Promise? (Jimin x reader)

Chapter 29

My mind is racing and my blood is rushing through my veins. Why is this happening? This is the downfall that I was so worried about. I knew something bad would happen in exchange for this amazing life. My best friend since day one is now gone and turned her back on me and half of the members are mad at the other half.

Jimin's phone chimes and he looks at the message. After scanning the screen, he sets it on the table for us to read. Since I can't read in Korean, Hoseok translates for me.

"They're saying that once Jimin starts focusing on the tour more then we'll be back to normal again."

Jimin says something in Korean raising his voice a little.

"Jimin says that he is focused and doesn't know what they're talking about, which we agree with him."

I nod and look over at Jimin. He looks stressed, I don't blame him. I'm stressed also, but him and his friends are more important to fix than me and Jee. They're the most popular band in the world right now! We cannot be fighting.

"I want to get them back," Jimin says.

"Revenge!" Tae yells punching the air.

"Noo! No revenge. We have to settle this somehow. We have a world tour to finish for the Lords sake! Fighting will not help!"

We all hang our heads low, but agree with Hobi. If we want to settle this, conflict cannot be a factor.

*the next day*

I wake up next to Jimin in my bed. It's concert day, which means it's conflict day. Oh boy. Groaning, I sit up and stretch my arms.

"Goodmorning," I hear a small voice beside me say. Smiling, I look back at Jimin. "Goodmorning, Jimin."

Tae and Hobi stayed in my room also last night. We were all pretty tired from the stress last night and crashed. Hopefully today doesn't go too bad.

We all get ready and head off to the stage. While doing sound check, I stay backstage where I can see them to see how everything goes. Things between the guys seem to be going fine, except for the fact that some of them are giving the others the silent treatment. I feel so bad. I keep thinking of ways that I can help, but how can I help when there's Jee also.

A few minutes later, Taehyung trips over a wire and bumps into Jungkook. Jungkook yells at him and walks away leaving a sad puppy-eyed Tae Tae. Aw, poor Tae. I want to walk up to him and hug him so bad right now, but I can't. Some of the fans seem to notice somethings off, but don't think much about it. I hope a rumor doesn't start up about it.

During the concert, they all seemed perfectly fine with each other due to not wanting to worry ARMY's, but I could still feel the tension between them. I can't bare to watch it anymore. I walk way backstage and find a water machine. Taking a small paper cup, I fill it halfway with water and take a drink. Not even this water can wash down the lump of guilt in my throat.

I turn around to go back to my spot backstage and make eye contact with Jee. Her eyes for a moment screamed with sadness, worry, or even regret, but then looks away and acts as if I'm not even here. Sighing, I walk back and continue watching the rest of the show.

The concert ends and they walk backstage.

"Good job guys!" I say smiling cheerfully. Jin, Yoongi, and Jungkook walk past, Yoongi slightly smiling back, and Jimin, Taehyung, and Hobi say thank you and go in for a group hug. Namjoon says thank you and smiles walking back with the others. He's still mad at the fact that we're all mad at each other, but he's being mature about it all. Namjoon, I can tell, seems very annoyed. Namjoon... wait, that's it!

Jimin, Tae, and Hobi come back to my room when we got back to the hotel.

"I think I know how to fix this," I say. They all look at me eye-wide and confused.

"Namjoon! We tell him that we don't want to fight and we're looking for peace and maybe he will help us! He is the leader, so maybe they will listen to him."

Hobi stands up smiling big. "You are a GENIUS, Y/N! How did we not think of that?"

*At Namjoon's room*

"No," Joon says.

"Huh?" Jimin responds. "But why not? We just want peace!"

Namjoon sighs and looks down. "I know. As much as I want to help you, you have to learn how to fix the problems you started."

We all look at each other blankly. Who will listen to us? They're just going to yell at us or something.

"Listen," Joon starts, "we have our last performance here tomorrow and then we're off to Paris. You guys have to get your acts together. I can't do that for you."

Well, he's right. We need a master plan.

We walk back to my room hopeless and open the door to Yoongi on the couch watching television. "It's about time you come back. You were taking forever."

"Ah! Yoongs, what are you doing in here?" Taehyung yells.

He turns off the TV and stands up. "I hate fighting and I hate getting revenge on my own friends. I want it to end, but it can't unless you focus more on the tour and less on your love life, sorry Y/N."

I shake my head. "Hey, no hard feelings."

Jimin turns a dark shade of red but closes his eyes and breathes. "I am focused. If you want me to practice more then I will, if that's what you're hinting at."

Yoongi nods. "And," I can see Jimin's expression change, "we want you to not become distant and forget about us."

Jimin seems confused and a bit hurt. "Why would I? I could never forget about you guys, we are family."

Yoongi shrugs and starts walking out the door. "Just give them some time. I'm not on sides anymore." And he leaves closing the door behind him.

"That was interesting," Tae says staring at the door.

*the next dayayay*

The guys are doing another round of soundcheck and i'm, of course, backstage watching to see if anything bad happens. I hope not, but I just want to make sure. Jungkook starts walking toward me, but then cuts past me. I follow him with my eyes to see Jee come up out of nowhere and they start kissing passionately as if they've been together for months. It's kinda gross.

As my brain is puking, Jee turns her head toward me and smirks as they go further backstage. She is not, I swear if that little bi—

"Hey Y/N, you okay?"

I whip my head around to see Jimin. My heart flutters as I look at him. "I'm great now," I say smirking at him. He raises an eyebrow and laughs.

"Yeah yeah, you're cute."

I don't know why, but when he says that it makes me feel giddy. I love it.

"But seriously, what's wrong?" he asks. "I know there's something."

I shrug. "It's nothing really. I guess just tense about the whole situation. It's not even your fault, Jungkook's side doesn't even want to try and help fix it. They just want to piss us off." I cross my arms and look back toward where Jungkook and Jee left.

Jimin hugs me, not too tight, and looks into my eyes. "We won't fight forever. We're family, we fight all the time." He smiles and kisses my forehead, which takes me by surprise, but I smile back in return. "Don't worry," he says and winks as he walks back into the stage. He's such a flirt, but I love it.
