Trouble~pjm

the tenth

"A pajama party? What are you?", I asked Jin. He had just walked in with purple-pink, suggesting that we have a farewell-but-also-a-sleepover.
"They are fun, invite amber.",He gave me a WWH smile. I glared at him.
"Are you seriously the oldest out of them?", I asked. Jungkook howled.
"I am. But I am also the most creative. Don't you know? Even my mind is handsome. Aish.", he rolled his eyes with over-exaggerated swagger, that sent jungkook displaying a 24k-bunny smile. A chuckle passed my lips as jungkook agreed to jin's plan.
"What about practice? How will you practice serendipity? Whom will u practice it with? Jimin or Hoseok?",jungkook bombarded. He sounded all the questions that I was considering myself. Leaving the dorm meant no more dance at 3, I didn't know.
Something was chucked at me. I let it drop into my lap. I held up the key.
"What is this?", I asked
"The dance studio has a second access from the back door. Use it to use the dance studio. We don't use it anyway. It the key.", jungkook said.
I stared and stared at them. They stared at me.
I stood up. They stood up. They were so tall. I walked to them and embraced them.
I am sure my hug was a rib crushing one. I was so grateful, they had let me dream and helped me keep that.
"Thank. You.", I said letting go. Jk stood tall, grinning, while Jin doubled over, panting.
"Are you trying to suffocate me?",he muttered. I just smiled. At my friends. They were. I realised. They were my friends and were completely normal human beings if you ignore the fact that they are unearthly gorgeous and have voices of literal angels and were worldwide legends. Normal.

"tell us your favourite thing to do when alone?", hoseok asked yoongi. I had very well guessed the answer. "Sleep, of course.", Yoongi smirked. Truth and Dare with BTS was something i never thought I'd  be doing, but then, i never anticipated any of this.

"Truth or Dare, Kookie?", Jimin asked as the bottle landed on them, "Dare.", he seemed naughtily determined to cause trouble. Jimin pouted, causing everyone to snicker and grin. such was his effect.

"I really wished you would've chosen truth. Anyway, why don't you just go sit down by the door for the next hour.", jimin pointed.

"Yah, that's so boring, something interesting come on.", Jungkook challenged.

"Why don't you ask Effie out? As a dare?", Hobi perked up, All the attention in the room slid to me. And I squirmed.

"No.", Jimin's voice said, sweet voice, poison tone. "Its my dare to give, don't you see how uncomfortable Effie is? Lets just forfeit this chance.", he said with equal quiet. His face was tight, Lips pressed together. Hoseok looked inclined to apologise but i just offered him a smile. Amber cleared her throat, sidling closer to hope.

"Lets just play on?", she flicked her fingers, making the bottle spin. Hobi looked positively relived and grateful for amber. I smiled at Amber. Several rounds later, Jin declared that he was bored and hungry. Namjoon just chuckled and pulled yoongi and jin by hands into the kitchen. Apparently, they could cook the best.

The others followed, hobi and amber strolling and talking. Amber crackled at something hobi said, it was a sight to watch. I loved seeing her happy. I suddenly missed Rae, a clear memory of returning from the academy and being greeted by Rae and Dad who were in process of steaming dumplings and making a rich sauce to go with it. I should call her, try to mend things with my father, tell mom that i was ok, more than ok.

I felt his hand on my back and stirred back to reality. Jimin's face was concerned, the kind that made my knees buckle. i realised a tear had slipped down my cheek. i reached to wipe it off, but jimin was faster, his fingers were cold and soft. i sniffled once and that was it.

"We are going for a walk.", Jimin ordered, taking me by my hand.

The night was pleasant and cool, There was a faint glow pulsating from the moon, illuminating the pathway. The garden itself was very beautiful, I'd been here before, the several colorful blooms, they were prettier at night. Jimin was walking a respectful distance away.

"I tended this garden myself.", Jimin explained as he crouched over the purple blooms and shook the dead leaves away. That explained why this Garden was so pretty.

"Its beautiful, Very beautiful.", I said, taking in that comforting breeze that smelled of roses.

I strolled ahead but he held my wrist. "why were you crying?" He asked me, the concern and worry in his gaze was very heavy. I sighed, with that came a wave of emotions, he straightened and looked into my eyes, how he towered over me. I couldn't hold it in, i had to vent, I had to tell someone. I took a breath and started speaking, i let the dam down, i let the emotions sound.

I had a vague sense of shame and guilt as I spoke on what had happened over last summer ,How i had given up everything, How I had messed my life myself, what I had done, Whatever happened with Hyun Tan. I could hear his snarl over the void but as I finished my tale of shame and betrayal, I returned back to the garden, i returned back to the rosey breeze and the balmy night. And Jimin. his face was drawn and disturbed. As if my problems were hurting him. I faced him and gave him a small smile. As if the smile was the last nerve, he pulled me into his embrace. Warm and comforting, his embrace was like a lovely flower. i could easily fall asleep in here. He didn't let go, He didn't hesitate, he patted my hair, Lulling the shadows in me to escape, momentarily. It would be very easy to find a future with him. I did not let myself consider.

"I am very sorry, you had to go through all that, And That asshole, Hyun tan, i really wish i could hunt him.", he murmured. I was touched, he had reached into my soul and tugged a part of my soul free. I let him.

He pulled away but his hands didn't leave mine, As if realising it, he stumbled back, but I wasn't ready, not in the least, to let go. i took a step to him, His gaze softened

"Effie", his voice softened, "I am sorry, I shouldn't have hugged you like that, I just, I don't know what i feel for you, i think its very close to a crush, I do know that this is stupid, i just can't keep away.", he was ranting, but i had stopped listening after i think its very close to a crush.

Hadn't I been going through a very similar problem. I liked him, since the moment i first saw him on my laptop screen, i liked him when i saw him hovering over me, i liked him all this time too. i had real, strong, feelings for Park Jimin. He was here too, a beautiful blush creeping up his cheeks, looking everywhere but me.

Why was I denying it?

Was I going to let hyun tan ruin me like that? no.

I walked to jimin, whose attention fixed on every breath i took, i looked at him, let him see all the emotions, and kissed him.
