After two hours of playing in the burning sun, the teacher finally let the students go. I saw all the boys getting up and got up with them, where were we going now? I followed them to the entrance of the field where they waited for their friends to come before immediately teasing them.
"So, is that what you do all day?" I asked Yoongi.
"Sometimes. Not every day is busy with class, that's the good thing about college. Today for example, I only had class in the morning so I'm free for the rest of the day"
"How cool, I wish high school was like that, I'm tired of spending all my days at school..."
"I thought you said you liked school because it kept you busy?"
"How do you remember me saying that?" I could feel my heart started racing as I desperately waited for his answer but at the same time the boys started talking about going to eat and Yoongi got distracted.
I walked with them for now, enjoying the atmosphere of being part of a large group of loud friends, walking around campus. It was almost six o'clock now and the sun had already started to set. I looked inside the classrooms as we walked past them and found it incredible to see so many students who were just now starting their class.
"Alright, let's go then. I'm starving"
"Uh" I stopped walking, I had to get back home but how was I supposed to tell them? I knew the normal thing to do was to just speak up but the boys were so loud and caught up in their conversations that they wouldn't even hear me.
I started panicking and just as I was about to turn around and disappear, I heard Yoongi calling out my name.
"Why did you stop?"
"I have to go, my parents expect me for dinner"
"If you want you could ask them to stay with us just to eat and then I can drive you back home"
Looking at his perfect face, a big part of me wanted to say yes and spend as long as I could with him, but the reality was that I had to go home and after all, Yoongi was probably taking care of me out of pity or obligation.
"That's okay, you already took care of me all afternoon, you don't have to do it any longer. But thank you for offering"
"Wait, I wasn't taking care of you. I mean, I didn't do anything that I didn't want to do"
"I know I'm just Namjoon's baby brother to you. You don't have to pretend you enjoy spending time with me"
"I had fun today and I thought you did too"
Hearing those words almost made me fold but I knew I had to be strong. I couldn't let myself indulge in my little fantasy any longer.
"Say goodbye to the others for me, it was great meeting them" I waved goodbye and walked away.
I waited to turn around a corner to take out my phone and find my way back to the entrance of the campus.
When I finally made my way back, I opened my uber app and whined when I saw how high the fares were.
I'll just wait a bit longer for the demand to die down.
It was fully night by now and a cold breeze had me shivering. I had a light jacket on and the material didn't even keep me warm. I waited for about ten minutes before checking the fares again, they hadn't changed.
"Oh, come on" I whined. I was going to have to ask one now, it was already getting late.
I walked out of the entrance and went to wait by the curb as I typed in my coordinates but before I could confirm my trip, a black Mercedes parked in front of me, the window rolling down immediately.
"What are you doing here???" I scoffed but seeing Yoongi behind the wheel was as sexy as the first time he drove me to my house.
"Let me take you home, Jimin"
"No, I don't need you"
"The fares aren't going down, too many students are getting to class or leaving campus. As well as all the people leaving work. It's late, let me drive you home"
I stopped to think about it, I didn't want to owe him anything more...
"Don't be stubborn. Get in"
I huffed but opened the door, getting in the car. The drive was silent, I didn't want to speak to Yoongi so I looked at the window on the opposite side of him but the windows were tinted which meant I could see his reflection in them. I saw his right hand going from resting on his thigh to loosely grabbing the manual stick.
My god, this is torture.
Fifteen minutes later, the car pulled over in front of my house. I was grabbing my backpack when Yoongi lunged in front of me to shut the door before I could step foot out of the car. I stayed quiet, looking in front of me.
"I'm sorry if I made you feel as though I only included you out of obligation for my roommate. But I want you to know that it's not the case"
"Okay" I answered and saw him looking my way.
"You believe me?"
"No" I quickly open the door and exit the car, hurrying to my house.
Without looking back, I entered and stood by the window. Yoongi stayed for a minute before turning his car around and driving away.
I let out a sigh of relief, taking off my shoes and putting down my bag.
"Jimin, is that you?" My mom called out. "Where were you, it's late. We were getting worried. And who drove you home?"
"Sorry, mom. I was with Namjoon and I took an uber home. I'm going to go shower before dinner!" I could see my mom was a bit suspicious, so I grabbed my bag and hurried up the flight of stairs to my room.
