Top Student -- BTS Min Yoongi FanFic

Chapter Thirty Five

Seon's POV

"Namjoon?" I called his name when he sunk onto my shoulder, and my hands automatically went around to comfort him. He was silent, his breaths becoming slower and more calm. What had happened? A nightmare? Just yesterday he was okay, even showing his happiness. 

"I..." there was a moment of hesitation. 

I put my arms on his shoulders and pulled away to get a better look at him, but he immediately tugged me forwards, making me yelp. 

"I don't want to be seen like this," his voice was hoarse, "...please don't look." 

"U-uh, okay," I stuttered, unsure of what to do. Water drops fell from my hair, and Namjoon's sudden and close appearance only muddled my mind. I could still barely process anything - from Hoseok and Jin's fight to Yoongi's confession, and now this? Was I still asleep? 

He took a shallow and shaky breath as if mustering everything together to say something. 

"I feel awful," he paused, "and guilty." 

I was going to ask why, but he beat me to it and kept talking. 

"After becoming close to you, I've become so selfish. Just earlier, I became aware of how self-centered I was." 

"What do you mean?" 

His hands shifted, "The only reason why we started talking to you was because I had a motive." 

Confused, my eyebrows furrowed, still trying to grasp at the situation. 

"Motive?" 

"It was because I liked you," his words came out rushed, as if he were holding it in. 

"...But doesn't everyone do that?" 

He brought his face out from my shoulder, his eyes wide. Up close, I could tell how much whatever was thinking about made him stress.

"We all speak to somebody because we like them at one point, right?" 

"No, no," Namjoon shook his head, "you're misunderstanding." 

"Then help me understand." 

There was a brief period of silence, the weight of Namjoon's discourse pressuring the room. 

"Seon, I only spoke to you in hopes of dating you." 

The weight fell, and it felt like a bullet shot through my chest. 

"N-namjoon, I don't get- I don't think-" 

Suddenly, there was a loud thudding, fast footsteps retreating. Namjoon stood up, hurrying to the door and looking around. I followed, my brain barely working. Had somebody been listening?

I went to the living room, leaving Namjoon at the room with the rest of my thoughts. There, Jungkook and Taehyung sat upright, eyes barely open yet still looking just as confused as me. Hoseok and Jin were beginning to wake up, but Jimin was on the couch, his eyes downcast. Yoongi was missing. 

"What happened-" 

"Yoongi. Ran out," was all Jimin said before sighing and turning away.
