~ Chapter 18 ~

During the walk to the exit of the garden, Jimin chatted away. Your mind kept wandering back to Yoongi. You thought about how he must be feeling right now. How he thinks that Jimin likes you. And how any of this actually happened. One thing kept bugging you. Do they just feel pity for me? Do they just feel this way because they know my troubling past? Is it because I've gone through all these things and grown from them that they like the idea of me? Or do they like me?

Running through Jimin's mind was what he saw from a distance. He contemplated his relationship with his fellow band member and with you.

But for now. The present. You snapped yourself back to the silver-haired man next to you who concerningly looked the most depressed you've ever seen him. You cared for him more than you'd like to admit so it really did hurt you to see him like this. 'I'm really excited for our ice cream date!' You exclaimed and Jimin's head shot up from its drooped position and he looked surprised for a split second before closed-eye smiling back at you. 'What's your favorite flavour?' You asked, trying to cheer him up.

'I like pretty much every flavour. Ice cream is ice cream. It's delicious no matter what. What about you?'

'Hmm, it would have to be mint chocolate chip.' He looked at you humorously disgusted and you raised your brows with an offended smirk before the both of you burst out laughing. 'I don't see what Namjoon has against the poor flavour.' Jimin sputtered through his laughter. Neither of you could contain yourself as you finally reached the gates of the garden and walked out of the forested area into the blazing sunlight.

You saw Namjoon talking on the phone and you quickly stopped laughing as he looked up at you two with a serious expression. 'Jimin's back with Y/n. I'll call you back.'

'Hey Joon!' Jimin said as Namjoon jogged up to you. He seemed seriously uptight as you and Jimin explained where Yoongi was. He told off Jimin for leaving you alone and you had to hold back a little snicker to which Jimin lightly elbowed you in the side.

'Just make sure to stick together. We have buddies for a reason. And as for Yoongi, we'll get someone to find him.' Namjoon told you.

'Uh, I don't think you need to go look for him.' You blurted out and regretted it the moment you said it -- you did not want to explain this. They both looked at you curiously and you continued. 'It's just that he probably wants time by himself after...' you're digging yourself further into a ditch at this point. Hoping to glaze over what you said, after a moment of scrambled thought you continued, '... after finding such a beautiful spot! Yeah...'

Real f*cking smooth y/n.

Namjoon nodded. 'We're going to get some ice cream. See you later Joonie!' Jimin said and you turned to walk away from the awkward conversation.

'Make sure to be back at the bus by 1pm.' Namjoon shouted back at you guys. 'Got it!' You said as you turned to wave back at him.

'He seems like a really great leader.' You commented to Jimin, a grin on your face as you spoke your thoughts out loud.

'Yeah. The best. He really does take care of us and makes sure we're ok. He is basically the only voice of reason at points which we all really appreciate and sometimes desperately need haha.' He gushed about his leader, making you smile at the love the seven of them share.

'Your relationship is so cute. I think it's one of the reasons why so many people absolutely adore you guys.' You said and Jimin gave you an appreciative smile. 'I sometimes wish I had 6 best friends who were like family to me, but I appreciate my best friend slash basically biological sister at this point, Kara. We've gone through a lot together. I guess it's similar to what you guys have. And I also have you guys of course now!'
