Jeju Fever | #yoonmin

The two have long finished their teas while they're still talking and laughing on the couch. Jimin is so pleasantly surprised by this kind side of Yoongi. They've been talking about Busan, Daegu, Jeju, Yoongi's clumsy friend Namjoon who got into the accident, Jimin's photography, Yoongi's experiences with unusual guests... Jimin keeps trying to make Yoongi laugh so he can see his adorable gummy smile, it just warms his heart. He's really glad it seems like they can actually become friends.

"Oh by the way, how did you know exactly where I was when you came to pick me up?" Jimin asks in full curiosity.

"I was quite sure I knew which waterfall you were at, but I called Hoseok to make sure."

"Really? You called him? You could have just asked me as well."

"Yeah, but you said your battery was dying, so I figured I'd better ask Hoseok." Yoongi shrugs, like it's nothing. Jimin is again impressed, this guy is so casually gentleman-like. "But please don't let this happen again. Why don't you try to still get a rental car?"

"Well, I thought about it, but I'm already leaving the day after tomorrow... after the first day went so well without car I figured it just wasn't worth the effort anymore."

"Right, you're leaving so soon..." Yoongi sighs and purses his lips. He lays his arm on the back of the couch and starts fiddling with the fabric.

"Aww, are you sad that I'm leaving, hyung? Don't be, you'll be glad once this sassy guest is gone." Jimin jokes in a playful tone.

"Hm? Hyung?"

"Oh, I... I assumed you're older than me, so..."

"I am, I saw from your profile on Airbnb, it's just..."

"Should I not call you hyung?" Jimin is suddenly embarrassed about trying to be too friendly with Yoongi, maybe he overstepped the boundary...

"No, it's okay, I actually kind of like it. I was just surprised I think."

"Alright." Jimin blushes and looks at Yoongi's hand, which is still plucking the fabric of the couch. The two sit in silence for a while. Then Jimin notices the time.

"Oh shit, it's 2am?? We should go to sleep, you probably have to get up early as well tomorrow?"

"Ugh, yeah, you're right."

"Where do you live actually, is it far from here?" Jimin asks. Yoongi responds by pointing his finger to the building across the road from the cafe.

"Right there."

"Oh haha, not so far then. Well... thanks again for tonight. The whole night, I mean..." Jimin smiles at his hyung.

"You're welcome, Jimin-ie."

"Jimin-ie?"

"Yeah. If you call me hyung, I'll call you Jimin-ie." Yoongi says confidently, making Jimin's heart flutter.

Jimin puts his sleeping shirt on after taking a nice hot shower. He fills a glass of water to place it next to the bed and lays down. Hopefully he has no trouble falling asleep today like the other nights. When he turns off the light, he notices light coming from outside through a little slit in his curtains. He wonders if he can see Yoongi's apartment from here. Without hesitation he gets up to walk over to the window and peeks through the curtains.

Yeap. That is his building. But which apartment would be his? There's one with the lights still on... Probably that's his. Jimin stays there for a moment, assuming not to see anything, but then Yoongi appears in the room where the lights are on.
