Prince in disguise ~ Jikook

[02] It takes time

"How'd it go?" Namjoon asked Jungkook as they both enjoyed the car ride with the time they had. "It was good, many fancy people were there and everyone was well dressed, I almost couldn't tell where my friends were.." A chuckle slipped out of Jungkook's mouth. "Did you find out who the Prince was?" Namjoon asked, parking his car in front of his garage and taking his key out, making the car come to an halt, hearing no engines. They both closed the doors and headed to the front door of their house, proceeding the conversation. "No.. isn't he hard to notice? It was an masquerade ball after all." Jungkook entered his and Namjoon's house.

"Well, you never know. You may have seen him in the crowd." Jungkook grabbed an water bottle and drank it before responding to Namjoon so his voice would be cleared. "I guess we'll never know." Jungkook shrugged taking another sip of his water and placing the bottle back on the table. "Goodnight Namjoon, I'm going to bed." Jungkook raised his voice so Namjoon could hear him, before closing his door after a long day, he'd finally get rest.

Jimin slipped on a blouse along with his black shorts and black loafers, to Jimin this was causal to him, Jimin didn't like to go out looking unpresentable, it just didn't fit right with him. Either way his parents wouldn't allow it either, ever since Jimin was a toddler he was dressed in nice clothes and always wore professionalized clothes, it was just how it worked in the family.

Jimin walked out of the room that he wasn't going to see for a while, As Jimin walked out he saw his parents talking with the staff that had Jimin's luggage. "Eomma, appa, is everything ready?" Jimin didn't want to interrupt but he had to ask. "Yes darling, it's ready," Jimin's mother pointed the staff to the door with Jimin's luggage. "The errands, they where for today, so you'd be ready for what may come at the other end of this world. You don't have to worry about finding an job or anything. We'll send you money every week."

"Thank you, I promise to bring back someone I am interested in." Jimin assured to his parents that smiled. "I know you will." Jimin's father hand was on his sons shoulder. "It's time to leave." Jimin's mother hugged the brunette, and his father hugged him as well.

Jimin left the castle with the staff that opened the passages door for Jimin. Jimin knew this wouldn't be the last time he'd be home but it won't be long until he does go back home, he knew for sure that it was going to be different for him, he didn't have a lot of assistance like he used to, but this was all part of the disguise, he had to take responsibility for the little things and the big things.

Jimin bowed to the staff before sitting down on the seat in the car before the staff closed the door. The car started and jimin looked out of the window to see his parents waving at him. A smile appeared on Jimin's face as the staff and Jimin himself prepared for a long trip on the road.

Jimin was sleeping softly on the seat inside the car until he felt a tap on his shoulder, it took a few mintues for Jimin to realize it was the staff, he sat up looking at the staff tiredly. "Where?" He couldn't finished his sentence from an approaching yawn, he covered his mouth from the yawn that didn't last longer then he expected before the staff spoke. "We're here, your parents already had everything set up in the apartment." The staff handed Jimin the set of keys, "ones for your apartment and the other is for your car."

"Thank you." The brunette said with a soft smile that the staff knew he wasn't allowed to look at so he gave Jimin a quick bow before exiting the car to grab his luggage. He popped the truck and started to grab his luggage, Jimin didn't want to stand there and watch the staff grab his luggage so he went to grab a bag. "Oh no Prince, you don't have to-"

"The pleasure is mines." The staff listened and gulped before nodding and grabbing another bag from the car. Jimin stepped inwardly of the apartment and the first thing he noticed was the smell. The apartment smelt like flowers and surely enough it extended through the whole apartment. This didn't smell better than the castle but it was an lovely smell he would like to smell any day he could. "My job is done here, Prince." The staff stood in place and Jimin swiveled his head to the staff with raised eyebrows that weren't meant to scare the staff. "Alright, please be safe on the trip back." He hugged the staff that couldn't hug back due to orders but Jimin didn't care for now, he wasn't going to see staff for a while.

He let go the staff at the staff bowed before taking his leave. A phone buzzed somewhere in the apartment Jimin couldn't define, he started to panic looking around in the each room until he reached his bedroom, he sighed heavily from the panic that calmed when he found his phone and saw that it was taehyung calling so he answered.

"Jimin ssi, I miss you already!" Taehyung sounded whiny and sad, making the brunette smile softly.

"Tae, I miss you too, don't make me sad okay?" Jimin pouted a little with the phone up to his ear.

"Alright.. I won't, just stay in touch with me." Taehyung enlighten the mood by changing his tone. "I will Tae."

"So what do you plan on eating? Don't they already have food in the fridge and and cooking supplies?"

"They do.. I'm just not an expert at it.. Tae you know this." Jimin furrowed his eyebrows looking annoyed while he walked out of his room to the kitchen. "Sorry! Then you should learn."

"I'm going try my best to." Jimin leaned on the counter in the kitchen, elbows facing horizontally on the marble design.

"Sounds good! Good luck with that." Jimin smiled stopping the urge of annoyance he got from Tae's silly comment. He knew Tae was being silly of course but it got annoyingly funny as well.

"Thank you."

Jimin finished cooking his meal to see that it didn't look how he imagined it may look, or taste either. So Jimin threw it out and decided just to get a snack at the nearest coffee place, many people loved the placed as it said on the reviews so jimin drove to it just to taste it, since his cooking skills weren't so great.

He entered the place to see an well organized area with comfortable seats and tables, a few paintings and large windows, dim lights that only hit a few spots around the coffee place and plants that finished the wood like colored exterior. It was a beautiful place to relax at seeing how many people where there relaxing and ordering food and drinks.

The brunette was impressed on how well something so small could look so relaxing and comfortable.

He walked up to the cashier and made an order. Once cashier took his order he was given a ticket on when his order was going to be finished and a ringing device for his order.

While he waited, he chose to take a bathroom break while he could, just for a second. He stood from his seat walking towards the restrooms he didn't mind the people that were walking by him until he felt his blouse tear, causing the other person to hear it and turn back to Jimin immediately.

"What are you-" Jimin furrowed his brows in irritation just before remembering that he needed to set an good example for himself. "Gosh, I-I'm sorry!" Jimin heard the brown haired male innocent voice that sounded frighten, as if he was in huge trouble. "It's fine, I just-" Jimin looked down at his blouse to see a tear that was almost the size of his hand, showing his exposed skin that he covered up immediately. Jimin cleared his throat to the brown haired who was focused on the teared blouse with an worried look on his face, "I'm truly sorry, I-I'll buy you a new one!"

"No, you don't have to." Jimin hissed now feeling pain on his side he moved his hand to see an scratch as large as his pointer finger.
