Almost like back then (JJK fanfic)

Chapter 31

***A few weeks later***

~Grace POV~

"Come on, Min Lee. Open the door, please." No one answers me and I sit down on the ground. I sigh and say, "Min Lee, if you don't open the door, I'll call Min Seok or Minho and have them come over." It always worked because she didn't want to upset or disturb them. But since she broke up with Jungkook, she doesn't care anymore. She doesn't care anymore. She already went through the first phase where she drank and partied 24/7. That phase lasted for two weeks and then it ended.

Now she's in the second phase where she comes out of her room once a day, has a little snack, takes alcohol with her, and then locks herself in her room again. She's on a break from college, so she has a lot of free time. Every day or every other day, one of her friends comes by hoping to help or talk to her, but no one has been able to.

***A few days later***

~Min Lee POV~

I get up from the bedroom floor, unlock the bedroom door, and leave the room. I look toward the living room and head to the kitchen for some alcohol when I notice that it's not just Grace on the couch anymore. There are also BLACKPINK and BTS people there. I ignore them and head to the kitchen. After I grab the bottle, I'm about to go back into the bedroom, but Jimin stops in front of me and says, "Oh hell nah. You're not going there anymore." I shrug, turn around, go in, and lock myself in the bathroom.

I get in the shower and start drinking. I wish it would stop hurting so terribly. Jimin knocks on the door and says, "Min Lee, please... open the door." I turn the water on full blast and say, "Go away. I'm in the shower." Jimin sighs and steps away from the door. I hear whispering outside. Grace comes over and knocks. I don't answer, so I hear Grace say to someone, "Okay, do it."I close my eyes and take a huge gulp, downing half the bottle in a matter of seconds. I put the bottle down and then I see Jimin kick the door open. He sees me and looks at the others, telling them not to come in. He comes over and sits next to me, letting the water wet him.

He takes the bottle from me and takes a sip. Then he puts the bottle aside and turns to face me. I look at him and he pulls me into a hug. He wraps his arms around me and hugs me tightly. A few tears come to my eyes and I start to cry harder now. He gently strokes my back and says, "Let it all out."

I start to cry more, giving in to the hug. This is the first time I've cried since my second phase started. Jimin quickly turns off the water and then hugs me again. After a few minutes, he stands up and offers me his hand. I take it and he pulls me up. Grace picks me up and wraps me in a towel.

She quickly drags me into the bedroom and changes me, then wraps me in a robe and blanket and drags me into the living room. She sits me on the couch next to Jimin and I lie down with my head in Jimin's lap. She covers me with a blanket and says, "Sleep, honey. When you wake up, we'll be right here." I close my eyes and fall asleep within seconds. But I feel someone lift my legs and put them in their lap.

~Jimin POV~

Grace goes to the kitchen and makes herself some tea, but Taehyung and I are both sitting on the couch. We look at Min Lee and I say, "Oh my god. It's so hard for me to see her like this, so painful." Taehyung nods and says, "Yeah, I know. My heart is breaking." Then I look at Taehyung and ask, "How's Jungkook?? I haven't spoken to him in a while." Taehyung nods, sighs, and says, "He's doing okay. He seems like he's mostly over it, but then again, you know how he is. He hides his true emotions and pain most of the time."

I nod and then look at Min Lee again. I push strands of hair out of her face and pat her head. Then I say, "I wish you could get over him as soon as possible." Taehyung nods. And then soon Taehyung and I fall asleep too.
