Home is where my heart was settled. It's was gone, as if it was never coming back.

"So, an abandoned house in the middle of the woods?" Jimin asks, as he holds tightly onto Taehyung's neck while being carried.

Jungkook nods, whacking the spindly branches of spiked plants out of Taehyung's way as they walk through the forest. Taehyung is surprisingly wearing shorts, despite knowing that his legs could get scraped, so Jungkook is 'protecting' him.

"Yeah, long story short we found it not too long ago and it has electricity and crap so Jungkookie claimed this whole forest as his own." Taehyung explains, taking note of how Jimin weighed the same as a small puppy.

Jimin nods, resting his head in the crook of Taehyung's neck like a baby. "Aww cuuuuuuuuuuute~" the red head coos, holding the boy close to give him some kind of warmth.

"We really need to make a pathway of some kind, clear up some of this so we can walk properly." Jungkook complains, straightening out his back when the small cottage comes into view. "Anyway here we are."

Jimin turns his head to look at the small home, it's light blue vinyl walls and black shingles seeming quite familiar to the boy. Vines are creeping up some posts, a small front porch surrounding the rough door.

"Welcome to our humble abode." Taehyung narrates, as they walk up to the seemingly deserted building.

"One Mississippi, two Mississippi, three Mississippi..."

A brown haired man counts, taking a sip of his steaming black coffee. He chuckles, watching as the butter knife in his hand scrapes across the wood of his kitchen table over and over in uneven rows.

Thousands of indents are carved into the amber brown, some deep, some shallow. It's a repetitive pattern of insanity, hoping one day that the schedule will break and never return, praying that it won't become the only coping mechanism against the bags forming underneath the brunette's dark charcoal eyes.

Jimin sighs deeply as he is set down on a couch, the soft cushions comforting his aching bones.

"Jimin... if you don't mind me asking..." Taehyung starts, kneeling next to the couch where the tired boy was laying helplessly. "When was the last time you ate?"

Jimin chuckles, shrugging slightly. "I'd ask you when the last time you think I ate was." The black haired boy replies, slipping the thick material of his black sweatshirt off his lithe frame.

Skin and bones is all Taehyung can see, the dark t-shirt falling off the older's pretending collar bones, every rib being countable. "Hyung how did this h-happen?"

Jimin lays back on the soft couch, feeling his spine hit the material as his back collides with it. "I simply did it to myself, and just realized it." He says, shrugging it off. "I just can't eat anymore, my stomach won't even hold it."

"Jimin..." Taehyung starts, feeling his heart race increase as he attempts to calm himself down.

But he can't, he can't control it.

Taehyung heaves, standing up on his feet as his light head is filled his voices that he can't understand. His vision turns red, feeling his teeth clenching in his mouth. He throat contracts, as his body tenses.

"HOW DARE YOU DO THIS TO YOURSELF!" Taehyung yells, his voice significantly lower and almost sounding satanic.

Jimin flinches, looking straight into the younger's dark eyes that are filled with insanity and anger. He feels a harsh grip on his bony arm, pulling him up onto his weak, frail legs.

The sound of hurried footsteps and a door slamming open breaks Tae out of his trance as he collapses to the ground, letting go of the black haired boy. Jimin watches as tears start to fall down the redhead's cheeks, his body shaking.

Jungkook rushes into the room, immediately hurrying to Taehyung's side. "Tae-hyung! Breathe!" The boy says, falling to the ground onto his knees as he places a hand on the dazed boy's chest.

"Wh-what happened?" Jimin asks, his body crumbling as he sits down on the couch, his light headedness causing his vision to blur.

"Certains times, Taehyungie breaks down into this state.. it just happens and I'm still not used to it." Jungkook explains, watching as the red haired boy's eyes shut closed as he passes out. "This state happens when many emotions are piling up in him, it takes up a lot of his energy. Don't worry, it's not your fault it's just something that happens in his head. He's been able to calm it, but it doesn't last forever."

"I-Is he going to be alright?" Jimin asks, his cold body shivering as concern fills his expression.

"Yes, just give it some time. And try to eat something. Try, slowly."

Jimin gulps and nods, worry still in his system.
