Thirty-One

"First, you grasp it firmly in your hand, keeping a good grip that allows for control." Jungkook took the lead, offering clear instructions to Jin on how to properly grip the bowling ball. With expertise, he positioned himself behind Jin, encircling his waist with his arm. Together, they moved towards the line, preparing Jin for his first toss into the hallowed lanes of the bowling alley.

"Then, you pull back your arm like this, making sure you are in control of it so it will go in the direction you want it to and at the speed you want." Jungkook skillfully guided the bowling ball towards the target, maintaining a firm grip with his hand positioned beneath Jin's.

"Now, keep your attention on the pins; as I mentioned earlier, this ball isn't a curveball, so no matter which way you throw it, that's the direction it will travel. Now comes the important part: you must follow through with your throw depending on where you want to strike the pins. Since they are all standing, let's target our throw exactly in the center of the first pin to the right and the one in the middle."

After taking in what Jungkook had to say and allowing him to direct him, Jin did as he was told and then threw his first bowling ball, shutting his eyes afterward because he was doubtful of whether or not he had done it as well as he had seen everyone else doing it.

As soon as he heard the sound of the pins falling, he slowly opened his eyes, anticipation coursing through his veins. He was pleasantly surprised to see all of them tumbling down, resulting in an immediate strike. He screamed excitedly, turning to face Jungkook and embracing him tightly, planting a kiss on his lips.

In the midst of their embrace, Jungkook's lips curved into a smile, radiating warmth and affection. Both of his arms wrapped around Jin's torso, creating a feeling of intimacy and closeness. Jungkook's excitement grew as their kiss intensified, causing him to deepen the connection between their lips. In this tender moment, he held Jin's body more tightly, preserving the physical and emotional bond they exchanged.

"We are not in your bedroom; we are in a bowling alley." Taehyung walked over to where they were kissing, which was enough to get their attention. "Now it's my turn to bowl," he added after they looked at him.

Jin broke away from Jungkook and looked at Taehyung before saying, "We didn't forget where we were, and you can go bowling; no one is stopping you."

"Wow, look at you being mean like your boyfriend. I thought we were friends."

"No, we are not. Jimin is my friend, and you are Jungkook's friend." Jin didn't hesitate to remind Taehyung about the dynamics of their friendship.

Jungkook let out a chuckle upon seeing the stunned expression on Taehyung's face. He then took Jin's hand and led him back to where Jimin was so they could sit and wait for their turn to bowl again.

As Jin approached Jimin and noticed him eating something, his curiosity was piqued. He couldn't help but ask, "What are you eating?"

"Pretzel with cheese sauce. Would you like to give it a try?" Jimin offered, extending the container to Jin.

"Is it gluten-free?"

"No. They don't have that here."

Jin frowned, saying, "My mom is already upset with me, and I don't want to make it worse. I will eat once we leave this place. Jungkook is taking me to a place that offers gluten-free donuts."

Jungkook cocked his head to the side and stared at Jin perplexedly before asking, "I am?" He was hearing about it for the very first time at that point.

"Remember we saw it on the way, and you said you would take me there."

"I do, baby, but I didn't mention that we would go today," Jungkook responded as he sat beside Jin.
