Jikook Social Media AU—A Love For A Love 🔐
“They say if you love someone, you should let them go for the better,”
“I…I want you to teach me things..”
“And I want a McLaren P1, but we can’t all have nice things can we?”
Jimin Park is your typical nerd, depending on how you looked at it. He wore glasses, had braces for a while, loved books and is a certified genius at math. His favorite thing to do is memorize Old English and play Mario on DS with his best friends, never really much of an outside person. Jimin didn’t fit into any clique, didn’t fit anywhere else that wasn’t with his makeup and music enthusiast friend, Yoongi Min, and fashionista/aspiring actor, Seokjin Kim. As a nerd, Jimin, of course, doesn’t have more than three friends. And of course, as a nerd, he’s in love with the third one, star Basketball player, and Drama Club member, Taehyung Kim.
Jungkook Jeon was really the boy people like Jimin steered clear of. The bad boy, some people would say, with a sexual body count higher than his GPA and the athletic prowess of a devil, if one can say it without saying goodbye to their spot on Earth. Jungkook was the fuckboy girl’s thirsted after only to complain about the next morning, was the boy who turned people out and set them straight depending on his mood. Jimin didn’t find any interest him after he had been suspended for fighting with his crush in their Junior year, earning himself a four month suspension. Everyone had forgotten about him until it was time for school again and Jimin was set on steering clear from him, continuing his fruitless pining on his best friend.
Until, one day he’s given an offer that had been initially refused by him because Jungkook was bad, and he didn’t like bad people. But, when seeing Taehyung slip farther from his grasp the more he stays with his current girlfriend, Jisoo, gets to be too much, Jimin and his friends form a plan—and that plan includes Jungkook and his sexual expertise, Jimin with his intelligence, and one fresh year to change and convince the public, more specifically Taehyung, that Jimin could do things.
And he would do them with his fake boyfriend, Jungkook, in stride, even if it meant he had to spend his time tutoring the boy.
But what happens in that year? What happens when Jimin learns that not everything is what he’s known, that everything is not what he pictured it to be? What happens when he finds himself thinking of Jungkook and not Taehyung when he finds out the truth about Jungkook?
Will he give a love for a love? Or will someone else will?
Sooo, it's happening soon and it will mark somehow the end of my smiles every time I read an update😔
Also, why do I have a feeling that even if I am prepared for the angst, I'll be shookth? Like, I am trying to put myself in the shoes of everyone and that's what I would feel knowing the truth:
Being Jimin : I would hate YOUNGI because it is plain betrayal, he knew everything about my feeling toward Tae but still engaged with him in a relationship, not that I want him to erase his own feeling but he should've been honest with me and tell me instead of trying to persuade me that Tae is an asshole, the fuck he loves him how could he describe someone he loves like that? And about Kook? I'll mostly be doubtful about him being nice to me all this time, I'll built a wall and try to erase my feeling because what if it's not the real him that I saw and he was just doing what he was paid for. Being rational, I don't have the right to blame him for anything we had a deal and he delivered, I was the one who was involved emotionally.
Being Jungkook: honestly, beside being heartbroken I can't have any other feeling because the is a huuuuuge secret not yet revealed about his relationship with Tae and why they drifted apart.the conversations with Namjoon aren't helping me decide because he always tell him to stop hurting himself and I trust Namjoon and wouldn't support a bad guy, I guess?
Being Taehyung: I will be pissed at YOUNGI beyond imagination, because it will hurt like a bitch knowing how the person I love treats me and his supposed best friend. I agreed to keep our relationship secret, I agreed to maintain a relationship with a girl that I didn't like for him, I even kept my feelings from my best friend just to be treated like shit? But I am more pissed at myself because I couldn't see all of this.
Being YOUNGI: I AM AN ASSHOLE AND I DON'T DESERVE ANY OF THE PEOPLE THAT LOVES ME.
I truly feel that i won't have THE angst I am expecting or I am getting what I am expecting and much more. But I still have a soft spot for Jungkook and feel like he will be the most hurt by all of this, because he fell in love way before Jimin did, the poor guy is already suffering.
I don't know why I decided to write this but I needed to complain or take out the frustrating that this AU is building in me. If anyone sees this, please read the AU and all @bulletproofsunflowers 's AU that came before it, it will be worth your time.
