I blinked open my eyes, wincing at the sudden light. Ugh… last night was so… LAST NIGHT! I sprang out of my bed. Was it just a dream? That thought quickly faded when I turned around to see Hobi in Namjoon's bed. I got up and on my way to the sink, kicked the wall for good measure. Hoseok awoke with a jump at the sound. "I see you're alive and kicking." He mumbled sarcastically. I kept grumbling at my newfound realization from last night as I made my way to the sink to brush my teeth. The taste of toothpaste filled my mouth, and all the gunk that had built on my teeth the night before washed away. I also realized I had forgotten to take a shower, so I turned on the water, and stepped inside. The warm water made its way through my muscles, and I felt my shoulders become a little less tense. When I dried off, I put on my fresh pair of pajamas. I would've just walked out of the door in my sleeping attire if Hobi hadn't said, "Hyung, aren't you forgetting something?" I looked down at my blue polka-dotted pajamas and mumbled a little, 'oh yeah', before making my way to the pile of clothes I had put on the ottoman. I grabbed some random outfit due to the fact that I didn't really care how I looked. In fact, I would've been fine going out in my pajamas if I didn't know Jin would scold me for it. Jin… I wonder how Joonie's conversation with him went.
When I walked out of the door, I heard muffled voices that became much clearer when the door next to ours opened. Out the door, came Jungkook, Taehyung and… Jimin. He had a smile plastered on his face, causing his eyes to form little crescent moon shapes. Once they realized Hobi and I were also headed out, they waved. Jimin said a quick, "Hi Yoongi hyung!" in that magical voice of his. My heart began pounding in my chest as the saturation on the world was turned up. Shit. "Uh, hey Jimin…" I mumbled pathetically. Hobi gave me a nudge as to tell me, 'is that really all you got?'. We caught up to the maknaes and I ended up walking next to Jimin. The smell of his hair filled my nose. His shampoo must've been magical, because the scent of strawberries, mixed with the slight smell of water from his shower left me sniffing every 5 seconds.
As we were nearing the stairs, Jimin made a small reach for my hand, and peeked at me in the corner of his eye. I almost flinched back in surprise, but luckily I didn't, because I got to hold Jimin's hand all the way down the stairs. When we got downstairs, there were already people there. Namjoon and Jin were sitting at the table, sipping on their coffee, holding hands, laughing and chatting. They were both grinning from ear to ear. I guess things went well last night.
"Hey, lovebirds," Jungkook shouted. "Quit flirting, would ya?" Jimin looked over at Jungkook and said, "Why should the? You and Tae are always smothering each other." A light shade of read brushed both Kookie and Tae's cheeks. Jimin giggled. The sound filled my ears, and I found myself smiling at it.
"So… care to share what happened last night?" Hoseok pitched. Joonie and Jin glanced at each other and interlaced the fingers and their already held hands. "Well…" Jin began.
Jin's explanation left the maknaes couple wrapped in each other's arms and rest of us feeling extremely single. The fact that I had feelings for Jimin became even clearer when I found myself craving that kind of relationship with him. I subconsciously laced my fingers with his. When the happy couple pressed a peck on each other's lips, I felt Jimin squeeze my hand. When I looked over at him, he was biting his lip slightly. I sight made me hold my breath – yet I couldn't look away. Ah, the world is getting brighter again… wait… no that's not it. Is it… oh no. He was glowing again. It became even harder to tear my eyes away from him now that he literally had a ray of light coming from his body… no, not his body, his lips. Just his lips. What the hell is going on? Jimin suddenly turned his head to face me, and I quickly averted my eyes away from his pink, plump lips. Yoongi, you better pray he didn't catch you staring.
With that, I slipped my hand from Jimin's, knowing I wouldn't be able to control myself if I held it for any longer. I was heading in the direction of the studio, I had some research to do.
