Acceptance

Enigma

Jungkook sat in the office of his management team his fingers drumming on the desk.
"So you want me, Mr life and soul of the party to team up with the only person who doesn't know the meaning of the word fun, doesn't speak to anyone, is like a ghost once shootings over, nobody knows anything about him, well except you and your not giving anything away."
Namjoon frowned , when he had scouted Jimin the boy had been upfront straight away about his past not wanting anything to surprise Namjoons company at a later date. Namjoon appreciated Jimins honesty and had looked up details in case there was ever a backlash, he had been the one who had had to inform Jimin of his Uncles death in prison just this week, apparently other criminals didn't take kindly to molesters and his Uncles big mouth had fatal consequences .
At this news Jimin had seemed to shrink more into himself than ever, the aloof attitude others thought he had hiding a shy scared boy, which is why for this big shoot in Hawaii Namjoon had paired Jungkook and Jimin together in the hope that the two could at least become friends.
"There's reasons for that Jungkook, just like you don't want anyone knowing I'm your brother and you part own this company, Jimin has reasons too."
"Nah I don't want anyone knowing that I have a dorky gay brother, that's all," Jungkook laughed earning a pen thrown at him.
" more like you love pictures of yourself too much and who are you to slur my manly gayness!"
"God how does Jin put up with you?ok then do I get to meet Jimin...., what's his other name?"
"Just Jimin,"
"Hmmm the plot thickens, well he brings in the clients good thing you found him, I've never really met him just seen him in the building."
"Well if you ever decide to actually sit at a desk in the office instead of posing to get yourself seen you would know more about him."
"Does that mean I can look at his file?"
"Nope his file is on my computer only , he will be meeting us in forty five minutes at our favourite restaurant you coming with me or taking your own car?"
"I may as well come with you I can have a nap then,"
Jungkook said grinning at his brother.

Jimin turned up exactly on time, he liked Namjoon he had been especially kind to him he had assured Jimin that his history would never be brought up, he had also invited him to his home where he had met his husband Jin. For once Jimin had felt at ease in others company, Jin treated him like he imagined a loving mother would and he hadn't known how much he had craved that sort of affection, he still kept his visits to a minimum though not wanting to wear out his welcome, sure if he kept turning up then they too would get sick of him.
Walking into the restaurant he gave Namjoons name and was led immediately to a secluded booth, Jimin was ok until he saw someone else sitting with Namjoon, he recognised him as the No 1 model, Jimin immediately felt nervous and twisted his fingers together.
"Hey Jimin come sit down, this is Jungkook."
Jimin nodded shyly at the other not saying a word.
Jungkook looked at the other seeing the nervous hand twisting and the way he stared down.
"Hi Jimin looks like we will be working together in Hawaii."
Jimin shot a glance at Namjoon a worried frown on his face.
"It's ok Jimin, I know you usually work solo but the client has specifically asked for you two, also I thought you might like to get away at this precise time."
Jimin nodded knowing Namjoon was trying to get his mind taken off the events of the week.
Jungkook watched the back and forth between the other two and realised Jimin hadn't even spoken yet.
"So Jimin ever been to Hawaii?"
Jimin shook his head.
Jungkook felt slightly irritated.
"Is your passport up to date ?"
Again Jimin nodded..
Jungkook sighed.
"Don't you think it's a bit rude not to join in the conversation ?" Jungkook asked raising a brow.
"Jungkook!" Namjoon said knowing Jimin wasn't being rude just shy.
"I'm sorry please forgive me," Jimin said in his beautiful soft voice finally looking up fully at the others face.
Jungkook nearly gulped at the angelic face before him his soft voice matching his looks. He gazed at the plump lips and the beautiful eyes, sincerity showing in them.
"Er,um,no I'm sorry, I didn't mean to make you feel uneasy."
"I forget sometimes how to converse with others as Namjoon said I'm usually solo , I will try not to annoy you with my behaviour."
"Surely when you go out you talk with your friends?"
"I-I don't really go out, although I have been to Jin and Namjoons ," he said smiling, his whole face lighting when he smiled.
"Yes and Jin threatened me if I don't bring you round again soon," Namjoon laughed.
Jimin let out a small giggle , the sound drawing Jungkooks eyes to his mouth.
Jimin could see Jungkook looking at him and he blushed lowering his eyes.He had been struck by how handsome the other male was close up, of course he'd seen photographs all over the place of the other after all he was the top model, but the poses they did as models compared to the genuine article were totally different , he knew that from experience , he'd once heard when he was in a bathroom cubicle another model talking about him, how aloof he was from everyone did he think he was better than them, when really he was shy and worried about not being good enough, he thought if he kept himself back then nobody would complain about him, his parents who should have lived him didn't so he was sure it was that there must be something about him that people wouldn't like.
"So I've arranged villas for the staff, one you and Jimin will share and the other for the staff. You leave at the weekend so please make sure your ready, I'll send details of the flight ok?"
Jimin found himself slightly hyperventilating,he'd never lived with someone since his parents even the hostel had given him his own room, he realised he must have zoned out as suddenly he heard Namjoons voice next to him," breathe Jimin your ok"
Jimin looked up  embaressed at his weakness, he nodded to assure the other he was ok.
Jungkook watched all this and perceived that what he had heard about this boy was wrong, he wasn't aloof, he was scared, and Jungkook was determined to find out why.
