We're Way Too Different

Episode 23

They barge into the house and Yoongi is carrying Jimin to the couch. ''What happened?'' Jin asks. 

''He's out. He needs air and space.'' Yoongi pushes everyone away, but truly, he was freaking out. What if Jimin doesn't wake up? Or it takes him a while?'' Is all he's thinking about. 

''It's going to be fine.'' Tae places a hand on his shoulder. 

''If you knew what we just saw, you wouldn't say that,'' NamJoon speaks up. 

''He just saw his dad get shot in the head at point-blank range by Damon,'' Yoongi says it. 

''What the fuck?!'' Jin lets out shocked at what he just heard. 

''Yeah...His goal was never to hurt Jimin at all, it was just to use him as bait to lure Park in, and it worked.'' Namjoon explains. 

''Jimin must be traumatized.'' Jungkook looks at his almost lifeless body on the couch, sorrow in his tone. 

''No!'' The words are shouted out of Jimin's mouth, as he shoots up from the couch.

''Hey, it's fine.'' Yoongi grabs a hold of him. He looks around, taking a moment to realize that what just happened was not a dream. He didn't imagine shit, he really did witness his dad's murder.

Jimin bursts out crying, while Yoongi hugs him to his chest. ''Oh, I'm sorry.'' Yoongi whispers, kissing his head and rocking him back and forth. Jimin's grip on the back of Yoongi's shirt tightens. 

''I-I hated him for s-so long, a-a-and now that he's gone...'' He stutters, barely being able to get a word out. 

''It's okay. You're okay. You're here, in my arms.'' Yoongi comforts. He's holding back tears, heavy tears. 

Yoongi doesn't cry in front of people, or at all. So seeing Jimin in that situation where he could've lost his life, almost broke him. 

''He needs some rest,'' Jin suggests, and Yoongi agrees, picking him up, and taking him up the stairs to his room. He closes the door behind him and sits on the bed with Jimin wrapped around him. 

Hearing the short teary breaths Jimin is letting out, finally gets to him, and his tears stream down his face. After a few seconds, Jimin can feel the wetness on his shoulder and lifts his head to look at him. 

''Baby, are you crying, why are you crying?'' Jimin touches his face, his eyes already red like his. 

''I can't even imagine if Damon shot you today. Seeing him point that gun to your head, and that after shooting your dad, he could've shot you.'' His voice is wavering. ''I could've-'' He stops himself, not wanting to finish the sentence. 

''Hey, I'm here. Alive and a tiny bit traumatized, but alive.'' Jimin kisses him. 

''I can't lose you Jimin, not again, not ever.'' Yoongi looks at him, the words are beyond sincere. 

''And you won't. Not again, not ever.'' Jimin reassures. 

Yoongi kisses him, biting down on his bottom lip. At the moment, Yoongi just wants to lay in bed all night, holding on to Jimin knowing that he's safe and Jimin just wants to do the same. So, he pulls away and drops back on the bed, lying there, silently wrapped around each other.

''Hearing you say that Jimin had a gun to his head spooked me. You could've been shot.'' Jin expresses his concern, as he straddles me in a silk robe.
