❝insignificant❞ pjm - angst

Passing by the lockers displayed on the hall, she pulled her hood further down to cover her face. She's cute, yes. Beautiful, yes. But she never wanted to get noticed.

And she never was noticed.

She grew up in a family where nobody really cared for her. Always neglecting her. Yes, that means she has the freedom most kids want. But for her, it wasn't the best.

Of course most of us wants someone that would listen to our rants, would understand us, would listen to us, and of course would comfort us. Y/n has a friend. She has two actually, but none of them actually understood her. Always thinking that she's overreacting. That her depression isn't something major.

"hey... can you stop hiding your face?" a soft voice stated and she halted her steps. She knew who it was and she frowned. He slowly removed the hood from her face and lifted her chin up.

She looked directly at his eyes and it softened for a second but instantly turned cold again. He tilted his head and smiled at her.

"and can you stop bothering me?" she coldly said and slapped jimin's hand away. The students surrounding them dramatically gasped and whispers were audible.

"how dare she do that?"

"i know right. especially to jimin"

"maybe she just wants attention"

Jimin was the school's heartthrob. He's very popular in our school, along with his group.

"why are you like this?" he muttered

"like what?"

"Like this. Always wanting to be ignored. Cold. Distant. Why are you like that?"

"you don't need to know"

"yes i do."

"it's none of you business jimin."

"Yes it is! I want to know y/n! Tell me why! Tell me why are you so cold, so distant! Tell me why do you not want to be noticed! Tell me why--! "

"Because I'm no one!" she angrily shouted, tears cascading down her pale face "I'm no one! And no one would ever care! If I approach them, they'd only ignore me! They'd only shove me away and tell me shit! Society nowadays isn't what you think it is jimin! It's easy for you because you're rich, and you have everthing you want! But me? Nothing." she sobbed, not bothering to wipe the tears that continued to flow.

"You wouldn't understand me. My family itself neglects me, ignores me, doesn't give a shit about me. What more of them?!" she pointed at the students that encircled the two of them. "They wouldn't give a shit about me too. Because I'm nothing. I'm no one. I'm insignificant jimin." she inhaled deeply, "And i'll always be."

A stray tear fell from his eyes unknowingly as her words hit him.
So that was why. That was why she was distant and cold. Because she thinks everybody's like her parents.

She then looked around and then looked at jimin, making eye contact with him. His eyes softened seeing her eyes. It showed sadness, pain, and..... lost. Your eyes were lost.

She quickly wiped her tears and ran past jimin, bumping his shoulder. But before she could, he held her wrist and bought her to his chest, tightly hugging her.

She squirmed under his touch, attempting to escape in his hold.

"Your not insignificant y/n. Remember that." he whispered and she stopped. No one has ever told her that. Tears continued to run down and she tightly closed her eyes. "Hugs are very comforting y/n. That's why I love--" he was suddenly cut when two fragile arms surrounded his torso. His eyes enlarged and mouth agape by the sudden action. But after a few minutes of processing, he smiled. "--giving hugs" he continued.

"no one has ever told me that." she whimpered burying her face in his chest "nobody ever told me i'm not insignificant."

"you're wrong y/n someone already did."

"w-what..? who?"

"...... me, 7 years ago."

[flashback]

age: jimin: 8 yrs old | y/n: 7 yrs old

"do you really need to leave jimin-ah?" she sobbed, balling her tiny fist in jimin's yellow shirt. She loved the color yellow. It was like the sun. So bright and happy. And jimin was wearing a shirt that's color yellow, it also has a little sun printed by his heart.

" yes, y/n, i do. But I promise that I'll never forget you. But, you have to promise me that too." he smiled sweetly and raised his pinky finger
"pinky promise?"

"pinky promise."

"okay good. Please don't forget about me and always take care of yourself. And please always remember that you're important okay? I don't want to see you again crying because of that. You're not insignificant y/n and you know that." he muttered by her ear and cupped her face, softly placing a kiss on her forehead.

"You broke our promise y/n."
