Jin: Yoongi.
SUGA POV
I woke up to the sound of Jin-hyung's voice. It was 1am in the morning. The first of September. I was lying beside him. I saw him and his voice was weak.
Yoongi: Jin-hyung. Are you awake? Does it hurt anywhere?
Jin: I'm okay but please let me lie down.
Yoongi: Ofcourse.
Jin: Where's everyone?
Yoongi: Jimin iss..
I looked around and realized Jimin transferred from the couch across the bed to right beside me and snuggled himself. His hands are still wrapped around me. Jin smiled. Then he softly patted Jimin's hand that was resting on top of me.
Yoongi: The rest are in their rooms. The manager spoke to us individually and asked everyone's point of view. Namjoon and V were grounded in their rooms. The last one they spoke to was JK. Then we were asked to take a break today and tomorrow.
Jin: Where's JK?
Yoongi: Don't mind him. Just take a rest.
Jin: I heard what you told JK in the car.
I looked at Jin and looked away. What about it? It was his fault.
Jin: You should apologize.
Yoongi: What?? Why??
Jin: You shouldn't have said that. It was wrong.
Yoongi: He's the wrong one.
Jin: You're older. You should have just understood where he is coming from.
Yoongi: Everything was his fault. He should have told us everything from the beginning. He should have let us help. He should have asked for support. He shouldn't have run off.
Jin: But he did.
I was quiet. I feel sad that Jin was taking JK's side. I was always on his side. I want to cry. I felt Jimin hold my hand.
Jin stood up and wrapped his right arm around my head and pulled me towards him. I was already crying. It was something that I can only show Jin and Jimin.
Jin: JK is going through a lot. And he needs his hyungs to be with him. If something did happen to me, it could have devastated him. That's all I'm saying. I didn't mean to make it sound that I'm scolding you. I'm sorry.
Jin kissed my forehead. Then hugged me tight. Jimin also stood up. And joined in the hug.
I realized it was the toughest day of our weeks of hardship. Not because someone ran away, two people fought, Jin got hurt and was trending so much. But because we're all coping with it by ourselves. And Jin-hyung brought as all together again. Even though we're separated in our own rooms. He brings us all together all the time. He sat all of us in the couch. Calmed all of us in the meeting. Brought JK back. He was really our oldest brother.
Yoongi: I love you, Hyung.
Jin: I love you too, Yoongi. I love you, Jimin.
Jimin: I love you, Hyung. Thank you.
We hugged for a few more seconds then Jin pulled away.
Jin: You guys should go to your own bed. JK will come here and he needs a space.
Jimin: How do you know he'll come?
Jin: I just know. He will come. I'm sure.
So Jimin and I went to my bed. And Jin was left on his bed. Our room is just divided by our big cabinet full of his collections.
4am. I heard someone opened the door quietly. Jimin was snuggled in my arms and was sleeping. I pretended to sleep. It was JK. JK quiety sneaked to our room and lied on Jin's bed. Then I heard small snobs and kisses.
JIN POV
JK will come here so I must send these two to their own spaces. Whenever each of us feel bad, we would go to the other's bedroom and just stay with them for comfort.
The past few days and weeks, I know that JK has been feeling a lot of pressure. He has a lot of projects and I didn't. So I would come to his room at 3am and check up on him. Sometimes he would be awake.
Jin: JK come on. You need to sleep.
I told him as I pull him towards me. I wrapped my arms around JK and place kisses on his neck as he liked.
JK: No, I need to finish this.
Jin: You've been working on it since last week.
JK: I know. I had a lot of revisions from Namjoon-hyung.
Jin: I'll wake you up at 7 and then you'll finish it after a lot of rest.
JK pouted and looked at his laptop. Then looked at me.
JK: Okay. You're the best.
JK slept wrapped around me every night so he can rest. Yesterday, he shouted at me so I thought he wanted to be by himself. A part of me feels this is all my fault. I should have said sorry or I should have asked how JK feels. I should have helped. But I'm just not good enough to contribute.
4am. I felt someone come to my bed and wrapped their arms around me. It was JK. And he was crying quietly. I turned around to kiss his forehead.
Jin: Sleep now, JK.
JK: Jin-hyung, I'm sorry you got hurt.
Jin: I'll be fine.
I pulled JK's face around me and saw his doe eyes swelling from crying. I kissed him in his forehead, his cheeks, his lips. I just want all the pain to go away. Then I pulled JK to my body and carressed his back. And slept.
JUNGKOOK POV
When I woke up at 2pm in the afternoon, I was alone in Jin-hyung's room. I feel so tired and I just sat there, somehow reflecting on my actions from yesterday. I'm not sure I can face them.
After a few minutes, I gathered myself together and went down. Fortunately, no one was there. But I smell something from the kitchen. I followed the scent and saw Jin-hyung on his pajamas. Cooking.
JK: What's this?
Jin: Oh, it's your birthday feast.
Right. It was my birthday. Today is September 1.
Why are you doing this? You're hurt. I wanted to say all things but I'm crying already and I can't speak.
Jin: You're crying again.
JK: Why are you doing this? (Sobbing)
Jin: It's your birthday. We always have korean birthday feast on your birthday.
Jin approached me and hugged me and I hugged back.
Jin: Come on. Stop crying.
Yoongi: I smell good food!
Suga-hyung came down. I pulled away from Jin-hyung.
Jin: Come on, Yoongi. Let's eat.
Yoongi: I'll call everyone.
Jimin: Let's order a cake!
Jimin also went down. Hope is behind him.
Hope: Happy Birthday, JK!
Yoongi: Happy Birthday, Jungkook.
Jimin: Happy Birthday, Bro!
Jin: I told you it's your birthday feast! Come on let's eat.
[Present]
Yoongi: After a very heavy day, Jin-hyung brought us together again because of his cooking.
Jimin: I know. It must have been the best feast I ever had. I don't know if it's because I'm hungry or because we went through so much and for the first time since July, we were all eating together.
Yoongi: Must be the last one.
Jimin: Hahaha! I know, I know. V and Namjoon-hyung also reconciled that time.
Yoongi: JK apologized to me and asked for my help in his solo. Everyone was great.
Jimin: We're thankful for everyone who helped us clear the issue. Jin-hyung is fine. He's still on medication but he's fine. We're thankful for your support on JK's solo too.
Yoongi: Thank you, ARMY!
