"Come back to me Jungkook." Hoseok whispered, approaching his face closer to the prince's.
"No."
Taehyung bit his lip and clenched his fists. He wanted to punch Hoseok so hard until he understands that he can't touch what is his.
He heard him whispering something to Jungkook before he leaned to kiss his lips.
He felt like a sword just stabbed his heart.
He felt hot tears falling from his eyes.
His body was shaking. He couldn't feel his legs.
He headed to his room, angry and disappointed.
He washed his face with cold water and got on the bed, his heart still beating uncontrollably.
"GET OFF ME!" Jungkook yelled. "Are you insane?!"
"What is wrong with you?!" Hoseok shouted back. "It is not our first kiss!"
"I know! But now I-AM-MARRIED!" the prince shouted, showing him his golden ring. "Can you not understand it!"
"But you do not love him! It has been only 2 weeks since you knew each other. It is impossible!"
"What makes you believe this?" Jungkook said with a calmed voice this time.
He rubbed the back of his neck and stared right into Hoseok's eyes. "When we were together, you never did anything for me, for us. You said you loved me but you never proved it to me. You were always scared of someone catching us. It is not like you were with a criminal, you were with me! You were scared because I was poor and dirty. You were not proud of me." he sighed. "But Taehyung is different. He was a prince. Everyone watches his moves. And he still chose me despite my poverty and my ripped clothes. He chose me for what I am. He accepted me."
Hoseok frowned. "But you did it for money, you cannot deny it Jungkook. You married him for your mother."
The younger sighed and nodded. "Yes, it is true. It was my original intention, yes. But it was before I knew him. When I got to know him, he gave me a reason not to regret being his prince. Yes, he saved my mother. Yes, he saved our situation. But I am happy by his side."
The orange haired male kicked the wall behind the younger's head. "What about me then?!! Will you just throw me away like this?!"
Jungkook gulped and lowered his head to avoid Hoseok's angry stares. "I am sorry Hoseok. I am deeply sorry." he mumbled before leaving him.
"Oh god what is wrong with you my dear? Your face is pale!" Jin exclaimed, examining his face.
"P-please just give me a glass of cold water." he mumbled with a breathless voice.
"Of course!" the older ran to the fridge and filled a large cup for him. "Here!"
Jungkook sat and quickly drank the water. He left a heavy sigh after.
Jin stared at him confusingly and sat in front of him. He put his hand on his. "My dear, is there anything wrong? Did something happen with the king?"
Jungkook shook his head with a sad smile. "Everything is fine with Tae."
"Then why do you look sad?"
"I-I cannot tell you right now.. But what I can say is that it is completely my fault."
The cook stared at him sadly. "I understand if you cannot talk about your feelings but you should know that if you ever need something you can always come to me."
Jungkook smiled. "Thank you Jin."
"Anything you would like to eat?"
"Oh yes! I was actually coming tk get some food for us."
"Taehyung must be hungry after all this stress." Jin said while preparing their trays. "Here sweetheart, eat well and give that cute smile of yours."
The younger shyly smiled and left the kitchen.
When he came back to their suite, Taehyung was already sleeping, or 'pretending to sleep'.
He sighed and put the tray on the table. He wanted to wake him up but his sleeping face looked so peaceful and innocent.
He leaned and placed a gentle kiss on his head.
He changed his clothes and ate a little bit before joining his husband in bed.
He hugged him from behind, thinking about his argument with Hoseok.
He felt bad for him because he did not do anything wrong but his feelings for the king were growing stronger and he could not help it.
He loved his company and loved being a good prince to him.
"Good night Tae." he whispered before closing his eyes.
Taehyung was still awake. His heart was beating fast. Him being too close to him made him want to turn and hug him, kiss him and do things to him. But he was still mad, still confused about his relationship with the prime minister's son.
He was angry because he thought he was the only one who could kiss him.
He ignored if he should be upset at his husband or his previous lover.
Jungkook is the kindest man he has ever met. He could not think about him.
And Hoseok did not seem like a bad person according to what Jungkook told him about their old relationship.
Too many thoughts were burdening him and he was already tired after his busy day so he decided to stop thinking and sleep.
