Namjin; Together Forever

Chapter 25 - Leaving

"I got the place!"
"It's in Busan..."
"Omma it's okay, really"

Jin cast his mind back to the conversation he had had with his mother after that fateful phone call. Busan was almost 200 miles away from Gwacheon where him and Namjoon were from, but the managers had decided that the dorm had to be stationed there since one of their main buildings was in that area, plus there were some people wanting training over there. So, here the boys were packing their things. Well actually, just Namjoon.

Jin had already packed his a couple days earlier, being organised and what not, Namjoon had called him over for help since he had no clue. The pair knew Hoseok was definitely going to be in the dorm when they got there, as well as one other rapper, but several of the people that had been auditioned and given places had either dropped out last minute or went to other companies. So, they really weren't sure who else was going to be joining them, as of current they didn't know any definite vocalists which concerned Namjoon, wasn't that quite an important role?

"Come on, pack!" Jin said, throwing a slipper at Namjoon to bring him out of overthinking. "I don't know what else, I already put in some clothes". Jin took one glimpse in the suitcase, "Are you planning on not wearing underwear this whole time? Come on we don't know how long we'll be there, pack more" Namjoon moaned, standing up to look into his wardrobe.

After rummaging around for a bit, he had packed most of his clothes - at least the ones he actually wore on a regular basis. Jin had helped gather up some of the other stuff he regularly used, like his toiletries, some books, writing stuff and such.

"Could you pass me that too?" Namjoon asked, pointing to the Ryan bear (from kakao friends). Jin laughed slightly, throwing the toy at him, "Yah, be careful that's my special one!" Namjoon said, cradling the doll as if it were a child, "You have like loads, why do you even like it so much?" "Why do you like Mario so much?" Namjoon shot back with a serious face, making them both laugh. "Well I had to pack all of my figurines of course" he said, "The ones I got you?" Namjoon grinned, remembering how surprised Jin was when he had open them on his birthday many years ago. "Don't tease me, I'll leave you alone about the bear okay?" Namjoon shook his head whilst chuckling, not so carefully placing more stuff into the bags.

"How many did you pack anyway?" Namjoon asked, thinking he wouldn't be able to take care of all the bags he had, "I have one big bag for all my clothes and shoes, and another bag for my personal stuff" Jin replied. "How did you fit all your stuff in two bags?! I don't think I'll be able to manage this much stuff" "Then don't take so much, only take what's essential, I don't have much anyway so" Namjoon tried to get rid of some stuff, but "you never know when I might need this old gameboy, incase I get bored and they have no video games". Jin couldn't be bothered to talk sense into him and so just agreed in the end.

The bags were squished into Namjoon's mother's car, she figured taking the train would be a bit risky considering their bags, and Jin's mother's car was a little small. "It's fine honest, I don't mind" she reassured her for the 10th time, giving her a hug before going to start up the car. Jin came running over to his mother, knowing already she'd be crying so simply hugged her tight. "Have fun Omma, remember there's so much you can do now! Don't let me hold you back, I'll be fine and I'll call you as much as possible" she nodded, kissing his cheeks. "I love you Jinnie, keep safe please" "I will, I love you too" he then left, walking over to say goodbye to Namjoon's dad and little Minnie, her clinging to his leg.

"Bye bye Jinnie oppa, I love you, sorry you have to go live with my brother..." Jin laughed, stroking her hair and pecking the little girl on the forehead, "Don't be so mean to your brother, he could be rich one day! But I'll miss you Minnie, I love you too" she hugged him, then turned away blushing. Namjoon was saying bye to his father, patting him on the back before they finally got in the car.

The drive seemed to take forever, Jin laying his head slightly on Namjoon's shoulder, he could tell the younger was a bit more upset than him. Namjoon had it rough when his father had gone away on business, so having to leave him when he hadn't been home for that long made him really upset. "You really think Minnie hates me?" he asked, looking down at Jin while stroking his arm. "Of course not, you're just her older brother of course she'll wind you up" "You know, she has a massive crush on you" Namjoon said making Jin laugh, "Bet she must've been crushed when she found out I'm dating you, right?" "I don't know, she just went all quiet" Jin laughed, laying further back onto Namjoon.

They eventually arrived, seeing Hoseok had just arrived as well, waving them over from outside his parents car. "We better go take our stuff up... Thank you for driving us Omma, I'll miss you" Namjoon said, leaning over from the backseat to hug her, kissing her cheek. "Go on before it gets too dark boys, keep safe and well, I love you too Joonie, we'll write often" Namjoon nodded, Jin saying his goodbye before they got their bags. Hoseok had taken his bags inside already while they were talking and unloading the car, so he came over and offered to carry some bags.

"So you guys are like good friends then?" he asked, "Yeh we're pretty good friends" Namjoon said flashing his dimples. However, Jin felt a pang of sadness in him at the realisation that he would only be referred to as a friend now, he'd have to ask Namjoon about that later.

"So guys, we only have 2 rooms, I already put my stuff in the other one so for now you two can stay in here if you want" Namjoon nodded, he was slightly scared even if he didn't admit it, so he was happy to hear that he'd be able to room with Jin. "Oh and by the way, that other rapper is already in the other room uh... Yoon something I think, we'll meet him in the morning, he's flat out" Hoseok said doing dramatic sleeping expressions making Jin laugh.

"Thanks Hoseok for helping, talk in the morning" Hoseok winked, putting his thumbs up as he left the room. Jin decided it was too late to talk about their boyfriend situation and so just got dressed for bed, pulling the covers up about him. Half asleep however, he felt a Namjoon slip into his bed, clinging onto his broad back. He didn't say anything, instead just held him back, smiling as they fell asleep together.

A/N - Not all of this is accurate, both of them didn't come from Gwacheon and their first dorm probably wasn't in Busan in just going off of what information I know so don't hate me please if stuff is wrong or inaccurate 😅
