Jungkook p.o.v

You're not human.
--

"Jungkook", he breathed my name.

I nuzzled my head deeper into the crook of his neck. God, I am so tired.

"Hmm?" I responded. 

"Jungkook."

I pulled away, hearing the stern edge to his voice.

"You know I could never hate you, right?" He asked.

Why did his voice seem so far away?

I nodded. This couldn't be good.

He licked his lips and started again.

"Jungkook," he began again.

No.

It couldn't be.

"Jungkook, please don't cry."

Why was he pleading? This wasn't like his usual self.

"Jungkook...Jungkook!"

I sat upright immediately, gasping for breath.

"Jungkook, you're okay, relax!"

That voice.

Jimin.

And sure enough, there he was. In that familiar, swept back black hair and groggy eyes.

I looked behind him at the clock.

3:00 AM.

It wasn't him pleading me not to cry. It was Jimin.

Jimin sat on the bed and watched me shiver from my dream.

Only it wasn't a dream. It actually had happened in the past, partially.

Jimin brought his fingers close to my cheeks and wiped away my tears.

I had been crying. But surprisingly, I didn't recoil away from his touch.
I basked in the pleasant feeling and let him wipe them away.

"I came to check up on you and when I did, you were whimpering and crying in your sleep." He quietly said.

Up close, I could see the tension creasing his eyebrows and the shadows underneath his eyes.
He hasn't slept a wink.

I remained quiet. So much for my armour.

I could see he was debating how to ask me what happened.

After a few moments of silence, he lowered his voice to a whisper.

"Which word describes this feeling?" He asked.

This feeling, huh.

Am I to name the person responsible for this feeling?

Am I to name the emotion clawing at my heart's door?

So after a few heartbeats and beeping of the monitors and the ticking of the clock,

"Heartbreak."

I didn't even want to speak of his name.
What depressed me even more was that I felt more pain than anger whenever I thought of him.

Jimin nodded.

"You have an art studio, right? You live there as well?" He asked.

I nodded.

His eyes lit up and whispered a quick 'I'll be back.'
