The Butterfly Code

November 8: 7am

Hoseok frowned, glancing at the time on his phone. He looked to the other bed in the room, where Jimin was scrolling through Twitter, before asking, "Shouldn't one of the hyungs called us for breakfast by now?"

Jimin glanced at him, then the time. Raising an eyebrow he nodded, "come on, let's go see if the others are awake,"

The dancers stood up leaving their room. Jimin went to check on Namjoon and Taehyung, while Hoseok visited Jungkook. The maknae was wide awake, playing a game on his computer. Hoseok chuckled, "Jk! Come on, it should be time to eat,"

Jungkook glanced back, turning off his game and standing up, "Are V hyung and Namjoon hyung already eating?"

"No idea," Hoseok shrugged, only to see Jimin walk out of Taehyung and Namjoon's room followed by the two boys.

"Wait- so none of us have been called for breakfast?" Namjoon frowned.

They all shook their heads. Taehyung sped down the hallway, only to glance back, "Guys, no one's in the kitchen. I don't think Jin hyung or Yoongi hyung have cooked anything yet,"

Sharing a glance, the five went to the eldest's two room. After Jin passed out yesterday and the cops took pictures of the room and mess, the idols got the okay to clean it up. So, for about three hours after lunch, the six of them cleaned up the bedroom and bathroom, being careful. They had already ordered a new mirror to replace the broken one. And Yoongi had ordered new speakers and keyboard. To be frank, the room was a lot better now. 

Jimin knocked on the door, calling out, "Hyungs?"

There was no answer. Hoseok heard Jungkook mutter, "That's weird," before the youngest opened the door himself. Walking inside, Hoseok gasped along with the other five. Yoongi and Jin were sitting on the oldest's bed, Jin crying softly in the rapper's shoulders.  Yoongi looked troubled, flickering his eyes over to them after they gasped.

"Hey," He greeted them softly.

"W-what's going on?" Hoseok asked all five of them sitting around the eldest two.

"He woke up crying.." Yoongi informed with a sad gaze, "First he cried. Then we talked for a while. And..now he's crying again,"

They all mimiced the frown. Yoongi patted Jin's back softly, "Hyungie? Jin hyungie? The other's are here..."

Jin sniffed, sitting up. Keeping his head hung, he wiped his face before looking up, "W-what's wrong?"

"Nothing, we just...it's 7 and realized we hadn't heard from either of you," Namjoon informed, "So we dropped by,"

Jin looked guilty, "Breakfast...I'm sorry. I'll go cook right n-"

"No," Jimin pleaded, grabbing Jin's hand, "Please...hyung you're upset..."

"Do you want to talk about it?" Jungkook offered.

Jin sniffled. He looked away, "I'm sorry about...yesterday. I don't know what happened to me.."

The mood dropped deeper. Namjoon looked down, Hoseok placing a hand on his friend's shoulder. 

"Hyung, I'm not going to lie to you and say I wasn't scared yesterday," Hoseok took the initiative, "I'm also not going to pretend it didn't hurt seeing you and hearing the words you said,"

Jin winced, looking away even farther. Hoseok went on, "But that doesn't mean I hate you. Or am angry at you. Hyung...you have depression. And something similar to the trauma you had with Jimin. And none of it is your fault..."
