18| Lot to learn

This kiss was different from the ones before. Less heated. It served a different purpose. Curiosity.
Their tongues moved slowly. Testing.
Yoongi hesitated for a moment, his hands near Jimins' waist but he wasn't sure if he could touch him.
Jimin noticed and guided Yoongis' hands to his waist. Jimin felt a little selfconscious at the touch but being engrossed in the kiss he managed to stay calm, wrapping his hands around Yoongis neck.

After a while they separated their lips, still staying close to each other, looking deeply into each others eyes, their foreheads almost touching.
"I see it now..", Yoongi quietly whispered.
"what?"
"That you love me... I guess I just didn't recognise it until now.. this look in your eyes."

Jimin smiled. "How come you only realise that now?"

Yoongis' eyes darkened as he went to explain: "I was a foster kid so there never really was anything like that for me. No one ever directed That kind of emotions towards me.", his voice was so low, Jimin could barely understand his words.

"At school people used to call me emotionless min behind my back. At a certain point they were all a little afraid of me, irritated by my inability to read or express emotions. As afraid as they were of me.. I was of them.. and myself."

Jimin felt a sting in his heart. He could not imagine all the loneliness that must have been part of Yoongis' life. Jimin pulled Yoongi close, placing his head on Yoongis' shoulder, near his neck, taking in the unique peppermint smell that always seemed to surround Yoongi.

"I guess we all have our battles, but you don't have to fight alone..anymore.", Jimin whispered into Yoongis' ear.

Yoongi let out a sigh and Jimin felt him really relax into the hug as if a huge weight had been lifted from his shoulders.

As one small tear escaped the corner of Yoongis' eyes he thought: "Maybe I don't have to fix you.. you fix me."
