Dilemma

Dilemma Part Five

       Who knew that being in such close proximity to the hottest guys on the planet would come so naturally. Dressing them is a revelation; they are all so toned and you get to see them practically naked!
        You're sewing an extra button onto Taehyung's shirt whilst he is wearing it!        
"You are very pretty," he says, taking the opportunity to flirt with you.
       "And you are very handsome oppa" you flirt back blushing.
        But you can feel a pair of eyes boring into you from behind, someone doesn't like what they can see and hear. When you look round you see nothing out of the ordinary, but you feel a little uneasy.

        Jimin whines that his hair doesn't look right, so you make your way over to him and ask what you can do to help.
       "Do your magic" he declares, smiling at you.
        You two are the last to leave the dressing room because you are fixing his hair dilemma.
        As you turn to leave, he grabs your wrist pulling you into his embrace and says breathlessly "Tae is right. I think you are the most beautiful woman I have ever seen, please spend some time alone with me."
        His mouth just inches from yours and you can feel his hot breath fanning your face.

       Then someone calls him – he is late again. He sighs deeply as he lets go and walks past you. The electricity coursing through your body is so intense you are shaking and all tingly – what just happened?
      
        You stand there dumbfounded. OMG! Jimin thinks you're beautiful and he likes you!?

...

        The show goes without a hitch and it is manic with outfit changes and make up retouches, so you don't get the chance to give the earlier encounter a second thought.
        As the group are singing their final song and bidding ARMY goodbye you and the girls are busy cleaning everything and tidying ready for the next day. It will be easier tomorrow there will be no lugging of equipment beforehand and you won't be packing up until the day after the final show.
       You don't see the boys again as they leave the venue immediately to try and miss the masses that begin to leave the arena.

       About 30 minutes later you leave; heading back to the hotel and you are eager to lay your head on the pillow as exhaustion begins to set in.
       Sejin is waiting in reception to make sure you all get back ok – he is so sweet. He stops you to chat for a moment and the girls leave you there, making their way to the rooms.
       "Well done, you coped very well for one so young. I am impressed at how you handled being in that situation with them. Your professionalism was abundantly clear; they can be a handful at times. The boys were all singing your praises on the way back – but you look exhausted."
       He smiled and you smiled weakly back replying "Well hopefully tomorrow will be a lot easier and I know what I am signed up for now – thank you for waiting and checking up on us - good night Sejin-ssi." you say as the elevator doors close.

        You sleep quite well that night but Jimin appeared in your dream – you hope that you don't talk in your sleep.

        The next day back at the venue, although very busy you notice Jimin trying to gain your attention on several occasions and he insists that you must style him and do his hair. People are starting to notice the change in him; his attitude and the awkwardness of the situation.
        You realise that you have to tackle this head on. You manage to get him alone in a room you have set up as a wardrobe and between the racks of clothes you ask him what is going on?

        "Jimin oppa, why are you being like this? Your behaviour is totally unacceptable, you should not talk to the girls in such a way." Although not strictly allowed, you state matter of factly.
         He bows his head a little looking suitably embarrassed about his attitude. "I'm sorry Y/n, it's just that I...I really like you" he says as he lifts his head and looks into your eyes. He grabs your hand in his. "I saw the way you and Tae looked at each other and I became a little jealous."
         He leaned in, you think he is going to kiss you but instead he aims for your ear and whispers "I can't get you out of my mind. I want you all to myself."
         You realise that you are still holding onto his hand as he gives it a squeeze and a feeling of pure bliss washes over you. But he is PARK FRIGGIN JIMIN this is not allowed.

         "Jimin oppa, I'm r-really f-flattered, b-but we do not know each oth-
           he cuts you off "Then let's get to know each other," he smiles, your legs are weak.
          "Surely this is way off the scale of inappropriate conduct?" you question.
            But he just smirks and says "No one needs to know right now, do they!"
           At this point you feel you must warn him "If you don't tone it down a bit everyone will work it out!" as you let out a little nervous giggle.
           He sighs "Okay, but only if you agree to meet me later after the show."                You relent and affirm "Okay, okay, now get out of here and make sure you apologise to the girls for your behaviour" as you push him back out of the room.

          Only then do you think; What did I just agree to? This is insane!

...

          The show goes off without a hitch and you are grateful that you don't feel as exhausted tonight. After a quick debrief with Sejin you make your way to your room.
          Just as you are about to open the door you hear.
         "Psst...psst" looking to your right you see Jimin's partially hidden smiling face and his hand gesturing towards him; the sign above the doorway indicating that it leads to the stairwell.
           As you reach the entrance his hand grabs yours and pulls you in and up the stairs toward the roof level.

          As you near the top and without really sparing you a glance he enquires, "Were you trying to renege on our deal, or did you genuinely forget?"
          He pushes open the roof access door as you protest that it did just slip your mind. Falling on deaf ears he closes the door behind you and turns to you looking straight into your eyes.

         "Alone at last" as he lifts your entwined hands to his lips and kisses the back of your hand, his eyes never leaving yours.
          The heat transfers from your hand up your arm until it reaches your face and you know you are blushing, so you look down quickly.
         "Don't" he says as he takes your chin between his thumb and forefinger, lifting your face to look directly into your eyes. "I want to see your beautiful face."
         You are trying to even your breathing, but his close proximity is causing butterflies.

        It takes a few moments for you to notice your surroundings.
        The roof terrace is a beautiful garden paradise; an oasis in the middle of a busy city with pagodas and seating.
        He leads you to a bench and you sit down next to him, as he lets go of your hand you feel bereft at the loss of contact.
        He leans over to the side of the seat and produces two glasses and a bottle of bubbles. He has really thought about this.
        As the time passes you both become more at ease with each other and the conversation begins to flow and you are both laughing as he becomes his beautiful perfect self.

        Hours have passed and you realise that it is 4am and time to say goodnight.
        He stands taking your hand and leads you towards the doorway, but as he reaches for the handle he stops and turns, taking your other hand too "I really want to kiss you" he stuns you with his declaration, as he looks into your eyes asking for permission.
        You offer a small nod and he smashes his lips onto yours; letting go of your hands, he snakes his arms around your waist. Seconds later you respond to his kiss reaching behind his head and running your fingers through his hair.

        Eventually you both break away breathless as he leans his forehead on yours and hums in approval.
       "I knew those lips were going to taste good. I could become addicted" as he reaches for the door and leads you silently back down the stairs.
       At the doorway to your floor he pecks your lips and whispers "Goodnight Y/n, thank you for spending time with me. I hope we can do this again soon.
        You smile and reply "You too oppa – I really enjoyed your company. see you later."
        You are on cloud nine as you quietly enter your room and change into your pj's and slip silently into bed. You gently run your fingers across your slightly swollen lips remembering the feel of Jimin's lips on them as you drift off to sleep with a big smile plastered on your face.
