Empty.

That's what he felt. In fact he didn't feel anything, He wasn't sad or happy. It was like his body was there but his mind was gone.

He held an emotionless stare at the white wall of his dorm room. He hadn't spoke when Jimin tried to talk to him. He didn't move, not even to use the bathroom. He didn't eat.

"Come on Innie" Jimin's calm voice filled his empty head.

"You have to eat, please. You haven't eaten in four days"

His voice was full of worry and Jeongin knew it was his fault. He didn't want his bestfriend to worry.

"I'm not hungry" Jeongin whispered. It was the first time he spoke and Jimin counted that as progress.

"Okay" Jimin said softly.

He put the plate of food on the nightstand before sitting down on the empty side of the bed.

He looked down at his hands, twiddling with his thumbs. "It's my fault"

"I shouldn't have left you alone. I told you I wouldn't leave you alone and I did. I should've stayed with you, I'm so sorry Jeongin" Jimin sobbed, tears running down his cheeks.

After the night of the party, he had noticed Jeongin seemed a bit off. Not responding to what he was saying, not moving from his spot, flinching when ever he got too close.

He had also been waking up in the middle of the night crying, if it was worse he would wake up screaming and kicking around.

He refused to get up and go to any of his classes. Jimin having to get his notes for him.

It was only when Chan had called him two days after and told him about what happened was when he realized why Jeongin was acting the way he was.

And he blamed himself.

Jimin felt the bed shift behind him and that's when he felt arms wrap around his waist, back hugging him.

"Its not your fault, hyung" Jeongin said softly, holding him tighter.

Jimin closed his eyes shut as a few more tears escaped his eyes. Jeongin never calls him 'Hyung' unless he's very very serious. Which was rare.

"It's nobodies fault. Not yours, not mine, even Taemin. It isn't his fault. Don't cry Jiminie"

Jimin wanted to ask exactly what Taemin did but he refrained from it. Gathering ideas from the bruises on Jeongin's wrist and marks on his neck.

"Okay" Jimin whispered, opening his eyes. He wiped the tears from his cheeks

Jeongin let go of Jimin, allowing the older to get on the bed and slide under the blankets.

He had snuggled up to Jimin's chest, feeling warm and loved as Jimin wrapped his arms around him.

"Movie?" Jimin asked as Jeongin snuggled into him.

Jeongin looked up at him  "Yeah" he smiled.

It wasn't the usual bright and happy smile he had but at least he smiled and Jimin counted that as a win in his book.

Jimin grabbed his laptop and began browsing for something to watch. As he was browsing, he felt Jeongin get off the bed.

"Where are you going?" Jimin asked.
