Roaming. That's what Jimin's planning on doing for the next hour. He aimlessly walks through countless streets, encounters countless faces before they begin to fade. Before everything begins to fade.

'What have you done?' Is his initial thought when his mind finally unfreezes. Jimin runs a hand through his hair frustratedly as the burden of the night rests on his shoulders.

When he returns home what he doesn't expect to see is his best friend greeting him arms crossed as he kicks the door open wider to reveal something.

The sight of the younger male snoring on the couch. Jimin sighs shakily "I don't even want to know" Jungkook responds sassily whilst returning to his own room for the night.

Jimin approaches the shivering body of the younger only gripping his own hair in confusion, his first instinct is to yell the younger awake but he soon realises the lack of energy he has to fight the other or answer him when he awakes.

The older male examines the other feeling a wave of sympathy and general care washing over him as he notices Taehyung's swollen eyes and the array of goosebumps forming on the expanse of his slender body.

"Don't cry for me, I'm not worth it anymore" He whispers softly whilst cradling him into his arms. Taehyung stirs in his sleep, leaning into the older's warmth as Jimin carries him effortlessly softly tucking him underneath his own covers.

When he returns to the living room he feels a pang of uncertainty creeping up on him as he lays on the couch, eyes still wide open.

He didn't know, he didn't realise what it was about the younger that enticed him, they were young. Not too young old enough for Jimin to understand. The feeling that made his stomach lurch every time the younger smiled was unexplainable.

It was wrong, it was all wrong and the older boy didn't know what to do but distance himself from the other, it was a decision he made in order to hide the feelings he had for his step brother.

Morning. Morning arrives faster for Jimin than it does on usual days, jimin's morning begins abruptly when an aggravated male aggressively hammers down his door at the ass crack of dawn.

The younger man stares at him through the furious glasses of his eyes as his hair sticks out in multiple places "I wasn't finished" Taehyung barks confidently, Jimin eyes him wearily as the blonde haired male enters the room giving him the sharpest of looks.

He trains his eyes on the boy as he lifts himself to stand realising that he's managed to shed his shirt like every other restless night. Taehyung's eyes flicker to the older's exposed abdomen as he licks his lips, his tongue poking into the inside of his cheek

A low burn settles into the pit of the other's stomach as the younger's heated eyes pierce into his. Intimidating, that's what Taehyung is to Jimin as he approaches the said male.

Anxiously sinking his teeth into his lips the older male stumbles back holding his arm out as if to procure a safe distance. That plan however, fails miserably when Taehyung eliminates jimin's protective barrier.

Pushing him against the wall Taehyung growls as his mouth collides with the other's. Jimin freezes in his position, his body becoming numb as he willingly lets Taehyung kiss him.

Breathless, the two males gaze at one another softly, questioning each other silently as Taehyung rests his forehead on the other's. "I need you to stop pushing me away" he orders. Jimin stops him slightly shoving him to create a distance "we can't" he says or rather pleads as the other shakes his head. "We can" he replies.

"I'm not SeokJin's son"
