The hug tackle sent the rest flying up, rushing over to the two piled on top of me. Taehyung immediately tried to pry them off me.
"Chill" Taehyung says. They realized what they did and quickly got off me. I sit up but I'm quickly pulled back into a hug. I hug them back.
"I can't believe you! You left us!" Jimin starts shouting at me, quickly pulling away from the hug.
"Dude, let it go" Hoseok says.
"But she left us!" Jimin says angrily.
"You left me!" He screams angrily with a few rebellious tears falling from his face.
"I am so sorry" I say feeling like absolute trash.
"That wasn't the case" Taehyung quickly jumps in to defend me.
"What then!" Jimin screams.
"Hey, I've got neighbors. Settle down" Jin says as puts a hand on Jimin's shoulder but he yanks it off.
"I need air" Jimin says as he grabs his jacket on the couch and leaves.
"It's great to see you again" Hoseok says with a bright smile, ignoring the whole incident. A few rebellious tears flows down my face. I have a staring contest with the floor.
"I am so sorry. I should've done more" I mutter, more to myself. I'm quickly enveloped into a hug, someone rubbing my back.
"It's not your fault" I hear Taehyung's voice. He must be the one rubbing my back.
"But it is. I should've tried harder. I should've gone back to the University. I should've done something more" I say, feeling like the lowest thing on the planet.
"I don't deserve your kindness" I quickly add on before they got the chance to say anything.
"I think I should leave" I say, trying to break free from Hoseok's hug but he's not budging. I feel weak. I don't have the strength to push him away.
"No. I think you should stay. He's just being like that because we absolutely missed you. There wasn't a day that went by that you weren't on our minds" Hoseok says with a soft smile as he looks me in the face.
"We searched all over the internet for you since your phone number wasn't working every time we called or texted" he says further with a soft smile.
Hoseok always knew what I wanted to hear.
"I think you should talk with Jimin" Hoseok says comfortingly.
"Once he calmed down" he quickly adds on. I start to smile.
We gather round the living room again. Jin hands me tea.
"What about me?" Hoseok says with a pout.
"Get up yourself" Jin snaps as he sits down. He's not going to get up anytime soon.
I set down the tea.
"I really should talk with Jimin" I say as I stand up with new found determination.
"He should be approachable now" Jungkook says and the rest nods.
"I'll bring him back" I say as I leave.
"He has the keys or just text me" Jin says, referring to his many security measures. I can imagine crazy fans wanting to break in.
I find Jimin sitting on the stairs of the building. He has his stuff on again as he looks at nothing. I sit down next to him.
"It's been quite some time, huh?" I start off.
"...Yeah" he says through his mask.
"I saw you dancing...on Saturday. You still have the same fire, the same passion. It was nice to see that some things never change" I say with a fond smile. His head lands on my shoulder.
"Sorry I got mad at you" he mumbles out.
"I was crushed when I couldn't reach you anymore" I say as I lean my head to his.
"I would be mad too" I add on.
"...I missed you" he says.
"I missed your smile. I missed your laugh. I missed your liveliness. I missed your innocence. I missed you" he says.
"I couldn't understand why I felt like I was missing something, missing a part of me. You've given me a brand new emotion, to truly miss someone. It felt terrible and I was angry at you for it. For some reason, even after all theses years, I couldn't get over it" he says with a slight crack in his voice.
"I always felt like I was missing something. You..." he concludes. I put my arm around his waist as I pull him in, giving him a side hug.
"...I'm glad you made a few more special people in your life. I always wondered if you were happy, if you found someone special to you. I was just hoping you were happy. I'm truly sorry for doing that to you" I say and I spot an ice-cream stand.
"Ice-cream?" I ask and I hear him chuckle a little as he nods.
"Yeah."
I hold his hand on our way to the ice-cream stand.
"One chocolate and one strawberry please" I say once we get there, never letting go of his hand.
I provide Jimin with his strawberry ice-cream.
"Even after all these years, you still remember" he says while eating his ice-cream.
"I can't easily forget the important things" I simply say as I eat my own.
"It's not that important" he says.
"Of course it is. You are a special person to me" I simply say.
"I still remember you love Game of Thrones even though I don't know what the hell is going on" I say and he laughs a little.
"I still remember that you can't see when you smile" I tease a little, with a small nudge.
"I still remember that you drink your coffee with a lot of milk and no sugar because you're sweet enough" I say.
"Now that's just creepy" Jimin teases. I give him a side smirk.
"I can't forget even if I tried because you always said it every time I made you coffee" I say.
"And besides, you forget that my memory's absolutely amazing" I joke with a hair flip. He laughs at me a little.
"Yeah right. You couldn't even remember your own schedule" he says with a slight laugh.
"You always asked us what your next class was and where it was" he says with a slight laugh.
"I'm surprised I made it out here in the city" I say sheepishly.
"You just need to keep a notebook on you at all times or even your phone" he says with a slight laugh.
"Thanks for that" I pretend to sulk.
"Let's head back" I say once we finish our ice-cream.
"I guess so" Jimin says with a long sigh.
"Do we have to though?" He whines.
"Yeah. I'll feel bad if I leave them hanging like that" I say.
"Alright. Let's go then" he says as we travel back to Jin's home. Sure enough, Jimin did have the keys for the security.
"Guess who's back" I sing.
"Back again" Taehyung carries on singing.
"Enough" Yoongi grumbles out before we break out into song.
"You two good now?" Jin asks, eyeing Jimin more.
"Yeah" he says sheepishly as he takes off his disguise.
"Good. Why don't we play some games?" Jin asks, clasping his hands together.
"Yes! I will destroy all of you!" Jungkook already starts to get fired up.
"What kind of games?" Namjoon asks, intrigued. Yoongi couldn't care less but had an ear open.
"Is this the reason why you invited us over?" I ask.
"Yip. No other reason" Jin says with a shining smile. The group eyes each other as if having a silent conversation.
"Jimin. Help me out since you're already standing" Jin says, walking towards us.
"No way" he says as he clings to my arm.
"I'll help" I say and Jin smiles.
"Thank you. So kind unlike some people" he says, throwing shade at Jimin.
"Ugh-fine. I'll help" Jimin says quickly.
"No no. Sit down. You've had a rough day" Jin pat Jimin's shoulder and he leaves. I follow after him.
"I was thinking, do you have any history with them?" Jin asks as we walk down the many halls.
"Of course. As I explained before, I know Jungkook from High-" I explain again, getting tired of the same explanation but he interrupts me.
"No-I mean like dating" he says seriously. I burst out laughing.
"N-no" I say between my laughs. Jin was smiling for some reason. Maybe because my laugh is oh-so-contagious.
"Man. That's funny" I say as I hold on to Jin's shoulder to keep myself steady.
"Is it really that unbelievable?" Jin asks with a tilt of his head.
"For sure, once I thought I had a crush but I'm pretty sure it was just dehydration or sunstroke or something. Besides, they are way out of my league. Rather stay in my lane IF I'm going to start dating" I say.
"Then what about my lane?" Jin asks as he slows down walking.
"What about your lane?" I ask.
"Does it cross with yours?" He asks, stopping, turning to me.
"I mean-I'm here now. That has to mean something" I say with a shrug. I stay silent while he did. I have no idea where I'm going so he needs to lead me but he ain't budging.
"I really have to spell everything out for you-I mean romantically" he tries again.
"I wouldn't do that to you" I say seriously. I can't imagine myself dating someone and actually making them happy. That concept seems so out of reach.
"Why not?" He asks with a crooked smile.
"I can't make you happy. You should find someone that makes you really happy" I say.
"What if I said that you make me really happy?" He asks seriously. I search his eyes to see if what he said really was the truth.
"Then I'm glad I make you happy" I say with a smile.
"Extremely" he says as he steps closer.
"I hope you find someone as amazing as you are" I say with a smile. I feel a little pang in my heart when I said that. I quickly shake the feeling away.
"...Jeez...You are so difficult" he sighs out as he looks to the floor.
Then we continue our journey to Jin's games.
"Can I ask you something?" He asks.
"Just ask. You really don't need my permission to ask a question" I say. He nods.
"Are you possibly asexual?" Jin asks. This was a new concept to me. I knew what it meant to be asexual but I never thought of myself as that.
"I-...I don't know" I say, changing my mind half way. I don't want to lie to him and especially not to myself. I couldn't say with full confidence that I wasn't.
"I don't think so but I'm not sure" I try to explain myself.
"Do you want to test it?" He asks as he opens a door and a bunch of games were neatly stacked. All I could do was admire the many games, games I've never heard of or seen before.
Then I get back to Jin's question with another question.
"How do I test it?" I ask.
"I can help you" he says with a huge grin.
