"I hate you! I. Hate. You. Get that into your head. I don't want to be friends with you anymore. You're dead to me! Leave. Leave!"

Jungkook's words replayed in your head every day for months after that day he said it. It hurt. Your heart ached so much. The pain of losing your best friend. You lost him.

That had happened in summer break, just before school started again. Jungkook had gotten a new girlfriend at the time when he broke off your friendship of childhood years. It was painful to watch him with the girl you hated. The reason for your friendship ending. She was the cause but you couldn't prove it to Jungkook. He was in love with her and even that was painful to witness. It was always the two of you against the world.

Passing each other through the halls of the school was something new for you. You'd still watch him dance in the practice room after school. He loved dancing. You would still support him from afar even though he never wanted to truly speak to you again.

At a party early in fall, you were both there. You drank a little too much and made a fool of yourself by dancing weirdly. Jungkook watched you painfully embarrass yourself until he walked over to you and took your arm. He dragged you away to a nearby bathroom.

"You're embarrassing yourself, you know that? Still the same as ever. Do you ever learn?"

His voice was as cold as Antarctica. You just looked at him before quickly stepping to the toilet to puke. He held your hair back, urging you to get everything out.

"So irresponsible. As always."

He sighed.
