The meaning of living| Yoonmin

"Come on Yoongi. We have to go." I whine.

"I'm coming." He walks out of the room.

We walk down the hall towards the front.

""Jimin over her-" Taehyung stops when he sees Yoongi.

I walk over to them Yoongi following. Mr. Kim stops us.

"Yoongi are you going?" He asks.

"We made a deal if he would eat then I would go into town with him." Yoongi explains uneasily.

"Yoongi are you sure your okay?" He asks.

"Deals a deal." Yoongi plays with his fingers.

We board the bus and I let Yoongi sit on the inside. We start to drive away. I see everyone whispering and looking at yoongi. They're not use to him obviously. He puts in his earbuds. We drive to town. Mr. Kim does his usual speech then let's us go out. I see Yoongi playing with his fingers again.

"Yoongi?" I ask.

He doesn't answer.

"Yoongi?" I ask again.

He doesn't answer. I wave my hand in front of his face.

"What?" He asks getting drawn out of his thoughts.

"Are you okay?" I ask.

"No." He shakes his head.

"Jimin, Yoongi are you coming?" Mr. Kim asks.

"I don't think so." I state.

"Well If you do leave just push this button and lock the door I'll be back in a hour and a 1/2." He explains.

"Okay." I say.

He leaves and leaves me and Yoongi alone.

"Yoongi." I try to get his attention.

"Yeah." He says.

"Did I push you to fast?" I ask.

"It's not that." He murmurs.

"I still get uncomfortable around people." He adds.

"Are you still uncomfortable around me?" I ask.

He looks down.

"Yoongi you don't need to be uncomfortable around me." I state.

"Yeah sure." He says.

"What makes you uncomfortable?" I ask.

"I'm always afraid to do anything because of what happened." He explains.

"Like?" I ask.

"When we talk, you sometimes come over to my bed and I don't know how close to be. You jump everything I touch you." He answers.

"You worry about that?" I ask.

"Yeah." He mumbles.

I take a breath and slowly put my hand on yoongis. He's silent. I take it away and put it in my pocket. It's completely silent. I don't know what to say.

"So. That didn't feel weird." I say.

He turns his hand over. I smile softly before putting my hand back in his. He intertwines our fingers. I haven't done this in a long time. Touching someone and not wanting to cry.

"How do you feel?" He asks.

"I'm fine actually." I smile to myself.

"You don't want to cry?" He asks.

"No." I answer.

"How about we just watch a movie on my phone?" He asks.

"Okay."

He puts on a movie and we watch it till the doors open. Mr. Kim walks in.

"Hey kids." He greets.

"Hi." I greet back.

He walks back to us. He sits down.

"So you're holding hands." He smiles. .

I nod.

"Did you get over that fear?" He asks.

"No. I still don't want anyone else to touch me." I Answer.

"Just Yoongi?" He asks.

"I guess so." I enjoy Yoongis touch.

"Anyways you still have 30 minutes. Do you plan on going?" He asks.

"Not really." Yoongi says.

"Okay." He gets up and goes back to the drivers seat.

Yoongi starts the movie again. Soon other kids come back. Yoongi squeezes my hand softly as he turns off the movie. They sit in their seats. Taehyung and Jungkook come back and sit in down next to us. Soon all the kids come back and mr. Kim drives us home.
