The hallway light flickers as your knuckles tap against Jungkook's door, the metallic clink of your rings echoing in the silence. When the door swings open, the man before you is a ghost of your best friend — dark circles shadow his doe eyes, a stubble dusts his jaw, his nose reddened. Yet the scent that clings to him is almost intoxicating: clean fabric softener, his favorite cologne, and the faint, skunky whisper of premium weed. He blinks slowly, then offers a dry chuckle. "Oh, hey. Come in." He turns, leaving the door ajar as he pads back to the couch, and you're left standing there, wondering what broke him.
