Jimin ran a hand through his cotton candy locks, giving me a small smile as I took a sip of my bland coffee.

"So, your birthday's in a few days, what do you think we should do?" I muttered, looking up at him.

He shrugged his shoulders, taking another bite of the blueberry muffin. "I'm fine with us just hanging out, but I was meaning to ask, how's your brother?"

I almost choked on my drink, gaining myself before I stared at him, mentally facepalming.

I forgot what I told him about Yoongi.

"Oh, um, well he's out of the hospital." It was more of a question than a statement. "He's been doing okay, he visited a few weeks ago."

"Thats good. Not to pester or anything, but I'd like to meet him one day, you talk fondly of him." He giggled quietly, when I nodded.

"He and the friends I told you about have been my only family for a while. It's always so quiet around here, and it was never like that when we were together," I rocked back and forth on the seat.

He nodded slowly, "Maybe you should get a pet?"

"Noooo, I'm not good with animals."

"Yes you are! Remember Missy? Sometimes she only likes a few people, and she liked you, so," Jimin said.

I sighed, chuckling at the same time. "I can't afford a pet at the moment, and I'm planning on continue going to work to save up for some school or college,"

"Ah, I see."

"Yep," I stood up, putting my cup in the sink and turning back around, to see Jimin's light eyes on me.

"What?"

"Nothing." He smiled, hiding it behind his hand and giggling. He sighed gently, and just stared at me.

It was strange.

"Hey, Jimin?"

"Hm?"

"Why do you call me Sunshine, anyway? I'm certainly not anything bright or special, so why?" It was my turn to stare.

There was a silence.

"Because, somehow you manage to be so bright and happy even after everything you go through. You remind me of the sun, peeking out from behind the grey skies after a rainstorm, and you are special. So special." He murmured softly.

I let out a small 'oh', unsure of what to say.

So instead, I went up to him, not able to hold myself back. I threw arms around his neck in a hug, holding on to him tightly and taking in his scent and warm embrace.

Everything was hurting so much, I wanted to cry.

But I wouldn't let myself, I didn't want to cry again in front of Jimin. Or anyone, really.

He slowly hugged back, letting out a small, shaky breath and resting his cheek on the top of my head.

"What's this for?"

"I justㅡ I just needed a hug, that's all."
