Close to Heaven

Mistake?

Jimin's POV

I was so nervous. I was helping her organize her room when I realized what folding her clothes entitled me to do. I almost chickened out before remembering Jae Eun was out, and I couldn't just leave her box of undergarments for her to take care without seeming weird. I didn't really understand why I was nervous. She was just another girl. 

All girls wore bras and underwear. I tried to keep that thought in my head as I folded them, but I felt skittish and shaky. "Thank you for doing this," she said. I put the easiest look on my face that I could and looked up at her. 

"No problem." Looking at her, I realized she was just as nervous as I was. Her cheeks were a little too pink and her eyes a little too wide. I smiled. She was cute when she was nervous.

Mi Sun's POV

Thankfully, the experience wasn't as awkward as I thought it was going to be. We talked some more, and his easy attitude kept the atmosphere light. When he finished, he made some rice and green tea. I said I wanted real food, but he wouldn't let me. "Doctor's orders," he said. I rolled my eyes, grinning.

"Crazy, huh?" Jimin said. We had finished eating, and I sat in my wheelchair looking out the window. "What do you mean?" "It's just, it's crazy that you had a tumor, but it's suddenly gone, and everything's okay." He explained, looking at me intensely. 

"Yeah, I was thinking the same thing. Now that I'm healthy, I want to live life the best I can. I know it sounds cheesy, but after I've been waiting for death for so long, I'm ready to do something." I said, returning his gaze. He nodded. He wasn't wearing contacts, and his dark eyes bored into mine. 

He reached a hand up and brushed a stray hair out of my face. My breath caught. I felt dizzy, but wonderful at the same time. His hand lingered on my cheek for longer than it should have. This can't be happening. Not to me, I thought. Jimin, a famous idol, and my crush couldn't be touching me. But he was. He was real, and so was his touch. As I had been trying to understand the situation in my head, I hadn't realized just how close Jimin had gotten. 

When I came to my senses, he was less than two inches away. His lips were slightly parted, his eyes heavy and inviting. He moved closer, his hand curling around my neck. His lips brushed mine, before moving in hungrily. I forgot to breathe. My eyes closed as his soft lips caressed mine warmly. His tongue tentatively pushed past my lips. Suddenly he froze, and then pulled away. He dropped his hand from my face and averted his gaze to the floor. 

"I'm sorry Mi Sun, that wasn't right." I didn't know what to say. Because it had certainly felt right. I tried to speak but only stutters came out. I couldn't believe what had just happened. I wouldn't believe what had just happened. I wouldn't believe that Park Jimin had just kissed me. There was no way that had just happened. 

And yet, I could clearly recall the feeling of his soft lips on mine. Jimin was quiet as he stared at the floor, his hands clasped conservatively in his lap. "Jimin," I whispered. His gaze nervously snapped up to meet mine. "Are you sure that wasn't right?"
