Hesitant - Jikook

Jimin pov

     I've always liked the rain, it makes me feel calm, at peace. But the peace is easily broken while travelling in a van with 6 other energetic boys.. well maybe except for Yoongi who's overlooking the fun. I watch as the rain continues to pour and droplets racing down the window, V sat beside me chatting happily to Hoseok next to him.
"Winner is on the left"  I hear a voice behind me speak, the warm breath on my neck causing me to jump. Looking over my shoulder I see Jungkook eyeing the same droplets on my window, sure enough he was right.
"Didn't realise we were betting" I reply letting out a small giggle.
"Well I guess now you owe me" flashing his bunny smile he reaches over the seat to ruffle my orange hair.
Cheeks flushing slightly I protest teasingly "I don't think so! I have no recollection of agreeing to any bet!"
"Well how about we bet on the next one?" He smirked.

Jungkook and I have always been close and very comfortable around each other, but even so you can never be sure of his motives! He may be the maknae of the group but that doesn't hold him back from teasing his hyungs.
"I think this one will win" he says, pointing to a promising drop gathering more water as we speak.
"But what are the stakes? What happens if you win?.. I'll pick this one..." hesitantly I pick a droplet near his, weary of what I could be agreeing to.

I hear a low hum as Jungkook considers his bet "how about.." he pauses, subconsciously I begin to hold my breath "If I win-"
"We're here guys!" Jin shouted from the front as the van came to a stop, cutting off Jungkook. Neither of us looked away from our raindrops racing to the finish line, only for his to win again.
Damn, I've made the bet now and don't even know what I've bet on.

"Well, guess this gives me more time to think of my prize" he teased giving me another one of his smirks, he then slides the door open and hops out before I can protest. I linger a moment longer while the others exit the van, glancing back to the window I feel a tug at my lips, curving into a small smile. 

Today we have an interview recording, it's been a while since our last one so I'm actually looking forward to it! There was mention of games or something, but we don't really know any details as of yet. I follow the others through the glass door entrance and past security, slowing his pace to fall in step with mine Taehyung slings an arm over my shoulders.
"Wouldn't want to mess with one of these guys" he gestures to the serious men with radios and aviator sunglasses behind us.
Poking him in the ribs he bursts into giggles. "You're too much of a softy tae" I grin.
"Says you Jiminee!" He tickles me back.
"Taetaetae!! Hahaaa stop!!"
After he stops I pause a moment to catch my breath. I glance ahead and see Jungkook looking back at us with an unusual expression, not something I've seen from him before. Just as quickly as I had noticed he looked away again, stretching his arms out and resting them behind his head.

"Come on Jimin, the dressing room is this way" Tae pulls my wrist, hurrying to catch up with the others and pulling me away from my train of thought. A man with a clipboard leads the group to a large room, tables and chairs across either side of the room lined with large mirrors. There was makeup and hairstyling equipment already laid out and cards with our names on designated seats. Yoongi, Hoseok and Namjoon on one side with Jin, Tae, myself and Jungkook on the other.
Jungkook had kept fairly quiet while the artists did their work, Tae and I teased Jin as he blew kisses in the mirror to Namjoon who was watching his reflection, pretty sure he is crushing on mr worldwide handsome guy over here. As the hairdresser starts to style my hair I close my eyes and relax, the feeling of someone playing with your hair never gets old. It doesn't take long before my breathing slows and I begin to doze off..

A knock on the door startles me from my dreamless nap, the same guy from earlier with the clipboard enters the dressing room to I assume give us a run down on the interview. With a yawn I look up to the mirror only to make contact with another pair of big brown eyes looking into my own, with a soft expression and small smile on his lips the eyes belonged to Jungkook. As if waking up from a daydream he stiffens up and spins around in his chair to face the others and join the briefing. He doesn't seem his usual self today.. maybe he's nervous? No.. the golden maknae doesn't get nervous. I linger a moment more before also turning my chair to join the others.

"Today we shall make Jin the MC as he's the oldest, you'll be reading out questions from fans to the others." The producer then handed Jin some cards.  "We also have a couple of game suggestions from fans too that we've included, but to keep it interesting we won't tell you in advance what they are."
Hoseok and Tae clapped with excitement and Jungkook definitely took interest, probably feeling competitive hearing about the games.
"How much energy will the games require of me?" Yoongi pipes up, causing myself and the others to laugh at his dismay.

Once we are all ready we are lead onto the set. It's quite a simple lay out, nothing too fancy just some chairs in a semi-circle and room for these 'games' in the middle. Jin sits slightly apart while the rest of us take seats at random, Hoseok to one side of me and Namjoon on the other, next to him Jungkook, Tae and then Yoongi.

"Okay Bangtan! we are shooting in 3...2...1!"
