Don't Fall Away >>yoonmin<<

"To the times when the 10-year-old boy sang
the theme song to his favorite superhero comic
I wanna go back so I close my eyes and scream
But nothing changes, reality is the same." - Bangtan Sonyeondan - Jump

Jimin and Yoongi jumped at Tae's voice, pulling apart from each other.

"Yoongi?" Tae questioned, seeing his hyung sitting on the floor.

"Yes, Taehyung?"

"What are you doing here?"

"Grabbing water obviously." Yoongi grabbed a random glass from the fridge.

"Yoongi that's-" but it was too late.

Yoongi took a huge gulp of the drink until a scowl went across his face and he spat it out all over the kitchen.

"Vinegar." Tae finished.

Yoongi ran towards the sink and washed his mouth out, getting water all over his face.

Tae and Jimin were giggling, and Yoongi flipped them off and walked towards his room to change.

"So what was that?" Tae asked awkwardly, hands stuffed in his pockets.

"Nothing Tae, let's just finish the movie OK?" And they did.

And they fell asleep on the couch, all cuddled up.

Yoongi of course didn't like that when he woke up in the morning the first thing he saw were Jimin and Taehyung sleeping together.

But he made his cereal in silence anyway.

Yoongi exhaled deeply after doing 100 sit ups, ready to do another set. The rest of the boys had all left, some to visit family and friends, and others to see a movie.

It wasn't the first time he was home alone. Growing up his father wasn't around much, and his mother and brother were always working or going out.

After the incident of course, things changed.

His mother had to deal with it, and his brother turned to clubs and partying to cope. While Yoongi bought himself a blank notebook, and all he did was write rhymes in them.

Over and over and over until they were perfect.

At school he would damage the textbooks with his lyrics, always having to write I will pay attention in class at lunch everyday. Eventually,  his friends left him, because they thought his dreams were stupid, leaving him alone. 

As Yoongi looked up at the ceiling he thought of all those times he was with the wrong people.

15 year-old Yoongi ran down the alley between two shops in Daegu. Carrying a bag of stolen candy and his notebook.
