"Jimin sit the fuck down. It's not the time to answer freaking calls. This is a fucking serious problem and we have hundreds of employees jobs in our hands right now." Hoseok roared angrily. 

Jimin sighed and silently sat back feeling a twist in his heart. You were calling him and he was unable to answer your call. There was a serious issue going down in the factory and everyone is so stressed about it. Specially Hoseok and Jimin as they were keeping everything down on the low so rumors wouldn't spread and go to media which will affect the business and stocks. 

According to an anonymous source, two of the factory workers have replaced this months imported materials with replicas before sending them to production. So they had to stop this week consignment which costs them a lot. Park Corporation has never gone through any scandals and they always had quality products and services. So they didn't want to risk anything by letting out these cheap materials. 

The board Directors pressured Jimin and Hoseok to keep it low and sort it out and find the culprits. If not they are ordered to fire everyone in the shipping and production sites. They didn't want to fire any innocent workers so Jimin and Hoseok have been stuck at the factory trying to narrow down the culprits. 

Jimin was having a really tough time. The stress of the factory, Aera's shocking news and the American project was eating him up. Overall he had to prepare for your birthday as well. So much was going on and Jimin was really exhausted. He feels terrible that he can't even talk to you properly. 

He misses you like crazy. But lately you seemed very distant. He tries to talk to you but you would just give him blank emotionless stare and ignore him. Whenever he calls you always seems uninterested to talk to him. What hurt the most was that you have stopped coming home to him.

 The past week has been really rough on him. Aera was so broken and Jimin really pitied her and tried his best to cheer her up the first two days. Things were good between them and his heart felt at ease to let go of all that hate and pain. 

Jimin's phone beeped with a message and he read it under the table as Hoseok was busy talking to a worker. Sometimes Hoseok scares the crap out of Jimin when he is crazy angry. Jimin's eyes lit up when he saw it was a message from you. 

My Princess - Just want to inform you that I'm going home early.

Jimin's brows furrowed in worry. He knows that you don't leave work unless something is wrong. Jimin quickly typed a reply.

Jimin - Is everything ok?

He waited and saw you typing but you didn't reply. The message was left on read and it made Jimin frown. He sent another message with a question mark and that was also left on read. Jimin could feel that something was not right. 

Jimin - Baby what's wrong? 

Jimin - Why are you not replying?

Jimin - Baby?

Fuck It! Jimin cursed and got up to go. "Where are you going?" Hoseok glared but Jimin didn't care anymore. He wanted to go to you soon as he was feeling uneasy.

 "I have to go Hobi. You can scold me all you want tomorrow." Jimin said unbothered by his friends fiery gaze. 

"Jimin this is important." Hoseok hissed.

"So is My Y/n." Jimin didn't wait for his friend to respond as he dashed out of the office room. He didn't care if everything was in crisis because in that moment he only cared about you.

Jimin pulled over in front of your apartment and rang the bell but you didn't answer. So he just punched the code and went inside and it was empty. He wondered where you are as he took out the phone to call you. Thankfully you answered and informed him that you are on your way from the store when he told you that he was at your place.

Jimin was tired and hungry. He never had a chance to even have a proper meal past few days. He felt like so many things are slipping out of his hand and everything felt like a mess. He sat down on your couch and rested his head back as he waited for you. 

After few minutes the door opened and you entered. Jimin's lips spread out into a smile and he stood up ready to hug you but you just avoided him. You just mumbled a 'Hey' and set your stuff down on the couch. Jimin frowned as he didn't fail to notice the awkwardness that found it's way in between you and him. He don't know what caused it but he was determined to fix it. 

"Are you ok?" he asked concerned looking at you as you tried to avoid looking at him. You just give a nod.

"Why are you avoiding me? Why won't you even reply to me?" He asks feeling the tension in the air. This isn't us! He thought as he felt a tug in his heart.

"I'm not. I was not feeling well." You lied and Jimin knew it immediately. You are good at hiding yourself in front of others but not in front of him. 

"Don't lie to me Y/n. I can see that something is wrong. You are not even looking at me." Jimin got near you and turned you to face him. He finally saw your puffed red eyes and emotionless face. His eyes widened and his heart panicked a little.

"Baby why were you crying? What's happening.. please tell me." Jimin suddenly pleaded making you meet his eyes.

"It's n-nothing." you brushed him off. 

"It's not nothing. Why are you being so distant right now?" you sigh at his words and close your eyes wishing to be alone. 

"Can we talk later please." you say looking back at him trying hard not to break down again.

"Seriously? I'm trying to fix whatever this awkwardness that is there between us and go back to how we were but you are not helping at all. I'm trying to be here for you y/n in midst of everything that's going right now. I'm here for you because I could feel that something is not right. I didn't leave a damn important discussion at the factory so that you could avoid me y/n."

"Oh I'm sorry for interrupting your precious Café date with Aera. Please feel free to go back to her. It's not like you care about me anymore anyways." You didn't know what came over you but you just snapped instead of hugging the man in front of you, who had a deep concerned look on his face. 

"What? What are you saying Y/n? I was at the factory working my ass off these days and here you are saying nonsense. Can you even understand what I'm going through right now?" Jimin looked at you as if you are crazy for accusing him.

"Oh so facts are nonsense now. Great... let me confirm another nonsense then. Where were you last night?" You questioned as anger and pain crawled your skin. Jimin frowned wondering what's wrong with you.

"Last night I was exhausted after overworking and got knocked out at Hobi's." Jimin said honestly but to you they were just lies. You thought he was lying because you are believing what your friends told you. You just scoffed at his face and looked away. Jimin's jaw clenched as he felt a weird pang in his chest.

"Are you suspecting me? Do you think I'm cheating behind your back?" he asks in pain. He is under so much pressure and arguing with you right now is killing him. 

"I don't know Jimin. Are you?" You ask coldly. Jimin furrowed his brows and stepped back feeling hurt. He could see that you are not believing him no matter how many times he begged you to do so. It really pissed off Jimin this time.

"God dammit! How many times should I tell you that I am not cheating on you. I have no intentions of doing so. Why the hell are you thinking like this. Why can't you understand that you are the only one for me Y/n? What happened to you? What's happening to us?" Jimin had an annoyed expression on his face. 

You could see that you doubting him is hurting him but you couldn't help it. All your life, you have never been loved and all the people around you just leaves you. Your so called best friend also left you, all you got in life was pain and betrayals. So you are really having a hard time right now not knowing who to trust anymore. Why would Yuna and Nari lie! But why would Jimin lie too? Y/n you better talk this out.

"Then why does your actions say otherwise Jimin? You barely talk to me these days. You barely text me. You are 24/7 with Aera. So close.. laughing, eating and joking together. You barely have time for me anymore because you are too busy with her. And there are already so many rumors about you two circulating among the staff and yet you expect me to be ok when I don't even know where you are and what you are doing. You are hiding your freaking calendar from me as well. So what the hell am I suppose to think?" you burst angrily with a tear rolling down your cheek. 

Jimin was suddenly dumbfounded by your outburst not knowing this is what you have been feeling all along. It's true that he didn't share the calendar with you but that was because he had so many preparations scheduled and reminders for your Birthday. He didn't want you to know any of that. Other than that there was nothing else going on.

He ate and spent a little time with Aera to clear the bad air between them since he found out the truth. It was too much for him to take in at that time and Aera suddenly being overwhelmed and sick worried him more. So he was just trying to cheer her up but nothing more. Aera is just his past but you are his present and his future. At first he thought somewhere in his heart that there might be feelings left for Aera because he truly did love her. But there was non. His heart is all filled with you and only you. He loves only you. Jimin took a deep breath in and looked at you seriously.

"I'm sorry for making you feel that way. I'm sorry that I was too busy to give the attention you deserve but Y/n you didn't make it easy as well. Every time I tried to talk to you, you would say that you have work and walk away. You were being awkward around me and I didn't know how else to approach you. I didn't know that you were bothered by Aera so much. But please don't misunderstand. It's true that she is my ex but now we are just business partners and friends only."

"Yeah I can see that. A friend who gets to see you more than me." you shot at him without thinking much. Jimin let out a frustrated sigh and stood there staring at you with hands on his hips. You stood there with your hands folded looking away. 

Jimin was angry but he didn't want to lash out at you or anyone. It was not your fault that he was under so much pressure and it was not your fault to feel this insecure. He could see the pain in your eyes but you rejecting him like this was more painful than what you are feeling right now. Jimin finally found his purpose and happiness. He found his real love. He was not going to let it all slip away. In a sudden movement he picked up your stuff and grabbed your hand and tugged on it. 

"What are you doing?" You frowned.

"We are going home." He pulled you along with him. Jimin is damn strong and his firm hold on you was impossible to remove.

"This.. is home." You say being stubborn but that didn't stop him. He put your things in his car and settled you in. Without another word he got in and started to drive. 

You had your gaze fixed out of the window arms folded feeling annoyed. No matter how mad and hurt you are, you still love Jimin to bits and pieces. You could see that you were hurting him by not trusting him but you couldn't help yourself. 

Don't be a fool Y/n. Why do you want to ruin everything that you have with this amazing man. Why can't you just put your insecurities away for once. You promised to love him Y/n. You promised to trust him and be by him. He makes you happy and he is right here with you. Not with Aera or anyone else. He is with you and have been with you for the past year. 

Your heart instantly skipped a beat when you felt Jimin's warm soft hand on your thigh. You looked down to see his fingers pressed down, grabbing your inner thigh gently. It was not in a perverted way, but in a heart warming way because it was a desperate hold on you. A hold to assure him that you are still his, a hold to assure him that you are here, a hold to assure him and you that everything is going to be alright and he is not giving you up.

See you dumb idiot! Look at his face.. look at the way he is holding on to you. He is in pain and yet he is in fear of losing you. Feeling your chest tightening you unfolded your arms and placed a hand on top of his. Without any hesitation he quickly grabbed your hand and held on to it with his dear life, tangling his fingers with yours. Non of you spoke but still it eased the hearts a little.

Once Jimin pulled up in front of his house, he got down to take your things as you remain seated. He silently opened the door for you and you got down to follow him nervously playing with your fingers.

He dropped your stuff and turned to make you sit on his sofa as he went down to sit on the floor in front of you. He let out a sigh and took your hands in his and covered them in a protective way before looking at you.

"Y/n.. your Home is here with me. I may not be able to spend much time with you during the day for couple of days.. But I will always come home to you I promise. So here after you will be staying with me and I want you to come home to me as well." 

Jimin's voice was so low and so smooth, but the the words he said were so heavy and so heartwarming. Yes Jimin is my Home! He really is, but at that moment all you could do was stare at him. A tear stung your eyes as he placed a gentle kiss on your fingers.

"You know... In this whole world only one thing can ruin a beautiful relationship.. do you know what it is?" He asks, his warm dark moist lingering gaze lost in your eyes. Unable to find your voice, you just shake your head.

"It's misunderstandings that are created." Turning his head to the side, Jimin rested his head on your lap to hide the tears that were forming in his eyes. 

My past keeps haunting me. It's never going to let me go. Because of my past the person I love the most is having a hard time trusting in me. I don't blame her though. She had been through so much as well. I don't know why I feel like I'm going to loose Y/n. I know I have Sinned a lot in my past and I'm ready to accept any kind of punishment, But I beg from this whole universe not to take her away from me. I just pray that fate will not be so cruel to me and My love.

Jimin closed his eyes and let a tear roll down his cheek, hiding away his true feelings. 

----

After sometime your mind started running wild as you lay on the sofa with Jimin, staring at each other without uttering another word. There was a gap between you and him with your hands linked together in the center. 

I read it somewhere that... Silence says so much, So don't listen to it with your ears.. Try to listen to them with your heart. It's been a while and I'm still lost in your deep night sky like eyes. Like the saying I really can't hear anything but Jimin, my heart can feel your love, your fear and your pain. I'm the main reason for it and I don't know how to fix it. 

Can we really go back to laughing and teasing? Can we go back to cuddling and making love? Or did we push each other to a place where it will take a lot of time to reach each other. Why do I feel like the world is against us. No one likes to see us together. Everyone keeps pulling us apart. Are we really not meant to be together? Will I really ever be enough for you? 

With these thoughts your eyes started getting heavy. You blinked to keep yourself awake but everything that happened today was hitting you hard making you tired. You closed and opened your eyes few times. Midst all the drowsiness, you saw a small smile tug Jimin's beautiful plum lips and saw them move saying something. Something that skipped your heartbeat, something that you dreamed to hear one day. Something that you needed from him in return.

'I Love You!'

" Yahhh Kim Taehyung! Stop trashing things around. Doing this will not change anything." Zico one of Taehyung's friend's yelled grabbing an empty bottle from his hand.

"Leave me the fuck alone." Taehyung growled like a wounded animal. His anger was controlling his whole body and he was coping it up with violence. He finally lost it when he realized he got nothing left in his life and that his life was over. 

"Look man.. I know things are hard right now but you need to get back on your feet. You need to start all over again. Giving up is not an option. Don't act like a fucking washed up jock." Zico sighed pulling out a cigarette to light up. 

Washed up jock!

 I'm not a washed up jock!

 I refused to be one.  

Taehyung yelled again kicking empty cans and bottles of alcohol in the dark alleyway where his friends gather to smoke and drink. "Easy said that done Zico. It's not you who is this miserable." he leaned against the wall cursing. Zico puffed out white smoke calmly and passed the bud to Taehyung.

"True. I'm not you. But if I were you, I would start fixing everything from where it started going wrong." His friend advised.

Taehyung thought about what Zico said for a while. Deep down he knows where things started going wrong and he knew where to start fixing things. And he would gladly start all over again, starting with you.

He took out his phone and went to his last dialed number which was yours. Taehyung had been dialing you up just to listen to your voice once a day to keep himself going. He might be too late but this time he will not play by the rules. He was desperate to have his life back. 

Taehyung dialed up your number and pressed the cold metal phone against his ear. He bit his lower lip as he heard the line ringing. His gaze was hard and bit scary. Desperation and anger has gotten the best of him. 

"Hello" You answered sounding sleepy. Taehyung looked at the time it was barely 9pm. His chest did weird flips hearing you. He didn't want to speak to you at once so he waited for few seconds. You said another hello. He realized that you were going to hang up so he finally spoke. 

"Y/n.." his voice was deep and low. He could tell that you recognized him by the way the line went silent. He thought you hung up but he could hear your breathing.

"What do you want?" You sounded bitter but that made Taehyung's lips curl up in a smug way. 

"You!" He answered firmly.

"What?"

"I'm going to get back everything I lost... Including you, Y/n." His said as the self satisfied smirk spread wider hearing you curse and hang up.

It was Four in the morning when Jimin's phone started buzzing on the coffee table. The continuous vibration woke you from your deep sleep. You slowly opened your eyes and adjusted them to the surrounding. You were still in Jimin's living room.

You looked down at Jimin's head which was nuzzled onto your chest as he had himself wrapped around you as he laid on top. The feeling was warm and calming. Last night you both had your first fight after getting together and it hurt both of you deeply. Both of you refused to move an inch after everything so you both ended up sleeping on the sofa. The last thing you remembered was 'I love you'. But was it real? Or was it a dream? Must be a dream for sure.  

The phone started buzzing again and it was irritating you. But seeing the time you realized maybe it's something urgent. So you decided to wake Jimin up. 

"Jimin.. Wake up." You shook him lightly caressing his head, running your fingers through his soft hair. Jimin groaned and tightened the hold around you pressing himself more onto you.

"Jimin you are getting a call. Wake up." You say trying to move.

"Mm.. Let it ring." he says sleepily. 

"Please answer it. It could be important."

Jimin finally huffed out a breath and lazily put out his hand to find his buzzing phone on the coffee table. A small smile tugged your lips seeing his fluffy swollen face with pouty lips. You always wonder how such a hot man turn into a cute Tweety bird when he wakes up from his sleep.

"Hello." He answered groggily.

"Yes speaking." Jimin's brows furrowed. Within seconds Jimin sat up pulling away from you, shock registering his face.

"What? What happened?" he asks raising his voice which made you worry as well. You sat up realizing something was not right as Jimin stared into nothing while listening to the person on the phone with him.

"Ok. I'll be there as soon as possible. Please take care of him." Jimin let his phone fall as he hung his head low.

"Are you alright?" You ask placing a hand on his back. You felt him shake and knew that he was crying. 

"Baby? What's wrong?" You asked getting more worried. Jimin quickly turned to you and hugged you, burring his face on your chest as he cried. You quickly wrapped your hands around him and stroked his head.

"Hey.. What happened?" you ask softly trying to soothe him.

"Y/n... My.. d-dad had collapsed this morning." Jimin stuttered painfully and the news shocked you.

"Oh my god. Is he ok?" 

"They don't know yet. He has been under so much stress and over working. Y/n... I have to go to him." he says pulling away from you. "I have to be with him." he says through tears and it broke your heart. This boy who was flirty, fun and all smiley looks so wrecked. 

"I'll book the earliest flight and arrange everything. Don't worry. Nothing will happen ok.... everything is going to be alright." You say holding onto him. Jimin nods as he let out his frustrated cries against your neck. He couldn't believe that these things are even happening to him.

After few hours you were at the airport holding Jimin's hand tightly. He looked at you with sadness filled eyes making you want to cry but you held back. He was already having a hard time and last thing he wants right now is feeling guilty to leave you behind.

"I'll miss you, Princess." he says sadly twisting your heart.

"I'll miss you too baby." You say forcing a small smile. He quickly pulled you into a big tight hug, which you returned with so much love.

"I'll come back to you soon." He says pecking your neck. You closed your eyes and kissed his cheek.

"I'll be waiting."

"Ok I hate to break you love birds apart but he has a plane to catch." Hoseok reminds you both. Earlier Hoseok showed up as soon as he got the news. He helped Jimin pack and tagged along to see him off. You were surprised that he knew about you two but also relieved that you no longer had to hide. Jimin pulled away to hug his friend.

"I won't be gone for long. But please take care of My Y/n for me." he says to Hoseok making your heart skip a beat. 

"Always Jimina. You take care. Don't worry, uncle is a fighter and will soon be up to whoop our asses." Hoseok said to cheer Jimin up a little and Jimin did smile. He turned to you one last time and pulled you into a deep kiss. You wrapped your hands around his neck and kissed him back pouring your heart to him. I'm sorry for yesterday baby. I love you so much! I love you Jimin. Controlling the tears threatening to fall behind your closed eyes, you both pulled back as the announcement was made for boarding.

"Take care Jimin."

"Take care My love." He kissed your forehead and walked inside with a heavy heart after waving goodbye. As soon as he disappeared out of your sight, you broke down crying. Hoseok gently wrapped his arm around you and patted your shoulder.

"Now.. Don't be sad. He will be back soon." Hoseok says to calm you down.

"Hobi.. I'm a terrible person. I don't feel good. I hurt him yesterday and now he is gone. I didn't even get to say I'm sorry and  I... I.. I didn't even tell him how much I love him." You cried louder hugging your friend. Your heart was paining so much.

"Hey.. it's alright. I'm sure he knows Y/n."

"I'm sure he knows." Hoseok assured you.
