Falling in Love at a Coffee Shop || Jikook [COMPLETE]

Chapter 5

Jimin watched Jungkook walk out of rkive with what he knew was a worried look on his face.

"Jungkook all right?" Namjoon asked when Jimin came to a stop behind the counter next to him.

"Yeah, I mean, I guess," Jimin sighed, grabbing the stack of dessert boxes he'd been about to assemble for customers who wanted their pastries to go, right before he'd heard Jungkook curse from his table.

"You guess?" Namjoon stopped and looked at Jimin with a cocked eyebrow.

"Yeah, weird. I mean, Kook has always been very calm and collected, but lately, over the past month, he's just been." Jimin tried to think of the right word. "Annoyed?"

"I'm starting to wonder if Jungkook is the only oblivious person in this place," Yoongi mumbled under his breath, shaking his head in disbelief.

"I'm sure it's nothing and will pass," Jimin stated. "All of us have been under a lot of stress since midterms started. Thank God those will be over next week so we can all finally breathe."

"Are all four of you juniors?" Yoongi asked as Namjoon refilled his cup, knowing that Jimin was.

"No, Taehyung and I are in our third year. Hobi is a senior, and Kook is a sophomore."

"So Jungkook is the youngest out of all of you."

"Yeah, he's younger by a couple of years. Well, a few for Hobi. Both Tae and I are the same age, 23."

"How is it that Jungkook is already a sophomore?"

Jimin smiled proudly. "Because he's brilliant."

Yoongi looked at Namjoon, who gave a nod of agreement.

"He also picks things up quickly, often after being shown just once," Namjoon added.

"So, basically a younger you," Yoongi chuckled, which made his old friend chuckle too.

"Yeah, except way less destructive. Unlike our God of Destruction over here." Jimin giggled, bumping Namjoon with his hip.

Yoongi grinned, because for one thing, that was about as accurate a description of Namjoon as he'd ever heard, and for another, he just loved Jimin's laugh in any form it came in.

"Everyone has their faults," Namjoon spoke confidently, having long ago accepted that he was, on occasion, a walking disaster.

"What is Jungkook's?" Yoongi asked. "His fault."

"He has a tendency to start things and not finish them," Jimin answered.

"He gets bored easily, then?" Yoongi asked for clarification.

Jimin shook his head. "No. I wouldn't say it's boredom, more like he wants to learn everything, and because of that he never sticks with one particular thing long enough to actually master it. If that makes sense?"

"It does." Yoongi nodded thoughtfully. "What about you, Jimin? What is your fault?"

Jimin stopped in his task of relocating a stack of completed boxes under the counter and immediately thought of Jungkook. The fact that he loved Jungkook to a fault, even though it caused him daily hurt. He wasn't going to say that though. He didn't really know Yoongi well enough to divulge something like that. Yoongi was nice enough and good company, but they weren't friends. Jimin finished tucking the boxes away and came up with a grin.

"Me? I'm flawless. Remember?"

Yoongi let out a shoulder-shaking laugh. He wasn't wrong. Yoongi had told him he was flawless just last week. Granted, he was talking about his coffee-making skills at the time, but who was he to argue with his own statement, regardless of how Jimin had interpreted it.
