I Heart U

Chapter 12

Namjoon frowned as he laid next to Jimin, holding him close and petting his hair.  He kissed his forehead as the younger man whimpered, he continues to chant his lover's name begging and crying not to leave him. 

Jimin had gone through hell with that guy.  He didn’t deserve to have to remember any of it, he didn’t deserve to go through this again.

“Shhhh, I’m here,” the doctor said gently when Jimin whined and rolled over to bury his face into his chest.  Jimin clung to him and trembled.

Everything was happening again.  The nightmare he’d tried so hard to escape was just…back.

It started out innocent enough.  Jimin was leaving the hospital after sitting with Jungkook for the last four hours since he’d had a heart attack.  He just bumped into Yoongi in the parking lot on the way to the car.  Apparently, Yoongi had been visiting someone that he’d just broken up with.  Jimin had wished he’d known better than to just assume it was all innocent.

But he didn’t know better, he simply accepted it and about three days after they met, they were in a very passionate relationship.  Nights of ecstasy, days of romance.  Everything was incredible between them for about a month.

That was when Yoongi hit him for the first time.

“You stupid little bitch,” Yoongi said with a low voice as Jimin held his cheek, tears in his eyes.

“I-I’m sorry,” Jimin whined out.  “I’ll change…”

“Damn right you will, I’m not having my boyfriend go out dressed like a goddamn whore,” Yoongi said, huffing at him.  “And wipe that goddamn make-up off.  You look like trash.”

Jimin was suddenly seeing a side of Yoongi he didn’t want to see.  Yoongi was a complete monster.  Every time Jimin did anything he didn’t like, he’d snap and hurt him.  It would slowly get worse and worse until Jimin ended up in the hospital from a broken rib and a broken ankle.

And while he was there he met Namjoon.

Namjoon, the most caring man he’d never met before, the man who made sure he was all healed up before discharging him.  The man he wished Yoongi would be.

“Stay off that ankle for a few more days,” Namjoon said gently as he wheeled Jimin out to the parking lot.  “I don’t want you to end up in that hospital bed again, okay?”

“How do you know I won’t break it on purpose to come to see you?” Jimin teased with a little giggle.

“Jimin, shame on you,” Namjoon said, chuckling as he smiled.  “Don’t hurt yourself, silly boy.”

“Well, I do have to be here a lot, my baby brother has heart trouble,” Jimin admitted.

“Oh, that’s your brother,” Namjoon said, nodding a little.  “He’s one of my patients.  I really only helped you because I had to help another doctor out.  I’m the heart surgeon.”

“Oh, you’re the one who’s been helping him stay positive,” Jimin said, perking up.  “Thank you, Dr. Kim.”

“I told you, call me Namjoon,” the doctor said gently.

“Dr. Joon,” Jimin corrected with a grin.

“I wish all patients were cute like you,” Namjoon said as he laughed.

It was then that their relationship began to slowly blossom.

Jimin visited Jungkook four times as much just to see Namjoon at the hospital.  Though he was with Yoongi, it was comforting to see the doctor.  He felt safe around him.  And Yoongi didn’t like that one bit.
