His soft spot | pjm

chapter | 17

Y/N's POV

It's been five days since I last saw Jimin or heard about him.

I'm worried sick.

Over the last several days, I've gotten to know Taehyung better, and I'd even say I like his company. He's been reassuring me about Jimin, saying he goes missing from time to time and that I shouldn't be concerned, but I can't help but worry and miss him.

This time away from him helped me realize how much I like him.

Yes, I said it; I like him.

I miss his warmth, touch, comfort, him.

I feel like everything is falling apart, as dramatic as it sounds. Jimin is missing, and Hobi is no longer speaking to me, which I need to fix. The last five days helped me realize that I had been unfair to Hobi. I don't want to be like the girls who forget their friends the moment they find a love interest; I neglected him, I was a bad friend, and I need to fix it.

"Y/N" Taehyung snaps me out of my thoughts.

"Yeah?"I look up to him.

"Want to do something tonight? It's Friday, and we could-

"Yeah no.. I'm going to pass on that, sorry."I pack my stuff and close my locker.

"Oh alright.." he responds, clearly disappointed.

As we walk out of school I spot Hobi sitting on a bench.

Get your shit together Y/N.

"I'll walk home tonight, see you Monday?"I turn to Taehyung and he nods going his own direction.

I approach Hobi and sit down next to him. I can see him stiffen, which causes my heart rate to increase.

I am an awful friend.

"Look... I don't want you to say anything, just listen," I say, playing with my fingers.

"I am truly, deeply sorry for how I treated you.. I acted selfishly, Jimin actually took up quite a lot of my thoughts, causing me to neglect you. I'm so stupid for allowing a love interest to take over my head and forgetting about the only person who has always been there for me, to welcome me, to support me, and to be an amazing friend.." I pause to take a breath and swiftly peek his direction to see him looking at me.

"I..I took you for granted and turned into the person I vowed I'd never be. I'm not asking for your forgiveness, but please know that I genuinely regret the way I treated you and I'm sorry. I'm an awful friend. I nowhere deserve you as a friend, you're such a great person. I love you, and I hope you know that if you decide to forgive me, I will spend a long time making things right because you deserve nothing but the best."I finish and gaze his direction.

He stares out into nothing for a while, clearly lost in thought. He eventually lets out a sigh, drawing my focus back to him after about a minute of silence.

"So a love interest huh?"He gives me an arrogant smirk, and I'm left speechless.

"What?! Did you not hear anything I said?" His lack of seriousness annoys me, and to top it all, he laughs at me with his mouth hanging open.

He finally calms down. "Y/N, you did neglect me, but I don't hate you. I'll admit that at the time, I was having a rough day and couldn't tolerate your delusional state.  I'm not a fool, I am aware that you have a lot on your plate. It needed to be said for you to understand, but I was going to forgive you anyway; I know it wasn't intentional on your part, I know you well enough." He ends by ruffling my head.

"I'm sorry still.." I pull him into a tight hug.

"It's okay," he embraces back.

"Thank God, I missed you," I say with a sigh of relief, pulling away from the embrace.

"I missed you too, kiddo," he smiles.

"However you do look in bad shape.. how are you doing?" His expression becomes concerned.

"Well, this week has been rough since I haven't been able to talk with you, and Jimin has vanished. Guilt and worry were eating me alive, but I'm okay now." I explain, and he nods.

"Yeah Jimin is known for that, nobody knows why, or where, it's a mystery, don't worry too much he'll come around"he adds I nod.

"So you like him?" He wiggles his brows, and I stand up, hiding my face in my hands.

"Okay have a great weekend!!"I urge running away.

"Get back here, you—
