Start from the beginning
                                    

Jimin eyed Jungkook before looked down to see what was Jungkook had stepped on and as the time his eyes caught the 'thing', his eyes widened as it was actually the pill that Jungkook had accidentally stepped on it. Before Jungkook opens his eyes, Jimin swiftly moved his hand to grab the pill and quickly stood up on the floor.

"What the fuck was that?" Jungkook asked while already get on his feet.

"What?" Jimin wore an innocent look on his face.

"The thing on the floor, you took it in your hand. What was it?"

"It's nothing. I didn't take anything. What are you talking about?" Jimin gave a striking lie to the taller while slowly moved his hands to be at the back of his body, trying to hide the small stupid pills from Jungkook.

"What a dumb face trying to fool me. What's the thing that you're trying to hide?" asked Jungkook in serious, walking towards Jimin with eyes sharped on Jimin's hands behind the boy's back.

In the grip of silent panic, wild eyes, pupils dilated, heart racing, brain on fire, brain synapses firing like a hyped-up internal aurora borealis, like a cluster bomb exploding in Jimin's brain, Jimin quickly brought his hand up to shove the pill in his mouth and closed his mouth tightly like it was being glued.

Jungkook seems perplexed, eyebrows were knitted together with mouth shaping into a wide shaped, "Did-... Did you just eat that?!"

Jimin hummed and stepped away from Jungkook but the taller keep on walking towards him. It was like karma. The things that Jimin had done to Jungkook earlier was like a playback to him.

"Open your mouth." Jungkook widened his eyes and pursed his lips together.

Jimin shook his head while creating an angry expression on the face that he thought it was enough to make Jungkook back away but he didn't know that the expression has made Jungkook became more eager to know.

"You just ate something that I had stepped on it. Spit it out, it's dirty."

Jimin still refused to open his mouth. Jungkook didn't seem like wanting to stop himself from coming closer to Jimin and Jimin was now circling in the middle of the room until his back had reached his wardrobe. His face immediately twisted into a panic look.

"Come on, spit it." Jungkook didn't think much, he cupped Jimin's face with his one large hand and squeezed both of the boy's cheeks to make Jimin opened his mouth.

He chuckled lowly when Jimin was already pissed, furrowing the eyebrows hardly in madness but he didn't care at all. He was enjoying teasing the boy at the same time.

Jungkook didn't realize that he was cornering Jimin with his body and they were already so closed to each other. Jimin brought his hands to be placed on Jungkook's broad and naked chest and he pushed the taller to the back but Jungkook didn't move an inch.

But seconds after, he can feel that his jaw started to create a real pain that caused his eyes to squeeze shut. He tried to talk to tell Jungkook to let him go but Jungkook was griping his face too hard making him hard to mutter a word.

His hands were already shaking, trying to hold Jungkook's hand and gripped it around the wrist. Tears escaped from his eyes and that was the time when Jungkook instantly let go of him with eyes widened in shock, the brain was alarming a mistake.

"I'm... I'm sorry." He quickly apologized and softly cupped Jimin's face with both of his hands. "I'm sorry. I'm sorry...Sorry for hurting you." He said while wiping Jimin's tears away with his thumb in between a vortex of guilty inside of him.

Jimin's body felt numb and his chest started to give him a hard time. He felt weak and can't even feel his hand. His hand was still placed around Jungkook's wrist and Jungkook's hands both were still cupping his face.

They stayed at the position without moving, Jimin closed his eyes while trying to hold the pain together as he didn't want to show it to Jungkook and the taller was staring at him in worried.

"Are you hurting somewhere?" the true soft voice that Jungkook has not been using it for a long time had now been used to Jimin. Jungkook asked softly to Jimin but only received a shook head and low sniffles from the teary boy.

Jimin knew that it can be harmful to his body if he just swallows the pill down his throat without water. But seeing the situation he was having at the time, he didn't think any further as he just swallowed the melting pill and looked up to Jungkook with glossy eyes.

He was about to step away from Jungkook but he didn't have any chance to do it when the time his eyes caught Seokjin who was standing at his door, looking at them and to Jungkook with a creased forehead.

"What are you both doing?" his cold voice has made Jungkook flinched away from Jimin and had his hands both behind his back.

Jungkook looked up to his brother with face showing a surprised look. "H-Hyung..."

"What are you doing?" Seokjin repeated.

"Nothing."

"You." Seokjin moved his eyes to glare at Jimin. "Why are you crying?"

Jimin quickly wiped his tears off from his eyes and shook his head without uttering any words as a reply. His muscle jaw was hurting that he can't even open his mouth to talk.

"Go back to your room, Jeon Jungkook"

"Okay, hyung. I will."

As the time the elder finally walked away, Jungkook immediately paid his attention to Jimin and witnessed the boy was looking not so well.

"Jungkook..."

"Yes?"

"Can you help me?"

"Sure." Jungkook went closer to Jimin and immediately catch Jimin's hands when Jimin suddenly almost to faint.

"Yah!" he was panicking, "What's wrong?"

Jimin barely opens his eyes but still trying to stand on his feet with the help from the taller. Jimin shook his head, "Help me... to the bed."

"Sure, but can you walk?"

Jimin didn't respond to it and it led Jungkook to bent his knees down a little and strongly lifted Jimin up in his hand and walked towards the bed to lay Jimin down with full of gentle.

"New Face?" he looked closer to Jimin's face and found that Jimin's eyes were already closed.

He sighed in confusion plus in worried. Jimin unawares turned to pale and was a bit sweating which makes him stared at the boy without blinking.

He adjusted the temperature in the room to be balanced and kindly wrapped Jimin's body with the soft material of the blanket. He gently lifted Jimin's head to tap the pillow a little to make sure it was comfortable enough to rest on it and wiped the sweats on Jimin's forehead with his bare hand.

He was too focused on taking care of his friend until he didn't even realize that his brother was actually staring at him at the door with a worried look.

"Jungkook-ah..." whispered the elder under his breath with a tight feeling inside of his chest.
