jimin took his hands out of his coats pockets, wrapping it around hoseok's wrist. his lips folded in as he tried to stop the tears from forming, but they still began to brim his lashes with every blink and his chin wrinkled with dots as it trembled.

his wrist, where their names laid, began to sting as it had before namjoon was declared dead. jimin's eyes finally opened after being closed for a few seconds, his bottom lip becoming caught in between his teeth. a sharp breath was inhaled, his eyes diverting his attention from the cars passing by to the wrist he held in his palms.

quickly, he wrapped hoseok's arm behind his back, hoseok shouting out in confusion. "hey, dude," jimin grabbed his other hand before hoseok could do anything and tucked it behind his small frame, "what the hell are you doing?"

hoseok continued to shout loudly as jimin pushed him closer to the edge of the bridge; the wind formed by the cars brushed through their hair. "i'm sorry," jimin muttered as the body before him struggled in his white knuckled grip.

his eyes closed tightly as his screams got louder, and they didn't dare open when the screams disappeared. the sound of cars horns blared as the smack of hoseok's body echoed and replayed in his head like a broken record.

jimin turned his back towards the highway and slid down to his knees, a sob erupting from his body. the sirens of multiple different city forces got closer and closer with each dreading minute. one cop car allowed the others to know that they had found the bod, the one that had been called in only three minutes before hand.

"there's no heartbeat," a man from below the bridge sighed, "he didn't make it," jimin's eyes tightened as more tears slipped from his bottom lashes, throwing his head back to the thick cement molded behind him.

he peeled his eyes open to meet the cloudy, grey sky. "please," jimin whispered to the sky, barely audible to him, "no more deaths now." his eyes followed down to his wrist, red from the new mark created on his skin. his thumb traced the bold line through his friend's name, another tear trailing down his swollen cheeks.

"please."
