"Are you sure you want to do that?" Namjoon asked.

"Yes. I'm very sure."

"But...he knows everything. What if he tells—?"

"He won't. He's not like that. We're friends. I can trust him otherwise I wouldn't have told him everything about me." Yoongi replied.

Namjoon nodded his head even though he was internally freaking out. He had already seen a vision of Jungkook with a boy and he was sure it wasn't precisely the boys decision.

Now Yoongi was repeating the same love story from years ago, but who was he to judge? At least he was completely honest with his lover unlike him.

He didn't have the courage to tell Jin about the whole vampire thing. Jin was such an anxious person he wouldn't ever stop overthinking it. Namjoon told himself he did it to protect him when in all reality he was simply scared that Jin would leave.

"Okay. Go for it. If you trust him then I trust you."

"Cool." He smiled.

"Hey, I'm going to go to the bathroom. Can you order me a this when our waitress comes?" He asked pointing to a dish on the menu.

"Sure no problem."

Namjoon excused himself and Yoongi kept looking down at the bracelet in his hands. However, he looked up when he smelled Jimin's scent.

Oh yes, Jimin had a scent. It wasn't his blood because it had been a while since he paid attention to that.

He just smelled like sugar and honey and every sweet thing in the world. He smiled as he watched him walk up to the cashier.

Just as he was about to get up from the table and talk to him he caught eyes with a woman just walking in. Their eyes met up and within seconds Yoongi  knew she was one of them.

Jimin had his hands in his pockets and was mumbling a random song. He got bored of waiting and started looking around.

As soon as he saw Yoongi he excitedly smiled and waved. Yoongi quickly looked away and avoided eye contact.

He didn't want the new vampire to see any association between them. He was pretty sure she was in town for the "meeting" they did every year. The last thing he needed was a bunch of ancient vampires going after Jimin considering human relationships were prohibited.

Jimin's heart sunk to his stomach and he looked back up front. His eyes were filled up with tears and he didn't even process what the waitress was saying.

"Sir?"

"Huh? I'm sorry what?"

"Here's the to go plate. You're good to go."

Jimin nodded his head taking the bag. His heart still hurt and he wasn't quite sure why. Yoongi made sure to look down so he wouldn't see him again and remember.

"Our waitress still hasn't come?"

"Nope not yet."

"Is something wrong?"

Yoongi pulled out his phone to text him. It was always alarming encountering other vampires because you didn't know what they were capable of.

Yoongi:
look around there's one of us here
i don't think ive ever seen her

Namjoon received the message and looked until he spotted the woman sitting  across the room. He nodded his head texting back.

Namjoon:
found her
i happen to know her
well sort of
we've exchanged a few words before
her name is irene and she is nearly a decade older than me so let's not fuck with her

Yoongi nodded nervously. He hoped she hadn't seen Jimin wave at him. As he put up his phone a girl rested her hands on their table.

"Hello Namjoon. Weren't you going to say hey?" Irene smiled.

"No, no, of course I was. How are you? I thought you were still in France?"

"Of course I love it there. I'm just in town for our annual meeting." She rolled her eyes. Then turned her attention to Yoongi who had stayed quiet the whole time.

"I remember you. I believe I've seen you a few times. Aren't you going to talk? Are you mute?"

"I'm Yoongi."

"Yoongi? Nice. You're a young one aren't you?" She teased.

"I'm two-hundred and sixty four."

"Well, considering I'm almost triple your age you're pretty young."

All Yoongi could do was nod. "Anyways, I'll see you guys the twenty fourth." She grinned and walked away.

"She's..."

"Shh. She can hear." Namjoon whispered very quietly.

"Oh. Right."

"You're lucky she even spoke to you."

"What? Why?"

"She hates men." He shrugged.

Yoongi scratched the back of his head confused. "Okay. That's...uh...cool I guess."

The waitress finally came and they both ordered their food. While Namjoon was anxiously waiting for the dish all Yoongi could think about was Jimin.

•••

"Jimin!" Yoongi said as soon as he closed the window behind.

At first, Jimin was very happy to see him. Then he recalled that he had ignored him earlier and his smile turned to a frown.

"Hello. You're in the mood to talk to me now?" He asked a bit bitter.

"It wasn't like that, okay?"

"Really? Because that's what it seemed like. I felt so stupid waving at you and you completely ignore me. Are you...are you embarrassed of me?"

Is this what Hoseok had felt? It was truly one of the worst feelings. To feel like a person you care about is embarrassed of you.

"If you are that's fine you know. Our friendship isn't the most normal anyways. I don't—I don't have no fancy powers to—"

Yoongi cut him off by pulling him in for a hug. Jimin gasped at his strength. It wasn't too much, but it was definitely tight. Their bodies were so pressed against each other Jimin could feel his heartbeat.

"I'm not embarrassed of you. I care about and that's why I ignored you." He mumbled pulling away after a brief moment.

"I don't understand."

"There's a new female vampire in town. When I was about to get up and talk to you I saw her. I knew if she saw us talk she'd tell him and then it would just put you in danger. He controls everything including Jungkook. If he can control Jungkook I'm terrified."

"He? Who's he?" Jimin asked alarmed.

"It's uh...a long story. We—as vampires we're suppose to serve our superior. He has been here for a long time. He's the first original hybrid and has powers that will fuck you up. No one really knows how old he is. I've seen him a few times. Never actually spoke to him though."

"Oh wow." Jimin said sitting down on his bed. Just when he thought it couldn't get any crazier it was crazier.

"That's why I didn't want her to see us talking. Human relationships are prohibited. I shouldn't even be telling you this. You know everything about me. If he or they found out they wouldn't just kill you they'd kill me too. I'm not worried about myself. I've lived long enough, but you're so young. You deserve to live a long life and accomplish everything you want."

Jimin swallowed the lump on his throat, "Thank you. I'm sorry. I apologize for getting mad. I'm just...I'm confused about everything. I don't understand it all, but thank you for caring."

"Of course. I care about you a lot. I'm not the same Yoongi you met three months ago. My feelings for you have evolved."

Jimin's heart skipped a beat and his face got extremely red. What did Yoongi mean by that? He didn't want to misinterpret and make a fool of himself.

"I mean you're my friend and I care." Yoongi added hoping he wouldn't be too freaked out. He hoped to see a different reaction from Jimin. Maybe a smile or a hug or a 'hey my feelings for you have evolved too'.

Instead, he was met with a puzzled flustered Jimin who kept staring at his hands. It was clear the feelings weren't there. Not the way Yoongi's were and that was okay.

Rushing love was never the answer. You can't rush what's not there. It had to be born by itself and watered with actions and selflessness.

"Me too." Jimin finally whispered. He tried to not let the previous statement fuck him up. It was inevitable to not feel nothing. Yoongi was handsome and incredibly thoughtful. However, thinking about falling for him terrified Jimin too much.

"I actually came to give you this." He said pulling out the bracelet from his pocket.

"For what?" He wondered.

"You told me you wanted to remember everything. This is it."

"A bracelet? That's going to magically give me my thoughts back?"

"Yeah. It's not just any type of bracelet. It's made from a special material that will help you resist any vampire compulsion. Therefore, you will be immune to my powers and every other vampire. You'll remember everything we've talked about and every moment we've spent together without my being here. I'll be part of your life now."

Jimin looked down at the bracelet swallowing hard. Is that really what he wanted? He'd always remember now and it won't just be for a couple of hours while talking to him.

"You don't have to wear it you know? I know it's overwhelming to remember everything you've learned about me. Once you do, you'll always be thinking about it. If it's not what you want then you don't have to wear it. It's your choice. I'm not going to lie though I really wish you would."

"You do?"

"Yes, I don't ever want you to doubt me or think I'm getting in your head to get your affection. I haven't used my powers on you since I met you. What I did was wrong. I didn't have what I have now and that's why I was selfish and did it to get what I wanted."

Jimin slowly smiled, "I trust you. I want to wear it."

Yoongi returned the smile and opened it up. He put it around his wrist and closed it. "I don't feel any different." He commented.

"Of course not because I'm right here. Hold on." He said walking to his closet. He stepped inside and closed the door.

Jimin furrowed his eyebrows confused. "What are you—?" then it hit him. He remembered that he went in the closet. He remembered everything that happened.

Days and days of memories came flushing over him. He now knew why his window was always left open and why his food was always mysteriously disappearing.

"Yoongi!" He giggled.

He stepped out and grinned. "I'm guessing you remember?"

Jimin nodded excitedly running to him. He hugged him without hesitation. They stood there for a while until Jimin pulled away.

"I..." remember.

"What?"

The dream he had two nights ago suddenly came to mind. He wasn't dreaming of Hoseok. He was dreaming of Yoongi in Hoseok's body.

"Now let me tell you I usually prefer to feed in the thigh but..." those were Yoongi's exact words the first night they met. His sub conscious had kept that in mind for some reason and now it all made sense.

"Jimin?"

"Huh? Sorry. Sorry I—I just feel a lot little uhh...confused. He smiled nervously. By confused he meant freaked out.

Why was he dreaming of him? That was when he didn't remember and now that he did what if he kept dreaming of him?

"I know it's a lot. I should probably let you rest a bit."

He nodded his head slowly. Yoongi smiled, "Alright well goodnight Jimin. Hope you sleep well. Don't dream of me too much." He winked.

"What? What do you m-mean?"

"I'm kidding. It's a joke." He chuckled.

"Oh, ha. Yeah. That was funny."

"We're still friends, right?" He asked as he approached his window.

Jimin smiled nodding, "Until the every end."
