Why Am I Like This

Chapter 12

It was a Monday night, almost a week since Jimin had met the group of boys. Jimin was lying comfortably in his bed scrolling through the photos in his, usually empty, camera roll. The camera roll was filled with their memories from the last week. He'd had so much fun with them, he'd managed to forget about his problems, but you can only run from your problems so long. Jimin wanted to believe that the group of boys will stay together, that they will stay with him. However he couldn't stop himself from thinking, that like everyone else he trusted, they would leave him too.

---(flashback)---

Wednesday:

Yoongi rang the bell to Jimin's apartment collecting him with Jin and Namjoon in tow, they all sat together for lunch and gathered by the gate before walking their separate ways. This was soon to become a usual routine but today they wanted to take Jimin out.

Jimin found himself being dragged along streets and small alleyways by Taehyung until they stopped at a small park surrounded by a metal multi-coloured fence. It consisted of two swings, a children's play frame and a trampoline built into the ground. Jimin saw Taehyung, Jungkook and Hoseok give each other a look before racing towards the swings jumping over the fence. Jungkook beat the two of them, grabbing both swings in a strong hold before turning in Jimin's direction and yelling "Yo, Jimin, do you want one?"

Jungkook shook one of the swings and Jimin laughed quietly as he called back, "No thank you." Taehyung instantly ran towards Jungkook and took the swing from him smiling widely before screaming at full volume.

Yoongi shook his head as he nudged Jimin, "Hey, no need to be so formal; like this, HEY TAEHYUNG! SHUT IT YOU LITTLE SHIT!"

"NEVERRRRR!" he screamed back.

Yoongi laughed before putting an arm around Jimin's shoulders and guiding him towards the gate of the park.

Jimin, Yoongi, Namjoon and Jin sat on the tarmac by the swings "So? How do you like our park?" Namjoon asked.

"Yours?" Jimin replied.

"Nobody ever comes here so we claimed it as ours." Jin smiled giving off a motherly aura.

Hoseok Jumped up and down on the trampoline making various shapes with his body "JiminJiminJiminJimin." He called over and over

"Give the boy a second to answer Hobi." Jin tutted.

"Jimin come jump with me." Hoseok whined.

Jimin looked unsure as he looked towards Yoongi. Yoongi gave him a small push forward and mouthed the words go. Jimin stood and walked over to Hoseok. Hoseok stopped jumping and grabbed Jimin's hands tightly, pulling him roughly onto the trampoline.

Yoongi raised his voice out of concern, "Yah! Be careful!" Jin and Namjoon gave each other a look raising an eyebrow before staring in surprise at Yoongi, because when was the last time Yoongi actually cared about the welfare of any of the others. What? Yoongi mouthed.

Hoseok smiled sheepishly before loosening his grip on Jimin's hands. Hoseok jumped unexpectedly landing heavily, pushing Jimin into the air. After the initial shock of being hurtled through the air Jimin erupted into a fit of giggles as he and Hoseok continued jumping.

Yoongi watched Jimin smile grow larger and larger, he listened to the way Jimin would giggle every time he jumped just a little too high and he watched as the boy run towards him smiling widely. "Suga, Suga, come play." Jimin begged as he grabbed Yoongi's hand to pull him up.

"Do I have to?" Yoongi groaned.

Jimin pouted, "Pleaseee." Yoongi rolled his eyes as he pulled on Jimin's hand signalling him to help him up. Jimin made sure not to grip too tightly to avoid hurting Yoongi's knuckles, Yoongi didn't have the full bandages on anymore but he still had a couple plasters covering some of the cuts.
