Paws And Portents ~ Hoseok X BTS

Authors pov

Hoseok sat on the bed, staring at the wall. His anger had subsided, but he knew it wouldn't last. He couldn't believe the puppies he had loved so much with all his being—the puppies he had risked his life for—were treating him this way. It hurt his soul. Couldn't they understand that he loved Kyle? It wasn't easy to just break up with a boyfriend he had been dating for two months. Now that he thought about it, he realized he couldn't find his phone, and he was sure Kyle would be worried because they talked every day.

Hoseok sighed, wiping away the tears that fell on his cheeks. This sucked. He looked around the room, which now looked like a mad person had trashed it, and sighed again. After his tantrum, they hadn't even come to check on him. They just left him there. But Hoseok wasn't complaining; he didn't want to see their faces.

He thought about Chimmy. He had recognized the heart-shaped birthmark, which was now on Chimmy's left cheek instead of his head. He had always had beef with that puppy, and things had gotten worse now that Chimmy was human. Hoseok knew Chimmy hated him. It wasn't a new thing. He had known Chimmy hated him the moment he pooped on Hoseok's favorite sweater. Or peed on his bed while Hoseok was sleeping peacefully, unaware of what the rascal was doing on his bed.

Hoseok sighed, shaking his head. He sat up on the bed when he heard the lock on the door turning. He quickly stood up as the door opened, revealing the six men. They walked into the room with stoic faces, except for Jungkook, who had a soft look in his eyes.

Hoseok heard a ping and saw his precious phone in Jin's hand. His eyes lit up, and he rushed towards Jin, wanting to take his phone, but Jin hid it behind him. Hoseok frowned, his frustration growing.

"Give me my phone, Jin," Hoseok demanded, his voice shaking with anger.

Jin shook his head. "Not until you do what we ask."

Yoongi stepped forward, his eyes cold. "Call your boyfriend and break up with him, Hoseok."

Hoseok's eyes widened, and he suddenly felt his blood boil. "No! Absolutely not!"

"Hoseok, please," Jungkook said softly, stepping closer. "Just do it."

Hoseok shook his head vehemently. "Over my dead body will I break up with Kyle!"

Jimin smirked and took the phone from Jin. "Your boyfriend called you fifty times and texted you a hundred times," he said sarcastically, typing on the phone.

Hoseok fumed, his fists clenching by his sides. "Give me my phone, you bastard!"

Jimin ignored him, continuing to type. "Hoseok, just calm down," Jungkook pleaded, holding Hoseok back as he tried to charge at Jimin.

Hoseok screamed, thrashing in Jungkook's grip. "Let me go, Jungkook! Don't let them do this!"

Jimin looked at the phone, pretending to be Hoseok, and bluntly broke up with Kyle. "It's over," he typed. "I don't love you anymore. I've found someone else."

Kyle's response came quickly, his messages filled with confusion and heartbreak. "Why? Please, Hoseok, think about this. I love you so much."

Jimin showed the phone to Hoseok, who was now sobbing and pleading. "Please, Jimin, don't do this. Please, I'm begging you."

The others softened momentarily, their resolve wavering at the sight of their mate's tears. But the thought of Hoseok with someone else was unbearable.

Jimin's expression hardened as he typed the final message. "I don't love you anymore. Goodbye."

With a final, cruel smile, Jimin blocked Kyle's number and showed Hoseok the screen. "It's done," he said coldly.

Hoseok growled, tears streaming down his face. "You're a bastard," he spat, his voice filled with venom.

Jimin wiped the spit from his cheek with a look of disgust. Without a word, he crushed the phone in his hand and walked away.

Hoseok collapsed to the floor, kneeling as tears rolled down his cheeks. Jungkook hesitated, looking at Hoseok with a pained expression.

"Jungkook, come," Namjoon ordered, his voice firm.

Jungkook hesitated for a moment longer before following the others out of the room. He glanced back at Hoseok, his eyes filled with regret, before closing and locking the door behind him.

Hoseok stayed there, his body wracked with sobs. He knew then and there that he hated them with all his being. The puppies he had loved so dearly had betrayed him in the worst possible way. And now, he was trapped, forced to deal with the aftermath of their cruelty.

The room grew silent, save for Hoseok's quiet sobs. He felt utterly alone, his heart shattered.

"Why are they doing this? Why?"
