no particular POV ~
Jimin let his head rest on the window, looking out, he was paying attention to nothing and everything simultaneously. He thought that perhaps keeping himself distracted would stop him from texting Sara immediately, and say something stupid like it was lovely meeting her?
It was a fun day?
He couldnt help but notice she had a lovely smile?
Good night?
See you soon?
"Well, that was ... odd." said Jungkook, interrupting his chain of thoughts. "ARMY can be pretty strange, right? haha."
"Not only ARMY. Jimin seemed to be acting strange too." Yoongi chuckled to himself. "You got her number didn't you?" He looked at Jimin, looking both amused and curious. Jimin still didn't respond, pretending not to hear. "let's go on a night trip...~~" Yoongi joked, before taking another sip of his, now cold, coffee. "You were all over her. It was somewhat cute."
"I was NOT all over her?! She just seemed cool, that's all. Now let me rest, my heard hurts..." Jimin retorted, his eyes staring out of the window still. He reminded himself not be rude, Yoongi was his hyung after all.
"Alright, grumpy." Jungkook admitted. "No need to cry~" He teased, in hope of lightening up the mood.
"Jimin-ah, you said she seemed cool? She looked distressed in my opinion." Namjoon suggested, before continuing to read his book "I feel quite bad for her."
Jimin was annoyed.
Why is it any of their business?! I asked for her number, not for her hand in marriage!
He thought.
Meanwhile, Taehyung was listening attentively. He felt sorry for Jimin, he knew how awkward this must feel for him. However, he didn't say anything, because knowing Jimin's temper, he knew it would only make things worse. So he waited before approaching him.
~~
The boys had arrived, they were back at their hotel. One by one they hopped off the coach, eager to get out, but not Taehyung. He purposely got off right after Jimin.
"Hey, Jimin!" Taehyung called for him, half quiet, so only Jimin would hear. Before catching up with his pace. "Talk to me."
Jimin immediately knew what he meant. And truthfully? He was grateful. As much as me wanted to avoid it, he knew that talking to Taehyung would help clear his thoughts. It always does.
Jimin turned to face Taehyung, who was smiling at him knowingly. He beamed back, "What more can I say? Something tells me you know it all already," He joked. They entered the building and were approaching the lift. They were behind everyone else.
"I'm assuming you like this girl, am I right?" Taehyung inquired playfully. "But you're not quite sure how to go about it since you haven't shown interest in any girl in the last, year? Or so?"
"Yah!" Jimin laughed, before he hit Taehyung on the shoulder. "Don't say it like that!"
"C'monnnn, you know you can tell me. I'm curious. Who is this girl that's shaking Jimin's heart? ~~" He teased.
"If I'm completely honest, I don't know the exact reason why I'm so intrigued by her." Jimin began. They entered the lift. "First I thought it was just because she was pretty. But then I thought, maybe its because she doesn't know me?"
"Doesn't know you? Didn't you just-"
"I mean, she doesn't know about BTS. She doesn't already know what my favourite colour is. Or what my favourite show is. Or the lyrics to every song. Or the dance to every song. Because I would have to teach her. I would have to tell her and show her who I am. And that's something I rarely get to do. As much as I adore my fans, they've already determined their love for me. But her, I want her to fall in love me because I'm Park Jimin and not Park Jimin from BTS. And there was something so heartwarming about that, I guess. Ahh, I don't know what I'm saying ..." he trailed off, brushing his hair back and out of his face. His cheeks now a light shade of pink, he was embarrassed. But reassured, now that he'd said it out loud.
Taehyung responded almost immediately. They were now walking across the hallway in which their suites were.
"Wow ... that was something." He chuckled lightly, "And yes, of course I understand. You can't help but wonder what it would be like to date someone who grows to love you because you are Park Jimin, the loving and kind Park Jimin I should add, and not the KPOP singer and dancer Park Jimin. All very understandable, in a way." He beamed at Jimin reassuringly.
"But don't let your fame be a barrier. In future, learn to love just because. The perfect person might not always be someone who is oblivious to your fame, you know? They can still learn about the real you, if you let them. And there is always a beauty in that."
"Thanks Tae, I actually feel much better about it now." Jimin welcomed his advice. "Do you think I should text her, tonight? Or is that too forward?" They reach Jimin's suite.
"Maybe not yet, text her tomorrow. Ask if she's okay after whatever happened between her and those girls." Taehyung assured. "Hey! Don't stress it! Anyway, I'm sure she found you cute, everyone does." He winked jokingly, before waving a small goodbye. "I'll see you tomorrow, yeah? Sleep well."
"And you!" Jimin replied, before entering his room and falling into his bed.
Are you thinking of me too Sara? He thought, before grabbing his phone out of his pocket, and staring at her number saved on his phone.
I hope you are, because I can't seem to get you out of my head.
Hope you enjoyed this as much as I enjoyed writing it! Also hope that you guys learned more about the characters now. More plot in the next chapter!!
