[this game actually has the best soundtrack ive ever heard and if you think im not sobbing my eyes out you're impossibly incorrect] 

[also i apologize for the long wait i've been dealing with a lot lately and i've hit this massive creative rut that i can't seem to get out of. but just to remind you guys, requests for both of my books are always appreciated because i can see what sort of things you guys want so i can better my writing]

The door opened and if Jungkook had the will he would've screamed or maybe blurt out that "this isn't what it looks like!" instead he just moved his head over, tears streaming down his face.

Seokjin and Namjoon didn't know what to do, they were completely lost. Clearly, he wasn't fine and hadn't been for a while but seemed okay at the very least early but now he was crying and hunched over the toilet bowl.

Taking him to some sort of mental hospital was absolutely not an option, they couldn't legally make him stay against his will anyways. It seemed like there was no hope for him but they had to do something, anything!

Namjoon was trying to calm Jungkook down while Seokjin thought of alternative solutions. They could probably get Yoongi to help, he cared so much for Jungkook already even though they just met. What had they gotten themselves into?

Seokjin wasn't one to buy into the whole fate thing but maybe this was fate. Maybe they were supposed to meet Jungkook, the precious boy he was, and to get him moving in the right direction. Jungkook had, for the most part, collected himself moments later.

"I'm sorry for tha-" he started.

Seokjin sighed and smiled, "None of that. It's a normal reaction and you shouldn't feel bad about it."

It was something that felt like Jungkook had been told a million times but still held weight. Was it because he trusted Seokjin, or something else? Maybe he had finally realised the truth that statement held. There had to be some reason why Jungkook felt so comfortable around Namjoon, Seokjin, and their group of absolute idiots. Idiots in a charming way. Was it fate? Were their voices the bell that he hoped would ring when he met his soulmate? Those were questions only time could answer.

"I'm... I'm really tired," Jungkook yawned. Namjoon gave him a fond look before speaking.

"Is there a movie you like? We could sit around and watch it on TV."

"I reeeeally like Your Name. Mitsuha and Taki are so sweet and it's really pretty," The youngest spoke fondly. It was his go to movie when he wanted to relax but if he was in a different mood he would drift more towards MCU related movies.

"Luckily for you, Seokjinnie has it on Blu-ray so we can watch it right away," Said Namjoon.

"Seokjinnie hyung, brat! You're old enough to know that," Seokjin said before laughing. Namjoon and Jungkook later joined in the laughter.

Just a few minutes later they were huddled up on the couch, covered in a soft beige blanket, and watching Your Name. Jungkook felt an overwhelming feeling of content. Though he did realise at some point he'd have to return to his apartment just down the hallway. Aside from the fact it was so close to here where it was calm and comforting, it felt like a whole other world in his own apartment. There where his thoughts took over his every being and the cold feeling of being alone soaked through his skin and left him shivering every night.

While he was here, he decided, he'd make the best of it. Tomorrow he had school and had work after but he could manage that. Well, maybe not Mi-gyeong's incessant worrying. Just thinking about the company of other people felt him with an unfamiliar sense of warmth and comfort.
