Osaka, Japan

4:46 AM

Already hours in, Jungkook felt his head spinning until he finally had it in place. His eyes pulled open and his gaze grew blurry. The boy felt a tight rope wrapped around his wrist held above his head until his stare fell down onto his own body; laying over a white covered bed. The boy had his wrists tied above his head, his clothes being removed and changed into a different red, sleeved, shirt, and loose, matching pajama bottoms. The boy also felt as if his body was refreshed after a clean shower; even his hair was slightly damp as well. Showing that he was bathed and clothed.

Jungkook turned his head and heard the soothing beat to a song playing from a speaker right across the bed he laid in. The same bed was in place, cabinets and drawers, but then… He realized that there was just one window. Normally, Jungkook would recall the massive glass walls of the penthouse; yet, this was different since it only had one window available to him now. Was he just dreaming?; Jungkook took a good look around and it felt as if he was in Jimin's room back at the penthouse, but in a different place where the items and furniture stayed.

Jungkook heard the soft music set into a low volume for the boy as he was still knocked out. It wasn't until he was awake when he finally caught a grasp of what he was listening.

🎵Song: Let's fall in love for the night🎵

🎶By: FINNEAS 🎤

Just when Jungkook finally noticed where the source of the song was coming from, his eyes fell onto a man sitting on a one-seat leather couch up ahead until he rose his hand and turned on the lamp by his side. There, Park Jimin sat still and stared at his lover with such a sly demeanor. Jungkook's eyes scanned Jimin's body sitting across the room; analyzing his ex's outfit that consisted of a white and loose dress shirt with every button undone, black slacks held together with a leather, black, belt, and black, classic shoes to tie the look together. Jimin always wore outfits like this, especially when he had business to attend to.

However, Jungkook didn't care about how strange the room looked or the way his ex wore his outfit like he was busy with work… Jungkook just couldn't believe his eyes finally fell onto Park Jimin's once more. “Jimin? J-Jimin!” Jungkook whispered in slight tears as he tried to move his wrists away from the knot around his fragile wrists. “Jimin… Jimin!” Jungkook kept sputtering until he watched Jimin tilt his scary glare along with his head that cocked to the side.

“I told you…” Jimin whispered into his deep and raspy voice as if he spent days without sleep. “Don't follow me or else you'll end up in my arms… With no escape. What did you think when I said that? Did you really think I was going to let you go?” Jimin continued. Soon getting up and switching the stereo off before he could make his way to the boy. “We're in Japan.”

“Japan? How did we-”

“I took you with me. I'm not going to leave you alone now, we'll be together forever.” Jimin stated as Jungkook slowly rose his gaze up to see the the knot, locking his wrists together. “I took good care of you… When we arrived from the private jet, I took you a shower and clothed you. But of course, I tied you up so you wouldn't leave me. When I first saw you in front of me, you looked weak, tired, and I can tell you suffered just as much as I did. Why would you think you'll leave me that easily and then live off as if you were fine? I wasn't better either.” Jimin stated and guided his hands down Jungkook’s body so carefully; caressing Jeon Jungkook’s chest while he listened to his light breathing. “Don't worry, I didn't touch you. I would never disrespect you and touch you without your consent. I never hurt you before, and I don't have plans to do so ever.”

“Thank you…” Jungkook whispered as the boy slowly guided his eyes up to Jimin's. “Jimin… I'm sorry…” The boy whispered. Longing to hug Jimin in his arms after such a long time apart from him. However Jimin only rose a brow and moved his hands away from the boy. “Jimin, please l-let me go… This isn't you!”

“Why…? So you'd leave me again? You don't know how it felt Jungkook… How it felt to wake up every second and see that you weren't there. It drove me insane!”

“W-What are you talking about, Jimin? I know exactly how it felt. I couldn't eat without my Jimin…” Jungkook spoke and teared up. “I woke up crying for you as my mother held me in her arms to comfort me… They've never seen me act that way towards anyone but you. I love you, Jimin… But what you've become is something I don't know how to deal with.” Jimin kept a blank stare at Jungkook as he sat over the bed and rose his hands up to begin undoing the tight knot of the rope around his Jungkook's wrists. “Jimin… Let me love you…” Jungkook whispered and once his wrists were free, he suddenly wrapped his arms around Jimin's body and hugged him after so long. Jungkook felt the warmth of his heart finding it's own pieces in sync with Jimin's as he hugged him tightly and sobbed into his lover's shoulder.

However, Jimin sat there with his same and uneasy stare while he kept his hands down against the bed. “I'm too complicated…” Jimin whispered as Jungkook kept his tight grip around his lover. “I told you… Not to follow, but you did and here we are. Do you think there will be a good end to this? No… Everywhere I go, you'll come with me as well. You can't escape me, Jungkook. Now do you see why I was so lonely from the start?”

“Jimin, you're off your medications; aren't you...” Jungkook instantly silenced the man. “Please Daddy… Take them for me, I swear I won't complain.” Jungkook continued and that's when Jimin had enough. Jimin slowly moved the boy's hands away from his body, and held Jungkook's wrists to stare into his soul. The uneasy glare Jimin sent towards Jungkook like a dart hitting a board, left Jungkook staring at Jimin in return; but only staring at him with a teary and tired gaze. Jungkook didn't fear Jimin now, he worried about his lover and it was no secret that many others felt the same. “Ji-”

“Stop it… I'm not taking my stupid medications. I skipped taking them even on the jet ride here just by sleeping through the whole ride as well.” Jimin answered and gripped onto Jungkook's wrist to gain his attention. “Listen to me, Jungkook… I'm never going to take them. Got it?”

“Why?” The boy asked. Watching how Jimin then let go of Jungkook's wrists to then stand up and pace around. “You'll end up killing yourself over this! There are things you can't control and those are your feelings. Jimin, you need medications they're not a choice!” All Jimin heard was Jungkook's voice getting interrupted by the constant voices in his head. Making Jimin slowly raise the palms of his hands and over his own hair to grip onto it. Feeling like he was losing his mind by the second. “I don't want to lose you to something you could have prevented…”

“So what if I take my pills?!” Jimin hissed and threw his stare back at Jungkook. Fixing his eyes that showed flames itself within his pupils. Jungkook didn't even have to see it to believe it; it was written all over Jimin's glare. The voices in his head and the way he couldn't feel normally, drove him insane. “I'll act all weak and soft towards you… Last time I took my pills, I let you go like a weak piece of shit that I was! But now, I won't take them… even if it seems like it's killing me, I can't risk losing you. If staying as a crazy man before you, keeps you here; then I'll take it!” Jimin rose his voice at Jungkook while the boy hid his sobs to see how much damage leaving Jimin really caused. “I told you if you left, I'll go bullshit crazy. How does it look on me? Does it suit me now?”

“N-No…”

“No?~” Jimin then scoffed and smiled while he looked to the side of the room with his hands resting on his hips. “You'll get used to this version of me… Since you chose to leave the other.”

“I didn't choose to leave you.” Jungkook whispered and looked down at his own hands that captured the warm drops of tears within the silent moment. “Hearing you do these evil things… It scared me to the point where I had no choice. I don't like it that you hurt others. You said you'd never hurt me, but I guess you didn't mean verbally.”

“What do you expect me to do? I'd love to hear it.”

“Leave all this behind… Take your medications… Come back to Korea with me and we'll take Suyong too.” Jungkook said and slowly got up from the bed to approach Jimin. “Spend endless days with me… Loving me and kissing me. Daddy, isn't that something you'd rather have than a life like this?” Jungkook tried to slip into Jimin's crowded mind as he approached the darker version to the one he fell in love with. Jungkook soon stood before Jimin and pressed his head over his shoulder; raising his hands around the neck of the man as his tears fell through Jimin's dress shirt. “You can have all of me. You can touch me all you want, love me, break me, but I'd never give up on you because I know if our love can drive me blind, it can drive me back to where it all went wrong so we could fix it.” Jungkook carefully spoke to his lover and intertwined his hands and fingers with Jimin's. “Seam every broken piece of our hearts like fabric and hide the stitching. That's what our love is and we could continue… Living a perfect life together without this. Without this noise…”

Jimin felt distracted with the boy's words and united his eyes over Jungkook’s so carefully.

“He isn't afraid of me when he sees me like this.”

“Jungkook is suddenly wanting to ignore the fact that I kill and sell people, just to start a new life? He's gotta be kidding me!”

“I don't believe this one bit…”

“These perfect dreams you speak from the top of your head…” Jimin uttered and made Jungkook look up with every doubt thinking Jimin would agree. “You say you would go back to every issue we had before and we can fix it together, you say you would never give up us me, but what did you do to me before? You left me… you left us, and now I know that I can't afford to lose you.” Jimin answered with no emotion and this only left Jungkook nervous. Jimin then removed his hands from Jungkook's grasp and cupped his face carefully to press his forehead against. “Oh baby, you can't change what I already am… This life is already part of me… and yours as well.”

With that being said, Jimin pulled away and turned around to start buttoning up his dress shirt. “Darling, you look more pale and weak. I'll prepare you something.” Jimin switched the topic so easily as Jungkook stood there, watching his lover leave the room right after. Jungkook felt hopeless within the four lonely walls caving in around him; making him realize that Jimin just needed to take his medications to gain his sanity back. However, with the strong tone Jimin had against that, Jungkook knew he had to get Jimin to take his prescription once again. Just so he could finally talk to the man and get him to understand that this wasn't the life he deserved. Rather, a better life with Jungkook instead.
