His Eyes

chapter 8

Yoongi hyung wouldn't let me go to school for the next fe days and it killed me.
Taehyung visited everyday , claiming Jimin was worried shit, and was always asking how you were.
That made me smile like an idiot the whole day.
Yoongi hyung understood , Park Jimin had a special place in both the good and bad of me. But he didn't further question me.  He took few days off college, despite my protests, wanting to look after me.

Taehyung took this chance to win the heart of his 'Goongi hyung' by helping him clean and Cook (though he barely knows how to cut onions).

Despite the warm feeling I was feeling when I was with them, there was still a tinge of emptiness craving for a sweet eye smile from a dangerous boy.

Monday morning

Taehyung dragged me to school, taking me straight from my house making sure I was guarded like a prince , no falls , no tripping , definitely no daydreaming.
As I neared the building, my heart stared to feel extremely excited. A blazing hotness was seeping through my skin. Jimin was around.
I can feel it.
"Kookie!"  I turned to the melodic sound of his. Taehyung too." Jimminie!!" Taehyung ran up to him to hug him. I just stayed.

Watching. Concentrating on the sound of my hear beat , hoping against hope to not have another panic attack. I slowly let my eyes wonder over to the top of the head. Both the numbers clashing
A blood red 10 and a warm orange 0.

I breathed in and out. OK , my eyes were adjusting. It just a number I was telling myself.
I actually believed that as soon as I saw what I craved the most. 

"Kookie ah? Are you OK?"
Jimin stepped closer to me,  cautiously. I felt guilt seep in , he must have thought it was him who scared Jungkook. Well it was, bit not ONLY him.

"I'm fine hyung!" It came out harshly than I thought. What was wrong with me? I saw Jimin step back. Uncertainty flashed in his eyes.

"Im sorry I'm sorry I didn't mean to sound it like that!" I rushed to explain. Taehyung staring at me over Jimins shoulder, nodding as if encouragement.

I was too busy trying to make Jimin feel fine. Which did work since he visible relaxed. Without knowing I had engulfed him in a hug

Have you ever felt so vulnerable but so strong at the same time? The sweetest and the most soothing warmth filled my body as I crashed our bodies together. My hands gripped tightly around his waist, his around my Stomach, mentally telling myself , this is just to CORMFORT him. Nothing else.

Oh but it felt a hell of a lot more than that. I was happy, no ELATED , like I was high, and I never wanted to let go. When he laid his head slowly on my shoulder his face buried in my neck I realized , happy feelings were something fine. But I definitely shouldn't get aroused when school was to start in 5 minutes.

Taehyung (thank you) cleared his throat very loudly , making it very obvious that he was doing it in purpose. We let go immediately. As quick as that I missed the warmth in my arms. Neither of us were meeting our eyes, both looking away, Jimin was blushing and it was now my new favourite sight of Park Jimin.

"So , This is as awkward as my  sex life" Taehyung gave his famous box smile.

Seeing neither were making any reaction to talk , he sighed.

"Come on ! Let's go to class, or I'll just get drowned by this awkwardness!" And he steered us both from our shoulders to the classroom.

"Jimin ah!" Taehyung out as soon as the bell rang ending school. "Let's go our for dinner?"
"Yeah sure cool! Where are we going?"
"I have  an idea! You go with Jungkook and I'll come bringing Yoongi hyung? OK?"

Oh no. I tried to avoid this as much as possible. But Taehyung was Koala hugging that idea which I know is going to mess everything up.

I tried to worm out if it. "I'll go get Yoongi hyung! I don't know where to go anyway!"

"No you do, well go to Rio"
"But you said it was dinner!"
"Well. Yeah. Ice cream is DINNER!"

I sighed. Jimin gave a high pitched giggle and we both shared a shy glance shaking our heads at the Talien.

"So ,like I'm going to go and get Yoongi hyung OK?" And Taehyung left at top speed , not forgetting to wink at me.

The wind was blowing hard when we stepped out to walk to the Ice cream shop nearby. Looking at Jimin and his brown hair flying made my inside squeal. Uncontrollably. Oh gosh what are you Jeon Jungkook? A thirteen year old love sick girl? I sure do sound like one. Oh hell no.

"Kookie?"
"Uh huh?" Still in trance with this beauty.

"Aren't you like coming?" That made me realize I had stopped in  the middle of the road to - I have no idea why I stopped actually.
Whatever reason I stopped , it must have definitely not been to say this.

"Wait a minute , I'm seeing an angel right now "

And so. Fuck me.

Jimins look was consumed by supposedly humorous incredulity.  And I stood there few feet away from him , blushing to the roots of my hair helplessly trying to get back what I said.

"I-i m-mean hyung-g let's go quickly right !! Other wise the shops will close !!"
I , not wasting a second  to let him speak, dragged his fallen-in- shock arm , desperately towards the Ice cream shop.

I really didn't have any guts to look at the guy , who was trailing past me, letting me drag him like a rag doll.
