JIMIN;
Taking risks are always risky. That's why it's called taking a risk. Some risks can change your life forever. Some can just change a small portion of your life. You never really know, until that risk is taken.
Well that's how I'm feeling. Taking a risk. I never thought I'd determine how I felt about someone by just meeting them. I always thought, that if I were to meet someone, it was going to be for a while. Become their friend first. Then ask them out on a date. But with Lex, well, it's different. A good different. That's what I liked.

I had another plan to meet up with her today at the coffee house. No, this wasn't a date either. Just a hangout, like yesterday. I'm still not gonna lie when I say I wish it was a date. But I have to be careful. I can't let something, that seems too good to be true, make me think that it's okay to jump ahead. Not too fast.

I was having breakfast with Yoongi and Tae in the kitchen in our room. The others went downstairs to eat, while us 3 stayed back and ate. Mainly because we woke up a little late.
"So, tell us, how was your "hangout"" Yoongi asked, putting air quotes over the word hangout.
I smiled a bit thinking about yesterday. "It was a lot of fun. Learned more about her. Discovered some shops and stuff. She learned more about me. I'm enjoying NYC" I said, while taking a bite out of my food.
"Why don't you just ask her out? You're obviously smitten over this girl, if it's caused you to be with her 2 full days in a row" Tae spoke, giving me a half smile, half smirk kinda deal.

"Not yet" I simply said. After a few moments of silence, I spoke again. "I wanna make sure the timing is right. I've never experienced true love before, so if this is true love, then I wanna wait and make sure it's a real thing. Not just something that isn't worth it" I was mainly talking to myself, more than the other two.
Kinda like I was convincing myself to be patient.
"Well, I haven't seen you this excited about someone. She must be pretty special to catch little chim chim's heart" Tae said teasingly, while fluffing up my hair. Me and Yoongi just smiled at him. Yea, she is pretty special.

After what felt like forever, it was finally 1:00pm again. I made it a routine? I guess you could say, to start getting ready and leaving the hotel by 1:30pm. To arrive at where I needed to be before her. I didn't want her to wait alone.

I was wearing, again, a casual- but-not-too-casual outfit again. I decided to go for a fitting sweater, nice skinny jeans and some Nike shoes. I'll save the real outfits for actual dates.
I was fixing my hair when I heard the front door open, and again the sound of the hyung's coming in.
"Hey, she spoke to me! That obviously meant that she has a thing for me!" Jungkook said defensively. I rolled my eyes at how ridiculous he can be sometimes.
"Oh please" Namjoon said with an attitude. "She said excuse me because you got in her way. I don't think that counts" you could tell he was rolling his eyes at the tone of his voice.
Everyone laughed, including me. Then Hobi came into the bathroom.
"Hey hey man! Going out again?? You haven't spent much time with us!" He acted sad and offended.

"Hoseok I see you and the hyung's everyday. It's nice to meet someone new for a change" I said looking at Hobi.
"Ouch. Way to hurt us Park Jimin" I heard Jin say from the living room, he was clutching his heart. I rolled my eyes. "C'mon you know I don't mean it like that. I just really like this girl" I sighed.

"My baby's all grown up" Jin said softly, wiping a fake tear. "We should meet her sometime. I'm curious to see what's so great about this girl" Jungkook chimed in, followed with 'yea's' from the others. "Maybe tomorrow. I'll bring her by back here and introduce you all to her. She's been wanting to meet you" I smiled. "But I have to go now since it's 1:30. See you guys later"
I closed the door with muffled goodbyes from the others, and headed outside to retrieve my taxi, heading towards the coffee house. It's not a date just yet.
