Die For You - JinxReader

Chapter 9

I woke up to Jin snapping his fingers in my face. What the heck? Jin was sitting in front of me on his knees. I rubbed my eyes and yawned. He was looking at me as if I were some strange creature. Jungkook then came by his side with a cup. I didn't know what was in it. They kept motioning for me to drink it, but I sat there confused.

There was a white noise in my ear. It was like something was ringing loudly. Soon enough, Jin and Jungkook were both a blur. The room was spinning and my head was killing me.
Is this what they called dying? My head began to droop down without warning. That's when I fell sideways. I watched as a blurred Jin tried to grab me. I closed my eyes and passed out.

I woke up once again to see a corpse not far from me. My vision was back to normal and I could feel everything again. What exactly happened? I slowly shifted myself upright with a paranoid feeling. To where I looked, Jungkook was no where in sight. Neither was Jin. The door was shut though. What I couldn't put my finger on was why I was alone.

Did they both leave me, thinking I was dead? Or did they think I was dying and just left me for dead? Either way, it was a jerkish move! I looked near me and saw the cup and decided to take a look inside. It was only water. What would water help in the situation I was in earlier? Actually, I didn't even know what was really even happening.

I got up and stumbled over into my wall. Apparently, my balance was off and or I had forgotten how to walk. Like I were a drunk man. Was what I felt earlier a hangover? It couldn't be possible. I've never drunk! The noise of me falling into the wall must've been heard from far because Jin ran into my room quickly. He then grabbed my shoulders gently and looked me in the eyes.

"Minji!" he yelled, "Can you hear me?"

"Yes," I said, "Loud and clear."

"Are you alright?" he asked.

"Yeah," I nodded, "What happened?"

With those words Jin dropped his head as if it were something really bad. I kinda felt a bit of anxiety. My heart pounded quickly and I felt scared. On the inside I was trying to calm myself while on the outside I was looking worried about Jin. What exactly happened? Why is it so bad?

"Jin?" I lowered my head near his.

"Well," he gulped, "Last night you drunk a lot of soju. We all did thinking it was water. It tasted funny, but none of us thought anything. I didn't drink as much as you and Jungkook. Your brother didn't drink more than two cups whilst you drank four. We were attacked by some guy last night. Now his corpse lays over there."

My eyes widened, "What? Is he- I mean was he living when you guys killed him?"

Jin let out a breathy laugh, "No, he wasn't living. He was undead. A spectral, if you may."

"Really?" I asked a bit scared.

He nodded and helped me up. With that, I looked around. The room was chilling, especially having a dead body on the floor. My stomach churned at the smell, too. Jungkook came in with my knife. It had blood on it and so did his arms and face. I looked at him in shock and concerned. Was he bitten?

I checked to see if my balance was alright before I rushed to check my brother. Jungkook looked at me as if I were strange. The way I was acting was abnormal. Why did I suddenly become so caring? It started to take place when Jin and I became friends. Ignoring the way he was looking at me, I continued to check his arms. I sighed with relief.

Suddenly my knees gave out and I fell towards my brother. He caught me and then pushed me off a bit. He cares, but doesn't want to show it. Why does he have to be so prideful? I sighed as I shook my head. Then I ran out of the room and into the bathroom. Mostly because I had to use it, but also embarrassment.

We were walking to the school at the regularly scheduled timing. Except we didn't bring anything in our backpacks other than our knives. Unfortunately, Jungkook had mine and I didn't have one at the moment. Jin and Jungkook decided that I didn't need one in the condition I was in. I didn't understand what was wrong with me. Somehow I felt like I was dying or something.

Jin held the door open for us as we slowly entered inside of the school.  Jungkook looked in a few classrooms. There were people in there, but we weren't sure if they were hiding or not. Many were missing. I voted on going onto the roof room until lunch. At first, it was declined, but seeming the timing we went. Jungkook and I sat on the ledge while Jin made sure no one saw the three of us.

"Do you think if I peed off the roof," Jungkook said, "someone would get showered?"

"How about I push you off and see if someone catches you?" I asked.

He slapped my shoulder, "What if I throw you off?"

"Then I'll jump off after her," Jin sat beside Jungkook.

"You know what?" Jungkook said in a serious manner.

"What?" Jin asked.

"Someone else would do the same," he said, "But he's too scared to confess."

"Don't get my hopes up about feeling loved," I whined.

"Well," Jungkook said, "I'm gonna use the bathroom. Don't wait up."

I chuckled at his sassy remark. He opened the door and went down. That's when I looked down over the town below Jin and I. There had to be some sort of chaos somewhere. Aparently it wasn't near. Luckily, we were safe on the roof. At least for now. My legs began to ache. Whatever was going on with me, it was strange. Maybe I was getting sick? Or I had alcohol poisoning. Except to my knowledge, I haven't puked.

My eyes shifted over to Jin. He was searching at the streets down below. His face seemed grim. There had to be something bothering him from the way he was looking. Did he miss someone? Was there something he saw? I decided to inch closer to him. Doing this made him look at me with a bit of shock in his face.

"Everything alright?" I asked.

He smiled, "Everything could be worse, but it isn't."

I nodded, "If anything is bothering you, a simple hug could take that bothersome away."

He chuckled softly, nodded, and looked down at the city once more. I smiled awkwardly and did the same. My body started to stiffen at the awkwardness. I felt an arm slowly wrap around me. It was Jin giving me a side hug. I hugged him back with my face burning bright red. He was warm and felt soft. He didn't let go so quickly either.

My heart pounded with happiness. How could my words be so full of meaning? Especially when I was trying to make someone else feel better due to the grim look on their face? It was a good feeling to know that he trusted me. My mother told me when I was younger that a 20 second hug meant that you could trust someone. With that, I knew Jin and I had hugged longer than 20 simple seconds.

"Woah," Jungkook said, "Good thing I wasn't long. Hugging could have gone too far."

"Shut up!" I frowned.
