It took just a single week, and Jungkook was all into BTS's group, adding up himself as the 7th member. They enjoyed themselves together, played together, ate together, infact hung out together to the point where, for Jungkook, it felt like he was happy truly this time, for Mrs. Jeon who loved her son being all smiley after seeing him with the boys, felt as if she'd done right, trying to make him face the world, and for BTS...

Well, here comes the real problem.

That day when BTS's enemy had talked to our big kookie, Jimin had overheard them, for he had come there to talk to Jungkook to know him, as he didn't want to judge someone so early. But then, he realized or say was made to realize that Jungkook was doing a drama to get into their circle so that during the school's championship at the end of the year, their enemy can defeat them.

So, after hearing what he was supposed to do, Jimin went and told all of this to the rest of the BTS. Taehyung's reaction was as it had to be, angry. The rest were simply disappointed. Jin, however, felt really bad, thinking of how someone can act so innocent, but then he knew that people nowadays fooled each other with no worries whatsoever.

Anyways, after getting to know the so-called 'truth', BTS decided among themselves to make friends with Jungkook, or say, be fake friends with him. Why? The reason was simple, they'd give their enemy a nice attack when required with the help of the little boy.

However, their fake friendship had taken a turn, when they literally began to enjoy Jungkook's company, and in no time, they forgot about the enemy thingy and all of it grew real, all the moments, all the fun, and so they created memories.

But...

Things don't really remain good forever, do they?

* a few days of hanging out together *

Jungkook had woken up in big space and to say he was still really excited would be an understatement. Today was his birthday, no one knew of course, but he thought he'd give all of his Hyungs a surprise by himself for his own birthday, by writing them each a letter and giving them his own handmade cookies, okay, he did take a lot of help from his mother, but yeah.

He even had planned a bigger surprise for his Tae-Tae Hyung, why? The boy had secretly grown to like the elder and wanted to let the elder know about it. He was nervous, but he was excited.

The whole morning, he packed the letters, and the small boxes of cookies, adding a heart-shaped cookie and a small extra note to his Tae Hyung's surprise.

You'd say the others were supposed to give him a surprise. They were meeting this afternoon, at school, for the rest of the BTS were supposed to be practicing for their championship, the music one which was supposed to take place next week. And so, Jungkook didn't really think of disturbing them, and neither did he want them to spend anything over him. He liked them, for their own selves and not for the money or gifts.

Jungkook wore a white simple graphic shirt, over which he wore a pastel pink oversized shirt leaving it open. Wearing a black choker that his mother gave him, and completing his look with round glasses, dark blue jeans, and high tops. He looked cute and beautiful.

He kept all the presents in his bag, today he was turning 17, finally!

Running over to his mother, who was preparing breakfast for him, he hugged her and told her he'd go alone, for he needs to do some stuff. She gave him banana milk which he drank quickly and ran out.

MRS. JEON- TAKE CARE KOOKIEE!!! Aish this kid, so in hurry.

She began to have her breakfast until she heard her phone ring and so she stood up and went to check on it.

Jungkook made his way to school and saw that most of the students were yet to come. So he simply skipped towards the room where BTS practiced and opened the door, only to be met by a disastrous sight.

Jungkook gasped to himself.

All the equipment was thrashed here and there, the music notes were torn apart, forget it all, the piece of art that Tae had created especially for the backdrop at the ceremony, was scratched and smeared with ink. The room looked as if a thunderstorm had passed by.

Worried, Jungkook moved closer to the art piece, a pout on his lips, and brushed his hand over it trying to get a clearer picture so that he can draw it again before his Tae-Tae Hyung comes inside...

Jin drove the rest of the boys to school, himself included, and they parked the car in the parking lot, before getting out of the car, and beginning to move towards the practice room.

However, as they were talking and walking, they heard a laugh.

Usually, they'd have ignored it, but not this time, for it was clearly significant whose laugh was it.

'Their enemies.'

Taehyung was the one who moved around the corner and stood there, watching through the glass pane, seeing their enemy's group, against whom they were gonna participate in this music fest.

Namjoon sighed and was about to pull Taehyung back when they heard something which stopped all of them in their tracks.

'Haha! Ofc, foolish of them to believe 'our Jungkook'!'

'What do you mean, Jack?'

'Alas! Jungkook is my friend, and it's me who told him to get close to BTS so that I can know their plans for the music fest.'

Taehyung couldn't help but barge inside the room, making the occupants stand up and face the six boys all of whom were glaring at them.

JACK- Oh look! BTS is here, wait, where's your 7th mate, huh? Left you, did he? - he smirked.

TAE- You have nothing to do with him!

JACK- Alas! It's me who has everything to do with him!

JIN- What do you mean?

JACK- Don't tell me you don't know yet? Well-

Just as Jack was about to speak, another boy came in, who was smiling playfully, but after looking at BTS, his grin widened.

JACK- Hey Max!

MAX- I just came to inform you something, but looks like we have an audience here!

JACK- Ignore them, tell me what it is?

MAX- About 'our Jungkook'~

None of BTS spoke, but they waited.

JACK- Oh oh oh, what is it?

MAX- Well, he's doing what you told him to do~

Jack began to laugh, and his group joined in. Getting irritated, Suga was about to punch Jack when,

MAX- Hold up! Before you do something, you should know the truth!

JACK- Hell yeah. So, let me come to the point I'm tired of this game.

JIMIN- Come to the point!

JACK- Aye aye, well, Jungkook is my friend, has been for ages, and he joined this school due to me. After all, we love each other, don't we?

Max nodded, smiling.

Taehyung's face color vanished as he heard that. Jimin kept a hand on his shoulder and tried to make him relax, but the expression was noticed by Jack.

JACK- Sad, I know you liked him. And he knows it too!

TAEHYUNG- It's not true!- he spoke with gritted teeth.

JACK- Well, it is. And you should know one thing more, today, just a week before the competition, Jungkook has gone to destroy everything, including everything you prepared. Don't believe me, go and check for yourself.

HOSEOK- You're lying!

MAX- He's not! Otherwise, also, you should know the truth. It was all our plan, to make you lose the championship, which you sure will.

Not being able to control it, Taehyung punched Jack in the face,

TAE- If any of it is a lie, I'll kill you personally!

With that, he ran out, and the rest followed after giving death glares.

As soon as they rushed out, Jack and his group began to laugh,

MAX- Plan successful!

JACK- Are you sure, Jungkook is doing what he should be?

MAX- I saw him, he was trying to make the art piece back to its original position, but he doesn't know how he'll get caught and they'll think that he was the one who destroyed it.

JACK- You did all the work then?

MAX- Yeah. Destroyed everything and even kept Jungkook's ring that you stole last week near the destroyed stuff, kinda dropped it to make it look like he did it.

JACK- Amazing. Now just wait and watch, BTS will be heartbroken, especially Taehyung! He was the one who tried to stand against me, now see, how I destroyed his love life, as well as shattered his whole group!

Jungkook literally tried to make the art piece back to its original look but to no avail. He thought to pick up the instruments and stuff that wasn't really destroyed so that he can help his friends in some way or the other. But alas! His luck! He tripped over and the only guitar that was all in a good condition also fell down. He looked at it, and stood up, brushing his clothes, not realizing that even his clothes were now smeared with ink that was originally on his hands.

He groaned and then began to think.

'If I go and get someone for help and get the art materials, then I can at least clean this stuff and make a new art piece. Hmm...yes!'

Just as he was about to go out, he stopped. Seeing BTS standing in the doorway, and looking straight at him, their face holding no expressions, Jungkook grew a bit nervous.

JUNGKOOK- h-hi hyungies! Look, I came here and all of this was destroyed, but we can do something about it, right? I'll help you all!

He smiled his bunny smile, but it turned into a gasp as he felt himself getting pushed hard so that he stumbled over the broken guitar and fell hard on the floor.

He looked up and saw that all the BTS, except Taehyung was glaring at him. And it was none other than Jimin who had pushed him.

Jungkook couldn't get himself to speak, he was shocked, his little self was trying to come out for he was getting scared and yet he didn't know why Jimin pushed him, why his chimmy pushed him!

JIMIN- Tell me, why you did do it? Huh?

JUNGKOOK- W-what?

JIMIN- Oh come on! Haha! STOP ACTING AND TELL US WHY YOU FAKED IT ALL!!!!

Jungkook flinched and stood up, hissing when he felt a glass piece had torn his lower thigh skin, but it didn't matter, at least not right now. He moved to hold Chimmy, who just moved back. Looking at him with teary eyes, Jungkook looked back at Taehyung who was still standing in the doorway. He stumbled over to his Tae-Tae thinking that he'll help him.

JUNGKOOK- Tae-tae, tell me what happened, please!

Taehyung however looked up at him and glared, with angry eyes, making Jungkook nervous and scared at the same time.

JUNGKOOK- Ta--

He was cut off when he felt his cheek sting and the glasses he was wearing, fell to the ground. Yes, Jin had slapped him. Jungkook was too shocked to speak, and right now, even his little self grew scared, not wanting to slip anymore.

No one spoke for a few minutes, but tears flowed out of Jungkook's eyes.

JIN- We trusted you, Jungkook! We thought you were our real friend! We treated you like a family and yet you betrayed us!

JUNGKOOK- I d-didn't!

TAEHYUNG- Oh! Then what is all this? Huh? All of the pieces of equipment are destroyed! Our music sheets are torn! And even my art piece! You knew how much it mattered to me, right?! You knew how much you mattered to me! Huh! Speak, dammit!

Taehyung shook Jungkook by the latter's collars, but the doe-eyed boy simply looked at him.

JUNGKOOK- I didn't do it...

Taehyung chuckled, a sarcastic chuckle, and then,

JIMIN- look! even our friendship ring is not there with you, is it? Huh?

Jungkook looked at his finger and a look of horror dawned on his face, he didn't feel he didn't have the ring that they had given to each other as a symbol of their friendship.

JUNGKOOK- I swear I had it, maybe I dropped it somewhere!

SUGA- Here it is, yeah you dropped it in a nice place too, Jungkook. A dustbin?- his voice laced with disappointment.

Taehyung peered over the bin and there it was the silver ring.

JUNGKOOK- I-i swear, I didn't! It must have been left here and someone might have thrown it!

No one heard him though.

Jin was no longer facing him, Jimin was glaring at him. Suga had his hands on his head while sitting on a chair. Namjoon was rubbing Jin's back, and Hoseok ignored Jungkook.

Jungkook was broken. Why none of them believed him! Why! What did he even do? He didn't know he had lost the ring, he didn't throw it, not at all. He could swear on his life, that he didn't destroy anything, but they didn't believe him...

JUNGKOOK- t-tae tae...

Jungkook whispered the last time, and seeing Taehyung look up at him, he thought maybe, maybe someone would say this was a prank, maybe they were all tryna surprise him on his birthday, maybe...maybe...

TAEHYUNG- Go away, Jungkook.

Jungkook forwarded his hands as if to hold his Taehyung Hyung, but the latter just pushed him, so hard that this time, Jungkook fell back, and felt his palm get cut by the glass piece. His tears flowed finally, the pain was too much, but nothing in front of the now broken heart and friendship.

TAEHYUNG- Go away, and never show your face to any of us. It's our fault we believed that you were innocent, it's our fault that we talked to you in the first place. You are nothing but a liar!

JIMIN- I regret talking to you! We all regret befriending you! JUST GOO!

Jungkook closed his eyes, and then stood up, wincing.

He looked back at all of them, this time, no one was looking at him...no one, all of them had their backs turned upon him.

He smiled sadly, and then went out, leaving his bag, leaving all the presents for they didn't matter now.

He could feel his heart slowly tearing apart.

Walking through the hallway towards the principal's office, Jungkook was sobbing pretty badly. His hand was bleeding, his clothes were dirty, and right now covered in traces of his own blood. He could feel his thigh sting as the glass piece was still stuck there. However, his heart ached. He wanted nothing, but to go back home and weep in his mother's arms.

Knocking on the principal's door, the latter told him to 'come in' and as he did, he heard a gasp and the pen fell from the principal's hand as she saw the condition of the boy. She helped him sit, and fetched the nurse at once asking the weeping boy what happened and who did it, but to no help, for he simply refused to speak.

JUNGKOOK- M-mommy! I wan-wanna go home!

The principal agreed, and as the nurse bandaged the boy, and gave him spare clothes to wear, the principal tried to call his mother but the latter didn't pick up and so she decided to drop the boy off by herself.

It took 10 minutes, and Jungkook was standing at his home's doorstep, the principal in her car watched him go inside and then left, praying for him to be alright and making a mental note to check what happened.

Jungkook entered his home and closed the door, and turned towards the living room to go to his mother, but the sight that he saw, almost made him lose his balance.

...

His mother...held at gunpoint...and held by two masked men. A fat man meanwhile was sitting on the couch smirking.

???- Jungkook, mah boy! Hey, you! Inject him!

And before the bunny boy could react, he felt a sting on his neck and heard his mom shout, 'NOO' before his surrounding turned dark and he fell down unconscious on the floor.
