It was strangely quiet in the Bangtan apartment. The only sounds that could be heard was the snoring sounds of Namjoon, the video game that Jungkook was playing and the soft music that Taehyung played in his room. It wasn't that quiet for most people, but it definitely was for the seven boys. They were usually quite present. You could hear that the second you'd step inside the apartment.

You'd hear Jungkook playing his video games, Seokjin singing loudly in the shower, Hoseok yelling, Yoongi making his music and Jimin working out. Taehyung and Namjoon were usually just chilling, besides that Namjoon focussed on music once in a while. Taehyung just liked to use his free time to really chill and watch a movie, lay on his bed, just do nothing much. He would listen to music the whole night though.

Taehyung always used to listen to some music before actually sleeping. He used it to calm himself down, make him chill, and zone out eventually. Sometimes he would just find himself waking up with the music still playing, but usually he was able to put the music off before falling into his deep sleep. Taehyung was a heavy sleeper. You could throw a bucket of water all over him, and he would not wake up.

Hoseok actually tried that once, in their rookie days. They were still in their old small dorm and he just wouldn't wake up. Hoseok filled a bucket full of water, and wetting Taehyung with it by splashing the water all over him. The fun was over immediately since there was no reaction. Taehyung was very confused though, when he found himself and his whole bed fully wet.

Taehyung wished he would be able to go back to their rookie years. It was hard for them, because they faced a lot of problems, but they always had fun together. They were strong. Just like they are now, but 'the situation', as the other boys call it now, is definitely not helping at all.

The tall boy layed on his bed, staring at the ceiling. He listened to Jimins song, Serendipity, the song he always admired. He liked the sound of Jimins voice and the chill beat. He closed his eyes.

Just let me love you...

Taehyung sighed. The lyrics hit him.The sentence kept repeating itself in Taehyungs head. He heard Jimin saying it over and over again. Just let me love you. Just let me love you.

Taehyung shook his head and slapped his cheek. "Cut it out," he mumbled to himself. But he kept thinking about Jimin. How he pushed him away after the kiss. It kinda hurt Taehyung, but he understood. Ofcourse he had to understand. Jimin didn't know about his feelings. Jimin was upset that everyone did know about his feelings. Taehyung sighed deeply and ran his hand through his hair. Jimin looked so sad last night. Taehyung really wanted to tell him he loved him back, and kiss him again, but Jimin sent him away. He just didn't want to make Jimin angry.

'Cause you love me, and I love you

Taehyung breathed shakily. He placed his right hand on his heart and swallowed. His mouth was dry, hand trembling. What could he do? He didn't want to confess, for Bangtan's sake and also their reputation. But on the other side, he didn't want to hurt his best friend anymore.

Taehyungs thoughts where a mess. All he could see in front of him was Jimin. He has always been so nice to him, so caring and thoughtful, he did not deserve his at all..

"I love you, Park Jimin," Taehyung whispered.

On the other side of the wall, Jimin layed in his bed. He was sweaty and chilly at the same time. His stomach was aching badly, thumping in the back of his head. His arm was wrapped around his stomach, hoping it will help to release the pain, while ofcourse he knew it wouldn't help him.

The whole thing between Taehyung and him made him sick. Right now, even literally. He woke up about an hour ago, coughing like crazy and sweating gallons.

He had used pain killers and he drank water, but nothing helped him. Tears formed in his eyes. It wasn't just the pain in his body. It was also the pain Taehyung gave him. Taehyung couldn't do anything about this. He could not force himself to love him. Jimin knew that. But he was not able to accept it.

It took hours and hours for Jimin to finally fall asleep. Sadly for him, he didn't get any nice sleep. He kept turning from his left to his right, not being able to get comfortable in his sweaty, warm and wet bed.

The next morning everyone but Jimin lunched together, the six of them supposing he was just sleeping. Little did they know he wasn't sleeping, but staring into space, feeling awfully ill.

When they heard vomiting sounds, they immediately looked at each other. Seokjin and Taehyung rushed upstairs, finding Jimin in one of the bathrooms, on his knees in front of the toilet. His cheeks were wet with tears and sweat, eyes barely able to stay opened. He sniffed.

"Hey, it's okay Jimin," Seokjin shushed him as he saw him getting upset. He wiped his face with a cold, wet washing cloth and Taehyung quickly cleaned the toilet, removing the bad smell and vomit. Although he knew it was kind of disgusting, he felt like he owes Jimin a lot, just wanting to take care of him.

"When did you get sick?" Seokjin asked him, patting his shoulder. Jimin rested his head on the wall and sighed. "At night... I couldn't sleep for hours and when I woke up after a horrible few hours of sleep, I just felt everything... going wrong and rushed over here," Jimin explained.

Taehyung bit his lip. He felt guilty for some reason. He knew he couldn't fix Jimin's sickness, but he knew he could fix his feelings. Maybe he should fix his feelings. He should.
