(VII) 'Because it's your job.'

The next day.

Slowly, Jimin opens his eyes with a faint groan. He senses being half-naked and notices Yoongi sleeping next to him—he is holding Yoongi.

Jimin lets go of Yoongi in an instant and curses under his breath. He sits upright on the bed, making Yoongi flinch.

Yoongi slowly opens his eyes and breathes deeply. He gazes at Jimin with a small smile on his lips and slowly sits upright.

Jimin says, 'I'm sorry.' and gets up from the bed.

Without waiting for Yoongi's response, Jimin rushes to the bathroom.

An hour passes.

Yoongi and Jimin are having breakfast. The latter steals several glances at Yoongi.

Jimin gulps and asks, 'What were you doing in my room?'

Yoongi chokes on his rice. He coughs twice and gulps a mouthful of water.

Jimin continues, 'Are you okay?'

Yoongi nods in response.

Jimin raises his chin and nods once.

Yoongi breathes deeply yet shakily and says, 'You got drunk last night.'

Jimin says, 'Yeah, I know. I must have slept alone in my room.'

Yoongi parts his lips open in response.

Jimin, in a hesitant tone, asks, 'Did you do something to me?'

Yoongi says, 'What? No... Of course not.'
Jimin asks, 'What happened?'
Yoongi answers, 'You got drunk and almost passed out. I took you to your room.'
Jimin asks, 'And?'

Yoongi answers, 'And you said that you were hot...' and gazes at Jimin's lips. He continues, 'I helped you remove your clothes and you pulled me... Closer to you.'

Jimin says, 'Oh...'
Yoongi says, 'I tried to free myself from your hold but the hold was strong.'
Jimin asks, 'Is it just that you didn't really wanna free yourself from my hold or you couldn't?'
Yoongi asks, 'What?'

Jimin licks his lips nervously and answers, 'Forget it.'

Yoongi says, 'I didn't wanna hurt you. I could have easily freed myself from your hold but that would also mean hurting you.'
Jimin says, 'You have to protect me.'
Yoongi says, 'Yes...'

Jimin says, 'Because it's your job.' and begins to devour his rice.

Yoongi presses his lips tight and gazes at Jimin.

Jimin says, 'Anyway... I'm sorry. I shouldn't have troubled you.'
Yoongi says, 'That's okay...'

Jimin hums faintly in response and resumes having his food.

Later at night, Jimin is lying on the bed with his phone. He chuckles softly as he scrolls through it.

He turns to his right and keeps his phone on the bedside table. He sighs heavily and pulls the blanket to his chest.

Mr Park is sitting on the couch wearing a bathrobe. He is holding his phone in one hand while the other is holding a glass of alcohol. A pretty lady in her 20s is sitting next to him.

She kisses his cheek and flashes a flirty smile. He pecks her lips and sips a little out of his whiskey.

She says, 'Honey...' and runs her fingertips over his jawline.

He smells her and says, 'I'm all yours after this phone call.'

She chuckles seductively in response.

He mouths a kiss to her and makes a call to someone.
