I Don’t Know(ft. G Dragon and MINO) (2)
Part 2
Minho learns a bit about you and Jiyong, but you learn something even more surprising.
This series will be updated once a week, every Friday! No specific time though lol. It’s an AUish thing where Jiyong has a younger sister and you’re her best friend! Featuring my OC Mirae as the Best friend. Just saying, it’s not related to any of the scenarios I’ve written so far. Please do leave me some comments or asks! I love receiving them! It’s also a bit of a love triangle situation, so yeah :)) There will be eventual smut in this series.

——————————————-
Jiyong had no idea why, but the sight of you always annoyed him. The way you smiled without a care in the world. He never did like you. He never tried to think about why either, because he knew the moment he tried to analyse it, it would all fall to bits. And no matter how curt or rude he was to you, you were always nice to him. He used to try and ignore you, because you were just his little sister’s friend. Why should he care? Why should he pay attention to you? But it was impossible. If you were around, he couldn’t stop thinking about you. He couldn’t stop watching you from the corner of his eye. And he fucking hated it. Which is why he went out of his way to try and talk to you as little as possible. He didn’t want to have to talk to someone he hated. Which is why things sucked when he had to pick both you and Mirae up weekly after drinks. He owed Mirae a favour and that is how she cashed it in. Both of you were going through a rough time and you guys needed that little destressing weekly. And Mirae usually passed out from drinking (she was both a lightweight and a sleepy drunk), which is why he had started talking to you. And once he started talking to you, he had even fewer reasons to hate you the way he did, because he liked talking to you. He really did. Which is why that night, when you called him, drunk, at 2 am, asking him to come to a diner, his first instinct was to worry. And he didn’t like that. He drove there as soon as he could, and found you waving happily at him from a booth. He felt so relieved, but so angry at the same time. Why was he so fucking relived that you were okay? He slid down in the seat across from you, just about to ask you what the fuck was wrong with you when you said,
“Jiyong, I like you.”
His heart jumped out of his chest when he heard that. He had no idea what to say. He hated you. How could you possibly like him? More importantly, how could he possibly like you? He didn’t. But if he didn’t, why was his heart pounding the way it was? No. He definitely did not like you. His heart had to be pounding because of the surprise, or the distaste. He looked at you again. He was about to say that he hated you, but looking at your expression, he couldn’t and switched to telling you that you were confused last minute. His heart started pounding even more when he heard that you had liked him for years. It must have been the disgust. He said whatever he had to quickly and left, not wanting to see your crestfallen expression anymore. He left as quickly as he could, just wanting to be away from there, not realising that he had left you, a drunk girl, alone at a diner at 2 in the morning. It only struck him later. Which is why he sent you that text. He was sure you’d respond. He had been mean to you so many times and you had never minded. He knew it wasn’t okay, but he was sure you were going to be the same. In fact, he was sure that you would continue to like him. He was certain that nothing would change, no matter what he said, because it had never changed before and you were always the same around him. He didn’t realise how hurt you were this time round though. He didn’t realise how serious you were about liking him. He didn’t realise how hurtful he was being.
After sending that text, he stared at his phone for two hours straight, hoping, praying to god that you would reply. If something happened to you after he left you there alone, he would never forgive himself. Which is why, when he didn’t get a response after two hours, the worry got to him, and at 4:37 am, he jumped out of bed and drove back to the diner, to see whether you were there. You weren’t. He walked over to the table where you were sitting, just to double check. You weren’t there, but a crumpled-up piece of paper was. He opened it up. It was soggy, presumably from your tears. He didn’t know why that made his gut twist a little. The writing was a little blurred, but he could read what you’d written. It was practice for what to say to him when he showed up. He crumpled it again. And as he took out his phone to call you and see if you were okay, although he had no idea why, he found himself folding that piece of paper and putting it in his wallet. He told himself then that it was only so that he doesn’t litter and he would throw it in the trash once he got home, but three years later, the paper was smudged with greasy fingerprints, from all the times he would take it out and stare at it while he was drunk, and was still very much in his wallet.

You stared at Jiyong as you moved closer to Minho, grateful for his presence. It was like Jiyong never even heard the question, because he couldn’t stop staring at you in shock. Mino’s grip on your waist tightened. He could see that you weren’t happy. Tone a little harsher, he tried again.
“Hyung. How do you know Y/N?”
Jiyong’s head was spinning. What had happened? What happened to you? Why had you changed so much? How were you here? Why did Mino have his arm around you? Why was the girl who would always turn and grab his sleeve during horror movies holding on to someone else?
One look at him and you could tell he wasn’t doing okay. You knew he wasn’t going to be able to answer Minho’s questions. Seeing Minho’s jaw clenched, you tried to defuse the situation. Putting on a smile you knew was fake, and you knew Minho could tell was fake, you said,
“Minho, you know Mirae, right? He’s Mirae’s brother. We’ve known each other for ages, but we hadn’t seen each other in a while, so he must have been surprised to see me here.”
Jiyong’s head was still reeling. He wondered whether Mino knew that your smile was fake. Or that you hated horror movies. Or that you had a fear of swimming pools from almost drowning when you were seven. He could feel his lips curling in disgust. Mino knew nothing about you. But before he could think about why that mattered, Mino spoke. Sounding uncharacteristically emotionless, he said,
“Oh okay. That’s great hyung! I had no idea. Well, if you’d excuse us, we have some things to take care of.”
Mino’s heart lurched when he heard that. great. Not again. His ex-girlfriend cheated on him with Jiyong hyung. She confessed the next day and she promised that Jiyong had no idea who she was, because they’d never met or been introduced, and he didn’t even know her name. Mino could only ask, laughing through the tears,
“You were okay with sleeping with a drunk Jiyong hyung who didn’t even know your name? Were you that unhappy with me?”
Her eyes widened and she tried to lie, saying that it wasn’t him, it was her and that none of it was a reflection on Mino, but Mino couldn’t hear any of that. He just heard that he wasn’t enough. That he wasn’t satisfactory. All his love meant nothing. He didn’t date anyone for two years after that. He couldn’t. But when he saw you, with your bright smile and carefree happiness, you drew him in. And now, he was scared this was all just going to repeat itself.
The rest of the night, you could tell something was off with Mino. None of his smiles reached his eyes. His adorable excitement was gone. He stopped touching you. And you were worried sick. You didn’t know what he was thinking, but you hated that he was feeling sad. You wanted to hold him, reassure him, tell him everything, but he wouldn’t even look at you.
You thought Jiyong would leave the party immediately. You were wrong. He stayed out on the balcony, still unable to believe anything he just witnessed. All he knew was that he had to talk to you. He waited until guests were slowly starting to leave. You were at the door, seeing them off while Mino was on the couch, talking to some of his friends. Jiyong walked over to you, moving as close as he possibly could and talking in a low, hushed tone, he said,
“Y/N, what are you doing? Why would you date Mino? He’s not the right guy for you. You won’t be happy with him.”
If you had heard him, you would’ve gotten mad. You would have fought back, asking him what he knew about your happiness. But you didn’t. You just murmured a half-hearted goodbye and continued staring at Minho, worried sick about why he was upset. Jiyong looked back at Mino, fists clenched. He had never felt so much anger towards him, and he still didn’t know why he was angry. He looked back at your worried face, and he knew you weren’t going to listen to him, and so he left, furious, without even knowing why.
After everyone left, you finally got a chance to talk to Minho alone. He was still sitting on the couch, head in his hands. You walked over and sat down next to him, putting your hand on his back.
“Minho, sweetheart, what’s wrong?”
He looked back at you with haunted eyes.
“Why didn’t you tell me you knew Jiyong hyung Y/N?”
“I didn’t know you knew him either, otherwise I’d have told you about it when you met Mirae.”
“Y/N, is there something I don’t know about you and Jiyong hyung?”
You could see Minho spiralling as he asked you that. You softly decided to ask him another question.
“Minho, is there something I don’t know about you and Jiyong?”
He turned away, eyes red. You waited. You knew he would talk to you. He just needed a little time. And sure enough, he did. Voice hoarse, he began.
“My ex cheated on me with Jiyong hyung.”
You couldn’t control the gasp that left your mouth.
“He didn’t know who she was. He had never met her. He didn’t even know her name. He was drunk out of his mind that night, and never bothered to learn her name, but she still wanted to sleep with him. She was sober. She never drinks. Even at his worst, she wanted him more than she wanted me.”
Your heart broke for Minho. Your poor boyfriend. He didn’t deserve that. And he was so shaken. But you did owe it to Minho to tell him about how you used to like Jiyong. You were just scared it would hurt him more. You gently peeled his hands away from his head and pulled his head to your chest. Minho stiffened at first, but then he slowly wrapped his arms around your waist and held you tighter. His body began to shake with sobs. He needed to let it all out. And you let him. You just held him close, gently massaging his head, telling him to let it all out. You could tell him after that.
