Jimin drove Yoongi home.

"Goodnight Jimin."

"Goodnight Yoongi, sleep well." Yoongi stepped out of the car, not catching the pout that crossed Jimin's face.

He'd really wanted a goodnight kiss, like really really wanted one.

"Babe? Are you okay?" End stooped down to look through the window.

"I'm okay, just tired I guess."

"I don't want you driving if you're tired. You should come inside."

Startled, Jimin didn't protest. "Oh, okay."

Yoongi took him by the hand and led him upstairs.

Sleepily, Jimin remembered the last time he'd been in these hallways. He'd been running from a nightmare. A world where End didn't want to exist. The memory was painful. A tear slipped down his cheek. And another. He wiped the tears away, not wanting Yoongi to see them. He tried to blink away the new ones.

Inside the apartment, Jimin thought he was in the clear. Yoongi went to the kitchen to get something and Jimin sniffled, trying to calm himself. Yoongi came back with a glass of water and a box of tissues.

"Did you think I didn't see? Baby..." Yoongi drew him into a hug and Jimin sobbed freely into his chest.

Breathing. In and out. He breathed in Yoongi and breathed out tears. Yoongi clouded his head, the soothing back rubbing, the soft breaths ruffling his hair, the butterfly kisses pressed to his temple. The tangibility of someone-- his Yoongi-- very much alive. It made him cry all the harder.

Yoongi wanted to make Jimin smile. Not cry. He wanted him to feel happier. He held him tightly, hoping he could drive away the hurt in Beginning's mind. When the sniffling had subsided and Jimin was breathing normally again, Yoongi led him to his bedroom.

"I'll just be in the living room, okay baby?"

Jimin sniffled again, "Don't sleep on the couch Yooni, just be next to me?"

His heart fluttering, Yoongi nodded and slipped under the covers next to Jimin. Yooni. Jimin rolled over and snuggled into his chest. Yoongi's fingers carded through Jimin's hair, making the younger sleepy and safe. And they fell asleep.
