The figure faded away into nonexistence and so did the laughs.

Jungkook sobbed.

In relief or in fear, he didn't know. Didn't care either. The anxiety still pressing down on his chest yet relief flooding his insides at finally being free from that invisible and suffocating grasp.

He felt hands on him immediately and flinched so hard, that they left him alone.

"Baby. Jungkookie."

The familiar voice only made him cry harder.

Yoongi.

"Kookie, baby. It's Jimin. You're safe. Let me hold you baby. It's just me."

He gave a small nod and immediately felt himself engulfed in a hug, pressed into another's chest.
