꧁Don't Tell Me Bye꧂ bts fanfiction

CHAPTER THREE

It was finally Friday. This past week flew by with Demi sometimes hanging around with either Jungkook or Jimin, and even on one occasion Namjoon. She had gotten to know each of them a little more and realized these boys were extremely talented. Jungkook and Jimin both skilled singers and dancers and Namjoon an exceptional rapper, hence the nickname Rapmon or Rapmonster. Today she was mostly focused on making sure her living space was tidy since school would start in a few days. As Demi finished cleaning the last few things up she heard a gentle knock on the door. Smiling she walked to it and opened it up. Namjoon stood there with a small smile on his face.
"Hey Demi! I was wondering if you wanted to hang out today with the boys. We want to introduce you to the other guys too." She smiled. That would be nice. "Yeah let me just get ready. Uh, come in." Demi ushered him in and told him to make himself at home as she retrieved an outfit and rushed to the bathroom. She changed into a comfy turtleneck and some ripped jeans quickly, not wanting Namjoon to wait too long. She checked her reflection in the mirror and let her long way black hair rest on her shoulders. Once she was done she exited and grabbed her new purse, which she bought this past week. Demi was about to call for Namjoon when she glanced at his unmoving form on the sofa. She stifled a laugh. His long legs were currently stretched out as his head was leaning back, his mouth completely open. The funniest part was the loud uneven snores that erupted with every breath he released. She was about to gently wake him up when out of nowhere the door bell seemed to have a spaz attack. Immediately Demi knew who was on the other side of the door. Namjoon woke up with an alarmed expression on his face. She laughed out loud this time as she swung the door open. There stood Jungkook rubbing the back of his neck as Jimin glared at him.
"Sorry Demi, you already know how excited he gets to see you." Jimin smirked as Jungkook blushed and shoved his elbow in Jimins ribs. They huffed at each other as she shook her head. "Well let's go before you two kill each other and Namjoon passes out on the sofa again!" The boys agreed and they all were on the elevator in a few seconds. What surprised Demi was instead of going to the lower level Namjoon pressed the button for the top level... Weird. Once they reached the tenth floor Demi gave Jimin a questioning glance. In return he just smiled and pushed her into the small dark hallway. At the end of the hallway was a simple metal door with a sign that read 'no entry'. She furrowed her eyebrows as Namjoon pulled out a pair of keys and swiftly unlocked the door. As soon as he swung the door open Demi could make out the sounds of conversation and what seemed to be the crackle of fire. Making their way up the steps she soon was able to see where the noises were coming from. They were on the roof of the apartment complex. Plants surrounded the edge of the roof and in the center a few outdoor sofas were placed around a fire pit. At the moment four other boys sat there, chatting amongst themselves. Suddenly one of them noticed them approaching and lept up to embrace Jimin in a warm embrace will ruffling his orangish hair.
"Hyung! Not the hair!" The other boy only chuckled in response, his sleek black hair bobbing up and down with the action. The other three boys approached casually and greeted the new arrivals. They introduced themselves and Demi introduced herself as well. She now knew that the boy who embraced Jimin was named Hoseok, the boy with bright mint green hair was Yoongi, another boy with a wide rectangular smile was Taehyung, and lastly the oldest of them was a quiet handsome boy named Jin. He was the most reserved out of all of the boys but he seemed like really cared about all of them, yet something felt off about him... Something almost familiar. Brushing it off Demi joined the boys gathered around the fire. Each of the boys seemed extremely close, yet certain boys together were more like brothers than the rest. Namjoon and Taehyung were always causing mischief together, grinning whenever they were caught in the act. Yoongi and Jungkook were attached by the hip, some moments laughing together other moments whispering in hushed tones. Jimin and Hoseok seemed lost in the same world, sometimes resting on each other staring off into the distance. In other moments they would joke and laugh. Now the only one who seemed a but cold and closed off was Jin. Some moments he would look over the boys, a small smile gracing his lips.

It was late at night and everyone was chatting comfortably. The boys leaned on each other, eyes all gazing into the glowing embers of the fire. As Demi's eyes scanned the sofas she realized one boy was missing... Close to the edge of the building stood Jin. His gaze set on the city lights. She rose from her seat and made her way over to him.

The world below Jin seemed to never stop, it seemed to never end. Cars and taxis flew by, people walked side by side. Each of them carried stories and lives of their own. He rubbed his clammy palms together, if only life was just a simple thing. But, it wasn't. Glancing back at the huddled group of boys he could see the laughs they shared, a moment of euphoria in a sea of hardship. With that one glance he could notice that the girl, Demi, was not amongst them.
"Hey... " Jin jumped at the sudden words. Turning he could see her well, even in the dark of night. She smiled softly.
"Mianhae. I didnt mean to startle you."
"Oh um no worries. I wasnt startled just-uh..." She chuckled. Jin sighed rubbing his neck. The boys had always mentioned that he was extremely awkward, he admitted they were slightly correct. Demi began to ask him questions. He answered, then returning her question with one of his own. His apprehension dissipated and they chatted a bit. About their lives, why she moved to Korea, she even mentioned her family. After all this Jin couldn't help but wonder, is this really the girl that I stole the purple bag from?
They were currently just gazing at the bright lights of Seoul, a comfortable silence between the two. She broke that silence.
"Jin?"
"Hmmm?" He gave her a sideways glance.
"What about your family?" His heart skipped a beat and her noticed her eyes widen a bit.
"Nevermind I shouldn't have as-"
"You're fine... No one has ever asked before... " Jin gave a tired sigh.

Flashback...
My sixteenth birthday had finally come. My parents had agreed that today was a day to be spent among them and the boys. I remember us getting ready to meet everyone at my favorite restaurant, since I loved to eat. It was a happy day. We joked in the car, laughing and reminiscing. We had dinner and I spent the day with my family and my six best friends. Life was good. It was finally time to go home. We parted ways from the restaurant and made the short trip home. The car was silent, my dad focusing on the road, my mom resting her eyes, and I thinking about today. Suddenly I saw something. Two bright lights heading straight at us. I shouted out as my dad tried to swerve in time. No matter how much my dad forced the car off the road. No matter how loud I shouted. We got hit and I got sucked into darkness.

I remember the funeral. I walked out of the accident with a few fractures and scrapes, my parents weren't so lucky. I was the last one infront of the fresh graves. Letting a few last tears fall I set down the last of the white lilies, my mother's favorites.

End Flashback...

"Namjoon let me stay the next three years with him and his mom. After that he got accepted into school over here on a few scholarships. Now, a couple years later and all of the others followed us here." Jin expected for some sort of pity or something that he was awfully used to, he got none of it. Instead she nodded and said something he wasn't expecting.

"Jin I don't think you know how strong you are... Next time before you take, ask. I would be happy to help." With one last smile she turned on her heel and took a seat next to Jimin.
