TWENTY-THREE

„YOONGI." JIMIN RESPONDS, his breath heavy and long, „I saw him."

„What happened?" Hoseok asks carefully, placing his hand on Jimin's shoulder to calm him down.

„He- I don't know it was- really short a-and I saw blood. And his face." Jimin says, looking blankly in front of him as he tries to remember his vision but it was too short. Just a second, a short image, of him touching Yoongi, as he's covered in blood.

It was strange because Jimin has never really been part of his vision, he has never seen himself in one of his visions.

„Blood?" Taehyung asks while averting his gaze from Jimin to Hoseok, who's also taking a look at his partner. On both of their face is worry written all over it, as both of them are now pretty scared about their friend.

„Are you sure it's Yoongi?" Hoseok adds and Jimin nods almost immediately.

„We- we should call him." Jimin says and Hoseok nods as he looks for his phone to call the elder.

Both Jimin and Taehyung are looking at Hoseok, waiting impatiently for Yoongi to pick up, but as soon as Hoseok dialed his number, the line would cut off, the mailbox starting to say that the called number is not responding.

„It's hanging up right away." Hoseok says before trying to call him again.

„What's his mission?" Taehyung asks.

„It was just bodyguarding someone." Jimin responds, standing up from the bench they placed him on, „Actually he should be done by now. It's almost 6 pm."

„Okay we should inform Commander Kim." Hoseok says making the others nod in agreement.

„I will ask Officer Jeon and Detective Kim if they have heard from him or seen him." Taehyung adds and right after they leave the training room to find the others.

Jimin follows Hoseok to their Commander's office, where they after knocking on his door, enter the room immediately.

„Sergeant Jung, Jimin?" The Commander says with a frown, „What brings you here?"

„Have you seen Sergeant Min?" Hoseok asks approaching the male who's sitting at his desk, a pile of paper work right in front of him, „Has he returned from his mission yet?"

„No- I haven't seen him today at all. Why what's wrong?" Namjoon responds the frown on his face growing bigger.

„Jimin he-"

„I had vision." Jimin says, interrupting his team mate, „It was about Yoongi. I didn't see much, it was just short but there was blood."

The commander leans forward resting his face on his hands as he starts to think what this could possibly mean and especially what to do next.

„Okay we should try to ask other officers if they have seen him today and trying calling him again." Commander Kim suggests, „I will call the place he had to be today and ask about his task, maybe there were complications."

Agreeing with their Commander, Hoseok and Jimin leave the office to go around the department and to ask about their team mate. Namjoon said they shouldn't panic, maybe the vision isn't about to happen soon. Maybe Yoongi is save.

But the vision was anything but normal - it's not only that Jimin saw himself in his vision, that he was part of it, being the one who was holding Yoongi in his arms - the most scaring part was, that Jimin felt something. His vision made him feel pain, strong pain, it made him feel heartbroken and scared.

And this is what concerns him the most.

They really need to find Yoongi or else he will go insane.

The following hours were like torture for Jimin, he felt anxious and really nervous as they were trying to reach Yoongi. Everyone was concerned but no one felt like Jimin - not because they don't care about their team mate no, it's because they didn't see and feel what Jimin did in his vision.

They were trying to find Yoongi, but in vain. His mission has ended successfully but there's no sight of him.

Everyone went back home and they are now waiting patiently for Yoongi to come back. Jin and Namjoon stayed at the department to wait and see if there'll be any calls about their team mate.

Jimin is about to go crazy as the time passes by without any sign of Yoongi. The others tried to calm him down, telling him that he probably just went out after his mission and will be back home soon. But nothing really helped Jimin. The feeling in his chest won't go away.

They are gathered in the living room, sitting on the sofa as they wait for Yoongi's return.

It's almost 10 pm, when Jimin suddenly hears a familiar sound, a loud engine approaching their house.

He immediately knew where the sound comes from, making him jump up from his place before rushing outside without saying a word.

Arriving in the front porch, Jimin spots him, getting off his bike before taking off his helmet as well.

Jimin frowns, his heart beats fast in his chest and even though he can't explain this feeling, he still walks up to his partner.

With a strong punch on Yoongi's chest, Jimin takes the elder aback, making him yelp for a second.

„What the fuck-?!"

„Where the fuck have you been??" Jimin says loudly, pushing the elder with both of his hands.

„What's going on??" Yoongi asks confused, while looking at the male in front of him, a big frown on Jimin's handsome face. Even with a frown, Yoongi can't help but lose himself in Jimin's beauty.

„Fuck you-" Jimin mumbles before throwing his hands around Yoongi's neck, pulling the elder into an unexpected hug. The dark haired male raises his brows, his eyes opened slightly wider, before he places his hands around Jimin's waist, responding to the hug quickly.

It's a strange feeling, they've never been this close, except for their moment in the locker rooms, but other than that they shared no touches, no closeness. At least not this way. So it's even more shocking to Yoongi, feeling Jimin's arms around his neck while holding him by his waist, being this close to him, smelling his scent so intensively.

Staying this close would make Yoongi lose himself completely.

Gladly Jimin pulls away almost right away, before pushing Yoongi by his chest with his hands once again.

„Why the fuck didn't you pick up your phone?" Jimin says angrily, „We were so worried, you idiot."

„Why- what's even going on??" Yoongi asks still confused about Jimin's behavior.

„I- I had a vision today." The younger explains, „About you getting hurt- you bitch didn't even call me!"

The elder frowns, firstly because of the vision, which indeed concerned him for a second, secondly because of the last part, which causes a smirk to appear on his lips.

„I don't even have your number, you idiot." Yoongi responds with an almost invisible smirk on his lips while leaning slightly forward to Jimin, so that their faces are closer than before.

The younger opens his mouth to respond, but closes it again as he doesn't know what to say.

„Screw you, Min Yoongi." He mumbles, „You made us worry for nothing."

The elder chuckles, before ruffling Jimin's black hair shortly, „There was no reason to worry about me at all. I forgot to charge my phone last night, so I left it at home and after my mission I went out, Mr.-I-worry-too-much."

„Of course I worry." Jimin responds, „You are my partner."

The smile, the soft smirk that rested on Yoongi's lips dropped the same moment Jimin mentioned the word ‚partner'. As if someone said something dark, the expression on Yoongi's face went cold and distant.

Jimin immediately notices the change, making him suddenly nervous and somehow even worried. Why the sudden change?

„About that-" Yoongi starts but Jimin cuts him off.

„About what?" He asks with a stern voice. Anger and worry build up in his chest, taking over his mind immediately.

„Us being partners." The elder continues, while Jimin frowns even more, crossing his arms to listen to Yoongi, „I never agreed on that, you know that.. It won't work out I-"

„The fuck are you talking about??" Jimin interrupts taking a step closer to Yoongi, „You were the one who called us partners first! There's no going back now."

„It- I didn't mean it that way. We can train together, I can teach you but-"

„But you don't want to work with me?! I'm sick of hearing that!" Jimin says, pushing Yoongi with his hands once again, „Is it about what happened last time?"

Yoongi shakes his head before sighing and touching the spot between his eyes as he tries to figure out how to explain himself the best.

„No it's just- I can't."

„Well fuck you." Jimin responds, making a short break before taking a step back, „Seriously fuck you. This meant so much to me- but I guess I'm still not worthy enough to work with you."

With that he turns around, heading back to the house, now noticing the others male that has arrived outside as well. Jimin passes by without looking at them, he doesn't care if they heard their conversation or not, he just wants to be alone right now.

It's so frustrating, being rejected over and over again, even if they got along so well the last few weeks. Everything was perfectly fine, Jimin was so sure that they will be a good team once his training is over.

His skills has improved so much in such a short time, he became pretty good at shooting and fighting, his physical fitness and strength have gotten better as well. Controlling his power is now easy, the iron manipulation is working extremely good with barely any mistakes. The power of future vision is still hard and Jimin has no control over it but other than that he's good in everything.

In such a short time Jimin has learned so much and improved a lot and still Yoongi doesn't want to work with him.

It's making him so angry, arriving in his room he slams the door, trying to get rid of his inner anger but it's extremely hard. It's almost impossible for him to calm down, because Yoongi's words - they hurt him. Real bad. And whenever Jimin feels hurt, he actually feels angry as well, it just turns into anger because being hurt is a weakness - at least for Jimin.

That's the last thing he wants to be, weak.

So once again he has to stay strong, to stand up for himself, because in the end, no matter how good things seem to go, there's only him - no one else, just him.

So he will and has to be strong for himself.

The next day started with his mood being at the lowest, he even stood up earlier so that he doesn't have to meet one certain male.

„Oh Chim you're already awake?" Hoseok says as he spots Jimin walking down the stairs, a grumpy expression on his face.

„Obviously." Jimin responds while rolling his eyes.

„Oh damn- you already sound like Yoongi Hyung." Hoseok says with a chuckle before walking up to the younger male to join him in the kitchen.

„Don't say his name, please." Jimin mumbles with a groan, before grabbing the cup of coffee he just made himself.

„What happened with the two of you? We saw you arguing yesterday night.." The elder asks carefully, his voice now soft and serious.

Jimin frowns before taking a sip of his drink, trying to figure out if he should talk to Hoseok about it or not.

„He's being a bitch again." Jimin responds, leaning back on the counter, „Refusing to work with me as a duo."

Hoseok nods while pressing his lips together, as if he wants to say something but has to stop himself from doing so. Jimin notices the reaction of the elder, making him frown in result.

„Is there something I should know?" Jimin adds, raising a brow at the same time.

„There's indeed. It would make it easier for you to understand him." Hoseok starts before rubbing the back of his neck, „But I'm not in the position to tell you that. You should hear it from him. Maybe it will make more sense to you then."

Before Jimin could respond to what Hoseok said to him, their conversation gets interrupted by a certain male walking or more like jumping down the stairs.

„Good morning my friends." The black haired male says as he walks up to Jimin and Hoseok before placing his arms around both of them.

„I'm pretty sure I interrupted some serious talk but I don't care actually so- which one of you is making me a coffee?" Taehyung says while looking back and forth between Jimin and Hoseok, causing both males to roll their eyes but then smile in result.

„I already made you one, silly." Hoseok responds as he points at the cup that's on the dining table.

„You are for sure the best Hyung in the world." Taehyung responds dreamily, pecking Hoseok's cheek shortly before approaching his coffee.

„So Jiminie, are you coming with us today?"

That was Jimin's intention when he woke up earlier this morning. Because today's plan is to avoid Yoongi as much as possible and to drive to the department with someone else.

So that's what he did, he drove to work with Hoseok and Taehyung, the duo would talk to him the whole ride, about different things but mostly about his training. They are impressed how Jimin improved and are excited for his test that's coming in a few weeks.

It's a shooting, fighting, physical and theoretical test, a shorter and slightly easier version of the one, that the officers have to do to pass their training.

Jimin's test will include using his powers, but also the others skills he learned in the past few weeks. After that, if he passes of course, he can start working for real.

The question is, if he will work alone or with Yoongi.

Avoiding Yoongi seemed to be easy and good at first, but now his last training for the day is with this certain male.

With a sigh he approaches the training room, where he should practice his defending and fighting skills with the said man.

But instead of spotting Yoongi, waiting for him, there's another male in the practice room, getting ready to start his session with Jimin.

As he notices the younger male, with black hair and tattooed skin, a shiver runs down his spine, making him rethink his plan.

Now he wished he would rather work out with Yoongi, than with him. He scrunches his nose, a rather unpleasant expression on his face, „Oh Jesus."
