Prince in disguise ~ Jikook

[07] Adjustments

Taehyung heard his parents chatting outside of his room to a women who stood respectfully in front of them listening to their every word. He got out of bed thinking about what they where conversating about and why they where chatting. He began to step lightly on the wooden floor with his animal slippers to hear their conversation better.

Yes Taehyung was noisy but that was only when his parents spoke about something secretive, he could just tell.

He opened the door which made an high pitch creek, Taehyung winced from the noise thinking he'd be screwed until he opened his eyes and his parents where still talking to the women. He listened to their conversation and heard that his parents and the women where trying to make an affair with her to try to get with Jimin. Taehyung breathed heavily before he stepped out of his room slamming the door open.

His parents turned their heads in fury until they saw Taehyung. "You can't do that to Jimin!" Taehyung yelled at his parents who's eyes where widen in fury.
"This is not your decision Taehyung." His mother said.

"You sent him to the real world to find love! Not to be manipulated to love someone you bring!" Taehyung complained to his parents. "Taehyung, that is not how to speak to the ones who made you!" His mother said sourly to the male who crossed his arms angrily. "And that's not how to treat one who was born! He sent you both a letter days ago!" Taehyung shouted, anger at his parents and their actions on what they where going to do with Jimin. He didn't want Jimin to go through forced love and that's not what Jimin wants either. Taehyung was furious and so as his parents, he knew what his parents where doing was bad but he couldn't tell Jimin. He was having so much fun in the real world and if he tried telling Jimin he'd get caught and he'd be punished.

"Taehyung do not speak in such a way!" His mother demanded and Taehyung took his final glare at the women and his parents before rushing away into his bedroom. He couldn't handle his parents anymore and what they are doing, he couldn't believe it either, it felt so wrong. "Stay with him. Make sure he doesn't notify Jimin."

Jungkook was drinking some boba as he looked at them move up the thick straw feeling the balls pop in his mouth as he chewed them. As he drank he looked up to Namjoon who kept a smirk on his face, now Jungkook was getting curious. "Ya, Joonie, what is it?" Asked Jungkook who held the drink hovering it from the table and circling his wrist to move the boba in the cup. "I saw how you looked at Jimin." Namjoon said as his lips curled onto a bigger smile that started to show his dimples.

"What do you mean?" Jungkook furrowed his brows and scrunched, lips showing a slight frown but he was serious.

"You admire him you see something in him, something that you haven't felt before in a man." Namjoon cooed in a low tone so only Jungkook could hear him. Jungkook listened closely to the blonde and blinked. "What do you see in Jimin?" Namjoon leaned closer to the brown haired, resting his elbows on the table palming his own face. "I.. I don't know.. but I feel my heart begin to speed up and my cheeks redden." Jungkook's eyes met his fingers shyly, he began to feel heat spring in his body just talking about him.

"You both should go on a friendly date. You know? Since Jimin is still new around here you should take him.. skating." Jungkook's eyes where still furrowed but he listened to Namjoon taking small sips on his boba. "Today? What if he's busy?" Jungkook wondered making Namjoon scowl a bit. "Jungkook-ssi. That's why you ask. Be confident in yourself." Namjoon gulped some boba. "Okay. I will." Jungkook stated still a bit nervous about it. He wanted to spend more time with Jimin to see if what he felt was real and it wasn't just a dream, but he gets nervous are his heart thumps loudly just looking at the brunette.

He'd question himself about the male he met a couple of days ago after feeling what seemed like rapid thumps in his heart and heat rise in his body just by the sight of the older. He felt that he could've been falling for the male but he didn't know if he was just desperate or if it was real. And he wanted to find out.

Jimin huffed hoping the gift he got for Taehyung would arrive really soon, he wanted to hear Tae's enthusiastic voice of when he called him telling Jimin that he had the gift. He couldn't wait but smile from the thought. Yes he thought about his brother a lot and he liked to, gosh he'd do anything to protect his brother that he deeply cared about, he was family.

Jimin was gazing outside for a while, feeling the nice sun hit his skin after being in the cold apartment. Something he dreamt of doing all his life, though it would be nice to have some company. Jimin felt the vibration in his pants before he grabbed the device.

A smile curved onto his lips unknowingly once he read the message. He replied back with an brief text message and left the balcony to go change into proper clothes. He went ahead and did research before he left to drive to the place. Today he was going to make a memory he wouldn't forget.

"Just hold my hand, it'll be okay." Jimin was told by the taller, it looked fun to him but it was tuff because he was on roller skates. Jimin gulped in fear of falling on the wooden but smooth floor because it would embarrass him. He held onto Jungkook's hand tightly trying to find equilibrium on the skates as he kept his eyes on the floor watching himself move really slow on the floor.

Jungkook smiled at the Jimin who struggled to skate but by guiding him on how to skate he was slowly learning step by step. Jungkook moved swiftly in front of the smaller and held his other hand that gripped on the wall desperately. "J-Jungkook." Jimin's tried to voice out trying to steady his balance once more now that Jungkook was holding both of his hands. "Just follow my lead Jimin, don't worry." Jungkook assured to the brunette who nodded quickly keeping his eyes on the floor.

Jungkook skated backwards slowly leading Jimin to skate forwards, he was learning as he focused hard onto his feet and the floor. Jungkook sniggered watching the brunette. "Jimin look at me." Jungkook asked, the smaller male stammered a bit while trying to conversate with the taller male.

"J-Jungkook what if I-" Jimin completely lost equilibrium of his body but just before he could fall Jungkook grabbed his arm and the ledge of the wall for support, Jungkook had great composure saving himself from falling due to the breaks given to him on the skates. "fall?" Jungkook raised his brows. Jimin breathed heavily from the save of embarrassment, his breathing shuddered as his hand griped onto the wooden floor to push himself up.

He did successfully but lost balance again and gripped onto Jungkook's T-shirt in a yelp. Jungkook quickly wrapped his arms around Jimin's waist. Blush began to rise on the taller's cheeks and his heart began to race, he felt heat rise from his feet to his head, how close Jimin was to him and his hands wrapping around the brunette felt unreal.

Jimin's rosy cheeks turned red from the hold he was receiving but he couldn't stay for long, he didn't want it to get more awkward so he quickly got up loosing his grip from Jungkook's shirt and held his hands. "M-my apologies." Jimin said stuttering a bit for the first time in a while, he couldn't believe himself but he didn't stop himself. Jimin felt his heart palpitate slowly looking at the ground and Jungkook at the same time. "Don't be, everyone falls at least once." Jungkook stated knowing that the brunette may feel embarrassed.

Jimin listened to Jungkook and it was true everyone has, it just takes some practice and then you wouldn't have to fall so frequently. But the feelings he felt by the second catch was something he couldn't explain until he's fully processed it. Yes Jimin was still taking scrutiny of Jungkook and others but it was something about the brown haired that he couldn't get his mind on.
