Jimin POV

   Jimin stared at the older's chest in shock. All he could see against the pale skin was bursts of various shades of greens, purples and blacks, displaying a galaxy of physical pain. He slowly walked towards Yoongi, afraid the boy would flinch again. He carefully grabbed ahold of Yoongi's hand, holding it gently.

    "Is it alright if I ask you to take your shirt off? It'll be easier for me to apply pain relief gel." Jimin asked carefully, smiling sincerely with a hint of worry. Yoongi nodded and attempted to lift his shirt, but failed due to the pain in his abdomen and ribs. Jimin noticed this and put a hand on Yoongi's shoulder. "Do you want me to help you?" Jimin asked worriedly. Yoongi stared at the younger for what seemed like minutes, seeming to be in deep thought, slowly nodding after thinking about his answer. Jimin smiled and nodded in confirmation as he slowly began to lift the hem of Yoongi's shirt, helping the older slip his arms out of the sleeves.

   He stared at Yoongi's torso in awe. There were scrapes and bruises everywhere. Jimin felt a pain in his chest, it hurt him to see his friend look like this. After a few seconds of staring, Jimin snapped back into reality and took out his makeup bag, and first aid kit, spreading out the items he'd use, along the bathroom counter. He urged Yoongi over, and helped him sit on the edge of the counter, making it easier for Jimin to apply the various products.

Jimin grabbed a few small pads of gauze, pouring a generous amount of hydrogen peroxide on them, and carefully applied it to Yoongi's bottom lip. The two were close. Dangerously close. Jimin's cheeks began to heat up slightly, noticing the small distance between them, as he tried to focus on cleaning up the open wound.

Once he was finished, he cleared his throat, throwing away the now blood covered gauze and reaching for his color correction palette. He grabbed a brush and dipped it into the green cream-like substance, applying it carefully around Yoongi's open lip wound, making sure not to get any inside of the wound as to prevent infection. He noticed Yoongi fidgeting uncomfortably with how close they were.

After he was finished applying the green, he went towards the red and yellow, applying it onto the older's bruised cheek, and on the rest of his face to even out the makeup. Once he was finished, he began applying concealer, grabbing his makeup sponge and blending out the makeup across Yoongi's face, creating a blank canvas. He applied a slight bit of contour to even out Yoongi's skin and stepped back, admiring his work. He nodded in confirmation and Yoongi turned to look at his reflection. He was surprised at how easily the bruises and marks disappeared, he smiled to himself. He was amazed that Jimin could make him look so natural, as if the night before never happened.

"Yoongi, I'm gonna apply the gel now, is that alright?" Jimin asked carefully, always seeking consent before touching the elder. Yoongi turned to look at him and nodded. He sat calmly on the edge of the bathroom counter, as he watched Jimin pour the contents onto his hand. "This might sting a little, since your skin is sensitive, okay?" Jimin warned, Yoongi nodding in response. Jimin carefully placed his hand on Yoongi's bruised abdomen, the older flinching due to the sudden coldness of Jimin's hands. Jimin gently began to rub the gel onto the bruises, being careful not to press too hard and hurt the older. Yoongi grew accustomed to the feeling and sat patiently, watching Jimin's face as he applied the gel.

"All done." Jimin stated, stepping back and eyeing the older's bruised torso to make sure the gel was applied everywhere it needed to be. Yoongi nodded his head and smiled thankfully. "Ah, do you need me to help you put your shirt back on?" Jimin asked. Yoongi slowly nodded and watched as Jimin helped him pull his arms through the sleeves of his sweater, hissing in pain quietly when he moved a certain way.

Once Jimin had pulled the hem of Yoongi's sweater down, having now fully dressed him again, he stopped moving, hands on the counter, staring at Yoongi, the older staring back at him with the same intensity. They stayed like that for about five minutes, just staring into each other's eyes in comfortable silence, neither of them aware of the thoughts running through the other's head. Yoongi wanted to thank him, but his pen and sticky notes were in his bag back in the classroom. He thought for a moment before slowly leaning forward and wrapping his arms carefully around Jimin, hugging him tightly but not enough to hurt the younger. Jimin stood there in shock for a few seconds before he brought his arms up to hug the older back.

The two broke apart after a few minutes, and stared at each other again. Jimin felt a small amount of heat creep onto his face, and cleared his throat to speak. "Yoongi, I was wondering, if you'd like to come over today and hang out? If you want to of course. I want to get to know you better." He stated, smiling. Yoongi nodded almost rapidly, smiling happily. "alright then." Jimin smiled brightly, eyes closing in the process because of his rising cheeks.
