When I Think Of You | A Short Story | Jimin Fanfic

1/2

When I see you, you make every fiber in my body smile.

When I hear you, your voice is a melodic song to my ears, I never want to stop listening.

When I touch you, it feels like lighting shot up my fingertips, electrifying.

When I think of you...

August 14, 2015

We were always friends. We grew up together, we were never apart, therefore we did everything together.

One day after the other, we made new memories and had exciting adventures.

We went through middle school, made friends.
Then highschool came and it was a bit rough, but we got through it.

We always hung out with the same friends, this group of just one girl and seven boys.

Me and you were the closest, but I grew closer to each of the other boys as we grew older.

Each of them had their own unique colors. But I always came back to you.

Eleventh grade. Your family was moving away, you weren't going to be with me much longer.

I was staying back in Seoul, while you were moving to the UK.

You were studying abroad and your dad got a new and improved job in England. London, England.

I was left behind with the other boys. But before you left, you said one final thing to me that I held onto for the rest of the time you were gone until today.

We were at your house, we were up on the roof, looking at the sunrise. It would be our last one together. I thought.

It was the beginning of fall, so the air was a bit chilly.
You gave me your jacket. You were taller, so it fit me well.

You turned towards me and looked deeply into my eyes and caressed my hands with your own.

"August-ah I will be gone. For a while. You may not see me. Or feel me. Or even hear me. But you can always think of me. Think of me and all our dreams we had. Think of all the good things we have gone through together and what we will go through as soon as we see eachother again. This will not be our last sunrise, and the sunset will surely not be our last either. As long as you are here on this earth and I'm here too, we are watching the sky together. Think of me when you watch the colors fade together. Promise? I wanted to tell you, not in these standards, but I wanted you to know that I will wait for you. Will you wait for me? I will count down the days until I get to see your beautiful face again-"

Your fingers painted against my cheeks. You put a stray piece of hair behind my ear. You leaned in closer but not close enough.

"-I will never love another woman like I love you. I promise you, August. From this day forward, I may not be here with you, but you are mine. Don't let anyone else have you. Keep yourself for me and your purity for me too. Promise me that you will do all of those things like I will you."

You came even closer, I got anxious, I closed that space and closing that space made us fly into oblivion. All I could see was the back of my eyelids as my eyes were closed and my lips were on yours. With that kiss we shared. I promised that I would never let anyone else be this close to me except for you. You were the one I was supposed to be with. You were the first and only person I see as perfect. From that day forward, I would look up at the sky, thinking of us, and this moment we shared on the rooftop of your house.

August 1, 2016

It's been a year since you left, I held up.

Me and the boys haven't stopped hanging out, they know I miss you the most.

I'm doing good in school, junior year was hard without you, but I think that I've gotten better senior year.

I was thinking of studying abroad for college in the UK. We could see eachother again.

Every day after the last class of the day I always stop by your house. Well your old house.

I'm never alone, If you wanted to know. Out of all the boys, Namjoon was always there for me the most and knew how it felt to lose someone close to you.

Taehyung is so flirty and such a big baby, I wish you were to see how Jungkook grew up. He's taller than me now.

To be honest,Yoongi has been really distant since you left. More than usual. I think we all just miss you. But I think I miss you just a little bit more.

I really haven't been eating that much, I just haven't been hungry. But Jin always makes me. He doesn't leave me alone until he sees me eat a full course meal before bed.

I think we made really good friends. Hoseok is still the brightest star. He tends to see the positive side of things. I need that right now.

Today is the last day of school. I'm going to be going to college soon. I passed exams well, I kept telling myself that I wouldn't be able to see you if I didn't do well.

We haven't got to call, I promise that I've been trying. I always leave voicemails, your mom said that you've been really busy. I'm sorry for bothering.

I miss you. I miss you so much that I wear that jacket you gave me all the time. I'm going to college. Not in the UK, but hopefully you will come back soon. I study hard. But sometimes I have these moments when all I think about is you, and another girl. You probably have a girlfriend. You've probably forgotten about me. But I still promised you. I will keep that promise.

I hope you get breaks. That you aren't working all the time. Is your dad pushing you? I know he can be like that.

My birthday is coming up soon. I wish you would at least text me or call me. Just your voice would be reassuring. I think I'm asking too much.

Namjoon's Point of View

I am not going to lie about the situation. August has been terrible lately. She has definitely gotten worse. She never eats or interacts with anyone else except for me and the boys. It's like Jimin was the reason she was out onto this earth.

"Hyung, August's birthday is coming up. I think we should invite Jimin Hyung down. For Auggies sake."

Jungkook misses the way August lit up when they all hung out and played video games together. They never do that anymore, especially now that Jimin's gone and she's started going to college.

"Good idea, Kookie. We should. Go get the other boys and tell them we are having a meeting."

He smiles and runs up the stairs. I turn off the TV and clean up the living room.

Once all the boys pile down the stairs and into the main room, I clear my throat and stand in front of everyone.

"Okay! So everyone knows, or at least I hope you do, that August's 20th birthday is coming up. Kookie, had the bright idea of throwing a surprise party for her, and inviting Jimin to come down for about a week or two. What do you guys think?"

"Can she handle seeing him after such a long time?"

Yoongi asked. He really cares for August's mental and emotional health.

"I think it is better if we follow through with it. They both need to see each other."

I confessed. I think it's settled.

"Then my idea is the best! Can we all go out to eat now? I'm starving.."

We all laughed and went out to eat.
