Chapter - 31 It feels... comfortable."

Chapter - 31

The car ride back from the concert was filled with a newfound lightness. Yoongi, now more at ease after his encounter with J-Hope, leaned back in his seat, allowing the relaxation to wash over him. Jimin, seated beside him, kept sneaking glances at Yoongi, his heart swelling with pride and affection for the man who had faced his past so bravely.

As they arrived at Jimin's modest apartment, Yoongi looked around with curiosity. The place was small but cozy, with a warm, lived-in feel. Jimin's belongings were neatly arranged, giving the apartment a homely charm that contrasted sharply with Yoongi's more luxurious abode.

Jimin opened the door and led Yoongi inside. “Welcome to my humble abode, hyung,” he said with a smile, though a tinge of embarrassment colored his cheeks.

Yoongi looked around, taking in the simplicity of the space. “It’s nice,” he said sincerely. “It feels... comfortable.”

Jimin’s face lit up with a mix of relief and pleasure. “Thanks, hyung. It’s small, but it’s home.”

They both headed to the bedroom, where Jimin’s bed was situated. The room was adorned with soft lighting and a few framed pictures on the walls, creating a peaceful atmosphere. Jimin set his bag down and gestured for Yoongi to make himself comfortable.

“Feel free to sit down,” Jimin said as he plopped onto the bed, patting the spot beside him.

Yoongi hesitated for a moment but then joined Jimin on the bed, sitting close. The warmth of the bed and the softness of the pillows made the space inviting. Jimin leaned in, resting his head on Yoongi’s shoulder.

“This feels nice,” Jimin murmured, his voice barely above a whisper.

Yoongi placed a gentle hand on Jimin’s head, his heart swelling with affection. “It does.”

As they settled into a comfortable position, there was a knock on the door. Jimin’s eyes widened slightly, but before he could react, Taehyung and Jungkook burst in, their usual energy apparent even in the cozy setting.

“Surprise!” Taehyung announced, a mischievous grin on his face.

Jungkook followed, carrying a bag of snacks and a bottle of wine. “We thought we’d drop by and keep you guys company.”

Jimin looked at them with a mixture of surprise and amusement. “You didn’t have to come over, you know.”

Taehyung waved off Jimin’s concerns. “We wanted to. Besides, we missed you guys.”

Jungkook set up the snacks on the small table next to the bed, while Taehyung flopped down next to Jimin. “So, how was the concert?” he asked, giving Yoongi a curious look.

“It was incredible,” Yoongi said, his voice holding a note of genuine appreciation. “J-Hope was amazing. It was good to see him again.”

Taehyung’s eyes lit up. “I’m glad you enjoyed it, hyung.”

As the evening progressed, the mood in the apartment became more relaxed and cheerful. The small space seemed to fill with warmth as the group laughed, talked, and enjoyed the snacks and wine. Taehyung and Jungkook’s playful banter added a lively touch to the atmosphere.

At some point, Taehyung and Jungkook began to flirt with each other in a lighthearted, teasing manner. Their playful exchanges were filled with affection and made Jimin smile. Despite his initial embarrassment about the small apartment, Jimin felt at ease surrounded by his friends and Yoongi.

Yoongi, watching the interactions between Taehyung and Jungkook, felt a sense of contentment. It was a different experience from his usual high-profile gatherings, but he found it refreshing. The warmth and intimacy of Jimin’s small apartment provided a stark contrast to the grandiosity of his own home.

As the night wore on, the group’s energy shifted to a more relaxed and cozy vibe. Taehyung and Jungkook cuddled up together on the floor, their playful banter turning into soft whispers and gentle touches. Jimin and Yoongi remained on the bed, close together, their earlier conversation replaced by a comfortable silence.

Jimin turned to Yoongi, resting his head on his shoulder again. “Hyung, I’m really glad you came tonight.”

Yoongi looked down at Jimin, his expression softening. “Me too. I needed this. It’s been a while since I’ve felt this relaxed.”

Jimin smiled, his eyes reflecting the soft light of the room. “It’s nice to see you happy.”

Yoongi’s hand brushed against Jimin’s, and he squeezed it gently. “You make me happy, Jimin.”

Their conversation was interrupted by a sudden burst of laughter from Taehyung and Jungkook. Jimin and Yoongi glanced over to see the two of them engaged in a playful tickle fight, their laughter filling the room with joy.

Jimin chuckled softly, leaning closer to Yoongi. “They’re always like this.”

Yoongi smiled, his gaze fixed on Taehyung and Jungkook. “They’re fun. I can see why you enjoy spending time with them.”

Jimin’s smile widened. “Yeah, they’re like family to me.”

As the night grew later, Taehyung and Jungkook eventually settled down, their playful energy giving way to a more relaxed demeanor. Taehyung lay down with his head resting on Jungkook’s lap, while Jungkook gently stroked his hair.

Jimin shifted slightly, moving closer to Yoongi. “Hyung, do you want to watch a movie or something?”

Yoongi looked thoughtful for a moment before nodding. “Sure, that sounds nice.”

Jimin grabbed the remote and turned on the TV, scrolling through their options. Taehyung and Jungkook, already cozy, didn’t protest, their attention on each other as the movie began to play.

Yoongi and Jimin snuggled under the covers, their closeness providing a comforting sense of security. As the movie played, they occasionally glanced at each other, their smiles reflecting the warmth of the moment.

Jimin turned to Yoongi, his eyes filled with affection. “Hyung, I’m really happy we’re here together like this.”

Yoongi’s hand found Jimin’s, and he gave it a gentle squeeze. “Me too, Jimin. I’ve been needing this.”

Jimin leaned in and pressed a soft kiss to Yoongi’s cheek. “Thank you for being here. It means a lot to me.”

Yoongi turned to Jimin, his eyes filled with sincerity. “Thank you for inviting me into your world. It’s been a long time since I’ve felt this content.”

As the movie continued, the room was filled with the soft glow of the screen and the occasional laughter from Taehyung and Jungkook. The atmosphere was cozy, the connections between them stronger than ever.

Yoongi glanced around the room, taking in the peaceful scene. Despite the small space, it felt like home. Jimin’s warmth, the laughter of friends, and the shared moments of closeness made the night memorable.

As the movie came to an end, Taehyung and Jungkook were already drifting off to sleep. Jimin and Yoongi stayed awake a little longer, savoring the quiet intimacy of the moment.

Yoongi turned to Jimin, his voice barely above a whisper. “Jimin, I... I want you to know that I’m here for you. Always.”

Jimin’s heart swelled with emotion. He looked up at Yoongi, his eyes filled with gratitude. “And I’m here for you, too. We’ll face everything together.”

They shared a tender kiss, their love and support for each other evident in the quiet, intimate moments they shared. As they held each other close, the world outside seemed distant, the comfort of their shared space wrapping around them like a warm embrace.

In that small apartment, surrounded by friends and the soft glow of the television, Jimin and Yoongi found a profound sense of peace and belonging. The night was filled with the promise of a future together, facing whatever challenges came their way with love and unwavering support.
