(FLUFF X READER) Birthday Worth Celebrating

What could be worse than a Monday morning filled with stressful classes, a hundred assignments due in, and a late bus? Why, a Tuesday evening at your part-time job might just top it off.

Being a college student, it was hard to find a source of income to buy your own necessities (take out food and clothes are definitely necessities, okay!). So, whilst you knew you should be grateful for the well paying job you'd managed to land, you couldn't help but count down the hours until the end of your shift each time.

After sighing once more, realising it was only 5:30, your co-worker Yoongi bumped your shoulder with his. "What's gotten your panties in a twist?" he chuckled, handing you another plate to wash. Being the two cleaners/occasional waiters in a restaurant wasn't the worst job to have, but it could often be very demanding. "I just... I'm so tired with school and work... I just want to nap forever" you chuckled, pulling a grin out of Yoongi.

"Join the club, kid. I have to work on my goddamn birthday" he sighed. "Oh, your birthday is today?" you asked with clear shock in your voice, Yoongi nearly chuckled at your surprised expression. "Nah, nah. Don't worry" he shook his head, "It's Friday". Making a mental note of the date, your mind began swarming with thoughts like fluttery butterflies; wondering what you should get him. Just a card? Money? Chocolate? You'd never considered yourself particularly close with Yoongi, but he certainly deserved more than just a mundane card from you.

"Ah... I'm not working Friday, maybe... I-I could cover your shift instead?" you asked timidly, not wanting to come off weirdly. "That's okay, but it'll suck not having you here to keep me company..." an instinctive sigh rolled off his tongue, and for a moment you thought your cheeks were going to blush at the implicit compliment.

You cleared your throat a little before replying; "Well... I'll certainly stop by to give you your gift, it's the least i can do" before being immediately waved off by the (slightly) taller man. "You don't need to get me a gift, your presence is enough" he grinned greasily, giving you a once over before winking almost comically. "You look like you just got shampoo in your eyes, silly" you laughed; more so attempting to stop your cheeks from reddening.

And so, when you had arrived promptly to start your shift the next evening, you focused on trying to pry it out of Yoongi; what was it that he wanted for his birthday? You knew you should've been paying more attention to the work you were doing rather than the impending thoughts of your co-worker, but everyone makes mistakes, right? Surely enough, merely 10 minutes into your shift, you'd managed to drop a handful of neatly wrapped cutlery that were supposed to be delivered to the empty tables outside.

"Dammit" you cursed, gathering up the splayed knives and forks. "You're such a clutz, Y/N" none other than Yoongi chuckled, squatting down to help you. "I've got this, it's alright" you said with a hint of embarrassment; you were always dropping things in the kitchen. "Well, here" he handed you the items he'd gathered, you bowed in appreciation. "So... about your birthday" you began, hiding a small grin.

"What about it?" he asked rather bluntly - even for Yoongi. "U-uh, I was just wondering if there was anything you liked... I have to get you something" he glanced over as you shyly looked away, rearranging the cutlery. "You don't have to, my family don't bother anymore, my friends are probably busy... just a card will do" he shrugged, squeezing your heart to the point of ache.

"But... everyone deserves something on their birthday" you said sadly, unable to hide the slight disappointment on your face. Yoongi noticed this almost instantly, straightening himself upright before tugging on your hands. "You see, Y/N, when I was younger... my parents didn't really have the money to spend on gifts or parties. But, every year without fault, they'd always buy me my favourite candy bar and a kumamon plushie, even when i was like... 14!" he laughed softly before continuing.
