"Without repulsion You accepted meWithout you there's nothing" - Suga-First Love, 2016

Right then and there, Jimin knew that if he said a word about this, everything was going to go wrong.

And that's why, right here, right now, he's in his room with a not locked door seeing as no one would've come in to disturb him anyway, crying his eyes out in frustration.

If he stayed with Yoongi, Manager Chang-hee would make them break up or even worse, leave the group, and if he broke off the relationship, the entire group would suffer and the fans would pick up on it like the detectives they are.

He curled in on himself and sobbed, letting out shaky breaths as he did so, paying no attention to the slowly opening door.

"Jiminie? Why are you crying?"

Jimin stopped and slowly rose his head but put it right back down because of the dizziness.

"No reason... No reason a-at all." Jimin said shakily gripping the pillow so hard his knuckles began to turn white.

"Come on, Jiminie, don't be like that," Yoongi says slowly wrapping his arms around the small boy's waist.

"Yoongi-hyung, we can't," Jimin says feeling the waterworks almost starting back up again, even though had never stopped in the first place.

"Mm? Why not?" Yoongi says making a protective cocoon over him and icing one arm to stroke his tear-stained cheek.

Jimin felt more like crying and began shaking in his boyfriend's arms, almost ready to regret the words that were about to come out of his mouth.

"We can't, I can't do it, Yoongi!"

Yoongi raised a brow and lifts himself off the bed to take a good look at his boyfriend.

"What happened?"

Jimin looked at his boyfriend and began to cry once more.

"I'm sorry!"

Yoongi held him close as he shook in his arms.

"Yoongi, we can't."

Yoongi rolls his eyes.

"If this is about the media again, they don't know a thing."

"That's not it," Jimin says shaking his head viciously. "It's the new manager."

Yoongi clicked his tongue in distaste. "I knew there was something off with him when I saw him." Jimin looks at Yoongi he continues before continuing. "What did he say?"

Jimin shakes his head.

"He-he told me that we should break up before we become disgraces and t-that he doesn't even want us in the same space!" Jimin says almost on the edge of becoming hysterical "And that we shouldn't even speak unless it's for greeting!"

Yoongi holds his shaking boyfriend close to his heart and tries to calm him down.

"It's been a year and no one has found out, I don't see why suddenly it's become a problem!"

Yoongi nodded and listened as his boyfriend was crying in his arms.

"We have each other, that's all that matters, right?"Yoongi says "Besides, BangPD-nim said this was only a temporary arrangement until Sejin returned, so it's only a matter of time until we won't have to see him again."

"But what if something goes wrong and Sejin goes M.I.A. or even worse, he dies?!".

Yoongi slightly chuckles before softly stroking his hair.

"It'll be ok. You're just thinking of all the worst possible scenarios."

Jimin shook his head and wiped his eyes.

"You're right, I'm sorry..." Jimin said trying to force a smile onto his face, but it didn't quite reach his eyes "Sleep with me, Yoongles?" he asks wiping his eyes furiously to the point they were all irritated and dry.

"I would do it even if you weren't in my arms being all said and stuff," Yoongi says.

(Just a little bit of fluff before the angst starts~)

In a town far away...

Somebody died

|-|-|

When BTS woke up the next morning, what the didn't know was that tragedy was going to befall the very next morning.

They were instantly called to the company studio in the morning and half of them hadn't even had breakfast yet.

BangPD-nim was sitting at his desk with a somber look on his face, Chang-hee wearing a similar expression.

"We're sorry to wake you so early this morning, but some news came in this morning that we cannot ignore," BangPD-nim says folding his hands underneath his chin. He takes a deep breath before addressing the news head-on.

"Last night, Sejin was walking home after a good night of celebratory drinking from what I have been told after the wedding." He says looking away "I don't have the right to judge, but what happened was, someone was involved in a hit and run which resulted in Sejin getting hit with a car and he died almost instantly."

Jin gasped in shock, Hoseok looked like he didn't know whether to laugh to cry, Namjoon just looked away gripping his fists so hard his knuckles turned white, Jungkook looked like he was about to cry as Taehyung held onto him, shaking relentlessly, Yoongi showed no expression on his face and Jimin started sobbing loudly.

"I know this is hard for all of you to take in, but this is what is going to have to happen." he says "As per the usual, we'll be attending the funeral in America, Chang-hee will be watching over it all and making sure the American press doesn't find out. And even if they do, we'll have Chang-hee and I there to help keep things on the calm side."

A heavy weight of dread and sorrow passes through the area as Jimin's sobs get louder and Yoongi proceeds to gaze into Chang-hee's soul, thinking of only god knows what.

"Pack up, we're heading to Detroit," BangPD says.

Jimin goes outside and leans against the wall near the door in despair.

"This is it...He's going to be here all the time..." he mutters trying not to start the waterworks, he already had a pounding headache from the night for, and he needed to be strong in case someone saw him and thought that he wasn't ok. The news would spread to the press and next thing you knew, the entire media would be full of messages and the news of Sejin's death would spread around faster than previously thought, he almost sighed at the very thought.

He knew he would have to go back in eventually, but now was especially not the time for that.

Jimin covered his mouth and felt the sobs wreck havoc on his body.

And Sejin...Lovable, fun, strict but caring Sejin... And he's dead now...

His job will get passed on to Chang-hee...

Jimin choked on a sob at the thought, he was going to miss him so bad...

Not as much as you'll miss Yoongi

No matter how much he really wanted to admit that he was wrong and everything would be alright, something in the back of his mind that was now coming to the forefront was saying otherwise and honestly, it was going to get ugly.

After some time, he finally managed to pull himself off the ground and go back inside.

"Might as well get some work down while we're here."

He walked into the dance studio to see the rest of the members getting warmed up as they came so early their choreographer probably didn't even have the time to get his morning latte, but I digress.

Jimin immediately got into his stretches while also making fun of some of his hyung's for not being as thorough with their stretches as he was.

"Not all of us can be as good at the splits as you Jimin!" Yoongi yelled from the other side of the room about to throw a shoe in that direction "Aish, you're worse than Jungkook!"

"I'm not even going to take offense to that," Jungkook says with a smug smirk.

"This is why I can't stand the maknae line," Namjoon says jokingly. "You all are such brats when it comes to the dance floor."

"Hey!"

"I know you aren't talking Mr.Everything I touch breaks," Jin says nudging him on the shoulder with his elbow.

"That dance beam thing was an accident!"

"Tell that to that uptight, Russian, ballet teacher"

|-|-|

Eventually, they started going over some of the choreography they already knew while waiting for their choreographer to come, Jimin's mind going other places costing him a multitude of times.

"Jimin, we can't have anyone dying while no one is here to call the ambulance right away," Jin says after putting his foot down after Jimin's 5th fall over someone's feet that day (or his own, take your pick.)

"I'm sorry, I'll do better," Jimin says holding his fists to his sides and trying not to bowl at things that didn't exist. The only thing that did exist was his internalized inferiority to the other members that showed.

"Fucking hell..." Jimin curses rising to his feet after feeling a rising pain in his lower leg and or ankle, whichever one came first, unless they were both being internally yet physically attacked at the same time.

"I know what will cheer you up!" Hoseok says turning on his phone and putting his music on.

"Hoseok, no..." Jimin groans hearing the familiar tune come on.

Hey! (Hey!)

Haha

No matter where you go! (Or where you look)

The pretty girls are-

A

O

A

Yes, aha!

You know, I know

You know, I know

I'm good

I'm hot

I'm fresh

I'm fly

Brave Sound~

Hoseok suddenly broke into the choreography and began doing the catlike motions and Jungkook joined in. Those three were the main three that did girl group dances (For some reason most of them being from or for the sexy concept, but I digress.)

Jimin joined them when the chorus came on, joining them in the sexy, catlike motions.

"I'll walk over to you like a cat, picking up a rose, I'll give it to you, I'll surprise you!" Jungkook says moving in sync with Jimin (who was himself in this dance practice because AOA has a member named Jimin).

"I'll walk over to you like a cat, While you're asleep, I will softly hug you, I'll surprise you!" Jimin sang with a real smile on his face.

"Shut up my favorite part is on!" Jin says.

Lalalalalalalalalalalalala!

Lalalalalalalalalalalalala-!

I'm good

I'm hot

I'm fresh

I'm fly!

Yoongi stuck his tongue out in Jimin's direction when he knew he was looking with a wild look in his eyes, basically saying "You know what's going to happen if you keep teasing me like that, right?"Jimin's body shuddered at the internal monologue he thought of using Yoongi's voice.

"Holy-" Jimin said with a hot blush on his face.

The dance is over and everyone is applauding them, except Taehyung, he's on the ground convulsing in laughter and his face is turning the deepest shade of red with tears streaming down his face.

Yoongi goes over to Jimin and hugs him from behind with a flirty smirk.

"I swear, you're such a tease, Jiminie."

Jimin felt a hot blush creep onto his face as he hid his face in his hands, silently wishing death upon himself as the members laughed collectively.

They stayed like that for a little bit, not worrying about what the world, the noise of the studio fading into background noise in their own little world, along with the sounds of Serendipity playing along with them.

Ah, he felt safe in Yoongi's arms, even considering that he was only slightly shorter than his hyung.

He could stay like this forever, really. Just melting into his warm hold, making him feel like all is right in the world for the moment.

"Park Jimin, Min Yoongi, are you two listening?"

Jimin was snapped out of his daydream and he was absolutely flustered.

"Yes, sir! I'm sorry, sir!" he said bowing repeatedly.

When he looked up, he saw Chang-hee glaring at him, and only then did he realize the gravity of the situation as he visibly paled. It was dizzying how fast his body temperature went from blazing hot to freezing cold in half a second.

...Shit
