storm away. Thank god...He didn't hit Jungkook anymore. But his cheek was stinging. He looked behind to see Joon standing on the small balcony. His eyes then went to his phone laying in the floor, not broken but cracked.

I better say sorry. This was entirely my mistake. Jungkook took a deep breath before making his way outside towards Joon.

Joon was standing in the night air with his first clenched leaning against the top of the railing. Jungkook could see he was angry. "Joon" He murmured from behind him looking at the ground. "Joon I'm sorry. I-I shouldn't have given Taehyung my number. That was completely my fault." Jungkook brought his head up looking at Joon's back who wasn't responding. "Joon...I'm sorry. I shouldn't be in contact with the boy you said not to be around."

With tears in his eyes, Jungkook then stepped forward and wrapped his arms weakly around Joon's waist seeing he wasn't responding. He rested his head on Joon's back and let his tears fall down his cheeks. "Please forgive me Joon. I'm...I'm trying to be a better boyfriend. Give me another please. I...I promise...I'll stop my interaction with Taehyung. I won't speak to him anymore. I won't reply to his texts. Please give me another chance Joon...I'll be better" Jungkook pleaded helplessly to his boyfriend.

Joon finally turned around and engulfed Jungkook in his arms too. Jungkook hugged Joon back ignoring the still evident pain in his body. Joon put a hand on Jungkook's chin to lift his face up that was in his chest and kissed him. Jungkook didn't hesitate and immediately responded kissing Joon back. "I hate seeing my boyfriend with a same guy repeatedly" Joon said softly making Jungkook feel regret about being around Taehyung despite how much he liked his company.

"I only love you Joon" Jungkook mumbled in the kiss not even realising how manipulated he's become...
