The Epiphany // (Jungkook x Reader)✅

"Don't worry"

Jungkook's POV

"Peaches-", and the call got disconnected.

Sadness filled up around me, but then a wave of relief came over as I realized that she was not going to leave me.

"Was that y/n?", Jimin's voice filled the silent room. I looked up to see him leaning by the door of my room.

"Yes. She finally talked to me.", I jumped out of bed and hugged Jimin, who was now standing near my bed.

"I am glad you guys talked it out. Is everything fine now?", Jimin asked with his voice full of concern.

And I told him the entire conversation I had with y/n.

"Kook, I know you love her, and I know she loves you too. But I think that you should give her some time to sort her emotions out. It must have been tough for her to read the hate comments for her and then getting to know about the death threats."

"Yeah, but-"

"I know you meant well, but just for once, think about how difficult and new all this is for her. As a normal person leading a normal life, it must have been overwhelming and hard to process. I can relate with her. And despite being in this industry for so long, I have seen you struggle with being under the magnifying glass all the time. So, just let her take the time she needs.", Jimin put his hand on my shoulder to comfort me.

"You are right. You BOTH are right. I will wait for her to reach out. I'll wait for her. But Chim, I just want to know where she is? I am really worried-"

"Leave it to me.", Jimin interrupted, "I will try to find out and let you know. Don't worry."

Meanwhile, Jin also joined us and I told him about my conversation with y/n. He was also glad that we had a word.

Jimin's POV

It was hard seeing Jungkook's puffy eyes because of all the crying. I hate to see him suffer.
Going down in the elevator, the wheels of my mind start turning.

Where could y/n be?

Jungkook said she is not at home and not at her dad's. She is far away? But what does that even mean?

Who could I ask about her? It's not like she has a big circle of friends, as far as I am aware.

NAMJOON!!!

A bell dinged in my brain. Namjoon would know. He is close to her.

I looked for his number on my phone and thanks to Y/N's housewarming party, I had Namjoon's contact number.

As I walked towards my car, and opened the door to sit in, I dialled his number. But all my happiness went down the drain when his phone was switched off.

I dropped him a text and decided to call him back later.

Author's POV

Feeling a little motion sick, Namjoon decided to switch seats with the woman sitting next to you.
You let him rest and didn't disturb him. After a while, you tapped on his forearm and asked if he was feeling any better, and he simply nodded with his head thrown back and eyes closed.

A few hours passed, and Namjoon woke up, feeling much better than before. He felt something, and turned to look at you. And there you were, completely passed out on his shoulder, with a few strands of hair falling on your face.
He smiled at the view. Your face was calm and he was glad to see it, as all he has seen past two days was a gloomy you.
Somehow, resisting the urge to brush away those strands from your face, he went back to closing his eyes and just staying still, so as to not wake you up.

Just before landing, you woke up and realized where your head was. Straightening up, you woke Namjoon as well.

"Joon, we are almost there.", You nudged him lightly. He squirmed in his seat. "You feeling good?", You worriedly asked.

"Much better.", He smiled at you.

After checking out, you all left for the hotel. Namjoon switched on his phone and saw multiple messages and missed calls from Jimin.

"That's weird. Why is Jimin calling me out of the blue?", Namjoon thought to himself.

Reaching back to his hotel room, which was right next to yours, Namjoon called Jimin.

"Hey, Namjoon. What's up?", Jimin picked up the call pretty quickly.

"Hi Jimin. Is everything fine? I saw your messages and calls.", Namjoon came straight to the point.

"Umm.. yeah.. by any chance do you know where y/n is?", Jimin timidly asked.

"Yes, she is with me."

"Are you guys at your place?", Jimin tried to get a deeper insight.

"No..We are out somewhere for a convention. Why do you ask?", Namjoon was confused.

"Nothing really. I was trying to reach her but couldn't, so I thought I will check with you.", Jimin quickly covered up.

"Ok then. I think you will be able to get through to her now.", Namjoon said, assuming that she was not reachable due to the flight.

"Yeah.. where exactly is this convention, you say?"

"Jimin, is something up?"

"No. I am just asking because there is a reason, but I can't quite tell you.", Jimin was out of excuses at this point.

"Umm.. Ok.. Uh..We are in USA.", Namjoon said in a confused tone. He was not sure what was going on.

"Ok thanks. Good talk, man. See you in office." And Jimin disconnected the call.

Ok, that was an awkward conversation. Pheww!! Glad it's over.
