The Kim twins

Chapter 12: Where are they?

Harley was looking for her brother. They had a couple of assignments to do, and as usual anything that involved learning, they had to do it privately. Harley hated having people roaming around her while studying. She wanted peace and quiet. However, Jin wasn't in his room, instead there was a half naked Jimin, wearing a pair of tight skinny jeans. Her eyes roamed on his bare back, his skin was smooth like silk, and she almost imagined what it would be like to lick an ice cube from his body. Trails of water running down his skin. She bit her lower lip as her eyes landed on his plum ass and thick thighs. Ever since she saw his picture, Harley was mesmerized. She shook her head. It wasn't good to be lusting for her brother's roommate, but god dammit he looked like a walking, breathing angel.

She cleared her throat, making Jimin jump at the sudden invasion of his privacy. He turned around and clutched his hand on his chest, where his heart was underneath his palm. "You scared me."

"I'm sorry. I didn't mean to." Oh, she was sorry all right. Sorry to scare him, but not sorry to stare at him. Any person with blood in its veins had to admit that he was beautiful. Holy. Ethereal.

"It's ok." Jimin smiled as he put on one of his black t-shirts. "Looking for Jin?"

"Yeah." She felt awkward by talking to him normally after she stared at him like a full course meal.

"I think he was looking for you." Jimin replied. He was putting his books in his backpack.

"Aha." She mumbled looking at her feet. "Jiminie, do you have a girlfriend or boyfriend?"

Jimin stood silent for a couple of seconds. That was wishful thinking. All he wanted was to be loved, but since his abuse started, that ship has sailed. It made him sad. He was a good person. He didn't deserve to be treated that way. He too deserved happiness and love. He too wanted to experience what it felt being in a relationship. Yet, fate had a different story reserved for him since it brought Yoongi along his path.

"No." He simply answered. It was easier than explain what was wrong with him.

Harley's heart jumped in her chest. For some unknown reasons, she loved his answer. "Oh, ok.. She looked around the room. It was still clean and comfortable. "I should call him. Thank you Jiminie." She kissed his cheeks and giggled. "See you around." 

Yoongi was going restless as days passed by. Both Namjoon and him were looking for the twins in the last couple of days. It was like the earth had swallowed them alive. They were nowhere in sight. They weren't in class, cafeteria, or anywhere for that matter. Something was growing inside his heart, it could have been fear, or anger, it was something that had no name, yet, it was suffocating him. Yoongi felt a tad guilty for showing her his deepest secret. He feared he drove her away, which not only bothered him, but also put a kink to their plans.

Yoongi didn't even understand why he was so hanged up on the girl, it wasn't like he fell in love with her. He felt nothing, nothing on the surface at least. Yet, there was something endearing about being accepted for who you were, rather than how people perceived you. How can you show someone your deepest, darkest corner of your mind, and hope they would stay?

If Namjoon were to find out he drove them away, his friend would not be happy. He knew for a fact that they haven't left the university, since he made Hoseok ask Jimin if Jin had gathered his stuff and left. Jimin said it was weird that they weren't there, especially since they promised to be there for him. Yoongi listened to their conversation, and didn't miss the loneliness and fear in Jimin's voice. Thankfully, the rest of the campus learned fast that Jimin was protected now and nobody dared to touch him again. Mostly due to the fact that the last people who attacked him ended up in the middle of the gym, naked and tied up together.
