Hoseok laughed hysterically as he walked alongside Yoongi down the sidewalk. College had finish and Hoseok was told that English turned out "Just wonderful" with Yoongi's sarcasm.

"Poor Yoongs." Hoseok smiled as he popped open a can of cream soda before taking a sip. Yoongi shrugged as he stuffed his hands into his pockets. "I really hate english. I got given double homework."

"Ouch." Hoseok grimaced slightly. "Praying for you." He hummed as they walked into the corner shop next to the busy road section.

Yoongi went to his usual place in the store to grab a bundle of chocolate bars, gathering them in his hoodie and dumping atleast nine chocolate bars on the counter. The shop keeper raised an eyebrow at Yoongi as the mint haired boy stared up him before clicking his teeth and threw the last one on the pile. "You should know better by now." The shopkeeper chuckled as he rang up Yoongi for the cash payment.

"Yah, Yoongi was you stealing again?" Hoseok joked as he walked over with four cans of cola. The sugar rush was real.

Yoongi rolled his eyes as he paid the keeper and stepped aside, stuffing all the chocolate into his bag as Hoseok paid for the cans and an ice cream lolly. He waved bye to the keeper before they both left. "He's funny." Hoseok smiled as he opened up the wrapper and sucked on the rainbow ice lolly.

Yoongi watched him before blinking rapidly and looked away, coughing slightly as he opened up a lone candy bar in his current possession. "I'm so tired." He yawned. "Mom's gonna flip again, I can already hear her say 'If only you was more like Hoseok, he's a ray of sunshine.'" Yoongi imitated mockingly, making Hoseok laugh.

"What can I say?" Hoseok grinned while shrugging, before biting down on the ice lolly - which was followed by cold pain. "Holy shit! So cold!" Hoseok whined, pulling a pained face as he covered his mouth.

"Hah. Serves you right" Yoongi smirked before stuffing the whole candy bar into his mouth, all of it disappearing.

"Oof. What that mouth do, boy?" Hoseok laughed, only getting a glare from Yoongi.

"A lot." Yoongi winked jokingly, trying to throw him off but all he got was a- "Ooh. Can I try it?"

"Fuck off, Ho."

As they both walked down the sidewalk, they came to a busy intersection part of a main road where they waited for the pedestrian lights to turn green.

Yoongi was already half asleep at this rate as he stood there for almost two minutes with his eyes closed, only to be met with Hoseok flicking his forehead. He rubbed his forehead while he gave a hateful stare at the smiling boy.

"Yoongi, stop having a death wish. Sheesh." Hoseok puffed his cheeks while rocking back and forth on his feet slowly as he kept staring at the lights to change, tapping a finger on his now opened cola can, rushing cars becoming sparse. Yoongi sighed as he looked forward.

And then his breathing stopped.

On the other side. There he was.

Park Jimin.

He was bopping his head up and down, wearing some red headphones as he was staring down at his phone, seeming to smile as he stared at his screen.

Yoongi seemed fixiated on the boy, it was as if the whole world had gone black and empty and it was only them two - and the huge distance between them.

Then everything seemingly reappeared, but voices and noises sounded distant and muffled. Even Hoseok's words sounded muffled as he was trying to get a distracted Yoongi's attention.

As he watched Jimin step out into the road and started walking while paying attention only to his phone, Yoongi realised four things.

One. The pedestrian lights were still on red.

Two. A car was speeding, it wasn't going to stop.

Three. Jimin wasn't paying attention.

Four...

...The boy is about to get hit.


'SAVE! SAVE THE KID!' his mind screamed.

"FUCK!" Yoongi cried out angrily, making Hoseok flinch at his sudden response as he instantly threw his bag off as he made a mad dash for Jimin.

It seemed everything went in slow motion at that moment...

Hoseok screaming out for Yoongi.

Jimin looking up from his phone to see the honking, speeding car advancing too quick for him to respond.

Yoongi rushing up to Jimin with all his might, yelling aggressively.


And then the world hit play.


Yoongi tackled the terror-strickened boy down into the safe bike lane of the road, hitting the curb as the car flew past while honking crazily.

"CRAZY FUCKING BASTARD!" Yoongi yelled out loud at the car as he panted, Jimin cowering in complete terror after almost being mowed down. People started to crowd around the two boys as they laid there on the side road.

Hoseok instantly dropped his half full cola can in shock as he dashed over the road when the walking lights went on green. "Yoongi!" Hoseok ran over to his friend who was laying beside the fluffy haired boy.

Yoongi didn't hear him as he started getting mad at Jimin. "Why didn't you look up, stupid!" He yelled, already seriously annoyed.

Jimin just stared wide eyed, still shaking from the event and now he was being yelled at by the scary looking emo boy that was in his english class.

"Any moron would have common sense to pay attention! Fucking hell! Yah dumbass!"

Yoongi was a lazy boy. And saving Jimin had just made him literally exercise. He wasn't enjoying how much of a sprint he had done right now. - And the fact he could have been hit too.

Jimin's stared up at the older with intense shock before his lip started to tremble. Maybe Yoongi had taken it too far yelling at the sweet boy. But Yoongi's non-existant filter was... well just plainly non-existant.

"Yoongi! A-Are you okay?!" Hoseok managed to say, getting his voice heard as he reached out a hand for his friend to grab. Yoongi tried to get up on his own but faltered as he fell back over next to Jimin, who was still shaking and seemed to look in distress now.

"Shit." Yoongi cursed as he looked down at his right knee, his skinny jeans had rips on his knees and he could now see that he had hit his knee on the curb when he fell and now there was a purple bruise forming, a big graze accompanied by it and a little bit of blood seeping from a small cut. He had too much adrenaline to notice the pain. "Heh. Well this sucks."

No.

What sucked even more was when Yoongi looked back at Jimin and his angry expression just dropped.



Jimin was having a panic attack.
