"Someone wrote an article about what happened. They were at the trial."
You looked at Taehyung who was coming back from the kitchen, your heart beating fast in your chest. He stilled at your words and suddenly turned pale, his body getting tensed.
"What's wrong ?" you asked him, your voice shaking more than what you expected. He gulped hardly, fidgeting.
"Do you know who wrote it ?" he ignored your question, staring at you anxiously.
"I- No I don't, why ?"
He didn't answer but you noticed blood had left his face slightly as he bit his lip. You got up, stepping towards him, but he stepped back shaking his head.
"I'm sorry Y/N, I think it's my fault, I'm so sorry," he started stuttering and you frowned.
"What do you mean ?"
"I- I owed Yoongi for something he did for me some time ago, and he asked me to find a way to let him come to the trial. I couldn't say no, we're not friends so I couldn't argue and I just thought he wanted to be there to not feel excluded since most of us were here. I didn't know he would do something like that," he said, looking at your reaction in fear.
"How do you know it's him ?" you eventually asked after a few seconds.
"We know he studies journalism and he was at the trial. I'm not sure but I feel like it's him."
That's when every pieces came together and you understood all those times he had seemed suspicious. The first time you met him, the conversations you had had during the trip, how he was always around. He was just a random guy overly interested in what happened to you and even after getting to know you a little, he still decided to write something without telling you.
"I'm sorry Y/N, I should've said no-" Taehyung got you out of your thoughts, but you cut him off, shaking your head.
"It's alright, you couldn't have known." You tried to smile, turning around to hide your face. Anger was growing in you as all you wanted to do at this moment was find Yoongi and ask for explanations.
However, you also just wanted all of this to be behind you and making a fuss about it would just remind you over and over again of what you tried to forget desperately. That's why you decided to drop this, not even bothering to talk to Yoongi but secretly hopping one of the guys would.
And the day Taehyung came back looking overly satisfied and you noticed Yoongi had blocked you and all your friends on social media, you felt like things were just right.

You were in front of Jungkook and Taehyung's door, struggling to hold all the snacks you had bought for the three of you in your arms.
This wasn't the first time you came here without telling them as you had found back your habits of High School, hanging out with them at every chance you got. However, this time, you had been knocking for a few minutes on their door and no one would come open. That's why you decided you could just get in, tired of holding all your snacks by yourself.
When you opened the door, everything was silent. You would almost have thought they weren't home if the door hadn't been unlocked.
"Taehyung ?" you called, looking around the apartment. You were about to put down everything you were carrying when a movement caught your attention.
You turned around only to be face to face with Jungkook coming out of the bathroom. Topless.
"Y/N ?" he said, stilling, his wet hair falling slightly in front of his eyes. The next second, your snacks were on the floor without you realizing you had let them go.
"I'm sorry, I came in because I knew someone would be there, I didn't mean to intrude-" you mumbled as you gathered your snacks, feeling your cheeks turn red.
He immediately kneeled down next to you to help you pick up everything. You couldn't help but let your eyes wander on his torsos and his abs and the towel wrapped around his hips-
"It's okay, don't worry. This is like your home too," he said and your eyes finally left his body to look back at his face. You noticed his red ears and you suppressed a smile as you got up again, putting the snacks in the kitchen, Jungkook following behind you.
"I mean, I don't want to bother you-"
"You don't," he smiled softly, a silence settling between you as you looked at each other timidly. You tried to ignore how good he looked, only focusing on keeping your eyes on his face. "Why are you staring at my face ? Is there something wrong ?" he asked after a few seconds, touching his face with a frown.
"No, you're per-" you cleared your throat, embarrassed, "Nothing's wrong."
TAEHYUNG'S FOCUS
When Taehyung arrived to the kitchen, he found Jungkook looking like he just showered talking with you as if he wasn't half naked. Taehyung couldn't help but let out a chuckle, watching the both of you in silence.
He saw the way you looked at each other, the blush on your cheeks and the way your bodies seemed to long for each other. And as his eyes went back and forth between Jungkook and you, he shook his head slightly, a sigh escaping his lips.
How could the both of you not realize how in love you were? He wondered why you wouldn't accept it, why you wouldn't accept things hadn't changed and you were still deeply in love with each other, maybe even more than before if possible.
"Am I interrupting ?" he eventually let out, a smile on his lips. You immediately stepped away from Jungkook even though you were already a few steps away, like a child caught doing something bad. He watched the both of you turn red and he would be lying if he said he didn't enjoy seeing you so embarrassed.
"Don't mind me, I'm just going to let you two spend some time together," he chuckled, taking one of the snacks you brought before leaving the room.
The tension in the room was making you feel uneasy once you were left alone with Jungkook again. You cleared your throat to end the silence, but Jungkook talked before you could think of something to say.
"I- I'm gonna put some clothes on, it's getting cold," he said hurriedly, leaving the room before you could say anything.
You didn't miss your last chance to stare at his naked back, appreciating this last glimpse of what you used to have.
