Jimin's POV:

As I stopped at the red light, jogging in place to keep up my momentum, I thought about my upcoming path. I had this crosswalk, then it was down the street, take a right, then keep going for two blocks then a right and to the park. The morning was a refreshing 70 degrees; just cool enough to keep me from building up too much heat, but just warm enough that I didn't need an extra jacket. 

Green.

I ran across the striped white lines and continued my routine jog. 

Jungkook's POV:

I yawn softly as I flip on the lights and start up all of the espresso machines and mini ovens.

I log into to the cash register and wait about 5 minutes before turning the sign to open, then I walk back behind the counter to make myself a coffee. I snap on a lid and walk back to a seat by the window.

I'm just about to settle in when about a block and a half up the street I see a boy with orange hair.

He was gorgeous...

I watch him smile as he pauses to answer his phone, and I'm mesmerized. Without even thinking I grab out a black sharpie from my apron pocket and rush to the counter, writing down a small note. 

I turn to see him put away his phone and take a deep breath, getting ready to jog some more. 

My heart is racing as I hurry to scribble down a few words and take the coffee outside. 

"Wait, what do I say?" I asked myself. Shit. "No...no aish! I can't I'm too scared."

Frantically I look around me, deciding that the only thing I can do is set the coffee out on one of the tables and hope he sees the note. 

Jimin's POV:

I answer the phone, smiling at the sound of Tae's sleepy voice. He's my best friend.

"Morning sleeping beauty!" I say as loud as possible into the phone.

"Aish! ah!..." I hear him groan. "Yah! Jimin you should know better than to scream into the ear of a hungover person."

"Yeah well, you puked on my shoes last night so..."

"Yeah, yeah anyways what time are you going in to work today-"

I listen but stop as my eyes suddenly catch a dark haired figure coming out of a small cafe. He's holding a cup of something hot and a piece of paper. He's so pretty...his dark hair and slim face.

"Yah! Are you even listening to me?!" Tae yells from the other end of the line. 

"O-oh sorry Tae, I was just...never mind. Anyways I'll be going to work soon, I should be back by 6 or so." I listen to his warbling as I watch the boy some more. "Yeah...okay...yup...cya." I hang up and watch the dark haired beauty scamper back inside quickly.

I feel my feet move before I even think through what I'm doing. 

I jog up to his cafe and look inside. By now it's full of customers, and the boy is no where to be found. 

"Aish...just my luck. Find a cute boy and then realize he's only apart of my imagination." 

I sigh and shake my head in disappointment as I walk backward, looking at the whole shop when something catches my attention. 

"What?" I ask in disbelief.

Jungkook's POV:

My heart pounds wildly in my chest as he walks toward my gift for him. 

Oh please...please take it. 

I try to help as many people as I can in a hurry to clear some space for me to see him better. 

"Here you go....yup have a good day....Enjoy....Yes, what can I do for you?...Is that a double shot?...Iced or hot?...Of course....Thank you...Enjoy..." One by one I get them taken care of with my coworker.

Finally I see a break in between the customers and look through the crowd desperately.

He picks up the note and reads, his eyes widening slightly, then he looks around. His eyes go back to the paper, flipping it open and closed, looking at the back and the front. He picks up the coffee and suddenly looks up through the window, right at me.

I gasp and suddenly duck behind the counter. My heart is about to explode, but somehow I find it in me to peer around the side of the counter. 

Jimin's POV:

I'm shocked to read the note.

TO THE BOY WITH ORANGE HAIR,
you look really good today.

I read it over and over again. Me? ME?? He wrote this for me? Did he see me watching him earlier? Aish that's so embarrassing...

I check the note all over for his number but there isn't one to be found.

Should I go get it from him? Maybe he was just trying to be nice? But then...what if this is for a different guy with orange hair? I check around me to make sure, but it's pretty clear that I'm the only one. 

I bite hard on my lip to stop myself from smiling like an idiot, but I can feel myself start to go red and my stomach tightens...he makes me so giddy and I've never even met him before. 

  I look up at the cafe once more to find his beautiful brown eyes starring right into mine and I have to look away very quickly. Suddenly my phone buzzes.

"Yobuseyo?...yes...I'll be in to work in about 10 minutes. Don't worry  I won't be late." I look back one last time to see him peeking around the corner. I smile sweetly and resume my jog. Damn! I really wanted to talk to him...

Jungkook's POV:

I grab my chest as I feel my heart stop. His smile is so beautiful...who is he?
