jimin sighed softly to himself. they could handle themselves downstairs just fine. he'll probably get scolded by hoseok later for leaving him alone with all the littles and middles and switches. but he can't just leave his best friend like that
another heavy sigh left his mouth. he quickly got to taehyung's room and stared at the door for a few seconds before knocking on it. a few seconds passed, no response. jimin knocked a few more time and was taken aback when he noticed the angry tone in taehyung's voice
"what?" the younger called out rudely. jimin raised an eyebrow but didn't question it. "i want to check up on you, open the door, tae." he said softly.
"go away." taehyung responded sternly through the door. jimin tried to unlock the door but no use, it was locked. he frowned in disappointment. "please?" he asked again.
"will you stop whining if i let you in?"
'damn he's rude.' jimin thought to himself as he bit his lip. "yes." he responded sadly. waiting patiently for taehyung to unlock it.
a click of the lock was heard followed by the sound of a creaky door opening, revealing taehyung. his makeup looked like dried tears on his face but with color and his hair looked like he ran his fingers through it multiple times while tugging on it in frustration.
"tae.." the honey-blond frowned at the sight, taehyung only scowling at him and trying to shut the door but jimin stuck his shoe between the door and its hinge before taehyung could close it all the way
"we need to talk."
"no, we don't."
jimin gave taehyung a look that said 'i'm not leaving',and taehyung only scowled more.
"whatever." taehyung opened the door and stepped to the side sohiimin could come in and he swore jimin's face lit up like a child on christmas, taehyung himself, cringing.
jimin walked in and jumped onto jeongguk's bed, not wanting to jump onto taehyung's bed and get kicked out right away. he smiled up at taehyung like nothing was wrong. sometimes taehyung wondered how jimin wasn't a little and rather that he was a daddy.
taehyung closed the door and locked it once more, turning to the older boy as he leaned against the door and crossed his arms. "what do you want?" he asked, irritation in his voice
jimin pouted instantly at the younger boy's attitude and sighed softly once more, looking down at his thighs as he sat on the edge of the soft bed normally, the mattress sinking slightly under his weight.
"what's going on with you taetae? why are you so mean and snappy all the time? why won't you come to any of us for help? why do you keep pushing us away?" jimin asked worriedly, making taehyung flinch.
it seemed like jimin was just gonna go on forever with the questions, and with each coming question, taehyung only felt himself get more and more annoyed. he bit his lip, ran his fingers through his already messy hair, and took a deep breath. "jimin, i'm perfectly fine, i'm not snappy and i'm definitely not pushing you guys away, i'm fine."
he always trying to tell himself that he's fine, everything is fine. 'i'm not fine, help me', he wants to say, to shout it from the rooftops, to shout it out loud for anyone and everyone to hear, but he can't, he just can't. "i need to be alone, can you get out?"
the other shook his head. "no," He simply said. "i won't."
taehyung gritted his teeth, but jimin couldn't see that. "this is my room hyung, leave." he glared at the, now much shorter, since he was sitting on the bed, boy.
"make me." the honey-blond challenged.
it took everything in taehyung to not go over and punch jimin's pretty little face, but he managed.
"get. out." taehyung seethed in rising anger.
"i told you, no. you need to talk to us." jimin replied, voice sounding a little shaky as he noticed taehyung's obvious fear.
"why won't you ever leave me the fuck alone? why won't any of you ever leave me alone? i just wanna be by myself, is that so hard to fucking understand? no. because you're too busy sticking your heads inside your little's asses that you can't fucking understand me. fucking leave me alone!" taehyung shouted at jimin, who was now visibly shaking. he could never handle people raising their voices, let alone screaming at him.
he tried to grab taehyung's hand to calm him down a little, but it didn't work. taehyung immediately slapped jimin's hand away when the older slightly touch his palm. jimin frozen in shocked and fear.
tears collected in jimin's eyes as he let out a shaky breath, wringing his fingers in his lap as he nodded his head. "okay tae. i'll leave you alone." h whispered brokenly as he stood up and walked towards the door, head down.
"thank you." was all taehyung responded with and he swore he could hear a small sob come from jimin's lips as he unlocked the door, opened it and ran down the stairs to the living room where everyone else was, not bothering to hide the sound of his loud sobbing.
only seconds after he heard jimin's loud sobs, did he realize what he had just done.
'fuck, what have I done? should i go after him? no.. i shouldn't.. but he's upset. fuck. i don't know what to do.'
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
what should taehyung do? - go after jimin and possibly cause another argument? - or stay in his room and feel guilty?
