PRINCE

Thank you all for reading my story so far and giving me a chance, I truly appreciate every single one of you.💓

Jimin watched with his mouth agape as Yoongi simply left the studio after that.

His face crimsoned in humiliation, shit, he thought.

He was too entranced in Yoongi and entirely forgot about his own sweaty body in the process. He glanced down at his hands and almost sickened at the thought of how he had shut his eyes, believing Yoongi was going to kiss him..

He groaned and leaned his forehead upon the wall. That was so fucking embarrassing.

Nevertheless, he decided to take Yoongi's advice and go rinse the blood, sweat and tears off of himself.

As Jimin showered, there were multiple recurring thoughts that wouldn't leave his mind no matter how laboriously he tried to rid of them.

What's up with all of the members lately?

Why do I feel this way?

Why are they all being like this towards me?

Why did Jungkook.. do that?

Why didn't I stop him?

I thought Yoongi hyung liked Hoseok?

Fuck, I thought Jungkook was straight?

He groaned loudly in annoyance, pulling his hair brutally to try and stop these irrational thoughts.

He sighed, not knowing if he prefers the members as they were now or before.

Before, wherein they would shower Jimin in love regularly; but also subconsciously discard him and his notions, babying him and allowing him to have little to no input on their meetings because he was 'just too cute for adult talks'.

Or, present time, where they are all of a sudden being 'adult' with him and finally seeing him as a man - though also raising his anxiety by injurious amounts opposed to before.

From being neglected for pretty much his entire life, this abrupt... attention and being perceived as a grown-up now makes him feel funny and almost uncomfortable in a sense.

Does he crave their babying and their love? Is that it?

But then again why is he so against the idea of being treated his age?

Now that he has it, why does he lament ever wishing for it?

So many painful thoughts.

He shuts his eyes painstakingly, and reminisces a memory from over a year ago.

"Tae!" Jimin snickers as he strives to run away from Taehyung - only resulting in being cornered due to his inability to see as he was smiling too much.

"Oh, shit!" Jimin said, twirling around with enlarged eyes as Taehyung advanced to him.

"What did I just say about swearing?"

Jimin covered his mouth immediately, "Fuck, sorry! Totally didn't mean to do that.."

"That's it!" Jimin attempted to run upon hearing Taehyung's words, but instead got caught by the waist and hoisted over Taehyung's shoulder with ease.

Taehyung laughed at Jimin's hopeless endeavours to be placed down and just coolly strolled to the sofa.

He set Jimin down onto the smooth material, promptly sitting on top of him in a straddling position so that he couldn't move.

"Aw, poor baby. How are you going to escape now?" Taehyung announced, grinning, bringing his slender fingers closer to Jimin's neck.

Jimin squirmed uncontrollably, pleading with widened eyes as he knew what was about to occur. "Please, Tae! Taehyung, I'm sorry! I won't do it again, pleas-"

Though, his pitiful alleges were futile as he suddenly exploded out into a fit of laughter at the feel of being tickled, shouting loudly at Taehyung's hold on his neck whilst attempting weakly to shove him away.

"Are you gonna swear again, hm? Especially after me and the others have told you not to?" Taehyung declared playfully, snickering fondly at Jimin shaking his head rapidly.

"I-I won't- please- Tae- Stop!"

Taehyung gazed down at him softly, letting Jimin go but not moving from his straddling position.

"I'm not getting off of you until you promise, Chim." He asserted innocently, chuckling heartily.

"Tae, you're so evil~", Jimin whined in irritation, his lips also curving up.

"Jimin." Taehyung remained still with an eyebrow raised, anticipating his promise.

"Fine." Jimin groaned, "I promise I won't swear.."

Taehyung broke out into a smile. He leaned down and pecked Jimin on his plush cheek, before getting off of him. "Good boy."

"Wait, I'm not done."

To this, Taehyung looked over at Jimin expectantly, "Yes?"

"I promise I won't swear until you got off of me!" Jimin said childishly, muttering profanities he knew Taehyung would hear, before running away to another room.

"Jimin, that's not how it wo-" Taehyung rubbed his temple in misery, before settling into a fit of laughter. "Oh, fuck it." He said, "I'M COMING FOR YOU, JIMIN!!"

They both yelled at eachother, Taehyung chasing after Jimin with their not-so-quiet laughter resonating throughout the entire house.

——

Jimin subsequently cracked his eyes open, peering around to be met in the shower, disremembering where he was momentarily after an agonising trip down memory lane.

He sighed gently, suddenly finding the plain walls interesting to look at. Not even caring to wipe away the tears that were cascading down his cheeks, letting them mix in with the shower.
