Numb; Yoonmin + Namjin

Chapter 14

Seokjin hates liars, he really does. He'll cut you off if you lie to him. That's why when Jimin said he'd be home by 4 and came at 7, he was fuming.

"JIMIN!" He yelled, the said boy turned around only to be met with an angry Seokjin. A very angry Seokjin to be exact.

"Where have you been?! I was worried you'd run away, that's so cliche by the way," Jimin rolled eyes while dropping his bag.

"I was with some friends, we stayed out longer than we intended to," Jimin said softy, careful not to anger his older brother more.

"And who might those friends be? Don't their parents care that their kid could've been in a dangerous situation? Actually, I don't even care about them, why didn't you call me?" Seokjin said. Jimin looked down at his feet, something he did when he was nervous.

"Sorry, hyung," Jimin said then ran up the stairs to his room. Seokjin shook his head as he watched Jimin disappear down the hall.

Something was up with Jimin and Seokjin wanted to know the tea.

A few hours later, Jimin was seated in the living room with Seokjin and his mom watching The Greatest Showman.

"Hey, Jinnie hyung?" Jimin said, turning towards his brother.

Seokjin hummed, their mother focusing in on the conversation.

"There's a party soon and mom said I could go, you were there remember?" Seokjin nodded. "And you said you'd drive me and I was like; thanks bro and- I'll just get to the point. I have a few other friends that are going and we need someone to drive all of us, and I may or may not of told them you would. So now Taehyung and Jungkook are coming too."

Seokjin narrowed his eyes at poor little Jimin.

"You-"

"Calm down boys," their mother said calmly. "Jin, honey, just take Jimin and his friends to the party. When you get home you'll be going to the company party with me," she said softy.

Their mother was a manager in a production company. She'd always been interested in that kind of thing, even though her parents didn't approve of it, she followed her dreams. Which is exactly what she wants her kids to do.

"Okay, mom," Seokjin said. He got up to throw out the plate he'd been eating his cookies on. Jimin only nodded. He knew his brother hated these company parties but he didn't have the heart to tell his mom that, she always looked so happy when she talked about her work and Seokjin didn't want to ruin that.

WARNING: Bullying, physical abuse

It was the day before the party and Yoongi was innocently walking down the hall when he was slammed against a locker.

"Hey, freak! It's been a while since your last beating, don't think we forgot about what you did to Goyoo," Bobby, one of Goyoo's minions, spat. When Yoongi didn't respond, Bobby smirked. "Not talking today? Fine, I'll beat just your ass, I was bored anyway."

Bobby threw Yoongi on the ground in the blink of an eye. Yoongi didn't get to take a breath when Bobby began kicking his stomach repeatedly while Yoongi grunted in pain.

A crowd began to slowly form, everyone watched as Yoongi was beaten, no one trying to stop the fight. Some whispered while others laughed at how pathetic Yoongi looked.

"Why would Bob waste his time on this loser?" Someone said and their friend snickered.

"Someone's gotta teach that freak a lesson."

"You sorry now? Huh?" Bobby said as he punch Yoongi again. He picked Yoongi up and threw him against the lockers, knocking the wind out of Yoongi. Yoongi whimpered when Bobby lifted up his knee only to drill it into his side multiple times.

"P-please, s-stop," Yoongi whispered. But that only encouraged Bobby to continue.

Yoongi laid limp. He felt numb, the sound of the crowd and Bobby turned into white sound.

It would be really embarrassing if Jimin saw me like this

Jimin

Jimin

All he could think about was Jimin, even in moments like these.

Then Jimin burst through the crowd

"You okay Yoongi hyung?" Jimin asked as Yoongi sat down on one of the beds in the nurse's office. Of course the nurse wasn't there, the school should really replace her.

For a minute Yoongi was going to respond with sarcasm, but he realized what Jimin had called him.

"Did you just call me hyung?"

"O-oh! I thought- y'know, you'd let me since- wait, oh, s-sorry," Jimin bowed and quickly got the first aid kit because he knew he sounded so stupid right now.

At first it stung, but Yoongi knew it hurt way less than the beatings he got so he sucked it up and stayed quiet as Jimin cleaned his cuts. Jimin on the other hand was lowkey having a panic attack, he'd never been this close to Yoongi. He was kneeling so he could clean the cuts on Yoongi's legs. He saw that Yoongi wasn't moving or making any noise so he looked up to the most beautiful sight.

Yoongi was staring back down at him.

Jimin blushed a bright red and looked down again in haste, accidentally hitting his forehead on Yoongi's knee in the process causing him to whimper in pain. Yoongi let out a small, hoarse chuckle, it sounded as if he hadn't laughed in years.

"You're so pretty," he whispered.
