Jimin collected his things clearing any sign of his existence from Jungkooks home.
"Jimin,it's just for now the doctor says he has to remember on his own," Tae said quietly as he picked up the cases that seemed to heavy for the pale faced male.
"Don't you see Tae,he doesn't want to remember me...it's been three days and nothing,it's like I never existed,......we came out in public....for nothing " Jimin whispered,the hurt inside knawing at him. He'd gone to the hospital ready to hug his boyfriend when his memory came back but Jungkook had insisted his friends tell the intruder to go,so here he was clearing his stuff before Jungkook got home later that day.
Methodically he cleaned the place when Tae's phone rang.
"Hi...what already?no he's finished we will leave now,"
Jimin looked up," Jungkooks discharged himself ,he's on his way Suga and Jin with him.
"Oh...ok let's go...."
They both left driving in Tae's car to Jimins.
Taking the others case from the car Tae walked to Jimins apartment.
"It's ok Tae,Jungkook will expect you at his.....I'm going to have a nap..."
Tae looked worriedly at his friend then nodded going back to his car and left.
Jimin went to his room curled up in a ball and gave way to the gut wrenching sobs he'd kept inside.
"Thank god I'm home I can't stand hospitals.Its annoying the doctor told the managers I'm not to go on social media or my computer,something about slight head trauma,what difference would it make!"
"Idiot,your supposed to be resting your brain,er one of the tests they did showed a little anomaly,something you should know but forgot,and no we are not telling you it's something you have to get back by yourself."
"Well it can't have been important,I would easily remember if it was!"
Jin and Suga looked at each other worriedly.
"One of us will stay with you for a bit," Jin said.
"Whatever for,I'm not sick!"
"Because we will be here when you remember so shut up and agree!"
"Ok but I'm not used to sharing my home with anyone it was bad enough when the seven of us shared a dorm!"
Both the others noticed he said seven,while he didn't .
"How about I cook us something?" Jin said
"Great I don't know what's here though,"
They wandered into the kitchen and Jin soon had a tasty meal on the go.
"Set the table kook,"
Jungkook went to get water glasses reaching for the top shelf where he had put them,frowning when he saw them on a lower shelf,when had he done that?
They were all sitting eating and talking about everyday stuff.
"This is good Jin,Jungkook I'm glad you had a good supply of food!"
"There was a lot wasn't there...I must be a glutton!"
"Yer the only thing missing was seafood but that's because J......" Jin stopped panicked
"Jungkook probably didn't get that because it's better fresh right?" Suga filled in getting Jin out of a hotspot,Jimin wasn't keen on seafood.
Jin smiled gratefully.
"Ok then I'm off,Jin's here tonight and tomorrow,then whoever is free." Suga said
"God you make me sound like a kid who needs a babysitter!"
"Well for the next week that's what you are.."
"Week...,no!!I'll go stir crazy!"
"Doctors orders,you can concentrate on your songs your writing and you have your home gym."
Tae buzzed himself in,
"Hey what's that smell have you already eaten?"
"Serves you right you should have been here to welcome me home what was so important?" Jungkook huffed.
"A friend needed me..."
Suga and Jin looked at him worriedly and he shrugged his shoulders in a defeated attitude.
"Well I hope your friends ok,but now you can chat with Jin and I Suga is going..."
"Ok why don't you show me the songs you've been writing?"
"Ok...thanks Suga see you soon..."
The pair went of to Jungkooks little studio.
"God I hope he remembers soon,he can't stay away from work forever....,poor Jimin he's probably devastated."
"We should keep an eye on him too..."
Suga nodded then left.
The evening was spent in fun playing games that got sillier and sillier.
"It's late you should sleep...," Jin said
"Tae it's too late for you to go ,let's do rock paper scissors see who shares," Jungkook laughed then he frowned as a fragment of this happening before came into his head.
"You ok Kook?"
"I just....it was like we had this conversation before...,but someone else was there too?"
"You remember!"
"You mean it's happened....?who was it.....Hobi right you guys and me somewhere so we decided who was sharing with who am I right?" He said proudly
"Er....yer....its happened,"
"It's ok Kook I have to go home I have a photo shoot tomorrow."
"Oh ok....see ya."
Jin set himself up in the spare room and then checked in Jungkook whom he found sound asleep his arm outstretched as if looking for someone.
Jin sighed turning the light off and then hearing the other muttering 'Jimin' in his sleep.
"Good all is not lost,you seek him in your sleep let's just get your daytime on par shall we?!"
Two days passed Jimin sent out a message that he'd gone to the seaside for a few days when really he holed up in his apartment ,sleeping barely eating and watching old movies completely zoning out on the real world.
"Tae have you spoken to Jimin he's not answering my calls just texts later saying he's been out all day and he's tired so going to bed." Hobi said sitting in Jungkooks sitting room.
"Ssh,he might hear you," Tae murmured
"No he's in the gym listen you can hear his music,"
"How long is this going on Hobi,why doesn't he remember Jimin?"
"The doc said a traumatic moment can make you close your mind off....he dashed to save Jimin got hurt then Jimin let loose on those people and Jungkook passed out shutting off the memory....his worry for Jimin maybe stopping him wanting to relive it."
"Ha got you....what are you all hiding from me?you think I can't tell somethings going on?"
"J-jungkook,we thought you were exercising..."
"I was but needed some water...I heard you two talking so spill what's going on?"
"Nothing " they both blurted quickly.
"Is that so? Tae give me your phone,"
"Why?"
"Just want to ask Namjoon something"
Tae looked at Hobi," give him it Namjoon will tell him the same nothings going on," Hobi shrugged
Tae smiled of course he would.
"Here..."
Jungkook took it going to the window looking out as he dialled the number,Tae and Hobi now looked relaxed.
"Tae what's up?"
"No it's me Jungkook...why didn't you tell me the truth ,Tae and Hobi let the cat out of the bag,I'm disappointed in you!"
Tae and Hobi screeched but Jungkook hurried into his study locking the door.
"Jungkook we only did it because the doctor advised it,you think we want Jimin to suffer like this after he came out in front of all those people?"
Jimin....that name again.....his head buzzed.
"It wasn't fair on either of us..." he said his vision blurry.
"So now you know do you remember your boyfriend...?"
"Boyfriend.......aaaaah!"
"Kook...kook what's happening ?"
Jungkook held his head as memories zapped around like a movie,jimin laughing with him,Jimin dancing seductively til they made love...Jimin.......
Banging on the door brought him back to the here and now...he reached out unlocking the door.
Tae picked his phone up where Namjoon was still shouting into it.
"Jimin....how the hell could I forget my Jimin!"
