Ep.11 Whispers of the Heart

After Family Dinner

Jimin's Room
Jimin lay in bed, staring at the ceiling, his chest heavy with unease.
What if Taehyung doesn't feel the same? What if, one day, Taehyung finds someone else who isn't him?

A pang of fear and pain gripped his heart, and his stomach churned. The idea of losing Taehyung-of never seeing the gentle smiles or the soft glances- made him want to scream.

Taehyung'sRoom

The sound of water running filled the quiet bathroom as Taehyung leaned against the cold tiles, letting the warmth of the shower wash over him. He had hoped it would clear his mind, but it only made his thoughts more.

His mind replayed Jin's words about Jimin getting married to another alpha. That thought alone made something inside him twist painfully. He had always known Jimin would find someone one day, but he never expected to feel this... jealous.
Why does it hurt so much to think of Jimin with someone else? Tae thought. Am I angry because he's my younger brother. It's normal to feel protective... right?

Taehyung leaned his forehead against the shower wall, taking a shaky breath. "Why does it feel like I've losing something so precious?
"Why does this feel so... complicated?" Taehyung muttered, running his hand through his wet hair.
Taehyung sighed, shutting off the water. He wrapped a towel around his waist and stared at his reflection in the mirror, droplets trickling down his face. His expression was unreadable, but his eyes were filled with questions he couldn't answer.

Some Time Later
Taehyung found himself standing outside Jimin's room. He hesitated, his knuckles hovering just above the door.

What am I doing here? he thought, his heart thumping in his chest. But when he heard Jimin's soft voice calling out, "Tae? Is that you?" his resolve crumbled.

Pushing the door open, he found Jimin sitting cross-legged on his bed, surrounded by pillows, his face lit by the soft glow of his phone screen.

"Tae, what's wrong?" Jimin asked, tilting his head in concern.

"Nothing," Taehyung replied quickly, rubbing the back of his neck. "I just... couldn't sleep."

Jimin patted the bed beside him. "Come on, then. Don't just stand there like a weirdo."

Taehyung let out a small chuckle and sat down, sinking into the warmth of the blankets.

"You're acting strange," Jimin teased, poking Taehyung's arm. "Did you have a bad dream?"

"No," Taehyung muttered.

Jimin tugged the pillow away, grinning. "Aw, does my big brother need cuddles?"

"Shut up," Taehyung mumbled, but the corner of his lips twitched upward despite himself.

Slowly, he wrapped an arm around Jimin, feeling the soft rise and fall of his breathing.

As Jimin nestled deeper into the embrace, his eyelids grew heavy, and soon he drifted into a peaceful sleep.
