Stage Romance // JIKOOK

2 : Fainting on the way

"Where the hell were you? I have been searching for you almost everywhere here." said the Manager once he got hold of a panting Jimin.
.

"Sorry hyung. My earpiece wasn't working. I went to get one." said Jimin running to get into his position.

"Yahh!" Before the Manager could give him an earful he escaped.

"He is lucky, that Stray Kids took further time on their stage." mumbled the Manger going to do his work behind.
.

"Your cars have parked outside. Wear some thick Jackets, it's very cold outside. " informed the Manager taking the necessary bags with him as he led the members out.
.

"Come on fellas, let's go. I wanna go home and have some seasoned chicken," exclaimed Bam Bam moaning as he pictured the salivating food.

"Me too...I will order it," said Chanyeol as fished out for his phone as they walked out.

"Anyone else? What eats do others prefer ?" asked Chanyeol as proceeded with his ordering.

"Just order today's dinner hyung. I don't think any of us will cook something tonight," said Jungkook as he zipped his hoodie.
.

.
.

The members all left in their respective cars or alone shortly, but the last car was still on the freeway waiting for Jungkook and Yugyeom who still hasn't appeared in the lobby.

.

"Will you stroll fast? Why are you dragging yourself like this?" asked Yugyeom perplexed why Jungkook is walking so slowly.

"Let's walk slowly...I am so wearied," said Jungkook pouting and blinking his eyes trying to coax Yugyeom into his cuteness.

Yugyeom just blinked his eyes at this surprising act not comprehending what to reply.

Did the great Jungkook just try to do an aegyo?

"Hey, are you alright? Did you stumble somewhere else?" asked Yugyeom stopping in his tracks and scanning Jungkook tilting his face both left and right.

"Yahh! What are yo- "

.
.
.

"Sunbae." a voice called out halting both their move.
.

"Yes, dear?" answered Yugyeom playfully as he gave attention to Jimin who was almost out of breath fleeing here.

"Thank you for the earpiece and sorry for the trouble," said Jimin politely giving it back.

Jungkook just gazed at Jimin standing still as he exchanged conversation with Yugyeom. Discerning his moves.

"Ah! No worries. By the way, you were really good on stage." complimented Yugyeom accepting the earpiece instead of Jungkook, who was posing like a sculpture there.

"Thank you Sunbaenim," said Jimin gleaming lightly as he bowed to them.
.

"Okay, then see you later kiddo," said Yugyeom waving his hand as he strode outside.

.
.
.

The frigid wind was very strong as they both stood alone in that expanse facing each other.

"Hyung," called Jimin softly, not knowing why Jungkook was standing there, not going.
.

Jungkook moved forth, closer to Jimin, standing tall in front of him. He stroked Jimin's cold face with his warm hand, and the smaller one closed his eyes unknowingly at the fondness.

Jungkook backed away, pulled out his black jacket and wrapped Jimin in it, assisting him to wear it suitably.

It was cute how Jungkook's big Jacket engulfed the whole Jimin in it.

"It's getting extremely cold outside. Wear warm clothes. Hm?" advised Jungkook taking Jimin's face in his hands to which the smaller nodded.

"Take care. I'll be leaving then, Good Night," said Jungkook slowly departing Jimin behind, vanishing outside.

.
.
.

"Good Night," replied Jimin dreamily once Jungkook left. He was barely standing there. He was feeling very apprehensive and exhausted and this cold season isn't comforting him any bit either.

.

But before he could stride back a few steps, his eyes became blurry, and his knees gave up, ensuing in him slumping on the cold ground with a thud.
.
.

.

"Jimin? Jiminah?" yelled Jackson seeing this petite figure on the floor unconscious.

"Oh my God! Jiminah, What happened? Get up please?" requested Jackson taking the boy in his arms and shaking him for any sort of response.

.

Jackson fished out for his phone and dialled a number he found on the recent call list.

"Hel-"

"Can you please come to the lobby, Jimin fainted," said Jackson cutting off the receiver and getting straight to the point.
.

He took the boy in bridal style and moved out for their car while observing him close.

What was Jimin doing here alone? Was the doubt wandering around his head.

For today's show also, Jimin went missing as he heard from the Manager and now what was this boy doing here alone?
.
.
.
.
.

"Hyung! The car is here," spoke Seongwu shaking Jackson, who zoned out with Jimin in his arms.

Seongwu came running after Jackson called him.

"You both get inside, I will come with Eunwoo and Ki-young hyung in the following one," said Seongwu helping Jacskon to tuck Jimin and himself inside. And soon they took off.
