Namjoon's Point of View

After we got home Jin-hyung left and has been avoiding me ever since. Even at school. I can't stand it anymore. It's been going on for a week now. I'm going to ask him what the hell is wrong with him.

After I made my mind up about it, I stopped him from going into the cafeteria so that I could talk to him.

"Jinnie, what's wrong? Why have you been avoiding me?" I asked, pulling him over to the side.

"It's nothing Namjoon." he hasn't used my full name since we started dating.

"Now I know there's something wrong. Baby, you never call me by my full name." I was going to figure this out.

"Don't call me baby. We're not together." he snapped.

"What?! When did this happen? Jin-hyung is this why you've been avoiding me. Was this a subtle way to break up with me?" I asked.

"Me break up with you? Try the other way around." he was no longer looking at me.

"Seokjin why in the world would I break up with the greatest guy in the world. I never did that. I don't know what happened, but I never broke up with you. I love you, and I always will." I said, gently grabbing his jaw and turning his head back towards me.

"After you went missing I got a call from your phone and it was your voice. I'd know it anywhere, a-and y-you broke up with m-me. I was he-heart broken, then Jungkook c-call me over to your h-house a-and I was s-so pissed off. But I helped anyway because... because I didn't wa-want you to get hurt." he explain, crying.

"Baby you know that phone calls are always recorded. That must've been the recording from when I broke up with my last boyfriend. Baby, I would never break up with the man I'm in love with." I said, pulling him close to me. He looked up at me and I closed the distance and gave him a soft kiss on the lips.

"Now, why don't we go meet the others at the lunch table now?" I asked, pulling him into the cafeteria. We got to the table and everyone cheered that we were back together. Although technically I guess we're not, because to Jin we broke up and one of us needs to ask the other again. But I got that covered later.

"What do you want for lunch, Jinnie?" I asked, standing back up.

"Nothing it's okay. I'll eat later." he replied.

"Jinnie, why are you not eating?"

"It's just that I can't eat after I've been crying or if I'm upset. It won't stay down if I try to." he explained.

"Ok, but you're eating later." I said and left to get my lunch.

"Yeah. Ok." he said. Yoongi told me that he's been having trouble eating ever since I 'broke up' with him. I'm worried about him. From what I've been told he's only eaten about three times all week and it's only been when Yoongi or Hoseok forced him to.

I waited in line for lunch. When I got it, I went back to the table and sat next to Jin-hyung. I put an arm around his waist and he visibly flinched. After lunch I pulled him away from the others.

"Seokjin, I need to ask you something." I said.

"Okay, shoot." he said.

"Did something happen when I was gone or sometime this week while you've been avoiding me?" I asked, looking him straight in the eyes.

"Why would you think something has happened?" he asked, avoiding the question.

"The fact that I've seen you flinch every time I've touched you today and that you seem scared. I've been noticing the panic all week but now that we're talking again, it's even more noticeable." I said.

"It's nothing, Don't worry about it."

"But I have to worry about it. I'm worried about you. Jin I love you and I'm scared that something happened while I was away from you and I need to know what happened." I said, slowly breaking down.

"It really is nothing. Just some ghosts from the past have come back to haunt me." he said, still avoiding telling me what actually happened.

"Jin, do you mean an actual ghost? Or something else? Please you have to tell me. If something happened I don't know what to do." I begged him to tell me.

"Namjoon, even if I tell you what happened, there's nothing you can do."

"Please, Seokjin, please. Just tell me so I can stop worrying at least. So I know what has happened and I don't have to be scared. I'm scared for you and for us, and for what'll become of us." I begged.

"Namjoon, it-it's my ex. While you were away, he... he." he stopped and started to break down.

"He what?" I asked, getting closer to him.

"He... he had his way with m-me." he said, sounding ashamed. "I tried to stop him. I told him I was with someone and that I love someone else now, but he wouldn't hear of it. I swear I'm just cautious now, around people, because of that." he said.

I turned around and punched a locked, putting a reasonable sized dent in it. 'If only I had been here with him to keep him safe, none of this would've happened. We'd be happy and together without him scared I would do something to him the entire time.' I thought to myself.

"This is why I didn't want to tell you. I knew you'd be upset and blame yourself. It's not your fault." he said, putting a hand on my shoulder.

"But it is my fault. If I had been here. If I had been with you, then none of this would've happened. We wouldn't have to worry about anything. We'd be happy, but now you're scared of me. I don't want you to be scared of me. Please, Jin, you can trust me. You know me, I won't do anything unless you wanted to. Please don't push me away and be scared to me. I'll let you call all the shots. Just please trust me." I said, starting to break down even further.

He walked around me and pulled me into a hug, putting his head against my chest.I put my head on top of his. "Joonie, I'll trust you. I promise I will. It'll just take me a little time. Ok? Remember when I said I told him I love someone else?"

"Yeah." I sniffled.

"I was talking about you. Joonie, I love you so much. And we'll get back to how we were. You just have to give me a little time. Ok?" I asked, pulling away slightly to look at me.

"Ok. I love you too, Jinnie." I said, staying right where I was. I was struggling to not kiss him when he pushed him lips to mine. We moved in sync, but the only thing I did besides kiss him back was bring my arms around his waist.

"Thank you. You just proved that I can trust you. Now let's get to class." he said when we pulled away for air.

"How did I prove anything?"

"By not doing anything. Just like you said you would." he smiled at me, then walked towards his class.

"I'll see you later." I shouted down the hallway and went to my class.
