it was dark. too dark for jimin's liking. the only light came from the yellow streetlights which were dim against the black of the sky. he just wanted to be home.

jimin was lost in his own city. not that he would admit that to himself, but he had drifted away from his usual route home from work. praying he had battery left, he pulled out his phone quickly. google maps would be his rescue.

he tapped in his home address and immediately the screen told him he wasn't that far away from his usual route, however it recommended he go a different, quicker way.

realising it was a lot later than he had thought, jimin immediately decided to take the quicker route and followed the directions on the bright screen. he cursed taehyung for suggesting he should work overtime, he wouldn't be doing that any time soon for sure.

it was raining now, and he turned a corner onto a narrow street that he didn't recognise. not that he cared, he was just desperate to be home.

a figure in a hoodie passed him quickly, shoving past him rudely, hood up and head down. jimin frowned. this was the first person he had seen out at this time and he didn't appreciate the strangers rudeness.

he continued walking, until a loud noise and a faint cry made him freeze in his steps. that wasn't... a gunshot, right? it-it couldn't have been. nothing like this ever happened in his hometown.

he turned slowly, cautiously.

the guy with the hoodie now lay limp on the damp concrete.

an/ the entire time i was writing this i could just hear the "oh my god hes fucking dead" vine repeat in my head.
