Jimin giggles at Namjoon's poorly drawing. "It looks like a wannabe stick figure." He comments.
Namjoon frowns, pretending to be upset as he lowers the notebook down. He pouts and closss the notebook, pretending to be offended. Jimin nervously laughs at his reaction and quickly grabs the notebook, opening to the page back to where his drawing is at. Namjoon still had his hands on the notebook.
"I'm kidding! I'm kidding!" Jimin says in a nervous panic.
Namjoon curls up and smile chuckles. "I know. I'm just pushing your buttons. I'm not an artist."
Jimin let's go of the notebook and slaps his shoulder, crossing his arms with a pout. Namjoon jerking a bit and laughing at him from freaking him out playfully. He puts the notebook to the side and scoots close to him to put his arms around him. Jimin giggles, getting out of being a pretend upset, smiling big.
"You're so cute." Namjoon comments, kissing his face a bunch.
After that, both of them laid on their stomach as they were both getting tired, Namjoon was more sleepy. During that time, Jimin had the nightstand light on as he was still drawing with passion. It was one of those nights when they didn't care about the time. It was at least two in the morning but they weren't watching the clock.
Namjoon was still awake, staring at him with a soft smile. Jimin wasn't paying attention, too focused on his drawing of a realistic flower. Namjoon decides to sit up a bit, still having his arms around the pillow that he's using.
"Jiminie."
Jimin stops drawing and looks at him. "Yes?"
"You know I love you, right?"
Jimin faintly smiles. "Of course I do. I do love you too."
"Can we make another promise?" Namjoon tilts his head.
Jimin nods. "Yeah."
"Can you promise that you won't hurt yourself?"
Jimin's smile couldn't help to lower. "What do you mean?" He nervously smiles with a scoff.
"Promise me that you won't hurt yourself." Namjoon softly repeats. "In any way, even if Tae begs you to."
Jimin curls his brows. That's the one promise he knows he'll break someday. Tae is strong, mentally strong. He's able to get under Jimin's skin so easily. Jimin flutters his eyes down, gulping hard at the promise he's trying to make. But he wants Namjoon to stay happy if he tells him the truth. Jimin slowly looks back up to him and smiles small, nodding.
"I promise."
▁▁▁▁▁
That memory was a while back.
Namjoon, Jeongguk and Hoseok are currently waiting in a hospital, waiting for Jimin while still being in their school uniforms. Jeongguk and Hoseok were sitting while Namjoon is pacing back and forth in front of the two. Jeongguk had his elbows rested on top of his knees while a leg bouncing uncontrollably. Hoseok was messing with the edge of the tie he has on the uniform, making it a fidget toy by twirling it around his finger.
Namjoon's a mess. He couldn't stay still. Sooyoung was waiting with them too, being on the other row of chairs in the waiting area. She's unable to say what she saw due to almost being traumatized by it. Namjoon was trying to get an answer out of her but she wouldn't say a single thing. Jeongguk and Hoseok wanted to know too but they had to keep Namjoon calm for the first time of experiencing it.
Hoseok glances at Jeongguk, deciding to reach over and softly holds his hand. Jeongguk stops bouncing his leg and looks at him. Hoseok showed a worried look to him, knowing he needs it. Jeongguk flutters his eyes back down and intertwines their hands together.
"I'm okay." Jeongguk says to him. "I've been through it before."
Hoseok nods. "I'm still going to comfort you."
Jeongguk side smiles at him, then looks over at Namjoon. He's still pacing, biting on his nails a bunch. Hoseok looks at him too and frowns. Hoseok has never seen Namjoon like this before when they first met. Hoseok lowers his eyes and frowns, looking at Jeongguk with a worried look.
"Has he been like this before?" Hoseok whispers to Jeongguk.
Jeongguk shrugs but nods. "Not often."
"What the fuck are they doing with him? What is taking so damn long!?" Namjoon bluntly says, his voice in anger with a mixture of worry.
Sooyoung nervously grips her phone by Namjoon's tone.
"Namjoon. Please calm down." Hoseok softly says, noticing Sooyoung's movement. "They'll let us know once the doctors discuss with his parents."
"You don't know shit, Hoseok." Namjoon faces him, brows knitted.
Hoseok let's go of Jeongguk's hand and stands up. "How about you stay fucking calm about the situation first. We're all stressed and worried for Jimin, just like you are."
Jeongguk quickly stands up and puts his hands on both of their shoulders. "Guys, enough. Please."
Namjoon's jaw shakes. He pushes Jeongguk's hand off, glaring at him before walking over to sit down beside Sooyoung to try and relax. Hoseok's serious face disappears, sitting back down and sighing. Jeongguk moves his hand off and sits down too.
"Park Sooyoung?"
Namjoon immediately stands back up and faces the doctor by standing in front of them. Sooyoung stands up after and walks up to the doctor, hoping Namjoon stays silent, only standing beside him. Jeongguk and Hoseok stand up too but stayed at their chairs and only to listen to them.
"How's my brother?" She softly spoke.
"He's stable and resting. We gave him pain killers so he could rest and sleep. To make sure, we had to cuff him to the bed so he doesn't do anything to himself. He doesn't want any visitors at this time." The doctor explains in a nice way possible.
"Why the hell not?"
Sooyoung puts a hand on Namjoon's arm. "Namjoon..."
"He's only letting his parents visit and to fill out paper work for him. He's unstable." They explain, looking at him.
"What did he do to himself? Pl-Please at least tell me that." Namjoon begs, brows curled up.
The doctor looks at Sooyoung for approval since she was the one who saw him. They look back to Namjoon, taking a quiet deep breath. "He stabbed both of his eyes with sharp pencils. He also self harmed on his inner thighs."
