Dear Hush | Taejin

. e i g h t e e n .

Seokjin played with the hem of his shirt, bored out of his mind.

He was staying home from school for a week to fully recover from the traumatic event.

He thought that the incident would always be on his mind, but honestly it wasn't.

There was something.. A little more distracting that he couldn't stop thinking about.

Taehyung had been growing bored during Seokjin's absence from school, so he took it upon himself to write discouraging notes and drop it off at Seokjin's house every day, making sure Jihyo wasn't there.

Every day Seokjin found that the note would have less and less words on it, and he was wondering if Taehyung was starting to run out of insults to use.

Better cover those hickeys before I take a picture and expose you.

That was the first note given to him, and Seokjin was really scared that he would do it.

However, after a few more notes he realized that Taehyung wasn't actually doing any harm so he let him be.

He even looked forward to seeing Taehyung's notes, seeing his effort to make a good insult.

Some of them didn't even make any sense.

You have no friends.

He counted, and including Taehyung and his mother he already had eight friends.

You have bad taste in clothing.

You suck.

No one likes you.

It seemed that he was really trying to get his point across that he hated Seokjin.

Seokjin couldn't help but feel sad every time he got a note. He knew Taehyung was just acting up like always, but a small part of him questioned whether or not the statements were true.

He wrote in his diary a lot more, the writing filling up more pages then the last days entry.

He was home, and had played video games for a few hours, but he found himself getting bored.

He texted Yoongi, who was working at the bakery.

Seokjin: Yoongi is there anything I can do to help you?

Seokjin: I'm bored

Yoongi: you're bored?

Seokjin: yeah is there anything I can help you with?

Yoongi: ...

Yoongi: well..

Yoongi: there is one thing

Seokjin: tell me and I'll do it :)

Yoongi: there's someone I haven't met in a long time

Yoongi: I want to make sure he is okay but I keep having work get in my way

Seokjin: sure!

Seokjin: just give me their number or something and I can just say you wanted to know if they are okay

Yoongi: it's a little more complicated than that

Yoongi: you need to get to know him

Yoongi: I suppose you could try making friends

Yoongi: he's really easy to make friends with

Seokjin: np I love making new friends

Seokjin: what's his name?

Yoongi: Benjamin

-

After Yoongi had given Seokjin Benjamin's phone number, Seokjin decided to text him right away.

-

Seokjin: hello my name is Kim Seokjin

Seokjin: I'm a friend of Min Yoongi

Seokjin: I heard lots of good things about you so i was wondering if we could meet up

Benjamin: oh hello

Benjamin: that's very kind of you

Benjamin: can you do Starbucks at 8 tomorrow morning?

Seokjin: yes I can!

Benjamin: sweet

Benjamin: any friend of Yoongi's is a friend of mine :)

-

Well, that was easy, Seokjin thought. Yoongi did tell me that he was easy to make friends with..

He spent the rest of the day thinking about how the day would go tomorrow.

-

The next day, Seokjin woke up early to walk to the coffee shop.

He reached Starbucks at 7:45, and decided to play on his phone to wait for the one he was waiting for.

"Scuse me," someone tapped the table, and Seokjin looked up from his phone.

"Jeon gu," he said, surprised as he saw Taehyung's little brother standing there.

" I didn't expect to see you here, " Jeong guy said, chuckling. "Are you waiting for someone?"

Seokjin nodded, and smiled at Jeong gyu, who smiled back.

He heard his name being called for his coffee , and he turned his heel from Seokjin, and before he left he said "good luck, man."

Seokjin looked back down at his phone, and about ten minutes passed when someone say in the chair across from him.

He saw a male that was brunette, and had soft greenish brown eyes, and those eyes eventually stared into Seokjin's.

"I'm assuming you're Kim Seokjin?" He asked, and Seokjin nodded.

Seokjin brought out a lined paper and pencil, and wrote something down, passing it to Benjamin.

Where are you from?

"Oh," Benjamin chuckled. "is it easy to tell that I'm a foreigner? I was born in America, but then I came here."

Seokjin nodded, pulling the paper back to himself.

"My name is Benjamin, but call me Benji, please."

Hey guys, I had time to update but it's almost 3 in the morning so I was too tired to make it a longer chapter. Plus I got the bitch ass flu so I might be able to update more, I might not (I know, I get sick a lot -_-).

Thanks for your support and comments, they really give me life and motivation. ❤
