After spending the night with his dad, Taehyung eventually had to leave since he wanted to sort things out with Sungjae now that he had a clear head. They've been fighting a lot and it was unhealthy, too unhealthy and he just wanted to get their feelings out on the table. Communicate with each other and just... make it work. So he called up Sungjae and waited for the male in his hotel room. Namjoon had just left with Seokjin and so he had the hotel room to himself until Sungjae came by. It didn't take long for Sungjae to swing by either which Taehyung knew would happen. Sungjae just always happened to be close by wherever Taehyung went.

Sitting on the bed looking down at the carpet, Taehyung waited for the knock on the door and eventually, he heard it. Quick to jump onto his feet, Taehyung hurried over to the door and took a peek before opening the door for Sungjae who smiled and leaned in to give Taehyung a hug and kiss. "Mm, I've missed you." Sungjae said with the most loving tone ever which made Taehyung smile as he closed the door and gave Sungjae a quick kiss. "Me too." He bit his lip. "Which is why I invited you here... I want to talk." Taehyung pulled Sungjae to the bed.

"Talk about?" The loving tone soon dropped as Sungjae suddenly was worried as he sat on the bed. "Nothing bad! It's just... we argue a lot more than usual and I don't like it. I don't like this new us. I want... to not argue really." Taehyung shrugged at his wording. "Well, that's silly because every couple argue's Tae." Sungjae laughed at that. Taehyung sighed as he nodded. "Yes but... not all the time. Look, I just want to communicate our feelings okay?" Taehyung sat down and faced Sungjae who didn't look like he was up for it as he faced Taehyung.

"Okay so... this is a big topic but it's the main topic on why we keep arguing and that's... Jungkook." Taehyung already regretted the topic but it needed to be addressed. "... Really Taehyung?" Sungjae got up from the bed and looked at the male with disbelief. "You want to talk about Jungkook now? Don't you think you've talked about and to him enough times for this trip?" Sungjae spoke up which made Taehyung sigh once more. "Sungjae. I'm trying to talk to you here. Can you just tell me what annoys you so badly?"

"Oh let's see. My boyfriend who hangs out with his ex or wait- sorry, ex bang. That shit annoys me. That you refuse to call him your ex although we both know you two had something going on." Sungjae spoke up as Taehyung then stood up to face Sungjae. "That was three years ago. Me and Jungkook aren't-... we..." Taehyung tried to explain but he simply couldn't. He would be lying if he said nothing happened between them because truth was, something did! a kiss... and although it was just a kiss, Sungjae would freak the fuck out if he knew.

"I love you Jae but you gotta let that shit go. Yeah okay, maybe he was my ex in some way but that's the point, he's my ex! You're my boyfriend, I chose you!" Taehyung stepped closer to Sungjae. "... Ever since Jungkook came back into the picture you've been different. When I tell you your ex is being a dick, you dismiss it. When I want you to tell me the truth when you're with Jungkook, you don't. So clearly I'm not the guy you choose when Jungkook shows up."

Taehyung opened his mouth to speak but nothing came out. Was Sungjae really so bothered about Jungkook? This... Sungjae wasn't even open to talking about this calmly but Taehyung was trying to keep his calm. "You want the truth Sungjae?" Taehyung looked at Sungjae who didn't do anything. "There was something between us back then. You know that because I told you that. I cried to you because of Jungkook, because my whole fucked up life. I loved him! and you knew that! You knew Sungjae! That was my past and I need you to stop bringing it up!"

"How can I when he's back once again! Back then you knew I loved you! Back then we were so close to getting together and then who came by? Jeon fucking Jungkook. Swooped you off your feet and then I wasn't an option anymore! Then finally! Finally!" Sungjae gripped at Taehyung's wrists. "I got you. Then what happens? Jeon Jungkook makes his appearance and you change around me." The grip got tighter as Sungjae kept talking. "You lied to me when he was around you. You hang out with him and you dismiss me when I tell you he's an asshole!"

Taehyung pulled his wrists away and stepped back from Sungjae who started to get louder. "No! No... you fucked up back then. Who didn't help me when I found your best friend trying to rape my best friend? Who video-recorded me scrapping with your son a bitch best friend huh? Not Jungkook, you! You fucked u-" and before Taehyung could finish his sentence, Sungjae wrapped his hand around Taehyung's neck and cornered him in by the wall. "So now it's my fault?!? It was a stupid video! You didn't give me a chance! You never fucking do!"

The sudden change in Sungjae frightened Taehyung who grabbed Sungjae's wrist since the grip got tighter until eventually, Taehyung was screwing his eyes shut from the pressure Sungjae had around his neck. "I gave you a bed to sleep on! A roof over your fucking head and you..." Sungjae let go of Taehyung who took a deep breath and slid down the wall just to get away from Sungjae who might've grabbed his neck again if he stayed up there. "I... I can't do this right now Tae. I just can't."

Taehyung couldn't even hear what Sungjae said as he left. All Taehyung did was sit there and go over what just happened. How aggressive Sungjae suddenly got. It wasn't the first time actually but it's the first time in a long while that Sungjae did so. Well- first time Sungjae got physical with Taehyung and did it scare the hell out of him? Fuck yeah it did. Taehyung wrapped his hand around his neck and suddenly felt choked up as he rubbed lightly. So this was his fault? For not what? What did he do wrong?

Not sure what to think or do, Taehyung got up and walked over to his bed where he got under the covers and simply just laid there. Not sure what to think either so he was just there, rubbing at his neck. Jungkook really bothered Sungjae huh?... so bad that he choked Taehyung over it. Sungjae... would never touch Taehyung like that and now that he did... Taehyung was in disbelief because what the fuck? He felt so helpless. The way he just let Sungjae choke him... what the fuck?! what the fuck...

Gulping, Taehyung curled up into a ball. Never in his life has he ever been scared of anyone and never has he thought he'd be scared of Sungjae but as he laid in that bed all he did was think over and over again how mad Sungjae looked. How scary and big... it made Taehyung shake lightly as he thought about it over and over. What he did know for sure though was that he was scared of Sungjae and the thought of being alone with Sungjae next time frightened him.
