Disappear

Chapter One

It's unclear where our story begins...

Neither Jimin or I have a recollection of the day we met, it was like suddenly, in a moment, I was just .... there.

It was natural for both of us, we never questioned it and didn't care to.

The only thing we cared about were each other.

His family on the other hand, didn't seem to care about me moving in but they don't like the amount of time we spend together... they don't like me.

But I'm not here for them, I'm here for Jimin.

I dont know where I came from.

We were just kids when I found Jimin ... he shivering cold, alone, bruised and crying.

I gave him the scarf I had around my neck and I hugged him till he fell asleep on my lap.

That sparked a never ending bond between us.

Jimin calls me Yuri, So it's what I go by as now.

I don't have a family other than him... he's the closest thing I have to hold.

I've watched him grow up... and he's my best friend.

Our bond created this drive in me to always protect him, for that reason I don't let him out of my sight.

Bullies target him a lot and I found him at his lowest point in life.

"You found me just in time", is something he would say to me on a daily.

But ... did I?

Lately his mind has been fading, his appetite decreasing, and his ora... changing.

He's not happy.... how do I make him happy?

I make him laugh, and I make him smile but he's not happy.

He's hiding from me, why?

I always know what he's thinking, it's a gift of mine and it's what helps me understand him.

But lately his head is empty.

I want him to get better.

Ever since we found each other he's been struggling with his emotions.

Sadness overcomes him... takes control and drags him down.

That's where I step in... we talk it out and I take the sadness away.

If his mother would just let us be then maybe he wouldn't be so angry all the time.

.... Jimin ignores me around his family now.

Why do they have to be this way, I'm a person too... I have emotions and a heart just like anyone else.

I... I love him and I'm not going anywhere, they should accept that.

I do more than they do to help yet they wish I never existed.

They send him to a psychiatrist now, but what will that do that I can't?

It's useless and a waste of money, he has me... he doesn't need anything else.

I refuse to be replaced.

I will not lose him.

So I'll wait... I'll wait for him to get home so that I can make him mine forever.

But... as he walks through that wooden door, my scarf still wrapped around his neck... he looks at me with those puffy eyes, symbolizing that he's been crying.

Within an instant, I grab his hand and pull him into a hug.

For a moment, I forget what I was going to tell him, instead, I indulge myself into him and become his rock.

This is what I live for.

Pulling away from the hug I hold his face and stair onto his eyes, "I love you Jimin".

My face heats up the same moment his does and he says the one thing I wanted to hear back, "I love you too".

I place my lips onto his and fall into his embrace.

Now, he's holding me for once.

Now, his family with have to accept me.

And now.... they can stop trying to replace me.

Or... so I had hoped.
