[Next morning]
Jimin hesitantly opens the door to the bathroom, holding a pan in his hand and looking in and at the man who surprisingly stayed asleep for the whole night. Jimin steps in a bit but then the man suddenly sits up and makes eye contact with Jimin who runs out the bathroom, closing the door behind him. "Hey!" The man yells and gets up from the tub, stumbling to the door he opens it and then is met with Jimin who lifts the pan up to hit him.So the man goes to pull out his gun but realized his pockets were empty. "Where my gu-" he gets cut off as Jimin slams the pan right across his face. He stumbles into the wall of the hallway before falling down and Jimin gulps as he looks down at him. Did he just knock him out again?
Jimin hesitantly crouched down next to him to see but he starts to wake up and Jimin freaks out so he slams the pan on top of his head, "Ow! Goddamn!" The man says and pushes Jimin back. Jimin hits the wall and he quickly brings the pan over himself as he curled into a ball, and the man got up and rubbed his head. "What's your problem!?" He says in pain and Jimin just keeps the pan over himself for protection, not knowing what could happen and being scared to die.
"Yah! Answer me," he says and grabs the pan out of Jimin's hands. Jimin tries to get it back but the man lifts it as if he was gonna hit Jimin so he brings his arms over his head. A sigh leaves the man and he looks at Jimin, finding him so odd and just wanting to kill him already and move on. "Where did you put my stuff?" he asks and Jimin hesitantly looks up at him from his arms, staying quiet. The man waits for an answer, crossing his arms too and glaring at Jimin. But Jimin knew this would lead to his death so he shakes his head.
The man sighs and crouched down in front of Jimin, pushing his arms aside and grabbing his face, "talk," he simply says and Jimin gulps as he looked right back into his eyes. The man looks at Jimin's face, and since it was brighter in the apartment he could see his face better. He can't lie, Jimin was a very beautiful for a boy and the man was a bit taken back. But at the same time he wondered why Jimin wasn't talking. "Why aren't you talking? Cant you talk!?" He says annoyed and Jimin shakes his head quickly.
"Then, how can you tell me where my stuff is?" He wonders but Jimin shakes his head again. "So you don't want to tell me?" He wonders and Jimin nods. The man scoffs and lets go of Jimin's face before standing up. Jimin also stands up and the man looks down at him. "How about we make a deal," he says and Jimin was a bit unsure but still nods. "If you give me my things, and also let me hide out here, I won't kill you," the man says and Jimin's eyes widened a bit. He then lifts up his finger to tell the man to wait a minute before walking to the living room. The man follows a bit then watched as Jimin took out a notebook and pen, flipping through pages before writing in it.
Jimin then walks back to him and hands him the notebook and pen. So the man grabs it and looks at what Jimin wrote. "I can give you your things but you'll have to leave without killing me, I can't afford another person living here," it says and the man sighs. "Well it's either me living here with my things back or death," he says and hands the notebook back to Jimin who pouts a bit. He then writes in the notebook and hands it's back. "How can I trust you? And how can you know you can trust me?" It read and the man glares at Jimin unsure now.
"You don't talk, so how can you betray me? And I also stick to my deals, I won't kill you," He explains and hands Jimin back the notebook. Jimin looks at him before looking down at the notebook and thinks. Should he risk it? If the man gets caught then he will most likely also face charges unless he's considered a hostage. Also, what bad can come from dying? He is suffering a lot financially and mentally so there's no point in living anymore anyways.
Jimin writes in the notebook and then hands it back to the man. "Fine, you can stay. Tell me your name," the man smiles glad and looks at Jimin, "get me my things first, then I'll tell you my name," he says and Jimin rolls his eyes before walking to his room. The man was a bit taken back by the eye roll but he lets it pass and follows Jimin. Jimin kneels down next to his bed and lifts the dingy mattress before pulling out the mans things.
"That's a good hiding spot," he says and Jimin just hands them to him, keeping the money just in case. "Thanks, and I'm Namjoon, what's your name?" Namjoon says while putting his things in his pockets and Jimin shakes his head. "You don't want to tell me your name?" Namjoon asks and Jimin shakes his head. "Fine, then I'll call you pretty boy?" Namjoon says making Jimin blush a bit as he shakes his head. "Whatever, I'll call you whatever," Namjoon says and then looks around. "So is this gonna be my bed?" He then wonders while pointing at Jimin's bed.
Jimin shakes his head and then walks out the room, so Namjoon follows, "where's my bed then?" He wonders as he follows and once in the living room Jimin points at the couch. Namjoon looks at Jimin unimpressed and Jimin shrugs. "Can't we sleep in the same bed?" Namjoon asks and Jimin shakes his head as he makes a face. "Fine then," Namjoon says and sits down on the couch.
"Hey, how old are you?" Namjoon then asks and hands Jimin the notebook. Jimin grabs it then sits down at the other end of the couch before writing his age and showing to Namjoon. "20?" Namjoon wonders and Jimin nods. Jimin then points at Namjoon, "I'm old, that's all you need to know," he says and Jimin rolls his eyes.
"Do you have a job?" Namjoon then asks and Jimin nods. "Where do you work?" He asks and smiles at Jimin who shakes his head. "Fine, don't tell me," he says and looks away. Jimin rolls his eyes and also looks away. For the rest of the day it was just them asking questions and Jimin being on edge because he still didn't really trust Namjoon, as anyone would really.
[night time]
Jimin brushes his teeth while looking down at his hand that's still wrapped in a bandage. He could've went to the hospital today but he has work at the diner tomorrow so he can go after his shift and hopefully it won't take too long. He spits out the toothpaste and then wipes his mouth before walking out to go to his room. As he walked in tho, Namjoon was laid on his bed. Jimin crosses his arms and looks at Namjoon who pretends to not see him.Of course Jimin knows what will happen if he goes and lays down next to Namjoon, and he's been through that too many times so he simply leaves the room and goes to the couch. He sits down and then reaches out for the pan that was on the coffee table. However Namjoon came walking over, "you aren't gonna sleep in bed with me?" He wonders and Jimin shakes his head while lying down. "Why not?" Namjoon wonders but Jimin ignores him.
Namjoon walks over to go pick Jimin up because he really wants to at least hear something out of Jimin and maybe fucking will do the job. But Jimin was quick to sit up and lift the pan up to hit him, "don't hit me," he says but Jimin stands up on the couch before swinging the pan and hitting Namjoon as hard as he could which wasn't all that hard with his scronny arms. Namjoon still stumbles aside before falling over, since a pan is still metal and hard. Jimin takes a deep breath in and gets off the couch before going to his bedroom, closing and locking the door just in case.
