I'm sorry, I had a lot of work last week so I wasn't able to finish this chapter. I hope you understand.

Thank you for reading!

After the rumours were pretty much cleared, you and Jimin decided to go on a beach date.

He insisted on picking you up, saying that it's his job as your boyfriend to do that.

You walked to the front of the building and saw Jungkook there.

"Y/N! Where are you going?" Jungkook asks.

"The beach," you simply say.

"Oh. It's going to be a little windy today." he comments.

"Huh. Well, thanks for the heads-up."

"Who are you going with?" Why does this feel like a mini-interrogation?

"Just Jimin," you say, not exactly sure if you should let Jungkook know about your relationship with him.

"Oh." he simply says. He looks a little...disappointed. I thought he wanted us to be together...

A honk from Jimin's car snaps you out of your thoughts.

"M- Y/N!" Jimin calls out, careful about what to call you in front of someone else.

"Jimin's here. I'll talk to you later," you quickly say to Jungkook.

"Ah, alright," Jungkook replies, before turning to Jimin and saying, "Take care of Y/N, Jimin-ssi."

Jimin playfully salutes to Jungkook, and opens the door to the passenger seat for you. 

"My lady," Jimin teasingly bows and motioning for you to go inside.

A smile tugs at the corner of your lips.

During the car ride, as he drove, his hand remained on yours the whole time as you two talked.

Somehow, the topic of first loves came up.

"Who was your first girlfriend?" you ask.

"You," Jimin says, smiling.

"Wait really? You've never dated anyone before?" you ask.

"No, not really." he says, "What about you? Taemin?"

"Yeah." 

"How did you guys even meet?" he asks curiously.

"It was my debut stage. It was my first time at a place like this, so I was a little overwhelmed and nervous, Taemin was there and he helped me a lot. He gave me some really useful advice that day. Another time, I bumped into him again at a cafe nearby, and he actually recognized me. We exchanged numbers, and we became friends."

"Oh wow. He seems different now."

"Yeah, he changed. I think that our breakup did something to his pride," you say. On your bad days, this always eats at you.  

"Jagiya, it's not your fault." Jimin says. You didn't know how much you needed to hear this.

"I know," you say, before turning to him, "Let's not talk about stuff like this when we're going to the beach."

"Ok."

~~~~~~~~~~

After arriving at the beach and placing some of your belongings in lockers, you and Jimin go your separate ways to get changed. You change into a baby blue bikini and tied your hair up into a high ponytail.

When you walked out, you saw that Jimin was already there, waiting for you. 

He was standing there, shirtless and exposing his toned torso.

While admiring his chest, your eyes travel down to his abs. They were so well defined. So...beautiful. There was no other way to describe it.

Your gaze travels lower, along his v line. You wanted to see more, but the towel that he was holding blocked your view.

With a towel draped over his arm and a small bag on the other, he walked over to you, although you were too busy checking him out.

"Come on, I got a spot for us," Jimin says, slightly startling you. If he noticed, he didn't say anything.

You follow him and take the sunscreen that you two brought. 

Passing the bottle back and forth, you two apply the sunscreen on your exposed skin.

You tried to reach a spot on your back, but you were not successful.

"Jimin-ah, can you help me put it on my back?" you ask, handing him the bottle.

"Yeah, sure," he says.

You turn around, and a few seconds later, you felt his hand applying the sunscreen on your back. He slipped his hand under the band of your bra. His hand there...it felt really nice.

"Alright, it's good," Jimin says.

"Here, let me help you," you say, pulling the bottle of sunscreen from his hand.

You squeeze some of it onto your hand.

"I can-" he starts. But by that time, you already started rubbing it onto his back.

When you were done, Jimin turned around and you saw his rosy cheeks.

"What's wrong? Your cheeks are flushed," you ask teasingly. You notice that he steals a glance at your chest before quickly looking back up.

"It's because you look so sexy in that bikini," Jimin replies, not even trying to hide it.

His direct response leaves you stunned.

"Come on, let's go into the water," Jimin suggests before running off.

You jog there after him, and when you were close enough, Jimin splashed some water on you before giggling.

"Yah!" you exclaim, feeling the cool water wash over you. He laughs at your reaction, and you start splashing him as well, leaving the two of you drenched.

He laughs and sticks his tongue out at you and starts running into deeper part of the water without a lot of people. 

He then shakes his head, like a puppy, letting droplets of water fly around.

When you got close, instead of splashing you, Jimin suddenly pulls you into a hug from behind. 

You let out a sound of surprise and he only holds you tighter.

"My baby, you're so pretty," Jimin says at your ear, "I like you so much."

You turn around so that you are facing him. 

"I like you a lot too," you say, a blush rising to your cheeks.

You place your hands on his cheeks.

"Your cheeks are so round," you comment.

"Do you not like it?" he says, pouting. Oh god, that pout is going to be the end of me.

"I love it. It's cute, like a mochi." He smiles at you, making the butterflies in your stomach go wild.

He leans in and gives you small kiss on your lips.

"Jimin, there's other people here," you say.

"We're so far out no one will see," he replies.

With his arm around your waist, his lips find their spot on yours again. You bring your hand up and let your fingers tangle with his wet hair.  

As you were making out with Jimin in the water, it seemed like you were in a different world. A world with just the two of you.
