Fear Them |Jikook|

Finding Us

Jungkook's POV:

I felt strong hands shake me awake from my slumber, "Hm?"
"We have to go out and find more food", Namjoon tried to whisper.
"Right now?", I said yawning with sleepers in my eyes.
"It's the best time, now get up", Namjoon walked out quietly.
I softly groaned, hoping not to wake up Jimin, but he had already stood up from the bed.
"I'm going too", Jimin picked up his boots and placed them on.
"No you're not, I don't want you getting hurt...", I responded.
"I won't get hurt. You promised me that you would protect me...", Jimin dug through his bag till he came across an army green hoodie.
"Jimin...I just want you to be where it's safe..", I walked over to him and touched his shoulders.
"I don't want to sit here when you could be in danger!", he escaped my grasp.
"Do you have a weapon?", he asked.
"Jimin? What has gotten into you?", I became worried.
I couldn't imagine losing him, not now not ever.
"Nothing! I just don't want to sit around and be useless anymore!"
"You won't be useless...", I replied anxiously while back hugging him.

"Would you get off!", Jimin scooted away till he reached the wall.
"What if I don't want to get off?", a smirk arose on my lips.
"Seriously...", Jimin whispered as he looked at the floor.
"Jungkook!—", Namjoon came into the room wide eyed.
I let my hands fall to my sides, "Let's go!"
"I'm going too!", Jimin followed behind.
"How are you going to fight?", Namjoon scanned Jimin's short height.
"I need a weapon...", Jimin spoke with a hint of nervousness.

I wanted to keep him from leaving because I couldn't determine the outcome when faced in the outside world. Seeing his built up confidence surprised me.

"Jimin...stay by my side", I reminded him.
He nodded and held the baseball bat that belonged to Namjoon.
Upon the door opening, I saw Jin crouched in corner, not wanting to see us leave.
Yoongi and Hoseok sat on the couch munching on snacks while Taehyung wished us good luck.

Jimin's POV:

I didn't know why I placed so much trust in Jungkook.
"I love him..", I only then fit the pieces of my thoughts together.
We walked on the dirt road towards the journey to find food.
"Why did he come?", I heard Namjoon whisper to Jungkook.
"He doesn't want me out of his sight", Jungkook softly snickered while Namjoon nudged him playfully.
"Are you guys talking about me?", I felt strangely irritated.
"No...", Namjoon lied with a straight face.
Jungkook covered his mouth to prevent the burst of laughter but it didn't help.
"I'm sorry Jimin..you're just so cute!", he patted my head.
I instantly pouted.
"Now what?", Jungkook continued laughing even under my thick glare.
I looked off into the trees lining the path, "You just wait Jungkook...I'll beat your ass", I thought to myself.
Namjoon's feet abruptly stopped Jungkook, which made me collide into Jungkook's back.
"Ouch!", I rubbed my forehead after the collision.
"Shh!!!", Namjoon shushed both of us.
We both gazed around in each angle, wondering what exactly did Namjoon see or hear to suddenly stop.
"They're coming...", Namjoon held his gun up and piled it with ammo.
The only thing I could hear was my heartbeat as the nerves were catching up with me.
"Jimin...you can do this..you can be brave!", I gripped the baseball bat tighter and slowly began to hold it up.
In a flash of lightning, zombies came barreling towards us and weren't going to stop. Namjoon immediately fired at them.
"Be ready Jimin", I heard Jungkook whisper in my ear.
"Was I ready?"
My brain kept debating it as a few of them came dangerously close to us.
"JIMIN?!", Jungkook pushes me aside just in time and killed the zombie that almost had ahold on me.
I breathed heavily when I watched the zombie fall to the ground.
"Jimin?! Why were you just standing there?!", Jungkook hugged me tightly until I fought for air.
"I'm sorry...", a series of tears fell down my cheeks. My heart broke into pieces knowing I couldn't help them fight.
I suddenly pushed him off and wiped my remaining tears, "Just leave me here!", I yelled out.
"I'm not leaving you for Christ sake!", Jungkook took my arm harshly and dragged me along.
"I'm only a burden to everyone", I slip out of his grip on me when it became loose.
"So you want to commit suicide?", Jungkook peered deeply into my eyes with a flame of anger.
"No! You don't understand!", the tears were flowing again nonstop.
"I know that you went through a lot, but I can't leave the one I love", Jungkook responded.
The tears stopped when I heard the words 'the one I love.'
"You lo-ve me?", I hiccuped with heated cheeks.
"I love you so much!", Jungkook placed his arms around my body and brought me to his strong chest. I opened my eyes to see Namjoon shaking his head with a playful grin, "Why don't you guys go back to the house, and I will take care of the food?"
Jungkook cleared his throat and ended the warm embrace, "We're coming!", he pulled me along.

"How am I so happy despite being in a apocalypse?"
"Only Jungkook can fill me up with such intense warmth.."
"I'm glad to have met you Jungkook.."
