"So where are we going?" Jimin asks, looking over at Jungkook as he drives them through town. He feels really strange right now. Last night was really confusing and weird to him.

Jungkook all of a suddenly told Jimin that they were starting over and he called Jimin cute and then asked Jimin out on a date.

Well, it's not a date date, but it's close enough.

"When I was little, my parents would take me to this restaurant every year on my birthday for breakfast. That's where we're going." Jungkook says.

"Do you even know how to get there?" Jimin sighs.

"Of course I do. It should be right around this corner." Jungkook turns down another street before making a surprised noise. "What? Where is it?"

"You're not talking about Pierre's or whatever the hell it was called, are you?"

"Yeah, I am, actually. Why? Do you know it?" Jungkook asks, pulling into the parking lot.

"Yeah, that place got shut down like two years ago. There was some kind of drug ring in the basement or something like that." Jimin shrugs.

Jungkook is silent for a moment. "You know what, that actually explains a lot."

Jimin snorts. "I don't even want to know."

"Well, since that place is out of the question, what should we do now?"

"Donuts." Jimin says simply.

"Donuts?"

"Donuts. There's a drive-thru." Jimin starts. "Dunkin Donuts."

"Where is it?" Jungkook asks, pulling back onto the street. "Next street over. Lets get a dozen."

"Alright." Jungkook nods. He soon finds their destination.

"Hi, welcome to Dunkin Donuts. What can I get for you?" The person on the other side of the speaker says.

"Tae!" Jimin yells from the passenger seat.

"Jimin?" Tae asks.

"Hi. Can we have the usual?" Jimin asks.

"We? Uh, sure. But who're you with? Hobi?" Tae asks.

"You'll see. Just give us the total." Jimin says.

"Okay... 9.99." Tae says. Jungkook quickly pulls up the car to the window, card already ready to pay.

"Hi, Tae." Jungkook smiles at his fan. Tae's eyes light up a little, but then the excitement goes away.

"Hi, Jungkook. I see you two are all buddy-buddy now." Tae says as he swipes Jungkook's card.

"Yeah, well, I felt bad about meeting badly so we're going to hang out like civilized people today." Jungkook explains, shrugging.

Tae only nods. "Are you still mad at me?" Jimin asks suddenly, a troubled expression on his face. He doesn't want his best friend to hate him.

"I'm still a little upset, yeah. But I'll get over it." Tae shrugs.

"Don't be like that. Jungkook will hang it with you one-on-one tomorrow." Jimin promises.

"I will?" Jungkook asks, surprised.

"Won't you?" Jimin looks at him pointedly.

"I mean, I guess I don't see why not. You can show me all your posters and stuff." Jungkook shrugs, sending a smile Tae's way. That seems to work, because his eyes light up all the way this time, and he grins widely.

"Okay cool, because I've had your phone number for a little while now, but I didn't know when I should text you. I'll text you my address later tonight so you can come over bright and early tomorrow morning."
