Games

Chapter 21

The entire week it was like nothing ever happened. Both of them ignoring their true feelings and fully playing their game again. Lucy came by with some magazines and dvd's to cheer Jimin up a bit.

" So who's been taking over your classes now that you can't dance?" she asked as she sat down on a chair next to the sofa Jimin was lying on.

" Jay who I do believe, all my teenage girls are in love with. I doubt they'd be happy if I came back!"

" Don't worry Min, I'm sure they'll be thrilled to have you back. Do you think it will take long though?"

Jimin touched his leg as he spoke.

" it's getting better you know! I can walk alright now, it's just when I put real pressure on it, it hurts. So I don't know... Might go back next week and try and join one of Jay's classes to get my strength back..."

" No way!" Jungkook suddenly burst in.

" Weren't you supposed to be visiting some professor? We're having some private gossip time here Kook!" Jimin said, but couldn't help smiling as he walked over to him.

" I'm already done, would you like me to leave again?"

Jimin put his hand in his chin, tapping one finger to his cheek, pretending to think it over.

" Erm..no. You can stay. That is, if you got me any chocolate!"

Jungkook laughed. " You are impossible, you know that right? Here I am, being the good guy, taking care of his best friend, and your taking advantage of it!"

Jimin stuck his tongue out at him as Jungkook turned around and headed for the kitchen. He came back with two Cadbury's bars and put them on the table.

" There you go!"

" Is that all that's left?" Jimin asked. Jungkook laughed.

" That's because the rest is in here somewhere!" He began to tickle his sides.

Jimin laughed out loud trying to grab his hands to make him stop.

" Have mercy please!!" He shouted.

Jungkook stopped, his face inches away from his. There was a short moment of complete silence. The only sound came from Jimin who was trying to catch his breath. Both swallowed hard and Jungkook's tongue darted out to wet his lip. The tension was almost becoming unbearable, when Lucy coughed and Jungkook quickly sat back, lifting Jimin's leg off his lap again and standing up.

" I'll go and buy some more, we need some groceries anyway. Anything else you want?"

Jimin shook his head.

" Lucy, are you staying for dinner?"

" No, thanks Kook, but I'll be heading home soon."

" Alright. I'll be back!" He gently kissed Jimin on the top of his head before he headed out.

" What was that?" Lucy spoke as Jimin watched him leave.

" Hello! jimin?!"

" Mhmm?" Jimin said, focusing on his friend now that Jungkook had closed the door.

" What happened just now?"

" When?" Jimin asked confused.

" When you two forgot that I was here and got all lost in each another!"

" What?" Jimin frowned and shook his head.

" Oh come on Min! If I hadn't have coughed you'd both be snogging right now!"

Jimin looked at his friend almost in disgust. " We would not! I don't know what you think you saw but your wrong. We are just friends!"

Jimin tried to get up but for some reason his leg wasn't helping him much. Lucy quickly pushed him back on to the couch.

" You can say as much as you want Jimin, but I know what I saw. I'll leave now, but don't think for one moment that this conversation is finished!"

A short while later:

" Did Lucy leave already? I wasn't gone that long was I?" Jungkook asked as he put the shopping bags on the kitchen counter. Jimin shrugged and munched on the large piece of chocolate.

" You ok? Did you guys fight or something?"

Jimin got up and slowly walked over to him. " Let me help you with this." He said if ignoring his comment.

" What's wrong Jimin?" Jungkook said as they began putting away the shopping.

" What letter did you pick?"

" What?"

" What letter did you pick?" Jimin exaggerates his pronunciation.

" I heard you, but that has nothing to do with what is going on, is it?"

" No, but I don't want to talk about it and I do want to know what letter you picked."

Jungkook rolled his eyes. " it's Thursday I don't have to tell you yet!"

Jimin pouted. " Alright, I picked the letter 'N' Happy now?"

" If you tell me what it stands for, I am. You said me getting better had something to do with it!"

" True, but it's not Saturday yet either, is it?" Jungkook enjoyed teasing him like that, he smiled as they continued. Jimin walked up to him and out his arms around his waist.

" Forget about Saturday. Can't we play now?"

Jungkook sniggered. " Should know you were the one to be breaking the rules. You always do that with every game..."

Jimin removed his arms from his waist and placed his hands on his sides. " Do not!" he said.

" Do to! But that's alright. I'm on if you want to. I'll nurse you all better!" He winked and emphasised the word nurse.

" Sounds like a plan to me Dr Jeon!"

Jungkook backed home up against the kitchen counter, enjoying getting to feel Jimin's body that close to him again.

" I really miss this..." he said before kissing his collarbone.
