appointment

6

jimin didn't know how to feel. years over years of being a practical sugar baby, being praised left and right, men kissing the very ground jimin stepped on, he was certainly not used to rejection.

he didn't like rejection, he got involved with these types of things because he knew no one would reject him. besides, he's had enough of being rejected at home.

though the praise from the men was nice, he felt nothing besides sexual desires for them... and their money of course.

but, dr.kim was different, he liked doctor kim. he liked him because he didn't have to take off his pants to be babied, or get on his knees to be taken care of.

of course jimin knew he was doing his job, because he's supposed to take care of you, but it was so much more to him than that.

he couldn't handle the rejection, his sensitive and frail self couldn't take being turned down by someone so mature.

'am i not good enough?'

'is it because im young?'

jimin thought.

days have passed and thoughts festered in his mind, negative thoughts branched from one another, creating a mine of depressive thoughts for jimin.

it was time for another appointment.

he wanted badly to crack Dr.Kim, but he knew he'd get rejected. though he still had to try.

the tension in the room is so thick, you can slice through it with jeongguk's jawline.

"regular check up today, and an update on the pills affecting your system" taehyung says

"okay taehyung" jimin says flirtatiously

taehyung looks up from the clipboard to see a smirking jimin.

'aish this kid won't stop'

he thought.

"I'll need you to lean your head back okay?" taehyung says

he lays the clipboard down and slaps on some gloves.

"anything for you" jimin smiles

taehyung rolls his eyes and shakes his head.

he uses his pointer finger and middle finger to press lightly against jimin's neck.

"ow, ow, ow" jimin says

taehyung immediately retracts his hands from the boy's neck.

"that must be the source of the pain" taehyung says to himself

"dr.kim it hurts.. please kiss it better" jimin pouts

taehyung scrunches his face in confusion before ignoring him and taking the clipboard.

"area of discomfort" taehyung announces what he's writing. he looks up at jimin's neck for reference "between the jugular and esophagus"

taehyung continues writing.

jimin mentally groans of the lack of attention he's receiving.

"ahh mr.kimmm" he sang, wanting to get the olders attention

alas, no avail, the doctor is still writing.

jimin swung his dangling legs off the patient bed.

"ughhhh" he groaned out of pure boredom.

he gripped the edges of the bed and forced himself backward.

taehyung took the chance to look at the boy. he noticed the fading lines on his wrists.

what shocked him were the lines with red and irritated skin around them.

of course, being a doctor, he knew they were recent, and intense..

'the cuts are deep, causing the body to try and heal it quicker to avoid infection all the while patching up the skin'

is something serious doctor taehyung would think

'he cut himself..'

is what he actually thought

'those weren't there before'

he thought

confusion wrapped itself around his brain

'was it because of me? my harshness?' taehyung felt guilt simmer through his veins

"take a picture, it'll last longer" jimin says

taehyung hadn't even noticed he was staring until what jimin said snapped him back into reality

jimin stared at him, waiting for a reply with that brightening smile plastered across his face.

im pretty sure it was then, taehyung knew it was his fault
