Chapter Six: Blind

s i x | B L I N D

Jimin stared down at Yoongi who was clutching onto Taehyung's hand for dear life, almost like the boy could fade out of existence any second. For a reason he didn't know, a pang of jealously shot through his veins.

He looked back at Hoseok practically dragging Jungkook down the hallway, the lamp laying on the floor of the hospital room. Jungkook's face was contorted into an ugly expression, probably angry at Hoseok for taking him from 'Mr. Lamp'.

Jimin turned his attention back at Yoongi. His hand hovered over the older boy's shoulder, wanting to yank the males apart. Someone tapped Jimin's shoulder, it was either Namjoon or Jin, he didn't bother to look. A few seconds later, he glanced over his shoulder, his face drained of emotion.

Jin moved his head in the direction of the door, telling the boy they should probably leave. Reluctantly, Jimin nodded, but not before stealing another glance at Yoongi and Taehyung. He slowly made his way to the door, barely making it out of the room before Namjoon closed the door behind him.

"Wait.. What about Yoongi? Shouldn't he leave to?" The older males shared a look before answering Jimin's question. "You see, Jimin, it's obvious that Yoongi has a special place in his heart for Taehyung. We should leave them alone for now. I'll come back to get them later."

Jimin didn't get it. Special place in his heart? What does that mean? Why would Yoongi care about Taehyung like that, don't they all have a special place in their heart for Taehyung?

He narrowed his eyes until they became narrow slits, "I don't understand, but okay." The pair left without a word, expecting Jimin to walk with them. However, Jimin stayed behind. His subconscious begging him to open the white door and drag the rapper out of the room immediately.

He slowly brought his hand to the silver door knob, pausing when he heard the male's voice through the door.

"You're my little butterfly, okay? You scared me so much, Taehyung. I thought your wings were broken for good." He heard a slight pause, "Don't leave me."

This left Jimin confused, a strange mixture of jealously and curiosity bubbling up in his chest. What was Taehyung to Yoongi?

The boy shrugged it off and walked to the waiting room where the other members were impatiently waiting until morning. He felt a burning behind his eyes, anger most likely. His fists clenched from their place inside his jacket pocket. Why was he jealous? Who was he jealous of? Those thoughts haunted his mind, the question of the closeness of the two boys stood out the most.

He knew both of the boys well, but he has never seen much interaction between the two males aside from small conversation.

Suddenly, the memory of Yoongi telling the group that Taehyung had spoken to him that night surfaced in his mind. Why had Taehyung spoken to him? Why not Jimin or any other member he was close to? Is that what he was jealous of? The fact that he picked Yoongi over him?

Before the boy knew it, he was at the door of the waiting room. He sighed and pushed open the door, a few glances were shot his way but none remained long.

A seat near the door seemed the most desirable to the boy at the moment so he plopped down without much thought, his mind clouded with unanswered questions.

Minutes passed, though he wasn't keeping track of how many. "I'll go get Yoongi. We don't want him to fall asleep beside Taehyung, now do we?"

The image of Yoongi falling asleep with his hands intertwined with Taehyung's set a fire in his heart. "Jimin, you okay? You seem pissed." Jimin looked over at Hoseok, who was beside him.

"Huh? Oh... Yeah. Just stressed about all of this." He nodded slowly, before putting in his earbuds again and turning up the volume on his music.

Jimin turned his attention to his hands in his lap. He imagined running his fingertips up and down Taehyung's arm, comforting the boy. He tried to imagine how soft the boy's skin was, how it would feel under his own.

Only a few minutes had passed since Jin left yet there he was, with Yoongi close behind. Jimin studied the boy, his puffy red eyes catching his attention first. Had he been crying? He noticed how his hand was shaking slightly at his side, the hand that held Taehyung's.

Jimin shrugged it off as nothing important and closed his eyes, wishing that sleep would hurry up and take him. Though, sleep took longer than he wished it would. He opened his eyes and looked around at the other members.

Namjoon and Jin were asleep, Jin's head resting on the other's shoulder. Jungkook was holding a chocolate brown teddy bear close to his chest, murmuring the word 'lamp' over and over. Hoseok was asleep, his hood pulled over his head.

Yoongi was surprisingly wide awake, staring off into space with a blank look on his face. Suddenly, he stood up and left the room, not paying attention to Jimin. The younger furrowed his eyebrows in confusion and ran after the older.

"Yah! Yoongi-hyung!"

Yoongi froze, he was right in front of the door leading to Taehyung's room. He clicked his tongue, cursing under his breath. "Oh, Jimin. What do you need? I didn't know you were up."

The blonde turned around, a forced smile twitching on to his lips. The younger stared blankly at him before taking a deep breath and asking the question he's been asking himself the past few hours.

"What are you to Taehyung?"
