Opposites attract

So what now

Jungkook had spent the night thinking, much as he wanted Jimin he couldn't reconcile the fact that Jimin would go to such extreme lengths rather than be with him. To actively go on the lookout for someone else and put himself in danger was a blow to Jungkook. Add to the fact accident or not he had hit his own omega, he hated himself for it.
It was early morning, Jungkook slipped off the bed covering the small omega, gently kissing his cheek, finding pen and paper he wrote a short note:
JIMIN,
Glad I could help last night, be careful when you go out in future, seems you were right we are not good for each other, let's agree to be acquaintances only it's better that way
Jungkook
Taking a last look at his omega he left.

Jimin woke up shooting up in bed looking around. He shook from the memories of the men from last night, he ran to the bathroom being violently sick. He had been stupid ,so stupid, thinking he could do whatever he wanted, whenever he wanted, bragging he didn't need a mate , calling his mate a dog and putting him down every opportunity using him for his heat when he had always sworn never to use someone for that then acting like a slut telling his friends he was going to pick someone up. He was disgusted with himself, if it hadn't have been for Jungkook who knows what would have happened.
He went to wash himself and clean his teeth, the acid taste in his mouth revolting, washing his face he felt an ache on one side , looking in the mirror he saw the large purple bruise on his cheekbone. He suddenly remembered Jungkook going to hit one of the men and him being shoved in the way, how sorry Jungkook had been and him telling the Alpha he knew it was an accident . Vague memories of Jungkook being there as he went to sleep.
He must apologise to him he thought as he went back into the bedroom, suddenly noticing a note.
Reading it he felt his heart drop, Jungkook had had enough, he didn't want to be with Jimin anymore just wanted to be 'acquaintances '. That put him firmly in his place how disgusted Jungkook must be by him and his behaviour, probably thought Jimin was a hypocrite chasing other men after accusing Jungkook of being a fuckboy.
Jimin felt an enormous sense of loss, to late he realised that he did feel something for the Alpha , he'd tried to hide it behind false bravado and now he'd lost him for good. Deep pain shot through his being , he knew from what he'd heard that some mates did refuse the other causing pain for both, usually they just ended up with a life partner that they didn't fully love but gave them companionship.or more normal just alone.
So what now thought Jimin, he couldn't imagine now being without his Alpha realising the back and forth banter was part of their relationship , he had liked to see the effect he'd had on the other.
His whole being felt steeped in self hatred, he had to get away from here for a while he couldn't face his friends or Jungkook. Looking at the clock he saw it was only 6.30 nobody would be around for a while .
Grabbing some clothes and other odds and ends he got a rucksack and packed them in. He liocked his apartment then went to the shop where he stuck a closed til further notice on there, he didn't feel like he could ask Jin to run the shop, his friends probably felt the same as Jungkook, after all he wasn't a very nice person.Locking the shop back  up he looked around the street that had become home then got in his car and drove away not knowing where he was going or for how long, or even if he had the nerve to come back.
Jungkook felt drained, he didn't feel like work but decided to go anyway, he didn't have to see Jimin, after all he'd let him know that he wouldn't pressure him anymore that Jimin was a free man he wouldn't annoy him by pressurising him to be his mate, something Jimin obviously didn't want. Maybe if they gave each other a wide berth for a while they could get to the point of being platonic friends?
He went to the tattoo parlour deliberately not looking across the road at the small boys shop. Opening up the shop he tidied around, checking supplies and ordering any stock needed. He was staring into space when RM and an agitated Jin came in,"I'm telling you babe something is wrong it's not like him."
"Trouble in paradise," Jungkook said looking from one to the other.
"Jungkook have you seen Jimin today?"
"Is there any reason why I should have?"
"Well I'm supposed to be working today."
"And?"
"There's a notice on the window saying closed until further notice, but he never said anything to me?"
Jungkook mulled over Jins words, he knew Jimin would have a right bruise on his face today from where he had hit him, although he had told Jungkook he knew it was an accident it didn't make the Alpha feel any better about it, but maybe Jimin just didn't want to explain how he'd got the bruise or what had gone on last night.
"Maybe he was worried about all the work you have been doing and didn't want to ask because of a prior commitment ?" Jungkook suggested.
"But he could have text, I can't get through to him it just rings." The other male said.
"Jungkooks probably right babe , we shouldn't harass him look how he got over Jungkook the other day!!!"
"I guess your right, I may just stick a note under his door, I'll be right back."
Watching the other go Jungkook quickly explained what had happened last night, how he'd saved Jimin but accidentally hit him and that maybe that was why Jimin was at home hiding.he also told him that He had let his mate know he wouldn't bother him again.
Jin walked in instead of looking at ease he looked more worried," it's 8.30, still early but Jimins car has gone?"
Jungkooks head shot up, he knew the car had been there when he left, what had happened to Jimin?
"Ring him again Jin," he asked getting that ansty feeling again inside.
The phone rang and rang no one answered, they then rang their friends no one knew anything about Jimin going.Hobi spoke to Jungkook about what had gone on at the club saying that after looking at cameras it seemed the two men had slipped something into one of Jimins drinks but although he'd drunk some of it half had been left when the men dragged him away, he told Jungkook he wouldn't bill him for the toilet door he'd broken and he was glad he had saved their little friend.
  Tae turned up at the parlour, Jin still worriedly there.
"Any news? Hobi told me what went down at the club,"
Jin reacted like the mother hen he was demanding to know the full story.
"Knowing Jimin he is probably embarrassed as hell ," Tae said trying to lighten the mood.
At that moment, Jim's phone pinged he glanced disinterestedly at it before grabbing it quickly
" Jimin....no!"
The other males looked in alarm at him, he showed them the message.
JIN SORRY TO LEAVE LIKE THIS BUT I DIDNT FEEL LIKE I HAD A CHOICE,IM THE WORST PERSON EVER, I FEEL ASHAMED AT HOW I TREATED YOU ALL WHEN YOU WERE TRYING TO GET ME TO MAKE UP WITH JUNGKOOK, YOU ALL HAVE BEEN SO GOOD TO ME.....IM ESPECIALLY ASHAMED AT TREATING MY MATE LIKE HE WAS NOTHING ALL HE EVER DID WAS HELP ME BUT I TRASHED HIM IGNORED HIM AND BRAGGED ABOUT HOW I DIDNT NEED HIM AND WOULD GO WITH ANYONE AND I ACCUSSED HIM OF BEING A FUCKBOY!!IM DISGUSTED WITH MYSELF RIGHT NOW AND DONT BLAME JUNGKOOK FOR SAYING ITS BETTER TO BE PLATONIC FRIENDS AFTER ALL IM CERTAINLY NOT THE MATE HE IMAGINED OR WANTS. PLEASE APOLOGISE TO EVERYONE FOR MY BEHAVIOUR, I NEED TO GET AWAY FOR NOW THE SHAME I FEEL MAKES IT HARD TO FACE ANYONE.
IF YOU WANT YOU CAN RUN THE COFFEE SHOP TAKE THE PROFITS DO WHAT YOU WANT, ALTERNATIVELY DONT BOTHER WITH IT ILL MAKE A DECISION ON IT LATER. THANK YOU FOR BEING A GREAT FRIEND IM SORRY I LET YOU ALL DOWN
P.S.YOU WERE ALL RIGHT ABOUT JUNGKOOK SHAME I DIDNT REALISE TIL I LOST HIM
JIMIN
"What the hell  where has he gone why did he leave like this?" Jungkook demanded.
"What exactly did you say in the note to him?" Tae asked.
"I told him he was right we are better off not being mates just in future be platonic friends?"
"Rejection," Jin, Tae and RM said at the same time.
"No I wasn't rejecting him , I realised how much he must hate me to put himself out there in danger just to get someone who wasn't me, he scared himself and me last night with what nearly happened, I stayed with him even when he slept he was shaking so much, then I wrote the note and left before he woke up I didn't want him to be embarrassed with me or obliged to say thanks."
"Fuck," Tae said," You meant well Jungkook and at any other time I would applaud you for trying to do the right thing but Jimin.......he looks at things as though it's his fault, when his parents died it was in a car accident, Jimin was at dance practice he was supposed to be home earlier but forgot the time and so when his mother called he apologised and said he'd come home straight away, being the people they were they told him not to worry that they would come pick him up and they could all go out to eat...., on the way a lorry ran a red light lowing into his parents car and killing them. Jimin always said that if he had got home on time his parents wouldn't have come out and would still be alive, I told him many times that his parents cared for him deeply and that it was an accident but he always responded that he doesn't deserve anyone's love and care, it's why I think he set his mind against having a mate.
Now after last night he will be blaming himself again, probably ashamed at what he said and did , if that message to Jin is anything to go by, he probably feels he has let us down and now he's realised about Jungkook it will be the worst thing for him since his parents," Tae's eyes were filled with tears he'd seen his friend suffer in the past knowing how much he heaped blame on himself, where his friends had just classed it as Jimin letting off steam when he shouted at them, Jimin would be full of regret and hate.
"Give me his number!"Jungkook demanded worry evident in his tone, instead Jin said," use mine, he may not talk to you," Dialling the number instead of the rings being ignored a message came saying, 'this number is no longer in service'
"Damn, what has he done where's my mate, I need him," Jungkook slumped tears running from his eyes defeat in his posture.
