Yoonmin- Delusions [M.YG • P.JM]

34- I'm Hurting Too 🔙

Jungkook's POV
-6 years ago-

I stayed by Jimin to watch over him while everyone else left to go to their rooms. It was pretty late after all. I stroked Hyung's hair as his head was on my lap, I wanted to make sure he was comfortable. I even massaged his wrists and ankles as he slept so that he wouldn't feel it sore later.

Why hasn't Jimin woken up yet?

Just as if he heard my thoughts, I saw his finger twitch.

"Hyung..," I softly let out.

His eyes slightly opened, fluttering them when realizing he had woken up. Weakly, he pushes himself up off of me, rubbing his eyes. His eyes landed upon me, and his eyes opened wider.

"Kookie? What are you doing here?"

"Earlier-"

'We can't tell him about this. Ever.'

"E-Earlier we were playing cards and you fell asleep so I decided to make sure you slept well," I lied, terribly might I add.

Nervously waiting for his response as I know he surely saw through my obviously lie-

"Oh, okay."

Jimin, for a hyung you're so oblivious.

"So are you gonna spend the night or..?" He asked.

"No, I have to get back because I have a session in the morning."

"Alright. I'm gonna go back to sleep then," he said as he waddled over to his single mattress and tucked himself under his yellow blanket.

"Goodnight, Hyung."

"Goodnight, Kookie."

I had been staring up at my ceiling for what seemed like hours. Or maybe it just feels that way because I'm still little? I wish I could sleep. Like Jimin, where he literally woke up from a long nap and then went to sleep again. I wish I could do that so my thoughts can go to sleep, too.

Images of that man hurting Jimin kept running through my mind. Why didn't I do anything? Why didn't Namjoon and Jin-hyungs do anything? Why couldn't we altogether try to step in to help Jimin? Three against one man can work right?

I sighed and rolled over, staring at my wrists this time and rubbing it. Jimin's were red from the ropes. His eyes were also red and puffy from crying. What if the bad man comes back? Can I stop him then? Will Hyungs be there to help Jimin? How long will this go for? What does he want from Jimin? Why did he have to do that?

I felt my heart break, pain surging through my chest, and tears strolling down the corner of my eyes and into the fabric of my uncomfortable pillow. I should've stayed over. I don't care if I get in trouble. I want to protect Hyung. When will I be able I do that? When will I get big muscles to beat up the bad man?

Too many questions were circling my brain and it was tiring me out. I felt my eyelids become heavy.
