He told his hyungs the lie that jimin had fabricated. Jimin realized that jungkook was still not in a position to talk about what had happened.
"Okay then.. let's go practice now. We can do only one practice round today before the evening concert starts. So let's hurry." Namjoon said looking at the time.
Hyungs walked in front and jimin walked with jungkook from behind. Jimin's suspicion was further strengthened when he saw jungkook limping. Jimin would have thought it was because of his leg had hit the door if he hadn't seen jungkook's hickies. On the other hand, jungkook didn't go to the tune of a man with a leg injury. He limped as he spread his legs. Jimin didn't want to let that know to any other member.. that's why he went to support jungkook. As he put his hand on jungkook's waist, jungkook looked at jimin silently thanking him.
They came to the stadium and started practicing. But jungkook couldn't do that. He couldn't dance with a crushed body. His steps went a lot wrong. Others understood this too. But they didn't say anything to jungkook because they realized that he was not in a good mood. But jungkook couldn't bear the pain any longer and fell to the ground crying hard. The concert he worked so hard on for weeks, he lost it all because of one mistake. Others ran to jungkook immediately.
"What happened jungkook-ah?"
"Are you sick?"
Jungkook continued sobbing despite everyone asking.
"I think his leg hurts." Finally jimin said so.
"Leg?" As namjoon asked, no one saw suga's eyes running fast over jungkook's neck, which was barely visible from the hoodie.
"Yeah, jungkook's leg hit the door. Look.. I forgot to tell you because we're in a hurry."
The manager also ran from behind. Eventually jungkook was taken to treat him and the others were asked to continue practicing. Jimin came with jungkook.
"I think his toe is crushed." That's what the doctor who examined jungkook said. The manager got a call and he left.
"Please, doctor, let jungkook rest for two days because his condition is a little difficult." Jimin took advantage of the situation.
"But.."
"Please, doctor.. Jungkook is not in good condition, so please help him. He can't dance at the concert at this time." As Jimin pleaded, the doctor realized that there was something than the wound. But before the doctor could say anything, the manager came in.
"What the doctor was saying." As manager asked the doctor looked at jimin. He couldn't take away the appealing look in those eyes.
"The thing is manager, jungkook's leg is a bit stretched and he's a little bit injured. So letting him perform in this situation is not a good thing. Because there are still concerts, if he dances like this, his condition will get worse and he may lose every concert."
"But... how do we remove jungkook all of a sudden now?" The manager's voice was restless.
"He can sit in a chair and sing, can't he, doctor?" Jimin asked as they couldn't completely remove jungkook. The doctor looked at jimin and nodded.
"Yeah jungkook can perform like that."
In the end, though difficult, they made that decision. Jungkook was mentally broken. He is a very shy person who doesn't talk to anyone much. So he locked all his feelings in his mind. The other members were also shocked to hear of this decision. Jungkook is still one of their main dancers. So the loss of him cannot be covered.
Jungkook thanked jimin with all his heart for saving him. Jimin was hoping for an explanation from the younger but he wouldn't have gone to force jungkook.
Jungkook had to sit and perform both days. It was not easy for jungkook to sing from the side while the others danced on stage. With tears streaming down jungkook's eyes from where he couldn't bear it, he had all five of his hyungs with him. BTS, ARMY, Stage, Dancing, Singing are all important things in jungkook's life. So he regretted this a lot because this happened due to his negligence.
After the first day, jungkook's pain subsided a lot. But on the second day, he had to rest because his leg still hurt.
After those two days, their London concert was over. According to the schedule, they had to go back to Korea the next afternoon. So that night they were told to stay in their rooms and rest.
It was 1 o'clock in the morning. Jungkook tried to sleep but he couldn't fall asleep. Taehyung's face always appeared in his mind. His sharp beautiful eyes, the flirty smile on his pink lips.. lost jungkook his sleep. He read the note left by taehyung again. At first he understood the rough idea of it. But then he translated it. By now he must have read that note about a hundred times.
Jungkook rolled back and forth on the bed but he couldn't sleep so he got up, put on his bunny slippers and came out of the room in his pajamas. When the heart wins in the argument between the heart and the brain, jungkook is again in front of the door of taehyung's room. He took a deep breath and knocked on the door. There was no response so he knocked again. Mmhh, but no. Taehyung had asked to see him today. And he doesn't even know if he will see taehyung again if he doesn't meet him today. That's why jungkook came looking for taehyung this late. Jungkook thought it was the last time and knocked on the door again. No, but the door didn't open.
"Maybe he's asleep. He didn't think I would be here so late." Jungkook thought so and turned back to go. At that moment the door opened and he was stopped.
"Hello sweetheart..." Taehyung said as he looked down at jungkook. Those sleepy eyes and messy hair, explained to jungkook that he was indeed asleep.
"Hi." Jungkook looked down, shyly.
"Let's go inside." Taehyung let jungkook to enter. "I thought you weren't coming. That's why I slept." After jungkook entered, taehyung closed the door and locked it. As the door slammed shut, jungkook's mind warned him to get out of there. But his body doesn't want to listen to the brain. Jungkook felt as if his feet were connected to the ground.
"Sorry... I.... busy..." Taehyung understood as jungkook muttered.
"It's ok baby. You know you're really a bunny. Seeing your face reminds me a bunny." Jungkook's face lit up with a slight smile as taehyung said. He looked at his two bunny slippers.
"Bunny?" Jungkook looked at his sandals and then at taehyung again.
"Omg! you're so cute baby." Taehyung approached jungkook and squeezed his cheek, which soon reddened.
"Your skin is very soft." Taehyung was amazed at how quickly his cheeks turned red.
Jungkook just nodded. He wanted to get to know taehyung. Ask him out why he is so familiar to him. But in front of taehyung he becomes mute.
"Looks like you're not the one talking too much. Never mind we don't want to talk too much." Taehyung said as he took off his t-shirt. Jungkook's eyes widened and a faint blush appeared on his cheeks. But without saying a word, he observed taehyung's strong arms, broad shoulders and chest, as well as his abs with his doe eyes.

~To be continued~
Don't think too much about the scene where jungkook is injured. It really happened, but my story is different than the real situation.
Also, because taehyung is a Hollywood actor, he also has a built body. He is tall.. has broad shoulders and long arms anyway. Now he has muscular biceps too. But since we doesn't know about abs, it is better to assume that he also has six packs.
