It was early morning and the sun was making it's way up slowly, birds were singing and other than that jimins neighborhood was extremely quiet.

"So who's going, you or me?" yoongi asked as he parked his car in front of jimins house. They wanted to get jimins stuff without getting noticed by his parents. Jimin wanted his colorful sweaters more than anything else and he also needed his phone.

"I will go", jimin sighed and jumped out of the car, giving yoongi a thumb up before he jumped the fence. Yoongi watched jimin climbing the tree all the way up to his window. Jimin tried opening it but it was closed. Someone must have locked it from the inside. Jimin gave up and came down.

"What should I do? It's locked", jimin pouted and grasped his hair.
"Is your father home?"

"No, his car isn't here ."

"Well, I think it's time for plan B", yoongi smirked at jimin who looked confused, "plan B?"

"Look.." Yoongi sighed and crossed his arms over his chest, "i'm going to ring that bell not once, nor twice. I'll ring so much to make it the most annoying experience your mother will ever get through. Meanwhile, you're going to hide behind the tree. Eventually your mom will come out, completely pissed, looking for the bastard who woke her up from her beauty sleep, while you quickly slip inside from behind her and go up to your room.. It's that simple."

"Oh" jimin answered after listening closely to yoongis plan, "but what if something goes wrong?"

Yoongi closed his eyes and sighed deeply,"we have plans from A-Z so don't worry about that, jimin. Now go. I'll park my car out of your moms sight."

Perfect. Yoongis plan worked. He was now running away after he had rang the bell for about a hundred times, making sure to make jimins mother annoyed enough to actually step out and look for him.

Jimin had gotten inside and ran up the stairs, he quickly grabbed his backpack and stuffed it with underwear, socks and some shirts. He took another bag and put in some sweaters and three pants. His bags were filled. He put on the rest of the sweaters he couldn't leave behind. He wasn't sure if he was ever coming back.

He looked around to check if there was anything he needed to take with him before he headed to the window, he noticed his phone laying on the table and took it. He opened the window and threw the bags on the grass before he remembered something more important, his pink notebook .

Finally, he climbed out of the window, grabbing his bags once he was down and jumped the fence. Now all he had to do was wait for yoongi. He smiled relieved when he saw yoongis car coming a few seconds later. Their plan was a success and it felt great.

"Mission accomplished ", jimin grinned as he placed his bags in the back seat. He looked happy and clapped his hands from excitement.

"Was that fun?" Yoongi smirked and looked over at jimin, whose eyes were still sparkling with happiness and excitement.

"I love adventures!", jimin said with a thrill voice and closed the car's door,"let's go."

Yoongi drove a couple kilometers more until he reached his destination. The supermarket. He needed to buy some groceries because jimin was going to live with him from now on and yoongi had absolutely nothing in his kitchen.

There was something yoongi now felt for the first time; responsibility. This time it wasn't just about him anymore, it was about them ,together.

"Can we get some strawberries please?" Jimin smiled softly and side hugged yoongi, knowing exactly that yoongi can't resist his cuteness.

Yoongi sighed and grabbed three packs of strawberries but jimin quickly put one away saying it was too much. He didn't want yoongi to spend so much money on him. He knew that everything yoongi bought was for him because yoongi's kitchen was always empty. He'd just have jam, bread and some cereal.

"No, I don't want candy!" Jimin grabbed yoongis arm quickly, he didn't want him to pay all that.

"Are you sure? I know you love it", yoongi asked surprised.

"I don't want it", jimin assured nodding his head lightly as he put them back in to the shelf.

--------- ✂----------------------

Arriving at yoongis house, jimin and yoongi started carrying jimins bags and the groceries. Jimin giggled as he dropped the apples and a man on the other side of the street noticed. He had a beard and looked very muscular. Jimin thought he was probably in his fourties .

"Be careful pretty boy ", the guy shouted, winking as he stared at jimin shamelessly. Yoongi glared at the guy, giving him a death glare wrapping his arm around jimins shoulder in a protective way. He locked his car giving the man one last look before disappearing into his house.

Yoongi placed the bags on the kitchen counter, clenched his fists and talked with a deep voice, "do you understand what I mean now?"

"What?" Jimin asked not knowing what yoongi was talking about.

"I don't like the idea of you here", yoongi sighed and bit his lips while jimin looked at him questioningly ,"but you said I could.. "

"I know. That's not what I meant ",yoongi said and took another deep breath "jimin this neighborhood is scary. Everyone is not doing well here financially.. and mentally. There are criminals, alcoholics and kidnappers and I don't know how far they would go.Promise me to be careful ".

Jimin walked over to yoongi who seemed upset, whispering ,"hey don't worry. Nothing will happen. I promise I'll be careful."

Yoongi cupped jimins rosy cheeks and pecked his lips before pulling him into a hug, his big hand playing with jimins soft hair that soon wouldn't be pink anymore. The pink was fading away, again.

"Yoongi ,we've college tomorrow", jimin whispered reminding yoongi that with everything going on they still had things they needed to do. Jimin wanted to go, but this time it wasn't for his parents anymore, it was for himself.
