The Boy Next Door | Yoonmin ✔

April 25th

2:05 p.m.

"The floor boards creaked under her feet as she slowly descended the staircase. The house felt empty. Too empty. A thin layer of dust covered the house, and a few of the boxes stacked off in the corner. It felt odd, leaving the place behind. She'd grown up and lived here all her life. She didn't want to leave it behind, but she knew she had to. With one final look, she exited through the front door."

Yoongi peered over at Jimin who was placing the book back on the shelf. "That was interesting book." He states, smiling softly at a customer who just walked in. She held the hand of a little girl, dressed in a pink sweater and black leggings.

"It was, wasn't it?" Jimin agreed, coming closer to Yoongi. "What was your favourite part?"

"When Morgan woke up." He responded. "Patrick felt better, and was glad he hadn't lost the only person he loved."

"Could you imagine what it would be like? To loose someone so close to you? Or have them become so sick that they go into a coma?" Jimin said, glancing up at Yoongi curiously. He wanted to know his answer.

"I wouldn't want to go through that." He responded, lacing his hand with Jimin's. "I don't want to think about loosing Hoseok or Jin or Namjoon. They mean a lot to me."

"What about me, Hyung? What would you do if I were in a coma?"

"I'd never leave your side." Yoongi whispered, truthfully. He was too shy in that moment to look Jimin in the eyes and he was blushing of course. Jimin did that to him.

"Not even to eat?"

"No."

"Why not?"

"Because what if something happened to you while I was gone? What if you died? I wouldn't be able to forgive myself for not being there to say goodbye."

"Hyung-"

Yoongi cut him off cupping his face and resting their foreheads together. Yoongi let out a shaky breath, trying to control his emotions. "I can't..." He swallowed. "I can't... loose you, Jiminie."

"You won't loose me Hyung."

"Promise?"

"I promise."

Alright, so as much as I hate writing Author's Notes, I feel like this is an appropriate time to thank everyone who has read this book. It means so much to me. You guys are the best.

Also...you're all going to really hate me next month.

But then you'll love me.

Bye!
