Save Me

Blush

I fall back in shock. I knew Kibum said I would have a date today, I just didn't expect now out of all times. Jimin approaches me, hand extended.

"How are you doing?" He smiles warmly.
I can't help but blush. Not only did I fall in front of him, but also I'm in my pajamas looking the worst. I almost grab his hand but prop myself up using my own hands.

"Y-y-yeah I'm fine." I stutter. I'm so ashamed of myself...

I run to the bathroom after excusing myself.

"Kibum, are you kidding me?!" I text him.

"Omg well you wont meet him by yourself so I have to help you." I can sense the sassiness laced with his voice as I imagine it.

I waddle into the room again, trying to avoid Jimin.

"It's ok, I know you just woke up. I could go if you'd like." Jimin offered. I'm starting to think Jimin isn't as much of a bad guy as I was thinking.

"No, it's fine." I make myself some coffee in the meanwhile. "Did you come here because of Kibum?"

Jimin blushes. "I won't say exactly what he said, but he said you had a long night."

I stop stirring my coffee. "I literally drank alcohol in the basement with him and my brother."

Jimin looks up and faces ms. "Really? I was told differently."

I approach him slowly, maintaining eye contact. "What did he say?"

Jimin's face immediately flushes. "I'm too embarrassed to say that out loud..."

My eyes widen as I run down to the basement. I slide as I turn around the corner from the stairs and- They're not there.

I run up the stairs to the second floor and open every door. I run to Jimin.

"Where are they?" I ask between pants.

"I'm not sure. They just said to "take care of our precious child." Jimin reads off his phone.

I almost snatch the phone out his hands, and realised something. Kibum must've done it to encourage me to make a move. I wonder if he knew I liked him.

"It's fine. Um, do you want to go anywhere?" I ask, fidgeting with my fingers, trying to divert my attention away from looking at him.

"Our date actually isn't until tomorrow..." He said. When I looked up, he too was looking to the side, blushing quite a bit.

"I'll wait down here, why don't you get yourself ready?" He continued, rubbing his neck awkwardly.

As I look at myself in the mirror I notice how red my face is. "Shit." I mutter. Kibum gave me this opportunity. Time to make the most out of it.
