Author note:

I wrote this story for my best friend/sister.  I want to Korea around April/May of 2017 so I'm writing with what I remembered and experience...in a way (no I didn't have spicy dates with Jimin but I did go to the places I mention)

~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*

Nervously I picked at the metal around my wrist. A habit I recently picked up on. My eyes flicked from the Airplane window to the walkway where people were still trying to find their seats then back to my timer.

It was my first time flying and I'm smart enough to decide to fly halfway across the world to add to it. My attention was pulled away when a silver-haired man flopped into the empty seat next to me. Shoving my shaking hand farther into my lap. my frantic eyes snapped to the window again when I felt the plane roared to life.

"First time flying," an accident covered voice asked next to me. Pulling my eyes away to look into his deep brown eyes. I nodded not trusting my voice.

"Jimin" he simply said sticking out his hand.

"Avalon" I replayed quickly wiping my clammy hand on my jeans before slipping my shaking hand into his confident one. Smiling a little he let go of my hand as he asked.

"So what made you decide to make your first flight one almost across the world?"

"My sister recently moved to Korea and I wanted to go see her" I let out a nervous laugh. To be honest I was hoping to sleep the whole flight. I even took sleeping pills before boarding but small talk never hurt anyone. "What about you?"

"Going home. I came here to write an article on Seventeen American tours" he answered running his hand throw his silver hair as he leaning back in his chair. A small smug smile was pulling at his lips before he started playing with the tv screen in front of him.

Nodding I looked back down at my timer. "0017d 07h 39m 23s" it read. I tried to calm my racing heart with the knowledge in 17 days I'll meet my soulmate. Which sadly didn't help. Without much thought, my eyes drifted to Jimin's clothed wrist hoping to get a glimpse of his timer.

"Have you heard of Chim Chim?" Jimin asked without looking at me.

"No why?" I question pulling my eyes away from is clothed wrist. The smug smile that once touched his lips was replaced with disbelief.

"You haven't? I don't know if I should be hurt or not" he muttered.

Before I could ask anything else the flight began to shake violently as the flight attendance demonstrated the safety poster. I poured my full attention onto them not wanting to miss anything if something did happen to the plane.

Before I knew it I was in the air and my arms hurt from how tightly I was holding onto my armrest.

"Here," Jimin said holding a water bottle out to me. Looking at him and the bottle he continued.

"You look like you might need it" he was right I regret not buying a water bottle before boarding but in my defense, $4 for water is outraging.

Thanking him I took a quick drink trying my best to not drink from the lip part which was difficult from the light shaking of the plane. Thanking him again I handed it back. Saying nothing more he pulled out his laptop and set to work. Taking his cue I pulled out my own book and plunged myself into the world of Sarah Dessen lock and key.

A light shaking paired with a voice whispering my name pull me out of my sleep. Sitting up the first thing I noticed was that the food was placed in front of me. Jimin pulled my attention to him as he said.
