"Quiet" | m.y.g + p.j.m

Jimin POV

"Jimin, come help me put groceries away!"

   Jimin messaged Yoongi that he'd be back in a few minutes after he heard the front door closing, followed by his mother's voice. He got up out of bed and rushed downstairs to help his mother. Jimin placed the bags that his mother handed him onto the counter and started putting items in their designated places. Once he was finished he smiled at his mother and walked back up to his room, closing the door behind him.

Yoongi POV

   Yoongi picked up his phone when he heard it vibrate signaling he had a notification. He smiled when he saw that Jimin had messaged him.

Jimin
Hey I'm back ^^

Yoongi began typing, smiling to himself.

Yoongi
Hey :)

Jimin
Why don't we tell each other about ourselves? ^^

Yoongi froze. He didn't know what to tell the younger. His life wasn't all that great. His mother had died when he was young, and his father was a raging alcoholic who was hardly home, but when he was, he was occasionally abusive towards the younger if he was too drunk. He had developed depression and severe anxiety, resulting in him becoming a secluded shell. Closed off to the rest of humanity for his own protection.

Yoongi
What do you want to know?

Jimin
Hm, I guess we can start at basics?

Yoongi tried to think of things about his life that he could tell the younger. After a moment, he began typing.

Yoongi
Well, I like to write songs. My birthday is March 9th. I like to listen to hiphop, and I like the color black.

Jimin
Ah that's so cool! I wish I could write my own songs but I'm not creative or talented enough :(

Jimin
My turn! I like to sing but I'm not very good at it. I love to dance, I spend most of my time doing so. and my birthday is October 13th.

Yoongi frowned when he read that Jimin didn't think he could sing well. He was sure the boy sounded great. He was also intrigued by the younger's interest in dancing. He imagined the boy moving swiftly in his own dimension, without a care in the world other than for the rhythm he was dancing to.

Yoongi
I'm sure your voice sounds great. And if you'd like, you can sing one of my songs, I'm intrigued to hear how they sound out loud. :)

Jimin
Sure, I'd love to! ^^

Yoongi smiled and the two boys continued to text each other until late into the night. Eventually Jimin went to sleep so Yoongi was left alone in the dark with his thoughts, as it always was.

Yoongi jolted when he heard the front door slam. He had locked his bedroom door when he got home, he always did. He lied there, alone in silence as he listen to the commotion downstairs caused by his father. After about an hour his father had finally gone to bed, as Yoongi heard his stumbling footsteps go up the stairs and down the opposite end of the hallway.

Yoongi sighed to himself. He curled up and lie on his side, scrolling through social media, his phone plugged into the charger. He eventually turned off his phone, growing bored, and flipped over and stared out the window, observing the stars in the sky.

   It was almost 4am meaning he had about an hour until school started. He lied there for a while just studying the stars. He drifted off into his thoughts until he was disrupted by the sound of his alarm clock reading 5:15am.

   He sighed heavily as he sat up and stretched out his arms, standing up from the bed and walking towards his closet to get ready for school. He pulled out an oversized black sweater and some black skinny jeans.

   He walked out of his room and walking into the bathroom, not forgetting to lock the door behind him. He did his routine and looked in the mirror. He looked like he had gone to hell and back. His dark circles were becoming obvious and he looked slightly paler. He sighed and brushed his hair as best as he could before leaving the bathroom, turning off the light.

   He walked downstairs quietly as to not wake his sleeping father. He carefully opened the door and closed it quietly behind him, not bothering to lock it.

As Yoongi walked down the street towards school, he listened to music on his phone. He nodded his head to the beat of Kendrick Lamar's 'HUMBLE.'

Once he reached the front of the school he walked inside, paying no mind to anyone else around him. He walked to his first period and sat down at his side of the desk. He scrolled in his phone, rubbing the bridge of his nose and temples from time to time. He heard the seat next to him being pulled out and looked up, smiling when he saw Jimin, who smiled back.

Jimin POV

When Jimin walked into the classroom, he saw Yoongi and smiled. He walked over and pulled out his chair, smiling at Yoongi when the older noticed him, smiling himself. He saw that the older had deeply dark circles under his eyes, creating a drastic contrast with his pale skin.

"Are you alright Yoongi? You look like you haven't slept in days." Jimin asked, worry lacing his voice. Yoongi took out a piece of paper and began writing.

Yeah, I'm okay. Don't worry. I just didn't sleep well last night, that's all.

Jimin looked at the older, unsure, but nodded his head and smiled. "Okay, well try to get some sleep at home, yeah?" Yoongi just nodded in response, internally sighing in frustration of his insomnia.

As class went on, Jimin noticed the older paying zero attention to the lesson, and instead staring into space. He stared at the older for a few minutes and watched as Yoongi stayed in that position. He tapped on the boy's shoulder, but Yoongi didn't even budge, nor did he acknowledge the younger's presence, almost as if he were in another realm. Jimin shook Yoongi's shoulder, causing the older to jolt instantly and blink a couple times. He looked over at Jimin and gave him a questioning look. Jimin grew worried. "Are you sure you're alright Yoongi? You've been lost in space for twenty minutes." Yoongi widened his eyes slightly as he didn't realize he had zoned out. He began writing down on the same paper again.

Sorry to worry you, I'm alright, really.

Jimin just looked at Yoongi and nodded his head, not really believing the older's words. "Okay, as long as you're alright." Jimin smiled, making the older smile back. Yoongi nodded and the two 'talked' until the end of class, completely giving up on the lesson.
