The Blanket | Jikook

-7-

Jungkook brushed his hand through his hair. "I don't know, Hyung. Are you sure this is fancy enough?"

"Kook, calm down." Yoongi set his hands on the younger's shoulders, peeking over one to see in the mirror. "You don't know where he's taking you, right?" Jungkook nodded. "Well, this is fancy enough for a fancy restaurant but casual enough for anywhere else. Perfect no matter where you end up."

"I guess..." He sighed, looking over his outfit one more time. He wore a white long-sleeve button-up shirt tucked into a pair of jeans. Simple. Fancy-ish.

There was a knock on the door. Before Jungkook could complain, Yoongi ran out of the bedroom and answered the door. Jungkook sighed, running a hand through his hair again, then made his way out.

His breath stopped.

When did Jimin get so hot?!

Jimin stood in the doorway, talking with Yoongi. His blond hair was styled back, revealing his forehead. He had a brown long coat open to reveal a black turtleneck and black jeans. He was smiling at something Yoongi had said, eyes half shut.

Jungkook cleared his throat, earning Jimin's attention. Jimin's gaze traveled along Jungkook's outfit, making the younger blush.

"I... Jungkook, you're stunning."

"Uh, thanks." Jungkook lifted a hand, rubbing the back of his neck. "Yoongi-Hyung helped me pick it out."

"Well, he did a really good job."

Yoongi nodded, a smug smile on his face. "I told him it was good but he didn't believe me."

Jungkook made his way to the door, sliding on his shoes and grabbing his backpack. Yoongi was still blocking the door.

"Uh, Hyung, can I go?"

Yoongi turned around, realizing where he was. "Oh, yeah, sorry." He stepped to the side, gesturing for Jungkook to go. "Have fun, be safe, and use protection!"

Both younger boys' faces lit up. "Hyung..."

"I'm kidding. Kind of. Bye!" Yoongi pushed Jungkook out the door before other words could be exchanged.

Jungkook sighed. "Sorry about him."

"It's okay. He's funny."

Jungkook let his eyes travel away from the floor and met Jimin's gaze. "Really?"

"Well... I choose not to answer. Now come on, we should get walking before it gets too late."

Jimin began to walk away and Jungkook followed. Something tugged at his mind. "Jimin... when we first met, didn't you have a car?"

Jungkook noticed the older's ears turn red. "I, uh... stole it from my friend..." Jimin chuckled. "He was so mad at me. I brought him a cheesy card and he forgave me, though."

"Wow." Jimin stopped for a second so they could walk side by side. "So, where are you taking me?"

"It's a surprise! I'm not telling."

Jungkook sighed. "At least tell me how far we're walking?"

"Just a couple blocks for now. That's our first destination. Then we walk another thirty minutes and that's the second destination."

"Two destinations?"

"Yup. Only the best for you, Kookie." Jungkook felt Jimin's fingers interlock with his own, forcing heat into his cheeks. How does he fluster me this much?

They walked in silence. It was comfortable, each boy thinking with themself. As they walked, Jungkook found himself noticing things he hadn't noticed before. Like that fancy lamppost - that had to be new. Or that house with a garden full of beautiful flowers. He found his eyes locking there, wandering over the various colors.
