JIMIN'S POV:

I tossed and turned in my bed, unable to go to sleep, it had been going on like this for over two hours. I slammed my arms down onto the covers of my bed in frustration, about to give up on the idea of falling asleep. I was about to get up from my laid back position until I hear sound coming from downstairs. The familiar sweet voice echoed through the dark and quiet house, accompanied by my mothers.
(Y/n)?
I remained silent as I hear a light sound of footsteps nearing my bedroom door. I quickly closed my eyes shut, pretending to be asleep. I hear the door slowly creep open and the bed sink down beside me. "I'm leaving now and I don't know when I will be coming back." (Y/n)'s whispered.
Leaving, leaving where?
"I am so sorry for not telling you about my application and acceptance into the American art school, I fell so guilty for doing so, you're my best friend after all or ex and best friends are meant to tell each other everything, but I just couldn't bring myself to tell you."
I tried so hard not to react after hearing all this information.
All I wanted to do was wake up and envelope her into a warm embrace and tell her that I forgive her and that I returned the same feelings but I couldn't.
"I stopped telling you a few things or keeping secrets from you a while ago, for example, my feelings for you." I feel a small tear land on my face and I flinched slightly, frowning my eyebrows. She is making it so hard not to react. I so desperately wanted to say; Don't cry, it's okay.
"But as long as your happy with Yoon Hee there is no reason for me not to be, please continue to smile your famous eye smile and make Yoon Hee happy." I feel her leave a soft kiss on my cheek before exiting the room. "I love you." I opened my eyes and a tear slides down my face. I slowly lifted my hand up to wipe away the tear and cup the cheek she had kissed.  Her lips where so soft and her kiss sent shivers down my spine, to think she was leaving. I hear the front door close and I frustratedly sigh. I decided to stay awake. Tossing and turning will do me no good, so I might as well finish off my homework. I stood up and took a seat at my desk, attempting to do my homework but I couldn't, all I could think about was her, (Y/N) (L/N). I looked down onto the desk and smiled softly at the photo frame I had. It was a photo of the time when (y/n) and I received our acceptance letters into our current school. I remember how nervous she was, trembling with fear of not getting in. Of course, we both were accepted, resulting in this happy photo.

FLASHBACK:

"Ah Chim, how about if you get in and I don't, will I have to go to a different school without you?" She exclaimed in a panicked tone. I chuckled softly, grabbing her hand and squeezing it softly.

"You'll get in, promise." I smiled reassuringly.

"Are you sure?" She repeated.

"Yep." I simply replied. A big grin spread across her face before picking up the envelope, gesturing me to open it along with her. I nodded in reply as we both opened our letters. I read mine slowly, brushing across the sentence 'we would like to congratulate you on your acceptance into' I smiled with joy and look over at (y/n). "Did you get in?" I quickly inquired, catching her saddened face.

"No." She whispered.

"What, how?" I quickly jumped up from my seat and tried to take a look at her paper. Her frown quickly turned into a smile as she turned her paper around, showing me she had also been accepted. "You tricked me!" I spoke in disbelief.

"Hehe maybe, you should have seen your face!" She burst out into fits of laughter and I grinned evilly. She stopped once she caught my grin and nervously backed away from me. I chuckled before pouncing at her, tickling her into the ground. 

"REVENGE!" I shouted, whilst tickling her. She squirmed underneath me and tried to push me off but was too weak.

"STOP!" She shouted desperately, slowly becoming out of breath from laughing. 

"Only if you promise not to prank me again." I replied. 

"Fine, I'll stop." She managed to say between her fits of laughter. I smiled with satisfaction whilst standing up.

"Sike!" She yelled, holding up her crossed fingers. 

"(Y/N)! I yelled, chancing her out of the house.

FLASHBACK OVER:

I lay my head in my arms on the desk and look up, spotting a different photo from recently, it was a photo of our formal or dance. Everyone was smiling in that photo except for (y/n) and I didn't even notice. I banged my head repeatedly on the desktop, maybe it will knock some sense into me. I could imagine what she would be saying right now. 'Don't knock it too many times, you can't afford to lose any more brains cell.' 

I miss her snarky remarks and the cheeky smile that would come afterwards. I miss (y/n), I decided then and there I would go to the airport to apologise. Grabbing a jumper and rushing right past my mum and into the street. I hear her frantic calls and I quickly turn around, telling her I had to see (y/n) before she left. "Her plane leaves in a few minutes, you won't be able to catch her in time." My mum responded.

"It doesn't hurt to try." She smiled softly, gesturing me to go. I nodded, called a taxi to take me to the airport. As soon as I did I ran to customers to try and catch her before she crossed it but I was too late. The last thing I saw was her all too familiar (h/c). Before she disappeared across customes. I sighed in defeat, falling to my knees and letting tears slide down my face. 

"I am so sorry I realised I love you, when it was too late."
