One More Night

DECEMBER 11th 2023.

The maknae's returned back to Jungkook's apartment after seeing Taehyung and Namjoon off. 

It was now... just the two of them.

She could still hear the faint hum of the refrigerator from the kitchen.

The clock on the wall.

Jungkook's phone occasionally buzzing from somewhere in the living room.

That was about it.

After relaxing for a bit, settling in from their long morning, Minhee found herself in the middle of Jungkook's bedroom, staring at the neatly folded clothes she'd just finished organizing for him.

She had already done this twice.

Maybe three times... but the girl couldn't remember at this point.

It wasn't as if Jungkook's apartment needed cleaning. If anything, it was probably cleaner than it had ever been. His bags were already packed. 

His clothes were organized. Anything that needed to be taken care of while he was gone had already been discussed.

There was nothing left to prepare.

And yet, Minhee kept finding things to do.

"Jagi-"

Jungkook's voice came from the hallway. Minhee looked over her shoulder.

"Where did you put my hoodie?"

"The grey one?" 

She turned as he walked into the room 

"Yeah."

Instinctively, Minhee pulled open the second draw of the dresser and handed him the sweater.

A small smile appeared on the boys face as he threw it on heading back to the living room. Minhee shook her head, fighting the smallest smile.

As she turned back toward the closet, her phone buzzed on the bed.

Minhee picked it up, expecting another message from one of the staff. But instead, a photo filled the screen.

She blinked.

Jimin.

Or more accurately, what was left of Jimin's hair.

Jimin stood in front of the camera with his freshly shaved military haircut, one hand raised in an exaggerated salute, his expression so ridiculously serious that it completely contradicted the tiny pout on his lips.

She covered her mouth, with a light laugh. 

Minhee lowered the phone, the smile still lingering on her face.

Why did he look so adorable?

Then she suddenly looked toward the living room.

"Jungkook-ah!"

Jungkook's head immediately popped up from behind the couch.

Minhee hurried out of the bedroom, nearly tripping over the edge of the rug as she made her way toward him.

"Look."

She held the phone out.

Jungkook leaned forward.

The second he saw the picture, his eyebrows shot up.

Jungkook snatched her phone with surprised eyes and had the giggliest yet cutest laugh of all time.

Not the polite little laugh he'd been giving people all day.

Not the quiet chuckle Minhee had heard when they were watching something earlier...
