"What do you mean, he isn't answering his phone!" Jimin shouted at his brother.

"He hasn't picked up any of my calls or texts in 2 hours. Going to the store doesn't take 2 hours," Jungkook explained, pacing back and forth with his phone in his hand.

"What store did he go to?" Jimin asked, pulling his hair, stressfully.

"I don't know," Jungkook cried. "I'm a terrible boyfriend," Jungkook continued, sitting down against the wall, curling himself into a ball with his head low.

"You're not a terrible boyfriend. It's not your fault. You wanted him to stay here, but he didn't want to. You gave him the freedom to go out alone, that's all," Jimin comforted his sniffling brother. "But staying in this house crying isn't going to make Tae come back," Jimin admitted, pulling out his phone and calling someone.

"Yoongi, we need help can you bring the group over," Jimin said through the phone.

"What do you need help with? I was sleeping," Yoongi mumbled.

"We think Taehyung is missing," Jimin replied.

"Missing!" Yoongi shouted through the phone.

"I'll explain more when you and the rest get here. Just hurry," Jimin ended the phone call.

"Jimin, what if Taehyung is playing a prank on me or something, just to get a reaction from me since I didn't want him to leave," Jungkook said, hoping that was the truth.

"Taehyung doesn't pull pranks, and even if he did, he would see all your worried text messages and would come back," Jimin sighed.

The doorbell rung and Jimin got up and went to open the door. He opened the door to see all of his friends with panic expressions. Jimin stepped out of the way of letting everyone in the house before closing the door. Sitting on the couch, along with the others.

"We need to find Taehyung," Jimin said to everyone. "He went to the store 2 hours ago and never came back. He hasn't answered Jungkook and I since," Jimin shortly explained.

"What store did he go to?" Namjoon asked.

"We don't know," Jungkook mumbled, slowly walking to the couch and sitting next to his brother.

"That's fucking great information," Yoongi swore.

"Yoongi calms down," Hoseok mumbled.

"No, I won't. Taehyung is missing, and we have no clue where he went," Yoongi argued.

"We need to figure it out, not argue with each other," Jin calmly said.

"Why should we? Jungkook should be the one trying to look for his boyfriend instead of crying like a child," Yoongi shouted, then widened his eyes at what he said, along with everyone else except Jungkook. "J-Jungkook I-I didn't mean-," Yoongi stuttered.

"You're right. I'm Taehyung's boyfriend, and I should be looking for him," Jungkook muttered, getting up from the couch and walking to the door, leaving the house.

"What the hell, Yoongi. Learn how to keep your thoughts to yourself for once," Jimin bellowed, then sighed, calming down. "Go after Jungkook before he's gone," Jimin said. Yoongi nodded and rushed out of the house.

Namjoon got up from the couch he was sitting on, to go comfort Jimin.

"It's going to be okay," Namjoon whispered into Jimin's ear. Jimin stuffed his face into Namjoon's chest, crying silently.

"Jimin, your phone," Hoseok said, pointing at Jimin's phone. Namjoon grabbed it and answered it, putting it on speaker.

"H-hello," Jimin spoke.

"Well, it isn't Park Jimin," The voice making Namjoon and Jimin tense up.

"What do you want?" Jimin said, gripping onto Namjoon's sweater.

"It's not what I want. It's what I got. Your precious Taehyungie is with me. I think he would come in better use than you did," The voice snickered through the phone.

"If you hurt Tae. I'm going to kill you, Baekhyun," Jimin threatened.

"I won't hurt him. But your mother and his father will. All you have to do is do what I say," Baekhyun said.

"What do I have to do?" Jimin asked, eyeing his friends for a moment.

"Come here by yourself within the next 24 hours. I'll send you the address. If I find out that you brought someone with you. I'll make sure I did what I did to you before," Baekhyung warned, before hanging up the phone. Jimin got up from the couch and ran up the stairs to his room, slamming the room door. At the same time, the front door was open, Yoongi and Jungkook coming in, still tense.

"Where's Jimin?" Yoongi softly asked, closing the door.

"Baekhyung called him," Namjoon told Yoongi.

"What did he say?" Yoongi stammered.

"Taehyung's father and Jimin's mo-,"

"That's not Jimin and I's mother. She is actually Taehyung's biological mother. So his parents took him," Jungkook explained, clenching his fist.

"Baekhyun wants Jimin to go there alone within 24 hours," Namjoon concluded.

"Hell no. I won't send my brother to that asshole alone," Jungkook refuted.

"Jungkook, if Jimin doesn't go alone...Baekhyun is going to do what he did to Jimin last time," Namjoon reasoned.

"I'm going to check on Jimin," Yoongi said, leaving the area and going to Jimin's room. He knocked on Jimin's door and heard a small come in.

When Yoongi opened the door, he saw him lying on his stomach, facing the opposite way of the door.

"Jimin," Yoongi whispered, closing the door softly before going to Jimin, walking to the side of the bed, where he could face him. He kneeled down in front of Jimin's bed, folding his arms on the blanket, placing his chin on top of them.

"He's going to hurt me," Jimin uttered.

"He's not going to hurt you. I'm here to protect you. I'm not going to allow him to touch you again," Yoongi reasoned, running his fingers through Jimin's hair.

"Can you stay with me?" Jimin nervously asked.

"Of course," Yoongi answered, getting off his knees and going on the bed with Jimin.

Yoongi laid his head on the pillow, and Jimin crawled next to him and placed his head on Yoongi's chest. Yoongi wrapping his arm around Jimin waist and hesitantly kissed the top of Jimin's hair.

"Thank you for everything, Yoongi," Jimin thanked, yawning a little.

"Rest for a little," Yoongi said with a small smile.

"I really like you, Yoongi," Jimin mumbled, going to sleep. Yoongi's smile brightened.

"I really like you too," Yoongi whispered, caressing Jimin's cheek. "A lot,"
