     he's already sweaty and tired by the time jimin comes. older smiles fondly as jungkook immediately starts walks towards him, wanting to hug him. jimin puts a finger on his chest, stops him. "you're wet." jimin makes a sour face and jungkook gasps dramatically, holds his chest.

     "so rude," he fake cries and turns around, getting to his position again. jimin shakes his head, starts the music and stares as jungkook dances. he is getting so much and jimin can't be more proud.

     after jungkook is done with one complete round, he sits in front to the mirror, breathing heavily. jimin walks to him. "you're getting so much better," he smiles, leans to kiss his forehead. it's been a tradition since first time jimin did it. jungkook melts everytime older's lips touch his skin, it's loving and soothes him, gets him rid of the fatigue he's going through.

     "yeah?" he hums, looks up to see jimin smiling. he's been smiling a lot lately and jungkook loves it. jimin nods, sits beside him.

     "when are we going to get your song babe?" jimin asks, tilts his head to rest it on jungkook's shoulder. "i'm getting tired of this instrumental version."

     "it's ready. only a few touch ups left," jungkook pauses, smirks. "i have the not so final version. although i'm―"

     "not going to show me. i know," jimin rolls his eyes. "you love to torture me." the boy huffs in dramatical anger.

     "i want it to be special. i want you to come to my debut stage. you will, right?" jungkook asks, hope and a want of promise in his eyes.

     jimin smiles, nods. "of course i will."

     jungkook doesn't has to work, his company has told him so, jimin too but he still wants to. he wants to until his pictures are out and he can't anymore. these days have been difficult for him. he's been training for an year now and used to this life of his. working in starbucks and training at the same time. but now he's going to step into a new part of life and won't be able to look back again. he's going to miss this.

     jungkook is lost in thoughts when he gets the call. it's an unknown number but he somehow picks it up because there are no orders at the moment. "hello?"

     "hey," the deep voice says. "i'm taehyung. jimin's friend."

     jungkook furrows, "yeah i remember the name." he's confused.

     "i'd like to meet jimin's boyfriend," taehyung says, his voice doesn't sound angry but he has the authority. jungkook somehow doesn't like it.

     "uh, sure. i'm jungkook by the way," he gulps before speaking again. "when would you like to meet?"

     "today?"

     "i work in starbucks sinsa-dong until 6. you can come here if you want," jungkook suggests. he's nervous and he doesn't know why. he has a hunch though.

     he has never had any friend of his boyfriend or girlfriend talk to him. it makes him uneasy, scared. moreover, when it's jimin because jungkook hasn't been very honest with the male and also, because for once he's actually serious for someone.
