Jimin had spent the Sunday getting his haircut by a friend in the profession,now his dark locks were styled longish on neck shorter on top and suited his delicate features.
His friend had done it for free so as he did it at Jimins ,Jimin had cooked a meal for them both.
"So...no more harassment from the family?"
"No...thankfully,I'm sure they will eventually realise that they should support themselves," Jimin said hopefully.
"Jimin I hate to say it but you're a soft target...they are lazy and you owe them nothing,you spent your savings for gods sake all because they know you will bail them out and look you had to give up that lovely apartment for this tiny place."
"I know you're right...I've decided no more if they come,I'm enabling them by not saying no to them."
"Good for you...how's the new job?"
"It's great I love it there I'm kept busy and they listen to my input,they even let me make some changes!"
"So no lecherous boss to make your life hard like your old place?"
Jimins mind flashed to Jungkook but well he wasn't lecherous and Jimin quite liked his attention.
"No....actually I have five bosses they run it successfully together."
"Sounds great...anyway let me help you clear up then I have to go...that was some meal you cooked!"
"You only got it because I shopped yesterday,"
"I did wonder usually there's not enough here to feed an ant!"
"I am a bit bad with filling my cupboards you're the second person to point it out."
"Well at least you listened,you've gotten quite skinny!"
The pair cleaned up then Jimin saw his friend out.
He couldn't help looking at his phone for a message then put it face down.
"Seriously Jimin...you think he's gonna text you out of the blue because you fucked each other?get real Jimin...he even said friends with benefits...."
Jimin went to bed early determined to get to work and do his job as he should do.
The best laid plans.........
"Damn...why wait to tell me you have pre booked yourself,I need someone today!" Suga stormed his door open making some flinch.
"Can I help?" Jimin asked pushing Suga's door to.
"Bloody idiots double booked himself and I need his voice on the backing track today!"
"Can I find someone else for you?"
"You can look but his voice is...well it's hard to explain...listen this. Is from another track he did."
Suga played it and Jimin ran through it in his head,
"So?" He asked confused
"Can't you hear he hits the high notes not many can do it"
"I can..."
"What?"
"I said I can,obviously not as well as him but if I can do can others."
"Sing this..." Suga demanded passing some words to Jimin and playing a tune he had on his phone.
Jimin looked around trying to get out of it,
"I don't think..."
"Sing it!"
Flustered Jimin belted out the words.
"Holy fuck where have you been hiding?!?!" Suga said astonished.
He grabbed Jimins hand rushing him out making others stare as Jimin was pulled to the lift.
"What are we...."
"Recording...." Suga said a smug smile on his face
The lift came and Suga ushered Jimin in who was remonstrating with him about being an office manager not a singer.
Jungkook got of a phone call and came out to his secretary.
"Why was Suga pulling Jimin along like a madman?"
"I'm not sure sir but I did hear the word recording?"
Jin stepped from his office too.
"Has something happened I haven't seen Suga move that fast since....well I don't know when....?"
"Erm sirs?"
Suga's secretary was standing quietly behind them.
"Yes Lin ?"
"Mr Suga arranged for a regular back up singer to finish an album track today but the man had double booked,so when I told him he was mad and called him,Mr Jimin went in on the conversation...then I think I heard some singing and Mr Suga dragged Mr Jimin out....you think Mr Jimin will be ok?"
Jin and Jungkook looked at each other,
"You think Suga got mad because Jimin stepped in?" Jungkook said a mad Suga was a force to be reckoned with.
"You think he's throwing him out the building?" Jin asked shocked
They both scrambled to the lift and rushed in,going to the recording studios first to find out what happened.
Barging in they were halted by the sight of Suga smiling as he leaned on the decks listening to someone in the booth.
"Er Suga...."
"Hmmm?"
"Did you throw Jimin out?"
"Eh?"
"Well you dragged him out after he went into your office I'm sure we can sort out the problem but throwing him out is a bit extreme..."
"Idiots,he's here...listen"
He flicked a switch and a melodic voice sang out.
"He's perfect...more than perfect actually better than I wanted,why the hell is he an office manager.?"
The other two men were astounded,jimin could not only sing but had a high vocal range.
Suga flipped another switch
"Jimin the second page,I'll play the music and the group singing then I want you to add your voice to the music after."
He played the track then played the music on its own,Jimin's voice rang out pitch perfect .
"That's great thanks Jimin you can come out now"
Jimin stepped from the booth fluffing his hair.
"I hope it helped it's obviously not great but....oh!"
Jimin stopped as he saw Jin and Jungkook there.
"I'm sorry is something wrong upstairs ,I didn't have a chance to leave my location but I can sort it out and make up time after work ."
"Stop panicking...where did you learn to sing like that?"
"Huh? That? I just well sometimes I sing for my friend at his club or I'll just sing when I'm dancing,"
"Sings when he's dancing,guys we have a new idol in the making!"
"We could get songs just for his tone and Suga what do you reckon on his own or with a back up group?"
"Either...he's good enough,"
Jimin watched as the three huddled together talking about him as if he wasn't there. He left uncaring if it was rude or not.
"He'd really appeal to both sexes with that face and voice...Jimin what....." Jungkook turned," where is he?"
"Has he left?" Suga asked amazed
"Erm guys did we even ask what he wanted?" Jin said
All three travelled back to the top floor to make their case to Jimin,he was bent over Mia's computer pointing out something when he became aware of the wall of men standing in front of him.He looked up and spoke calmly,
"No,"
"But Jimin your good,really good,"
"No,"
"But you sang for me?????"
"Suga you can use my voice if it helps you out but singing professionally,hell no!"
Jimin stomped into his office.
"Let me talk to him "Jungkook said causing the other two to wonder why but letting him go in and close the door.
"So why hide that voice of yours and you can dance too,perfect idol material."
"No!"
"Your scared right worried you won't make it,that's natural but...."
"Why do you find it so hard to believe?I HAVE NO INTEREST SO DROP IT!!!"
Jungkook leaned on his desk glaring at him,
"Oh yeah so why sing in a club if it's not to be heard,hmmm?"
"As a favour to a friend that's all!"
"God you know how to pull my strings!" Jungkook said angrily his eyes on the others pouty lips.
"Good cos I'm no puppet that you get to play with when you want!"
Jungkook came around the desk and pulled Jimin up from his chair.
"But I want to play with you,your my favourite new hobby"
"Fuck you!"
"Yes please ," Jungkook growled out smashing his lips on the others.
The kiss was hot like a match lit between them.
Jimin whimpered at the pressure but gave as good back.
A loud knock had them springing apart.
Jimin sat down hiding the effect the kiss had on him and Jungkook stood facing the small window.
"Yes?" Jimin called out.
"Er just checking you two hadn't killed each other..." Jin said popping his head in.
Jungkook turned under control now,
"It seems Jimin doesn't want to be in the limelight despite me trying to change his mind ."
"Really...? Aw such a shame....but it's your choice not ours..."
Jimin nodded and watched as the two left Jungkook glancing at him fire still in his eyes.
