This Love We Have - jikook ff - Chapter 63: Chapter 63

Yugyeom's POV
Shit. Shit. Shit. HE caught me. Bambam caught me. I'm so doomed. Aish! Stupid Yugyeom! You should know better!
Before Jungkook, Jae Chan and I became childhood bestfriends, Jae Chan and I were first bestfriends since we were little. Both our parents were business partners so we became friends instantly. We were so inseparable. I was the one who gave HIM the nickname Bambam after HE played a role of a gunman. Instead of expressing the bang! bang! sound, he shouted bam! bam! Everyone in the auditorium laughed at his cuteness. I can still clearly remember that moment.
Months passed, I didn't realize that I was starting to fall in love with HIM. I started to feel some foreign feelings whenever I'm with him. I would always daydream about HIM in classes. I felt butterflies were flying all over my stomach whenever HE'S near.
I really can't believe myself for falling for HIM. I'm not gay for fuck's sake. I began questioning myself, Why did I fall for a guy of all people?
There are lots of pretty girls in our school but why a boy? Why did it have to be my bestfriend? Or maybe, that's just how love works. It will bloom unexpectedly out of nowhere.
I didn't confess because I was still in denial. Maybe, I was just infatuated because we're inseparable, you know. Plus, we were too young. That, I kept on reminding myself.
That's when Jungkook came to the picture. He was transferred to our school from America in fifth grade. Then all I know, Bambam revealed to me that HE has HIS eyes on this particular transferee. HE'S gay?!
Our strong friendship started when our Science teacher grouped us three. Since then, we three became the best of friends. Every Fridaywe would always hang out in each of our houses. I must admit Jungkook is pretty rich, but Bambam is way more.
There are countless times when I became jealous of Jungkook because I know Bambam likes him so much. But I don't have the right to be jealous, right? Bambam and I were never a thing. It hurts to know that HE only treat me as HIS long-time bestfriend.
Of course, there are also times where I wanted to come out of my shell and confess to Bambam but I can't even dare to speak when HE starts to talk about how much HE adores Jungkook. So, I would just smile all the time though I was already breaking inside. I told myself, maybe we aren't just for each other. That, HE was made for Jungkook. That I would always be just HIS bestfriend.
I really thought Jungkook feels the same way towards Bambam, too. He was strangely sweet to HIM so I backed off. I tried to shake off my feelings for HIM because I want Bambam's happiness. And, I know it's Jungkook.
Though it hurts me, I helped Bambam confess to Jungkook but HE would always retreat because HE said HE just can't do it. That happened so many times until Jungkook told us that they will leave for Seoul to pursue his dream of becoming an idol. Upon hearing that, I encouraged Bambam to confess or else he will regret everything. I even helped HIM in setting up the dinner date for them two, the day before Jungkook left Busan. Though I wanted to break down right away seeing them talking to each other, I just left with so much hurt in my heart.
I left the country without a word because I knew they would end up together soon. I knew that if I stayed, it would be hard for me to move on so I decided to do it in another country.
My heart leaded me to Italy. I thought everything was doing perfectly. I was doing fine on my studies, until a shocking news reached me. HIS mom went all the way to Venice just to tell me that Bambam was sent to a mental institution. She begged for me to go back to South Korea. She reasoned out that maybe I could help Bambam to be normal again. I was HIS bestfriend after all, she added.
It didn't fail to break my heart. All along, I was wrong about Jungkook's love for Bambam. That Jungkook just treat Bambam as a friend. Nothing more, nothing less.
So I returned and it's dreadful to see Bambam in that horrible state. HE became violent. HE was screaming at everyone, even at me. HE was hurting himself. HE became the typical type of a crazy person. The nurses would always report to us the countless of times Bambam tried to escape. HE would always hurt a staff, trying to escape. That hurts me so much. At that very moment, I promised to myself that I will dedicate myself in helping HIM come back to HIS old self. It took so much effort and years before HE starts to improve. Finally. Well, that's what we thought.
I never heard about Jungkook anymore. When the institution approved of the discharge of Bambam, we went straight to the United States. After two years of stay, we came back. I thought HE was already mentally healed because it's been years but I was wrong. I had no idea that HE started to ruin everyone's lives behind my back. I started to feel that something's off. Then, I found out that HE formed his own gang.
Jaebum, a friend of mine, revealed to me that Bambam threatened him and the rest of our friends to destroy someone's life. That's when I found out that Jungkook had a boyfriend named Jimin. Mark was our friend, too. Bambam made him pretend courting a member of Jungkook's idol group, just to have eyes on everything.
HE also threatened Jisoo, who used to be obsessed over Jungkook, to destroy their relationship.
I can't do anything because like the others, HE threatened me also not to tell HIS parents about what HE'S been up to.
HE also made Youngjae, another friend, fake the DNA results claiming that Min Joon was Jungkook's. As expected, Jimin and Jungkook certainly broke up.
As a friend and as someone who loves HIM, I can't do anything but just stay silent. I don't want HIM to be in trouble. I know. I'm stupid. I should've stopped this before it became complicated like this. But, my love for HIM blinded me. And in result, I became an accomplice, too. I knew it was wrong but what can I do? I love HIM too much.
Bambam was successful. He forced Jisoo to act as Jungkook's wife. Yes, their marriage was fake. Bambam planned everything from the very beginning.
Flashback
"Bam, what if Jisoo ends up falling for Jungkook? Anything can happen." I held his shoulders. I really hoped he would reconsider everything but no matter how much I tried, he never listened to me.
"Trust me, she won't because she knows what would happen if she betrays me. She will only do that if she's ready to say goodbye to her family's legacy. I will get Jungkook back after all of this." Yes, we left South Korea again after HIS gang was exposed and destroyed to bits by a stronger gang with the name 'Black Rose'. HE was the leader of 'Cranium'. HE needed to get away and destroyed everything that could point to HIM before the cops finds out HIS true identity. I never knew HIS so-called gang was already in the cops' blacklist for committing multiple assaults. I only found out about it when we hid in the United States. His parents never knew any of this.
End of flashback
I can't take it anymore so I confessed my feelings to HIM, hoping that HE would accept me and forget about Jungkook and everything. I don't want HIM to do bad things anymore. I really tried to convince HIM into loving me instead because HE could be happy with me. But, HE rejected me and even mocked me and insulted me in every way. I stayed but HE just couldn't love me the way I did.
We came back after almost 5 years, but HE can't still be stopped. We didn't know that Jimin had come back, too, from England. So when Jisoo told us about the vacation in Jeju, I can't help but go with Bambam as I'm so worried about HIM. I thought HE had recovered mentally, even just a little bit, but it turns out that HE's far far away from being just okay.
I was finally alarmed when HE shot Jimin, and in result Jimin fell into a critical condition. I didn't give up on convincing HIM to forget about everything but HE was just so stubborn. When Youngjae told me that Bambam tried to kill Jimin, that's when I fully decided that everything needs to be stopped and I'm the only one who could do that. I finally told HIS parents about everything from the very beginning, how their son lied about recovering inside the mental hospital. It was just an act all along and we're all tricked.
I planned with Jackson because he's the only one who has many connections. As much as I love Bambam, I have to stop this before it's too late. HIS parents also wanted everything to stop because Bambam have caused so much already.
We have already come up with a plan but HE was smart.
I was with HIM on HIS condo. Everything was doing smoothly according to the plan but all I can remember is I'm tied up on the bed's headboard.
I woke up with a big headache and I just realized my head was hit by a hard thing. I was trying to move when I felt a sticky-note on my my lower leg. Only one of my arms was tied up so I used my other hand to get the note. My eyes grew wide at what the note says.
Do you think I won't know what you're up to?! Well, fuck you! By the time you woke up and read this, I probably got Jimin. I will end everything now and no one can stop me anymore, not even God.
Oh shit! I have to get out of here and warn the others! But how?! I quickly roamed my eyes around to find how to get loose. Wait...my smart watch!
I used my teeth to loosen the strap until it fell on my legs. I moved it near my feet and used my toe to dial Jackson hyung's number. I waited for awhile. Once he picked up, I exclaimed.
"Jackson hyung! Hurry! Bambam already knew our plan! Please help me! HE tied and locked me in HIS condo!" Though I can't hear him, I just kept on talking.
"Hurry please! HE got Jimin already! We need to stop HIM before HE do something to Jimin!" The call died and here I am, a crying mess. I should have done this from the very beginning. I really hoped we're still not late. I was crying hard when Jackson hyung finally came. I did not waste any time and grabbed his hands and ran our way to his car once I got loose. I told him to go straight to the hospital. I need to tell everyone now. Even if they loathe me forever, I don't care anymore.
When we arrived, I ran fast to Jungkook's room, leaving Jackson hyung outside. Ahead of me is another guy who was running also and entered Jungkook's room.
My heart suddenly beat fast as I started to feel nervous. I hope I'm not late yet.
I quickly slid the door open and saw everyone's shocked faces already. In awhile, their eyes fell on mine.
Yugyeom?! You're here?!" I heard him say while he's so shocked looking at me. Well, there's no more time for this.
"There's no more time to say hello's to each other. HE's back, Jungkook!" His brows furrowed. Don't tell me?!
"W-Who is back?"
"Jae Chan is back!" He still looks so confused. What the hell, Jungkook?!
"Jae Chan? Who is that?" I can't believe what I'm hearing right now.
"Did you really forget about HIM?! Aish! You stupid! No wonder why HE's so mad!!!"
So that's why Bambam is so mad! That explains everything! Aish! You are a stupid asshole, Jungkook!
"It's Bambam for Christ's sake, Jungkook!"
"B-Bambam? What's with HIM?" You know what, I really wanted to punch Jungkook right now. Can't he really pick up what I'm trying to say?!
"Fuck! HE is the one who shot Jimin, and now HE got him!"
"WHAT?!"
