Love of Our Lives

Chapter 38 - Reassurance

But I was being interrupted slightly when I saw Jimin looking straight into my eyes. It looks likehe has something to tell me. He then began to ask "Did me and Yoongi scared the both of youout?" I looked at Jimin and stay silent for a while still being distracted by his luscious lips. "No...you didn't. We are just still feeling disbelief that you boys are actually undercoverbodyguards." I answered still looking at his lips. What the hell is wrong with me today...? Jimin then pushed my chin up a little so I am actually looking into his eyes and not on his lips.Oops! Did Jimin actually noticed that I was staring at his lips while answering him.

"Are you okay, my dear?" Jimin asked while looking straight into my eyes. I was frozen by his look.I could actually see the color of the contact lenses that he is wearing. It was greenish grey incolor, and why does this color looks so good on Jimin. My goodness..."Oh oh...I am fine...Just a little tired, I guessed." I quickly replied to him so I could break the awkward silencebetween us. "Hey Jimin, I see you seldom wear your spectacles now. Where did your spectacleswent to?" I added. "I thought I will look better without them?" Jimin smirked while answering.Even his smirks are so cute. "You look great in either ways, Jimin!" I smiled at him. And Jimingave a quick peck on my cheeks.

"Are you afraid of being together with me? Because being around with me may be dangerous foryou too." Jimin questioned. "No! Of course not! I am not afraid. I just needed a bit more time todigest whatever you and Yoongi had told us earlier. I am sure Cheryl is not afraid of beingtogether with Yoongi too. She is really very happy to have Yoongi in her life just like how I amhappy to have you in my life too, Jimin. I love you..." I answered Jimin without any hesitation.Jimin stroked my hair and run his fingers through it. "I just want you to know the truth and to behonest with you. You know I love you too." Jimin whispered into my ears. I grabbed both ofJimin's hands and put onto my face. "I know.. Both me and Cheryl were just worried about youand Yoongi's safety. We were just worried about you boys." I told Jimin while trying my bestnot to cry in front of him. I don't want to make him worry. I thought to myself.

"Don't worry my dear, we will be fine. We have already gone through all the trainings needed andwe can fight and protect ourselves and even our loved ones now that is including you and Cheryl.We will be careful as well." Jimin squeezed my hands and reassured me. I put both of myhands behind his neck and started stroking his hair. His hair feels so soft and smooth just likesilk. I then leaned forward and embraced Jimin with my arms tightly. Jimin seems surprisedbecause I seldom hug him so tightly. Before we knew it, it was already going 11pm. "Shall we headto bed, my dear? I will take the floor and you can sleep on my bed." Jimin asked. "NoJimin...Please don't sleep on the floor. We can share the bed if you want." I answered. "Are yousure about this, my dear? I don't want to make you feel uncomfortable or uneasy." Jimin added.

"No.. it's fine. I don't feel uncomfortable or uneasy. So please don't worry." I quickly reassuredJimin while feeling scared deep inside me. I can do this. It's just sharing the bed with Jimin. Whydo I feel so scared about it? Jimin is not the same as my ex-boyfriend. He won't ill treat me, etc.So why do I feel so scared? I tried to calm myself down as much as possible as I don't want Jiminto worry about me. Jimin patted my head and bring me over to the bed. He told me that I couldchoose any side that I want to sleep since it is a king size bed. So I chose to sleep on his rightside. The bed feels so firm yet comfortable and with the pillow that perfectly supports my head.

Jimin rolled over to face me and he tucked me in. After saying goodnight and giving me a kiss onmy forehead, he asked "Are you feeling alright? You look kinda uptight." "I am alright, Jimin. Justfeeling a little nervous because I have never shared a bed with a guy before." I smiled at him shyly.Jimin then began to caress the back of my hand with his thumb and intertwined his fingers withmine. Suddenly, I could feel his face coming close to mine and he whispered to my ears "Don'tworry, my dear. Just close your eyes and go to sleep. I will only go to sleep after you have fallenasleep." I squeezed his hand and looked at him. His angelic smile was so sweet and I fell asleepsoon after.
