A/n:canon compliant from when Jimin broke down in between "TTU" in Brazil...
..
And suddenly the distance between the pillars were seven seas far, Taehyung was close but he couldn't reach and could only see Jimin hunching forward to bend and cry into his hands.A piece of Taehyung's heart went with Jimin's tears,he watched as Jungkook crossed the bars,he was fairly close and held Jimin in his arms.Once the mics turned off and Taehyung could hear Jimin's gasps and whimpers through the in-ear. Jungkook's repeated 'hyung' and Jin's reassuring words failed to drown them.Taehyung walked just feet behind them,aching to reach forward, yank Jimin into his hold and keep him inside his arms but Jimin was pulled into the dressing room.He cried through changing clothes,as the rappers shook the stage above, Taehyung kept an eye on Jimin.
A stylist was kneeling infront of Jimin,reapplying his make up and calming him down,sometimes gently wiping the spilled tears onto his cheeks.Taehyung wanted to replace her,wanted to kneel infront of Jimin and look him in the eye.Tell him that he did great but he couldn't and all he could do was glance over several heads.It hurted.
"You okay?",He managed to ask just before they went up again and Jimin gave him a tight lipped smile.
"Jimin-", Taehyung couldn't complete,their cue was timed.

When the night spilled into the streets of Brazil and the concert adrenaline had finally settled,there was a knock on Jimin's door.Jimin leant his head against the door frame as he opened the door to his bestfriend,soulmate, boyfriend...all different names but the same warmth and love.It only took a few seconds for Taehyung to slam the door behind him and cup Jimin's face into his too large hands.
"Cried again?",He asked softly,pressing a kiss on Jimin's forehead and Jimin closed his eyes and nodded lightly.
"I am sorry am late ..I couldn't-"
"It's okay", Jimin's voice came in a whisper,hoarse on the edges from too much muffled crying.He walked back to his bed dragging Taehyung by his pyjama shirt.
A video was playing on Jimin's phone and one glance at it, Taehyung knew Jimin was watching the fancams from the concert.A particular one of truth untold stage.Taehyung reached forward and shut the phone,"I told you,you shouldn't watch these..hear it from me,you did well"
Jimin stared at the ground,a tear threatening by his eyes and he blinked away before Taehyung could catch it but Taehyung had climbed under the blankets.Jimin looked up to see Taehyung holding up the blanket inviting him in and Jimin did just that.He crawled under Taehyung's arms and settled on his chest.
Taehyung's hands travelled softly through Jimin's dark curls and he could feel Jimin was trying to hold it in.Taehyung tipped Jimin's chin up and caught his eyes.
"Baby",He said as he leant down to press a kiss on Jimin's lips but Jimin jerked back.
"You'll catch the cold too"
Taehyung just smiled and kissed him,Jimin hesitant but slowly matching Taehyung's rhythm.
"If I get cold and cry,you can tell me I did well too...I'll believe you", Taehyung chuckled and Jimin pouted.Taehyung kissed the pout .one,two..too many times.
"I wanted to do well ..I -"
"And you did ..Baby,I was watching you all through..I thought you'd pass out,you were dancing so hard"
"You're just saying ..cause you're my boyfriend "
"Exactly why you should believe me...I had my eyes only on you and I can vouch you were amazing", Taehyung kissed Jimin again,again and again till a pleasing smile formed on those wet plump lips.
"I just wish ..I wish I was where Jungkookie was..I wanted to hold you but I couldn't..get to you..even when we got off stage,I couldn't-", Taehyung trailed away and met Jimin's eyes,"I'm sorry,am not trying to downplay your feelings by saying what I felt but ...but I promised myself I'd protect you always", Taehyung gulped,"Watching you fall apart as I just stood there ..Jimin,am ..am sorry"
There was a smile on the breads of Jimin's cheeks and he leant up and pressed a kiss on Taehyung's nose.
"Your feelings are valid too and it's not downplaying mine.",Jimin brought a tiny finger to poke at Taehyung's chest,"We are meant to feel the pain together ..there's no you and me..it's us together"
And Taehyung failed this time to tuck away the tears down his face.He pulled Jimin closer till he could smell the lavender off Jimin's damp hair,tickling his neck.
"I love you..I love you so much,you are really an amazing artist,such a sweet person..hardworking and sincere,Jimin.Please don't think otherwise"
"I believe you...",Jimin closed his eyes,finally letting his mind to be at ease.Taehyung kissed on the top of his head and Jimin squirmed,"now Protect me like you promised",He said.
And Taehyung pulled him impossibly closer with resolution,"I love you"
"I love you more"
