Part 13

"And..?" she asked obviously excited

I said yes   |   I don't wanna tell you

"Omg! I'm so happy, Jimin! Your first boyfriend!"

Is not a big deal, mom   |   I really like him

"I know that, it's obvious. Your eyes get all sparkly when you talk about him. It's a bit late for him to come now but, why don't you invite him over for dinner tomorrow?"

That's so lame   |   Really? Thank you!

"Anything for my Jimin" she said smiling gently while ruffling my hair

I never got to experience something like this in real life. My parents weren't with me anymore and to be honest I've never been interested in anyone.. romantically speaking.
So, even though all this makes me feel happy, is like the universe is playing its biggest joke on me. Not only my mom isn't real, but the boy i like doesn't exist..

I started to feel uncomfortable at my own thoughts "I should go check on Namjoon"
I paused the game and went downstairs, he was watching a movie.

"Hey"

"Oh, hey. I thought you were playing"

"I was, i'm just taking a break" i sat next to him
"So.. I talked to Jin.."

He sighed "what did he say?"

"Not much. I thought you guys were a thing"

"Listen.. he seems like a great guy but, i'm not sure it'd work out"

"Do you rather date a woman?"

"Is not that..
what happened yesterday.."

He was struggling with his own thoughts, even I could see that

"You know how my life is. I barely have any time for myself and truth is, I really liked him"

A smile showed on his face "He's really competitive, and proud, and handsome..
but, when you guys were passed out and we got to know each other a little better.."

Namjoon and I never had any conversation like this, and he looked so mesmerized as he talked about Jin..

"He's so fun and sweet. I think i'd just screw it up, and I don't wanna do that"

"Joonnie, what did you tell him?"

"I told him I wasn't ready for a relationship"

I groaned and smacked his head

"Ouch!" he flinched "I deserved that, didn't I?
I just, like him so much. I think I could really fall for him"

"How would you know?
What's it like, to fall in love?"

He thought for a second before answering
"I think it is.. when you can't stop thinking about that person. When you miss them and just wanna run to their arms, and hug them and kiss them and spending time without them becomes painful.. and then you stop caring about anything else"

He paused, and honestly I stopped listening, I was just sitting there, staring into space

"I should go see him" he stood up and walked to the door "thank you, Minnie"

He left and closed the door and I still wouldn't move
Something had just become clear as water to me...

I was falling for Taehyung
