Shadows Of The Maknae

Chapter 10: Overhead Confessions

Y/N'S POV

The next day after breakfast, I decided to check up on Namjoon. I was genuinely concerned for his well being as he has been downstairs in the medical lab for almost four days now. Hopefully, he'll heal quickly so he can be back on his feet and all I can hope for is for his quick recovery. Going downstairs, I made sure to be as quiet as possible as I didn't want to disturb anyone else down here incase they were.

Just as I reached the door though, I heard voices. My curiosity was getting the best of me as I leaned in to hear who was there. It was Jin, his tone filled with concern/worry.

"Namjoon, you have to be more careful. We can't afford to loose you." He sounded as if he had been crying, which I didn't expect. I know these boys were close, but seeing it up close and personal, it really was like they were a family. As dysfunctional it may be at times, they were still a family. I couldn't resist myself, I continued to listen on to the conversation.

"Jin, you worry too much, I'll be fine. You shouldn't stress yourself over me."

"Namjoon, you idiot. You have no idea how much trouble you have caused me within these past few days." Jin's voice suddenly turned cold and mean, his anger definitely present. My eyes widened as I heard Jin talk like this for the first time. He must have been really worried.

"Jin... is something wrong? What are you talking about, tell me."

"I can't hide it anymore Namjoon.... I love you." He was pouring out his feelings to Namjoon. I know I shouldn't be here... but my damn self couldn't help but wanting to hear what would happen next.

"I've been carrying for you and worried about you because I couldn't possibly fathom the thought of loosing you. You're the most important person in my life and I can't imagine a future without you by my side."

It was truly a confession of love and my heart skipped a beat. I accidentally let out a gasp and before I could stop myself. I felt my anxiety start to rise, knowing that it was loud enough for either one of them to hear. Suddenly, I see Jin stare into my eyes, seething with anger as he saw my face between the crack of the door. He was furious and didn't even for once, hesitate to show it. He rushed over to me as he grabbed me by the hair, his grip tight and painful.

"You little eavesdropper," He hissed, pulling me closer to him. I visibly winced at his vice like grip. I tried to get him off with my hands, but he was much stronger than I was.

"Jin, I swear, I didn't mean too. I was just going to check up on Namjoon and overheard." Jin's grip tightened even more, if that was even possible. I was surprised at his strength as I let out a whimper of pain. I could see from behind Jin that Namjoon had sat up from his bed to see what was happening.

"You listen to me. What you heard is none of your business. If you ever think about sharing it with anyone... I'll make sure you will regret it." His voice low and threatening, making me shiver. I've never seen Jin like this before and in all honesty... it scared the crap out of me, not knowing what he was really capable of.

"I won't say anything Jin! I promise." I struggled in his grip, tears threatening to spill any second now. Jin finally released his grip on me as he pushed me forward towards the door.

"You better keep that promise, Y/N or I swear there will be consequences. Some secrets are meant to stay hidden and you best remember that." I nodded before running out of the room and back upstairs. I couldn't help but wonder what consequences lay ahead of accidentally hearing this information and I was terrified.

Third Person

Namjoon watched as Y/N left the room, concerned for the both of them. He knew Jin acted out of anger and frustration and that what Y/N did was not on purpose.
