"So if I were you" he began and you looked back at him.

"I wouldn't be here when he wakes up" he said.

///

It was already sad enough that you had to leave him while he was recovering in the first place, but the fact that you couldn't even see him awake to say goodbye was even worse.

It was probably for the best.

It would've been harder to say goodbye if he was there to tell you not to go.

"Okay" you sighed.

You stood up from the chair and leaned over his sleeping body to place a gentle kiss on his head.

"See you soon Asshat" you said smiling, knowing that he would be smiling if he was awake.

"What are we going to do about the living arrangements?" You asked Jiyun after you left the room.

"Well I got a call earlier today from the police, before all of...this happened. And they said that they were done investigating and that we could move back into the house at any time"

"Are you sure you won't feel uncomfortable there? After everything that happened" you asked nervously.

"Of course not, that was all in the past. I'm going to buy some new things for the house and maybe re-paint it. It will be like a whole new home" she said excitedly.

You nodded. "Well whatever you think" you chuckled slightly. "I'll be on my way, I guess" you said awkwardly.

Jiyun wrapped her arms around you and the tears which you had been holding in all night, flooded like a river out of you.

"Please give him a hug for me" you sniffled.

"Of course I will" she replied.

And with that, you left the building and made your way home. You made sure to keep your hair down and put it in front of your face to hide your tear-stained cheeks.

You arrived to your apartment alone, just like you used to do every day for several months and the pained feeling was still present.

You felt almost as if you were abandoning him.

You opened the door and sighed.

You have to stop moping around for him, it is only a week.

Maybe some separation might be good, you thought.

///

Not long after you arrived home, you went to bed and tried your best to get a good nights sleep.

You would be lying if you said you didn't mind snuggling up to Jimin and having his arms wrapped around you or waking up early in the morning just for you and Jimin to chat for awhile before getting up to start your day.

It was strange waking up to being alone in the apartment. For the past while you've had to share the apartment with two other people and now it's all yours.

You could find both positives and negatives in that.

You decided that instead of wallowing around all day, daydreaming about how your boyfriend is and how much you miss him, you would go to school.

You haven't gone to school in just about a week as you were making sure Jimin and Jiyun were okay, but now that they're gone you might as well go.

You also told Mark yesterday that you were going, so you might as well go instead of trying to come up with some lame excuse as to why you couldn't go.

You had a light snack as a breakfast, grabbed your bag and left the apartment to go to school.

The feeling of going back to school was strange, but I was worth it once you saw your friends sitting in the classroom as you entered.

"Kookie! Taetae!" You said excitedly, giving them both hugs.

"Y/n!" They big said in unison.

"You're back" Jungkook smiled.

"Yeah I am" you replied.

"How's Jimin?" Taehyung asked.

Oh.

You forgot to tell them about that.

The nervous expression displayed on your face sent shivers of worry to course through them.

"Is he okay?" Jungkook asked.

"He will be after a while. Actually I was hoping if you both could get the whole group, bar Jimin, to come to the cafe later and I will tell you all what happened then" you smiled weakly.

"Can we see him?" Taehyung asked.

You shrugged your shoulders. "I don't know, maybe. I'm not allowed though" you sighed. "Doctors orders"

"Doctors orders?" They both asked shocked. "How serious is this?" Jungkook asked.

"Pretty serious"

///

You shouldn't have said anything to the two boys in the first place.

Throughout the entire day, they were trying to get you to talk and tell them something.

Anything.

But you didn't think it felt right to let two of them know and not the others.

But as of now, you are patiently waiting in the cafe for them to arrive.

Mark took three days holidays, so the only contact you really have with anyone besides the customers is Jackson.

"Do you think that maths test will be hard?" He asked as he was stirring the drink you just made for him.

"Possibly, but it should be fine. The only hard part would probably be trigonometric ratios" you explained. "But I'm reality, it shouldn't be anything you can't handle" you said, hoping to boost his confidence.

He gave a cheeky smile.

"Do you think you could help me?" He asked.

"With math?" You asked and he nodded. "Yeah sure" you replied.

And just as you and Jackson were about to set a day for you to tutor him, the six boys entered the cafe.

"Tell us and tell us now" Jungkook demanded.

"Okay, okay. Just go take a seat over there, I'll be over in a minute" you said and they complied, walking over to the table.

"We can talk later" he said and you smiled.

"Thank you" you said before going to the table with your friends.

They were all a mix of emotions.

You sat down on the spare seat and everyone's attention gravitated toward you.

"Where to start" you sighed, rubbing your eyes from exhaustion and you began to twiddle your thumbs.

"Basically, last night Jimin came to visit me at work and I was annoyed at him for a reason that seems stupid now. But anyways, after work we were walking home and Jimin pulled me over to a bench so I could explain why I was frustrated with him" you looked up from your gaze at your hands to see them completely immersed in what you were saying.

"And as we sat down, I noticed a guy a far enough distance away. He looked sketchy, but I didn't say anything about him. And as we stood up to leave, I saw who he was-"

"Mr. Park?" Hoseok interrupted.

"No, not Jimin's father, mine actually" you could feel your insides churn.

"And I made the stupid mistake, the really, really stupid mistake of going over to him and confronting him. He tormented both me and Jimin and somewhere along the line of our conversation, Jimin called the police. Without me nor my father knowing" you felt like everyone was staring at you sympathetically.

Which they were.

"My father told me he wanted to sell me off and of course I said no. And he took a step towards me and Jimin punched him"

There was a gasp.

Probably Taetae.

"And then they got into the most ruthless fist fight I have ever seen. There was kicking, punching, scratching, any sort of attack move really. But they were both beaten very badly by the end" they could see the tears begin to form in your eyes.

"I screamed at the top of my lungs for them to stop, but they didn't. I don't know what injuries my father has, and I don't want to know. I really couldn't care any less" you sighed.

"And what about Jimin, how are his injuries?"

"They're quite bad. Jimin can't talk at the moment as he has a bruised esophaguses. He also had a bruised abdomen and a broken knuckle and a fractured wrist" you felt Namjoon put his arm on your shoulder with sadness.

"And so the doctor said I should stay away from him for about a week" you informed them.

"A week?" Jin asked.

"Yeah, it will probably grow so that after this week I can see him once every three or four days. I'm not really sure" you said awkwardly.

"You guys can probably see him though! You should probably go one at a time though. Just so that it's not all six of you at once, you know?" You said and they nodded happily.

They were glad they could see their best friend once again.

///

For the rest of the evening, you say in that little cafe and chatted with your friends, who have been so kind you you for as long as you have known them.

You learned some new things about everyone.

You learned that Jungkook had a crush on a girl he met at a party and Taehyung has a new girlfriend.

Chaeyoung.

And from what you have heard about her, she seems to be just like him. She loves to sing and she's really goofy, in the best way possible. He has also talked about how she likes to draw and apparently she is very good.

You were hoping you would meet her soon.

This wasn't just news to you, it was news to all of them.

Yoongi and Namjoon have both gotten accepted into music school, which Joon was delighted with because if he didn't do music he would have to work in an office.

Which wasn't exactly his cup of tea.

Jin has decided to buy a car, a mini van to be exact, and everyone was so happy as the car he has at the moment couldn't fit everyone.

Hobi has been asked to manage the new dance company opening in the city. He entered a video into a contest and he was the lucky winner.

You are happy to see them happy and thriving in life.

But that was a few hours ago, you were now locking up the cafe and getting ready to go home.

You pulled you phone out of your bag as you walked down the street.

You hadn't checked your phone all day as you've just been so stressed and busy.

But the happiness that rose in you when you first saw those messages from the boy you love was indescribable.
