"It's been a while since we had a lunch this lively. It was always me and my wife."

Mr. Park said in which Taehyung nodded his head, smiling.  Indeed, the dining hall is loud with full of chattering. Especially from jimin's parents who shared a lot of things to the youngsters and Taehyung answering to the questions that thrown at him in between.
But jimin was mostly silent, nervous, to be exact. Taehyung's presence bothered him more than he thought it would, but what is really irritating him was the other's presence bothered him in a good way. Jimin doesn't like it in any sense.

" The jajjangmyeon tastes so good."

Taehyung commented. Mrs. Park stopped talking and looked at him.

" it's not like tha- Everything tastes good .. b-ut I really liked jajjangmy-."
Jimin's mother laughed at Taehyung, who was struggling with his words. The latter scratched his head, smiling sheepishly.
He looked so funny that jimin couldn't hold anymore and started laughing along with others. The taller's face became red with embarrassment.

If anyone could go to his company and told the whole staff he is literally being laughed by the family of the owner of the canteen in their company, no one would believe them.
But for him Mr.Park had always been someone so important and now jimin too. No matter how much he tries to deny it, he knows that jimin is slowly becoming someone who is important to him.
He looked over at the younger who was laughing, his face looked so bright and those cringed eyes and crooked tooth was really giving cute complexion to the other's face, which he found so adorable. Watching jimin laughing brought a satisfied smile on taehyung's smile.

Soon, they finished their lunch, and Taehyung announced that this is his queue to leave. The Park couple agreed and walked him off to the door. Mrs. Park handed him a package and told him that there were some homemade snacks.
Even  though taehyung tried to deny it politely, jimin's mother insisted more, which he finally gave up, took the package, and smiling warmly. Taehyung is really impressed in himself that he is really smiling a lot today. He could swear that , today, he smiled more than he did in the past few years. Well, it's just that he is not really good with people since he always used to shut down everyone. But jimin's parents really had an outgoing personality, which made him feel welcomed.

And maybe... maybe a little  he could feel that his personality is changing, rather than ignoring or being cold to everyone, taehyung could feel himself that he is slowly warming up. And the reason is... No!!. Taehyung doesn't want to think about it.
He finally bid goodbye to the elders and turned to leave, but his eyes got caught on jimin, who was avoiding his eyes. Then taehyung thought about last night, remembered how he completely shut him off by telling the younger to leave the room just like that.
He cleared his throat, completely turning to jimin, who finally looked at him, their eyes locking. Both of their breath hitched, especially taehyung, who found jimin so pretty and enchanting  whose hair is slowly swaying in the wind and how his skin is glowing against the afternoon sunlight.

" You will be at the mansion tomorrow morning, right?." Taehyung tried hard as he could to hold his voice stern, but it came out as a soft Velvety voice.
Jimin's eyes widened and mumbled a small 'yes' and tucked his hair behind his ears, looking down shyly.
This doesn't go unnoticed by the pregnant woman who almost confirmed that there's something going on between them.
Taehyung finally said one last goodbye and walked towards his car, and hopped on his car, Turing his head towards one more time and giving him a small smile. Jimin also smiled back unconsciously, waving his hands in tiny.

_______________

Jimin was inside the bus, heading to taehyung's mansion.
He woke up earlier than usual since he had to go to the mansion and college. He got ready and set out to leave saying goodbye to his parents. His mother looked like she was gonna cry anytime. He could say that she became more emotional due to pregnancy.
Jimin smiled at the memory and stood up from the seat when his stop finally arrived. He practically ran to taehyung's place since he has to get everything ready before the other has to leave.

He greeted the maids on the way and reached taehyung's office in his room. Without wasting anytime, the younger looked through the other's schedule and prepared every file he needed, then a maid knocked on the door informing taehyung's breakfast is here. Jimin mumbled a small thank you and put the tray on the table. He then strolled towards taehyung's closet, picking the other's outfit. He picked an ash Grey suit and white shirt.

Right then, the bathroom door opened, revealing a half-naked taehyung, 'why it's always like this,' jimin cursed at himself, closing his eyes shut, completely turning around his back facing taehyung.
The first thing taehyung's eye setted was jimin's small figure standing near his closet. He snickered at the other reaction, walked towards him, and stopped right there when his chest touched the other's back. He could feel how jimin's  breath hitched, his lips curling up into a small smirk. He again moved his body closer to the other's.

" wh-at are you doing?." the younger asked in a small voice.
"My outfit!."
Taehyung stated, reaching his hand towards the outfit jimin held.
slightly, brushing his fingers against jimin's shoulder while doing so. Jimin quickly mumbled a ' sorry ' and turned around handing the outfit looking anywhere but the older's face. His smirk grew wider at that.
As it was to tease the younger, he went to untangle the towel on his waist without any warning, jimin panicked and turned around as fast as he could, which resulted in stumbling against the closet.
  Taehyung laughed at that heartily, whispering ' calm down '. The latter's face turned crimson red ,he was embarrassed. He quickly pulled himself together and searched for the tie, but he got confused about choosing one and turned around slowly when he finally felt taehyung started walking away.

The taller wore the suit pants and white shirt while walking towards the table where his breakfast was placed. Jimin couldn't comprehend how hot taehyung looked always, especially in his office clothes.

" uhmm- can you choose one of the ties that you w-ould like to wear?." Jimin asked, showing a couple of ties that he thought would match the other's clothes. The older nodded and checked the ties.
" Take that wine red one!." He ordered, jimin nodded his head and neatly put the other ties into the closet.
Then he heard taehyung's voice.
"And tie that for me."

"What!!?."

" what?, can't you see I'm eating, so yeah.. help me. " Taehyung said, muncing his toast.
Jimin again nodded for another time that day.
He walked towards the taller, swallowing hard. After taking a deep breath, he put the tie on the other's nape, who bent his down slightly. Jimin started tying, keeping a distance as much as he could.
But to his dismay, taehyung put his hand on the smaller's waist, pulling him closer.

"Stay close, jimin-ah!" He whispered in a huskie voice  , a voice that jimin never heard the other using. Jimin's knees went weak. He felt like his whole face was on fire while his fingertips were cold. Taehyung looked at the other's flustered face, finding it satisfying somehow.
His eyes finally locked on the other's lips. Those were so attractive that taehyung found it so irresistible. He still remembers the day at the restaurant and how attracted he was to the latter, especially that damn lips.
Jimin finally finished tying the tie, and he himself let out deep breath. But when he tried back away from the older, he felt that the other's big hands were still on his waist while he was still eating toast little by little. 

jimin let out surprised squeal when taehyung put the toast right in front of mouth. Jimin looked at him confused.

" Open your mouth." Taehyung whispered in a low voice that shuddered jimin's whole body. The latter opened his mouth, holding eye contact with taehyung. He slowly took the toast into his mouth and bits a piece, his plump lips squishing while doing so, The older closed his eyes hissing.
' Those darn lips again!!'. He pushed jimin away, who looked at him startled.
He took every file and other things needed and basically stomped out of the room, leaving a hurt jimin behind. Taehyung hated feeling this. He just can't believe that he is thinking about jimin in that way.. he felt angry at himself,  so he left from there right away because he knew otherwise he would take all the frustration on jimin. And deep down in his heart, he doesn't want to hurt the younger like that anymore. He still remembers how he used to treat the other, and he regrets it everyday, even though he doesn't want to admit it, He mumbled to himself, " yes!, I do care about him.. I do care about you, Park jimin!.. alot!!."
