remember me

*Four*

"Hey, what..?"

Jimin looked to Taehyung, not knowing what to do or what to say. Finding his soulmate just as perplexed and surprised as him, he took the lead and crawled up onto the bed.

The boys hands were shaking, trembling from their place wrapped around his legs. His face baried in the crevice of his knees and small sniffles were coming from him. His shoulders shook with each cry and so did Jimin's heart from the sight and sound.

"..Kookie" calling his name out softly to not scare the boy, he laid a tentative hand down on Jungkook's shoulder. His hand was shook off abruptly when the younger startled from the touch, looking up into his eyes.

The usually empty eyes were wide and staring straight into his, holding so much emotion in them that it frightened Jimin with what he was seeing, gasping at the sight.

He could see the pain and suffering of the boy in front of him. Saw everything that the boy was trying to hide, the wall he had built up had come crumbling down. And now some weird ,unwanted sensation was working its way into Jimin and it was haunting.

"Jungkook?" Calling him again, louder this time as he tried to hide the tremble in his voice.

"..I...I'm sorry" Jungkook sniffled, backing further into the wall, as much as was allowed. "I..I'm sorry, I.." he quickly stood and ran to the small bathroom that sat off to the side.

Jimin looked back at Tae, finding tears welling in his eyes and he knew the cause.
"Tae? Someone...someone hurt him Bear. I can feel it" he fisted his shirt over his heart, gripping the material tightly in his hold. "Can't you? It's like something is sitting on my chest, constricting me. It's suffocating and I saw something, a person"

Taehyung in fact did feel it, felt everything that Jimin had described. It was like he was saying exactly what he was thinking, the younger's emotions had been projected onto them. Was the connection that strong? Now both sat there staring at the door the younger had disappeared behind. Neither moving nor speaking for the time being.

Jungkook fell down against the wall beside the tub. His knees were kept against his chest and he clutched at his ears, trying to stop the voice that called out to him. Two words and it had triggered an episode and he thought he had been doing good. How long since an attack like this had happened? Maybe a couple weeks, that was the longest he had gone. Now it was back, he was back.

Usually the nights is what kept him awake, sleep foreign to him. It was when the nightmares would come, reminding him of a past he had run away from or tried to. No matter how far he ran, what he did to conceal it, it came for him with a vengeance. They would jolt him from his sleep, making it impossible to close his eyes again.

Memories that wouldn't stop playing, going round and round until he was sick. But this was different. His panic that was setting in he couldn't stop it in time, his breathing growing spastic as the males voice echoed around him.

Little one.

Why? Why did it have to be that name in which he was called?

He rocked back and forth, his back hitting the wall on a steady beat as he shook his head back and forth. Hitting his head with his hands trying to fight out the voice.

"..stop" he begged it, pleaded with it to leave him alone. "..please..go away.." he continuously hit his head over his ears. No matter what he did the voice kept calling to him. "..stop"

Hands covered his own stopping the abuse he was giving himself. Another set held his waist, pulling him into a hard chest. Keeping his eyes closed, he didn't have to open them to know who was holding him. As soon as the touch of the others came into contact with his skin the voice stopped. Left with only the tingles of his soulmates contact that spread around his body, calming him down.
