Me, Myself, and Jikook (Jikook Oneshots)

Crush

Jimin

"I can't believe you still have a crush on that Jungkook guy," Taehyung groaned as Jimin squealed over Jungkook's latest music video.

"Shut up, Tae.  He's amazing!  How could I not be crushing on him?" Jimin slapped Taehyung's arm half-heartedly as his eyes remained glued to his phone screen.

Singer Jeon Jungkook had just released his newest single, My Time, and it was all Jimin could think about.  He'd had a crush on the other singer for years now, but had yet to have a chance to meet him.  Jimin had nearly had a stroke once when Taehyung had told him he'd met him at an awards ceremony where Tae had been nominated for best leading actor.  However, Jimin nearly throttled him when he'd said he'd told the man that he had a friend who was obsessed with him.

"You could just...request a meeting with him, ya know.  You're famous, too.  It wouldn't be so crazy to just...ask him out," Taehyung suggested.

Jimin shook his head, "No, Tae.  That's too weird.  I can't do that!  Maybe one day we'll meet.  And when we do, maybe he'll like me as much as I like him."

Jungkook

"Jungkook!  I have a surprise for you!" Hoseok shouted in a sing-song voice as he shimmied up to his best friend.  "Look!  The one and only Park Jimin released his new album!"

"Finally!" Jungkook's head snapped to Hoseok's phone as he snatched it away.  "I've been waiting months for this to finally come out!"

Hoseok laughed as Jungkook nearly drooled on his phone watching Filter, the new song by Park Jimin.  The red suit was driving him to a new level of crazy.  Jungkook had had a massive crush on the smaller, older singer since he'd first discovered him four years prior.  He'd been part of the reason Jungkook had become a musician himself and had been not only a crush, but an inspiration as well.  Jimin's message to his fans had always been encouraging and supportive of them following their dreams, so Jungkook had listened and followed his straight into the limelight.

Now, if only he could follow that same advice to his dream man.

Awards Ceremony (Still Jungkook)

Jungkook watched in awe as the man of his dreams took graceful steps down the red carpet in his silky purple suit.  He was ecstatic that they'd finally crossed paths after all these years.  Their albums had come out around the same time and had both soared to the top of the charts.  Now they were both nominated in different categories for several awards.  But the awards didn't matter to Jungkook tonight.  Tonight, all he cared about was seizing this rare opportunity.

He was going to ask Park Jimin on a date.

The reporter who had been attempting to interview him as he watched Jimin's red carpet entrance seemed to give up her questioning and move on to the next person.  That was fine with Jungkook.  He had no interest in anything that wasn't draped and cinched in purple tonight.

Awards Ceremony (Jimin)

"Oh my god, oh my god, oh my god, Taehyung!  He's here!  He's at the awards show right now!  I could meet him!  I have to meet him!" Jimin repeatedly punched Taehyung's arm in excitement.

"Ow!" Taehyung slapped Jimin's hands away.  "So go meet him!  No one's stopping you!  The ceremony won't start for another hour or so.  Just go say hi.  Tell him you're in love with him.  Ask him to have his babies or something."

Jimin punched Taehyung's arm one last time in earnest, a glare scrunching his face up.  "I'm a boy, idiot!  And I'm not in love with him...probably.  It's just a crush!  ...Probably."

Taehyung rubbed his upper arm with a pout.  "Whatever.  Just go and say hi.  See what happens.  Maybe tonight's the night.  Finally.  Then you could finally shut up about it."

Jimin bit his plump bottom lip, worry creasing his pretty features, but nodded regardless, eyes already searching for the man he desired.  Behind him, someone cleared their throat.  Jimin whirled around to find himself face-to-face with the very man he sought out.  He stood just the slightest bit too close, causing Jimin to lean back to be able to look at him properly.

Taehyung smirked as his eyes darted between the two.  "I'll just...I'm gonna...bye, Jimin.  See you at the ceremony."

With that, he took off at a brisk pace, leaving Jimin alone with Jungkook.  For a few breathless moments, neither man spoke a word.  Instead they just stared at the other, drinking each other in like water.

"Park Jimin.  I don't know if you know who I am or not, but my name is Jeon Jungkook."

Jimin giggled and Jungkook thought his heart might explode from the sound.  "Of course I know who you are.  You're one of my favorite artists."

Jungkook blushed with a wide bunny grin.  "I am?"  He cleared his throat again, failing to contain that smile as he continued, "I have been wanting to meet you for some time now.  You're kind of an inspiration of mine.  It's because of your early music that I felt like I could follow my dreams and get into the music industry myself."

Jimin was floored and it showed all over his face.  "I'm...I'm your inspiration?  I'm your inspiration? You got into music because of...me?"

Jungkook nodded, his smile turning shy.  "Yes.  And...well, I was wondering.  If it's not too weird for a fan to ask...would you...would you want to...maybe...get dinner with...me...sometime...if it's convenient...if you want...I..."

A squeal left Jimin's throat before he could control himself and the pair stared at each other in mutual embarrassment for a moment before Jimin contained his excitement.  "Are you...is this you...asking me out...on a date?"

"I...if you...do you want it to be a date?  I mean...it doesn't have to be.  I..."

Jimin bit his bottom lip and ruined Jungkook's focus.  "Do you want it to be a date?  Did you ask me to go to dinner with you with the intent of it being a date?"

"I...yes."

Jimin sucked in a sharp breath, causing Jungkook to look up at him in concern.  He was certain he'd just made a fool of himself in front of his idol and crush.  However, that thought was wiped from his mind the moment he saw Jimin smiling so wide his eyes nearly squinted shut.  His own breath was punched from his lungs at the sight. 

"Beautiful," he accidentally whispered under his breath.  Jimin heard it and his smile only got wider.

"Well, when can I expect you, Jungkookie?"

"Ex-expect me?"

Jimin nodded, still smiling sweetly, if not a little shyly.  "For our date?  When are you taking me on our date?"

"I-is that...a yes, then?"

Jimin nodded again and Jungkook fought himself to keep from picking Jimin up and jumping around in joy.  Instead, he leaned a little closer and handed Jimin a slip of paper.  It had his phone number written in sloppy handwriting and Jimin wasn't sure he would ever cherish anything more.

"Text me.  Often.  And we'll find a time that's good for you.  I'll make the time if I have to.  Can't wait for our date, Jiminie," Jungkook whispered into Jimin's ear and planted a kiss on his cheek before walking away with a satisfied grin.

Jimin looked down at the paper in his hands once more and smiled.  After all this time, Taehyung had been right.  Tonight really was the night.  Jimin finally got his crush.
