As soon as Taehyung left me alone, I couldn't believe it, again this was repeated. However, this time the funny guy left me to have fun instead of just writing on notebooks or vegetating at home. It scares me!
I danced and drank alone, I didn't go talk to any of the boys but I knew I was being watched by them all the time. It's Jin's fault for dating that brat and now our group has been invaded by his friends!
After a girl showed up and asked me to dance, I couldn't refuse. Dancing was my second greatest pleasure, no one could deny that if one day I stopped modeling, the dance floor would be my second profession.
Slower music started to play, and my body was glued to hers, I couldn't face her since my body required my full attention. The music took us and we both spent it entirely together. Until Jin arrives pulling me as if he were my boyfriend. I had no choice, leave without apologizing to the girl or if you want to remember her face. This brusque action of his was the last straw for my anger to rebel.
— What the fuck is it now?! — I started to scream.
Being in the center of the whole party left my ears asking for help, even though the sound that happened was very pleasant, it was difficult to maintain a dialogue.
— Where is Taehyung?! — Jin yelled, but the frantically flashing lights didn't let me see his reactions.
How can he have the audacity to ask about Taehyung? My friend is so different since the day Jin was a son of a bitch to him!
— Why do you want to know?! Jungkook not enough?! — I push him, I know that my body is overgrown because of the drinking and dancing, but I didn't think I would push him and consequently, Jin was also stunned by my aggressive attitude. — Don't start with this, not again!
— Leave me alone, Jin!
Before I freed myself from him and went among the people, Jin pulled me back keeping me crushed in his arms.
— Jimin, you're not okay! — I start to struggle, I hit his chest trying to push him away, what the fuck he's doing?! — Let me go! You who are not well, why don't you fucking let me out?!
Namjoon then pulls me from behind and after seeing him, Jin decides to let go of me, both of them looked terrified. My face is full of sweat, I don't know why I'm sweating so much. Screaming Namjoon asks, — What are you guys doing?! Everyone's looking!
In Namjoon's arms I felt comfortable, but despite being released from Jin's arms my anger was still at its peak.
— You're an idiot! What right do you have to do what you do?! — I kept screaming, I don't care if I'm screwing my friend.
Jin now that he's dating didn't let me have a direct conversation with him on any occasion, if it has to be at that moment, so let's have this conversation in front of everyone.
— Jimin, please, relax a little you drank too much... Maybe they even put some drug in your cup? — Namjoon warned me whispering in my ear while squeezing my waist.
Half the runway emptied on hearing my screams, as soon as I see it happening again, I remember the day I crashed in the parade. I got into a fight with Jackson and people started walking away just like they do now. But Jin was there to defend me, with the same face as now, he didn't leave me alone at any time, keeping me in control even though I was the most angry I could ever feel.
— I don't feel well... — I whisper to myself.
I fall to the floor and start to cry, I feel Namjoon's arms trying to keep me upright. My hands were over my face, I couldn't stop crying. It sucks what booze can make you feel.
— Jimin, don't cry. I'll take you home, please, I'm not mad at you... Come on... — Jin crouches down in front of me and tries to take my hands off my face, he wipes my tears and then I hug him apologizing over and over again. — Don't leave me alone... Please.
My conscience was killing me, I knew what I was talking about, I couldn't be firm all the time. Baekhyun appeared as Jin lifted me off the ground and repeated that I needed to calm down.
— Hey man, you'll be fine. It's just the drink, you're not used to it. — Trying to cheer me up, he ruffles my hair.
Even you, Baekhyun?
My eyes were full of tears, which made my vision of things worse. I was carried out, even though I could walk. I left with my hand on my face, without facing anyone, Namjoon didn't come with us, unfortunately Jungkook was next to me with a bottle of water, I knew this little concern was just to please Jin. Even the idiot supporting me as I walk, he irritates me.
— You can leave me now. — Pushing his arm, I step away.
Gradually I sit on the sidewalk at the entrance, there were others peoples feeling sick outside. The dawn was just beginning and some could not stand it. Like me.
— Have some water, Jin went to buy you something to eat, you can't drink that much alcohol on an empty stomach. — Jungkook crouches down in front of me handing me the water bottle, as much as I wanted to refuse, I was afraid of alcohol wanting to go outside. I take the bottle and with my head down I start drinking. — Where is your friend? I don't think you would be in this situation if he were here.
This kid wanting to ask about my friend wasn't a good idea.
— Why the fuck are you still here? — I lift my head, interrupting him, to be able to demonstrate even more how much his presence causes me disgust. — Why are you here? Isn't it enough to take someone else's man? Go take care of your girlfriend, stop asking about my friend. You don't have to pretend to be worried about me just to please Jin. Go back to your fairytale world... If your stupid ass wasn't here, my friend would be, asshole.
I never thought I would say so many bad things to someone, I found that drinking, yes, leaves you speechless.
Jungkook nibbled his lip and stood closer to me with his arms crossed without answering a word. All this outrageous boy talk seemed like a lie, if someone faced him he would be completely withdrawn.
My butt was hurting from sitting on the sidewalk, even with my legs stretched out, I couldn't get up, things were spinning without any movement of mine. The cold I was doing didn't penetrate my skin, Jungkook was all packed up and I was just sitting there waiting for my vision to return to normal. It's not the first time I've felt this bad.
I didn't notice when Jin arrives, I only understand what was happening because Jungkook goes to him and whispers something in his ear before returning inside the Blackout.
With a pizza in hand, Jin settles down next to me and opens the package. When I see he's chosen my favorite flavor, I can't hold back a smile. It's been a while since I ate pizza because of the regime, this smart kid did it on purpose.
— Here, eat it all please... — Without waiting for me, Jin was already putting the piece in my mouth little by little.
He was aware that if it was up to me, o would miss the right place to eat.
With my mouth full, I tried to speak: — Now I understand when you say you're not seeing straight...
We both started to smile, I lay down on his chest, ate a couple of slices of pizza, nothing else would pass through my stomach.
— Wait a minute... It will have a very bad effect, but it's for your own good. — Jin warns me, putting his hand on my shoulders, I keep wondering why until I feel my stomach turn, denying everything I ate.
{ time break }
My eyes are slowly closing and opening, the lights outside don't look the same, I see everything blurry.
— Do you want to vomit again? — I hear Jin's voice asking me as he drives, his soft tone seems distant. — I didn't do it... Shit...
Frustrated, I massaged my face, my makeup was gone, my hair was still a little wet. I could only hear Jin smiling in the background.
— Relax, you just wiped your face. I didn't give you a full bath. — I looked at him with disgust, Jin couldn't make fun of me like that. — I deleted?!
— You just woke up now, so yes. Almost threw up on me! — He replied, glancing at me.
Denying it, I give a small smile, thank God I didn't throw up on him. I made sure to check if Jin was wearing the same outfit since when I saw him, I breathed a sigh of relief to confirm that he was still wearing it.
After a while, I muttered to him, — Thanks for taking care of me.
Even after making you feel ashamed.
I lay my head on the bench and close my eyes, Jin doesn't answer me, which made me turn my head to the side just to look at him.
— You reminded me of the day I met you, Jimin. It's fun to know that this time I'm the friend who took care of you.
I pinched my eyebrows, does he still remember that? SeokJin was the crazy person who threw the party I gave a lot of trouble to. After a few days, after the scandal, he came to talk to me in his playful way, having fun. And since then, we never stopped talking.
— I remember everything... In breaks. — Smile.
— You want to know something? — Jin asks me, with that look like when he's going to try to embarrass me. — What?
I watch him for a few moments seems to hesitate to speak.
— I wanted to catch you back then. So I went back to see how you were. I was going to do this at that party, but you were so pissed off with your drinking, I didn't even have time to try anything. — Jin comments as more of a natural thing in his life.
Oh my God, I burst out laughing and put my hand over my face, my head started to ache.
— You're such a son of a bitch... I can't believe I'm listening to this! — Jin started laughing with me, even if his is the nervous smile. — How can you say such a thing to me now?!
With this discovery, I was able to lift a little just to question him better.
— I remembered that day today, that's all!
The clown didn't feel ashamed to face me to tell one of these, however, it's good to realize that we're still in the same sync as before.
— Do you still want to get me? Because then I'll know how to keep myself away. — I ask trying to turn him red. — I'm fine now, but if it doesn't work out with who I want now, I guess I'll have to appeal to you.
How does he manage to turn me red when I'm the one attacking? I start to laugh. Despite the joke, soon my sadness from before came to the surface.
— Who you want now is not Tae, right? I can't accept that you're letting him go to be with someone committed. — I end our banter to talk about something that is pissing me off.
Spilling it, I felt total pain for my friend. Even though the Prince left me alone, and feeling ashamed, Taehyung is just having trouble.
— I think about it... And a lot. You will not understand me, no one will understand me. — Jin responds as if he doesn't want my opinion.
— You can speak Jin. We always talk about this idiocy... Look at me... I fell in love with Namjoon and today he didn't even bother to help me. — Jin shakes his head not at all happy with what I just said. — Namjoon kept cleaning your image there... Don't think he didn't want to take care of you. Jungkook said that he and Baekhyun came up with a good one to get you out of trouble.
I didn't think that way, I'm still sick, you can blame the drink.
— Let's talk about Tae! — I return to the important subject. — Talk what? — He questions me. — Fuck, what did you mean by thinking about that shit? Do you think about him?
Jin parks at the door of my building, turning to my side, seems to be very focused on our subject.. Maybe I was too obvious with my frustration today and he feels obligated to explain.
— Jimin, no matter what people say to me, I don't know how to choose. You've known me for a long time and you know that no matter the situation, I know what I'm doing with my life. — It was a very harsh statement, Jin doesn't seem to want to take action.
I rolled my eyes and stopped, diverting my attention from him.
— You have to get out of this, Jungkook is dating, he won't leave her to come out as gay... You know how important image is to him... You're losing Tae... You'll regret it. — As a friend, I must throw the truth in his face. — Of course you will say that, because you don't know Jungkook like I do. You, especially you, know I liked him before, Jimin...
Jin pauses, looking away, gesturing with his hands, I'm glad for the sudden silence, better than telling me shit.
— Having sex with Tae? I know that Jin... You don't tell because you want to forget what you did! — I complain.
Despite my warning, the bastard seemed surprised to find that I know.
— No, wait... Do you know?! — He starts to laugh. — I was going to tell you.
— Oh, really wasn't!
— Yes, yes I was...
I ignore him.
— I remember what happened between Tae and me, at no time I want to pretend that I forgot. Unfortunately, he took this event more seriously than I did, and now we're in this awful situation... You know I'm horrible at relationships. — For the first time he broached the subject properly. Not feigning indecision, not wanting to run away.
Jin is so indecisive it can be seen in the way his demeanor changes from a guy who never took anything seriously, to someone who measured the words coming out of his mouth. Does he really want something that serious with Jungkook?
— And when I meet Taehyung, it's like I can't come close... Because I'd hurt him more than I already did. — He adds.
— Starting a relationship with Jungkook is not being that difficult, right? You don't think about him? Just want him?
A car starts honking for Jin to pull the car out of the driveway, he starts the car quickly, he must be thanking God for interrupting our conversation.
— Do you want me to drop you off at the apartment? — I didn't want to leave him alone, but I don't want to take him upstairs by forcing him and Tae to meet. — I'll be fine, you can go in peace.
The tight hug before getting out of the car and running fast, begging Grigori to open the gate, was freezing outside.
I can't wait for the elevator and I go up the stairs, opening the door and face Taehyung ready to leave.
— I was coming after you! Why didn't you answer me?! — Seeing him so worried took my anger out of being abandoned. — I need a shower...
Following me wherever I went, Taehyung didn't hold back and made a comment I didn't want to hear:
— Namjoon told me everything... I shouldn't have left you alone. — I throw my stuff on him, I don't want to talk about anything that happened tonight. — Will save it. You know if you were there, you wouldn't change a thing.
When I was ready to sleep, Taehyung knocks on the door three times and opens it, then he looks at me from the corner, looking fearful.
— I need to show you something, it can't wait. — I open my eyes denying the light from outside, it gets even worse when I have to turn on my lamp. — Show it soon and go to sleep, please.
Strange when I see him come in and look through my things, suddenly a packed box appears from inside my closet. I sit on the bed while Tae settles into my desk chair.
— What is it? — I ask curiously. — Hudson left this for me two days ago... from... you know! I'm really scared, Jimin, I don't know what's inside and I didn't have the courage to open it myself.
I agree several times, I didn't even need to say it, his manner said it all. And most of all, the fact that pesky Hudson sent him something before he died is pretty scary.
— Okay, okay... Just open it! — Impatient, I want to find out what's inside the package.
Taehyung takes my scissors and starts cutting the package. Then we discover it's a small chest, Taehyung pulls out a paper and starts reading it while I get up to take a closer look at the chest.
"Here is the key to the Seoul vault. Get the information to open it at the country's main bank, in the name of James Hudson!"
— That's not his name. — Taehyung looks at me very scared. — I know! See if there's anything else!
I nod to the chest on the desk, then Taehyung drops the small note and starts paying attention to the chest.
— There's nothing else... Just this key. — Taehyung turns the key over, reading what is possibly italicized on it. — It has James Hudson and a password engraved behind it. — Jimin we have to deliver this to the Police! This is already very weird!
Taehyung's nervousness started to take my patience, we shouldn't react that emotional.
— If he did all this in secret, it's because he doesn't want the police to catch this shit. We have to find out what's in that safe.
I start biting my finger thinking of a way to get everything in the safe without the cameras recording. As crazy as it is, there must be something in this bank that is linked to us.
— We need to find someone to go there in our place. — Taehyung listens to me and also starts to think. — I know of a person who will be able to go there without suspecting a thing.
— Okay.
— But after we've got what's in there, we'll turn it over to the police. I don't want to get involved in this.
— We won't get involved, I promise.
I had to tell Jin this. Maybe he has a better way to solve this problem.
— And Jimin, I'm going to sleep with you tonight.
