✤EDITED✤

It was only been two days since the argument, and those two days was hell.

The eldest along with the shortest member had manage to avoid the other members like a snake on the runway. They would separate themselves and would only talk to each other, especially Jin.

He had refused and glared at every members if the got to close to him or Sungmin, he has become protective towards the smaller male and never leaving him out of sight. Even when one of them knock on their hotel door Jin would immediately shut them off with sarcastic remark and retorts.

As for Sungmin, he couldn't help but think of what the two members had said to him, like a broken record. He couldn't help but feeling down at the lack of presence from the boys, but he felt comfortable with Jin's company.

The room feel much more bigger as it was the two of them only, Jin didn't mind as he is still angry at the others whilst Sungmin felt a bit lonely and quiet. It's rare to be this quiet since the boys are basically crackheads when it needs to be.

He sighs letting out thin air out from his lips, Jin look up from his book he was reading, he could understand what behind his dongsaeng's sighs but he had no choice but to keep them away for a while.

He wanted to make sure that Sungmin's mental state is stable, after what happen he was sure that Sungmin had become even more self-aware.

Then suddenly, a door gently swing open making the both boys look over, Jin gaze harden when he saw the others, he immediately went in front of the smaller boy protective outstretched arm, hiding him from their sight.

The six males stood in front of them with gloomy and guilt eating face, the fact that they finally had a courage to finally come out of their shell impressed Jin. But, he is still warry.

They stood facing against each other with silence, the uncomfortable atmosphere effect Sungmin that it made him tremble uncomfortably at the tense and chill radiates from the others. It felt so heavy that he wanted to buried himself six feet underground.

Namjoon step forward with head down, not daring to look at Jin's pissed off face.

"We wanted......to say, we're sorry," Namjoon softly said with guilt laced in his voice.

But, before he could continue, a hand raised in front of him making a stop indication. Jin's eyebrow twitch as he forcefully smile, "How can I trust you guys that you won't hurt one of us again?"

Silence are in the air, again. Biting the bottom of his lip, Hoseok stood forward before Namjoon could say anything. He then bow slightly, surprising Jin and Sungmin.

".....It's my fault that this happen, I should've listen to your reason first before jumping into conclusions. I- I mean, we didn't realise that Sungmin was sick during that day," Hoseok explain with voice full of guilt and pain.

"How did you know that Sungmin-ah was sick? We didn't-,"

"Manager Sejin found thermometer and fever medicine on the table side in your room, Jin-hyung. He told us that he might assume that one of you were sick, but after we saw Sungmin lack or energy and clumsy steps we realised that it was him," Namjoon told with detailed explanation.

Taehyung step forward with Jimin and Jungkook following behind," Hyung, we're sorry for not stepping up for you. We realise how insensitive we are for not fighting with you. We didn't know what to do or what we should say because we are afraid that we might made the situation worse. So....."

"....We're sorry," All of them finished simultaneously.

Sungmin blinks innocently, yet gives off understanding smile. He slowly took a soft steps towards the five despite Jin protest, he launched himself to Hoseok. Hoseok let out surprise gasp but put his hands around the tiny body as his gaze soften. They pull put within couple of seconds then turn to hug Namjoon and the rest of the maknae line.

Sungmin stop right in front of Yoongi, his smile falter. Yoongi stood there with calm and reserve expression, but inside he was screaming. Yoongi placed his hand at the back of his neck nervously.

"I- I'm sorry," Yoongi said.

Sungmin just stood there with the same expression, staring deeply at Yoongi's eye. Yoongi could feel the piercing stare. Not within a minute, Sungmin demeanor change as he brightly smile. He wrap his arms around Yoongi's neck making him jump in surprise.

Yoongi slowly brought his hands and wrap them around Sungmin's small, fragile body. He buried his face on the crook of his neck, hiding his flushed, relief face.

Since that day, they have become more closer as ever. Jin had manage to give the boys an earful lectures for the whole two days.
