♡jimin;
I watched Tae with sad eyes as he laid in his bed, not moving an inch.

He had been like this for weeks now.

He was close to losing his job too.

My heart went out to him.

What he did was wrong but he was blinded by love and fear of losing his other half.

Now she's gone and he doesn't know how to cope with it.

She's been gone for months now.

Soon it would be a year.

I'm not sure how much longer he could handle this.

Pulling out my phone I scroll to y/n's contact.

I never even tried to text her.

I just assumed she wouldn't reply so I never tried.

Leaning against the doorframe, I type out a long message.

I don't know if you will get this message or if you'll even care but please hear me out. Tae needs you, y/n. I've known him all of my life and when he loves something and someone he loves them with everything he's got. I know what he did was wrong and I'm sure even he knows that at this point. He's self destructing before my very eyes. He won't get out of bed, he won't shower, he barely eats and drinks, he doesn't do anything but lay in bed and cry until he falls asleep. He's breaking y/n and I'm not sure what he'll do when he completely shatters. I'm not sending this to you for you to pity him. In fact that's the last thing I want to do, but you just need to know. He needs you y/n. Please, just consider coming back. Just talk to him. -Jimin.

I hit send then slide my phone back into my pocket and look at Tae.

He was still laying there lifeless.

My heart broke as I watched my best friend lay there, self destructing before my very eyes.

If y/n doesn't come back soon, I'm not sure what he'll do.
•••

A couple days had passed and there was still no text from y/n.

Tae still laid in bed but the only difference was he didn't cry anymore.

He just stared at the wall with a blank look on his face.

He was dehydrated and refused to drink the water I gave him.

I never once left.

I was too afraid to leave him here by myself.

He had fallen into a deep state of depression and there was only one thing that could cure him.

The front door opened slowly and my eyes widened at who walked in.

"Y/n.."

"Hi." She says quietly.

I run to her and throw my arms around her.

"I didn't think you would actually come. Oh god y/n please go talk to him. He's a mess." I say as I pull back from her.

Y/n's eyes are sad as she sets her bags down on the floor by the couch.

"Where is He?" She asks.

"In his room. He hasn't left his bed since the night you left. I've only ever seen him get up to go to the bathroom." I say and y/n's expression breaks my heart.

"Has He been eating? Please tell me he's been eating." Y/n says as she begins to walk towards his room.

"Barely. Once In a while I can force him to eat but it's always very minimal." I say.

Once we reach Tae's room I see y/n crinkle her nose at the smell.

Like I said, he didn't shower.

"Tae.."

Y/n's voice is quiet.

He doesn't move.

I hold my breath as y/n walks to the side of the bed so that she's right in front of him.

"Now I'm seeing you too.." Tae says, his voice holding no emotion whatsoever.

"No, baby. I'm actually here." Y/n says, her voice sounding as if she may break down into tears.

"Y/n?"

Tae was moving now, his head snapping upwards as he sat up.

"I'm here." Y/n says and suddenly he pulls her into his arms, leaving no room for her to move to even hug him back.

As he moved up you could see just how skinny he had gotten.

My heart really broke for them.

"I'll leave you two to talk." I say and before I reach for the knob, Tae talks.

"Thank you Jimin, for everything."

I smile and nod before heading out.

Just to see my best friend smile again was enough to make me happy for the rest of my life.

•••
Her;
"I can't believe you came back. I thought I lost you forever." Tae says in a low and broken voice.

You could tell he hadn't been talking at all and that his mouth was dry from not consuming any water.

"Please, drink this." I say as I hand him a glass of water from his bedside.

He watches me as he raises the cups to his lips and drinks the water without leaving a single drop.

"I'll go get more." I say but he grabs my hand, stopping me.

"No, don't leave." He say, his eyes tired.

"I'm not going anywhere." I say and watch as he lays his head in my lap.

"Im So Sorry. I promise I'll never do anything like that again." Tae says as he looks up at me.

"Shh, it's okay." I say as I push back the strands of hair that are in his eyes.

His hair had gotten so long.

He had really let himself go..

"I love you y/n. I love you so much." He says as a tear falls down his cheek.

I lean down and kiss his forehead.

"I love you too Tae." I say softly.

He begins to cry more as he clings onto my shirt.

All I can do is let him cry as he holds onto me.

He was so broken and it was my fault.

Now it's my turn to fix him.

•••

After awhile Tae had fallen asleep.

He looked so exhausted and worn out.

Slowly, the door creaks open and reveals Jimin with a tray of food.

"Is everything okay?" He asks as he looks down at Tae.

I nod as I look down at him too.

He was still still clinging to me, as if I would disappear when he woke up.

"Everything is going to be okay." I confirm.

"Thank you for coming y/n. I really didn't know if he could last much longer without you." Jimin says and I can see the pain in his eyes.

"Thank you for staying with him. He really needed you. You're an amazing friend, Jimin." I say.

He gives me a sad smile and walks the food over to the bedside table.

"Make sure he eats when he wakes up." Jimin says.

"Of course."

"I'll get going. Thank you again for coming back. Tae really needs you y/n." Jimin says and I smile.

Jimin smiles and heads out, leaving me alone with the small broken man That was asleep in my arms.

"I'm so sorry, Taehyung. I'll never leave you again." I whisper as I feel a tear fall down my cheek.

Everyone makes mistakes and the best way to grow is to put them behind you.

And that's just what we'll do..

•••
Him;
When I woke up my heart instantly felt heavy as I looked up at the woman I love.

She came back..

Y/n came back..

"You're awake." She says softly upon noticing.

I sit up even though I didn't want to.

"You should eat." Y/n says as she pushes the plate towards me.

My stomach instantly growled and I didn't fight it.

Instead I took the food and shoveled it into my mouth.

I almost forgot how amazing food tasted.

Y/n watched me with sad eyes.

I could tell she felt bad for me as she watched me eat.

She was blaming herself, As I expected she would.

Yet this was no ones fault but my own.

I did This to myself.

•

After I finish eating y/n insists that I take a shower.

She didn't even have to tell me twice on that one.

I could smell myself and I was the definition of literal trash.

"What if I come back and you're.."

I didn't even get to finish my sentence as y/n hushes me.

"I'm not going anywhere." Y/n says and I can tell by the look in her eye that she meant it.

I give her a small smile and head for the shower.

Stripped from my clothes I could instantly see all the weight I had lost.

I looked like a completely different person.

I step into the shower and turn the hot water on, slowly letting it dance over my skin.

I cleaned and cleaned myself again.

Once I was finished I got dressed in a white T-shirt and black sweats that hung loose on my hips.

I combed my hair and brushed my teeth.

I made sure to spray cologne too.

Coming back into my bedroom I noticed that my bedsheets had been stripped away and all the clothes from my floor were now gone.

Y/n wasn't in the room but I heard her somewhere in the house.

Stepping in front of the mirror I take a look at myself.

I still had bags under my eyes and the weight was still gone but something had changed.

The life in my eyes had returned.

Just then my door opens and my eyes flicker in the direction of it.

There I see y/n walking into the room, a smile on her face as she sees me up.

My happiness had returned.
