Jungkook was downstairs sweeping the floors with a broom as he kept his blank face over the glass that showed his reflection. Everything was still as the only sound that could be heard was the light jingles of the glass rustling against the floor each time Jungkook swept up the glass. As the boy was cleaning up after his mess, Jimin came down and switched on more of the lights so Jungkook could see where he steps.

             "Keep the lights on while cleaning up glass. You won't get hurt that way." Jimin chuckled and got down the steps of the stairs to see Jungkook still sweeping up the glass and setting it to the side of the room to avoid getting cut. "...so, I'm not upset because of this mess. I know you need ways to relieve your anger and let it all go. I'm sorry I took it wrong and grew scared of you. I just didn't think." Jimin told the boy as he  got down the steps and walked up to the boy. "You know what you need? You need a stress ball! It can help if you need to let out anger or a punch dummy! We have a lot of those at the station." Jimin suggested, However... Jungkook didn't respond and kept sweeping up the glass and then, he placed the broom down and started to pick up the broken framed pictures of Jimin's family.

             "Yeah, that's my family. They are in Seoul... Did I tell you that?" Jimin asked and tried to start a conversation, but Jungkook only set the pictures away while Jimin nervously rolled his hair back. "If I didn't then... There you go." Jimin replied to himself. Feeling a bit embarrassed he was talking to himself. "I'll help you out! It's going to be a long night if you do this on your own. You're sick.. I shouldn't have you face this on your own." Claimed the Chief as Jungkook took time to pick the torn pages of books up and look at them before setting them aside.

             "Jungkook... Has this been bothering you to the point where you didn't even want to tell me about it? Is this why you bottled up those feelings and finally let them out while I was gone...?" Jimin wondered as he let out a sigh before crouching and picking up the remaining books as well. "Ignoring me... I understand.. I deserve it." Jimin continued, hoping to see the boy smile and sign to Jimin so he wouldn't be so tough on himself, but, Jungkook only carried a blank expression and continued to pick up the books so he could push the furniture back in place.

            Just as Jimin was close to picking up one of the books, his hand brushed along Jungkook's and he was able to feel the younger's temperature still rising like before. "Hey... You don't have to clean up, don't do it. Your temperature is really bad." Jimin continued to talk but every word that came out of his mouth was like he was holding a one sided conversation with himself through a mirror. Alas, Jungkook only kept his silence to himself and gazed at Jimin with his puffy eyes before snatching his hand back and standing up before walking over to one of the coffee tables to fix.

           "How could I tell him how sorry I feel...? I said it already... He just wants love and I can't give it to him. Atleast... Not yet.." Jimin said in his mind and face palmed after. "Jungkook... Please don't ignore me. Don't act like I don't know what you're doing to me now." Jimin demanded, however, the boy kept his hands busy by setting the furniture into place. Not even daring to stop and sign to Jimin. "I-I know what you need! You're hungry, aren't you?" Jimin asked, trying to lighten up the dull mood. "Hm? Hungry? I don't think I left you enough food in the morning. You must be starving!" Jimin continued as Jungkook still pretended he couldn't understand Jimin. "How about some coffee? We'll be up all night fixing this..."

               Jimin felt hopeless. Jungkook didn't want to communicate now and the younger only kept his mindset on cleaning up and falling asleep after. "Jungkook...? What do you want? I'll give you that... Please don't ignore me... Friends don't ignore each other like this." Jimin added as Jungkook dropped the book and was close to walking off when Jimin suddenly gripped onto Jungkook's arm and dropped him onto the couch. Making the younger gaze up to see Jimin stand by the couch and look down at him. "Where are you going?"

              Jungkook laid there with his gaze locked up at Jimin's while absolute silence fell across the room. Jungkook was only panting as his heart pounded at the beat of a metronome. The boy was strong. He kept in his silence between the two and kept his hands against the couch. Not wanting to sign, but that didn't mean his mind was silent on the view of the man standing over him. "Come on... We can talk about anything." Jimin mentioned but Jungkook looked away and laid on the couch.

            Jimin then sat down right by Jungkook and pointed his chin to have him face the older. "Let's talk about anything other than love. Distract yourself from it... Then, the time will come." Jimin claimed as Jungkook looked at Jimin with a blank gaze. "No? I'll start first. Let's take a small break from cleaning so I could tell you about my day. Listen if you'd like..." Jimin claimed as Jungkook looked up at the Ceiling. Knowing if he was to jump up and run, Jimin would slam him back onto the couch and tell him not to move at all. Now, the boy felt trapped.

              "I crossed paths with Sehiro... We aren't friends now.. I think. He was all off today... He smiled when I called him a murderer and he threatened me saying 'you'll see! You'll see how ugly a prince can get!' Threatening me about you... Who told him I called you my silent prince or even a prince in general...?" Jimin wondered as Jungkook kept looking up at the ceiling and suddenly letting out a cough after. "Whatever... Ugh, it made me upset how he tried to make me lose trust in you and Namjoon. It's so sad that a married man grows jealous over this... Over me! He lost his chance with me before. Now, I just can't stand the look on his sly face. He's up to something... I'm worried and looking back at it... I feel so upset. I mentioned you to him after he called you mental and I just lost it!" Jimin confessed while he looked down at Jungkook and gently tried to caress his face.

              "And he tried to pin the katana weapon thing on you... I said you went to Japan to visit. There's no way you could return with a weapon on the plane. You would most likely get arrested like that." Jimin continued while Jungkook finally turned his gaze to the older Chief. "I knew as soon as I mentioned my officer to you, you'd look my way. Are you jealous too...?" Whispered the older as he placed his hand over Jungkook's cheek and watched Jungkook exhale and close his eyes at the soft feeling. "I knew you couldn't avoid even looking at me... Don't ignore me, Jungkook. You don't know how upset that makes me feel. It makes me feel horrible..." Jimin continued and dropped his hand down to his neck so he could feel the temperature of Jungkook's body.

           "Mm.." Jungkook softly hummed and kept his eyes closed while feeling Jimin's hand softly caress his hot temperatured skin.

           "That's all I get? A soft hum?" Jimin chuckled as he rolled his hand up against Jungkook's silk hair. "This is so difficult for me too.." Jimin added as Jungkook kept his eyes closed and enjoyed Jimin's hands brushing against his soft hair. Even if he was sick, Jimin still sat there by his side. "Jungkook... You can tell me anything.. Why didn't you tell me you were jealous..?" Jimin asked and let out a chuckle as Jungkook tried to hum again the best he could. "If you aren't going to communicate with me, let's get back to cleaning." Jimin told the younger as he stood up and pulled his hand away from Jungkook's hair.

           For the remainder of the night, they cleaned up the whole living room and left the room just as it was left before. However, the younger then walked over to his own room to rest. He didn't really communicate with Jimin and left the Chief confused on what they had now. Jimin watched Jungkook walk off to the room and close it behind him. Having Jimin sit there and let out a sigh after. "Guess I'm sleeping alone for the night then..." Jimin whispered to himself. He grew use to the fact that Jungkook could sleep by his side, however, he never really thought of Jungkook detaching from him like this.

           Just watching Jungkook leave him to go back into a room on his own, almost made Jimin have the sudden urge to follow Jungkook and hug him close. Once Jimin took a step forward, he stopped himself just in front of Jungkook's door and hesitated. "What am I doing...? I told him we aren't something and just when he tried to grow out of it... I try to lure him back. I need to keep my distance..." Jimin said in his mind as Jungkook was inside, watching the door as he hugged a pillow to himself. Just like he was waiting for Jimin... But he never came.

          By the following morning, Jimin suddenly felt a wet and hot cloth towel being placed over his forehead. He woke up and his mouth felt parched, his head was spinning and he felt like his nose was stuffed. "Ugh..." Jimin groaned as he finally parted his eyes open and looked at Jungkook who was placing the slightly hot towel over his forehead. Taking good care of his Chief. "J-Jungkook... Ugh, what time is it...?"

           The younger then held up his phone and showed the time that flashed 10:38AM. This made Jimin's eyes blow wide and gasp. "I need to go to work!"

'You're sick. You're not allowed to leave.' Jungkook finally signed as Jimin let out a sigh and laid back. 'Don't worry. I'll take care of you. Just like you when you took good care of me.' Jungkook signed as Jimin stared up at Jungkook in the eyes while the younger finally made a smile. The older rose his hand up to feel Jungkook's neck as he caressed it softly. Feeling the boy's hot temperature drain out into warmth overnight.
