Exams were coming soon, and Namjoon has not yet regressed. This was not good.

Jimin watched him studying hard; pens and highlighters colouring the book he had been reading, and sticky notes all over his wall.

He understood that his boyfriend needs to study for the exams, but he thought having just one off-day in between wouldn't hurt. Namjoon had agreed (a bit reluctantly), and had managed to push away the day he needed to regress too many times.

It wasn't easy for Jimin as well. Not only he had to watch his boyfriend suffer, he had exam papers to construct and tests to grade after Namjoon's. It was even more tiring.

He sat eating dinner alone that night, quietly enjoying the mellow music at the same time missing Namjoon. Tomorrow would be a hectic Sunday for his boyfriend; he would be out the whole day for some last-minute group discussions, and the next day would be his exam. Knowing the plan, Jimin had invited Taehyung over to discuss more on the test questions for the upcoming paper.

He trayed some food for Namjoon to eat while he studied, making sure to add more of those barbecued chicken that Namjoon was crazy for.

He gently lifted the tray, pausing to balance the weight and carefully rounded the counter to Namjoon's room, when he heard a loud thud.

Jolting a bit, he quickly placed the tray onto the counter and dashed towards the room. He bolted into the room, and was welcomed with the sight of Namjoon on the floor, eyes red and face wet from the tears as he hurriedly swept the papers together. Jimin felt his heart clench and he immediately dropped next to the man, helping him gather his papers as fast as he could, then placing them away to engulf him in his arms.

Once in the embrace, Namjoon immediately broke down hard, his tears seeping through the shirt he was tightly fisting and holding on to.

Jimin held himself off of his own tears and hugged Namjoon even tighter, whispering soothing words as his hands caressed his back. They sat like that for a few minutes, until Namjoon's heavy sobs reduced into quiet sniffles.

"There there... I got you. I'm here..." Namjoon trained his ears on the soothing raspy voice and accented words, calming down from the vibrations and the sound of the beating heart beneath him. He felt himself grow quiet, too tired to hold onto to himself anymore, and he just relaxed as he submitted into the care he was in.
