Taehyung was a little tense around Jimin the next day. Jimin had seen him naked before, but this was different. Jimin was literally gonna touch him! Or was he? He shrugged his shoulders. He should just let it go and wait until he is sure he wants to do anything.

Taehyung was innocent and had never done anything with anyone, besides kissing ofcourse. When Jimin left kisses all over his body it did feel really good, but did he want it already?

"What's wrong?"

Taehyung looked up, realizing he was still with the other members eating breakfast, making circles with his index finger on his empty plate.

"Aren't you gonna get anything?" Hoseok asked. "U-uh yeah, I am, I was just thinking about... stuff," Taehyung mumbled, Hoseok and Yoongi nodding, understanding it was something about Jimin, since Taehyung was lightly avoiding him ever since they got down to eat together.

Taehyung got up and walked over to the buffet. He picked up a croissant and a cup of orange juice and sat down at the table again.

When he lazily started to eat the croissant he felt Jimin staring at him. Taehyung was getting slightly nervous and bit his lip.

Taehyung slowly looked him in the eye, seeing the worried look in his eyes.

Then he noticed everyone was looking at me.

"What about me? I'm fine," Taehyung mumbled, chewing on his croissant and taking a sip of the juice.

"Anyone could see that you're not," Jimin stated, seeming to be slightly irritated but also a bit sad.

"I can't talk about it around all these people okay? I don't even want to talk about it anyways," Taehyung sighed and drank his juice.

"You can always talk with me about it," Jimin said, trying to ask if it was about something between them. Taehyung shook his head. "Not now."

Taehyung thanked god for his bangs so nobody could see his teary eyes. Why was he so upset? He didn't even understand. He really didn't feel like doing a concert tonight. Taehyung sighed. He would feel better when he'd see all the ARMY's, he always does.

The same evening Taehyung found himself sitting on the couch in their dressing room, preparing themselves for the concert.

The others were already dressed up, putting their jackets on, but Taehyung hadn't even put his white shirt on yet.

"Taehyung, hurry up, we don't have much time!" Jimin whined at him. He sighed deeply and put on the shirt, slowly buttoning it.

He put his jacket and shoes on and sat down and let the stylist fix his hair and make-up.

Namjoon had been worried about him all day, and Hoseok had been clinging onto his side, trying to cheer him up and make him feel better. But it didn't work.

He couldn't force a smile nor a laugh today. All because he was worried about what Jimin would think of him when he would tell him what's going on. He didn't want to think about it.

The seven boys slowly made their way to the stage, receiving their microphones. Taehyung sipped from the shared waterbottle and did the yell they always did before a concert or any performance actually.

Just when Taehyung wanted to go along with the other boys and get in position, he felt a pair or arms embracing him, pulling him into a tight hug.

Jimin.

He knew it was him. He saw his small hands fondled together, his breath on his shoulder, tickling against his neck. "You can do it Taehyungie, don't worry. We will talk whenever you're ready for it," Jimin spoke, and ran off to the other boys, quickly followed by Taehyung. He felt slightly better.

The same night he was laying in the big kingsize bed again. Jimin was still taking a shower, since he came in later. Taehyung had already showered and covered his pillow with a clean towel so the pillow wouldn't get wet.

Taehyung fiddled with the hem of his sweater and stared at the ceiling. Maybe he should just tell Jimin about his non-existent sexual experience. He knew he should. He just didn't want to bother Jimin with it. They were both soon to be 24, they were grown men.

Well... men...?

At least they were adults. That didn't mean they had to behave like they were. Both boys were still very playful. No one really cared about their age though. They just made fun and lived right in the moment.

When Jimin came out of the shower, Taehyung was already sleeping. He was hugging one of his pillows from home and had a little smile, growing wider little by little each second.

He wondered what Taehyung was dreaming of. Would it be him? Or maybe another member? A family member? An army? He shrugged his shoulders and lay down in the bed.

Jimin put his arms around Taehyungs waist and tangled one of his legs between Taehyungs. Jimin softly smiled. "I love you Taetae," he whispered, and kissed his cheek, like every other night they spent together. "Goodnight."

Taehyung woke up that night from a strange sound. He slowly opened his eyes and rubbed them since he could barely see at first. He saw that one of the lights on the night stands was on, and the light in the bathroom was too.

Taehyung lightly frowned but shrugged his shoulders, assuming Jimin probably just had to pee or something.

His frown got deeper as soon as he heard weird gagging noises coming from the bathroom.

Taehyung stood up. The floor was cold and didn't feel too nice against his bare feet, but he decided to ignore the cold feeling. He slowly walked over to the bathroom, not wanting to make any loud sounds.

At that moment he heard Jimin puke, and Taehyung almost stormed into the bathroom.

Right there he found Jimin on his knees in front of the toilet. His hands grabbed both sides of the toilet seat and if Taehyung was honest, it didn't look too good.

Taehyung sat down behind Jimin, rubbing his back and telling him sweet words, saying it's okay. When Jimin calmed down again he washed his mouth, face and hugged Taehyung.

"Thank you...," Jimin softly whispered. "You're welcome sweetie."

It was silent for a minute. Taehyung just held Jimin in his arms. He wanted to go back to bed and cuddle with Jimin, the bathroom tiles were so cold...

"Why won't you talk to me about your problem?"
