A beating heart

13. Laughter

-Want to come in? my siblings are coming soon, I'll just order food. 

Part of me wants to stay a bit more with him, but another part of me wants him to decline my offer. I don't want to explain anything. I hope he won't ask any questions. Also, it would be just the two of us, I don't want things to be awkward.

-Sure, he answers.

Why did I ask him to come in? I turn around and I open the building's door. We were, both, silent until we reached my apartment. I turn around and I face him.

-I'm sorry in advance, it's still a bit messy inside, I'm still in the process of unpacking. You see, I have a lot of boxes. I say, suddenly remembering the state the apartment is in.

-No worries, it can't be worse than our dorms, he laughs and I chuckle at his statement.

I open the door and we both take off our shoes as we go in.

-Are you kidding me? He asks, dumbfounded

-What? I look at him, confused.

-You call this messy? It ain't even a bit! Even the unopened boxes are well arranged...he exclaims.

-Well...I don't know since it's small here,  I thought--

-Aniya~ he interrupts me with his laughter.

How precious.

Seeing how he was laughing at the nervous me made me laugh too. We were just there, laughing. The situation is not funny, but when my eyes meet his, I can't help it but just laugh. It's been a while since I've laughed like this. I crouch and I hold my stomach, I'm laughing so hard, it hurts! I turn my head and I see Jimin on the floor too. I am so done.

-Wrof!

Happy! I turn around and I see my sweet dog coming out of my room, running. He jumps and gives one big and clumsy hug. I love this creature. I kiss him and he gets off. He starts sniffing Jimin.

-I didn't know you had a dog! He's so beautiful! What is doing? Asks Jimi still on the floor.

-He's investigating you. He can say if people are trustworthy or not by smelling them. Today, your true colors will come out Park Jimin! I say smirking.

I was afraid things would be awkward, but they're not at all, I am relieved and glad! Jimin puts his right hand on his heart and raises his left hand. Happy stops smelling him and he looks at him, waiting for his next move. What is he doing?

-I, Park Jimin, swear that I am the sweetest, cutest, hottest, smartest angel you can find on earth! He says smirking. Is this a smirk battle?

Boy whuuut?

-Hello, modesty! Are you throwing flowers to yourself? I say laughing at his statement. Happy was still looking at him, judging him really hard. Happy is way smarter than a lot if human beings out there.

-Oh and the most trustworthy one! He states proudly, winking.

That's it, I'm done.

-That ain't your call, though, I look at Happy and he looks at me, so what are your conclusion, Sherlock?

Happy jumps on Jimin and starts licking him. What is this feeling? am I relieved? I smile softly at the beautiful scene that I have in front of me. Jimin's laugh is so precious and I am glad that Happy acknowledged him.

-He likes you, I say standing up and Jimin does the same.

- I like you too.

What? My heart is beating so fast at these words. What's wrong with me? Snap out of it, he's talking about HAPPY! Girl you're so done.
