Arcade Confessions || Kim NamJoon

V. Hug it out.

You won, but by mere luck. When only 6 seconds were missing, and HoSeok hit the disk, his thing to hit it went flying so after you blocked his shoot, you returned it, but he had no way of defending himself.

"You know? I don't think you should've shoot when I had nothing to protect myself."

"Hobi, in the games of love and war everything is possible."

"I don't think the quote is like that."

"I'm not sure either, but the idea remains."

When you passed in front of the claw machines you stopped and went to see what they had inside. Most of them had generic stuffed animals, like bears, cats, dogs, frogs and pigs, but then the ones with branded characters machines begun, showing cages filled with Kittys, Disney and Nintendo characters and emojis pillows, from the generic ones to most specific program ones, like Facebook messenger ones or Kakao ones.

Speaking of, NamJoon had an adorable obsession with the yellow-ish bear Ryan.

You decided to try get a pillow with the bear's face for him, as a gift for him winning the schools talent performance contest two weeks ago. Sadly you couldn't go, both your orchestra rehearsal for the final concert and your just discovered crush on him interfering.

So this was a perfect chance.

"Hey (Y/N)! We are going to the DDR machines again, Jimin is saying he can beat me at Beethoven Virus."

"You rock that song Hobi! You got this! I'll be there in a moment."

He patted your back while wispering to you "And if you get that pillow for him, he might want to kiss you, not a lot of people remember he likes that bear."

"Oh sush, I need to focus. Go kick Jimin's ass."

And so your battle with the claw machine begun.

In the first try you got the pillow really close to the hole, but when the claw stopped to change directions, it dropped it. You couldn't even grab it or make it stay in the claw after hitting the upper part the next three tries.

At the fifth (and last) try the universe seemed to have helped you, 'cause you grabbed the pillow, the claw didn't drop it and it fell in the exact middle of the hole.

And so you grabbed your not-for-you price.

You gotta admit, the bear was kind of weird but once you got to appreciate it enough, it was really cute. You weren't making a parallel with him and NamJoon, no no.

When you arrived at the DDR machines, the boys were still waiting in "line" to get a chance of using them, so you looked out for NamJoon.

You found him near the berberage machine, choosing what to buy.

"You know? I particularly don't like Root Beer, but the brand this machine has is really good. I'm not even sure if it is root beer at all, but oh well." All this monologue of yours he didn't look back, but you were glad he didn't so you could give him the stuffed bear head in a more interesting way.

"Yeah I know, but it's expensive and honestly I've tried betters. Is just there's this guava and mango mix juice but then there's the strawberry and watermelon one so I can't choose."

"Maybe you could talk about it with the pillow." And now you were standing slightly behind him, at his right.

"What? At night? but..."
