Happy Reading --
That morning-noon was the beginning of their relationship. The beginning of (Y/N) stepped to moved on and the beginning of Hoseok requited love, or so that they hoped to be.
Times seemed to had flowed faster than usual as they've started dating for a month by now. Hoseok never felt such a strong chemistry with a girl, she didn't have to do much just to get him head over heels. He finally found his missing peace, he found the owner of the key to his heart.
(Y/N) felt blessed for how much he showered her with lots of love. It had filled the hole in her heart since Hobi incident. Without realizing, Hoseok had become important to her but there is something that always bothered her. Had her heart prepared to replace Hobi?

"You know Dayeon-ah, last night he suddenly popped up in front of my door and bring me a lot of stuff." The girl casually babbled her story to her best friend. "I mean, he literally just got there 5 minutes after i told him i had cramps."
"Chocolates, medicine, ice cream even he bought sanitary pad! Can you believe that? Even Hobi wouldn't do like what he did."
"And he acted all tough when we were in trouble but i can't believe he scared of bugs. I wish he was brave like Hobi though, it would be perfect."
"Stop it." Dayeon spurted.
(Y/N) looked at her, Dayeon still had her eyes on her textbook, her left hand propped her forehead while the other one was laid on the desk.
"What did you say?" The brunette asked.
"Stop talking about him." She replied with a firm tone.
"Is it wrong to tell you about Hobi?" Her face frowned cluelessly. She was confused by the sudden temper from her friend.
"And which Hobi again are you telling me?" She scoffed, without leaving her eyes on the books. "All you said was you wish Hobi was like this, you wish Hobi was like that."
"Dayeon, what are you trying to say?" (Y/N) didn't got what her friend were saying.
Dayeon finally moved her eyes to (Y/N), glaring at her. "Stop comparing Hoseok to Hobi. That's what I'm trying to say." She demanded, the girl throw dagger with her gaze. "He is what he is, you love him because he's the man that give his world for you, the man that had saved you from your loneliness, right?"
Hoseok's girlfriend was scrunching her face, her brain tried to processed what her best friend was implying.
The blonde girl let out a desperate exhale, she steamed off her anger and rubbed (Y/N)'s back. "Hoseok is not Lee Hobi (Y/N)-ah, stop comparing them."
"You know, when you look at Hoseok, it reminded me from the way you look at Hobi. That time, i thought it was because you do love him like when you love Hobi. But you don't right? You just love his resemblance with Hobi."
"You just want to be loved with someone that looked like Hobi." The long haired girl let out her mind, it was hard for her seeing her friend unable to move on from her deceased lover.
She looked away. She hate to admited that Dayeon was right. "You don't understand Dayeon, i do love him.. i do love Hobi, i just-." (Y/N) was cutted off by her own words, she just realized that she just referred Hoseok to Lee Hobi. The girl clenched her fist on her chest. "I.. it's just it takes time okay?" She mumbled.

Being her chidhood friend, Dayeon felt responsible for (Y/N). Ever since they were little, (Y/N) was the nice and kind girl, sometimes she's too kind to everyone. She often used by her friend and other boys. Dayeon was the one who always stepped up to protect her.
And this case was another one of the reason she had to clear things up with Hoseok. She knew (Y/N) well to know that her friend wouldn't say the truth. She want to keep Hoseok and replace Hobi with him. So instead, she had to take the lead and tell everything to Hoseok.

As usual, Hoseok was leaning on his car, waiting for his girlfriend, his probably soon to be ex-girlfriend. He had just finished his dance practice, his chocolate hair combed back, sharpening the shape of his feature. A pair of earphone comfortably perched on his slick ear. The boy was humming softly while his head followed the music.
Dayeon took a deep breath before she take a step forward to him. She had prepared the best word for him for several days now. The girl finally made her way and now standing in front of him. Recognized someone presence, he lifted his head up.
"Hoseok-ssi.." she speaked. Her breath was held out unconsciously, her hands balled into a firmly fist. "There's something i need to tell you."
Hoseok eyebrows met, trying to remember her name. "ahh you're Dayum right? (Y/N)'s friend?" He replied with an innocent smile.
"Huh? No, i'm Dayeon, Lee Dayeon." The grip gotten stronger. As much as Dayeon wanted to punch this man in the face for telling her name wrong. She restrained herself, (Y/N) comes first. "Anyway, i need to tell you something about (Y/N). Don't bother to wait for her anymore."
Hoseok was getting confused. He unplugged his earphone and started to listen what her girlfriend's best friend had to say.
The girl took a deep breath, Hoseok for some reason was nervous about this, he didn't want something bad happen, he hadn't prepared for the worst. "What I'm trying to say is.. (Y/N) never loved you. You were just Hobi replacement, Lee Hobi's subtitute." She shut her eyes tight. Murmured the sentence in a breath.
Hoseok didn't quite exactly catch up what Dayeon said but he heard the big picture she was implying. "I'm sorry, did i heard wrong? (Y/N) using me?" He squinted his eyes, searching for any hint of dishonesty in Dayeon's eyes.
But he failed, her gaze was sharp. There's no doubt what she said wasn't a lie. Hoseok heart told him that he can't trust the girl. He had to hear it from (Y/N)'s mouth. "I don't believe you. There's no way she would do that to me. She love me. She love me because-"
"Because you look exactly like Hobi. I'm trying to help you before you get hurt more." She cutted his words. Dayeon's eyes somehow looked guilty, she shouldn't have left (Y/N) that night when she was drunk. She shouldn't have let her met Hoseok.
Hoseok hands clenched into his earphone, his face burned in anger but inside, his heart had cracked. His mouth was opened to say something but the word won't come out.
"If you don't believe me, let me ask you one thing. Did she ever called you by your real name?"
Dayeon question blowed his mind, he had been slapped back from reality. '(Y/N) never called me... she never called Hoseok... she never love me...' his mind repeated the same word over and over. He thought that this time it would be different. He thought everything will work out just fine with (Y/N). He felt so stupid for thinking that he had escaped from his heartbreak cycle.
XXXXX
Now matter how much Dayeon convinced him, Hoseok was denying all the fact that (Y/N) doesn't had any feeling for Hoseok. He believed that somewhere, somewhere deep down in her heart there is a little bit hope for him, he wished there were.
The boy decided to ignore their conversation and pretended that it never happened. He wanted to prove her, that he's not a substitute for Hobi. He wanted to proved himself that (Y/N) was not playing with his heart, she loved her for who he is, right?
He walked passed Dayeon and went in to the building. He searched for (Y/N). A minute after, he found the girl was mindlessly looking at her phone. He noticed something was wrong, from the never-ending locking and unlocking screen.
Hoseok was about to swayed her shoulder and throw lots of question to her face. But the troubled look she had melted his doubt, steaming all the anger he almost spilled. He suddenly wrapped her shoulder with his arms from behind. The girl flinched and whipped her head to looked at Hoseok. He drowned his face on (Y/N)'s nape, breathing on the coconut and blueberry fusion scent she always had.
"Hobi-ah? What's wrong?" She asked.
From that moment he started to hate his own nickname. He hated the fact that his mind was arguing weither (Y/N) really called him or Lee Hobi.
The question just lodged on the back of his throat. He brushed it off and shook his head. "Nothing, i just... i miss you so much."
The girl turned around so they were facing each other. Hoseok eyes met her and he felt it. He felt the love connection they had. He leaned down and kiss the square of her lips. Gently, he nibbled her upper lips, tasting the sweet strawberry lipbalm she always wear.
"Let's go." He speaked, breaking the kiss.
XXXXX
The two were pressing each other body, heat radiating from their inside, then crawled up all the way into tiny electrifying sensation. The girl moaning her boyfriend's name like a mad prayer. Their erotic voice echoed through the silence room, accompanied by the creaking bed.
The lover panting in uneven breath as their energy had left their body. (Y/N) stumbled on Hoseok hard chest. The girl loved being in his embrace, she loved how his strong arm securely drapped on her back and made her feel save.
The hazel eyes was looking through her, his eyes staring with lots of questions on his head. The boy was to scared to know the answer, he also doubted that their relationship really started because they love each other.

It was late at night yet Hoseok couldn't sleep at all. Dayeon words still running on his mind, giving the uneasy feeling clamped on his chest. (Y/N) was sleeping peacefully on his arm. The girl cuddled him under the warm blanket. With her, he felt like he had the world, he was deeply in love with her.
But his heart was quivering, he began to wondering what if Dayeon said was true? A sharp pain sended to his chest. He knew that sooner or later the truth will come, it will take him to despair.
The times keep flowing as Hoseok was daydreaming. What if he was Hobi. He would be the luckiest guy ever, having the most wonderful girl that loved him so much. Without realizing, he began to shedding tears. The boy let out a soft sob, his arms tighten the hug on the girl's. He tried to leave as many marks as possible since tonight might be their last night, together.
"(Y/N)-ah.. you were never belong to me in the first place.. but i love you so so much." He whispered to the sleeping beauty, kissing her forehead gently as he let this night be the last time he cried. He promised to himself it will be.

Morning came, the girl woke up to an empty bed. The soft fabric still had Hoseok's warm. She weakly walked out to the door and found a suprisingly breakfast for two. The boy's back was facing him as he seemed to be making coffee.
She hugged him from behind. The girl let out a huffed as her face met Hoseok's broad back. "Morning." Her voice was hoarse and dry from last night.
"Morning sunshine.." he replied. "Go to your seat i'm done making us a breakfast."he continued.
As soon as their finished their breakfast Hoseok asked the big question to her. "Hey (Y/N), can you call me by my name?"
The girl face began to tense. She knew this day will come yet she never was ready for it. The girl bitter smile cleared up what Hoseok thought. "Dayeon already told you, huh." She lifted up her face to looked at Hoseok. Her heart was aching by how heartbroken Hoseok is. "I'm sorry..."
"I don't know how it happened, i just can't helped it. You looked so much like him and ... i admit, i still love Hobi."
And then He left.
XXXXX
A couple weeks had passed since their break up. Hoseok barely comes to his class. His friends are worried about him. But the more they asked, the more he shutted himself.
On the other hand, (Y/N) was no better. Her life before Hoseok was gloomy, dark, and filled with tears. But now it even worse. She can't even sleep at night. Knowing that the bed was too huge for one person. Knowing that when she wake up, she will be all alone. She started to regretted what she had done to him. She could never forget about Hobi. But it doesn't mean that Hoseok was never stepped his foot on her heart.
The girl was shedding her tears that flowed like a river, she was bending down with a bucket of flowers in her hands. A forget-me-not flower.
Here lies Lee Hobi,1994-2016
The tombstone had been carved with his name for 2 years by now and it will still be there forever, just like it did with her heart. It will always be filled with Hobi, it has to be. She believed that no other man could replace him. She believed that until she met someone. A man who lended his hand to helped her get away from her sorrow. A man who always protected her on his warm embrace.
"I'm sorry Hobi.. i'm sorry... i fucked up, didn't i?" She sobbed, placing the bucket on the grave.
"I've already lost you, and i was all alone. But Hoseok... he gave me all the love he can share, he lightened my black shady world. He's my hope."
"I'm sorry i didn't keep our promise, i'm sorry you're not the only one anymore. You'll forgive me right? You'll forgive me like you always did." She said. Hoseok image were suddenly popped up on her mind. Her thought filled with him. His puffy chocolate hair, his pointy nose, his heart shaped smile. His hysterical laugh. She missed him, she missed Hoseok.
She laugh into a snicker. "I do love him for all this time, didn't i?" She asked herself pitifully. The girl began to sniffed, feeling the warm of her tear.
Crying over spilled milk will do her no good now. She was to late to know that Hoseok had took part in her life. If only she wasn't be so stupid to let that kind of guy just slipped from her grasp, she should've keep Hoseok forever, she should've accepted Hoseok for who he is. But what had done cannot be undone.
"What am I supposed to do now Hobi?" She cried. Her hands covered her face. She felt so desprate. She wanted everything to be the way it was again, she wanted Hoseok to come back. And tell her that he will always be here.
A strong wind passed the place, caressing (Y/N) pale cheeks. The air suddenly felt warm around her.
'Fight for him. Tell him that you want him back.' A soft whisper tickled her ears, making her shiver.

The room was crowded with lot of people. Dancing with a blasting sound from the Dj. The blue and red laser scattered on the floor, blending with the giant disco ball.
A man was enjoying another shot of alcohol. His head leaned down on the palm of his hand. His eyes were dead, his face were pale and his smile had faded. He's become so lifeless over a girl. He didn't believe that he's back with his weekend routine. Drinking alcohol and escape from reality, temporarily.
The difference now was Jungkook were no longer near, he pushed himself away from all the people, he was scared to feel loved again. He scared that they will left him too. The boy took another shot. His head snapped back, feeling the burning alcohol roamed to his throat and gave him a stung on his brain. Who care with painfully annoying hangover, it's better than the pain in your heart causr it'll never recover.
"Ahjussi! Give me one more!" He yelled to the bartender. He had been ordering drinks for many many times. The boy keeps hiccuping for every five minutes. clearly, he was drunk.
The bartender blew out a sharp breath. "Look sir, we can't let you drink anymore. You should go home now." He refused.
"Shut up! I'm paying so let me get my fucking drink NOW." He demanded.
'Where's the security when you needed them' was probably what the bartender was thinking. "Sir, that was your last bottle. We've got no more. Now will you please leave this place?" He said.
"Shit!" He cursed. Again, his night ended up ruined. He tried to stood up and walked toward the exit. But as soon as he saw a glass of the dull golden liquid standing still on a waitress's tray, his foot has it own mind and followed it. 'There you are' it said
The waitress placed it on the table, bowing politely to a girl. The girl replied it with a smile and gave her a small tip. She reached out for the glass, but then a strong hand had snatched it and took the drink in a big gulp. The girl throw her head up and eyed the man.
"Hh.. Ho.. Hoseok?" Her soft voice was stuttering. She swear if he's still mine she would let herself jumped on him and hold the man tight, vaporing all her tears back to his embrace.
Yes, the customer was none other than (Y/N). The girl who just had a tragic accident and lost his boyfriend, the girl who was completely drunk and let herself had a one night stand with the guy who looked exactly like her boyfriend. The girl who decided to date with the guy. The girl who just realized that she was indeed in love with the guy all the time.
She looked at him with disbelief, where was the old Hoseok? Her eyes traced the man from head to toe. He was completely a mess. His face were tired, his body became skinny. But there's one thing that stayed the same. It was the same gaze on his eyes everytime he looked at her. The same loving pair of eye.
"What do you want?" He asked in arrogance. "If you just gonna stand there and looking like an idiot then i'm taking my leave."
'No! Don't leave! Don't ever leave.'
"You drink my beer, Hoseok." Hoseok face turned red as he realized he's not supposed to be rude. 'Shit' he muttered.
"Fine, i'm sorry i'll pay it." He dived into his pocket and let out a brown leather wallet. The girl grasped his hand and made an eye contact.
"It's okay Hoseok, you don't need to be sorry. I'm the one who should be blame." She said.
Hoseok heart squeezed in a warm feeling as he looked into her eyes. He didn't want to believe it but he swear her eyes were filled with gentleness, it filled with love.
Then again he remembered what's the meaning behind those gaze. It's not for him.
"Whatever, here's for the beer." He slammed the money on the table and stepped toward the exit.
The girl hands restrained him. "Please.. please forgive me. What i did was wrong, but you have to know that i do realize that you're not Hobi."
"Yeah, right. Now let me go." He mocked. (Y/N) strengthened the grip on his arm. This is the only chance to make up. At least to show him what she really feel.
"Listen to me!" She yelled. "How could someone like you could even compare to Hobi."
Hoseok clenched his jaws. "I mean look at you, you were so scared of little animals, you're not manly, and you're have that irritating voice of your." The boy was scoffing in disbelief. "Yeah i'm not perfect like your prince Hobi so get lo-."
"I said listen to me. I'm not finish." She cutted. "You're so annoying as fuck and i sometimes hate that part of you. But ... yet you were able to make me the happiest girl i'll ever be, you showed me the best of you, you always tried to keep me satisfied, you never let my smile down and..."
The girl took a step closer to him, sliding her arms on his back. Her cheeks presses into his broad chest. His heart paced in a steady beats, lulled her into her happiest emotion. God only know how much (Y/N) missed this feeling. "You make me fall for you, Hoseok. I love you so damn much."
A tears managed to escaped from their eyes. Hoseok shirt started to get wet, he draped his arms on her small body. Their body collided in a yearning emotion. The boy's head fell on her shoulder, once he tasted he can't resist anymore. "God i miss you, (Y/N). You have to know how a fucking mess i am without you."
"I know, i'm nothing without you Hoseok.. I miss you too."
And then they kissed
And ... The End.
A/N:
Just kidding i promise to make a round 2. Get ready for it! Act 8 will start with Yoongi and y/n as the main character and i've consulted with my sister, who is an expert at cheesy drama love stories. And i got her blessing for Yoongi's story. Hope you'll like it too :)
By the way i know i was really slow for updating. It tooks me 4-5 days to complete one part since i'm still learning and always got stuck in the middle. So i often brainstorming by reading another story or manga, watching drama and movies. I hope i'll be a better author and finished it faster.
After all the faster the better right? JK.
