Give Me Time
"Taehyung give it back!"
"Nope!"
"Yes!"
"Not a chance."
"Don't make me take it from you!"
"Try me." He said as he scurried away towards the living room.
I chased after him and he ran behind the couch with me in front of it. Every time I'd go to run one way he would go to run the other. It was almost like a tug of war; until I climbed up on the couch jumping on him. I clung to his upper torso with one arm wrapped around his neck and my legs circling his waist. My other arm reached up to his hand that was holding my phone.
"Oh...I rather like you like this." He said licking his lips his face a little too close for comfort.
"Kim Taehyung you give me my phone right now or so help me!"
"Fine!" He finally said but didn't move. "But only if you watch a movie with us. You've been cooped up in your office or sleeping all day, and we want to hang out."
I sighed heavily climbing down from him. "Okay I will watch a movie with you guys...happy?"
He smiled a big boxy smile as he handed me my phone. "Ecstatic."
I huffed a little as I took my phone. "I can't believe you took my phone." I said giving him a stern glare.
"Well don't leave it in your butt pocket any more...you have a nice ass so I look and that's when I saw it...and it gave me an idea." A cheeky smile spreading across his face as he walked towards the front of the couch.
I rolled my eyes at him and he chuckled. I plopped on the couch where Hoseok and Namjoon where and Taehyung plopped next to me. Thank god...if I had to sit next to Jimin I'm not sure what he would try. He came around the corner and eyed Taehyung darkly but didn't say anything. He sat on the other side of Namjoon...Jin coming in next to Hoseok with Jungkook clinging to his side.
The fact that Namjoon and Jin were currently not talking was painfully obvious...to everyone. Yoongi slouched onto the couch next to Namjoon. They seemed to be close friends and Yoongi was the only thing keeping Namjoon together right now. He hated the fact that Jin wasn't talking to him. On the other side; Jungkook was so worried about Jin, especially now that the house knew that he didn't have an alter, but a little personality. Jungkook was the only one Jin told but the news traveles fast. It was pretty late now and as we started the movie, I could see Namjoon stare at Jin. You could feel the heat from his eyes and Jin stood his ground not looking his way even for a second. Namjoon fidgeted a bit in his seat fighting the urge from his alter...he was keeping his cool...for now.
I wasn't really sure what movie we were watching because I was more focused on the 7 men I was sharing the room with. Jin...he seemed so much more relaxed since our conversation. I assume it has something to do with the fact that he doesn't feel the need to fight sliping into little space since he now knew he could control it. Yoongi was the same ol' Yoongi and our session wasn't until tomorrow night. I was going to try to meet his alter and see what kinds of things his alter says and does. Namjoon...well he was struggling. Jin was right...he is in love with him...he just cant admit it. Hoseok hasn't had his alter come back since last time we had a session. I think when we talk I'm going to take him to see his mother's grave and plant some flowers. He needs to know that her death was not his fault. Maybe if he accepts that he will be able to move on and his alter will disappear. Jimin...he sat there peacefully but you could tell his mind was on something else. Almost as if I called to him he turned to look at me. I wasn't scared of his eye contact and I just sat there looking at him. He is convinced that he is a danger to everyone in this house but I don't even think he has his alter anymore. It's been over a year now...and no activity. The past doctor should have let him out of this house already. He turned away before I did...and my focus went to the man sitting very close to my right. Taehyung. Tae didn't surface much anymore oddly....when I have my session I'm going to ask him about if he has communicated with his alter...but I doubt it. He and I have become quite close...he still maintains his flirtasious attitude but he is no worse than Jimin now. And then there is Jungkook. It has been a day since I gave him the medication and he is so relieved that he has it. I hope it works fast for him so he can move on with his goals.
"What has you so distracted?" I heard from beside me.
"What?"
"You look deep in thought." Taehyung whispered to me.
"Sorry...Doctor stuff."
"Wanna share?"
I laughed quietly. "Couldn't if I wanted." I said turning to him
He gave me a boxy smile and then it turned a bit sad. "I'm sorry you have to do this alone...even though we are all here I can't imagine how alone you actually feel."
"It's better this way...more than one doctor can be harmful to paitents." I said with a smile.
He nodded and looked back towards the TV but his gaze stoped just to the left. I followed his gaze and there was Jimin looking straight at us giving the dirtiest look I've ever seen him give.
That's enough.
Taehyung was about to say something but I spoke up first.
"Jimin can I please talk to you in the other room?"
He nodded and got up slowly and I followed him to the dark kitchen only the moon light guiding the way.
"What is your problem?" I whisper shouted at him as I turned to face him. "I am allowed to have friendships here...its part of the job...now if you keep giving me dirty looks like that..."
"I don't like him touching you." He interrupted.
"Jimin...its not inappropriate. You have done way worse!"
"Exactly." He said suddenly stepping closer to me. "I have tasted you ,and I don't want anyone else to know how sweet you are. Tae may not be surfacing so much but that just means that Taehyung is now thinking the things that Tae used to." He stepped even closer and his voice got quieter. "Do you not remember him breaking into your room...do you not remember all the times he pushed you up against a wall...you're on your second week here. People don't change in a week."
"And how would you know Jimin?" I said anger clear in my voice. "Are you a medical professional? Do you work with mentally ill patients on a daily basis?" He was about to speak but didn't give him time. "No you don't. People can change in a heartbeat if given the chance. When someone puts their mind to it there isn't anything you can't accomplish. Now grow the fuck up and realize that Taehyung and I are on a friendship level...nothing more."
We stood there close to each other both furious with the other. Neither of us speaking. Finally I sighed and rolled my eyes.
"Jimin..." I said in a softer tone. "You say that you'll wait...you say that you won't do anything to get me in trouble but you have done nothing but. Don't get me wrong...I want more to happen...I do. But we have to do this the right way." I said looking him deep in his eyes. "I need you to give me time...give me time to help everyone here...give me time to help you. Then..." I said stepping closer to him. "I can focus on reliving that dream I had the other night." I whispered in his ear.
Pulling back I saw the mischievous smile on his face. "You never did tell me what it was about."
"And I will not...for now." I said tapping him lightly on the nose.
We both laughed and he let out a dramatic sigh.
"I'm sorry...I just...I am a jealous person naturally so when I see you with Taehyung knowing he's attracted to you...it makes my blood boil." He traced the back of his finger across my jawline his eyes trailing after it.
I grabbed his hand and squeezed it softly kissing his knuckles. "Time...please...give me...give us time..."
He nodded and I let go of his hand walking out of the kitchen back into the living room. I took my place next to Taehyung who gave me a concerned look.
"Everything alright?"
"Everything is fine."
The movie kept playing but Jimin didn't come back to finish it. I saw him go back upstairs and heard his door shut softly. Hopfully he keeps his word this time and will give me time.
