Born to be mine

Wheres Jimin?

Jung kook had felt bad at leaving Jimin then told himself he never worried like this about his other hook ups, but it didn't stop him casually driving past Jimins every night for three days, but no lights were on in the house.
He even parked up outside the home waiting for Jimin to appear but all he saw was various families coming and going.
Where was Jimin? He went to Jimins bar and hung around. Suga came up to him," looking for someone?"
"I er wondered if Jimin was here?"
"No, actually he hasn't been in for a few days." He frowned.
He took out his phone dialling a number." Damn it's turned off!"
"Does he usually do this?"
"Well sometimes but....."
"But?"
Suga sighed," he's done it before if a kid has died, he arranges the funeral helps the family get home and stays nearby to make sure they are ok, then holes up somewhere wondering if he could have helped more,"
"Doesn't he tell you?"
"No, Jimin has always been self sufficient, his parents did a number on him so he's tried not to make himself rely on others or be a bother, so he goes off gets sad and comes back to carry on with his life, trying to provide more for the other families•
Suga was now dialling another number," hi it's Suga did something happen? Oh no poor parents, yes I'm sure he was, ok I'll wait for him to turn up, thanks,"
He turned to Jungkook," as I thought, a six year old died, he has been back and forth to the hospital for cancer treatment, Jimin knew him well he used to sit with him in hospital when he couldn't sleep, they would play games...., Damn it why is life so cruel?"
Jungkook was worried," Jimin...., he really cares for the families doesn't he?"
"He told me once he was very lucky in life even though his parents were no good his grandparents couldn't have loved him more, he felt safe and looked after, so he wanted these families to feel safe and cared for but every death hits him hard."
Jungkooks whole opinion of Jimin being a sassy rich boy had been totally wrong. He had seen the innocent boy pretending to be a strong man, he was genuinely a caring human being.
Jungkook said his goodbyes and walked to his car.
Getting to his apartment he poured a glass of wine and sat by the window his thoughts still on Jimin.It was almost like the boy had taken over his life, picking his phone up he dialled a number," hey Jennie it's Kook, I'm fine just wondered if you wanted to go out, you do ok I'll pick you up in forty minutes"
He quickly changed into black shirt and jeans, maybe a little fun with Jennie would sort his head out.
He picked her up and they drove to one of his old haunts that was popular with media outlets trying to get the gossip on well known people. As the two walked in Jungkook with his arm around Jennies waist guiding her she laughed up at him a camera flashed.
"Mr Jeon , Mr Jeon , have you any news on your company?"
"No just that it's running fine, but I'm here with a beautiful lady to have fun so if you'll  excuse me...."
The pair went into the club getting a table and ordering drinks which came minutes later, Jungkook gulped his down and waved for another one,"
"Hey slow down what's the hurry? Jennie said.
"I'm sorry your right,"
Fifteen minutes later they were still sitting there.
Jennie sighed," ok out with it whose got you all hot and bothered,"
Jungkook was about to lie but knew Jennie would know." Ahh I don't know, someone I recently met and now, for some reason they occupy my brain all the time!!"
"Oooh don't tell me the great Jungkook has finally fallen for someone!"
"No of course not, I mean  ...., well, hell I don't know," he admitted.
"Well how do they feel about you?"
"Hard to say,"
"Did you ask or was it one of your hit and run hook ups?"
Jungkook had the grace to look ashamed , Jennie knew him so well which is why they were just friends and nothing else.
"Kook you know you really need to grow up stop hitting on anyone and have a proper relationship ,"
"Ah ! Are you my mother?" He laughed
"No just a concerned friend who worries you'll miss or mess up on something special." She sighed.
"I won't , come on let's enjoy the night ,"
The pair got up and danced, joining others they knew.. Cameras flashed but nobody took any notice.
Eventually getting a taxi to drop Jennie off first then him Jungkook got home and tiredly undressed and showered. Just before he fell asleep he hoped Jimin came back soon.
Jimin wearily got to his house, he felt drained, sadness seeping all through him, the family kept thanking him but he didn't want that, he had just tried to help Jin Li's family, he'd become very fond of the boy and had spent a lot of time with him. He had seemed to be getting better then taken a turn for the worse . He could still see the boys determined face when they had talked," when I grow up Jimin I'm going to help people like you do, "
"That's great Jin Li, I could do with a helper,"
"We will be like super heroes !"
"Well I'm not going to wear a cape!"
"No Jimin you just wear your smile then everyone will feel happy like I do."
Jimin felt the tears rolling down his face, he could really do with some company right now, maybe Jungkook was free, he picked up his phone then realised he didn't have his number..
Finding Tae's number he called," Jimin, where have you been?"
"I er, I , Jin Li died Tae, after all that he died,"
"Oh god Jimin I'm sorry ,do you want me to come over?"
Jimin thought then ," you sure, you're not going out with Jungkook are you?"
"Kook? No he's out with Jennie by the look of all the posts pinging in the media,"
Jimin didn't know he could feel worse but that news brought him down further.
"H-he is?"
"Yer, I'll get on my way to you ok,"
"No, it's ok Tae, I think I will just go to sleep it's been tiring and I have to paint a room tomorrow."
"Jimin......, ah I can't imagine how your feeling but why not get someone in to do it or leave it, you don't have to repaint every time a child dies."
"I know, I do really, but, by doing it I feel the next family that use that room will have a fresh start no bad vibes."
"Ok...., but don't stress yourself out, it's like they take a little piece of you with them each time......"
Jimin sniffed then hurriedly got off the phone.
He put his laptop on caught up with messages and then flipped to local media, there in a photo was Jungkook with his arm around a pretty woman looking like he adored her, other pictures inside the club caught them again. The headline read,"kid Jeon Jungkook finally settling down, he seemed to be enjoying himself with the same women he's been seen with many times, when's the announcement Mr Jeon? Don't keep the lady waiting ."
Jimins heart felt like it shattered completely. He'd known of course he had that to Jungkook their little interlude meant nothing but a little part of him had hoped Jungkook  had missed him, now he felt like the third person in a relationship, he would never have instigated their get together if he had known he was all but married. He felt badly for the girl.
He couldn't sleep after that so he left early in the morning, collected his painting gear from the shed in the grounds and struggled up the stairs with the stuff. He quietly got in with the work at hand totally unprepared for what was to come.
