Am too lazy to proofread so excuse any mistakes...

  

After clearing everything up, things didn't just magically return to the way it was. Things were awkward, Yoongi drowning in guilt, not feeling deserving of Jungkook, and Jungkook withdrawn after reopening old wounds that he just wanted to let go of. It was easy to tell that their relationship was strained and conversations became hard. Even so, they refused to leave each other's side, always wanting to be close to one another. Unable to bear the thought of Jungkook feeling uncomfortable around him, Yoongi decided to propose the idea of therapy.

The younger was apprehensive at first, he didn't want to tell a stranger about his ordeals. All he wanted was to bury his past as deep and as far away as possible. However, after Yoongi explained how he used to go to therapy for his lack of self-care and anger issues and the way it helped, Jungkook relented easily. He did not want to cause anymore trouble and somewhere deep inside, he truly hoped that it would help make things between him and Yoongi normal again.

"I promise it'll help, Jungkook. How about I just book one session for you so you can try it out. If you don't think it will help you then you won't have to go anymore. I'll sign you up for one-on-one sessions so you can have privacy and not have me disturb you." Yoongi tried to persuade the younger, thinking that it would work only to hear a soft sob coming from the younger.

"W-why? Do you not want to g-go with me? I wanted you to be there. I don't wanna go alone, why are you making me go a-alone?" Jungkook felt the tears that stung his eyes fall down his cheeks, making him rub at his eyes to hide just how lost and scared he was at the idea of taking such big steps without Yoongi.

Yoongi was startled, he truly thought that the younger would prefer to have privacy which is why he even suggested one-on-one sessions in the first place. After all, why would Jungkook want the cause of this whole mess to even be there, right? Yoongi might just accidentally hurt him or fuck up in some way. Even so, seeing the younger looking so upset at the prospect of Yoongi not being there made him reach out to younger, to hug him and comfort him.

However, Yoongi stopped short just before he could touch the younger, thinking about how the last time he reached out and touched the younger, it only gave the younger pain. "Jungkook, no, that's not it. I- I hurt you, Jungkook. I thought that it would be best for you to have privacy during therapy, I don't want to make you uncomfortable or feel like you're unable to truly express yourself just because I was there."

"Yeah, you hurt me at that time, b-but we moved past that. You're not the one hurting me now, it's... it's my past that's coming back to haunt me. I already forgave you so please. Please d-don't leave me. S-stay by my side. Don't make me go through this alone, hyung..." Jungkook looked at Yoongi full of desperation, reaching his hands towards Yoongi's and pulling him close enough to practically glue himself to the elder.

Yoongi felt his own eyes sting hearing Jungkook's words and to feel the younger shaking against him, Yoongi can't help but feel relieved that his presence and physical contact still served as a comfort blanket for the younger. Gently, he leaned down and wrapped his arms around Jungkook's torso, the younger immediately latching onto his back with his arms slung over the older male's shoulders. Yoongi lifted Jungkook up into his arms with a little struggle and made his way towards their bed, lying down with the younger on top of him.
