    iv:

    sometimes yoongi thinks it was that will to go places that led him into the forest.

    he's just not so sure it came back out with him, or if he lost it later.

    viii:
    if this is some twisted ghost-the-movie-inspired romance he’ll take it, because it’s all he has left in the whole damn world.

    in retrospect, this moment is it: the end. sitting with taehyung on the couch as the sun sets, him turning through as fast as he can to try and finish the book but yoongi already knows how it ends, knows that taehyung won’t finish in time, knows that the storm is here and there’s no more waiting, no more time, no more nothing.

    god, yoongi wishes they still had time.

    ix:

    yoongi grins back at him, as bright as he can, because the shittiest thing in the world is not having a clear memory of someone you lose.

    “jungkook-ah,” namjoon said again, softly, like jungkook’s name was something precious, like a spell or an incantation or a charm. namjoon’s eyes were so soft, and warm, and his cheek dimpled slightly as one side of his mouth quirked up. He leaned his forehead close, nearly against jungkook’s, and jungkook felt the timbre of namjoon’s voice, the ghost of his breath against his lips as he said, “jungkook-ah, i’ve been in love with you for years.”

    Summary

    Jungkook slams his face into the desk and groans. Namjoon is so lovely and Jungkook is horrid. Jungkook is a shitty person who is making Namjoon feel like shit for things he has no control over. It's not Namjoon's fault that Jungkook is like this, and feels this way.

    (It's not Namjoon's fault that Jungkook is in love with him)

    Jungkook shakes his head. Nope, nope. He can't call it that, he can't think about it like that. Jungkook forces himself to reopen the word document and read over his lyrics again. This time even braves the title.

    For him-- My first and last.

    Jungkook might cry. The song doesn't sound right because it's pretty and Jungkook feels ugly. He feels ugly for feeling like this and for feeling it about Namjoon. Sweet, lovely, oblivious Namjoon who Jungkook owes so much too but can only seem to give him love in a way Namjoon doesn't want in return.

    or

    in which jungkook writes a mixtape for namjoon about his unrequited love, which maybe isn't as unrequited as he first thinks.

    Bookmarker's Notes

    jungkook had sworn to himself if he were to ever release a mixtape, he was going to make it personal. he felt like it owed it to himself; he's spent so much time looking forward and thinking of the jungkook he wants to be that he doesn't think he's particularly well acquainted with the jungkook he is.

    `.`

    i tried to alter them to be less obvious, but every time i try to soften it it feels like i'm trying to blur something that can't be blurred.

    `.`

    “i haven’t listened to the song.” namjoon finally whispers and jungkook snaps his head back up. “it doesn’t look like something that was meant for me to hear.”

    there's some irony in that, jungkook thinks. the song, as much as jungkook planned to twist it, to dull it down, to filter it until the ambiguous weighed out the open honesty, it was always meant for namjoon. the producer-nim’s could mix it up as much they like, change pronouns, whatever, the song would always have been for him. it's like when artists restore paintings, they can change the features and paint over with oil as much as they like, but the original art is still underneath.

    `.`

    jungkook loves namjoon, and jungkook doesn’t want to feel bad about that.

    namjoon closes his eyes. and jungkook says into his neck, breath hot and damp, “i missed you, hyung,” and there’s that. there’s that. 

    `.`

    he starts to smile softly again now, and namjoon knows, very faintly, that they both want to let it happen.

    jungkook dropped namjoon’s phone onto the sheets and grabbed namjoon by the hair, tugging him right up to his face. “c'mon, joon. you keep making me wait.”

    `.`

    if anything in his life had ever been worth a shot, it was this.
