As they walked away, Jimin found himself unable to shake the image from his mind. There was something about the way Yn smiled and laughed with Hobi that tugged at his heartstrings, leaving him with a lingering sense of longing.

"Yo, Jimin!!" Jimin barely noticed his friends calling out to him, their voices pulling him back to reality. "What are you thinking?" Taehyung asked. "Nothing." He said forcing a smile.

"Who was the guy yn was talking to?" Taehyung asked.

"Maybe her friend or boyfriend!!!" Jungkook replied making Jimin feel jealousy. "I don't know," Jimin replied, trying to sound casual. "Just someone she knows, I guess."

Taehyung raised an eyebrow, sensing something off in Jimin's response. "You seem a bit... bothered by it," he remarked, a knowing glint in his eye.

"It's nothing." Jimin said trying to not show that he is jealous. "Let's go." he said.

Next day

yn came to the university with Hoseok, when other 3 saw them.

jungkook: i'm sure there's something that yn didnt told us.

taehyung: what do you mean?

jungkook: look how she is coming with the guy from yesterday. i'm sure there's something going on.

Taehyung looked toward jimin who was watching them. He sensed something wrong.

Taehyung: yo, jimin. Do you....like yn?

Jimin was startled by the sudden question.

Jimin fumbled for an explanation, his cheeks turning slightly pink. "I mean, she's just a friend. We're all friends here, right?"

Jungkook raised an eyebrow, teasingly. "Sure, just friends who stare at each other like they're in a K-drama."

Jimin tried to laugh it off. "Come on, guys. You're reading too much into it. Yn and I are just... friends who happen to have intense eye contact sometimes."

Taehyung smirked. "Intense eye contact, huh? Sounds like the start of a romantic comedy to me."

Jimin's blush deepened. "It's not like that! We're just... friends".

Jungkook and Taehyung exchanged knowing glances. "Sure, Jimin. Whatever you say," Taehyung said, playfully encouraging him.

Jimin: i dont know if i like her that way or not.

"You do bro, We can see you blushing right now." taehyung said.

"But what if there's something going on between yn and that guy." jungkook exclaimed.

jimin tried to push away the feelings of jealousy that threatened to consume him. "Maybe they're just friends," he muttered, more to himself than to his friends.

Jungkook nudged him playfully. "Come on, Jimin, don't be naive. You know there might be something more going on. If you don't make a move, you might lose your chance."

"But i dont know how to," jimin remarked making taehyung chuckle, "c'mon why do you have us then. we'll teach you how to propose her!" he stated.

Taehyung and Jungkook exchanged mischievous looks, clearly enjoying the opportunity to play matchmaker. "Alright, Jimin, first things first," Taehyung began, his voice dripping with mock seriousness. "You need to practice your proposal."

Jimin looked bewildered. "Practice?"

"Yes, practice!" Jungkook chimed in. "You need to be smooth, man. Like, 'Yn, you light up my world like nobody else' kind of smooth."
