"Sorry I'm late!"Yoongi pulled his attention from the book he was immersed in and watched as golden strands of hair fell over a small, pretty face. He slowly lowered the novel down to the table, shook his head slightly and straightened his shoulders.
"That's alright. Sit."
Jimin plopped his tote bag beside him and took a seat across from the older man, then adjusted his jacket rather than taking it off as he was still cold despite the contrasting warmth inside the vintage establishment.
"I didn't exactly take you for an aesthetic coffee shop kinda guy..." He spoke in a joking tone while reaching to pull out a notebook.
Yoongi's lips curved to a gentle smirk. A sight people didn't see very often.
"Well, I figured it was better than doing work at school. Besides, the iced americano here is fucking insane."
Jimin chuckled quietly, flipped open his notes and listened to the quiet sounds of glass clacking and chatter surrounding them. His lips pursed out, a contemplating look on his face before he settled his gaze towards Yoongi with a suddenly solemn expression.
"Hyung.." he cleared his throat, tongue suddenly dry. "I just... Well, I'm... really sorry for lying to you before."
"Lying?"
"Yeah.." The blond clasped his hands together. "I told you Gguk and I were fighting when we really weren't..."
"Oh. That." Yoongi reached to sip from his cold drink, eyes remaining focused on his open laptop beside him. "You already apologized for that."
"I know, but—"
"It's alright," was his simple reply, then just like that the two were back to working on their English project.
Jimin found that often times working with Yoongi involved a lot of silence. The man wasn't one of many words, after all. And there was a strangely mysterious aura to him, although Jimin figured those were all things he made up in his head because the man was a gang member.
He'd barely had time to process the fact Hoseok, himself, was in the same gang as the very guy sitting across from him now.
Even so, Jimin found the silence around Yoongi quite... comfortable. There were graceful tones to his movements, a gentle expression on his face at all times. Despite sharing a class with him and just now getting to know him, Jimin thought of Yoongi to be not too bad of a person.
Yes, he was involved in gang activity. And no, he wasn't quite sure of all the frightening things the man was probably capable of.
But even so...
"Last time, we went over the words 'stares' and 'stairs'. Did you understand the difference?"
Jimin blinked a few times, taking a second to break from his thoughts in order to direct his attention to the older's words. "Hm? Ah.. yeah. I remember."
"Alright. We decided to find two more affiliated words, so... would you like to go first?"
The blond looked down at his notes and nodded. "I found 'bare' and 'bear'," he began, "The first means to be uncovered, perhaps naked or raw, and the second is the animal. A bear."
Yoongi tapped his pen against the table approvingly, and Jimin continued.
"And then there's 'hair' and 'hare'. The first is the hair on our heads, and the second... Once again, an animal. Like, a rabbit?"
