Jimin laid on his bed
He was worn out due to all his crying..
another fight
He was new in the city and had just gotten a small apartment so he could live with his boyfriend.
They had been dating for 6 months and they lived pretty far apart, so he took a step forward and moved out of his parent's house, using all the money he had earned.
It was his first time working, and getting a "decent" job with no experience was just not possible.
Mom and dad weren't rich, but had always given him all they could.
He wasn't a spoiled kid though, he really wanted to help.
He had never had luck with relationships either.
He had been through it all..
And this man wasn't any different.
Jimin wasn't your common guy.
He liked games, and drawing, and anime, and listening to foreign music..
He could be childish and sweet, although he did have a really short temper that he was trying to control
He was cute, but wasn't interested in fancy clothes or too much make up.
He was simple, and easy to please..
and that bothered his current boyfriend
According to him, the person by his side should always look his best so he could presume of it.. he even preferred when they showed a little skin
And to be honest, Jimin was fed up with him. But he was alone, only one friend, and he really wanted to make things work.
That was until he received a text
Babe:
i'm not coming home tonight
His parent's house was closer to his job.. that was his excuse..
Jimin was burning with rage, he felt stupid and used.
He knew he was lying, it wouldn't be the first time either.
He grabbed his phone and googled the name of some dating site.
He wasn't interested in falling in love with anyone there, but thought he might find someone to talk to
He created his profile and started receiving messages almost immediately
They were.. gross
"This was probably a bad idea"
He was about to delete his account for good when a profile picture caught his attention
It was a guy standing in front of a mirror.. no shirt on
"That kind of picture only means one thing"
Yeah, still probably not a good idea
But, for some reason, something made him message him
ChristianChimChim:
hey :)
No response..
well, maybe it was better this way. He started questioning his actions and thought he wasn't doing any good by talking to a stranger when he had a boyfriend
AlienJack4D:
hey
Okay, he replied.
"Let's just play along for a bit"
ChristianChimChim:
you look cute ☺️
AlienJack4D:
thank you, you look adorable on your profile picture btw
ChristianChimChim:
isn't yours kind of a bold move though?
I mean, the no shirt thing
AlienJack4D:
haha maybe
thruth is, I was just about to delete this account, and then received your message
ChristianChimChim:
why?
AlienJack4D:
I never use it
I just got it out of curiosity
ChristianChimChim:
same here :)
so, couple seconds later I would've missed you.
funny..
AlienJack4D:
so you're not looking for someone?
ChristianChimChim:
I actually have a boyfriend..
but, things aren't well and, I just wanted someone to talk to, sorry
AlienJack4D:
that's okay
you can talk to me :)
what are you doing?
Jimin was still aware he was talking to a complete stranger, but actually having a conversation with someone that didn't include screaming felt comfortable
ChristianChimChim:
not much, just laying in bed
and you?
AlienJack4D:
i'm actually about to catch a plane
i'm going to visit my family for a couple days
ChristianChimChim:
that sounds nice 🙂
is it that far from here?
AlienJack4D:
yeah, a little
they actually just messaged me saying it's snowing pretty bad so everything might be a bit delayed once I get there
ChristianChimChim:
omg! you're so lucky!
I have never seen snow!😱
it must be beautiful!!
AlienJack4D:
really?
I'll show you 🙂
I'll send you a picture when I arrive..
Name's Tae, btw, Taehyung
ChristianChimChim:
I'm Jimin
and really?! you'd do that?! 😱
omg you're so awesome!!
AlienJack4D:
haha it's just snow 😊
send me your phone #
ChristianChimChim:
hm.. how do I know you're not a serial killer?
🤔
AlienJack4D:
you don't 😐
ChristianChimChim:
well okay, but i'm sending my friend all your profile info just in case 👀
AlienJack4D:
😂okay okay
send it to me, I gotta get on the plane
but it was nice meeting you 🙂
ChristianChimChim:
have a safe flight!
Jimin was still laying on his bed, holding his phone
But his face showed no trace of tears anymore
"It was nice talking to him. Although he probably already forgot about me, that's how those things work.."
He got into the shower and started singing along to his playlist.
It was late, and he had to work the next day, but he felt good..
His mood had improved severely
Couple hours later he was still awake, having something to eat as he watched some tv show
when his phone chimed
You have 1 unread message:
Unknown:
hope you like it
it's everywhere😩
"I can't believe he remembered!" he jumped out of the bed
Jimin:
that is so beautiful!!💜
thank you so much!!
Taehyung:
anytime 🙂
Jimin:
I hope you have a great time over there
Taehyung:
thanks
i'll be back in a couple days
you can text me if you want
Jimin:
thank you, for being so nice to me
Taehyung:
🙂
night night
Jimin didn't cry himself to sleep that night..
somehow, even thought Taehyung was a complete stranger, he didn't feel alone anymore
