002 - Jimin

Jimin breathed out slowly through his nose as he and the other members waited for the seven fans to enter. The plan was to greet them as the rest of the fans coming to watch the concert filed in before getting ready.

He was curious to see what his fan would be like, and rather nervous as to whether or not she would ask about his abs. That kind of service would be really awkward in such an intimate place.

"Everyone," a voice rang across the dressing room. "I have with me here the seven lucky fans that were selected to meet our Bangtan Boys." The boys took this as their cue to line up just in front of the doorway. The manager ushered in six girls and a young man who stood in a clump in front of the members. Jungkook stood straighter beside him and muttered,

"No way." Jimin peeked at him through the corner of his eye and looked at the group trying to see who had caught the maknae's attention, but his eyes instead locked with a girl smaller than him that looked his age who was wearing an incredibly baggy shirt, yet wore tight jeans that hinted at a voluptuous figure.

She immediately broke eye contact however, when his eyes returned to her own. Rap Monster began their introduction,

"2, 3! Bang! Tan!Hello, we are Bangtan Boys!"

"I will now read out each fan's designated member." The manager announced, holding a sheet to his face.

"Suga has been partnered with Bong-Cha-ssi. Rap Monster has been partnered with Chul-Moo-ssi. Jin is with Chung-Cha-ssi. J-Hope is with Gi-ssi. Jungkook has been partnered with Daye-ssi. V shall be with Joo-ssi and Jimin shall be with Eunij-ssi." Jimin blinked as he saw the curvy girl he'd made eye contact with just seconds before coming over to him. He bowed.

"Nice to meet you. I'm Jimin." He grinned as he walked to meet her. She also bowed back.

"Hello. My name is Eunji. It's a big honour to meet you so up close and personal like this."

"No, thank you for wanting to meet me. It's nice to be the goal of such a dedicated person." He rushed to reply. She smiled brightly at him and they stood just smiling at each other.

"Dress-up! All fans need to go to the TV room!" The manager called. Jimin glanced over his shoulder before looking apologetically back at Eunji.

"I should-"

"Go change, ab man." She teased, pushing him gently in one direction as she made her way to the door. His mouth fell open in surprise before he laughed aloud as he walked to his area and began to remove his shirt.

He could already tell that Eunji would be fun to talk to, and even though she'd talked about his abs, she had joked, so it wasn't awkward. Maybe he didn't need to worry so much after all.
