Jungkook shouts in excitement as he hops off my motorcycle, jumping in the air after he takes his helmet off. I chuckle as I shake my head slightly at how happy he is, pulling him into the ice cream parlor quickly since it's already almost ten thirty pm. It closes at eleven on weekends, so I know that we still have a little bit of time left before we need to leave.
The bells above the door chime as we walk in, the older lady behind the counter smiling kindly at us. I quickly scan over the menu before deciding to just get what I always do, waiting for Jungkook to decide.
"I'll get a double scoop of mint ice cream with Oreo crumbles" he says as he licks his lips, already staring at the ice cream hungrily. This boy just ate and is still hungry.
"I'll have a double scoop of rainbow sherbet with gummy bears."
I hand the lady the money while also giving her a tip, thanking her as I take the ice creams from her hands. We sit at a table by the window and I hand Jungkook his ice cream cone, watching as he digs into it. I am much slower, savoring each lick as if it is my last.
"What do you think of my friends noona?" he asks suddenly, his question catching me off guard. I blink a few times before thinking, wanting to answer as truthfully as I can.
"I think they are pretty cool guys. They also seem to accept me for who I am, which is a definite plus. They also treat you nicely, which is the most important part of the whole thing."
He nods as he continues to eat, getting ice cream all over his mouth.
"They like you too. Taehyung and Jimin already refer to you as noona, while the others have some mad respect for you. They think you're totally badass, and if I'm be completely honest, I think Yoongi hyung still has the hots for you."
I can't help but laugh, looking at him incredulously.
"Really? Even after he found out I am gay?"
I shake my head in disbelief when he nods, taking another lick of my ice cream. I can't believe that guy. He does have some nerve asking about my sex life and then asking if he can watch the next time. Just another hormonal teenage boy if you ask me.
"By the way noona, I have something to ask you."
I bite into my cone as he pops the rest of his into his mouth, waiting patiently as he chews and then swallows.
"Me and the guys are going to the beach tomorrow and they wanted to know if you wanted to come with us. I wasn't going to ask you until I was sure that you were ok with them."
"Of course I want to go.....but I just threw my old bathing suit away." I frown as I finish my ice cream, handing Jungkook a napkin so that he can clean his face off. He looks down at the table before snapping his fingers, obviously having come up with something.
"That store that we always shop at for summer clothing sells bathing suits. And it doesn't close until like two am on the weekends."
That's true. Most of the clothing stores along the road don't close until early in the morning on the weekends to accommodate to those of us who like to do their shopping really late at night. I smile before standing up, saying goodbye to the lady before leaving the ice cream shop. The ride into the city is relatively short, it consisting of me speeding down the empty back roads as Jungkook screams like a maniac. I keep having to remind him that he won't be able to do that once he gets his own motorcycle, but for now I'll let him have his fun.
I park in front of the store we are going to shopping at and get off, carrying my helmet in as I make sure that Jungkook does the same. He once left his helmet on the seat of my bike while we went into a shop to rent movies and it got stolen. I always make him carry his new helmet wherever he goes when we take my bike now, not wanting a repeat of what happened any time soon. We bow slightly at the worker behind the counter that greets us before making our way to the back of the store where the bathing suits are.
