Darling

- 6 -

I swear, one week of this book is not enough, I want to write for it so much more 😭

My eyes are wide as Jimin pulls up into the parking lot of our destination, a large house that looks old, but well maintained, the expensive look to it letting us know right away that our new friends aren't on the same monetary level as we are.

It makes sense now, why they agreed so easily to buying whatever I would've pointed at at the shop. The few bags they left with would've made me cry for a week if the money had come from my bank account.

As soon as Jimin turns off the engine, we get out of the vehicle to be greeted by an anxious Yoongi who opens the door like the inside is on fire. He must've heard us coming, or his face was plastered into the window until he saw us, it's one or the other, I'm sure.

His eyes fall briefly on me, surprised but otherwise pleased before he's rushing back in the house, the door left opened behind him for us.

Jimin turns to me before running inside, the man's reaction leaving us to believe that Namjoon's condition might be much worse than we were expecting, but when we make our way inside, here he is, sat in the living room, swelling, yes, but otherwise smiling when his eyes fall on my brother.

"Oh, you're here. I swear, these guys made it sound worse than it really is, it's just a little bit of swelling, I'll be fine. I'm sorry you had to come here at this hour for something so... lousy" he says but Jin slaps the back of his head with a book, clearly unhappy with that claim.

"Something so lousy? Do you even know what an allergy is? Your immune system is currently fighting-" "Yes, yes, I know hyung, but I also know that in a few hours, I'm going to be fine, it's not like I'm dying, it's just a slight itch" Namjoon cuts him off, not minding the glare he gets before turning back to us, eyes smiling when he sees me hiding slightly behind Jimin.

"Without taking into account the current situation, I have to say it is good to see you two again" he says before giving his attention to me, which causes me to tense a little because I would've expected him to have eyes only for my brother again.

"Jungkook is sadly not here, he's presently at work, he called you first because he was the only one with your phone number, you were the closest choice before Jimin, I hope his calling didn't wake you up" he explains, but I shake my head to reassure him that he in fact didn't wake me up, a little disappointed that I won't get to see him after all.

He smiles understandingly when he notices my pout before letting his gaze fall back on Jimin who proceeds to take the bottle of pills out of his pocket when he remembers why exactly we're here.

"Right, I hope this does the trick, they're strong ones, I always keep them around, just in case, I'm glad they're finally finding a purpose" he starts before pausing as he registers what he just said, eyes then turning wide.

"I mean, I'm not saying that you getting an allergic reaction is good! I'm just... take it!" he eventually screams out, embarrassed and the man chuckles while Jin reaches out to grab the bottle before heading somewhere out of view.

I push Jimin inside while eyeing at Yoongi who's currently kneeling in front of Namjoon, his eyes worried and afraid, and push him again when he doesn't budge until he finally relents hesitantly, shoes removed to go join the duo who welcome him warmly, Namjoon patting the seat besides him so he can talk with them.

I remove my shoes as well and retrace the trail that I saw Jin do to find him in a large kitchen, his back turned to me as he fills a glass with water.

"Need something, sweetheart?" he asks without looking at me and for a moment, I wonder if he believes me to be someone else, but when he turns to peek at me when I don't answer, I find that he was very well aware that it was me.
