In the previous chapter:

I shot up from my bed, with tears flowing down my cheeks.

"I should apologise to Hobi."

******************************

Jin's POV:

I stood in front of Hobi's apartment door, at six in the morning. I had a box of his favourite cupcakes, that I had baked at night, since I couldn't get a wink of sleep after the nightmare.

It was Sunday and there were no schedules, so I thought it was perfect time to apologise.

I rang his doorbell multiple times until I heard the locks turning. A sleepy Hobi opened the door, his hair messy and eyes half open.

"Hi Hobi" I sheepishly grinned, as soon as he looked at me.

He was about to slam the door on my face, but I barged in before he could.

"Mr. Kim, I would appreciate it if you stepped out. It is my day off and I do not wish to interact with you." Hobi spat and I flinched at his words.

I set the box of cupcakes on his tea table and looked back at him.

"Hobi I'm-"

"No! I don't want to hear it. I'm just a mere employee and nothing more, right? so you don't have to apologise to me, Mr. Kim. I will keep my boundaries in mind and not interfere with your personal matters, so you too please do the same." Hobi said, walking to me and picking up the box. He shoved the box back into my hands and started pushing me towards the door.

Hobi never rejects the cupcakes I bake...ever.

"Listen to me-" I tried talking to him, fighting his push.

He forced me out the door, but just as the door was about to be shut, I placed my free hand in between, causing my fingers to jam between the door and doorframe.

I yelped in pain, and the door was thrown open by Hoseok who had disbelief and worry painting his face.

"Jin you idiot! Why would you do that?" he asked pulling me in by my hand and inspecting the already forming bruises.

"Sit here and don't move. I don't understand why you are so stubborn. You don't even let me be mad at you." Hobi grumbled as he pushed me to sit on the couch and strode into his kitchen.

I placed the cupcakes back on the table and looked at my injured fingers, wincing a little at the pain when I tried to bend them. I heard a door open and close, and then the tap running.

He was back in a minute carrying a large bowl filled with water and ice cubes. He pulled my injured hand and dipped it into the ice water.

He glared at me when I hissed at the contact.

"Did u forget that your fingers can't handle minor injuries? huh? What was the need to put your hand in between the door like that? Did u even think how you'll keep up with your schedules if you end up with broken fingers? Why do you never listen-"

"Hoseok, I'm sorry" I interrupted causing him to still.

"For what? You weren't wrong, I was taking too much liberty on telling you what to do and-"

"No, I was wrong. You have the right to correct me if you think I'm doing anything wrong. You didn't do anything wrong Hobi. You are my best friend... my family. That day, I just..." I trailed off, slumping onto his side and he put an arm around me as silent comfort.

"They are back... the nightmares" I whispered and felt him tense at that.

"From when?"

"Just a few days ago."

"Shit! I'm so sorry Jinnie, I didn't know them staying would cause you to relapse." Hobi sighed. "I should've been on your side on this one, I'm sorry Jin-"

"Hobi please stop, none of it is your fault. Moreover, they aren't as bad as before" I said. He looked unconvinced but nodded.

"It's alright, I was just a little hurt-"

"I know and it's not alright. I should've never said those words. I love you Hobi... I don't think anyone would've put up with a friend like me."

"Friend like 'you?' Friend like you who recommends your friend to a position in your company, so that your friend can have a good paying job, and silence their parents who didn't support their son's passion? Friend like you? who strongly pushed for the company to appoint his friend as the dance choreographer for the newly debuting group so that he could do what he's passionate about? Friend like you? Who takes so called random day offs exactly on the days of dance schedules of the group, so that I can focus on the choreographies? Friend like you? who walked out on a role you loved the most just because one of the crew insulted me?"

He paused and I looked at him with eyes wide.

"Don't think I don't notice all these" Hobi said pulling my hand out of the water and patting it dry. "Just because you upset me and frustrate me sometimes doesn't mean I'll forget what you've done for me and how much you mean to me Jinnie. " He smiled at me.

"Hobi..." I trailed off and I could feel my lips turning downwards and eyes tearing up.

He laughed and ruffled my hair fondly, giving me a small hug.

"Do you wanna take a nap? Because I think I can see some dark circles appearing on your ever perfect face" he teased, and I chuckled punching his arm but nodded as I pulled back from the hug.

"Go take a nap in my room, and I'll make something for brunch with these cupcakes. I'm sure your careless ass hasn't eaten anything before driving here." he paused as he stood up. "Wait did u inform Mrs. Min you were coming over?" he asked, and I smiled sheepishly.

"Ugh Jin seriously? Fine you go rest, I'll text her and let her know." he grumbled.

"Hobi you're the best" I beamed jumping up and hugging him from behind, putting my full weight on him.

"Yah! Kim Seokjin! get your thirty-year-old ass off me!" he scolded pinching my side.

"Hey! I'm twenty-six do you hear me? you mean manager" I huffed offended.

"Whatever go on you big baby. I'll wake you up when the food is ready."

"Okay bye~" I sang and happily strode towards the room.

Third person's POV:

As he walked, the angel and devil appeared on each of his shoulders.

'That went well. Now we just gotta apologise to Yoongi' angel Jin spoke as it's silvery wings fluttered.

'Yoongi? who's that? Never heard of 'em' devil Jin feigned innocence, looking at his nails.

'Shut up you little brat! you almost cost us our most precious friendship. Let me handle this.'

'We'll see about that. Being a goody-two-shoes didn't get us anywhere before. So, letting you handle it is not something I'm fond on doing.'

They kept arguing back and forth until Jin fell into a peaceful slumber.
