Jimin's so interesting.

I can see why Jungkook talks about him so much. He's cute and his bland exterior is actually really endearing once you really start talking to him. I lead us to a book store near by. It has cats and a little cafe inside which doesn't fit his vibe but that's the whole point. I'm hoping maybe it will brighten his mood a bit.

He just seems very... lonely and sad.

"You know.... I have heard you talk before..." I trail off. I don't want to push him but I feel like he has no reason not to talk to me. I wouldn't judge him at all. He shakes his head and frowns.

"I would never say anything about it. Jimin if you want to talk to me you can. At any time and I promise I will never make fun of you. You're too sweet to make fun of." I send him a sincere smile and for a quick second I see the ends of his lips curve upwards.

He looks so much softer even with just a small smile. Jimin gives me a small nod before I focus back to where we're walking.

"I hope you like cats." I say as I open the door for him to enter. The shop is small and practically empty. No one but the adorable cats roaming the shelves, the workers, and one other woman.smiled. He actually smiles when one of the cats comes up to him. The calico cat rubs up against the fabric of his oversized pants and purrs.

"He likes you." I tell him and the smile never leaves his face. He looks so content right now. I've never seen him really smile like this or at all until today.

He bends down and strokes the cats fur a couple times before picking him up. Just as happy as ever.

"So Jimin this is my place. I hang out here when I'm feeling down. It's relaxing." He nods looking around at all the books and the tiny coffee shop.

"Are you hungry?" He reaches into his pocket pulling out his wallet and phone.

I walk away to get the coffee and while the woman in front of me orders I can still see Jimin. He is whispering something to the cat in his lap. They sit on the old burgundy velvet couch. I smile even wider when the cat paws at Jimins hand playfully. Seeing Jimin smile so bright is so gratifying.

"Hi sir what can I get for you?" The barista asks.

"Hi! Yes can I get 1 iced americano?" She nods typing something down before looking back up at me.

"Anything else?" She smiles and looking at the food display I see a bagel that actually looked pretty good.

"Can I have 2 bagels too?" She nods again and types that in too.

"That'll be all then." I tell her and hand over my card.

"It's 13.56 is that okay?" I nod and she swipes it before handed it back to me. I look back over at the couch to find that Jimin is still there playing with the cat. But this time someone else is also sitting in the lounge area.

Someone I'm sure Jimin doesn't even notice.

Jungkook.

He is dressed in black with a mask over his mouth and his hood up. His looks alone are sketchy but the way he stares at the black haired boy is sketchier.

Jungkook told me after that incident in the middle of the street that he was completely done. He didn't want to make Jimin suffer anymore. He didn't realized how much the younger was hurting. How much damage he already caused.

Jungkook honestly thought Jimin didn't care too much because he never said anything about it. Never complained not once but now I see why.

He can't.

He literally can't say anything to defend himself.
