Broken Pieces : Yoonmin

30

Jimin

It was almost two by the time both of us left, me bidding goodbye to all the girls and a smiling Hoseok dragging me out of the air stuffed place filled with sweaty bodies swaying and making out with each other. The fresh air slapped our faces as soon as we stepped out of Wild Dreams. Hoseok grinned and looked at me with obvious relieved eyes.

"Oh God. That was stressful." The work, indeed, was really stressful with about hundreds of eyes gawking at us while we did some exotic dance on what seemed like a stage in the middle of the bar. Some whistled while some shouted how much he loved my ass and how Hoseok grinded on it. It was okay, sort of, atleast they didn't cross their limits of touching me or forcing me to do something I didn't want to.

"Yes. It was." My replies were cold and dry but the smile on my face said other things. I was relieved that I had Hoseok by my side and was not alone. The thought of shaking my ass alone in front of the whole crowd of hungry men was enough to dig a hole deep on the ground and then never come back, maybe die there because of scarcity of food and other necessary stuff. Again, I can't leave Jihyun alone.

"Uh, Jimin are you really okay?" I knew about what he was referring to. I had an obvious bulge because of the natural reactions of my body being manhandled and guided by Hoseok on the stage to dance. Hoseok was really hot and attractive and that generally led my body to react a bit too much than it was supposed to. My cheeks flushed as I managed to smile from the embarrassment. "Y-yeah. Just i-ignore that. Please?" The other male chuckled as he turned towards me and kneeled down a bit to match my height. "Let's go somewhere!"

Before I could deny or reject, my hand was pulled into some car I assumed to be Hoseok's. He flashed me a smile as he drove across the night streets of Seoul. I opened the window and leaned towards it, feeling the cold yet pleasant wind slapping my face. Seoul glittered at night even if it was really late. All the shops and malls were closed but the street lights and fairy lights made my insides churn, it was beautiful and mesmerizing.

We stopped at a deserted place after a few minutes. Only a few lights illuminating the path as both of us walked following it, hand in hand. It was the first time for me who was walking at a deserted street so late at night. Naturally, my hand reached his for safety to which Hoseok remained silent but smiled nonetheless.

It grew darker as we advanced more following the street. The only light coming from the shining moon and stars. "Don't look up." I followed his order as we walked more, finally stopping by what seemed like an old abandoned park. The ground was moist, some parts covered with grasses, a broken swings stayed abandoned at the corner and an old bench just beneath the tree. It was quiet, only some sounds of crickets filling the serene atmosphere occasionally.

What I didn't expect was to find a mint green haired male, sitting on that old bench and blowing some smoke. My feet freezed and blood rushed to my face, making it red, heart beating faster from the sight of the oddly familiar male directly staring at me and Hoseok holding hands. Hoseok beside me visibly paled and his eyebrows furrowed, eyes widening at the sudden realization. I was still confused and internally prayed that Yoongi didn't misunderstand us.

I was really a fool to believe that Yoongi had even a bit of feelings towards me. I dreamt high just because we two fooled around for a bit, making out here and there secretly. I thought, maybe...maybe he wanted something to have with me. I had liked him for as long as anyone can remember, I wanted to feel loved by him. Only if I knew these were all some hallucinations, I would have made it sure to keep my feet on ground and not have high expectations.

I didn't want him to find how low I was, working in some bar after late at night, bringing some food and money to provide all the daily necessities for my brother. I wanted to make sure he had a good and stable life even after having an abusive dad and a weak hyung. What would Yoongi do after finding about the supposed 'part time' I worked? He would probably dump me for sure.

Not that we had anything to end. An unspoken relationship can never end. Maybe all sort of communications would be cut from disgust.

I pulled my hand from Hoseok's grip and looked down on the grass. It was really awkward as tears threatened to fall from my eyes. As soon as I thought my life was going uphill a few hours before, this happens. My nails digged in my palms and my hands fisted, trying not to have a damn panic attack in front of my new friends, especially in front of Yoongi. He would be disgusted.

Hoseok finally decided to break the silence as he left my side and walked towards the sitting male, his eyes still not moving an inch from my figure. How the fuck am I supposed to explain this situation?

"Hey, Yoongi Hyung. Didn't expect to see you here this late." He spoke casually as he sat beside the male, signaling me to come closer.

"Neither did I, Hoseok."

The burning gaze made me want to jump off the cliff but I stayed still.

"Hey, Jimin." The raspy voice had me nervous. A wave of worry rushed through my mind hearing the voice which sounded like he was crying for about some time now, maybe before we came. I didn't waste any other moment as I walked towards him and wrapped my arms around his neck. Yoongi didn't say anything but allowed me to hug him without any other words, his mint scent mixed with a tinge of smoke surrounding me. Hoseok didn't say anything and just watched how I literally pulled him in my arms and the few tears that left my eyes.

About a minute passed by when I was pulled back to reality by Hoseok's voice. "Look at the stars." I looked up to find a magnificent veiw, stars glittering in the night sky with the moon shining brightly, lighting the dark park with moonlight. It seemed surreal as my mouth gaped a bit, taking in the magical veiw as my small hands still held Yoongi's.

I wished this to last longer but soon I was pulled by Yoongi.

"It's late. Let's go home." And he dragged me from the place to somewhere I knew it was safe.

Hoseok sat alone while staring at us leaving.
