"Is it still hurting?"

Jungkook asks in concern, looking over at the injury on your shoulder and leg.

You shake your head, passing him a reassuring smile.

The other members were there too, comforting you

But

Jimin had just disappeared.

You wanted to talk to him. And thank him.

But the last time you saw him, he seemed to be mad at you.

You slowly stand up from the couch, walking past Jin who was yelling at the guys for being the reason this happened because they didn't do their job of taking out the trash.

Carefully going up the stairs with your sprinted feet, you make your way to Jimin's room.

Holding in your breath after reaching his door, You slightly knock.

"What?"

"It's me... Y/n..."

"..."

"Can I-"

The door creaks open, him standing there looking down. He turns around walking back to his bed.

All of a sudden, you had forgotten everything you wanted to say.

And became nervous.

You didn't know why,

If it was because seeing this new terrifying side of him,

or back then when he said all those things.

You didn't want any of that to matter anymore. He had just saved your life.

You open your mouth but no words come out. What the hell was this.

He used to be someone you could spill your heart to. Without any fear at all.

Why did this change have to form?

Why did this special relationship have to build cracks?

Maybe it was your fault. But you wished you could fix it too.

If not anything, then just friends.

"I... I wanted to... thank you for-"

"No need... It's fine. Any other member would have done the same..."

And back to silence, it was.

"Does... Does it hurt...?"

You ask, looking over at his bruised fist.

He swiftly covers his hand by pulling his sleeve down, shaking his head.

"No."

He utterly says.

Your head drops at his lack of communication.

True, sometimes one just doesn't feel like talking.

But Jimin was never one of those.

It felt like the connection you had with him had completely shattered.

And that hurt.

"How did you know that I needed help...? You came just on time..."

You question, trying to hold a conversation but he just shrugs.

This was annoying.

You had had enough.

"Why... Why aren't you talking to me..."

He doesn't reply.

"Hey- I'm- I'm talking to you! Why are you ignoring me!"

You yell, getting frustrated.

Again,

no reply.

You walk over to him, Holding on his shoulders.

"Answer me, Jimin...

Please...

You're drowning me in the silence..."

"Answer you with what Y/n?

I'm afraid of myself now.

Things I say now just come out without any meaning.

I have already hurt you enough,

I'd rather go mute than continuing to cause you pain..."

His voice cracks, backing away as if he wanted to isolate himself from you, so his agony doesn't cause you distress. You shake your head.

"You aren't causing me any pain!"

"Don't lie to make me feel better..."

This was the thing about him.

He knew when you were hurt.

He knew when you were lying.

He knew you way too well.

And sometimes,

That's the thing that breaks relationships apart.

"okay fine...

It's true. Your words really did hurt me.

But there was my mistake in that too...

We both were to blame... so

don't put guilt only on yourself...

If we share it, Jiminie...

It's a lot easier to deal with..."

You say softly and he lifts his gaze, looking into your eyes.

But then he glances away, shaking his head.

"I don't want to share my negativity...

I don't want others to endure the torture of my mistakes and regressions.

I'm fine alone, Y/n...

I deserve to be alone...

So leave me al-"

You cut him off by a hug,

His eyes widening.

"Please don't say that...

You're not alone...

You have me...

And the rest of BTS...

And we'll always be here for you...

I'll always be here for you.

Don't you remember how we used to be like, Jiminie...?

Always sticking by each other when hard times came...

Laughing together...

Crying together...

We shared each other's agony and that's what helped us get through.

And we can continue to walk a supporting road...

as long as we stay by each other's side.

You don't have to go through anything alone.

There may be things that I won't be able to understand...

But I will support you no matter what..."

You let go, stepping back.

Jimin had tears in his eyes that he tried his best to keep in.

"So cheer up, Oppa...

Because your smile is quite contagious, you know?

It's hard to count how many days it brightens up"

He was looking at everywhere but your eyes.

As if they were a trap for him unveil himself.

An excuse for him to escape the harsh reality.

And he just doesn't know what to say.

He couldn't tell you that just you being there with him was enough to bring him joy.

Neither could he tell you that you were the only reason he was still alive and feeling emotions.

So he just leaves.

walking past you and gets out of his room.

leaving you there.
