It was now 1:53pm.

                     Narrator POV

--Wait, what?? No! Jin, I was just-

--No, no, no, you don't understand. That's exactly what I need!

--...

--I'll move far away, for at least a year or so and come back...

--Jin, you're not being serious right now, are you?

-Jungkook... I can't stay here... I don't feel safe anymore...

--I understand...-- Jungkook finally gave in.

--S-should I tell anyone else..?

--What? No! Are you crazy? They'll try to stop you...

--You're right, I shouldn't...

Jungkook pulled Jin in for a hug.
Jin began to cry, pouring himself on Jungkook's shoulders and he didn't mind that at all.
In fact, he was relieved Jin trusted him enough to tell him everything.
Jin was special to Jungkook and he was happy to see him rely on him.
Jin returned the hug and it triggered something inside Jungkook.

He slowly backed him up so he could see Jin's face properly and kissed him.
Jin didn't move, though.
He didn't reject the kiss, neither did he accept it.
He just stood there, in shock.
Jungkook pulled away lightly and stared into Jin's eyes while he did the same.

--W-what was that for?

--It's just for support, don't worry, we're still friends-- Said Jungkook with a big genuine smile.

--Do friends always kiss in your generation??

Jungkook burst into laughter.

--Jin, of course not! I told you it's just for support, ok? I don't like seeing you in pain so I just went for it... It worked though, right?

--Y-yeah...

               ~A Few Days Later~

Seokjin's alarm wakes him up.
He gets up and quickly gets dressed.
Today is an important day, after all.
Today is the day.
The day Jin leaves Seoul.

He already had everything ready.
All he needed to do now was wake up Jungkook so he'd acompany him to the airport.
Once he finally got him to get out of his bed, Jungkook got ready and got in the car with Jin and drove him to the airport since Jin wasn't good at directions.

They got there just in time.
The plane would leave soon.
Jin did everything he needed to do.
All that was left now was getting on the actual plane.
He looked at Jungkook and cupped his face so he'd look at him too.

--You sure you don't wanna come with me?

--Hey, dont worry about me. I'll be fine. You go enjoy yourself...-- Jungkook smiled at him.

--Thank you... I love you, Kook, I really do... You're like a part of my family; don't ever forget that, ok? Just know if anything happens-

--Jin, stop! You're not gonna make me cry...-- He pushed him away slightly.

--Ugh... Well, it was worth a shot-- Jin shrugged and looked away.

--I should get going now...-- He added.

--Yes, yes you should-- Jungkook smiled.

--Oh, I forgot to give you this-- Jungkook took out a spare key.

-And this is for..?

--It's a spare key to my apartment. I'm giving it to you so you can suprise me when you come back...

--What if you're not there..?

--Jinnie, you know I never leave my house unless it's for you-- He replied back while pinching the elder's cheek lightly.

--Hey, stob it!-- Jin said, grabbing Jungkook's hand and pulling it away.

--Fine... But promise me you won't say when you're coming!

--I'll try my best to suprise you...

--Don't forget to not knock- JSJSJS Get it? 'Cause it's a... suprise... and... it's funny... no?

--Your jokes are worse than mine...

The speakers announced that Jin's flight was about to leave.
Jin hugged Jungkook one last time.

--Don't forget to text when you get there...

--Kook, I'll probably sleep when I get there, you know?

--Oh, true- Well, just give me a call whenever, okay?

--Sure thing...-- Jin smiled widely.

Jungkook cupped Jin's face and kissed him once again.

--This one's for good luck...

--I feel like you're just finding excuses to kiss me now-- Jin scoffed

--Hey, it's only been 2 kisses, ok? Don't feel too special.

--If you say so... Well then, byeee

--Goodbye, Jinnie!-- Jungkook said as he left the airport.

                      Seokjin POV

I took a deep breath and stopped to think about everything for a minute.
I'll finally escape my problems for once.
I'll get out of this hell hole for a while.
I'll forget everything that happened here.
I'll forget every single mistake I made.
I'll forget those who caused me harm.

I'll forget about Yoongi.
I'll forget about Namjoon.
I'll forget about Jimin.
I'll forget about Hos-

Hoseok!?

--JIN!

"Why was Hoseok here?" I said to myself while watching Hoseok run towards me.
The only person that knew I was leaving was Jungkook...
I saw a hand waving in front of my face, signaling me to return to the real world.

--What are you doing here?-- I spat.

--I had to take my sister here, why are you here?

--I'm leaving...

--You're WHAT? No Jin, you can't leave!

--And why the fuck not? All you've done is ruin my life!

--Jin, I'm sorry, I am... please, don't leave...

--If you were sorry, you wouldn't have fucked my ex.

--Jin, I really am sorry! I couldn't control it, ok? I was too caught up in the moment and-

--Hoseok, I know how sex works, I dont need you to explain it.

--Please, just don't leave. I know it's all my fault but, please, stay...

--I gotta go.

--No!-- He grabbed my arm and I yanked it back.

He did it again, this time hugging my arm so I couldn't move.

--Hoseok, let me go or I'll call security.

I realized Hoseok was now crying.
I felt bad but I wasn't gonna lose my flight because of him.
I got the attention of a security guard.
He got Hoseok off me and dragged him outside since he didn't want to move voluntarily.

I finally got on the plane.
After placing my bag where it belonged, I took out my headphones.
I didn't wanna be all gloomy during the flight so I just played Airplane.
I played the Jhope solo first and then played pt. 2 for the first time.

"It's kinda weird how one of the member's voice sounds alot like mine..." I thought while enjoying the rest of the song.
I spent the rest of the flight listening to music and eventually began feeling sleepy.
I still couldn't believe I was getting away from everything.
It all felt pretty overwhelming, to be honest...

"What a time to be alive, huh?" was my last thought before falling sleep.
