"Will you still love me

When I've got nothing but my aching soul?"

-----------------------------------

Jimin sat on Yoongi's bed looking outside the window. Tears were rolling down his eyes. Two hours back when he had confessed everything about his life to Yoongi, he had thought that his decision was right but now he was not so sure. There had been no response from Yoongi. The older male had not even returned to his flat. Slowly Jimin started panicking thinking that he had lost his chance with Yoongi forever.

Jimin searched for his phone and found it in his coat pocket. He switched on the phone to find 53 missed calls and 10 messages, all of them from Yoongi.

Yoongi : Where are you Jimin?

Yoongi: Jimin you are scaring me. Please come back!

Yoongi : I swear to god Jimin I will kill you when I find you.

Yoongi : Jimin just come back. I love you cutie!

Yoongi : Jimin please.

Jimin smiled at Yoongi's messages. When he had left the house in the middle of the night he had hoped to come back soon after some thinking. But his wish was not fulfilled as Yoongi found him before that. Jimin had not planned the night to go as it had gone. This was the first time he had shared his past with someone outside Taehyung and his family.

Jimin sighed at his fate. Maybe nothing good was ever for him. He was however at peace thinking that a pure soul like Yoongi would be saved from someone like him. Someone who had committed a sin. Maybe Jimin was just better off alone.

Jimin broke from his thoughts on hearing the front door close. He turned back to find Yoongi tumbling his way into the room. The older male looked tired. Jimin's glance went to the redness on Yoongi's right knuckles. Realising that it was blood, Jimin rushed towards Yoongi and held up his hand.

- "Hyung, what happened? Did you hurt your hand somewhere?"

Yoongi took his Hand out of Jimin's grip and made his way towards the bed.

- "I hit a pole."

- "Why would you do that?"

- "I was stopping myself from murdering that son of a bitch."

Jimin was ready to counter-react to Yoongi but his words made him stop. Had he heard Yoongi right?

- "Hyung, it must have hurt so much. Let me get something."

Jimin rushed out of the room to the bathroom and found a first-aid box in the bathroom. He brought the box back to the room and sat on the floor cross-legged in front of Yoongi who was sitting on the bed. Jimin held out Yoongi's hand and started to clean his wound. The skin from Yoongi's knuckles had scraped indicating a deep injury. Jimin started to cry silently.

Yoongi who was looking intently at the younger male noticed the tears in his eyes. He brought his left hand towards Jimin's face

- "Why are you crying?"

- "Everything happened because of me. You are hurt so much."

Yoongi pushed himself down on the floor and sat in front of Jimin mirroring his position. He touched Jimin's forehead with his own and looked at the wide eyes of the younger male staring intensely at him.

- "Nothing has happened Jimin."

Jimin looked at Yoongi with a confused expression on his face.

- "Yoongi?"

- "No Jimin, listen to me. I heard everything you had to say. Now it's my turn."

- "Yoongi no."

- "Jimin, the whole incident is not at all your fault. You are the victim in the whole situation. You had just loved someone with all your heart. That bastard was the one who tricked you. Giving up your life for someone petty like him is disgracing your ownself Jimin. I will love you no matter what happens to you or what you have done in your life. Everything that happened is in the past. I could not say anything to you then because I was seeing red. I felt like going to Busan and kill your supervisor."

- "Yoongi!"

- "Yes Jimin, I love you. I love you to the moon and back. I don't care about anything except that now you are here with me. The present and the future is all I am concerned about Jimin. Do you care about me? Do you care about us?"

Jimin kept looking at the door to Yoongi's bedroom. Jimin had thought that he was incapable of love anymore. He had dragged the life-force out of Jimin but he was sure thathe felt something very strong for Yoongi.

- "I don't know if it is love but I want to stay with you. I have lost the track of my life. I don't know what to do."

Yoongi crashed Jimin hard against his chest. The younger male wrapped his arms around Yoongi's torso.

- "We will get there Jimin. Can you just give me a chance?"

- "Yes Yoongi."

Yoongi buried his nose into the younger male's hair and inhaled the sweet smell of the love of his life. Now that he knew that Jimin had no idea about true love, Yoongi was determined to show him what it meant. He knew that there would be days when Jimin would not be okay but Yoongi would try his best to help him. He was in no way letting someone precious like Jimin go for something which was never his fault.

- "I really want to kiss you now but I know you are not okay with it. I am ready to wait."

Jimin looked up at Yoongi. He could see the sadness reflecting from the older male's eyes but it was different from what he had seen in others eyes. This sadness was not pity. It was genuine.

- "I may not be able to give you anything ever."

- "The only thing I ever wanted was your heart. I don't need anything else. Know this Park Jimin ver well, I promise to never let you go. I promise to fight for you."

- "I promise to fight for you too hyung."

Both the males kept playing with each other's hair. They did not realize when they had fallen asleep on the floor of the bedroom.

The sound of Jimin's phone ringing woke them from their deep slumber. Jimin untangled himself from Yoongi who was also woken by the sound to find a call from his dad. 

- "Hello dad?"

Jimin motioned to Yoongi that he would go outside the room to attend to the call. Meanwhile Yoongi checked his phone to find numerous missed calls, voice mails and messages from Jungkook, Taehyung , Namjoon and Jin.

Unknown : Hyung this is Jungkook. I told everything to Tae. He is very worried. Did you find Jimin hyung?

Taehyung : Where is Jimin, hyung?

Jin : Are you lovebirds coming here today?

Namjoon: Are you coming to work today? Is everything alright?

Yoongi scrolled through his messages to find several others from Taehyung.

Taehyung : I can't get him on the phone. Where is Jimin, hyung? I am going to kill you if anything happens to him. He is very important to me.

Taehyung : I am coming.

Yoongi quickly shot a text to Taehyung followed by one each to Namjoon, Jin and Jungkook.

Yoongi : He is with me. We are alright.

Yoongi : Jungkook he is okay.

Yoongi : Namjoon, I am taking off today.

Yoongi : Jin hyung, we are taking a break today.

Taehyung almost instantly relied back to Yoongi.

Taehyung : Is he hurt? Are you safe?

Yoongi : We are absolutely alright. We need some alone time.

Taehyung : Okay!

Yoongi noticed that Jimin had returned to the room with a sheepish expression on his face.

- "What happened?"

- "I might have told mom about you."

- "And?"

- "They want to meet you."

- "We can go sometime soon."

- "Actually, the thing is they want to meet you today itself."

The only thing that Yoongi felt like doing at the moment was to laugh to his heart's content. He slowly started to giggle which later on turned to a full fledged laughter. Jimin stared weirdly at Yoongi.

- "Why are you laughing?"

- "I am meeting your parents."

- "So?"

- "Too soon."

- "It's okay if you don't want to. I'll tell mum."

- "I want to."

- "Really?"

- "Yes."

- "Okay!"
