CHAPTER 7

💿 Mad at You - Why Don't We

×

Once he stepped out of the building he felt a gush of wind hitting his body and instantly felt himself relaxing. It was quite cold hence why he regretted not bringing his jacket but he still sat down on a bench anyway.

He turned on his phone to look at the time and was surprised to see that it was half past one in the morning. He sighed and slumped down on the bench, feeling mentally and physically exhausted. Maybe he's just overreacting. That might be it, Jimin thought. Even Yoongi had fun. This thought made him slump down even more.

Jimin had sat there for twenty minutes, tried to calm down a bit, when he decided that it was time for him to go back into the youth center. He stood up and trudged back to the entrance.
Jimin pulled on the doorknob.
But the door didnt open.
Of course, the next logical thing to do was pushing it so he tried.
But the door didn't budge at all.

Did he just lock himself out? A loud groan left his mouth as he crouched down in exasperation, pulling at his hair. How did he always end up in situations like this? Out of sole desperation, he tried to push and pull on the door again and again but it just did not open.

Since Jimin didn't have any other choice, he went back to the bench and sat down before scrolling through his contacts. The blonde thought about calling Taehyung but the younger didn't have a driver's license as well which meant that Tae couldn't really help him. Soon after, Jimin's finger landed on one contact. A person he despised. But did he have a choice other than calling him? Well, he could stay outside for the next seven hours or so until someone opens the door but Jimin was starting to freeze. So eventually, he dialed the number, while simultaneously going through his hair with one hand.

"Jimin? Why the fuck are you calling me at this hour? Did the baby forget his dummy?" Jeongguk said with a husky voice on the other side of the line. Jimin huffed out in annoyance. He instantly regretted calling him.

In the meantime, Jeongguk had stood up from his bed. What the smaller didn't know was that he had been sleeping peacefully until a few seconds ago, then his sleep was interrupted by his phone ringing loudly beside his head.
Jimin answered in a distressed voice,
"Can you stop with your teasing for once? Look, I locked myself out and I'm freezing out here"

"And what exactly does this have to do with me?" Jeongguk asked cautiously, already knowing where this was going.
At first, Jimin hesitated but asked anyway.
"Could you please pick me up?"

His whiny voice brought a smirk to Jeongguk's face. Since he didn't answer immediately, the boy got desperate and continued to talk,
"Pretty please, Jeongguk. I can buy you pork belly if you want or whatever, I don't know. Oh gosh, I sound so desperate right now-
well I actually am"

"Hm, I wouldn't say no to pork belly. No one would say no to pork belly," Jeongguk answered teasingly. He would've picked him up anyway but if he got something out of it, he wouldn't complain. Therefore, he grabbed his car keys and went downstairs while putting his mouth close to the speaker, adding quietly, "I'll be there in a minute. Just wait for me"

Thereby, the taller ended the conversation as he fetched a jacket and put his phone into his pocket. Jeongguk didnt think twice about putting on the jacket before he went outside to his car. Finally he sat in the driver's seat and started the engine.

When he arrived at the youth center, he could see Jimin running to the car in tiny, hugging his own body while doing so.

"It's so cold, I feel like my limbs are gonna fall off my body any second," Jimin said as he opened the car door and sat down on the passenger seat. Jeongguk chuckled lowly before he said,
"If you're lucky, you're gonna find a hoodie on the backseat"

Jimin didn't waste one second and moved a bit so he could look if there's a hoodie.
In fact, there actually was a hoodie laying on one of the backseats so he grabbed it to pull it on. Only when he felt the warmth of the soft fabric on his skin, he relaxed into the car seat.

"So, where to go now?" Jeongguk asked hesitantly while looking at Jimin. While the smaller fastened his seatbelt, he murmured, "Home"

"Do you even have your keys with you?" the brunette asked. He was certainly sure that Jimin didn't have them with him but he just wanted to be sure they understood the same thing when he said 'home'. Jimin shook his head, already half asleep. That kid Jiwon really was a pain in the ass.

However, Jeongguk just sighed and started to drive. He was quite sure that Jimin has been sleeping since five minutes after hitting the road so he turned on the radio and lowly sang along to some rnb music. He would've preferred to be sleeping instead of picking someone up but in the end, he liked the night more anyway. It was surprising that he had slept in this early as well. Jeongguk had been playing some games when he had started to feel tiredness washing over him.

Soon the car stopped in front of the taller's house so he decided to shake Jimin's shoulder, waking up the older, and got out of the car. Jimin followed him all the way to his house and waited for him to open the door, almost sleeping while just standing there.

"Wow you must be really tired,"
Jeongguk said, however his statement had no bite to it. He was too exhausted to be fighting right now.
"Well yeah, children are horrible. One of them literally talked in his sleep. I haven't slept at all," Jimin mumbled as he hid his hands in the sleeves of the huge hoodie. He just couldn't handle them. As soon as Jeongguk had opened the door, Jimin hurried inside and walked straight to the couch. Before he could lay down though, Jimin heard the younger say, "You can sleep in my bed if you want to. I mean you are a pro at it already"
In addition Jeongguk rolled his eyes as he thought about the way Jimin had kicked him off his own bed a few days ago. Jimin just stood there startled and said, "You know, I don't mind taking the couch"

"My mum would kill me if she found out about it," Jeongguk meant as he made his way to the couch and slumped down.
"She's not supposed to find out. Nobody's supposed to find out. They are supposed to think I'm at that youth center sleep over party right now," Jimin spoke while scratching his arm nervously.

"Ugh, just take the bed already. Sleep for a bit before I have to drop you off again just to pick you up two hours after that," Jeongguk said, clearly annoyed about the last part. Jimin stopped scratching his arm and made his way upstairs to enter Jeongguk's room. The bed was a bit messy, considering that Jeongguk had hurried to pick Jimin up after being interrupted in his sleep. One bedside lamp was turned on but the blonde didn't bother to turn it off as he flopped down on the bed and covered himself with Jeongguk's blanket.
The taller boy was supposed to smell bad, just like cigarettes and smoke.

But Jeongguk's hoodie and the cushion his head was laying on didn't smell bad at all. It was more like the opposite.

And it bothered him.
