Jimin

"Hey, what's wrong?" I shook my head, not looking up at Hoseok. "Are you crying?" "No." I heard him sit in the empty space next to me. "Jimin." His hand made it's way under my chin. He lifted it up, making me look at him. "What's wrong?" Hoseok's hand began to slightly shake as he wiped my cheeks with his sleeve. "Gosh, Jimin. Seeing you sad makes me sad."

He got up from the bench and pulled me with him. "I don't like seeing you sad Jiminie." He brought me into the bathrooms and sat me on top of the sink counter. I watched as he waved his hand in front of the towel dispenser. I looked down at my hands as I listened to him shuffle around and turn on the sink. "You don't have to tell me what's wrong, but at least let me help you."

He lifted my chin up so I could look at him. He slowly dabbed the towel under my eyes. I winced and pushed him away. "It's cold!" "It'll help with the puffiness Jiminie." I let him finish dabbing the towel under my eyes. Even if it was cold.

"There." He threw the napkin away and walked back to me. "You don't look like you were just crying." I grabbed onto his neck and pulled him into a hug. "Why do you care about me so much?" I felt his hands rub my back. "Because, I just do Jimin. You're, my friend. A very close one."

"Is this making you feel better?" I tried kicking Hoseok away from me as he tickled my stomach. "No! Hoseok stop!" I could feel tears escaping as I laughed. He finally showed some sympathy and stopped.

"Did it work?" I wiped my cheeks and nodded. "If saying yes will make you stop, then yes." He smiled back at me. "I didn't know you were so ticklish." "That's because I didn't want you to know."

I sat up and looked at him. "Well now I know." He poked my stomach. I flinched and swatted his hand away. "Stop it or I'll get my friend to kill you." "Okay, Fine. I'm too young to die anyways." We both looked at each other and smiled. "Thank you." I pulled him into another hug. "It's really no problem my Jimin."
