"Cheers to getting Y/N out of bed" Jin exclaimed while holding up his drink at the dinner table. I rolled my eyes, but couldn't help smile at him before putting my drink up as well.

My parents and Jimin joined in, and everything just felt good for the first time all week. "So, honey, how is dance? Exited about the big dance show coming up?" My dad asked. My mom quickly widened her eyes, and I could see slight panic in both Jin and Jimin's face.

I gasped at the though, and put my hands over my face. My dad finally noticed all the looks he was getting, frowning before he realised. "Oh shit." He said putting down his fork.

"Oh my god i completely forgot!" I said, sliding further down my chair. "Are you okay with it?" My mom asked concerned. After a few seconds of thinking, I sighed and sat up straight.

"I mean I have to. And it's not like we hate each other...it's just gonna be a little uncomfortable. But I'm getting over it, and maybe this will help me accept our friendship" I mumbled. Everyone's eyes looked sad and concerned.

"Okay that's enough now, I'm okay" I smiled. All of us continued eating, before i suddenly felt a hand on mine underneath the table. It wasn't firm, it was more of a gentle stroke, before it pulled away again. I looked at Jimin, who gave me a smile.

"Now to the most important question of all, HOW much did you miss ME?" Jin questioned my parents with a grin. They laughed, before my mom stroked his cheek. "Way too much Jin" she answered, and my dad nodded in agreement.

I smiled at them, and in the corner of my eye I could see Jimin smiling too. My smile quickly faded, as I realised this must be so hard for him. I cleared my throat. "Hey you guys still don't mind Jimin staying here right? I was thinking we could make up the guest room for him" I said.

Jimins eyes widened, looking over at me, before quickly looking down at his plate. My parents looked at each other. It was a look of both concern and compassion. "Of course we don't mind. You're still  welcome to stay Jimin, however long you need" my dad nodded.

My mom joined in. "I see both of you as one of my own" se started, looking at Jin and Jimin. "So of course. Anytime you need anything our door is always open"

I smiled, and I could see Jimins eyes lighten up as well. "Thank you, really" he said. My mom nodded at him with a wide grin, and my dad cleared his throat.

"So who wants some good news?" He asked. "I DO" Jin yelled. He chuckled before continuing. "Me and your mom Y/N, we have to go back to work in 3 weeks" he started. I felt my smile fade. "But, to make up for it, what do you three say to a vacation?"

I gasped. "Where?? How long?? When??" I exclaimed. "We leave in 4 days, and we're going to the Maldives for 2 weeks!" My dad stated. Me and Jin looked at each other with our jaws basically to the floor, before we high fived.

"YES. God I missed our family vacations" Jin said. "I talked to your mom Jin, and she is coming as well. Your dad had to work unfortunately but Namjoon is taking his ticket" My mom added. I clapped my hands together with so much excitement. Jin almost screamed from hearing the news.

"And obviously, Jimin we got you a ticket as well" my dad said to Jimin. His eyes widened before he spoke. "No no I don't want to ruin a family vacation or anything" he softly spoke.

"Cmon, you have no idea how fun our vacations are. I'm insisting, you don't have a choice" I said to him. He looked hesitant for a second, but when he met my eyes he couldn't help but smile. "Fine, if it's 100% okay with you" he said to my parents.

"Couldn't be more sure honey. But you do have to share a room with Y/N" she mumbled.

"What" both me, Jimin and Jin said at the same time. My parents looked at all of us, confused. "Uh yeah, it just had to be this way. We have a room of course, Jin's mother has her own, of course Jin and Namjoon you get to share, but unfortunately the hotel only could give us one more room so..." my dad said.

It was an awkward silence. "But, it is the biggest room and of course it has two beds...think of it as a sleep over.." my mom said, trying to ease the situation. Jin cleared his throat "awkward" he mumbled and looked away.

I sighed. "You know what it's okay, as long as I get the best bed" I warned Jimin. He chuckled before nodding. "But I still have to get through that stupid dance show first" I sighed.

"It's gonna go so well sweetie, I know it" my mom smiled, as she started to take the plates to the kitchen. "Yeah until she realises she has to text Jungkook to rehearse" Jin laughed.

"Fuck." I let out. My dad glared at me "Language."

"Oh please you curse all the time" I scoffed. I sighed and took a deep breath. "You know what? I'll just text him right now." I said, wanting to prove that I was okay. I took up my phone and went to our messages.

I felt my eyes water seeing our previous texts, but I quickly dismissed it and started to type.

TEXT MESSAGE TO JEON JUNGKOOK

Me:Hey. Show is in three days, we should probably rehearse.

JK: For sure! Tonight at 6 and then everyday at 4?

Me:  Great see ya

I looked at the time before almost slamming my phone down at the table. "I have to meet him in an hour."

"Aaand you're okay with it?" Jimin asked. "Yeah totally" i tried to smile.

"Yeah right" Jin scoffed before getting up. "Good luck with that, see you guys" he said before leaving.

I shook my head. "I'm gonna go get ready. Thanks for dinner mom" I yelled at her in the kitchen.

After putting on my dance clothes I ended up just laying on my bed staring at the ceiling. The door opened, and then closed. Jimin came into view, before he laid down next to me. "You sure you're okay? You don't have to lie" he asked. I sighed, turning my head towards him.

"It will be okay. I'm not exactly looking forward to it but, like I said it's not like we hate each other" I stated. Jimin gave me a compassionate smile. "I can drive you if you want"

I smiled. "That would be nice" I said softly, just staring into his eyes. We ended up staring at each other for a few seconds, and I felt him stroke my hand again. "You know I'm here for you right?" He asked.

"I know that, and I'm here for you" I answered, intertwining our hands together. He looked down at them, "I know that too"

This moment was just peaceful. Staring into his eyes, feeling the care we both have for each other. I checked the time, before looking back at him. "We should probably go"

He nodded, before getting up and dragging me after. Before he could take a step or even look away, I hugged him. He was surprised at first, but quickly grabbed around me firmly. "Thank you. For...everything" I whispered. I felt him hug tighter at my words.

He pulled away. "I'm the one that should say thank you, for everything you and your family has done for me" he answered. "That's what I'm here for" I smiled, before starting to walk to the door. "Ready?" He asked as he followed.

"As ready as I can get" I said, before we walked out and to the car.
