Caught in a Lie {Jimin x Reader}

{Chapter 10: Ice Cream}

Y/N's POV

I felt my head spin as I watched another car of people zoom past us on the roller coaster. We were waiting in line for the biggest, most popular ride in the entire amusement park.

Jimin grabbed my hand, his palms sweating. Sadly, I felt calmer seeing him scared like that. I couldn't help but smile. I poked his trembling face and he looked over at me with fear in his eyes.

"Are you okay, Jiminie?" I questioned.

"Huh, uh, y-yeah," he stuttered, "Totally fine."

"You sure, Jiminie," Jungkook laughed as he swung an arm over Jimin's shoulders, "You can sit with me if you're scared. I like to sit in the last row because that's the fastest part of the coaster."

He squeezed my hand at the idea of sitting at the fastest part of the coaster. I laughed.

"I'll sit with you, Jungkook," I looked over to him, "Can't be too bad, right? And you can sit with Hobi in the middle, Jimin. That's usually the easiest part of the coaster."

Jimin nodded his head reluctantly before heading back to a frightened Hobi who couldn't keep his eyes off the top of the coaster, leaving Jungkook and I beside one another. I felt his fingers entwine with mine. I looked up at him in surprise. He was looking straight up at the top of the coaster as well, but I noticed the ends of his lips curl up into a smile before looking down at me and giving me a little wink.

Jimin's POV

They're holding hands now? I couldn't help but be hit by a pang of jealously. I watched as he looked down at her and gave her a little wink. Her cheeks flushed a light pink color. Jungkook chuckled and pinched her cheek.

Stop it. Don't touch her like that...

"Are you okay, Jiminie," Hobi questioned from beside me, "Why do you look so... angry?"

"I'm fine." I muttered, still staring at Y/N and Jungkook's hands entwined in one another's.

"Are you jealous of how close they've become?" He prodded. I looked over to Hobi, his face showing one of understanding. I sighed.

"I like her, Hobi," I spoke softly, just loud enough for him to hear, "But I'm afraid of ruining everything we already have. Our friendship is so good. It's not something I'm ready to risk, ya know?"

"I get it," he nodded his head in response, "But if you're not going to act on it, I think Jungkook will. I've known him for ages, Jimin. When he likes a girl, he'll let her know. At this rate, Y/N will know that Jungkook likes her by the end of the day."

I looked at him in disbelief. Should I let Jungkook and Y/N get together? Maybe that will help me lose this feeling I got for Y/N, and then we could just continue being amazing best friends. I contemplated this idea for the remainder of the line and throughout the entire ride. My mind was filled with so many thoughts, I had completely forgotten the fact that I was riding a roller coaster. The thing that brought me back to reality was Hobi still screaming beside me as the ride came to a stop.

"I want some sweets," Y/N whined as we exited the rides, "Can we get some sweets, Hobi-oppa? Please?"

She made a pouty face that even I couldn't refuse, let alone Hobi.

"Aish, okay, Y/N," Hobi gave in, "I don't know how you can even eat after a ride like that... What do you want?"

"Ice cream." She and Jungkook screamed in unison as they ran off together to the nearest ice creamery. Aish, such kids.

Hobi, I, and the rest of the gang, eventually made our way to the ice creamery where Jungkook and Y/N were skimming through the menu, jumping up and down excitedly. They were bickering about which flavor was "the best flavor ever."

"Mint chocolate chip!" Y/N would scream.

"No," Jungkook yelped in return, "Good 'ole vanilla is always the way to go."

They continued to bicker before Yoongi gave each one of them a flick on the head.

"You guys aren't kids," he mumbled, but in a firm tone, "Stop causing a scene."

"Aish," Jungkook sighed, rubbing his head, "Fine. We'll get one of each, okay Y/N? You can try some of mine and I'll try some of yours. And then we'll decide which flavor is the best, alright?"

Y/N nodded her had in response and we go to ordering our ice cream.

Jungkook's POV

Not gonna lie. Mint chocolate chip ice cream is rather tasty. I noticed Y/N's eyes light up as she took a small bite of her mint chocolate chip ice cream. I guess she realized that I actually enjoyed it.

"So," Y/N wiggled her eyebrows, "Which flavor is the best flavor?"

I stifled a laugh and rolled my eyes, "I guess mint chocolate chip is pretty good."

"Really?" She questioned with a smile.

"Mhm," I replied, taking another bite of her ice cream, "It's sweet and cool. Like you."

I gave her a little wink, and her cheeks flushed pink.

God, she's really cute when she blushes...

"Well," Y/N stated, taking a bite out of my ice cream, "Vanilla's plain and boring. Like you."

She gave me a little wink in return.

"Excuse me?" I scoffed, but she was already running away from me, knowing that I'd be insulted. I quickly ran after her, but not too fast, because I didn't want to drop my precious ice cream. Eventually, Y/N stopped running, and I was able to catch up to her. As I neared her, I noticed she was crying.

"Omo," I gasped, "Y/N, why are you crying?"

"I-I," she stuttered as she wiped away her tears, "I dropped my ice cream."

She pointed to the mint chocolate chip mess on the ground before her and I couldn't help but laugh.

"Aish, Y/N," I chuckled, "You're crying because you dropped your ice cream? Aigoo, it's okay. I'll get you another one, okay?"

"Really?" She mumbled, wiping away her tears, but her eyes were still red.

"Yes," I replied, pulling her in for a hug, "Aigoo, you are too cute, Y/N. You're the only girl I know that cries after dropping some food."

"You think I'm cute?" She questioned as she pulled away.

"Of course," I cried, "You're absolutely adorable."

Her smile widened as she stretched up and placed a kiss on my cheek.

"I think you're cute as well." Y/N whispered before she made her way back to the ice creamery, leaving me in shock.

She just kissed my cheek...
