So a JinMin AU where JinMin were high school sweethearts but because of the pressures of school, work, and sometimes just life in general, their relationship has kind of become more strained and tense. Jin is spending a lot of time on his movie set with new budding actor Taehyung, who is his coworker but they make really fantastic (and sometimes a little bit flirty) friends while Jimin is a smol bean who works in a local dance studio for kids because he likes providing them an outlet for expression. When they were in school, things were easy. They were easy. They were in love, but now they find themselves more at ease apart than they are together. At first, no one wants to say anything because they've been together for so many years, of course they could make this work right? But slow loss of feelings, insecurities, and just growing up all get in the way. One day, while they're in their apartment, they get into a huge gigantic fight. Jimin feels that Jin doesn't really care enough to put in effort in their relationship, choosing instead to chase after new meat while Jin just feels like maybe this was inevitable because they're not the same Jimin and Jin they once were, so they get into a huge fight. Yelling. Screaming. Hurtful words being thrown towards each other and they decide to break up before one of them does or says something he really couldn't take back. Except the day they decide to apparently move on and out of each other's live, forgoing any type of friendship or contact with each other whatsoever, there's a huge snowstorm and neither of them can leave until the snow lets up. Jin decides to stay in the living room and let Jimin take the bedroom, already making arrangements for himself when the snowstorm lets up. The two do their best to avoid each other except being forced to stay together leads to the inevitable. Jimin discovers some memories locked away in a box under the bed. Memories of him and Seokjin over the years. Tickets to that Big Bang concert they snuck out of their parents house to attend together for their anniversary, their promise rings when they had first graduated high school, a picture of Seokjin that Jimin took when the other performed in his first collegiate play. So many memories...that he just didn't want to deal with. Doesn't know if he even can deal with right now. He would throw them away except it felt wrong to do so. One of them should have a bit of the trinkets of what used to have meaning to them, so Jimin decides to pack the box up. Maybe Seokjin would like these. Except Seokjin doesn't know if he really wants them either. To be bogged down with memories of the past when neither of them is sure they want to remember it in the future. Now it really feels like the end.
