Little Troubles

Part 4-Past End-Back to School

Jimin blinked for a few moments as he slowly began to wake up from the sleep, he swore he wouldn't get. He let his eyes roam around until they landed on the side of the bed where Jungkook laid curled up, soft light snores escaped from his lips quietly. Jimin shook his head and finally thought to glanced at the clock on the desk that was situated across the room. He had loved the desk the moment he had saw it and knew that Jungkook would love it, when they finally brought him home. It took so long, but he understood that his friend had been deemed to be one of those kids that the system forgot. The only reason he hadn't been is because Jimin's parents refuse to let it happen. He yawned and stretched and looked back at the clock.

"SHIT!!!! he gasped. "Jungkook-ah!!! wake up!! we are going to be late!!! We still have to get ready!!! Come on.....wake up!!!" he said loudly. He knew the other boy didn't like to be touched. and so, he wanted to wake him up without touching him, lest he freaked the hell out. "Come on!!!" He quickly got out of the bed.

"Shut the hell up, you dick!!! I don't wanna get up!! I didn't want to WAKE up! and sure as hell don't want to go to damn school!' Jungkook mumbled barely coherently before yawning. Jimin could have let it go, knowing his sleeping partner of the past night would get up and go to school, not for him but his parent, but it just wasn't in him to let the younger one talk to him in that manner.

"Suck it up, buttercup. you are going to school, and hopefully you will make a few friends, and geezs at least act like a normal teenager." He shook his head, causing his hair to fluffy around his face, before he speared his hand through it as if that would change it. "Look. I know this sucks big time to you. I know you are feeling shitty about going to school and possibly having to deal with the kids you lived with before. But you don't have to worry. I will be there with you all day. If anyone bothers you, we will beat the crap outa them, like we did when we were younger. " he offered as a sinister smile grew and even reached his eyes.

Jungkook swung out of bed and grabbed his notepad. But Jimin stopped the other from writing. He looked at his younger friend and shook his head. "From now on talk to me. If you have something to say to anyone you can tell me and I will relay what you say, but you don't have to write. The only way you are going to be comfortable talking is for you to get used to it again. Since it is not a natter that you can't talk, it is just that your speech is underdeveloped. " He explained softly. Jungkook shook his head, and attempted to write again, but Jimin again placed his hand over the tablet. Jungkook looked at his friend and glowered menacing. "Come on, don't get pissed off. wouldn't you like to be in at a place where you can just cuss out anyone who says something you don't like instead of having to write it. But again, it's not that you can't speak, you are not used to it. In a couple of weeks, you will be speaking like a boss. Just try it ok? if after 3 days you don't feel like it is working, we will do something different. deal?" Jimin offered with a blatant plea in voice. Jungkook stared at him as if he had lost his mind, before walking to his closet and pulling his clothes for school, and leaving the stunned older boy standing there still waiting on his answer, as he slammed the door as he left the room.

Jimin released a sigh of relief. It was like last night never happened. So, what the other part of Jungkook had said was true. They are almost like two separate identities in the same body. Jimin didn't have time to mull this over too much they were going to be late as it was. He quickly left the younger boy's room and went to his own luckily, he had his own shower. He needed to get ready fast, because he knew that Jungkook was in defensive mode and in that state of mind he would escape from Jimin and school would be missed. Not on his watch, besides his parents would kill him if he let it happen.

20 minutes later (A/N: cause tired!!!)

Jimin stands off to the side of the living so that he is hidden from where Jungkook will have to go to sneak out. He hates that he had to do this, but he is betting that Jungkook's instincts for running away having changed since they were younger and that his Kookie is going to run. Just as He checked his watch, he heard a slight sound in the foyer. Betting that it was Jungkook, he stopped moving and waited. As he awaited his friend to come closer, moved quietly to line his body up against the wall. All he had to do was wait for the tip-off.

Jungkook slowly moved toward the door. Jimin was known for taking forever to get ready to leave the house. Since he had been there, Jimin had ran late to school countless time, due to his need to make sure he was perfect walking out of anywhere that people could see him. The mere thought had Jungkook rolling his eyes. He swiftly and quietly moved toward the front door. He really did care for his friend but school? Yeah, it was a wrap. He wasn't going, he would probably get arrested for beating the hell out of the first person who made a smart remark. He really did care that his childhood friend was working so hard to ensure that he was comfortable and even more that he felt safe and secure in his new home. But he wasn't the same boy that Jimin. He didn't think the same, he didn't act the same, not to mention that he worked very hard not to have a violate episode while he lived with Jimin and his parents. The very thought of that gave him a shiver down his spine. He shook his head to get the thought out of his mind, frankly he was scared shitless of losing his temper and hurting them.

He slowly moved toward the door making sure that he made no sound. He nearly made it to the door, when a very loud rumbling squeak that made him jump back and drop into a defensive crouch. He looked around to around himself with precise snaps of his head as he checked to see where the sound came from. It took about a minute from to realize that there was a lose floorboard under the ornately designed floor tile.

"Fuck!!!" he hissed, feeling utterly disgusted with himself for not remembering about that damn floorboard. Well Hell, maybe Jimin didn't hear it. After all, he should be completely enthralled with getting himself completely beautified for school. He waited another minute and figured that the older boy was still getting ready and didn't hear that loud cacophony. Jungkook walked around the noisy spot in the middle of the entryway and reached for the door.

"You really are an idiot sometimes, Jungkook." Jimin said as he stepped into the entryway. He glared at his friend. He wasn't in the mood to fight with the other boy. But to say he was pissed off, didn't come anywhere near how angry he truly was.

Jungkook Whipped his head to the right and saw that Jimin was standing there. The look on his face was making him very uneasy. He forgot that Jimin is the wrong guy to make angry. Frankly Jungkook, had seen him shut down a teacher when they were younger, as the teacher had been trying to exclude him from any of the class trips to the park that they went on. It pissed Jimin off so much that He stood right in front of the teacher and told her that his father was a lawyer and that if she didn't get her silly snobby ass in order, he would share everything with his father who in turn, would make it his life's work to get her thrown in the very bowels of the prison and she would never see the light of day. Jungkook shook his head. He pulled out his notepad and wrote something very quickly, and with a bowed head offered him the small note.

"I know you're really mad, I'm sorry. I'm scared to go to the school. If any of the kids, I lived with see me, I will be jumped and so will you. I wanted to protect you, Jimin. But still I'm sorry."

"You really stupid about somethings." Jimin said softly under his breath. "Look, I understand. So, let me tell you one final time before we are late. I'm not leaving your side. If those assholes want a piece of you, they are in for a very rude awaking. One, I'm not going to let anyone lay a hand on you. Two, did you suddenly forget that you are built like a German tank and that your fighting ability, is probably around a fucking billions of times higher than theirs??? So, let them come at us! I'm not against a beat down and considering I had very little sleep, I'm in a really bad mood!!! not get your ass in gear. We are going to fucking school!!!" He had begun in a very sound tone and ended his little speech in a full-scale holler. the depth of his feelings was drowning Jungkook. "Do you get it? I finally get to make sure you are safe. I have waited to protect you, so don't take this away." he said softly again.

It was his lost, Jungkook thought as he sighed. He had no idea how Jimin felt. But he can see that the years he and his parents couldn't bring him home, really affected his friend. Jungkook sighed and offered his friend his first true sign of trust.

J... Jim...Jimin. I sowwy. I so so sowwy." Jungkook voiced softly.

I know its short, but it had to be this way asthe next part is going to most likely confuse you a bit! But it will work out. Anyways I'm off again! Need to go play Superstar BTS!
