You hid a lot more than he imagined behind those hypnotizing eyes of yours. Jimin was enchanted by you the moment he met them and smitten by your small presence in the room. The shadow you cast, however, was a lot bigger than it seemed.
With a dark...
The week went by slowly, but when the day finally came, Jimin was in such a great mood. All seven members walked in the photography studio and were led to their make up stations while you had a word with their stylists and yours.
As you were walking towards them, Jimin expectantly awaited to see who you'd be working with today. He held his breath as you approached him and beamed.
"Good morning, noona" he greeted you with his best smile and you squealed internally. Remain professional, you told yourself in your head.
After greeting him politely, you walked up to Jin on his right and his face dropped. He gave Ara a small smile as she joined him and his stylist for the day once more.
"Good morning, Ara-ssi" he said, trying to hide the disappointment in his voice.
You couldn't help but feel nervous working with Jin today, he seemed so nice, but was rather quiet. Very different from his overly confident persona. As his stylist applied the make up per your instructions, you had an excuse to really look at him. He was indeed perfect, no wonder they recruited him in the spot after a simple glance.
"Do I have something on my face?" Seokjin asked amused when it was just you two. He couldn't help but feel a little weird as you looked at him intently. You seemed to be a bit nervous, so he figured he'd crack a joke.
"Oh, I'm sorry, no. I mean, you are just one of the most handsome men I have ever seen!" you couldn't help yourself, you had to take your chance. You might as well be honest so you don't regret not having talked to your bias at all.
"You are quite observant, I see. I do have some hands" Jin deadpanned and then when you burst out laughing he was startled. He promptly joined you and between his contagious laugh and the jokes he kept telling you, you were crying.
"What's so funny?" Jimin muttered under his breath annoyed as he looked at you and his hyung, you weren't even like this around Hoseok last week.
"What?" Jungkook said looking up from his phone looking dejected. He was sitting to Jimin's left.
"Oh, nothing. I was just looking at Jin hyung over there. They seem to be having fun"
"Ah. Yeah, they do" the maknae said flatly and turned back to his phone.
"Are you okay, Jungkook-ah?" Jimin asked worriedly at the expression on his face.
"Yes" he mumbled, not looking up. He had been acting strange lately, like something was bothering him. Taehyung felt it too, but he couldn't get him to talk to him either.
"Seokjin, you are next, are you ready? After him it's your turn, Jimin-ssi" someone from their staff walked up to them and they nodded. You walked with Jin towards the photographer and stood behind them and to a side to look at him posing for the camera. He was mesmerizing.
"Noona" Jimin cleared his throat and stood next to you, hoping you could chat like you had last time now that you weren't busy with someone else.
"Oh, Jimin-ssi" you said absentmindedly as your eyes were fixed forward, only giving his shoulder a little pat.
"Are you falling for Jin hyung or something?" he laughed softly as he teased you, but you didn't even glance back at him.
"Have you looked at him? How could he not be my bias?" you said incredulously without even looking at him, just putting your hand forward showing the obvious. Jimin looked at your profile with wide eyes.
Your bias is Seokjin? He wasn't expecting to hear this, but then again, why had he somehow assumed it was him? The conversation that followed was rather awkward, while you both talked about the concept of the photoshoot and observed Jin.
When Jimin's turn came, he was hoping your eyes would finally be focused on him. They were until his hyung walked up to you and resumed your chat from earlier. From time to time you'd look his way curiously, but you hadn't paid that much attention to him when it was Jin in his place.
"You go next, Taehyung-ah" he hurried past his friend and then walked up to where you were talking animatedly. He stood behind Jin and tilted his head cutely trying to get your attention. You tried not to smile at this as you focused on what you were talking about with his hyung.
Jimin moved his head from side to side, his smile growing wider as he felt silly, but also managed to get your attention on and off. Your eyes followed the movement and he tried hard not to laugh. When Seokjin noticed your eyes kept going from him to something else, he went to turn around and his dongsaeng flopped on him.
"Jimin-ah, stand up!" his hyung said with a mix of frustration and amusement, catching him as he kept him distracted. You chuckled as Jin gave his back to you and that made Jimin smile the biggest, warmest smile at you. Feeling yourself blush, you looked down.
Jimin reached out to you, stretching himself and extending his arm to you from over Jin's and pulled on your sleeve so that you'd look back up at him. At that moment, Seokjin told you he'd talk to you later and as Jimin went to straighten himself, he tripped and fell on one of his knee.
He chuckled embarrassed as he brought both hands to his face to cover his flushed cheeks. "Jimin-ssi, are you alright?" you asked worriedly, offering your hand, and he took it without being able to stop laughing.
"What was all that about?" this was all adorable, but you were not sure why he had suddenly decided to showcase all his cuteness to mess with Jin.
"Maybe I'm falling for you" he joked referring to his words from earlier and him falling over just now when his hyung moved too fast. If the jokes worked for Jin, they had to work for him too, right? You chuckled helping him up.
"Do those pick up lines ever work for you? Did you find them on the back of a cereal box?" you commented amused and you both giggled at his lame joke. When you finally recovered your composure, you looked at each other with a content smile.
You were nice to be around, he felt comfortable talking to you and you looked a lot less stressed than you were in the beginning. Everything he did made you all flustered initially and he liked teasing you, but it was more fun when you felt at ease and played along.
"Alright, it's a wrap, everyone!" someone yelled and everyone started clapping and patting each other for a job well done. That made you snap out of your little moment, you looked away bashfully and Jimin looked down at his feet feeling his heart beat faster in his chest.
"Shall we go get some food and celebrate?" you both looked up as Hobi placed his hands on one of your shoulders and one of Jimin's, squeezing them lightly. His eyes went from yours to his dongsaeng's, awaiting an answer.
You both agreed excitedly and you soon headed out of the building. With how last week had gone, you didn't feel as nervous going out to eat with them. It was nice to finally have someone to hang out with after nearly two and a half months of having moved to Seoul.
It was slowly starting to feel more familiar and homey. After having left Gwangju to move to Tokyo and then Kyoto, you didn't struggle as badly as you initially had when you'd never lived in a different city or country before.
Getting away from your parents' toxic environment had always been more than enough motivation to help you pull through and adjust to each new place you had moved to. It couldn't get worse than living under your mother's critical eye.
