🥀 Love is pain 🥀 ' Junoon ❣️ ' ( ✓ )

11.

As the night unfolded, the atmosphere grew more intimate. The group began to prepare for the group dance, everyone buzzing with excitement and anticipation.

Jimin and Yoongi found themselves on the sidelines, discussing their moves. "We should do something unexpected," Yoongi suggested, a glint of mischief in his eyes.

"Unexpected like you being serious for once?" Jimin shot back, trying to mask the flutter in his chest.

Yoongi smirked, leaning in slightly. "I'm serious about having fun. Besides, I thought we were already doing that."

Jimin rolled his eyes but felt a warmth spreading through him at the playful banter. "What do you have in mind?"

"Let's surprise them with something a bit romantic," Yoongi said, his tone shifting to something softer. "Like a slow part in the middle of the dance."

"Romantic?" Jimin echoed, his heart racing. "Are you sure that's a good idea?"

"Why not?" Yoongi replied, stepping closer, his voice low. "It might break the usual routine. Plus, I think it would suit you."

"Suit me? You're delusional," Jimin replied, though he felt a thrill at the thought.

Just then, Jungkook and Taehyung joined them, their energy infectious. "What's this about romance?" Taehyung asked, grinning.

"Yoongi thinks we should include a romantic moment in the group dance," Jimin explained, trying to keep his tone light.

"Oh, that sounds perfect!" Jungkook exclaimed, eyes sparkling. "We can't have a sangeet without a little romance."

Taehyung nodded enthusiastically. "Let's do it! We can make it really special."

As the four of them began to brainstorm ideas, Jimin couldn't help but glance at Yoongi, who was watching him intently. There was something in his gaze that made Jimin's heart race, a flicker of something deeper beneath their usual playful banter.

"Alright, let's practice the basic steps first," Jungkook suggested, taking Taehyung's hand and leading them into the center of the space.

Yoongi moved beside Jimin, their shoulders brushing. "You ready?" he asked, his voice low.

"Ready for what? You to embarrass me in front of everyone?" Jimin replied, trying to keep it light but feeling his pulse quicken.

"Don't worry, I'll make sure you look good," Yoongi said, a playful smile on his lips. "Just follow my lead."

With that, the group started practicing their dance, Jungkook and Taehyung moving effortlessly together, their chemistry undeniable. Jimin felt a rush of warmth watching them, but soon found himself drawn back into the moment with Yoongi.

As they danced, Yoongi kept close, guiding Jimin through the steps with a surprising gentleness. "See? Just like that," he said, his hand resting lightly on Jimin's waist.

Jimin swallowed hard, trying to focus on the dance and not the warmth radiating from Yoongi's touch. "Okay, but don't think this means anything," he muttered, feeling a mix of annoyance and thrill.

"Who says it has to?" Yoongi replied, his eyes twinkling. "We can just enjoy the moment."

As they moved through the routine, Yoongi seamlessly pulled Jimin closer, the two of them gliding through the steps with surprising ease. When the music shifted to a slower tempo, Yoongi seized the moment, pulling Jimin into a gentle spin before wrapping an arm around him, their faces inches apart.

"Now for the romantic part," Yoongi whispered, his breath warm against Jimin's skin.

Jimin's heart raced, caught off guard by the intensity of the moment. "Wait, I didn't agree to this!"

"But you're here, aren't you?" Yoongi replied, a playful smile gracing his lips. "Just trust me."

Jimin hesitated, caught between embarrassment and excitement. "You're ridiculous," he said, though he couldn't help but smile.

"Ridiculous or charming?" Yoongi countered, his gaze locking onto Jimin's.

In that instant, everything else faded away-the noise, the laughter, the anticipation of the group dance. It was just the two of them, the world outside slipping into the background.

"Maybe a little of both," Jimin admitted, his heart pounding as he found himself leaning closer.

"Then let's make it memorable," Yoongi said softly, guiding Jimin into a slow spin as the music continued, their movements fluid and intimate.

Just then, Jungkook and Taehyung joined them, bringing their infectious energy back into the moment. "What are you two up to?" Jungkook teased, grinning as he noticed the closeness.

"Just practicing our moves," Jimin quickly replied, stepping back to regain some distance, his cheeks flushed.

"Practicing or flirting?" Taehyung chimed in, winking at Jimin.

Jimin shot him a glare, but the laughter that followed lightened the moment. "Neither! We were just-"

"Sure, keep telling yourself that," Yoongi interrupted with a teasing smirk, clearly enjoying Jimin's embarrassment.

As they continued practicing, Jimin couldn't shake the feeling that something had shifted between him and Yoongi. The teasing felt different now, layered with an undeniable chemistry that both thrilled and terrified him.

Later that evening, as the group wrapped up their practice, Jimin found himself standing beside Yoongi again, the air thick with unspoken words.

"You know," Yoongi said casually, leaning against the wall, "I think this sangeet is going to be unforgettable."

Jimin nodded, heart racing. "Yeah, especially with you around to make things... interesting."

"I aim to please," Yoongi replied, a playful glint in his eyes. "But seriously, it's going to be a night to remember."

"Let's hope for the best," Jimin said, trying to sound casual, though he felt a rush of excitement at the thought.

As the evening continued, the atmosphere buzzed with laughter and warmth. Jungkook and Taehyung shared sweet moments, stealing kisses and exchanging loving glances, reminding Jimin of the magic of love.

Amidst it all, Jimin couldn't shake the connection he felt with Yoongi. It was unexpected, exhilarating, and a little terrifying all at once.

Later, as the night wound down and the stars twinkled above them, Jimin found himself standing alone for a moment, lost in thought. Suddenly, Yoongi appeared at his side, a curious look on his face.

"Penny for your thoughts?" he asked, genuinely interested.

"I was just thinking about... everything," Jimin replied, glancing at Yoongi. "The wedding, the dance, us."

"Us?" Yoongi echoed, tilting his head slightly, a teasing smile on his lips. "What's there to think about?"

"Maybe how complicated things could get," Jimin admitted, feeling vulnerable.

"Complicated can be good," Yoongi said, stepping closer, the warmth radiating from him. "It means there's something worth exploring."

Jimin felt his heart race at Yoongi's words. "You really think so?"

"I do," Yoongi replied, his gaze steady. "Life's too short to shy away from what could be amazing."

Jimin swallowed hard, the tension palpable between them. "Maybe you're right."

"Let's make a pact then," Yoongi said, a hint of mischief returning. "No holding back at the sangeet. Just let go and enjoy the ride."

"Deal," Jimin replied, feeling a spark of excitement.

As they stood together under the stars, the promise of the night ahead loomed before them, full of unexpected possibilities. In that moment, Jimin realized that perhaps the teasing, the bickering, and the undeniable chemistry with Yoongi were leading to something far more profound than he had ever anticipated.
