I still remember. Do You? ꒰ა yoonmi... - Chapter 40: Chapter 40

The very next morning Jimin woke up to soft snores heard from his side. He turns around carefully to see Yoonjun sleeping right next to him, his cheeks squished between the pillow, while his hands gripped Jimin's tshirt cutely.
Jimin's heart jumped at the sight, a light giggle escaping his lips as he touches Yoonjun's chubby cheeks that bounced with his finger. The boy frowned at the disturbance and soon turned over making Jimin smile.
Jimin now started to look around him, it didn't take him much time to figure out that he wasn't in the same room that he slept the previous time Yoongi brought him here. Instead this room gave a much more mature vibes and he instantly knew it was Yoongi's.
He could smell Yoongi's scent in every corner.
The numerous photo frames on the wall caught Jimin's eyes. He stood up to inspect them from more closer. In the center was a big portrait of Yoongi and Yoonjun, where Yoongi was kissing Yoonjun on cheek while the boy made a fake disgusting face. Jimin couldn't resist laughing at that.
Rest of the portraits were of Yoonjun from his growing up days. Yoongi wasn't in any of them, probably because he was the one who took them.
In one photo Yoonjun seemed like he was just some months old, he was sucking on his thumb while sleeping and that's the moment Yoongi clicked the photo.
He put his finger over the photo and traced it with his fingertips. Jimin felt his omega getting restless at that, he felt a void inside of him. But he tries to ignore that feeling and moved onto the next one.
The next one was probably the first day of Yoonjun's school, his uniform was a bit oversized for his tiny frame. The boy tried so hard to control his tears in that one picture.
The rest were from different times, like one where Yoonjun had his face smeared in ice cream, or one where Yoonjun's clothes were covered in paint and he proudly showed his painting to the camera. But there was no sign of his omega father in any of these portrait. That made Jimin more curious to know about their past.
His eyes suddenly falls on the photo frame on the bedside table and as he tried to pick it up, he knocked a small wooden box that was kept there. He put the frame down to pick the box up from the floor.
When he lifted the box he saw a particular thing beneath it that made Jimin's knees go weak. He sat on the side of the bed and gently picked the thing in his hand.
He started at it with glassy eyes and agaped mouth.
He held the thing like it was the most precious thing to him but it was only a fragile ring. A fragile ring with a memory attached to it.
He remembers he wanted to gift Yoongi a ring when they were dating, and he could have actually bought a silver or diamond one but Yoongi would have never accepted it and neither that would have a deep meaning.
So, he saw many videos and finally after countless futile attempts he finally made a beautiful ring out of a thin wire and beads.
He remembers putting it on Yoongi's finger and telling him that it's like a promise that one day Yoongi would wear their wedding ring instead of that.
He never thought Yoongi would still keep this, atleast not after everything that happened.
" Jimin ah-"
Jimin quickly put the box down as he heard the knocks on the door.
" Oh, you're already awake."
Jimin stood awkwardly in front of the bed as his hands tried to place the box back in it's original position.
" Y-yeah, I just woke up."
" Come on, I made some hangover soup for you."
Jimin nods, letting out a relieved sigh once Yoongi left. He would have been so embarrassed if Yoongi had caught him. But it's not like he was spying, he just happened to see it accidentally.
" Where's Taehyung and Jungkook? "
He asks after coming out and seeing the living room quite empty.
Yoonjun must still be tired so it's better to leave the child to wake up on his own after his sleep is complete.
" They're both still sleeping."
His eyes fell on the couch in the living room that was all creased and a pillow and blanket were kept on the edge. It made him realise that Yoongi must have slept there last night.
" You slept here? "
" Yeah, didn't want to bother you and Jun."
Jimin suddenly feels guilty for making Yoongi sleep on a couch on his own home. Yoongi's bed was big enough for three people but still he chose to sleep outside to not make Jimin uncomfortable. Jimin's heart flutter because of this gentlemen attitude of Yoongi.
" Jimin ah! "
Taehyung comes rushing out from Yoonjun's room. Usually the alpha takes his time to fix his hairs before he gets out from his room but today he was too stunned to do so.
" What? "
Taehyung has a hand on his heart in hopes to calm it down, it's beating too loudly right now.
And why wouldn't it when he woke up to his crush's face just a few inches apart from his. His lips in a cute pout, looking like an angel. Taehyung had to rush out from there before his alpha goes feral.
" You won't believe I woke up to the BEST view in this world. The love of my life was sleeping next to me. I-i can't believe. I need to kiss Yoongi hyung to thank him."
Jimin stopped him by a harsh grasp on his wrist and pulled him to sit next to him.
" Calm down. He'll only think you're a pervert or something."
" Mean."
Taehyung pouts at the rude comment.
" Morning Taehyung ah."
Yoongi greets as he soon as he saw Taehyung with Jimin.
" Good morning hyung."
He greets back with his beautiful smile.
" Here's your breakfast."
Yoongi serves the breakfast on the dining table and the two bestfriends soon come there to take a seat.
" You aren't going to eat with us? "
Jimin's voice sounded disappointed and it somehow made Yoongi happy that Jimin wanted to have breakfast with him now. When he before used to hate the idea of them even sitting together.
" I'll clean the kitchen first and then join you."
With that Yoongi rushes inside the kitchen to finish his work so he could join Jimin. It's a habit of him to clean the mess first before eating.
" Why aren't you eating? "
Taehyung asks, he's already finished half of his plate, while Jimin hasn't touched his.
" We're in someone else's home, Tae."
Taehyung pays no attention to that and continued slurping his soup before he suddenly stops midway and puts the bowl down.
" Shit."
He mutters in a low voice.
" What now? "
" I've to attend an exhibition in about 30 minutes." He looks at the time on his phone, wondering how could he forget about such an important event. Probably because his mind is only filled with Jungkook's thoughts now.
" I need to leave right now to make it on time."
He gulps down the rest of the soup in one go and stands up right away after that, going inside the room where he slept last night to take his belongings.
" Yah! What about me? Remember we came together."
Jimin stops Taehyung right by the door. On hearing their commotion Yoongi came there too, to see what was wrong.
" Oh, you're leaving? "
He looked so disappointed at the view.
" Taehyung has something important." Jimin has the same expression as Yoongi.
" Yeah, sorry hyung."
Taehyung apologies.
" It's okay."
" You should go, or you'll be late." Taehyung nods and went ahead while Jimin stayed.
" Thanks for the food and sorry for troubling you."
" You could never be a trouble to me Jimin ah."
Jimin looked at Yoongi and then turned around to leave. His emotions are a mess right now because of the alpha. And of he stays there anymore, god knows what will happen.
" What's wrong? " Taehyung asks as he drives Jimin back home.
Taehyung knows Jimin could have easily stayed there for longer and called his driver to take him home. But he still opted to come with him, it must be because he doesn't want to be left alone with Yoongi.
" What do you mean? "
Jimin acts like nothing's wrong. But Taehyung knows him better.
" Is this about Yoongi hyung asking for a second chance? "
Jimin's eyes goes WIDE on hearing that. He asked for what?
" A what? "
" What are you talking about? "
Taehyung goes silent after that and it only made Jimin more confused.
" You don't remember? "
Now, Taehyung feels like an idiot for bringing it up. It's like he dug his own grave.
" Last night Yoongi hyung asked if you believe in second chances."
Jimin put his head down with a sigh after hearing that. His emotions are hard to read for Taehyung.
" I blacked out."
Jimin says grabbing his hairs, he doesn't even remember how he got in the bed last night. All he remember was playing that stupid game with Taehyung and drinking a lot.
" Then what were you so stressed about ?"
Jimin wemt silent for a second, thinking whether he should tell Taehyung about it or not. But then again if he doesn't tell someone all these feelings inside himself, he might explode.
" I accidentally knocked a wooden box in Yoongi's room this morning. There was a ring inside."
" His wedding ring? "
If that would have been the case Jimin would feel hurt but the thing he's feeling rn he can't explain it in words. It's like his heart hurt but in a good kinda way.
" It was a simple ring that I made for him as a promise ring."
" Wow... That's so- I can't find the right words."
Jimin feels the same, he can't find the words either.
" What are you feeling? "
" I don't know. If he really cared that much-- then why did he leave me ?"
His pent up anger starts to show a little. No matter how much he tries to stay calm, his anger always find a way to come out. And he can't seem to get a control over it.
" Jimin ah, maybe there's a reason behind that."
" What reason ? Why he couldn't have talked about it with me."
" Calm down."
Taehyung put his hand on Jimin's thigh, massaging it slowly.
" I don't know much about this, but I think you both should talk it out first before doing anything else."
" Resolve your underlying feelings first."
Jimin goes silent at that. He knows a conversation was long overdone. But he just... Can't find a way to have a conversation with Yoongi without leashing out on him.
" Thank you."
Jimin speaks in a calm tone.
" Anytime, chim."
After that Jimin turned his gaze outside to let the view cool his mind. Taehyung put on his soft music playlist that he has specially made for 'moody Jimin days' cause he have many of such days. So, Taehyung comes prepared now.
He wishes from the bottom of his heart that Yoongi and Jimin resolves all the misunderstanding between them because he can clearly see the love in their eyes that's masked by hurt and pain.
