Suprise!!! Another update!!! Hehehe♥️

______________________________________

Jin and Taehyung arrived at the mansion, expecting to find Yoongi already home. "Jungkook, is Yoongi upstairs?"

Jungkook, who was seated in the living room, seemed unaware of Yoongi's whereabouts. "Huh? No, he's not back yet."

"What? But he got off the bus before us. He should have been here by now." Tae said as he and Jin exchanged worried glances, realizing that Yoongi hadn't reached home despite leaving the bus earlier.

"Something might have happened on his way back. Jungkook, can you track his mobile?" Jin asked, hoping to locate him.

"Sure, I'll check."

Taehyung nodded in agreement, "Yeah, if his phone's still on, we can find him easily." He said.

"Got it. Let me check." Jungkook nodded and started his work.

He quickly tracked Yoongi's phone, his fingers flying over the keyboard as he worked to pinpoint the location. After a few tense minutes, he finally succeeded, locating his phone nearby.

"Hyung, I found his phone. It's nearby," he announced, his expression serious. "We can get there quickly if we take the car."

Jin nodded, his concern evident with each passing second. "Let's go," he replied, his voice firm as he gestured for Taehyung to follow. "We need to find him as soon as possible."

Jin's heart raced as he drove with Taehyung by his side. Each passing moment only heightened his concern for Yoongi. Finally, they arrived at the location given by Jungkook's tracking.

Exiting the car, Jin examined the area, his nerves on edge. "Is this the right place?" Taehyung's question echoed his hyung's own thoughts.

Jin nodded grimly. "Yes, this is the place," he confirmed, his voice low and tense. "We need to find him quickly."

His heart pounded fast as he followed the locator's signal in his phone, each step heavier as it finally made him stand infront of the basement's door.

Taking a deep breath, he called out, "Yoongi!", his voice echoing in the night. Taehyung joined in, their combined voices piercing the silence, "Yoongi hyung!" but there was no response, only the quietness of the surroundings.

With no sign of Yoongi, Jin and Taehyung exchanged a look. Without hesitation, they attempted to break down the door.

After several forceful strikes, the door gave way, splintering as it collapsed inward.

As they entered the darkened room, they heard faint murmurs of someone.

Taehyung took his phone and flickered it to life, casting a glow across the room. They followed the sound until the phone's light fell upon a trembling form, huddled in the corner, his face buried in his knees.

It was Yoongi.

Relief washed over them at the sight of the mafia, but it was quickly overshadowed by concern for his obvious distress.

Jin's voice cut through the tension-filled air, filled with concern and urgency as he called out, "Yoongi!"

But before they could reach him, Yoongi retrieved a dagger from his pocket, his hands trembling as he shouted and stuttered, "S-Stay back! Don't come a-any closer!"

Jin and Taehyung froze in shock, their eyes wide at Yoongi's sudden aggression.

"Yoongi, it's us. It's Jin and Tae. We're here to help." Jin said, trying to help him.

Despite their reassurances, Yoongi's voice quivered with fear as he warned, "I-I'll hurt you if you come near me!"

Taehyung's eyes widened in shock, "Hyung, what's wrong with you?"

But Yoongi's panicked shouts drowned out their questions, his desperation evident as he continued to back away in the corner, holding the weapon.

Jin took a small step forward, his voice calm and gentle, "Yoongi, please. We're not here to harm you. Let us help."

It was evident that something had deeply unsettled Yoongi, his behavior showing a sense of mistrust. Ignoring his protests, Jin pressed on, closing the distance between them with cautious move.

As he stood before him and squatted down, he reached out to restrain Yoongi's hand, catching it firmly before he could attack him with the dagger.

Jin started to reassure him, urging him to recognize him, "Yoongi, it's Seokjin!"

But feeling Yoongi's frantic thrashing against his hold, Jin's heart sank with helplessness. "Yoongi, calm down!"

But Yoongi's shouts only grew louder, his desperation echoing off the walls of the basement. "Leave me alone! Get away from me!" he screamed.

"Listen to me, Yoongi." Jin commanded, his tone firm yet  desperate. "You're safe. We're trying to help you."

But Yoongi's struggles continued, his breathing ragged as he fought against Jin's hold. "No, no, no!" he shouted, "I won't trust anyone! Just go away!"

"Yoongi, please," Jin pleaded, his voice cracking with emotion. "I won't leave you. Please recognise me!"

As he still didn't get any better, Jin cupped his face firmly as he shouted. "MIN YOONGI!"

The stern tone jolted Yoongi back to reality, his breaths coming in ragged gasps as he blinked rapidly, trying to focus through the haze of fear and confusion.

But then Tae and Jin's eyes widened at the sight as they saw something unexpected.

Tears welled in Yoongi's eyes, falling down his cheeks as he let out a small, trembling cry, his hands shaking as he hid his face in his sleeve.

Concern etched across his features, Jin gently reached out to him. "Hey, hey," he said softly, his voice laced with worry. "Yoongi, what's wrong?"

Both of them panicked at the sight of Yoongi crying, their hearts were heavy.

In a swift motion, Jin pulled him into a tight embrace, holding him close as suprisingly Yoongi clung to him.

Amidst his tears, he managed to mumble, "I w-wanna go home, please. I don't want to be here."

Sensing his distress, Tae went into action. "I'll start the car. Don't worry, I will wait for you two," he said quickly. Jin nodded as Tae hurried off to start the car, leaving him to be with Yoongi.

Jin's heart sank as he watched the younger's tears continue to fall, his own eyes misting with tears. "Yoongi, what happened?" he asked gently, his voice soft with concern.

But Yoongi only repeated his plea, his voice choked with emotion. "I wanna go home... I don't want to be here anymore."

Jin's heart broke at his words. "We'll go back soon, I promise," he said softly, his hand gently rubbing Yoongi's hands.

As he tried to pull back from the hug, Yoongi clung to him desperately, his voice trembling. "No! D-Don't leave me, please... I want to go away from here!" he pleaded, his grip tightening around Jin as if afraid to let go.

Jin's heart shattered at his words as he felt a wave of guilt wash over him. "I'm so sorry, Yoongi, I should have been with you." he whispered, his voice choked with emotion as he continued to apologize, pressing tender kisses to Yoongi's forehead.

Yoongi clung to him tightly, his tears soaking his shirt as he buried his face against Jin's chest. Feeling Yoongi's grip tighten around him, the elder gently lifted him up, cradling him in his arms as Yoongi's legs wrapped him around his waist.

As they settled into the car, Taehyung started the engine and began driving back to the mansion. Yoongi remained nestled against Jin's chest, his tears gradually clearly.

Taehyung glanced at them through the rearview mirror, concerned as he drove carefully.

They then reached the mansion and Yoongi's sniffles were the only sound breaking the silence in the car. He continued to hide his face against Jin's chest. Taehyung brought the car to a stop and opened the door for them to step out.

Jin carefully supported Yoongi as they exited the car, the younger still clinging to him tightly while Jin holded him.

Upon seeing them enter, Jungkook approached with concern evident on his face, "What happe-"

But Taehyung quickly hushed him, telling him to lower his voice, mindful of Yoongi's sensible state. Jin whispered to them that he would take Yoongi to his room, ensuring his privacy and comfort.

With a nod from him, Taehyung and Jungkook watched as Jin made his way upstairs, Yoongi still cradled in his arms.

He gently made him lie down on the bed, settling beside him as the younger's grip on his shirt remained firm. Yoongi snuggled close to him, seeking comfort in his presence, while Jin sighed softly, feeling quite concerned.

He tenderly patted Yoongi's head, peppering kisses atop. Jin was really puzzled.

The mafia had always concealed his feelings, but what had troubled him to the point that he started crying?

There was only the dim glow of the night lamp in the room with all the screens shut closed and Jin moved to turn it off, assuming Yoongi was ready to sleep.

However, Yoongi suddenly jolted and started to plea, "No! Don't turn off the light..!" he shouted which caught Jin off guard. He quickly reassured him, "Alright, calm down, I won't turn it off." He said as he retracted his hand from the switch, returning to his previous position.

He promised him that he wouldn't turn off the lights, understanding that it seemed to cause Yoongi distress.

Yoongi gradually calmed down, the gentle kisses from Jin's lips soothing his troubled mind. As his breathing steadied and his body relaxed, he felt the weight of exhaustion settle over him. "It's alright, Yoongi. I am here by your side."

Yoongi soon drifted into a peaceful slumber. Sensing his deepening sleep, Jin carefully freed himself from the younger's embrace, making sure to cover him fully with the duvet.

Once he ensured Yoongi was comfortable and asleep, he quietly slipped out of the room. He then decided to call a doctor to check on him.

After four hours, Yoongi jolted awake, his heart racing as he glanced around and found a figure standing beside the bed, holding a knife.

Reacting instinctively, he lunged at the person, his hands wrapping around their neck while he took the knife from their grasp, ready to launch it into their eyes. But before he could strike, voices pierced through his haze of confusion, shouting for him to stop.

It was Jin and Taehyung's urgent shout that snapped Yoongi back to reality. His grip tightened momentarily before he released his hold, the realization sinking in that the person he was hovering over was Jungkook, who was innocently cutting an apple.

Jin rushed to Yoongi's side, his hands gentle as he tried to calm him. Taehyung, meanwhile, swiftly took away the knife from Yoongi, slightly angry at him for attacking his Jungkook. "What the hell, hyung? What were you thinking?"

Jin's voice was filled with concern as he spoke softly to Yoongi, trying to soothe his heavy breathing. "Yoongi, it's okay. Just breathe slowly."

Yoongi's confusion was palpable as he turned to Jin. "Where... where am I?"

Jin's response was calm, yet tinged with concern, as he said, "You're in my room, Yoongi. We're in the mansion."

The realization slowly sank in for Yoongi and he glanced around the room, trying to piece together what had just happened.

Jungkook winced slightly as he sat up on the bed, rubbing his neck. Taehyung remained by his side, clearly concerned.
"Hyung, what happened? Why did you...?"

Yoongi's troubled expression didn't escape from their eyes as he said, "I..I'm sorry... I don't know what came over me..."

Jungkook and Taehyung exchanged worried glances, silently urging Jin to intervene. As Jin approached them to tell them to wait outside, leaving Yoongi's side, Yoongi suddenly pulled him close that caught everyone off guard.

Curiosity mixed with concern as they watched Yoongi cling to Jin, his whispered plea echoing in the tense atmosphere. "D-Don't leave me." He said, his voice trembling as he added, "Please."

Jin quickly motioned for Tae and Jungkook to leave the room and they did quietly, giving them their privacy.

Jin then gently sat beside Yoongi on the bed, whose back was facing the headboard. He spoke softly, his tone gentle and reassuring. "Yoongi, talk to me. What's troubling you?"

"I-I just.." Yoongi stuttered, his words catching in his throat. His hands trembled slightly, before he even began to speak. Jin noticed it and gently took his hands in his own, "It's okay, Yoongi. You don't have to force yourself."

The elder started to massage his hand and couldn't help but blame himself for everything. "I'm so sorry. I shouldn't have left you alone. I promise, I'll stay with you from now on."

Yoongi muttered, a hint of annoyance in his voice as he looked down. "It's not even your fault."

But Jin shook his head, "No, it is my fault. I should have been more attentive to you. I should have stayed by your side."

He couldn't shake off the guilt, blaming himself for what Yoongi had experienced. "While you were sleeping, I called for a doctor. He mentioned that you seemed to be trembling even in your sleep, as if something had deeply frightened you." He said as he then hesitantly asked, "What happened after you left the college bus? Why do you seem so scared?"

But Yoongi hesitated, unsure of how to respond. "It's okay if you don't want to open up-"

But Yoongi interrupted him as he skook his head and started, "After I left the bus and was walking back here, one of the students we made friends with in the college rushed towards me, asking for help...He said that a senior was assaulting his friend and he needed my help asap. I..I followed him to a basement where he said his friend was trapped. But as soon as I entered, he pushed me inside, locked the door, and just ran away."

Jin sighed in frustration at the deceitful actions of the student, muttering a curse under his breath. "Fucking piece of.."

Yoongi caught the murmured words, but didn't say anything.

Jin then tilted his head, his gaze softening with concern as he asked, "But why were you so scared though?"

Yoongi hesitated, his words faltering as he struggled to let out the source of his fear. "It's just..th-the room was locked, and it was p-pitch black inside. A-And.." he hesitated but Jin patiently waited for him to continue as he rubbed his hands in comfort.

Yoongi let out a breath and sighed a little as he avoided Jin's gaze and continued, "Well, nobody knows this about me, but...

...I have nyctophobia. I'm afraid of the dark."
