Love and Lies -- P.JM

20 - Dodge the Blow

"What bl-" before i could finish asking, he lunged towards me, landing a punch right in my ribs, sending me flying across the ring and onto the ground. Man he packs a punch...

"You ok?" he asks, holding a hand out for me.

"Yea..." i wince, taking his hand and getting up as i rub my ribs. It stings horribly. I'll deal with it later though. I stand back up straight, rubbing my ribs. I didn't even realize the rest of the guys were wincing at my own pain. Funny.

"Well, at least you can take a punch and still stand up." i laugh weakly at his comment, wanting to wipe that smile off his face.

"Now....this is your starting or defensive stance" he says, as he comes up behind me, moving my arms and folding my fingers into fists. "One leg in front of the other..." he mumbles, kicking my foot gently so i would move it.

"Now....try to dodge ok? Ready?" he says, moving back in front of me, maybe about 5 or 6 feet away.

I nod back, staying in the defensive position"ready..."

He lunged towards me again, to punch my stomach this time. However the blow never touched me or even brush against me.

"Holy shit!!" jimin yells tumbling onto the ground, receiving a gasp from the guys"what the hell was that?!!?"

I didnt even realize that i grabbed his wrist, turned and pushed him onto the floor of the ring.

I cup my mouth and mumble going over to him"im so so sorry....i don't even know how that happened..." i hold my hand out to him. He takes my hand and gets back up.

"Well shit. What was that moon?" he whispers

"I-i...i don't know....i....yea...i really don't know..." i mumble back.

He leans down a little, taking my hands and looks me in the eyes. "Moon...are you sure you've never trained like this before?"

"I'm sure jimin..." i whisper back. "I don't know how or why this is happening..."

In the mean time, tae and the guys stepped into the ring

"Moon...." tae mumbles, pulling me into his arms. I hug him tight, breath shaky.

"Tae..." i whisper back shakily

"How about we call it a day?" jungkook asks gently. I nod in response, letting go of taehyung and taking a deep breath.

"Ill be in my room if you need me..."

"I'll come too..." jimin says gently.

I look to tae who was glaring at jimin to leave me alone.

"Tae...its ok...he can come if he wants..." i say and step out of the ring, heading to my room.

After i walk into my room, jimin following me ike a duckling after its mother, i plop down on the bed, laying down.

"Hey...." jimin sits down next to me

"Im scared" i confess to him quietly.

"Oh come here..." he says softly, laying down next to me, pulling me into his arms. "We'll figure it out moon... together. You have me and the guys. You're gonna be ok. We wont' let anything happen to you lunes."

I whisper "how would you know whats happening if i don't even know?"

"We don't...but thats you have us...to keep you somewhat sane." he whispers, tracing circles on my back gently. "Why don't you take a nap? Ill wake you up when its time for dinner..."

"Ok..." i mumble, curling up into his chest, hugging him tight.

"I got you..." he whispers, stroking my hair as i drift to sleep.
