"Wait for me, I will take you home," Taehyung said to Jin as they got off the plane.

"No, thank you. I can get home on my own." Jin gives sleeping Minji a kiss on her forehead and walks away from Taehyung.

"You are coming to work tomorrow, right?" Taehyung yells out to Jin, who was walking as fast as he could to get away from Taehyung.

"As long as you won't be there, I will be there," Jin yelled back and continued walking.

Taehyung couldn't help but laugh. Being with Jin in London unquestionably showed him another side of Jin. He had learned that Jin was someone who easily got shy if you gave him too much attention, but it also made him put his guard up even more as he was perplexed as to way Taehyung was trying to get close to him.

After their night at the movies, Jin did his best to stay away from Taehyung. He avoided Taehyung until they had to get back on the plane to fly home, which Taehyung tried his best to make sure they were sitting close. But Jin plugged up his ears with his AirPods as soon as Minji had fallen asleep.

Though it didn't stop Taehyung from trying to bother him. With the help and continual guidance, Taehyung made a pledge that he was going to do his best to prove to Jin that he could be trusted.

Jin was home feeling sad as he wanted badly to talk to Namjoon to get his opinion on what Taehyung was doing, but he couldn't bring himself to contact Namjoon. Upon arriving in London, he had found his phone which he was convinced he lost, in the suitcase he had checked onto the plane.

All while in London, Namjoon had called and texted him several times, but he never once picked up. He still wasn't over how Namjoon threw the secrets he trusted him with right back into his face. He showed him exactly why he shouldn't trust anyone, they all turn out to be the same in the end.

Therefore, he decided that instead of talking and confiding in Namjoon again, he was going to make an appointment with the therapist he was seeing, maybe she could help him understand the change in Taehyung's behavior.

But after twisting and turning for what seemed like hours in bed, Jin pulled out his phone and started scrolling through his contact list. As he browses over Hoseok name tempted to call him, his eyes trailed down to Jimin's name. It had been months since he had last spoken to his brother. Although Jimin had reached out to him almost every week, Jin never returned any of his calls.

Without much thought, he clicked on his brother's name.

Jimin was getting ready to go to bed when his phone lights up with the distinctive ringtone he had picked out for Jin. His eyes went wide, "oh my gosh he is calling me." Jimin yells while grabbing his phone.

"Who is calling you?"

"M-my brother."

"Then answer it," Jungkook said as he sat upon the bed and looked over at Jimin, who looked like he was going to have a panic attack.

"Hello?"

"Yes. Okay, I will be right there." Jimin hung up the phone and looked over at Jungkook, who was looking at him, hoping that it was something good.

"He wants me to come over to his house. He is going to text me his address." Jimin squealed in excitement.

"Is he okay?" Jungkook questioned while he got off the bed to get dress.

"I don't know, he didn't say, but he sounded okay. Although he is good at masking his emotions, so I don't really know. But once I get to see him, I will know." Jimin had tears falling down his cheeks as he ran around the room, pulling on a pair of pants, a sweatshirt and grabbed his phone off the bed.
