originally, when the three words left jimins mouth, he was worried that everything would change between them. that maybe everything would be awkward and tense. but it was quite the opposite, actually. because he then realized, that they had always acted as if they loved each other, it just took a little while for either of them to voice the actual words. but now, with the words out in the open between them, it felt like they had been doing this the whole time.
everything had been going amazingly well, up until around 10;30pm. yoongi had to run over to his apartment next door to shower really quickly, because jimins shower was currently under maintenance. so, as he did so, jimin fell into a deep slumber. but, because park jimin is park jimin, his sleep is anything but calm. twenty minutes later, a damp haired yoongi walked in to see jimin thrashing around on the couch, hand dangerously close to the lamp on the table beside him. "shit-" yoongi cursed under his breath as he rushed over to jimin, trying to figure out the best tactic to pin his flailing limbs down.
before he could act on his thoughts, though, the shattering noise of the glass lamp hitting the floor was heard. and all in one big rush of movements, jimins forehead was cut open and yoongi was desperately clasping his phone in shaky hands in order to call for some help because he was sure jimin would need stitches or something. "jimin baby, im here okay, dont move." yoongi said sternly once jimins eyes had shot open. jimin whimpered in pain, and yoongis heart wrenched. this is all my fault, he thought to himself.
he cradled jimins head in his lap, towel pressed to his forehead to slow the flow of blood. once they had eventually made it to the emergency room and jimin got a total of five stitches on the skin right below his hairline on his forehead, yoongi sat beside him with his head in his hands. "babe, you okay?" jimin asked, hand stretching out to gently run through yoongis hair. yoongi let out a frustrated sigh, despite the fluttering in his stomach at the new pet name. "this- this is all my fault. im so sorry, jiminie." he said apologetically, shaking his head in disapproval towards himself.
jimin laughed then, making yoongi look up at him in confusion. "shut it, yoongi. its never your fault, okay? its not even mine." jimin said sternly to him, eyes directed to yoongi. that was the first time ever, that jimin hadnt blamed himself for these incidents. it made yoongis heart swell in joy. "oh, yeah, i forgot to let you know," yoongi started, "the doctors insisted on me calling your- uh- mother. so, shes on her way." yoongi explained cautiously, making sure to point out that he was forced into the action. jimin let out an unnecessarily loud sigh, "here we go again." he muttered.
"jimin!" his mother hollered out as he walked into the room, eyes landing on the two boys. she then proceeded to make her way over to her son, to shove a pill bottle in his hands. "just take it, please. i know you probably dont trust me, but a friend of mine who works as a doctor said that this might just be what we've been looking for to prevent your night terrors." his mother explained genuinely. jimin eyed his mother and the pills warily, before turning to yoongi. "babe, would you please get me some water? sorry for the inconvenience." he sweetly asked his now boyfriend. yoongi nodded quickly, "of course." he responded before rushing out.
not even a minute later, yoongi walked back in, plastic cup in hand. "here you are, jiminie." yoongi said as he gently placed the cup into jimins outstretched hand. jimin sighed before plopping the pill onto his tongue, and swallowing it along with a large gulp of water to help it down his throat. "lets see how this goes." jimin mumbles to yoongi as they sign the papers to have him released from the emergency room. as jimin waits by the door, the nurse goes over all the maintenance rules of his stitches with yoongi, as he is the closest person to him.
"ready?" yoongi smiled as he finally walked over to jimin. "yea-" jimin started to say but stopped abruptly when a wave of dizziness hit him, causing him to latch on to yoongis arm in a desperate attempt to keep upright. "are you okay?" yoongi asked worriedly. jimin just nodded and inhaled slowly, dizziness now gone. "yeah, must be a side effect or something." he muttered as they walked out.
