NAMJOON was sitting on the kitchen stool, staring down at his phone. yoongi wasn't here today so the apartment felt more lonely than usual. this is when namjoon would text jimin back but... it felt... it felt a little awkward and he felt a little guilty that he did not talk to the younger man for quite sometime. it's been three days so he wonder if maybe jimin just decided to forget about him-
'no namjoon don't think like that.'
namjoon shook his head, running his hand through his hair. his fingers slowly traced down to his scar that ran down his face. he gently thumbed at the pink skin that he hated so much.
he thought back to yoongi's words he said after he left to stay over at his boyfriend's, hoseok, place. 'i know jimin has been texting you... and that you're not responding. leaving him like that isn't gonna help either of you. leaving him in the dark isn't gonna make anything better... this is hurting you, so you might as well text him.' he clicked on jimin's icon, eyes scanning over the texts.

namjoon set his phone down gently on the counter, staring at the last text. he didn't really mean to hurt him, he just needed sometime off; but as it's been proven time and time again, silence is deafening.
he then saw the little text bubble appear, which meant that jimin was typing. he gasped and turned off his phone, pushing it to the side, his cheeks a light pink. he gulped. he hadn't felt his nervous in quite a while, he wasn't sure of what to think of it.

jiminie: good morning :)
joon :( : You forgot to give the poor thing a nose.
Good morning. :-)
jiminie: namjoon!
you texted back...
i'm really happy.
how are you?
joon :) : i'm well...
Jimin, I'm sorry for being distant for the past few days
jiminie: Distant?
You straight up ignored me, not even saying a simple bye or im not feeling well.
I thought that you just finally got sick of me.
Or that I did something wrong
joon :): I'm sorry, I wasn't thinking
I was dumb. I didn't mean to hurt you. I had somethings to get settled within me.
There are probably some things I need to tell you but I am not quite ready for that.
jiminie: I understand that we all got our troubles. Just please don't do that again. Cause I like you.
And I don't want to lose you, you're my friend.
i'll wait for you, i'll hear you out when you're ready.

namjoon blinked, reading over the text several times. cause i like you... you're my friend. he wasn't sure of what to make of that, he had a strange feeling in his chest that bubbled up to the surface of his heart. it grew and grew until he was drowning in it.
it was disappointment and hurt.
he sucked in his bottom lip, pushing down that feeling the best he could. until he could no longer feel it. he rubbed his sternum to soothe that ache in his chest.

joon :) : thank you.

but i think i like you more than just a friend. saved as a draft.
