The morning of their departure arrived, filled with excitement and a hint of nervousness as everyone gathered in the living room, their bags piled near the door. Jimin was running through a mental checklist of everything he had packed while Jungkook and Taehyung were already buzzing with anticipation, sharing snippets of their plans for London.
“Don’t forget to take pictures!” Taehyung exclaimed, adjusting his bag on his shoulder. “I want to see everything, especially if we visit the Harry Potter studio tour.”
Jungkook laughed, leaning in to plant a kiss on Taehyung’s forehead. “I promise, I’ll capture all the magical moments.”
Jimin smiled at the sight of them, feeling a warmth in his chest at the sight of his brother and Taehyung so in love. But as he glanced toward the staircase, he noticed Yoongi making his way down, a coffee mug in hand, hair slightly tousled but looking effortlessly charming in his dark green kurta.
“Ready to go, sleeping beauty?” Yoongi called out, a teasing lilt in his voice as he reached the bottom of the stairs.
Jimin rolled his eyes but felt his heart skip a beat at the sight of him. “I was ready before you woke up,” he shot back, trying to sound annoyed but failing miserably.
Yoongi grinned, clearly enjoying their banter. “I just wanted to make sure you didn’t forget anything important. Like how to have fun.”
“Oh, please,” Jimin retorted, crossing his arms. “I know how to have fun. You’re the one who needs to catch up.”
“Touché,” Yoongi replied, taking a sip of his coffee. “But we both know I’m more fun than you’ll ever be.”
Before Jimin could respond, Taehyung chimed in. “Can you two save the bickering for when we’re in London? We need to get going!”
With that, everyone grabbed their bags and headed out to the waiting car, the excitement palpable in the air. The drive to the airport was filled with laughter and playful arguments about who would get the window seat and what snacks to buy for the flight.
As they made their way through the airport, Jimin found himself walking next to Yoongi, who kept stealing glances at him, a mischievous smirk plastered on his face. Jimin tried to maintain his focus on the terminal signs, but the way Yoongi kept leaning closer made it difficult.
“What’s so funny?” Jimin finally asked, irritation lacing his tone.
“Just thinking about how cute you look when you’re pretending not to be affected by me,” Yoongi replied, his voice low and teasing.
Jimin felt his cheeks flush. “I’m not pretending! And I’m not cute!”
“Oh, but you are,” Yoongi said, his expression turning serious for a brief moment before returning to his usual playful demeanor. “It’s adorable.”
“Shut up,” Jimin said, trying to sound fierce but failing to hide the smile tugging at his lips.
Once they reached the gate, the group settled in, and after a bit of waiting, they boarded the plane. Taehyung and Jungkook quickly secured their seats together, leaving Jimin and Yoongi to sit next to each other. Jimin felt a mix of dread and excitement—he could only imagine how much Yoongi would tease him during the flight.
As the plane took off, Taehyung grabbed Jungkook's hand, squeezing it with excitement. “We’re going to have the best time!” he said, his eyes sparkling with joy.
Yoongi turned to Jimin, who was focused on the window, watching as the ground fell away. “You okay over there? Not too scared of flying, are you?” he asked, his tone half-serious, half-teasing.
Jimin rolled his eyes again but couldn’t help the smile on his face. “I’m fine. Just trying to enjoy the view, unlike you, who’s trying to get under my skin.”
“I can’t help it if you’re just so easy to rile up,” Yoongi replied, his voice playful.
“Easy? I’m not easy!” Jimin shot back, though his heart raced at the playful banter.
“I think you’re just in denial,” Yoongi replied with a wink.
Their playful bickering continued throughout the flight, interspersed with laughter and shared snacks. Jimin tried to maintain his tough exterior, but the lightheartedness with Yoongi made it hard to keep up the façade. They settled into a comfortable rhythm, teasing each other back and forth as the plane cruised through the clouds.
When they finally landed in London, Jimin felt a surge of excitement mingled with nervousness. The city sprawled out before them, vibrant and alive, and he couldn’t help but feel that this trip might be a turning point for him, especially with Yoongi around.
As they collected their bags and stepped outside the airport, Taehyung and Jungkook led the way, their enthusiasm infectious. Jimin found himself walking next to Yoongi again, the energy between them shifting subtly.
“So, what’s the first thing you want to do?” Yoongi asked, glancing sideways at Jimin.
“I don’t know,” Jimin replied, his gaze drifting toward the bustling streets of London. “Maybe check out some local food places?”
“Food, huh?” Yoongi mused, nodding. “You might just be speaking my language. Let’s find somewhere good then. I’ll even let you pick the first place.”
“Are you actually offering to let me choose?” Jimin asked, raising an eyebrow.
“Don’t get used to it,” Yoongi said, chuckling. “But this is London—we need to try everything.”
As they ventured into the city, surrounded by the lively atmosphere, Jimin felt a thrill of anticipation. With Yoongi by his side, the trip promised to be anything but ordinary, and as they laughed and bickered their way through the streets, Jimin couldn’t shake the feeling that perhaps this was the start of something new—something exciting.
