"Jimin? Are you in here?", Taehyung asked through the door, carrying a worried tone in his voice.

"No. No please don't come in", Jimin whimpered back.
"Taehyung."
Jimin recognized Jungkook's voice getting louder as if he was coming closer.

"You don't want to see this, Tae", Jungkook said.
"What do you mean? What's going on?"
Taehyung opened the door and paused in his movement.

Jimin was laying on the floor, holding his bloody hand.

"Jimin?", Taehyung asked.
His own eyes got wet.
He kneeled down in front of Jimin and pulled him up from the floor and into a tight hug.

"W-what happened here?"
He looked to the broken pieces of glass on the floor and then to the mirror.
Jimin just grabbed every piece of Taehyung he could get. His sobs were silent and his face was hidden into Taehyung's shoulder.

"I hate myself", Jimin said quietly.
"Don't say that"
"I'm the worst-"
"Shut up! You're beautiful."
Jimin continued crying.
He didn't agree but he still pressed out a little "thank you".

"Can you tell me what happened?"
Jimin shook his head and pressed his eyes shut.

"I can", Jungkook said carefully and Jimin looked up.
"No. You promised."
"You knew about this??", Taehyung then interrupted and looked at Jungkook.
If he wouldn't be holding Jimin right now, he would have jumped up and hit the maknae.

His anger was hard to keep under control.
"Not about this. But I think I know what caused this outbreak."
Taehyung scoffed.
"Do you now?"
"Don't tell him Jungkook. You promised me."

"Either you tell him or I will", Jungkook said.

Jimin shook his head strongly as response.
"Please."
Then the exhaustion pushed him over the edge and he passed out in Taehyung's arms.

After Tae had brought Jimin to a couch in the building, where he could rest, Jungkook constantly following them even though Taehyung had told him not to, he grabbed Taehyung's hand.

"Let go, Jungkook." Tae wanted to shake the younger off and leave but Jungkook stopped him by saying "he skipped meals".

Taehyung paused for a second and turned around again to look at him.
"What?"

"And not only that. If he ate something, he would throw it up afterwards. He has a serious eating disorder."

Taehyung only nodded as if he was still trying to process and went looking for a bandage for Jimin's hand.

"Wait, I'll get you something", Jungkook said, already guessing what Taehyung was looking for.
"You really don't have to", Tae said unsympathetically.
"But I want to."
"I don't care."

Jungkook didn't answer to that and handed the bandage he found, over to Taehyung.

Without thanking him, Tae took it and tried to wrap Jimin's hand in it.
"You have to do that differently."
Taehyung ignored him.
"Tae, you have to do it the other way, it won't work if you do it like this."

"Tae."

"Taehyung goddammit, don't you see that it doesn't work?! Move over", Jungkook said and uppishly the older finally gave in.
