It had been two weeks and Jimin was loosing his mind.

The endless cycle of hopelessness became Jimin's mundane routine.

Wake up, work, wait for Yoongi. Wake up, work, wait for Yoongi.

Everyday the brunette would settle himself outside Yoongi's front door. He would patiently wait for his lover's return but the blonde never appeared.

The passing of days had depleted his motivation. Yoongi had taken refuge in Namjoon's living room couch. Their whole interaction seemed like ages ago. Min arrived in the middle of the night begging for a place to stay. With those tear stained eyes and wavering posture Namjoon couldn't turn his companion away. Namjoon was respectable enough not to pry into his affairs so he offered his home with out judgment or question. If only Namjoon knew that Min would overstay his welcome.

Yoongi starred aimlessly at the tv screen, the animated pictures flashing vivid colors on his motionless eyes. His phone vibrated to alert him of Jimin's text but he let the phone buzz until it died into a comfortable silence.

Sunny and Namjoon observed the broken soul from the hallway. Namjoon's hand was intertwined with his wife's "Will he talk to you?" she questioned worryingly. The couple continued to whisper "Every time I try, he just ignores me, so I've left him alone" Namjoon had an impressive skill in technology and philosophy  but people were too complicated for his intelligence.

Sunhee sighed "Well he's been here for two weeks and our couch now reeks off depressed old man, he's got to get over whatever this is and move on preferably off our couch!" she said as she walked into the room. She set next to Yoongi to get his attention but Min kept his focus on the dancing shapes on the TV screen. "Min Yoongi...You need to tell us what's wrong so we can help you" she approached the situation calmly. Yoongi was unresponsive, instead he increased the volume to tune the woman out. Pissed, the woman snatched the remote to turn off the television but Yoongi still paid no heed to her. "Min Yoongi, if you don't tell me what's wrong I swear I'm going to destroy everything in your apartment"

Min shrugged leisurely "I hated that apartment anyway" he responded dully.

"I'll tell Namjoon that one time you were so drunk you pissed all over his Ryan the bear collection."

This instantly caught the blonde's attention "You wouldn't dare?!"

"Give me a reason to make you look stupid!"

Yoongi gave into the woman's demands, he had no strength to fight against the interrogation. "It's about Jimin" Yoongi began.  "Oh!? You mean that cute little cinnamon roll that is, unfortunately, dating a rude grandpa like you who ruins people's couches with your funk smell?" she illustrated and Yoongi groaned "Yes, that Jimin."

She waited patiently for him to continue. For the first time in two weeks he rearranged his sluggish position "Jimin kissed his ex."

Sunhee was undaunted by the confession "......And?" Yoongi looked solemnly to her "He called his name during sex" he finished and the woman nodded slightly "Ooohh".

Min scoffed "His ex is fucking insane! He's controlling, possessive, rude and arrogant. He tosses Jimin around like he's a rag doll and treats him like he owns him" the memory sent his heart a blaze.

Sunhee's expression stayed unnervingly emotionless "Sounds like Jimin was in an abusive relationship with this man" she stated and Yoongi finally met her gaze.

"Yeah, that's why I'm so pissed at him."

"How long have the two known each other?" She questioned "I don't know, for a long time I guess." Sunhee 's eyes began to narrow "Yoongi, did you ask Jimin if Taemin initiated the kiss or did you let him explain what happened?" the woman quarried and Yoongi shook his head.

Ms.Kim leaped to her feet and had Yoongi up on his in seconds. She fisted her hands into Yoongi's shirt to haul him forward, now the two were eye to eye. Min's initial instinct was to seek help "Min Yoongi!! You're a fucking selfish bastard" she barked and Yoongi looked to her husband watching silently in the hall.

"Namjoon!! Get your crazy pregnant wife off me!!" he yelped but the violet haired gentleman didn't budge "I can't!" he whimpered back.

"Why not?!"

"I'm scared to"

"YOU FUCKEN WHIMP!!!"

"Sorry Yoongi I can't do shit when she's like this" Namjoon turned away "Have fun teaching him a lesson baby" he called to his wife before exiting the room. Yoongi brought his eyes back to the ferocioius female.

"Min fucking Yoongi. Your boyfriend just left an abusive relationship where he was being emotionally and physically manipulated. You think just because you come along and take him away from that he's just going to somehow completely forget about his previous lover?!" she barked and Yoongi withered under the intensive glare

"Based on what you told me I'm going to bet Taemin probably forced him into the kiss and if Jimin kissed him back, it's because of the years of mental manipulation and conditioning. Your boyfriend needs you because he's vulnerable, confused and destroying himself with guilt."

"You left him alone with the demons in his head and you left without him explaining himself. Jimin is going to miss him, no matter how much you love him but that doesn't mean he's not loyal to you. It means he needs you to protect him from himself and his old habits."

Disgusted, the woman finally released the blonde back to the ground, Yoongi leaped backward "Jimin is the victim and you blamed him without giving him a chance to explain" she finished. Min was silent, his eyes widening as realization dawned on him "Shit..." The blonde put his shoes on and headed to the door, he stopped to look back "Thanks Sunhee" he said with a smile.

"Leave my house and make that beautiful angel boy happy again!!!"


As soon as Sunhee heard the front door slam shut Namjoon poked his head back into the room. "Did everything work out?" he asked. "Yeah, but we are going to need to burn this couch now" she sighed in frustration.

With that, Min headed back to his apartment he had a feeling Jimin would be waiting for him.
