Don't let me go

'You'll never be as good as Jhope'

'Why do you ever try with that height of yours?'

'Just die already'

'Everyone one in BTS knows that you're not needed'

Jimin stared at the stage with longing, knowing that all he will ever be known for is this persona of an idol that he is forced to wear day-in-day-out with and without his consent. 

It started just after the release of 'Blood, sweat, and tears' but no one not even Mama Jin noticed this dark shadow looming over him. Well, no one would, not with his smiles and relationships with his hyungs being all-good. 

'Jimin-Hyung, let's go' The maknae, Jungkook said with an over-the-top smile plastered across his face. 'Hyung? Are you okay?'

'Shit' Jimin thought. 'I'm fine Jungkook' He said with a fake smile.

The abuse still didn't stop after a week of promoting.

Jimin got into the habit of scratching and fidgeting whenever he could and soon even Namjoon was able to notice it, but because of Jimin's smile always plastered across his face, he never asked him about it.

Clothes were strewn across the floor and blinds were closed, only the light on his phone could be seen in the room.

'Please, no more' Jimin whispered to himself after hate comment after hate comment kept rolling up his screen. 'NO MORE!' He shouted. The phone hit the wall and broke as it fell onto the floor. 

'Jimin?' Yoongi asked, peering his head around the corner of the door frame.

Jimin lifted his head, tears threatening from falling and once again, Jimin covered his face with a smile though his resolve was breaking slowly with each second that Yoongi was staring at him. 

'Jimin? Are you okay?' 

'Yeah, I'm fine, don't worry' Jimin said with a quiver of worry in his voice. 

'Jimin, you're not okay, don't lie, I know that look all too well.'

'Hyung-' Jimin tried to say but was stopped by Yoongi's arms surrounding his waist.

'Don't worry, cry, you're safe now.'

Tears flooded Jimin's eyes and he buried his head within Yoongi's shoulder and let go of all of the frustration. All to know that the safest place for him was within Yoongi's arms.
