Erroneous [Vminkook]

77: Snow Games

Today is the first day that it snowed in South Korea.

The air is not exactly freezing to the point one would suffer from a severe hypothermia, but it's crisp enough to have the beautiful flakes of snow flutter down the sky and leave their traces behind.

Usually on days like this, Taehyung has memories of going outside to play with his father as a kid; remembering him throwing in the snow or making snow angels. Many times with Seokjin as well, but after a while the elder cousin began to dislike the snow.

For his own personal reasons.

At the moment Taehyung is in his library; specks on his face, burying his nose in a book in utter fascination. He initially got lost in telling the story out loud to Karma, who usually likes it when Taehyung reads him to sleep. Now his alter taking a nap, so Taehyung can get a peace of mind as he continues to read.

Even if deep down inside he's starting to miss Karma's silly remarks by certain scenes that would come up.

He was too deep in the world of the story that he didn't notice Jimin standing by the door of the library, watching him with curious eyes as if he's studying him. The blonde just came from going out for a walk, enjoying the nice winter air against his skin with not a strand of worry lacing his body.

Initially he was going to go to Lucas so they can continue on with their lesson. Since Jimin has been staying here, he has been spending majority of his time with Lucas, leaning how to attend certain wounds and about the human anatomy. He could say he's a certified medic now but.... That's far from the truth.

Now, seeing Taehyung sitting there, calmly, with a cute loose grey knitted sweater hanging over his body and sweatpants, he can clearly see the difference between him and Karma's fashion sense.

And hair taste.

His once hot pink hair is now black, in ruffled waves on his head. Jimin over heard him mention to Seokjin how he wants to grow it out a little more. Karma hates the idea, but whatever makes Taehyung happy he doesn't really care.

The bond they have together is something.... That Jimin finds really.... Fascinating.

A bond him and Jimin could possibly, most likely, will never have.

Jimin and Taehyung don't typically talk to each other, ever. Sometimes when they're down stairs in the dining area to have breakfast or dinner, Jimin would catch him staring at him a few times but then instantly switch to Karma to discuss a few things with them on just basically anything.

Jungkook is going to go back to work soon, so they usually discuss how things are going to go down, but Jungkook is still living here since he still has no where to go. He agreed, but said he's moving out once he finds a place to stay, in which Karma reluctantly agreed to.

Now.... Jimin wants to take the opportunity to perhaps talk to him.

He seems harmless enough.... Right?

So Jimin runs a hand through his dirty blonde hair and enters the room quietly. The other male was too engraved in his book to notice the smug boy creeping up behind him, not even when he was breathing against his neck beside his head.

"What are you reading?"

Taehyung practically flies off the chair and shoots to his feet, the book covering the lower region of his face in shock. Instantly relief flushed his face but then goes back to being completely embarrassed, "J-Jimin! You s-startled me."

Shit even me too from my sleep this little-

"I'm sorry," Jimin chuckles, stuffying his hands inside his pocket, glancing at the book, "So... What are you reading?"
