Jimin's POV

We walked down the street together, leaving the arcade. Seulgi and I were ahead of everyone, her hand in mine. I can feel the teasing stares and hear the snickers as we walked ahead. Seulgi and I weren't official, for I never asked her to be my girlfriend and I'm too sure if she likes me. She likes me right? What if she's only doing this because she's too nice to reject me? My mind was so overwhelmed with these thoughts that I didn't even realize where we going until Seulgi tugged on my hand.

"What are you thinking about? You seem so out of it," she said, looking at me curiously. I shook my head and smiled.

"It's nothing to be honest. I was just wondering what we are going to eat," I lied. She looked at me as if she knew I was lying, but didn't say anything else. We stopped when we reached a snack bar and waited for the others to catch up.

"Finally the couple realizes that there are other people here," Jungkook teases, making both Seulgi and I blush. We took a seat at a table and waited while Jin and Namjoon went to order. While we sat there, the boys and I started to mess around with each other, making the mood less awkward.

" Let's get to know each other better," Taehyung suddenly says, catching everyone's attention. Everyone nods there heads in agreement, even Seulgi and Irene.

" Who wants to ask the first question?" Hoseok asks, looking around excitedly. Before anyone can volunteer, Namjoon and Jin come back with the food and we begin eating, forgetting the activity we previously planned.

" Guys, we still have to ask questions about each other. How about I will go first?" Hoseok says.

"Okay...first question is for Seulgi and Irene," he states, all eyes turning to them. Seulgi and Irene look at Hoseok, slightly nervous about what he was going to ask.

"How did you guys become friends?" he asks. Irene and Seulgi looks at each other and smile.

" Well, Seulgi got into an accident on the way to school and I was coincidentally there. I went to help her and we became friends ever since," Irene replied.

" You got into an accident?!? Why didn't you tell me? Were you hurt? Are you okay now? Do you know who caused the accident? Are you sure you weren't severely injured?" I asked, not even realizing that some of the questions I was asking sounded ridiculous. Of course she's not severely injured Jimin, she's right in front of you! Everyone begans to send me a teasing smile while Seulgi's face was turning different shades of pink and red.

" I've never seen Jimin so worried. Last time he was this worried was when he thought he wouldn't be able to-" Taehyung stopped abruptly, looking at me with sad eyes. All of my friends glanced at me, causing to look away and tried to change the topic.

" Whose turn is it to ask a question now? Can I ask something?" I asked, clearly my throat to lighten the atmosphere. Everyone nods their heads and from the corner of my eye, I see Seulgi looking at me questioningly.

" I have a question for Seulgi," I said, facing her. "Do you have a boyfriend? Supposedly, if a boy asks you out, would you say yes?" I asked, not comprehending what I had just said until I blurted it out. Seulgi looks at me in surprise as her eyes widen and her cheeks become as red as a tomato. Seulgi wasn't the only one surprised, as everyone had their mouths hanging open.

Seulgi's POV

I stared at Jimin, stunned at what he just asked me. Was he asking me out? So...does he like me as much as I like him? A bunch of questions ran through my head as I stared blankly into space. I felt Irene tap on my thigh, snapping me out of my trance and causing me to face the eight curious faces.

" I-I don't have a boyfriend and um...I'll say yes depending on who asks me," I murmur, hiding my face in my hair.

" So if I asked you out on a date, would you say yes?" he asked, giving me a hopeful smile. I looked at him, stunned, embarrassed, and happy at the exact same time. Park Jimin just asked me out on a date. Was I dreaming? I looked at Irene, who was giving me a motherly smile, and the rest of the guys, who were to busy teasing Jimin for his confession. He looks at me again, waiting for an answer.

" I would say yes," I said, meeting his stare. His eyes forming into my favorite eye smiles as he grinned at me, his smile melting my heart. The rest of them clapped and cheered, hitting Jimin in excitement.

" Wait," Taehyung said. " I still have a question for Irene."

Irene's POV

We as we were celebrating the fact that Jimin was finally brave enough to ask Seulgi out, Taehyung said he still had a question to ask me. My heart began to hammer in my chest as I anticipated his question. He took a deep breath and looked at me in the eyes.

" Do you have a boyfriend? If I ask you out...will you say yes?" he asked, his face turning slightly red as he blurted each question out. I stared at him, a feeling of joy and happiness spreading through my body.

" Couldn't you have been a little more original with the way you asked me?" I said, teasing him slightly. He looked away, pouting.

" I was going to ask you today too, but Jimin just decided to ask Seulgi first. It was me who thought of getting to know each other better. So will you won't date me?" he explained, his words coming out in jumbles at a time. A small smile graced my lips as I watched him.

" Let's date Taehyung," I said, my cheeks slightly heating up.

" It's fine if you say no. I'll come up with- what did you just say?" he asked, a confused look in his face.

" I'm not repeating it again," I whisper, looking away from him as his box shaped smile appeared.

" Watching these two make me feel so lonely," Namjoon says, looking at the pair in envy. " Seulgi, please take care of Jimin and Irene...good luck with Taehyung. You'll need it."

Taehyung glared at Namjoon while the rest of the table laughed.

" We wish you guys happiness and hope that your relationship goes well," Seokjin says, causing cheers and applause to erupt at the table.
