Ch25 ~ I'm always here...

(+) OK guys! Get your tissues at the ready! I'm not responsible for the amount of dehydration you experience in the reading of this chapter! 

Jimin walked rigidly into Yoongi's hospital room, holding his breath as he looked helplessly at the person he'd loved for so long without realising it. He closed the door behind him and approached his weakened lover. Yoongi was shivering from the coldness of the room, fearful of what was to come next. Jimin had been the only person to have truly cared for him all this time, when the world seemed as if it was engulfing him in an endless hole helplessness, there was only one person willing to pull him out with a single gesture. Jimin was the light that never faded. The very sun fell to its knees at the sight of him because the black-haired Park shone brighter than even the solar system's core source of warmth... and Yoongi needed no one it seemed, just as long as Jimin was as alive and healthy as he always was... he would make do with the fate he was born with.

Yoongi reached out a feeble hand to his lover, breathing heavily as he looked straight into Jimin's deadpan face. "Jimin..." he whispered.

"Don't speak hyung..." Jimin begged as he took his freezing cold hand and sat on the edge of the bed without saying anything. Yoongi's hands were blue with the lack of blood in his system, his heart was failing. Jimin could only imagine how much pain he was in; his heart must have been beating so hard with worry for what might happen now that they were on the brink of the danger zone.

"Please don't do it." Yoongi whimpered weakly, panting with exhaustion. "I'm not prepared to live in a world..." he took a deep breath, deprived of the air he needed to live. "... a world where you're not present..." he held tighter onto Jimin's small hands and engulfed them in his own. Jimin felt the cold of his body temperature surround the back of his palms and immediately he felt the tears pooling in his eyelids. He had been trying to hold them back since he came into the room, but Yoongi's weakened voice and plummeting body temperature surely knocked him near the edge.

"I'm..." his voice got caught in his throat as he felt the tears trying to climb out of his eyelids. His sanity was beginning to disperse, leaving him with little composure around his White Bachelor Button. "...I'm not going anywhere." He said, after he'd salvaged some of his sanity.

"Liar..." Yoongi cried out, the tears erupting out without any mercy on Jimin's softened heart... Yoongi's heart. "Jimin, I'm not stupid... I know that this is what you were born and set out to do... I know that you wouldn't even hesitate to save me at the cost of your own life but I don't... I-I refuse to live in a universe you're not in!" he bawled out, he sat up and collapsed into Jimin's chest, hoping to God that this was all just a dream going on in his head and not in real life... but of course... their lives were nothing close to rainbows and sunshine.

"Hyung..." he engulfed the older boy into an embrace and burst out himself, a rally of tears escaping his eyelids as he cried. "Hyung I know it's hard... but I'm really not going anywhere..." still he pressed on, holding his lover in his chest and rocking them both back and forth. "I will always be here..." he got one of Yoongi's cold hands and pressed it against the left of his chest. "I will live on in your heart, keeping you alive and always watching over you..." Yoongi shook his head vigorously, trying to silence is long-time companion, but Jimin didn't stop talking, even though the tears that rolled down the expanse of his cheeks. "you may not see me in the way you always have but... but I assure you, you're never alone... I'm always going to be here..."

"No..." Yoongi was shaking like a leaf, Jimin had never seen him so broken and torn up before. "...I refuse Jimin please..." he pleaded, gripping at the sleeves that covered Jimin's muscular arms. Jimin closed his eyes and placed his plump lips against Yoongi's forehead.

"Hyung this is an order I cannot carry out as I did before..." they sat there, forehead to forehead. "I love you more than anything in the world, I hope you know that..."
