•Chapter 3•

Hi again! Welcome to chapter 3
Enjoy!
Last chapter:
They all nodded their heads, I mentally sighed again.

I wish I could fast forward time.

It was night time at this point, everyone was going to their separate rooms, but I was still downstairs.

I was debating on taking the recommended amount of medication, just for the time being.

In case I start to feel upset.

I was staring down at the two bottles in my hand before shaking my head and shoving them back into my backpack I brought with me.

I was planning on going to the bathroom to see if I could put the medicine in the cabinet, I don't want to carry this bag around all of the time.

I made it to the door as I was about to push it open someone came out, pushing me back I stumbled but caught myself.

I looked up at who it was and saw Jungkook staring at me.

"I'm so-" I was cut off as he silenced me with his stare.

"Why're you even here? Huh?" He asked, anger was evident in his expression and in his voice.

But there was a hint of sadness too.

"We were doing just fine on our own, but you had to come along. You're going to drag us down." He seethed, continuing to hit me with every word.

I didn't say anything, I just stared, I was looking into his eyes. Trying to convey my feelings without using words.

I saw his expression soften, but it was a short time before anger flashed back into his eyes again.

He leaned in and peered into my face.

"I saw how you dance, and how you sing. You're going to be worthless to us all, remember that." Jungkook finished, shoving his way past me.

I watched him disappear into his room before stepping into the bathroom.

——

I spent some time in there, crying my eyes out, but not before finding a place to put the bottles.

I washed my face and looked at myself in the mirror.

"T-There's still a little hope." I said to myself, a few more tears falling as I remembered his words.

But I also remembered how his expression softened for a split second.

That's why I'm going to keep trying.

My eyes were red and swollen as I walked down the hall to Jin's room, but as I passed by I heard some loud talking.

Almost yelling?

I couldn't help myself, but I listened in.

"Wh-no hyung I can't do it! I don't want to work with him!"

"Jungkook, we don't want to either but...think about ARMY."

"Tae-hyung I know, but we won't have an ARMY left with him joining he is going to drag us down!"

I stopped listening and continued walking and opened the door to Jin's room.

Instead of finding just Jin I found Jin and Jimin.

They both looked at me, I cleared my throat and silently went over and sat cross legged on my side of the bed.

"M/N." I heard Jin's voice and looked at him.

"Yes hyung?" I asked, emotionless.

"Are...were you crying...?" Jin asked and I quickly rubbed my eyes.

"No, no, just tired." I said, looking down into my lap.

"But your eyes are swollen." He said, moving closer to me, "Let me see." He demanded lifting my chin up.

When he did I saw Jimin, his face held concern but when we made eye contact it quickly disappeared.

"M/N-ah why were you crying."

"I-It doesn't matter, I don't want to be a burden to you guys, you can keep talking. I'll just go to sleep." I said, brushing away Jin's hand and shoving myself under the covers.

——

Jimin's P.O.V (WhoA)
I watched the two interact, wondering how Jin could be so fine with him invading our space.

But when I saw his eyes...

Those beautiful E/C eyes...

They were red and swollen, which made me feel sad.

Why am I feeling sad for him?

I quickly pushed those feelings away as we made eye contact.

It's not like I'm not upset and angry about him coming into our lives. All I want is our life to go back to the way it was before.

I saw him curl up and go to sleep, so I turned back to Jin.

"So he's a part of the vocal line?" I asked.

"Yeah, so we're going to be in the studio together tomorrow, for a while. I know you're upset, but you're not as upset as Jungkook and Tae."

"So?" I asked annoyed.

"So just be nice to him! It's not that hard!" Jin stood up, "He's had a difficult life-"

"Yeah we all have hyung! I'm not entirely sure why he needs special treatment."

"Being nice to someone isn't special treatment Jimin, it's just common curtesy! Get that through your head!" Jin said.

"We worked so hard hyung. We made it to where we are now, and he got a free pass in here!"

"He also worked to be a part of BTS! He told me that our music, our music helped him. And here you all are, his idols, people that he looks up to! You guys make him feel like he doesn't belong." Jin finished, sitting back down.

I sighed, "It's hard..." Jin looked up at me, "But I'll accept him. I'll..try to get to know him." I said, clearing my throat a bit.

Jin smiled.

"He's super cute, and he's a fun person, why pass up a friendship that's so healthy?" He said looking at me.

I left Jin's room, thinking about his words, and went to my own.

I flopped on my bed and quickly fell asleep.

M/N...it's just hard to accept it, but I'll try.
