Ch. 67
SinnersI sat outside the hotel building on one of the benches, staring straight ahead, ignoring the people who passed me, I had hoped my visit with Hoseok would make me feel a little more at ease, but if anything it made me more on edge.
A hand resting on my shoulder startled me, my whole my jolted, a small scream leaving my mouth. I looked up to see Jimin holding a drink carrier with two styrofoam cups. "Jesus Jimin, you about gave me a heart attack." I said, my heart pounding rapidly in my chest.
"I'm sorry, I called your name I thought you heard me. Can I join you?" He asked.
I nodded my head, scooting over to give him room. "Sorry, I guess I was just spacing out. What's up?" I asked.
He pulled one of the cups from the cup holder and held it out for me to take. "Nothing really. I just wanted to check on you." He took the other cup out of the holder an set the holder down beside him and took a drink from his cup. "I know the whole thing has taken a toll on you and we're all worried, I'm the only one that will say anything though."
I stared down at my own cup, taking a moment to answer. "I'd be this way over any of you honestly. I.. I just can't live with myself knowing that he's out there somewhere, hurt, he could be dying for all we know. I feel so completely useless."

"Whoever this person is or people are, they won't stop until we're all taken care of. We have no clue who it is either, it could be anyone, any where, any time. I won't be able to sleep until it's all over."
Jimin let out a long sigh. "You're right." He agreed. "But not sleeping is just as dangerous, remember that. I was able to sneak up on you an I'm like the worst at keeping quiet." He explained. "Taehyung is already working on it. He will figure it out soon, I'm sure of it. In the mean time, why don't you try to relax a little bit?"
"I don't see that happening." I replied. "I get where you're coming from though. I don't know what else to do other than worry. Unless I start just going up to random thugs ans beating their faces in until someone tells me something I wanna know." I shrugged a shoulder and took a sip of the now lukewarm coffee. "That's actually not a bad idea."
Jimin grasped my shoulder an squeezed it hard, his fingers digging into the skin underneath my jacket. I had to bite down on my lip to hold in the whimper that wanted to escape. "Don't you dare." He said, he soun
