The park was empty,the duo had a thing for empty parks.They liked the silence and the peace that came with it.Taehyung was gazing longingly at the little squirrel going places to it's whims.Jimin had eyes only for Taehyung.The rising sun shed a streak of golden rays over his face,glow spreading over Taehyung's skin.The boy was oblivious.Jimin's eyes travelled onto his hands placed on his either sides,he hesitated.
He was bound to regret his action later but he still couldn't stop as his hand moved like it had it's own mind and chased after Taehyung's hand.Taehyung's hand was still cold from the morning breeze,the contact had him turn around towards Jimin at once.Jimin knew he messed up because what was he supposed to reply if Taehyung asks why.They are just- friends,right? Jimin withdrew his hand in haste and no more had the sense where his hand should be.But Taehyung reached for it,grabbing the smaller fist into his,letting them open up and intertwining.He continued his gaze back onto the squirrel,leaving Jimin in confusion but nevertheless he tried his best to keep the blush that rose up on his cheeks down.

Taehyung had fallen asleep and was on his way to slumber land,his meds kicking in lightly.He felt so tired and drained,both physically and mentally and didn't almost wanted to get up and open the door for whoever that was pounding on it and trying to blow it up.He dragged himself out of the bed,swaying side ways as the blood rushed in a quick motion causing him to trip.He managed to get to the door and opened to reveal a distressed Jisoo and an equally worried Namjoon.
"What happened?",Taehyung shook his head to sense his surroundings more clearly as he looked from Jisoo to Namjoon.
"Is Jimin here?",Jisoo rushed.
"No",Taehyung was confused,"What's wrong Jisoo?"
"I'll go ask Hoseok",Namjoon departed, almost immediately."What happened to Jimin?",Now Taehyung was in his full senses.
"You tell me what happened here, Tae.He called me crying and it took us time to get into the campus.Now,I can't find him.He wouldn't pick his phone up.You tell me where he is"
Taehyung's heart dropped into the pit of his stomach,dread already creeping up his chest.Taehyung had assumed Jimin left to pratice or went to see Jungkook maybe.Taehyung sucked in a breath so heavy and followed Jisoo out of the room."Did you check the practice rooms?",Taehyung enquired and Jisoo assured she did.
"I'll go look for Jungkook,Maybe he is with him",Jisoo said taking a left to the sports faculty dorm.
"I..I'll be in T5",He took off without waiting for Jisoo's answer.Taehyung was growing dizzier by the minute,he full well knew he should be in bed by now.The worries about Jimin that clouded him was prior to any other problems he had at the moment.He mustered up all the energy and ran.Something in him told him Jimin will be in T5.Jimin had always found quite places when he was down,he'd be there.The red string always does it's magic anyways.Taehyung could hear his own footsteps loud against the pavement,sweat dripping off his forehead that the wind swept away.This part of the campus was remote to the others,tall trees with resting benches aligned randomly to face the small lake.He rounded by the edge once and came back to where he started.Taehyung's leg was giving away,shaking and aching.That's when he noticed a hunched up figure on a far bench.Hands folded over legs that pulled closer to the chest.Taehyung sighed as he took cautious foot steps.And just to make sure,he called out,almost a whisper,"Jiminah.."
The figure raised it's head slowly,It was indeed Jimin.Earphones jutting out from both ears and tears that drained against the cheek.The faint pavement light illuminated Taehyung's face as Jimin studied it.A wide smile spread across Taehyung's face."Found you",He breathed and in slow motion,he saw a blur of Jimin's poker face turn into an alarmed one and a seering pain on his forehead as his head hit the curb.
-
Taehyung woke up and immediately felt the pain on his head intensify.He had no idea how he got back into his room and judging by the sounds,he could sense there were a bunch of people around him.They were talking in hushed tones and Taehyung could recognize all of the owners.
"It's your fault",Jisoo was saying.
"It's not his fault,Jisoo",Where did Jin even come from.
"Yes,It is.If he'd had picked up the damn phone",Yoongi sided with Jisoo on blaming Jimin."Tae knows it's not healthy for him to go out,Still he went.Whose fault is that then?",Jin counter acted.Taehyung was thinking of disowning his elder cousin just then.
"Why is it not healthy?",Taehyung recognized Jimin's calm but non chalant voice.Calm but Taehyung felt it foolish to almost hear a concern.He knew either Jin or Yoongi was going to answer him and he didn't want that to happen.Luckily Namjoon intervened,"Jisoo,we have to go else they won't let us out"There was a lot of shuffling and people saying goodnight to each other and the door opening.
"I know you hate him,but please take care of him or you can just call one of us.Yoongi is just a floor away",Jin said,hesitating.There was no reply from Jimin.Maybe he nodded.The door closed and then there was silence.No shuffling,no one breathing but then Jimin's voice came,"They all left.You don't have to pretend to be asleep anymore"Almost immediately Taehyung's surprised Pikachu face made it's appearance.He looked at Jimin as the guy rounded his own bed and sat at the edge looking at Taehyung.Taehyung thought Jimin was going to yell at him something or worse,ask him something but he didn't.He just shuffled into his own bed,hands stretching to turn off the light and turned to face the wall.
"Don't come looking for me",Jimin said after a moment of silence.
"You know I always will",Taehyung replied almost immediately.Jimin only scoffed.A/n:
