"Yea, I can tell. You look-..."

"Dead."

Jimin quickly slaps Tae on his shoulder after his very true and obvious comment. I just laughed as he started rubbing his shoulder and began to pout again.

"You know who also looks dead? Jungkook! I've never seen him have such terrible bags under his eyes or be so tired."

I could feel myself stop breathing for a bit and my body tense up after hearing his name. I haven't seen Jungkook since last October or even heard of him besides on social media.

The three of them keep talking to each other while my mind goes off to it's own world. I was still hurt and angry after what happened with Jungkook even though it's been months already. Accepting the fact that Jungkook didn't love me anymore was hard to come around to, but I eventually had to since it was slowly making me feel even more miserable.

"Ally!"

I was finally snapped out of my mind when I felt someone gently grab onto my arm and call out my name. It was Jimin.

"You want to go grab some coffee with us?"

"I'd love to, but I think I should get back to practice actually." I start to stand up from my seat and proceed to say goodbye to everyone.

As I make my way out to the hallways and reach the elevator, I hear someone calling out my name from a distance. I see Jimin jogging towards me and I just stand there wondering what happened.

"Sorry, but I just wanted to talk to you privately without Mona and Tae."

"Talk about what?" Jimin takes a few steps closer to me and his face turns all serious.

"How are you really doing? Are you okay?"

I was taken back a bit by his sudden questions, but suddenly so many questions started racing through my head.

"You know you can trust me." Jimin tenderly grabs a hold of my hand. I looked down at our hands and I couldn't help, but be reminded of the times how Jungkook would hold my hand.

"I'm fine. I'm just really tired and out of it lately." I wasn't exactly lying to him, but in a way I wasn't exactly being truthful either.

"Ok, but just remember that you can always talk to me when you need to. No matter if I'm busy or what time of day it is, I'll always be there if you need me."

Hearing these words coming from him made me feel very comforted, something that I haven't felt in a while. But at the same time it made me feel scared because the last time someone said something like this to me, they left.

"Thank you." All I could do was give him a genuine smile and he did the same.

Just as I was about to let go of him, he pulled me into a hug and wrapped his arms around me tightly. It took me a couple of seconds to process what was going on, but once it did, I wrapped my hands around his as well.

Being in his embrace made me feel so safe and also forget about everything that I was going through. I'm glad that I have someone  like Jimin in my life.

JK's P.O.V.

I stopped dead in my tracks when I saw Ally. I wanted to go talk to her until I moved a little closer and saw that she was talking to someone. It was Jimin. As I looked at them both, my eyes dropped down and saw how Jimin was holding her hand.

I started to tighten my hand in a fist as I felt my blood boil from inside me. Suddenly, I see Jimin hug Ally tights in his arms.

Noticing how she didn't hug him back made me feel a little calm and I even wished in my head that she wouldn't, but I was soon disappointed when I saw her arms wrap around him.

I felt my vision getting blurry and my heart started to ache. It hurt seeing her hug someone else that wasn't me. I started to having many bad thoughts running through my head that I didn't like. Like the possibility of her moving on. Not being able to handle it anymore, I decided to walk away.
