BTS Imagines and Preferences

Fish Cakes (Jin)

A/N: Ah! Just hit 100 reads! While half of those are probably me and my best friend, I just want to thank everyone who has read. It really means a lot to me. I hope you enjoy reading my imagines as much as I enjoy writing them. =)

"You named them after fish cakes?" you asked, laughing. It didn't surprise you. Your boyfriend, Kim Seokjin, was known for his love of food. 

"I don't know, it just fit," he said, shrugging as he pulled the car into the driveway of the apartment he shared with the rest of his band members. 

"It's cute," you said. "I can't wait to meet them." 

"Well, unfortunately, it will have to wait until I get back from the studio. They need me to re-record some vocals and I won't be back until tonight. Sugar gliders are nocturnal anyway." 

You frowned a bit, upset your boyfriend couldn't spend more time with you, but understanding. You were friends with the other members and trusted you wouldn't be bored until he got back. 

"The sugar gliders are still adjusting so don't bother them until I get back," he said. "I know you wouldn't do anything purposely, but they are very sensitive." 

"Jin oppa," you said. "I won't hurt them, I promise." 

He smiled and kissed you from the driver's seat. When you pulled away, he closed the door and drove back down the driveway towards the studio.

"Jungkook-ah!" 

The boy smiled mischievously as he beat you on Mario Kart for the third time. You put the controller down, done playing. 

Jungkook set his down too, slightly disappointed you were done. 

"Have you met the sugar gliders yet?" you asked. 

"Yes! They are so cute. Jin hyung hasn't showed them to you yet?" 

You shook your head. "He was going to today, but he had to record some vocals at the studio. He said he will tonight." 

"I'll show them to you!" Jungkook said, a proud smile crossing his face. "I help Jin hyung feed them. I'll make sure you handle them properly." 

"Jin oppa told me not mess with them until he's back," you said, slightly hesitant, however, the offer was extremely tempting. 

"Nothing will happen," Jungkook said. "They're sleeping right now anyway." 

"All right," you said.

The two of you entered Jin and Yoongi's room where the sugar gliders were housed. You and Jungkook approached the cage carefully, making sure not to disturb them too much. 

Jungkook carefully opened the door. As he'd promised, the two gliders were sleeping inside the cage, hardly aware of your presence. 

"They're so cute!"

Jungkook smiled. He reached into the cage and scooped up one of the sleeping gliders, the little marsupial opened his eyes and immediately began to climb into Kookie's sleeve. 

"Ah," he said, laughing slightly, as he attempted retrieve the cheeky glider. "They're quick." 

You helped Kookie roll up his sleeve, eventually revealing the glider looking back at you with its large black eyes. You couldn't help but feel your heart melt slightly. 

"Let's put it back. I don't want to risk anything happening." 

Jungkook nodded and grasped the the glider gently and set back in the cage, closing the door. 

"Wait, Kookie, weren't there two of them?" 

"Yeah, you have to get two of them because they get really sad without a companion." 

"Jungkook-ah, that's not what I meant," you said, pointing down to the cage. The other sugar glider was gone.

Your stomach turned as you heard Jin's car pull into the driveway. You and the boys had pulled apart the apartment in search of the missing glider, but to no avail. You felt tears threatening to fall already at the thought of having to tell your boyfriend. 

When Jin walked into the mess of an apartment and your tears already falling he knew something was wrong. 

"Jin oppa, I'm sorry. Me and Kookie, we went to see the gliders, and one of them escaped, and..." You were full on sobbing at this point, your words masked. 

You felt him walk past you, only just glancing the redness that'd made its way to his face.

You and Jin spent another hour tearing his room and the more accessible parts of the apartment apart. You tried to contain your tears, but found it hard. Jin barely looked at you as he tore up the room. 

You were surprised he hadn't broken up with you immediately. Jin wasn't a demanding boyfriend, he never told you what to do, but the one time it mattered, you didn't listen. 

There was no use in apologizing more than you did. You simply continued to look, the hope of finding the glider safe was beginning to leave you.

You and Jin were just about to give up for the night--hoping the glider hadn't gotten anywhere too dangerous--and resume the search in the morning; when Yoongi walked in the door cradling one of his sweatshirts in his hand. 

"I found him," he said. "He must've clung onto it at some point when I came back for it while I was working." 

The glider was sleeping soundly in the hood of Yoongi's sweatshirt. You felt relief flood your body as looked down at the little form. 

"Odengie!" Jin exclaimed, scooping up the glider. 

He stroked the glider before carefully placing it back in its cage with its companion who greeted its friend happily.

"I really am sorry, Oppa," you said. "I should've listened to you." 

"Ah, it's okay, Jagi, everything turned out all right."

Jin pulled you into his chest and lightly kissed your forehead. 

"Now, come on, let's go watch a movie. I brought home some fish cakes."
