The heart beats fast when you meet the person you really love.

It was lunch break when Jimin made his way to the music department, holding the usual tumbler containing his very own home-made tangerine juice.

"Is this necessary?" Tar ask as they walk down the hallway to the men's locker room.

"Just stay there; I will be quick!" He said this and roamed around his eyes, looking for a sign of the man to whom he'd been sending tangerine juice.

"You know what? I don't know what's with you. But we didn't even see that he drank that thing at least once?" Tae crosses his arms over his chest.

"That man is as hard as a rock, believe me, Chim." He clarified as if Jimin was paying attention to him.

He was busy looking around and waiting for a particular man from the music department. This has been his routine for almost a month now.

"Yah, are you listening?" Tae asked but didn't have a chance to get an answer as the bell rang and the corridor filled with students.

"They're coming!" Jimin excitedly holds on to his best friend's arm and pulls him closer to him. "Stay here; help me find him!" Tae sighed and rolled his eyes. His best friend is blindly in love with an iceman.

They always stay here near the men's locker room because Jimin knows that after morning class, Yoongi and his friends will come here to change clothes for basketball.

After what feels like an eternity, they finally hear the group approaching. Jimin stood up straight while Tae lazily stood there, uninterested.

"You know, Hyung, sharing is caring! Just let us have a taste!" It was Jungkook talking about something, followed by Hobi's laughter.

"F*ck off." Yoongi, in his deep voice. It sent a shiver down Jimin's spine. He really loves everything about that man.

"Stop teasing. You'll get a good punch, d*ckhead." Namjoon said before they got visible to Jimin. His eyes landed on Yoongi, who was already staring at him. He blushed.

God, he looks so fine with his usual black outfit: a black FG shirt and black cap, one hand tucked inside the pocket of his black pants, and the other holding the strap of his duffle bag. Jimin mentally salivates at the sight.

-Yes, my daddy.

"Speaking of which, here are the cuties from contemporary art class." Jungkook beamed and waved at Jimin and Tae. He received a cute, shy smile from Jimin and a judgmental look from Tae.

"Stop the crap. I'm not cute." Tae spat and rolled his eyes. Jimin secretly elbowed him.

"Shh, stop being sassy". He said this and smiled at Jungkook, who was standing in front of them. His eyes swiftly turned to Yoongi, who was still staring at him with his forehead creased.

"Why are you always grumpy?" Jungkook uttered and he won't stop teasing his best friend.

"Because you keep calling me a cutie?"

"Aren't you cute?"

"Nu-uh, Jiminie is a cutie. I'm gorgeous, duh?" Jimin almost choked on his own spit. Sometimes, he hates this side of his friend.

"Slay!" Hobi said it with a heart-shaped smile.

"Ooh, I like that." -Jungkook teased.

"Kook, stop teasing." Yoongi cut him off. There was a content smirk on Jungkook's face when he went back to his friends.

Jimin feels awkward now that everyone is silently watching him. It's as if they're expecting him to do his usual routine.

"Give it so we can leave already. I'm so hungry." Jimin blushed and lowered his gaze as he lifted the tumbler in front of Yoongi.

His friends and other students got curious too. "I-I... didn't add sugar this time." He said. He heard from Namjoon last time that Yoongi's not a fan of sweet stuff, so he considered not adding sugar to his drink.

When Yoongi took the tumbler and opened the lid to take a sip, Jimin's mouth parted in surprise. Because finally, for the first time, he saw him drink his home-made tangerine juice.

"H-How is it... Hyung?" Jimin nervously asked. Everyone's waiting for Yoongi's answer too, as if he's a judge on a cooking show.

Yoongi stared at the bottle. He shrugged and took a big sip before walking to the locker room.

"I think he likes it." Namjoon said with a smile, his cute dimple was on display. Jungkook winked at Tae, who glared in return.

"Keep it up! Jiminie. See you around!" Hobi beamed and tapped his shoulder. Jimin blushed.

"Hyung, let me have a taste!"

"Yah, jungkook-aa!" Hobi laughs. The group went inside the locker room and vanished from his sight. Jimin feels light headed, he looks so happy.

"What. was. that?" Tae asked in surprise.

Jimin giggled and clung to his friend. "Let's take our lunch. My treat!" He said and pulled him.

One thing is for sure, Yoongi likes his gift.
