Yoongi murmured, his eyelids fluttering open ever so slightly.

Jimin's heart leaped with joy as he leaned closer to Yoongi, his eyes filled with tears of relief.

"Yoongi, you're awake! Oh, thank goodness."

Yoongi managed a weak smile, his voice still barely above a whisper.

"I couldn't stay asleep when you were crying, Jiminie."

Jimin chuckled through his tears, overwhelmed with happiness. "You stubborn idiot. I was crying because I was so worried about you."

Yoongi's eyes drifted shut again, his strength waning, but he whispered, "I'm sorry for worrying you, Jimin. I'll make it up to you when I'm better."

Jimin leaned down and pressed a gentle kiss to Yoongi's forehead, his heart overflowing with love and relief.

"You don't need to make it up to me, Yoongi. Just promise me you'll get better soon."

Yoongi nodded, his eyelids heavy. "I promise, Jiminie."

As Yoongi slipped back into a peaceful slumber, Jimin remained by his side, holding his hand and silently thanking whatever forces had brought his beloved back to him.

After a month of arduous physical therapy and continuous care, Yoongi finally returned home, almost fully recovered.

Stepping through the door of his house, he couldn't help but inhale deeply, taking in the familiar scent that he had missed so much—the warmth of his home.

Jimin, who had been a constant source of support throughout Yoongi's recovery, guided him to the living room.

With a sigh of relief, Yoongi settled onto the sofa, the comfortable familiarity of his own home washing over him.

Jimin sat down beside him, but the guilt that had weighed on him since the incident still lingered.

Yoongi noticed the sadness in Jimin's eyes and gently caressed his cheek with his fingers.

"You don't have to blame yourself, Jimin," Yoongi said softly, his voice filled with reassurance.

"You saved me. If it weren't for you, things could have been much worse. I'm proud of you, and I want you to know that."

Jimin's eyes filled with tears, and he hugged Yoongi carefully, mindful of his still-healing shoulder.

He whispered, "I was so scared, hyung. I thought I had lost you."

Yoongi hugged him back, his voice filled with tenderness. "You didn't lose me, Jiminie. I'm right here, and I'm not going anywhere."

Jimin pulled away slightly, his eyes filled with determination.

"Promise me, hyung, promise me that you'll stay away from Wonwoo from now on, no matter what."

Yoongi chuckled softly, a hint of amusement in his eyes. "You're sounding just like me, all protective and caring."

Jimin smiled, his gaze never leaving Yoongi's. "I missed your teasing, you know."

Yoongi smiled back, his fingers gently caressing Jimin's hair. "I missed you too, Jimin. But I'm back now, and we have a future to look forward to."

As they sat there, side by side, in the comfort of their home, their love stronger than ever, Yoongi and Jimin knew that they had weathered a storm together and emerged even more deeply in love and connected.

The challenges they faced had only made their bond unbreakable, and they were ready to face whatever lay ahead, hand in hand.

With Yoongi's steady recovery, he eventually returned to school, determined to resume his studies alongside Jimin.

As they entered the school corridor, they were met with the unexpected sight of Eunhee blocking their path.

Eunhee's face twisted with anger as she pointed accusingly at Jimin.

"I hate you, Park Jimin! You're the reason Wonwoo got suspended!"

Jimin's eyes widened in shock as he watched Eunhee walk away, her words echoing in the corridor.

He turned to Yoongi, confusion and worry written on his face. "Yoongi, what did you do? How did Wonwoo get suspended?"

Yoongi wore a satisfied smirk, his eyes glinting mischievously.

"Jimin, you worry too much. Wonwoo didn't get suspended. They kicked him out."

Jimin's jaw dropped in disbelief. "Kicked him out? But why?"

Yoongi chuckled, clearly enjoying the drama he had caused. "Well, it turns out, they discovered a few things about Wonwoo that they didn't like. Some not-so-legal activities, you know? So, they decided he wasn't a good fit for the school anymore."

(Flashback)

Before hanging up, Wonwoo's chilling laughter sent shivers down Yoongi's spine. He knew he had to go, but he couldn't face this alone.

Turning to his friend Hoseok, Yoongi made a request that weighed heavily on both of them.

"Hoseok, I need you to follow me to the third floor and record everything that happens there. We need evidence to put a stop to this once and for all."

Hoseok hesitated, his concern etched on his face, but he knew that this was necessary to bring an end to the reign of terror that Wonwoo had subjected Yoongi and Jimin to.

With a determined nod, Hoseok agreed, "Okay, Suga, I'll do it. We can't let him get away with this any longer."

As they made their way to the third floor, Hoseok discreetly kept his phone ready to record. The hallway was eerily quiet, and tension hung in the air like a thick fog.

When they reached the designated spot, Yoongi faced Wonwoo, his expression resolute. Hoseok stayed hidden, making sure his phone captured every moment.

The confrontation was brutal, with Wonwoo resorting to physical violence against Yoongi and Jimin. Hoseok's heart ached as he recorded it all, but he knew that this evidence was crucial to ending Wonwoo's reign of terror.

As Yoongi had instructed, Hoseok submitted the video directly to the principal. It was undeniable proof of the bullying and abuse that Yoongi and Jimin had endured for so long.

The consequences were swift and just. Wonwoo was accused of bullying and expelled from the school, his reign of terror finally brought to an end.

(Present)

Jimin couldn't believe his ears. Wonwoo, the person who had caused them so much pain and trouble, had finally faced consequences for his actions.

It was a surprising turn of events, and Jimin couldn't help but feel a sense of relief.

As they continued down the corridor, Jimin couldn't stop himself from asking, "Yoongi, what did you do to make them uncover Wonwoo's actions?"

Yoongi winked at him playfully. "Let's just say I have my ways of finding information and ensuring justice is served."

Jimin couldn't help but laugh, feeling a newfound sense of security knowing that Yoongi was there to protect him and stand up against those who wished to harm them.

They walked together, hand in hand, ready to face whatever challenges lay ahead, knowing that their love could conquer all obstacles.























'When the world's a battlefield, and we're under fire,
In your eyes, I find my strength, my sole desire,
Though the tempest rages on, we'll stand so tall,
In your embrace, my love, I'll give my all.'
