jimin was probably crazy.

"you've got to be kidding me." taehyung groaned at jimin, rolling his eyes. they were at a knitting store and jimin was filling the whole cart with endless balls of yarn.

"I'm not!" jimin smiled at taehyung, and proceeded to stuff extra yarn balls in.

the lady at the checkout looked at them like they were crazy. taehyung was embarrassed and his head was stuffed in his jacket because he couldn't make eye contact with the lady. jimin was crazy.

jimin forced taehyung to come along with him and be his bag boy. he had persuaded taehyung to do so as he promised to buy him macaroons (green tea macaroons specifically).

"jimin, I don't think you'll be able to break this record..." taehyung says as he stuffs his eighth macaroon in his mouth. jimin shrugs.

"well, I already bought all this yarn." he replied back, heaving the rest of the yarn into the living room of their shared apartment.

"but like, this, this is freaking crazy." taehyung whines, sticking his hands in the air. this is the only time taehyung decides to act like a normal human being with common sense.

"but it's not impossible."

"yeah, but it's crazy."

jimin rolls his eyes at taehyung and throws him a paper towel.

"God, there's crumbs all over your mouth."

taehyung smiles, "thanks."

jimin spends the next week constructing the yarn ball - at school. he ends up getting away with it with no questions asked. the teachers don't even say anything. students from around the campus usually come around and ask him what he's doing, and he answers with a bright: "I'm making the biggest yarn ball!"

they walk away with confused faces and words that escape their mouths once they think jimin's not looking. "he's crazy." is probably the most common one.

his bank is dying right now but he doesn't stop trying to make the yarn ball bigger.

one day, jimin runs out of yarn balls. he panics, and calls taehyung.

"taehyung I've ran out." he says frantically.

"of what?" taehyung bluntly replies.

"yarn!" jimin shouts over the line. he can hear taehyung sigh.

"ask the yarn club." he says.

"yarn club? we have a yarn club here?"

"yeah. it's beside the science room."

jimin hanged up on taehyung right after he gave him directions. jimin wouldn't sacrifice a moment not building the yarn ball. who knows someone else will beat him to it!

he speeds around the campus, running into small corners and losing his path multiple times before finally spotting the science room. he sees a door beside it, and it says "knitting club."

he opens it slowly, and that's when he hears multiple cats meowing.

there, sat a boy with orange hair surrounded with fluffy cats. he was knitting something while petting another big cat. jimin stood there speechless, but the boy didn't notice him otherwise.

"umm..." jimin whispered. the orange haired boy flinched and cocked his head up. he looked at jimin with a brow raised.

"what?" he said.
